解析：

(1)	通過翻譯，可以判斷小女孩訓練很刻苦，故選train訓練。
(2)	通過翻譯，根據(jù)前后句意思可以判斷出為因果邏輯，故選since表因為。
(3)	通過翻譯，可知小女孩經(jīng)�？粗赜盎蛘邿o法判斷物體的遠近，而guess猜、assume假定、predict預測均無此意，tell可以表示辨別出、判斷出、說出的意思，如It's hard to tell whois who 很難辨別出誰是誰。
(4)	通過翻譯，可知媽媽注意到小女孩膽量很大，無所畏懼，所以選noticed注意到。
(5)	通過翻譯，可知小女孩視力不好，無法很好的看東西，所以選well
(6)	體操本身屬于運動，且下文重復出現(xiàn)過do the sport。
(7)	通過翻譯，可知對于小女孩來說，學習體操肯定和其他同學不一樣，因為她的眼睛問題。而boring無聊、enjoyable享受、unsatisfactory不滿意均意思不合理。
(8)	通過翻譯，可知此處應該填小女孩的病癥，talent才華、quality素質、nature天性都不合適，而condition可以有health condition身體健康狀況，所以選condition，且上文明確提過這個病是一個rare condition。
(9)	通過翻譯，可知對于小女孩最大的難處、最大的挑戰(zhàn)就是平衡木。
(10)	通過翻譯，可知小女好的意思是“你要相信你的直覺或你的心靈，它可以把你帶到你想要去的地方”，且全文結尾的“just believe yourself”也是很好的復現(xiàn)。
(11)	通過翻譯，可知想要成為頂級的體操選手，必須勇敢，大多數(shù)人可能最害怕的就是平衡木，因為平衡木只有四寸寬。根據(jù)brave可以推出fearful。
(12)	通過翻譯，可知小女好沒有掉下來，而fall off意為“從…掉下來”。
(13)	通過翻譯，可知小女孩不想自己因為眼睛不好的原因而得到區(qū)別于隊友的不同對待。greet問候、served服務、paid付、花，意思均不符合。
(14)	通過翻譯，可以裁判們不知道小女孩的視力有問題。pain痛苦、stress壓力、injury身體受損，視力不能痛苦、不能壓力，視力軟性的看不見摸不著的東西，不是身體的部分，不能選injury，而problem可以泛指一般的所有的問題，所以選D。
(15)	通過翻譯，可知全文體現(xiàn)的是小女孩積極的態(tài)度，所以選positive積極的。
(16)	通過翻譯，可知小女孩不想退出，她現(xiàn)在的水平是7，最高級別是10，而她的目標是9。所以選quit。
(17)	通過翻譯，選goal目標，表示她想要達到的程度。
(18)	通過翻譯，可知小女孩想要在她長大的時候成為一名體操教練，把她的所學傳授給其他孩子們。before在…之前、until直到，均意思不對，as可以表示“當”，但強調(diào)伴隨，翻譯成“隨著”，后面往往跟進行時態(tài)，而句子意思是“當她長大的時候”，所以選when。
(19)	通過翻譯，可以輕松選出proud of驕傲自豪。
(20)	通過翻譯，可知小女孩給大家的建議就是“相信自己就好”，所以選advice。
