Question

【题目】Looking back on my younger days , I find 【1】 rather ironic（讽刺的）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 . ”

【10】saying

【解析】这篇文章主要讲了作者对自己以前浪费时间，没有认真读书，非常的后悔。

【1】考查形式宾语。how much of my life I spent listening to Pink Floyd是真正的宾语，所以应该用形式宾语，用it。

【2】考查固定结构。and连接两个并列结构，sitting用的v+ing形式，所以横线上也应该用v+ing形式，填letting。

【3】考查时态。表示发生在过去的事情，用一般过去时，所以填wasted。

【4】考查名词。作句子主语，用名词，填achievements。

【5】考查强调句。It wasn’t until I was around 25 ___5___ I realized I’d missed a large amount of my life ___6___ absolutely no reason .是一个强调句，用that。

【6】考查固定短语。for no reason无缘无故，是固定短语，所以填for。

【7】考查副词。修饰动词短语comes along，用副词，填simply。

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

【9】考查形容词比较级。我如果能回到过去，看看更年轻的自己，所以用比较级，填younger。

【10】考查名词。正如著名的谚语所说。saying谚语，所以填saying。
