【解题导语】 本文主要介绍了Adam Braun建立了一个旨在帮助所有孩子接受教育的组织。
1．to make 解析：考查非谓语动词。句意：它的目标是确保所有的孩子都有机会接受教育。此处用不定式作表语。
2．a 解析：考查冠词。句意：Adam Braun在印度游览时，一个女孩在街上拦住了他，向他要钱。girl为可数名词单数，且此处是第一次提到，故应用不定冠词a。
3．most 解析：考查副词的最高级。句意：他问她在世界上她最想要什么。根据句意及空后的“of all”可知，此处表示“最想要”，故应用副词的最高级形式。
4．reality 解析：考查名词。句意：这个女孩从来没有上过学，这是全世界5 700万孩子的现状。此处定冠词“the”后应跟名词。故用reality，意为“事实，现实”。
5．hers 解析：考查代词。句意：毕业后，Adam Braun从来没有忘记这个女孩和她的问题。介词of后应跟名词性物主代词，表示“她的”，故此处应用hers。
6．to 解析：考查介词。此处考查固定搭配have access to sth.“有机会使用……”，故应用介词to。
7．where 解析：考查定语从句。分析句子结构可知，空处引导定语从句，修饰先行词other places，且在从句中作地点状语，故应用where。
8．actually 解析：考查副词。句意：我们努力确保这个项目不只是孩子们漂亮的图片和视频，还有我们真正地看到课堂上令人惊叹的成果。修饰动词应用副词actually。
9．kids 解析：考查名词的单复数。句意：Braun说，这就是在Pencils of Promise学校的孩子们从一个年级到下个年级进步迅速的原因。根据句意及谓语动词progress可知，此处应用kid的复数形式。
