【解析】

试题分析：本文讲述了一个天生残疾的女孩Nicole Kelly克服困难参加比赛的故事。她经过三天比赛，成为爱荷华州小姐，将去亚特兰大州参加美国小姐比赛。Kelly将要演讲的题目是关于克服残疾的重要性。她说成为明星是一个展示自己的好方法，而且帮助她从残疾的悲伤中走出来。

【1】根据句意：一位23岁的女孩Nicole Kelly一出生就没有左前臂，但是并没有阻止她经过在达文波特的三天比赛，成为爱荷华州小姐。前半句表示她没有左前臂，后半句表示自己成为爱荷华州小姐，前后表示转折关系，应用连词but。stop sb from doing sth“阻止某人做某事”，故此处用介词from。故此处为①but ②from 。

【2】根据音标/kwi:n/可知用queen“女王”；根据音标/k′sept/可知用accept“接受”，故此处为③queen ④accept。

【3】 feel so thankful for “对……很感激”，at every step of the way“在我成长的路上”，who have encouraged me at every step of the way.是定语从句修饰先行词those“那些人”，故此处的意思为：我对那些在我成长路上鼓励我的人很感激。

【4】From swimming to dance“从游泳到跳舞”；there is nothing“没什么”；I would not try“我不愿意尝试”，作为定语从句修饰先行词nothing。故此处为From swimming to dance/dancing, there was nothing I would not try.

【5】根据Kelly will go to Atlantic City to compete for Miss America and she will give a talk about the importance of overcoming (克服) disabilities.可知Kelly演讲的题目是关于克服残疾的重要性，故此处为It’s about the importance of overcoming disabilities.
