【1】句意:在这本书里有一个关于英国的介绍。introduce介绍,是一个动词。空前an是不定冠词,修饰可数名词单数,因此这里应填名词形式。introduction名词,介绍。
【2】句意:上个学期他有时候旷课。absence缺席,不在,是一个名词。句中使用的短语是be absent from缺席...,absent是形容词形式,在was后面作表语。
【3】句意:我决定和我的父母一起去国外。decide决定,是一个动词。空前a是不定冠词,修饰可数名词单数,这里应填名词decision。make a decision是固定短语,做决定。
【4】句意:她的害羞使她害怕在公共场合说话。shy害羞的,是一个形容词。空前Her是形容词性物主代词,后面修饰名词。shyness害羞,是名词形式。
【5】句意:和你的父母讨论一下你的问题是很有帮助的。help帮助,可以做动词或者名词。句中使用的句型是It is+形容词+to do sth.做某事是...的,因此这里应填形容词形式。helpful有帮助的,形容词。
【题目】Yu Minhong, president of New Oriental Education, shared his ideas with the young after the English speech competition of the 14th China Daily. Here is some of his advice to young people:
“One suggestion I’d like to give you is that it’s important to do what you like without fear of failure. And the process(过程)of working toward your dreams matters more than the results. Young people should take chances to show off talents. Take competitions like this one as an example: If you are afraid to fail, you’ll never get the chance to stand on the stage and make a speech. Above all, it’s most important to take part.
Another suggestion I want to give you is to read books. It is not easy to keep reading every day. For me, it is much more difficult and challenging to keep reading and taking notes every day than it is to walk 10,000 steps.”
In his speech, Yu also shared his view on life. He chose a different life rather than a more successful one. He uses the famous lines of American poet Robert Frost (1874–1963) to make his point:“Two roads diverged (分叉) in a wood, and I … took the one less traveled by, and that has made all the difference.”Yu pointed out, “Your happiness should not be what others think you should run after, but instead you should decide what it is. It is you who should make choices for your own life.”
