This was Tom’s home. It was 【1】 dark. The sun was dropping down the mountains far away. Little Tom came back home, with tears in his eyes.

“What’s 【2】, Tom? How’s your trip?” his mother asked with a big smile. “I 【3】. The mountain was so high and full of big or small stones on the way. I still went 【4】. But I was tired and it was so late that I had to come back.” Tom cried. “It doesn’t matter. You are only 14 years old after all. You will have another 【5】.” his mother said. “But, standing at the top of the mountain is my dream!” Tom said. His father came over and asked with a caring 【6】, “Did you see the green trees on your way to the mountain?” “Sure and there were a lot of beautiful flowers by the side of the road,” Tom replied. “Did you hear the birds 【7】?” his father asked. “There were many kinds of birds singing in the trees, and the sound was very sweet,” Tom said. “Did you feel the 【8】 of nature?” his father asked. “Yes, the blue sky, the white clouds, the green trees and the colorful flowers made a nice picture,” Tom answered. “That’s enough!” his father smiled and said, “Please remember, my son. For often, achieving what you expect is not the most important thing. Although you didn’t reach the top of the mountain, you have got a lot on the way.”

It is true that not every goal will be 【9】, not every job will end up with a success, and not every dream will come true. The most beautiful scenery(风景) is on the way. The process is more 【10】 than the result.

【解析】

文章大意：本文主要讲了14岁的男孩Tom爬山，他因没有爬到山顶失落而归。然后从父亲和他的对话中，作者告诉我们一个道理：不是每个目标都能完成，不是每份工作都能成功，也不是每一个梦想都能实现，最美的风景是在路上。过程远比结果更有价值。

【1】考查副词。根据下文The sun was dropping down the mountains far away.结合It was __1__ dark.可知，太阳落山了，也就意味着天几乎黑了，nearly几乎、差不多，副词，修饰后面的形容词dark，故答案为nearly。

【2】考查动词的现在分词。根据上文Tom came back home, with tears in his eyes.可知Tom流着泪回来了，因此判断他妈妈要问他怎么了，What’s happening,意为“怎么了”，故答案为happening。

【3】考查动词过去式。根据下文The mountain was so high and full of big or small stones on the way.以及But I was tired and it was so late that I had to come back.可知他并未爬到山顶，因此判断空格处词义为失败，fail失败，动词，句中was为过去式，可知时态为一般过去时，谓语动词用过去式，故答案为failed。

【4】考查副词。根据上文The mountain was so high and full of big or small stones on the way. 可知路上有很多石头，但是Tom没有放弃，继续前行，故判断空格处词义为向前，ahead向前，副词，修饰前面的动词，故答案为ahead。

【5】考查名词。another意为另一个，后跟可数名词单数，结合上文t doesn’t matter. You are only 14 years old after all.可知妈妈在安慰Tom，毕竟他只有14岁，以后还会有机会的，故判断空格处词义为“机会”，故答案为chance。

【6】考查名词。caring为形容词，修饰名词，结合句意，他爸爸走过来用关切的___问道："你在去山上的路上看到绿树了吗？"结合选词，判断空格处词义为“表情、脸色”，express是动词，这里用其名词expression，故答案为expression。

【7】考查动名词。hear构成动词的固定搭配，hear ...doing听到，结合句意，你听到鸟儿___了吗？结合选词，判断空格处词义为“唱歌”，sing唱，这里用其ing形式，故答案为singing。

【8】考查名词，the后跟名词，结合句意，你感受到自然的____了吗？结合选词，判断空格处词义为“美”，beautiful美丽的，形容词，与其对应的名词是beauty美、美丽，故答案为beauty。

【9】考查动词的过去分词，主语为every goal，判断本句为被动语态，结合句意，事实是不是每一个目标都能____，结合选词，判断空格处词义为“实现、完成”，be后跟动词的过去分词构成被动语态的谓语动词，achieve实现，动词，其过去分词是achieved，故答案为achieved。

【10】考查形容词，结合上文，The most beautiful scenery（风景） is on the way.可知路边的风景最美，结合句意，过程比结果更____，结合选词，判断空格处词义为“有价值的”，value价值，名词，这里是用形容词的比较级形式，valuable有价值的，形容词，more valuable更有价值的，故答案为valuable。
