Answer 1

【答案】g；b；e；c；f
【解析】本文讲述的是大学教育是无价的，但是许多人却因为错误原因而上大学。
①G考查上下文理解题。根据空前的priceless和空后的factors以及题干中的reasons判断，此处应与前文是转折关系，并引出下文。故选G项。
②B 考查上下文理解题。根据该段前的主题是Becauseall your friends are going因为你所有的朋友都去上了。此处是该段的句尾，根据前文朋友都去上大学了，你没有去，他们就会怀疑你怎么了。可知选B。
③E考查上下文理解题。根据空前的家中everyone都去上大学，当然你也不例外，多年来他们都认为你也应该去。故选E项。
④C考查上下文理解题。根据下文的Youdon’t have an alternative plan. Everyone else is doing it (see above)你无可选择。其他的人都这样做。故选C。
⑤F考查上下文理解题。根据空前的两句话都是长辈们都在后悔没有上大学，他们提醒你也会后悔自己不去上大学的决定。故选F。
