I had good grades, and I was friendly and helpful．And my biggest 44 was the faith I had．I would not allow my 45 appearance to hold me back from putting my best foot forward．That evening, I 46 my election plans a whole year in advance． I realized that girls would have to get to know me and recognize that I had the ability to 47 them．I loved making friends and I liked being helpful, 48 I decided that perhaps I could use these qualities to work to my advantage．In order to learn how to present a great election 49 , I also attended a course on effective public speaking． The day after the election, when the principal announced I won the second highest number of votes, the students 50 That joy on the faces of all my friends showed me that my victory was 51 theirs． Suddenly, I realized that I had 52 much more than I had dreamed of．I had made many new friends and had helped people 53 the way．I had won the 54 and love of my school-mates and they knew me as somebody who would stand by them．I was able to put a smile on their faces and 55 their day． 小题1: A．admired B．remembered C．praised D．believed 小题2: A．praying B．planning C．calculating D．judging 小题3: A．assessed B．provided C．meant D．took 小题4: A．concerned B．depressed C．surprised D．confused 小题5: A．gradually B．immediately C．suddenly D．impatiently 小题6: A．pay B．enter C．speak D．wait 小题7: A．competitors B．companions C．enemies D．schoolmates 小题8: A．cases B．methods C．examples D．points 小题9: A．problem B．strength C．worry D．dream 小题10: A．young B．personal C．special D．plain 小题11: A．began B．discussed C．announced D．cancelled 小题12: A．recommend B．accompany C．represent D．support 小题13: A．but B．and C．so D．or 小题14: A．campaign B．speech C．ceremony D．promise 小题15: A．nodded B．gathered C．cheered D．cried 小题16: A．only B．still C．almost D．also 小题17: A．accomplished B．accumulated C．devoted D．developed 小题18: A．by B．to C．in D．along 小题19: A．appointment B．acceptance C．election D．reputation 小题20: A．enrich B．bless C．brighten D．expand
