講述了愛迪生的一個(gè)小故事，告訴我們不要輕視任何人。
1.常識(shí)題。愛迪生是一個(gè)偉大的發(fā)明家。
2.詞義辨析。A很快；B…之后；C后來；稍后；D在...后不久。根據(jù)句意可知：回來愛迪生不得不離開學(xué)校。
3.固定詞組。Teach oneself 自學(xué)。愛迪生離開學(xué)校以后就在家自學(xué)。
4.動(dòng)詞辨析。Ａ忘記；B記得；C完成；D觀察。由句意可知愛迪生忙于實(shí)驗(yàn)幾乎記不得要休息。

6.固定詞組。Have a knowledge of 掌握…;
7.動(dòng)詞辨析。A雇傭；B要求；C制作；D觀察；根據(jù)句意可知愛迪生雇傭這個(gè)年輕人作他的助手。
8.固定詞組。Learn about了解；
9.被動(dòng)語態(tài)。由句意可知愛迪生被告知此事。
10.上下文串聯(lián)。有上下文可知?jiǎng)e人告訴愛迪生那個(gè)年輕人看不起他，但是他什么都沒說。
11.考查時(shí)態(tài)。當(dāng)年輕人走進(jìn)來的時(shí)候，愛迪生正在做實(shí)驗(yàn)。用過去進(jìn)行時(shí)表示在過去某個(gè)時(shí)間正在進(jìn)行正在發(fā)生的事情。
12.上下文串聯(lián)。由上文可知他站在那里，但是卻不幫愛迪生做事。構(gòu)成轉(zhuǎn)折關(guān)系、
13.動(dòng)詞用法。Stop to do sth停下來做某事；stop doing sth停止做某事；bring拿來，take帶走。由句意可知愛迪生正在做實(shí)驗(yàn)，停下來去拿一個(gè)瓶子。

16.詞義辨析。由句意可知他不能在所給的時(shí)間內(nèi)容完成計(jì)算。
17.名詞辨析。由常識(shí)可知要計(jì)算瓶子的體積，用水裝滿，倒出來計(jì)算水的體積就可以了，這樣就非常簡單了。
18.副詞辨析。解析同上。
19.名詞搭配。根據(jù)后面的變紅，可知是臉變紅了。
20.上下文出來。由文章的意思可知，年輕人認(rèn)為愛迪生比他聰明。
