Question

Although I had left school against the advice of my teachers, I had, without telling anyone, tried to1my studies in literature at evening classes. It was a tiresome2from one end of the city to another and to3among adults was uninteresting. I was the youngest in the4, so the friendship I knew at school was5. I put up with it for a short period. It was6long a walk on cold winter’s nights and it was hard to put my7into Shakespeare with wet shoes and trousers. So I continued writing poetry at home.
By chance, I8some prizes and awards for literature. A young woman from a9company came to the college one day. She told me that I won a national poetry award. I10at her in astonishment and disbelief. She wanted to make a short11about me, to which I said, “ No, I couldn’t do that.” Not that I had any real12. I was just frightened. In the end she13me that I should do it the following day.
So I did. They made a short film of me reading one of my14and I became15interested in literature than ever. I16what I should do after this, and decided some weeks later that I could not17myself spending the rest of my days dealing with machines. So one evening, I hesitatingly told my parents that I wanted to18to school. They were greatly surprised and a little afraid, but they did not try to persuade me not to. They wanted to know if I was19, and if I knew what it meant and20I realized that if I gave up my job training, it would be very difficult to get a good job. But nothing could stop me, and they asked about the matter no further.

1.選C。從下文可知，我在夜校“繼續”學文學。go on后面需接with后再接賓語。
2.選C。該句中it指“從城市的一頭到另一頭上夜校”這件事，所以選job。如果選B或D項，需表達為It was a tiresome journey/walk to go from...。
3.選B。因為是上夜校，所以我“坐”在成人中間。
4.選B。我是“班”里最小的學生。
5.選A。absent表示“不存在的；缺乏的”。因為夜校以成人為主，我與他們的年齡差距使得我上學時的那種友誼不存在了。
6.選A。此處用too表示我有些厭倦。
7.選B。put one’s heart into sth.意為“把整個身心放在某事上；用全部精力去做某事”。mind的使用結構為put one’s mind on sth.。
8.選C。此處用won表示“獲獎”。
9.選A。根據下文“拍短片”可推斷是電視公司。
10.選D。根據語境我在“全國獲獎”“吃驚又不相信”可以推斷，此處用表示“盯著；凝視”的s tared最佳。
11.選B。根據下一段開頭可知，她想為我拍電視短片。
12.選C。既然拒絕，用表示“借口”的excuse比表示“理由”的reason更佳。
13.選D。從下文給我拍攝了短片判斷，她“說服”了我。
14.選A。因為我的詩歌獲獎，所以拍攝時我最可能是讀著一首詩歌。
15.選D。此處表示比較，聯系上下文，我肯定是對文學更感興趣了。
16.選D。wonder表示“不知道；想知道”。
17.選D。imagine doing sth.表示“想象做某事”，myself作spending的邏輯主語。
18.選C。我想“返回”學校上學。
19.選A。父母怕我動搖，想知道我是否“確定”了。
20.選A。表示“是否”的whether引導從句，與前面的if從句并列。
