解答 I'm very sorry to have missed the first two lesson this morning．I got up early as usually in the morning，but when I was ready to leave I find my bicycle's front tyre flat．I wanted to take bus or taxi to school，and I didn't have any money with me．I had to look for a place along the street to get my bicycle repairing．Unluckily，there were not any bicycle repair shops was open in the early morning．So I had to walk to school，carrying my bicycle all the way．That's what I was late for school．Please don't worry with my lessons，Mr．Li．I will make up for it and turn to teachers for help if necessary．
详解：
1．lesson改为lessons；考查名词，lesson为可数名词，前面有two修饰，故用复数形式．
2．usually改为usual；考查固定搭配，as usual是固定短语，意为"像往常一样，照例"．
3．find改为found；考查动词的时态，此处讲述过去发生的事情，故用一般过去式．
4．bus前加a；考查冠词，bus为可数名词的单数形式，在文中第一次提到，故前面加a表示泛指．
5．and改为but；考查连词，分析句意可知上下文之间为转折关系，故用连词but．
6．repairing改为repaired；考查固定搭配，get sth done是固定搭配，意为"使某事被做、请别人做某事"．
7．去掉was；考查句子结构，此处去掉was，形容词open在句中作shops的宾语补足语．
8．what改为why；考查名词性从句，分析句意为"这就是我迟到的原因"，故用why引导一个从句作表语．
9．with改为about；考查介词，worry about是固定搭配，意为"担心…"．
10．it改为them；考查人称代词，此处代词指代前面的lessons，故用复数形式them．
点评 短文改错时要注意一下几点：1．快速阅读，整体把握短文大意．2．重视语境以及上下文的关系．3．充分运用基础语言知识找出错误所在．

15．If You Get In，Make College CountAs tuition costs rise，with post-undergraduate （本科毕业后） jobs difficult to find，is higher education worth the cost？
Here is an unfortunate truth：For far too many incoming freshmen，college-any college-is not worth it．Year after year，students fail to get the full value of their tuition．
Many critics blame this cost/value problem on the universities，though each critic might point to a different reason：teachers always think of difficult research，the high costs of athletics，or the popularity of majors that are supposedly not suited to the new job market，to name some of their favorites．
But these are symptoms and not the illness itself．In our experience，the source of the wasted university experience begins with the student．Too often，students make bad choices or，frankly，just not enough great choices．
Too often we meet students who are so exhausted by the business of getting into college that they don't work hard once they arrive-one of the most common wastes of time and tuition．A poorly constructed transcript （成绩单） can be destructive to a student's education．Failure to engage and build professional working relationships with professors in office hours （which may lead to continued study，internships and more） also hurts the student's experience．
Another mistake is failing to make use of the many support networks on today's college campuses．It's almost embarrassing how many good offerings are rolled into each tuition dollar，but most students don't know they exist．
Another common point of failure is filling the schedule with too many extracurricular activities as students once did in high school，rather than getting intensely involved in one or two at most．The same can be said of overburdened course loads．
The final great failure we frequently see is the approach students （and their parents） take to selecting a major and accurately seeing its impact on a future career．University systems are not vocational schools．While critics nowadays complain about the attraction of useless majors-and some do exist-more frequently we see too many students pursue a course of study that is not their strength，simply because it seems to have obvious connections to a potential job after graduation．
Rather than perform poorly in a"practical"major and be of little interest as a future job candidate，we say it is better to major in a subject where a student would do well and master the tools of communication and analysis．Students who choose a unique major should complement （使更具有吸引力） that with some well-chosen skill courses，internships and other co-curricular activities that help with career opportunities after college．
So，is college worth it？It can be．Studies show that college graduates have many advantages-material，social and emotional-that can lead to greater success later in life．
To get the full value out of college，students must be as diligent and creative about getting out of college as they were about getting in．After all，the most beautiful，Olympic saltwater pool does you no good if you don't know how to swim．
