小题6:考查形容词。根据from then on I’ve always tried to ……由always可知无论何时（any time）故答案选C。
小题7:考查介词。身上的优点是内在的。所以“在身上”应用in 而不是on (外在的，身上携带的东西，用on)。故选B。
小题8:考查介词短语。根据后文“我总是试图遵循这个原则”可知look for the best in people才能get the best“作为回报”。所以选D。

小题14:考查动词。根据后文的51 I didn’t pursue my dream和前文的regretted it可知作者的祖父说服了作者的父亲学法律。而suggest应是suggest sb. doing sth.（注：许多学生很易选此答案）。故选C。

小题17:考查名词。 wanted to be a biologist只能称为dream，而不是promise（诺言）和belief（信仰）
小题18:考查代词。As it turned out接Go fulfill it（dream），两者中的it 都指开办杂志的梦想。“正如我的梦想所实现的结果那样，我的出版物后来命名为student，一个国家级杂志”故选C。
