【解析】

這是一篇記敘文。主要講述一位經(jīng)理招聘了一位男孩來(lái)辦公室?guī)兔�。雖然男孩子沒(méi)有推薦信，但是經(jīng)理覺(jué)得他的言行舉行顯示出他很細(xì)心，受過(guò)良好的教育，很有禮貌，并且舉止得體；他覺(jué)得這些品質(zhì)比真正的推薦信更有說(shuō)服力。

【1】句意：一位經(jīng)理曾經(jīng)打廣告招聘一位可以在他辦公室?guī)兔Φ娜�，有接近五十個(gè)人申請(qǐng)了職位。

根據(jù)nearly可知people前面用基數(shù)詞，用fifty表示“接近五十個(gè)人”。故答案為fifty。

【2】句意：在很短的時(shí)間內(nèi)，他從所有的人中，選擇了一個(gè)男孩，然后其他人被遣散。

根據(jù)“From all these people”可知一個(gè)男孩被選中而其他人被送走，用動(dòng)詞send，the others和send之間是被動(dòng)關(guān)系，用were sent away。故答案為sent。

【3】句意：他沒(méi)有一封推薦信。

此處用介詞with him表示伴隨狀語(yǔ)。故答案為with。

【4】句意：他說(shuō)：“你錯(cuò)了，他有很多�！�

根據(jù)“He had not a single recommendation”和“You are mistaken”可知此處表達(dá)他覺(jué)得那個(gè)男孩有很多推薦many letters of recommendation。recommendation前文已經(jīng)提到，可以省略。故答案為many。

【5】句意：他進(jìn)來(lái)的時(shí)候摘下了自己的帽子，禮貌地回答了我的問(wèn)題，顯示出他受過(guò)良好的教育。

“answered my questions”后面用副詞修飾，根據(jù)“showing that he was well-educated”可知此處表示他回答問(wèn)題有禮貌，用polite的副詞politely。故答案為politely。

【6】句意：我把書(shū)故意放在地上，其他人都踩過(guò)去或者把它推到一邊，但是他把書(shū)撿起來(lái)放在桌上，顯示出他很細(xì)心。

此處表示那個(gè)男孩和其他人的行為的對(duì)比，用連詞while連接，表示“而”。故答案為while。

【7】句意：我把書(shū)故意放在地上，其他人都踩過(guò)去或者把它推到一邊，但是他把書(shū)撿起來(lái)放在桌上，顯示出他很細(xì)心。

根據(jù)“He lifted up the book which I had purposely laid on the floor, and placed it on the table”可知那個(gè)男孩子很細(xì)心，用care的形容詞形式careful。故答案為careful。

【8】句意：他等著輪到他自己，而不是把別人推到一邊，顯示出他有好的禮儀。

根據(jù)“he waited quickly for his turn, instead of pushing the others aside”可知他的行為很好，用名詞manners。故答案為manners。

【9】句意：當(dāng)他寫(xiě)自己的名字的時(shí)候，我注意到他的手指指甲很干凈，沒(méi)有鋼筆印。

根據(jù)“he”可知此處指的是那個(gè)男孩寫(xiě)他的名字，he變成物主代詞his。故答案為his。

【10】句意：我用眼睛看了十分鐘，看到男孩子身上體現(xiàn)的東西可以稱之為推薦信，比帶過(guò)來(lái)的準(zhǔn)備充分的實(shí)際的推薦信更有價(jià)值。

by后面用名詞或動(dòng)名詞；此處表示通過(guò)眼睛識(shí)別，用use的動(dòng)名詞using。故答案為using。

選詞填空題做題方法如下：①讀句子，了解大意。先易后難，根據(jù)句子的大意先選擇一部分詞。例如第一句根據(jù)句意很容易找到和基數(shù)詞fifty有關(guān)；第三句根據(jù)句意很容易找到和介詞with有關(guān)。②再讀一遍，判斷詞性。要注意句子前后的關(guān)系，判斷句子缺少什么成分或是何種詞性。例如第五題根據(jù)前面的動(dòng)詞可以判斷缺少副詞；第六題根據(jù)前后句子結(jié)構(gòu)可以缺少連詞；第八題根據(jù)good可知缺少名詞，第十題根據(jù)by可以判斷缺少動(dòng)名詞。③選擇合適的單詞填寫(xiě)。注意檢查單詞形式的變化是否正確。例如第二題需要變成send的被動(dòng)形式were sent；第五題需要用polite的副詞形式politely。
