【解析】

试题分析：短文大意：这篇短文作者主要介绍了自己参加学生会主席的选举失败后，加入了杰夫的团队继续发挥自己作用的故事。从而告诉我们，只有对其他人的生活产生影响才是对自己真正的奖励。

【1】B考查动词及语境理解。句意：我真的认为你应该当选。Heard听见；chosen选，选择；invited邀请； followed跟随。联系上下文Jeff was the last candidate(候选人)for president of Student Council给出the last candidate(候选人) ，可知下文对应的动词应该是 be chosen，所以选B。

【2】A考查形容词及语境理解。句意：我给了他一个礼貌的“恭喜”。Polite有礼貌的；loud大声的；warm温暖的；cheerful欢乐的，高兴的，令人愉快的。由本段出现的第一个形容词usual 来判断作者的感情色彩是平淡的，故排除B. loud和D. cheerful选项，由第二个形容词surprise 来判断，作者与Jeff的关系不是非常亲密所以排除C warm选项，跟Jeff说“祝贺”的时候自然是“礼貌”地说。所以选B。

【3】C考查副词及语境理解。句意：“我，呃，我只是想知道你会……考虑来我的球队工作，”他紧张地说。“你真聪明，你会成为一名了不起的教练。” Proudly自豪地；quickly迅速地；nervously紧张地；regretfully懊悔地，抱歉地。根据前文的“er-，wondering，would...”，可推断是有点紧张，所以选择C。

【4】D考查名词及语境理解。句意：那天晚上，我在考虑杰夫的提议。advice建议；chance机会；message口信，消息；offer提供。考查名词的辨析，Jeff希望“我”能加入他的团队，对“我”来讲，这是给“我”提供了一个工作岗位，并非机会chance，所以选D。

【5】C考查代词及语境理解。句意：也许是选举过程会给予我机会在我们的学校做出重要改变。Them他们；him他；me我；us我们。根据上文主语都是I，可知该选择C。

【6】C考查动词及语境理解。句意：我的目标是创造有吸引力的广告。print印刷；invent发明；create 创作、设计；send发送。根据下句Within a few days, we designed a poster with Jeff's pictures showing him in a number of activities可推知该选C。

【7】D考查介词及语境理解。句意：人们经常经过的走廊里贴满了杰夫的笑脸广告。for为；from 从；with有；without无，没有。最能凸显出 poster 效果的介词是without 否定介词与前面的no 相呼应，双重否定表肯定，所以选D。

【8】D考查动词及语境理解。句意：我的下一步是弄清楚学生想在我们学校开展什么新的活动。carry out 实施； try out 尝试；work out 解决； find out 找出事实真相。结合上文wanted a chess club and a volleyball team和下文的 collect information，空后是宾语从句：“学生在学校里喜欢玩那些活动”，不是“算出，执行，实验”，而是“找出，弄明白”，所以选 D。

【9】A考查动词及语境理解。句意：校长同意添加这些活动到我们学校计划。agreed 同意；wanted 想； expected期待； asked问，要求。根据上文With the information I had collected, Jeff met with the headmaster 可知杰夫带着这些信息去见校长，校长也就“同意”把这些活动加上了，所以选A。

【10】B考查动词及语境理解。句意：在我的帮助下，杰夫和我们的想法被学校接受。allowed允许； received收到，接受； introduced介绍；required要求。 根据句意结合语境可知该选B。

【11】A考查名词及语境理解。句意：听到这些话，我的心中感到自豪和满足。pride自豪；surprise 惊奇；patience耐心；hope希望。我和杰夫的工作得到了他人的认可，心中当然感到自豪和满足，所以选择A。

【12】D考查名词及语境理解。句意：他成为最受欢迎的候选人，我是他的成功的一大部分。luck 幸运；spirit精神；life生活；success成功。前文说他成了最受欢迎的候选人，接着有连词and，也就意味着要填的空即是He became the most popular candidate，这样看来，是杰夫的成功，所以选D。
