Graduated at the age of 90 from the University of Buckingham might invoke(引起)the expression of "late saner, but so a thing is the result of a long process. I left out school at 14 in 1935. My higher education formal began when I was in my 60s, as I had not had a opportunity to study before my retirement. But long before then, first working as a clerk, and then joining the army. I am brought to a broader culture. Thirsty for knowledge can explain the rest As I came Late for my formal higher education, I had always been learning I would advise other to do the same as me and return formal learning after retirement.

Answer 1

【答案】

【解析】作者介绍了自己退休后坚持学习，不断尝试新事物的别样人生。

1. Graduated →Graduating.考查动词形式。此处指人和毕业是主动关系，表示“毕业于”用动词-ing形式，故Graduated →Graduating.

2 .so→such.考查形容词。此处修饰名词a thing，表示这样的事，用such修饰.故so→such.

3.去掉out. 考查动词。leave out遗漏，省去；不考虑。此处指离开学校，后面直接加宾语。故去掉out.

4. formal →formally.考查副词。此处修饰动词began用副词，指正式开始，故formal → formally.

5.a→an.考查冠词。句中名词opportunity开头是元音音标，此处表示一个机会，用an,故a→an.

6.am→was.考查动词时态。此处讲述过去发生的事用一般过去时，故am→was.

7. Thirsty →Thirst.考查名词。此处表示“对知识的渴望”用名词，Thirsty是形容词，故Thirsty →Thirst.

8. As →Though/Although.考查连词。尽管我正式的高等教育比较晚，但我一直在学习。前后句是转折关系，故As →Though/Although.

9. other →others.考查代词。other“其他的”后加名词；others “其他人”，相当于other+ 名词，此处指其他人，故other →others.

10. return后加to.考查动词短语。return 当“返回”时是不及物动词，加to才可再加宾语。return to回到；恢复到。故return后加to.
