As graduation day approached, excitement increased. Being out of high school meant I was finally coming of age. Soon I would be on my own, making my own decisions, doing what I wanted without someone looking over my shoulder and it meant going to school with boys—a welcome change coming from an all-girl high school. There was never any question in my mind that I would go to a college away from home.
My mother’s idea, on the other hand, was just the opposite. Trying her best not to force her preferences on me, she would subtly ask whether I had considered particular schools—all of which happened to be located in or near my hometown of Chicago.
Then panic set in. My feelings took a 180-degree turn. I really didn’t want to leave high school at all, and it was questionable whether I wanted to grow up after all. It had been nice being respected as a senior by the underclass students for the past year; I didn’t enjoy the idea of being on the bottom rung of the ladder again.
Despite months of expectation, nothing could have prepared me for the impact of the actual day. As the familiar melody(旋律) of “Pomp and Circumstance” echoed(回声) in the background, I looked around at the other figures in white caps and gowns as we seriously lined into the hall. Tears welled up uncontrollably in my eyes, and I was consumed by a rush of sadness. As if in a daze(恍惚), I rose from my seat when I heard my name called and slowly crossed the stage to receive my diploma. As I reached out my hand, I knew that I was reaching not just for a piece of paper but for a brand-new life. Exciting as the future of a new life seemed, it wasn’t easy saying good-bye to the old one—the familiar faces, the familiar routine. I would even miss that chemistry class I wasn’t particularly fond of and the long travel each day between home and school that I hated. Good or bad, it was what I knew.
Although going back is impossible, it’s comforting to know I can revisit my special memories any time.

A. did not care very much which college her daughter went to

【56题详解】
句意：咨询师在如何帮助孩子解决问题、做决定和维护自己方面接受过特殊培训。根据“problems”以及单词首字母可知是指解决问题，solve“解决”，是动词。help sb do sth“帮助某人做某事”，为固定短语。故填(s)olve。

七、完成句子（2分×5题 =10分)
61. 他到巴黎是办公事还是游玩去了?
Has he gone to Paris ___________ or for pleasure?
【答案】on business
【解析】
【详解】on business出差，办公事，是一个固定短语。
62. 由于他的儿子被送进监狱，他感到羞愧。
He felt ________ because his son ________ ________ to ________.
【答案】 ①. ashamed ②. was ③. sent ④. prison
【解析】
【详解】对照中英文可知，缺少“羞愧”“被送”“监狱”的翻译。①处前是系动词felt，所以空处应用形容词作表语，主语是“He”，指人，“（人）羞愧的”对应的英文是“ashamed”，故①处填ashamed；“被送”是被动语态，结构为“主语+be done (过去分词)+其他”，根据前面的动词“felt”可知，时态应为一般过去时，该空前的主语“his son”是第三人称单数，所以be要变为was，“送”对应的英文是“send”，其过去分词是“sent”，故②处填was，③处填sent；“监狱”对应的英文是“prison”，故④处填prison。故填ashamed；was；sent；prison。
63. 我想知道你为什么对这样的事情感兴趣。
I ________ ________ ________ have ________ in such things.
【答案】 ①. wonder ②. why ③. you ④. interest
【解析】
【详解】由句子结构可知，这是一个宾语从句，wonder“想知道”，是主句的动词，陈述事实用一般现在时，动词用原形，宾语从句的引导词是why“为什么”，主语是you，对……感兴趣“have interest in sth”，固定短语，故填wonder；why；you；interest。
64. 我太粗心了！我把手机留在出租车上了。我再一次让我妈妈失望。
________ I was! I left my cellphone in the taxi. I ________ my mother ________ again.
【答案】 ①. How careless ②. let ③. down
【解析】
【详解】根据“我太粗心了！”可知该句应用感叹句。be动词was后接形容词作表语。“粗心”是形容词careless，因此应用how来引导感叹句，位于句首，首字母要大写，因此第一空应填How careless；“让……失望”是动词短语let sb down，句子应用一般现在时，主语为I，谓语动词应用原形。故填How careless；let；down。
65. 这个男孩总是诱使别人为他买食物。
The boy always ________ ________ ________ ________ food for him.
【答案】 ①. tricks ②. others ③. to ④. buy
【解析】
【详解】根据中英文句子可知填“诱使某人做某事”。主语the boy第三人称，谓语动词用三单；trick sb to do sth“诱使某人做某事”，others”其他人”，buy“买”，故填tricks；others；to；buy。
