(共10分,每小题2分)从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。有两项为多余选项。
College life can become a great struggle because students have to balance school, a social life, and sometimes a job as well. The following steps could help the grades of college students.
Go to class. Why did your parents pay for your tuition or why are your parents paying their taxes for financial aid? Even when you don't feel like attending class, just go. 1. Many classes have in-class assignments, pop quizzes, and case studies that only could be taken in class. If you are not there, you might lose points.
2. . College is all about multitasking. Planners can really help you to balance homework, due dates and tests. You should try to get your work done early, then you will have less stress.
Be business-like about your education. If you had a job, you would have to go to your job at 9 a.m and stay there until 5 p.m. 3. If you did the same thing in college, you would be great. Go to class, go to the library, study seriously, at 5 p.m put away the books and go home. Once in a while you might have to work late, just like at a real job.
4. .Everyone studies in different ways. Some can study with a lot of noise and others want silence. Some can't even study with music on and some need dead silence. Some like the library and some like to study with friends, or even outside.
5. . Some students start better than they finish. They do that in order to give themselves room to slack near the end of the semester, which can be a mistake. Push yourself to do your best on every assignment. Stay on top of your game and don't lose focus.
A. Stay organized.
B.Maintain 100% effort throughout the semester.
C.You might get participation points, and the professor will also get to know you better.
D. The rest of the day would be your own time.
E. Use your time effectively and efficiently.
F. Find your own best method of studying.
G. Balance work, school and social life.

It was lunchtime and I walked into a small branch bank on the West Side. I had come to 1 a checking account. The only officer on 2 was a fortyish black man, standing 3 a small counter from a young white boy who was wearing a V-necked sweater. I thought I was especially 4 of the boy because he looked more like from a prep school than a 5 in a West Side bank.
The boy continued to 6 my attention because of what happened next. He was holding an open savings-account book and 7 an expression of disappointment. “But I don’t understand. I opened the account myself, so why can’t I 8 any money?” the boy said, his voice breaking.
“I know it is, but those are the rules. I’ve already explained to you that a fourteen-year-old is not 9 to withdraw money without a letter from his parents,” the officer explained patiently.
Suddenly I noticed the 10 had a series of small deposits (存款) and withdraws. Then I questioned the officer, “How do you 11 that? Why did you let him withdraw money before, but not now?” He looked 12 . “Because the tellers were not aware of his age before and now they are. It’s really very 13 .” I turned to the boy with a shrug. “You’re really getting 14 ,” I said. “You ought to get your parents to come here and protest.” The boy looked destroyed. 15 , he put his savings book in a rear-pocket and walked out of the bank.
The officer turned to me. “You know,” he said, “you really shouldn’t have got 16 .” I couldn’t believe what he was saying. “We were 17 this morning that some neighborhood bully has been shaking down (敲诈) this boy for more than a month. The guy was 18 him to take money out every week and hand it over. The poor kid was 19 too scared to tell anyone. Anyway, the police are on the case and they’ll probably make a(n) 20 today.”
“You mean there is no rule about being too young to withdraw money from a savings account?”
“Not that I ever heard of. Now, sir, what can we do for you?”
1. A.make B.open C.buy D.choose
2. A.duty B.board C.display D.business
3. A.on B.after C.over D.across

Recently, I have begun to do rides with a group of guys who ride professionally (老练地). The first day, I finished the ride with great 36 , though I tried hard to keep up with one guy for most the ways. To my 37 , I did a little better the second time.
I decided to work harder to 38 . Yesterday, I 39 so much on my ride that I missed the short route (路线) I usually take; 40 , I stayed on the long route. I had never used this route, so I wasn’t really sure about which 41 I should take. Thankfully, a group of four riders 42 , and I just followed them.
A few minutes later, one of the guys got a flat tire (爆了的轮胎), and, with the help of the others, he had it 43 in about a minute. We all waited there 44 he changed his tire. After we started riding again, I noticed something 45 . The guy at the front would ride 46 for a couple of minutes, then he would move over to the side, 47 his way to the end of the line, and the guy behind him would move into the lead position. The process (过程) would 48 every few minutes. This was a lot easier than riding alone, trying to 49 the first rider. This time I had a great time – and I think it is the 50 I’ve ever gone.
This made me realize how important teamwork is, and the 51 of having a great team. The point is that you don’t have to be at your best 52 . You give it your all for a while, and then you let the guy 53 you do the same. The entire team improves because you don’t have to be the 54 all the time. You get your time to shine, and so does everyone else. You cannot get anywhere – or even make any worthwhile improvement – without a 55 . Who else will stop and help you to change your flat tire?
