心的”。A项“HowIdevelopconfidence”为最好的标题。【语篇解读】本文是一篇夹叙夹议文。作者通过介绍帮助过自己的老师,说明了教师是无价的资源,没有人能取代他们。32.D推理判断题。根据文章第一段的“IdidmostoftheworkIcould,gotthebestgradesIcould,andintheend,Igraduatedfromhighschoolwithhonors.”可知,作者作为学生时是努力的并且非常优秀。33.A推理判断题。根据文章第二段的“butMrsTraineralwayssatwithme,talkedwithme,andhelpedmefeelOKwithoutmymom.Shewasunderstanding,kind,andalwaysmadetheclassroomacomfortableplace.”可知,MrsTrainer像妈妈一样地来帮助作者。34.B细节理解题。根据文章第三段的“MrStonerockalsotaughtmyclassAPAformatwhichtomeisinvaluable.”可知,如何正确使用APA格式是作者从MrStonerock那里学到的最有用的技能。35.C推理判断题。根据文章第一段的“Allmysuccesswasbecauseoftheteacherswhohelpedme,pushedme,andma
