3.On the first day of school our professor(56)introduced(introduce) Rose,a little old lady,to us."Why are you in college at such(57)anold age?"I asked later.She jokingly replied,"I'm here to meet a rich husband,get(58)married(marry),have a couple of children,and then retire and travel."At the end of the first term we invited Rose(59)to make(make) a speech to our football team.She cleared her throat and began,"We do not stop playing because we are old;we grow old because we stop playing.(60)When/Ifyou lose your dreams,you will die.There is a huge difference(61)betweengrowing older and growing up.Anybody can grow older.The idea is to grow up by always finding the opportunity.The elderly usually don't have regrets for what they've done,(62)butrather for things they haven't done.The only people(63)who/thatfear death are those with regrets."
At the end of that year Rose finished the college degree.One week after graduation Rose died(64)peacefully(peace) in her sleep.Over two thousand college students attended her funeral(葬礼)to honor the wonderful woman who taught by example that it's(65)nevertoo late to be all you can possibly be.
分析 本文是一篇记叙文,通过讲述自己特殊的大学同学,一位老人获得大学文凭的事情,告诉我们只要是你想做的事,什么时候都不算晚.
解答 56.introduced;考查动词.句意为在开学的第一天,我们的教授介绍了一位小老太太罗丝.事情发生在过去,所以应该用introduce的过去式introduced,故填introduced.
57.an;考查冠词.句意为你为什么在这么一个老的年纪上大学,一个老的年纪,又因为后面的old是以元音开头的字母,故填an.
58.married;考查固定搭配.get married为固定搭配,意为结婚,故填 married.
59.to make;考查固定搭配.invited sb to do sth 为固定搭配,意为邀请某人做某事,故填to make.
60.When/If;考查连词.句意为什么时候,你失去了梦想,你就会死或者如果你失去了梦想,你就会死,When和If均可,故填When/If.
61.between;考查固定搭配.between…and…为固定搭配,意为在…之间,句意为长大与成长之间有很大的不同,故填between.
62.but;考查连词.句意为老年人通常对自己所做的事没有后悔,但是对自己没有做过的事感到后悔,前后两句话之间是转折关系,故填but.
63.who/that;考查定语从句.此处空格出的引导词引导定语从句,且在从句中作主语,句意为唯一害怕死亡的人是那些有悔恨的人.故填who/that.
64.peacefully;考查副词.句意为罗斯在睡梦中安详地死去.应该用副词修饰动词,所以应该用peace的副词形式peacefully修饰动词 died,故填peacefully.
65.never;考查副词.句意为你所能做的一切都不会太晚,表述"从不,都不"这种意思用never,故填never.
