三、完形填空
答案：1-5ABABC 6-10DCBAC 11-15ABBDD
解析：1.根据空后的 because everything she wanted to say to me had to be written on a notepad可知, 她所想要对“我”说的事必须得写在纸上, 所以可知与她交流是困难的(difficult)。funny 滑稽的； simple简单的； interesting有趣的。
2.甚至在她脸上细微的表情变化(change)，“我”都能观察到并读懂。worry担心； pain痛苦； excitement激动。
3.她轻拍了(tapped)一下“我”的肩膀。hit打击；knock敲；strike打击；撞击。
4. “我”告诉她“我”不能给她保证(promise)。disappoint使失望； comfort安慰； trust相信。
5. “我”虽然没给她保证, 但“我”使她相信“我”会一步也不离开她, 所以前后是转折关系(However), 故选C项。 therefore因此； besides此外；furthermore而且。
6.在她通往康复(recovery)的旅程中, “我”会一直陪伴着她。death死亡； success成功；destination目的地。
7.她听了这个后， 给了“我”一个微笑(smile)和一个拥抱。 surprise惊奇；stare凝视；whistle口哨。

12. “我”意识到， 像这样的瞬间，就是“我”为什么(why)早起到医院工作。what代指事物；when代指时间；how代指方式。
13.前文提到了她写给“我”的最后一张便条，所以这里通过她的便条(note)更进一步地证实了“我”的感受。expression 表达；feeling 感觉；treatment 治疗。
14. “我”成了这个女人的康复之路之中重要的(important) —部分。irrelevant不相干的； insignificant无关紧要的；instructive有启发性的。
15.这个职业帮助“我”经历其他领域(fields)的人无法经历的事情。hospital医院；area地区；land陆地。
四、短文填空
答案：is; firmly; skills; prepared; that/which; challenging; a; warmth; what; wonderful
解析：①考查主谓一致。句意：帮助别人是一件好事，因为我们能从中感受到一些快乐。helping others为动名词短语，单数概念，因此谓语动词用单数，另外，这里说的是一个事实，因此用一般现在时。
②考查副词。句意：因此我坚信,参与志愿活动对我们很有益处。believe 为动词，需要副词修饰。
③考查名词。句意：首先,我们能获得很多生活经验,获得帮助那些需要帮助的人的技能。skill指各方面的技能，可数名词，此处应用复数。
④考查形容词。句意：然后,我们能够为未来做好充分准备。get 为系动词，后面跟形容词。
⑤考查关系代词。句意：第三,我们能够获得有助于我们在挑战情况下生活得更好的特殊技能。that/which引导定语从句，修饰先行词skill。
⑥考查形容词。conditions 为名词，需要形容词修饰。challenging 意为“具有挑战性的,困难的”。
⑦考查冠词。句意：并且最后，参与这样一项活动意味着让世界上的每一个人都感受到爱心和温暖的存在。activity为可数名词,此处用单数，读音以元音音素开头,因此填an。
⑧考查名词。句意：见第7题。of为介词,后面跟名词。
⑨考查连词。句意：或许我们能够更多地了解什么是快乐。what引导名词性从句作宾语。
⑩考查形容词。句意：我相信我们能够更多地了解自我,了解我们美好的未来。future为名词，需要形容词修饰。
