On the first day of the sixth grade, I noticed one little girl called Amy on the school bus. “ Don’t 16 her,” warned Lauren, who sat beside me. “or they will make fun of you.”
Amy had many 17 differences － lots of reasons for other kids to make fun of her. Her eyes weren’t straight. Her glasses were an inch thick. And she had really uneven teeth.
Every day 18 we drove to and from school, kids would shout insults(侮辱) at Amy. “God，what a strange face! Stop 19 me!”“Mr. Rolland (the driver)! Amy took off her glasses, and now her eyes are frightening me. 20 her put them back on!” For a while I shouted my 21 of insults, just so I’d fit in. 22 , I didn’t want them to treat me the same way they treated Amy.
But while I was insulting her, my heart 23 for the girl. I could see that the insults were making her look uglier, because she was so 24 and alone. Then I wanted to 25 her. I just didn’t know how to stop my schoolmates － 26 the night of our class roller-skating party.
Our whole class was there, 27 Amy. Amy didn’t know how to skate, but I could see how much she wanted to have 28 like the rest of us. So I skated over to her and took her by the hand. 29 we began the journey together around the skating rink. She just smiled, and every once in a while she would laugh in excitement.
On the school bus the next morning, there was much 30 about Amy and me skating together. But 31 insulted her or me. And they didn’t do that for the rest of the year. I 32 heard from Amy again after the school year. But I’ve always 33 that I changed her life for the better.
She changed my 34 . After being her friend, I no longer tried to impress people by trying to 35 like them. I became myself.

(答案→)C
解析：
【小题1】C 不要“和她说话”，否则同学们会嘲笑你。talk to sb.“和某人交谈”。
【小题1】D 从后文所列“她的眼睛不对称，她的眼镜有一英寸厚，她的牙齿真的很丑陋。”可知，她有很多“身体” 上的不同。physical“身体的”。
【小题1】A 每天当我们驱车骑往学校，孩子们都会侮辱嘲笑艾米。as引导时间状语从句，意为“当……的时候”。
【小题1】B 上帝，多么奇怪的一张脸，不要看我！strange“奇怪的”。
【小题1】A 艾米脱掉了“眼镜”，她的眼睛正在“可怕地”盯着我。要她把眼镜重新戴上。
【小题1】D frightening“可怕地，令人害怕的”。
【小题1】B 一段时间里，为了合群，我也加入了侮辱艾米的行列。因为“毕竟”我不想他们以对待艾米的方式同样对我。after all“毕竟，别忘了”。
【小题1】C 但是当我侮辱她时，我的心疼痛不已。ach“疼痛”。
【小题1】D 我可以看到这些侮辱使她看起来“更加丑陋”，因为她是如此羞愧和孤单。ugly“丑陋”。
【小题1】C 然后，我想为她站出来。stand up for“维护，支持”；再如：Always stand up for your friends.要永远维护朋友的利益。
【小题1】A 我只是不知道如何阻止我的同学直到晚上的溜冰聚会。not...until...“直到……才……”。
【小题1】B 我们全班同学都在那里，包括艾米。艾米不知道该怎么玩滑板的，但我可以看到她有多么喜欢，多么“高兴”，像我们这群人一样。
【小题1】B have fun“玩得高兴”。
【小题1】D 而她只是“微笑着”，每一次都带着激动感激之情。joy“高兴”。
【小题1】C 第二天早上在校车上散布着很多我和艾米一起滑冰的消息。
【小题1】D “但”他们没侮辱我和艾米，那年余下的时间也没有。
【小题1】B 那学年之后我再也没听到艾米的消息。hear from sb.“收到……的信(或电报等)”；
【小题1】A 我总是希望使她的生活变得更好了。Hope“希望”。
【小题1】A life“生活”。她改变了我的生活。
【小题1】C 我不再试图打动人把自己变得和他们一样，我有了自我，我是我自己。act like的意思是“行为像”、“举动像”，相当于英语的 to act in the manner of，它常与人或动物名词连用。like是介词，其后接宾语。
