【4】happily
【5】realized
【6】Instead
【解析】
本文介绍了Andre McDonnell是位公益爱好者，他利用业余时间免费送鞋给无家可归者，迄今，他已经送出五千多双鞋。
【1】句意：安德烈的想法很简单：他通过捐款收集新的或用过的运动鞋。
根据空后“he collected new or gently used sneakers through donations… 他通过捐款收集新的或用过的运动鞋……”可知这是他的想法或打算，结合首字母，可知应当是“idea想法，主意”，后面动词用is，所以应该是单数形式。故填idea。
【2】句意：如果这些鞋子脏，他会首先自己清洗。
根据空后“he will clean them first by himself. 他会首先自己清洗” 结合首字母，可知只有脏的话才会去洗。dirty脏的。故填dirty。
【3】句意：这都开始于三年前，在安德烈和朋友们打篮球的时候。
根据空后“three years ago”及本段最后“there was something more that I could do.”可知三年前他意识到他要做些事情，结合选项应该是“这些都开始于三年前”，并且是过去式。故填started。
【4】句意：他脸上带着微笑，高兴地接过这双鞋。
根据空后“with a smile on his face脸上带着微笑”，结合首字母可知是“高兴地”；空前是“took them”，应该用副词修饰动词，happily高兴地。故填happily。
【5】句意：然后我意识到我应该能做些什么。
根据前面句“As I walked away, I felt the stone under my own feet. 当我走开时，我感觉到我脚下的石头。”作者不穿鞋便想到无鞋子穿的人该有多么痛苦，所以他“意识到应该能做些什么”来帮忙解决问题。结合首字母及本文的时态是过去时，空处应该是意识到realized。故填realized。
【6】句意：相反，我会带他们去餐馆吃饭。
根据空前“I won’t give them money.我不会给他们钱”及空后“I will take them to a restaurant and feed them, 我会带他们去餐馆吃饭。”这明显是不同的两件事，结合道字母应该是“相反instead”，位于句首应该大写。故填Instead。
