【解析】

本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了原先车站的角落都是垃圾,一个小女孩通过每天花十分钟的时间,把车站变成一个充满鲜花树木的花园。

1

句意:车站里到处都是旧瓶子,旧自行车零件以及空的苏打罐。

old旧的;common普通的;cheap便宜的。根据前文“on the same dirty street corner”可知,车站所在那个街角很脏,后文“old bottles”提示那里的瓶子都是旧的。故选A

2

句意:在一个星期五,其中一个孩子看到街角的样子,决定做一些事情。

something某些事;anything任何事;nothing没有事。根据后文描写,周一她回收旧瓶子,周二回收罐子,所以她为车站做了一些事。故选A

3

句意:到了下周一,她带来一个袋子,把旧瓶子收集起来回收利用。

sent送;threw扔;brought带来。根据句意可知孩子用袋子装瓶子,所以是带来袋子。故选C

4

句意:周二,她和她的朋友花十分钟时间捡苏打罐子,把它们放进另一个袋子,方便回收。

picking up捡起;finding out发现;looking after照顾。因为苏打罐子都是在地上的,所以孩子是捡起它们。故选A

5

句意:拐角变干净了。

ugly丑陋;clean干净的;fresh新鲜的。因为小女孩和孩子们把车站的垃圾都捡干净了,所以这个角拐角变干净了。故选B

6

句意:这个拐角看起来好多了,但是仍然很丑。

so所以;even甚至;still仍然。根据上文“It was ugly (难看的)”可知,原先这个拐角很丑,根据横线前后单词“but”和“ugly”,可知虽然变得干净了,但是现在仍然还是丑的。故选C

7

句意:她种下种子,给它们浇水。

touched抚摸;planted种;chose选择。根据后文“浇水”,可知应该先种下种子。故选B

8

句意:同样的,她也给树浇水。

trees树;plants植物;flowers花。根据后文“pretty flowers and healthy trees.”可知,这个车站最后都是花和树,前文已经提过浇花,此处应该是给树浇水。故选A

9

句意:她一天只花了十分钟时间,但是那已经足够了。

so所以;but但是;though虽然。根据句意可知此处含有转折关系,十分钟时间虽然少,但是足够把垃圾堆变成花园。故选B

10

句意:几个月之后,这个车站变成了一个到处是花和树的花园。

with带有,具有,表示伴随;through通过;without没有。此处用with表示“伴随,”含有“带有漂亮鲜花和茂盛树木的花园”的含义。故选A

It meant I had to speak before all the teachers and students of my school!
“Come on, boy.Believe in yourself.You are sure to win.” Then my mother and I talked about many difficult topics.At last I chose the topic “Believe in yourself”.I tried my best to remember all the speech and practiced it over 100 times.With my mother's great love and encouragement(鼓励), I did well in the contest.I could hardly believe my ears when the news came that I had won the first place.I heard the cheers from the teachers and students.Those classmates who once looked down on (瞧不起) me now all said “Congratulations!” to me.My mother hugged me and cried excitedly.
Since then, everything has changed for me.When I do anything, I try to tell myself to be confident and I will do a great job.This is true not only for a person but also for a country.
