【解析】

试题分析：香港著名主持人Michael Leung给他的儿子写了一封信，这封信不仅对儿童有帮助，对各个年龄的人来说受益匪浅。

1.这封信不仅对儿童有帮助，对各个年龄的人来说受益匪浅。be helpful to sb对…有帮助。故填形容词helpful，有帮助的。

2.下面的内容是从他的信中选的。be chosen from从…中选择。故填介词from，来自。

3.今日你还在浪费着生命，明日会发觉生命已远离你了。waste动词，意为“浪费；未充分利用”。由are知用现在进行时。

4.因此，愈早珍惜生命，你享受生命的日子也愈多。本题考查副词比较级的用法。“the＋比较级…，the＋比较级…”意为“越……，越……”。

5.如果你不努力学习的话，你可能就不会成功。if意为“如果”，引导条件状语从句。

6.尽管很多成功人士没有接受较高的教育。receive动词，意为“收到；得到”，have后用过去分词。

7.我不会要求你供养我下半辈子。my是形容词性物主代词，意为“我的”。

8.你可以要求自己对人好，但不能期待人家对你好。前后两句之间为转折关系，应填转折连词but。

9.我买了将近二十年六合彩，还是一穷二白。twenty years“20年”，year需用复数。

10.我连三奖也没有中过。the third place三等奖。

考点：哲理类阅读。
