阅读下面短文，掌握其大意，然后从各题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。
I was six when I joined my father's fields in Okla. By the time I was eight, I was helping Dad 36 old furniture. He gave me a cent for every nail I 37 out of old boards. I got my first real job, at JM's Restaurant when I was 12. My main responsibilities were 38 tables. At that age, it was 39 going to work and glimpsed at my friends run off to swim or play. I didn't necessarily like work, but I loved what working 40 me to have. Because of my job, I was always the first one to buy something delicious. This made me 41 .
Word that I was trustworthy and hard-working 42 around town. A local clothing store offered me credit despite my young age. I immediately bought an expensive coat and shoes on credit. I was 43 only 65 cents an hour, and I already owed the store keeper $90!
So I learned 44 the danger of easy credit. I paid it off as soon as I could. My first job taught me 45 and brought me a level of personal satisfaction few of my friends had 46 . As my father, who worked three jobs, once told me, “If you understand sacrifice and 47 , there are not many things in life you can't have.” How right he was.

(答案→)D 解析：文章大意：作者小时候所做的工作使他学到的道理。【小题1】D上下文联系根据之前的a cent for every nail I out of old boards. 得知，是每从旧木板上拔出一个钉子给一分钱，因此，是修理家具。【小题2】A 动词和宾语的搭配。根据这个动词和nail以及木板的关系，得知应该是拔出。pull sth. out of:把某物从……拔/拉出来。【小题3】C 常识考查：在餐馆工作，不能扫 sweep 餐桌,不能包装 pack餐桌,不能腾空empty餐桌。empty表示腾空的时候，是指腾空，移走里面的内容。只能用清理，clear餐桌【小题4】C上下文联系。At that age, it was going to work and glimpsed at my friends run off to swim or play. 在那个年龄（8岁），看到我的朋友出去游泳或者去玩，而我要去工作（对我来说）很难。【小题5】A 动词辨析。但是我喜欢工作所让我可以拥有的东西。根据下文的Because of my job, I was always the first one to buy something delicious.由于我的工作，我总是第一个买好吃的的人可知，是工作给我带来的好处。（收获）allow sb. to do sth. 允许某人做某事。B. prefer 宁愿；更喜欢；C和D通常不用于这个结构。【小题6】A 形容词辨析。承接上文，我因此感到自豪。grateful, 感激的 rich, 富裕的，丰富的，hopeful，有希望的，有前途的【小题7】B短语辨析。我勤勉和值得信赖的消息在镇上传开。get around =get round （消息）传开；四处走走；有办法应付；show around:带领…参观；fly around:绕圈飞；飞来飞去；carry around:随身携带。【小题8】D 动词辨析。我每个小时只能赚六毛五分，可是我已经欠了店老板9毛钱。（说明花费远超自己的收入）make money, 赚钱【小题9】 A 副词辨析。句意：因此我学到了放松信贷的危险。greatly副词：很，极大的；非常；在这里修饰learned,说明此事对他的影响。【小题10】B 动词辨析。我的第一份工作教会了我（控制收支的）自控能力和自我满足感。self-development:自我发展；self-criticism:自我批评；self-confidence：自信。【小题11】D 这种从第一份工作中所学到的自控能力和自我满足感，没几个学生经历过的。lost:失去；丢失；improve：改善；提高；变得更好；develop：发展；开发；进步。【小题12】A 名词辨析If you understand sacrifice and , there are not many things in life you can't have.如果你明白了牺牲和责任的话，生活中就没有什么你无法得到的东西。and连接两个名词，这两个名词应该是指同一方面的，sacrifice, 牺牲；奉献；四个词中只有responsibility 跟它匹配。promise: 答应；承诺 independence:独立；自主 ambition:野心；雄心；志向；抱负。
