(51)A passed with me still writing and still occasionally entering contests.It wasn't until my second year in college that I(52)D placed in a poetry contest.That doesn't mean I am great.However,I can say that as a writer I've truly grown.(53)C,especially when it comes to things you truly love,is essential.

点评 完形填空的做题步骤是:根据首句提供的信息,快速阅读文章,从整体感知全文,掌握大意.这是第一遍阅读,读时要跳过空格,不看选项,困难肯定是有的,不懂之处不要停留,力求把注意力集中在文章的主线上.要注意文中的暗示,努力找出关键词.如果是故事性文章,关键词就是时间、地点和人物.抓住了关键词就抓住了故事的线索,进而理解全文.然后根据文章的大意进行第二遍阅读,此时可边阅读边粗选答案,这是为了尽量减少空格,帮助更透彻地理解全文.
