Question

【題目】Looking back on my younger days , I find 【1】 rather ironic（諷刺的）how much of my life I spent listening to Pink Floyd , whose famous song Time is specifically about not sitting around and 【2】 ( let ) life pass you by .

But , like many high school and college students , I 【3】 (waste) a lot of my time in the short-and long-term . I slept late on Saturdays and lost hours hanging out with friends .

In the long-term , I also had no idea about what 【4】 (achieve) were supposed to be made , so I drifted through the easiest college courses , never really pushing myself to do better . It wasn’t until I was around 25 【5】 I realized I’d missed a large amount of my life 【6】 absolutely no reason .

What I realized is that nothing just 【7】 (simple) comes along . Life is what you make of it . If you’re unhappy with something in your life , there is nothing stopping you from making moves 【8】 (change) it .

If I were able to go back in time and visit my 【9】 (young) self , first I would get the beer can out of his hand and tell him to read more . Then , I would tell him to , as the famous 【10】 (say) from Andy Dufresne in Shawshank Redemption goes , “ get busy living , or get busy dying . ”

【解析】這篇文章主要講了作者對自己以前浪費時間，沒有認真讀書，非常的后悔。

【1】考查形式賓語。how much of my life I spent listening to Pink Floyd是真正的賓語，所以應該用形式賓語，用it。

【2】考查固定結構。and連接兩個并列結構，sitting用的v+ing形式，所以橫線上也應該用v+ing形式，填letting。

【3】考查時態(tài)。表示發(fā)生在過去的事情，用一般過去時，所以填wasted。

【4】考查名詞。作句子主語，用名詞，填achievements。

【5】考查強調句。It wasn’t until I was around 25 ___5___ I realized I’d missed a large amount of my life ___6___ absolutely no reason .是一個強調句，用that。

【6】考查固定短語。for no reason無緣無故，是固定短語，所以填for。

【7】考查副詞。修飾動詞短語comes along，用副詞，填simply。

【8】考查不定式。表示目的“為了改變”，所以用不定式，填to change。

【9】考查形容詞比較級。我如果能回到過去，看看更年輕的自己，所以用比較級，填younger。

【10】考查名詞。正如著名的諺語所說。saying諺語，所以填saying。
