题文

An older friend once gave me a piece of advice, “Enjoy the last few weeks of college,” she said, “since college is the best time of your life.” This was not the first time I’d heard such a statement, but with graduation fast coming clo, her words especially struck me. It emed a bit disappointing to reach one's life peak at only 22 years of age, but in her opinion, college had been one of the best times in my life so far. I made friends, took class, and learned a great deal about mylf. But I was also excited for the time after college—moving to a new city, starting a new job, and becoming a "real" person. I hoped that my great dreams were practical. Then, last week I read a column in Real Simple Magazine called 100 Years of Attitude, in which women 100 years or older shared their life experiences and views. I noticed that none of them considered college as the "best" time of their life. Not all of them went to college, but still in most cas their teens and twenties were not the best times of their life. They said some of their favorite times were raising their children, traveling after retirement, and even enjoying their prent time and age. Enjoying one's prent time and age was a clear theme of the interviews. A piece of advice given by the women was about the importance of making the best of all situations. I think it more accurate than that of my friend; I can say with certainty that if I am lucky enough to make it to 100, I refu to spend the last 80 years of my life plummeting (跌落) downhill, or even leveling off. I am sure that our eagerness and devotion will make us college students live a meaningful life. We will not just look backwards or miss our college days. We will look forward in excitement about continued journey uphill. 小题1:Which of the following opinions does the writer agree with?A．College is the best time of one’s life.B．Twenties were the best time of the old people.C．One should make the best of all situations.D．One should not look backwards at their college time.小题2:In the cond paragraph, the writer wants to say ______.A．her achievements in college would be the peak of her successB．she is looking forward to living as a “real” person in collegeC．she becomes more and more uneasy with graduationD．she is satisfied with the college life but is hopeful for the future小题3:The column the writer read is mainly about tho old women’s ______.A．best time of life at youthB．life experiences and viewsC．different opinions about lifeD．favorite time with best friends小题4:By saying “I refu to spend the last 80 years of my life plummeting downhill, or even leveling off” (in Paragraph 4), the writer really means ______.A．she will not spend the rest of her time at collegeB．she will not just obtain a college level certificateC．she will not be satisfied with what she has already accomplishedD．she will not be content with the life in the future 题型：未知难度：其他题型

解析

作者的一个朋友告诉作者要好好享受大学的最后几周时间，因为大学是最美好的时光。作者更期待大学毕业后的生活。作者在报纸上了解到百岁老人的人生阅历和人生态度，作者认为，作为即将毕业的大学生，未来之路会充满激情，毕业后的人生会更有意义。小题1:根据倒数第二段“A piece of advice given by the women was about the importance of making the best of all situations. I think it more accurate than that of my friend;”可知，作者更认可的是，充分利用好人生的每一个阶段，活在当下，故选C。小题2:根据“college had been one of the best times in my life so far...But I was also excited for the time after college—moving to a new city, starting a new job, and becoming a "real" person.”可知，作者认为大学是生命中最美好的时光之一，他更期待毕业后的生活。故选D。小题3:根据“in which women 100 years or older shared their life experiences and views”可知，这个专栏讲的是百岁老人的生活经历和她们对于人生的观点，故选B。小题4:I refu to spend the last 80 years of my life plummeting (跌落) downhill, or even leveling off.如果能活到100岁，作者不甘心自己的后80年走下坡路或停滞不前。作者不满足于目前所取得的成绩，leveling off稳定，故选C。
