13、服它，我们就能实现我们的目标。41. terribly 考查副词。分析句子Just imagine how_1_(terrible) shy I was the moment可知，本句中的terrible在句子中作状语修饰形容词shy，修饰形容词要用副词，故用其副词形式terribly。想象一下有这么多眼睛盯着我时我是多么害羞。故填terribly.42. choice考查名词。句意：我只有一个选择。分析句子I had only one_2_ (choose).可知，本句中的choose作动词had的宾语，因此要用名词形式，故填choice.43. lay考查谓语动词。句意：最难的部分是我口头

14、演讲。分析句子But the hard part _3_(lie) in my oral presentation;可知，本句中的lie，在句中作谓语。本文主要讲述过去的事，用一般过去时，所以用lie的过去时lay.44. the考查冠词。分析句子可知，不允许照着写的稿纸读。上文提到要先写稿子，然后再把它演讲出来。所以本题中的纸是特指我写的稿子，故要用限定词the.45. from考查介词。我不得不凭着记忆在那么多的观众面前把它演讲出来。本句的意思就是把演讲的内容从（from）记忆里拿出来，即凭着记忆。故选from。46. trembling考查宾被。分析句子A real trial bega

15、n when I stood on the platform with my legs_6_ (tremble) and my mind blank.可知，本句是说，当我站在讲台上时，我的腿颤抖，脑子里一片空白。tremble（vi）发抖，with+宾语+宾被。其中leg与tremble二者是主动关系，故用动词的ing形式作宾语来修饰宾语legs。故填trembling47. myself考查反身代词。根据前面由于紧张害怕而腿抖脑子一片空白，所以慢慢地恢复意识（即找回我自己）。所以这儿要用myself。48. it考查固定搭配。句意：我做到了。make it 为固定搭配，意为“达到预定目标，获

16、得成功，做到”。故选it.49. up考查固定搭配。build up为固定搭配，意为“树立，建立”，build up confidence.意为“树立自信心”。从那时起，我不再害怕在观众面前说话。故填up.50. and考查固定句式。句意：克服它，我们就能实现我们的目标。祈使句+and+陈述句，祈使句，+ and + 陈述句: 在这里祈使句相当于if 引导的条件状语从句。Overcome it,and we will be able to achieve our goals=if we overcome it ,we will be able to achieve our goals【点睛】祈
