三、完形填空(共15分,每小题1分)
Angela was an 11-year-old girl. She had a serious disease that affected (影响) her nervous (神经的) system. She was unable to walk or make other 36. The doctors thought that it was 37 for her to get well from this disease and come back to a normal life. They believed that she would have to spend the 38 of her life in a wheelchair. The little girl, 39, did not give up. There, lying in her hospital bed, she would say to anyone who'd listen that she was 40 to be able to walk again some day.
Then Angela was sent to 41 hospital in San Francisco. The doctors there were 42 by her strong will. They did all they could to help her. They taught her to imagine 43 walking while lying in her bed. This gave Angela 44 and something good to do in the long waking hours in her bed. The girl worked as hard as possible. She worked while lying there, 45 that she was moving, moving and moving!
One day, as Angela was doing her best to imagine her 46 moving again, it seemed as if a miracle happened: The bed moved! It began to move 47 the room! She screamed out, "See what I'm doing! Look! Look! I can do it! I moved! I moved!"
Of course, at this very moment 48 else in the hospital was screaming, too, and running 49. People were screaming, things were falling and glass was breaking. Everyone else knew that it was a(n)
50, but they didn't tell that to Angela. She believed that she did it. And now only a few years later, she was back to school. You see, anyone who can shake the Earth can conquer (征服) a little disease, can't they?
