【解析】

試題分析：本文敘述了當我們談話時，要多聽別人說。大多數(shù)時候，讓別人說比理解別人的談話更重要。當他們把要哭訴的都說出來的時候，他們發(fā)現(xiàn)我和他們在一起。因此充滿關愛的聆聽比任何語言都有力量。

1.anything but根本不，絕不。句意：當我們談話時，除了聽他們說，沒有必要做任何事情。

2.根據(jù)Listen to what they're saying.可知此處強調(diào)聽別人說。句意：大多數(shù)時候，讓別人說比理解別人的談話更重要。綜合句意故用important。

3.根據(jù)When I was teaching in a middle school,可知作者是一名教師，此處是指他的學生。句意：當我在一所中學教書時，我的一名學生告訴我。

4.happen to發(fā)生。句意：人們經(jīng)常打斷她，告訴她一些好像發(fā)生在他們身上的事。

5.根據(jù)stopped talking to most people可知她不跟大多數(shù)人說話，因此比較孤獨，此處用形容詞lonely。句意：我不跟大多數(shù)人說話，變得非常孤獨。

6.根據(jù)We connect through listening.可知此處是講listening.句意：當我們聽的時候，他們知道我們在關注他們。

7.根據(jù)I just listen.可知我只是在聽，沒有對向我哭訴的人作出反應。句意：我從來沒有學會對向我哭訴的人做出反應，只是通過聽。

8.根據(jù)I just listen.可知我只是在聽，說明我和他們在一起。句意：當他們把要哭訴的都出來的時候，他們發(fā)現(xiàn)我和他們在一起。

9.go against 違背，反對。句意：由于我小的時候，我總是違背別人叫我做的一切。

10.too +形容詞+to太.......而不能。句意：人們聽別人講，只是因為太害羞而不說話，或者不知道答案。

考點：單詞拼寫。
