6.wouldhaverun7.it

8.confidence9.to

10.and5.when

考查关系副词。分析句子结构可知,该句为间隔式定语从句,其先行词为Therealmoment,且定语从句中有主语和宾语,故用when来引导该定语从句。6.wouldhaverun

根据Otherwise要不然的话，可知后面用虚拟语气，“要不然的话我找就跑走了”，故填wouldhaverun。7.it

考查代词。根据上文的“Ifoundmyaudienceapplauding”可知,“我”成功了。故填it。短语makeit意为“成功”。8.confidence

句意：随着我信心的增强。根据句意可知用名词形式，故填confidence。考查动词时态。根据上文的“Imadeit!”以及时间状语“Fromthenon”可知,从那时起,作者在许多人前讲话的恐惧感消失了。故填disappeared。9.to

考查介词。根据语境可知,此处表示“通往成功的最大的困难是我们的恐惧”,故用to或towards。10.and考查连词。该句考查固定句型:祈使句+and+陈述句。故该空填and。【知识拓展】虚拟的条件有时通过某些介词短语来表达.

如：Wedidn’tknowyouwereintroubleatthattime,otherwisewewouldhavegivenyouahand.我们当时不知道你遇到了困难,要不然我们会帮助你的.除了otherwise（否则）以外,能够表示虚拟条件的词和短语还包括：butfor（要不是）、without（没有）or（不然）等等.
