In a few hours he would be flying to France to 1 adifferent life. It was a transitional (过渡的) time in Dani
17、els life. I wanted to 2 him some words of significance. But nothing came from my lips, and this was not the 3 time I had let such moments pass. When Daniel was five, I took him to the bus stop on his first day of kindergarten. He asked, “What is it going to be like, Dad? Can I do it?” Then he walked
18、 4 the steps of the bus and disappeared inside. The bus drove away and I said nothing. A decade later, a similar 5 played itself out. I drove him to college. As I started to leave, I tried to think of something to say to give him 6 and confidence as he started this new stage of life. Again, words 7
19、me. Now, as I stood before him, I thought of those 8 opportunities. How many times have I let such moments 9 ? I dont find a quiet moment to tell him what they have 10 to me. Or what he might 11 to face in the years ahead. Maybe I thought it was not necessary to say anything. What does it matter in
20、the course of a lifetime if a father never tells a son what he really thinks of him? 12 as I stood before Daniel, I knew that it did matter. My father and I loved each other. Yet, I always 13 never hearing him put his 14 into words. Now I could feel my palms sweat and my throat tighten. Why is it so
21、 15 to tell a son something from the heart? My mouth turned dry, and I knew I would be able to get out only a few words clearly. “Daniel,” I said. “If I could have picked, I would have picked you.” Thats all I could say. He hugged me. For a moment, the world 16 , and there were just Daniel and me. H
22、e was saying something, but tears misted my eyes, and I couldnt understand what he was saying. All I was 17 of was the stubble(短须)on his chin as his face pressed 18 mine.

26、一种不同的生活”。因为文章没有说儿子即将开始的生活有多么的好,所以不能用enjoy。句意:几个小时后,他将要飞往法国,并在那个国度体验新的生活。2. 考查动词辨析。leave him some words意思是“给他留几句话”。注意不要受母语的干扰而误选give。句意为:我想送给他几句话,几句能让他受用终身的话。3. 语境化选词。这里要表达的意思是:这已经不是我第一次让这样的时刻白白地过去了。4. 考查名词辨析。由常识可知,上公共汽车要从车门口的台阶走上去,所以要用walk up。句意为:说着,他伤了校车,消失在我的视野里。车开走了,我却什么也没说。5. 考查名词辨析。这里指的是我送别儿子的情
27、景,所以要用scene。sign“符号”,scenery“风景”,sight“景色”。6. 语境化选词。and表示并列,而这几个词中只有courage和confidence属于同一范畴。句意为:我很想说一些鼓励的话语,在他的新生活伊始给他勇气与信心。7. 考查习惯用语。words failed me为固定用法,意思为“我说不出话来”。句意为:但是,我再一次语塞。8. 语境化选词。lost opportunities“失去的机会”。作者想起了自己在应该对儿子说些话的关键场合没有把握机会,而让机会白白地失去。句意为:此时此刻,站在丹尼尔面前,我想起了那些失去的机会。9. 语境化选词。机会失去了,也
28、就是说让哪些宝贵的时刻过去了。last持续;fly飞;remain保留。句意为:究竟多少次,我让这些珍贵的时刻白白溜走?10.考查动词辨析。mean意味着。我找不到一个平静的时刻告诉他这些机会对于我来说意味着什么,或者是在今后的几年里他期待面对什么。11.考查动词辨析。expect“期待”。12.语境化选词。很显然上下文之间是转折关系。所以要用But。句意为:即使意为父亲一辈子都不曾亲口告诉儿子自己对他的看法,那又如何?然而,当我面对丹尼尔的时候,我知道这非常重要。13.考查动词辨析。这里作者由自己和儿子想到了自己和父亲。句意为:我很遗憾从没有听到父亲表达出自己的感情。regret“遗憾”。1
29、4.语境化选词。由语境可知,在这些特殊的场合,父亲想表达出的是自己内心的感情:对孩子的关爱。15.语境化选词。作者很多次想表达出自己的感情,但都没能做到,由此可以看出,要选择hard,意为“困难的”。important重要的;essential必需的;complex复杂的。16.语境化选词。由后面的“and there were just Daniel and me”可知,作者感觉到整个世界似乎都消失了。句意为:那一刻,世界消失了,只剩下我和丹尼尔。change改变;progress进步;advance使前进,提前。17.语境化选词。be aware of意思是“察觉到,意识到,知道”。句意为
30、:当他的脸想我贴过来时,我感觉到了他下巴上的胡子茬。sensitive敏感的;convinced信服的;tired累的。18.考查介词辨析。against“靠在上”。注意这里不是把他的脸放在我的脸上,所以不能选on。19.语境化选词。由前面的描述及下文的“It was nothing”可知“我”当时语无伦次,所以选clumsy(笨拙的,不得体的)。gentle温和的;absurd荒唐的;moving感人的。20.语境化选词。和前面的nothing相对,所以要选择everything。句意为:我对丹尼尔说的那些话空洞无物。然而,它却道出了一切。3、 It was the graduation d

32、dest time of your life. At my inquiry, he answered, Because the students you have gotten to know have to leave. As years went by, my previous confusion about my colleagues words no longer existed. When I came across naughty students, I have had to rethink why I chose to be a teacher. It obviously is
33、nt the money. Once a former computer science student of mine called me, asking me if I wanted to have a change. He was working at Nintendo Corporation. His salary was higher than my current one, though I have more education and have worked for over a decade. With my programming skills, he said he co
34、uld get me hired. I thanked him, but declined his kind offer. A few days before this current graduation, while working on final grades, I found a note a student had slipped in with her homework. She thanked me for being her teacher and said the things she had learned in my classnot about math, but a
35、bout lifewould be things she would remember long after the math skills had faded away. As I finished reading, I remembered why I had become a teacher.

41、ing all kinds of campus activitiesfrom sports, band dancing to juggling and acting to translation, design, publishing, volunteering and camping. You name it. During my freshman (大一学生) year, I tried a lot of activities, from dancing to design to newspapers. Then I found my passion (爱好) in the environ
42、ment and volunteer ism. I joined Greening Princeton and Student Volunteer Council. A year later, Id become the publicity chair and project coordinator (协调员) of these two clubs. Student activities give us a chance to do things we care about and are good at. If we have a good idea, we can put it forwa
43、rd at a meeting, find interested people to form a team, and then apply for funding from the school. We have full control of the project and the ability to make our ideas happen. For example, I came up with the idea of Daylight Dining and was supported by my club Greening Princeton. I wrote a proposal, presented it in front of the college master, and communicated with the head of Dining Services. After a few follow-ups, this project was carried out. One other benefit of extracurricular (课外的) activities is th
