一个9岁男孩上课期间突然尿湿褲子，正当他着急，害怕被人发现而不知所措的时候，同班女孩苏西巧妙地帮助了他。

1. B本句句意应为"他觉得心脏都要停止跳动了"。

2. C   "因为他根本无法想象怎么会发生这种事。"

3. C这里是叙述他当时的想法,是顺势连接而没有转折。

4. A前面说"一旦男孩子们发现了，那么就会……"，所以接下去应该是指他们"无休止"的议论。

5. B speak to sb."跟某人说话"，符合题意； say sth. to sb."对某人说某事"，say后面常接宾语；discuss"讨论";tell"讲，告诉"，均不符合题意。

6. D小男孩开始祷告，自然是把"头"低下去。

7. A根据语境可知小男孩认为在课堂上尿湿裤子是难堪而需要马上处理的"紧急事情"， emergency"紧急情况"，符合题意。

8. C look up from"从……中抬起头"，符合题意。

look down upon"瞧不起";look up to"尊重";look back to"回顾"。

9. C此处是"她的眼神似乎在说……"。say "说";express"(侧重用语言) 表达"；read"看，读";predict"预示"，后三者均不符题意。

10. A前一段提到老师走了过来，所以这里是"当老师朝他走过来的时候"。

11. B苏西想帮小男孩，所以在老师走到小男孩身边时在老师前面(故意) 摔倒。

trip"绊倒";fall"倒下，落下"；drop"降低，扔下"; throw"(朝远处) 扔"。

12. D小男孩身上被水洒到，自然是"生气"。

13. D根据上文，小男孩被水洒到，得到了大家的"同情"。

14. A根据句意应该是当小男孩的裤子在外面晾干时，他就穿老师给他的运动短裤。

15. C on one's hands and knees"手忙脚乱"。

16. A clean up"打扫"。水洒得到处都是，故孩子们都在忙着打扫。

17. B change "改变";turn "转变";transit"运输";transfer"使转变成……；转换到……"，符合题意。

18. D上文提到她摔倒并把水洒到地上和小男孩身上，同学们都在清理地板上的水，而她自然也是想帮忙，所以用"tries"，其他词均不符合题意。

19. B句意为"你惹的麻烦够多了"。

20. C on purpose"故意";with purpose"带有目的"。
