解析试题分析:本文主要是讲我过去是以自我以中心的人,但是两年前,我因为一些事发生的变化,正是这些人这些事让我发生的变化,成就现在的我。
【小题1】B考查连词辨析 since 自从;before在。。之前;or否则;unless除非;根据前文,以前曾是一个以自我为中心的人,但过去两年已经开始改变。因此我已经开始为他人考虑了。为他人考虑就应该在考虑自己之前,故选before。
【小题2】C 考查形容词辨析 famous 著名的;simple简单的;different 不同的;skilled技巧性的;我认为我的变化是开始于就读Palomar大学的时候。用change“变化”,故选C项。
【小题3】D考查名词辨析 education 教育;career事业;tour旅游;change改变 句意:我非常高兴,以为我正变成一个与以前那个以自我为中心的人不一样的人了。根据句意与语境,故选different。
【小题4】C 考查名词辨析 balance平稳;homework家庭作业;degree程度;interest兴趣;句意:起初,我只是想要得到我的学历,所以单独呆着。根据语境与选项分析只能选C项。
【小题5】A 考查动词辨析 talked 谈话;wrote写;lied躺;reported报道;句意:我以为我比其他人都聪明,所以我很少跟班上的人说话。根据语境I thought I was smarter than everyone else,来选A项。

【小题9】D 考查名词辨析 dream 梦想;problem问题;duty责任;step脚步。对我来说,那确实是一个很大的进步。step“步伐,迈步”。此处意为我有了一次很大的迈步。而梦想,问题,责任等其他选项则不合适,所以选D项。
【小题10】C 考查代词辨析。此题辨析并列句和关系从句。根据两句间连词and可知两句关系为并列,故使用人称代词;根据句意:我交了几个新朋友,其中两个至今也是我最好的朋友,所以选C项。
