解析：根据第三段my dad 49 me to go into law. And I’ve 50 regretted it. I wanted to be a biologist, 51 I didn’t pursue my 52.可推测作者接受父亲的要求law，没有追求自己的梦想biologist. 故答案为C.
37.C
解析：根据He never criticized us, but used 38 to bring out our best.“他不是批评我们，而是用表扬显示出我们是最好的”可知他是“特别的”。故选C.
38. A
解析：根据If you pour water on flowers,……及41 time you say something ……及……if I looked for the best 42 people, I would get the best 43.可知“你在别人身上发现最好的，你才能得到最好的”，学会发现和学习别人的优点。所以此处应是praise赞扬。应选A。
39. C
解析：根据作者的父亲说as a child I said something……可知是回想，所以应选C remember
40. B
解析：根据you say something unpleasant about somebody else, it’s a reflection of you可知，说了某人不友好的事情，故选B 项unkind。
41.C
解析：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。
42.B
解析：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。
43.D
解析：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。
44.D
解析：习惯搭配。
45.A
解析：根据下文作者leave to work on my magazine意识到作者下定决心了，并没有象他父亲那样阻止，而是让作者Go fulfill it。可知是understanding理解人的。故选A。
46. A
解析：根据下文the headmaster gave me a choice: stay in school or leave to work on my magazine可知started the magazine占用大量时间。故选A taking up。Make up 构成，组成; pick up捡起，拿起；接收等；keep up维持，保持。
47.D
解析：根据stay in school or leave to work on my magazine中的or 可知是做出选择。故选D。
48. B
解析：此处as“正如，正像”指代前面整句话的内容，引导非限制性定语从句。
49.C
解析：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。
50.A
解析：作者父亲的“一直”后悔，才让作者做自己愿意做的事情。如果不后悔，就不会出现Go fulfill it的结果。故应该肯定得说是后悔的，而其它选项都是否定。所以选A。
51.B
解析：I wanted to be a biologist与后面的didn’t pursue可知是转折，故选B.
52.D
解析：wanted to be a biologist只能称为dream，而不是promise（诺言）和belief（信仰）
53.C
解析：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。
54.B
解析：根据前文作者的dream是start a magazine可知本题应选B。
