Question

  I moved into an empty dormitory for the first time two years ago. 小题1: ________Firstly，I realized that I didn’t know anybody at the school. Secondly，I knew that I wanted to  work hard at my lessons and learn something useful. And thirdly，I wanted to have a good time with new classmates，without my parents around.
The first realization frightened me in the beginning. But that fear quickly disappeared. It was the other two goals that ended up being my difficulties. I knew that it was hard to devote enough time to class and to social efforts .小题2:________I knew this would be a challenge，but I didn’t realize how much until classes began.
I got on well with the other girls who lived in my dorm. Often，instead of finishing my homework before it was due，I went downstairs and had ice cream with my neighbor. 小题3:________ I knew it wasn’t very good and the grade I received showed my lack of effort.
I was aware that I needed to find some sort of balance. So I created a schedule that would divide my time up between going to class，doing homework，and relaxing. It seemed like a good idea，but I was only able to follow it for a few days. 小题4: ________
So I tried another plan. Each week I made a list of everything I had to get done during that week.  Then，under the list of things I had to get done，I made a list of things I could do if I had time. 小题5:________I’m glad that I’ve learned to balance things and it has helped prepare me for what is to come after graduation.

试题分析: 本文介绍了当作者刚刚进入一个新的学习环境时，自己的一些想法和做法。她想和同学们打好交道，想有充分的时间学习，也想参加一些社会活动。当她最初的计划坚持不下去的时候，她又尝试了一个新的计划，终于做到了学习和娱乐的完美结合。
小题1:A考查对上下文的理解和推理判断能力。在下文中作者分别介绍了当她来到宿舍时意识到的三个方面，由此推测这些内容是对A选项I was certain of a few things.的进一步解释说明，故判断A选项内容符合语境，选A。
小题2:B考查对上下文的理解和推理判断能力。上文提到作者意识到在学习和社交方面很难保证充足的时间，而空后内容提到这是一个挑战，由此推测作者想在学习和社交方面都要做好，而B选项内容But I wanted to succeed in both.提到要在这两方面成功，内容符合语境，选B。
小题3:C考查对上下文的理解和推理判断能力。根据上文内容instead of finishing my homework before it was due可知作者在此是介绍自己作业的情况，而C选项内容I always finished it the next day between classes也是关于作业的问题，可以承上启下，故答案选C。
小题4:F考查对上下文的理解和推理判断能力。上文提到自己制定了一个自认为可以把学习娱乐完美结合的安排，但是又不能坚持下去，故判断F选项内容A schedule like that was too much pressure.可以承接上文，选F。
小题5:E考查对上下文的理解和推理判断能力。空前提到自己重新制定了一个计划，而且空后内容表明这项计划很成功，故判断空格内容也是和计划有关，而E选项This is the method I have used since then.内容可以承接上文，引出下文，故答案选E。
