Question

【题目】 There are many things we need to know that we do not learn at school. For example, if we want to use our money wisely, we need to shop carefully. We need to know how to compare the prices of things in different shops .We need to be able to compare the quality of different brands. We need to know how to make a choice when we shop.

Knowing how to make such choices is a “life skill”, and we need these skills if we want to live useful and happy lives. Some of these choices are small. For example, will I take an apple for lunch or a pear? Will I go to school by bus or on foot? Will I wear the red T-shirt or the blue one to the movies? Other choices are more important. For example, will I eat healthy food for lunch or will I eat junk food because it is nicer? Will I work hard in all my classes or will I only work hard in the classes I enjoy? We make choices like this every day.

We have to realize that the choices we make can influence the rest of our lives. Just as importantly, our choices can also affect other people .The next time you decide to waste time in class, play a joke on someone or talk loudly at the movies, think about this, who else does your choice affect?

这篇短文主要介绍了有许多我们在学校学不到，但是需要知道的事情。我们需要做很多选择，有小的事情和大的事情,如果我们做出错误的选择会导致不快乐，我们必须意识到我们所做的选择会影响我们的生活，也会影响其他人。

【1】根据“Knowing how to make such choices is a “life skill”, and we need these skills if we want to live useful and happy lives.”可知，知道如何做出选择，是“生活技能”。故填life。

【2】根据“There are many things we need to know that we do not learn at school.”可知有很多事情我们需要知道，这些事情我们在学校学不到。learn是动词，意为“学习”，be动词后加动词的过去分词表被动，being not learnt/learned in school意为“不能在学校被学到”。故填learnt/learned。

【3】根据“Knowing how to make such choices is a “life skill”, and we need these skills if we want to live useful and happy lives.”可知我们需要的生活技能以及我们做出的选择会使我们的生活有益并且快乐，故填make，使役动词make后接形容词useful and happy形容词作宾语补足语。故填make。
