rigorous

(當我想在某件事上碰碰運氣時，他們提醒我這不是一條安全的路。他們告訴我，選擇一門更rigorous課程或嘗試一項我可能不會成功的活動，都會毀掉我大學錄取的機會)”可知，當這個學生想冒險時，父母會提醒這條路不安全；其父母告誡他：選擇一門更rigorous的課程或嘗試一項自己可能不會成功的活動會毀掉被大學錄取的機會；takingamore

rigorous

course與tryinganactivityImaynotsucceed呼應(yīng)，由此可知，劃線單詞的意思應(yīng)該是“具有挑戰(zhàn)性的”，與Challenging意思一致。故選C項。【5題詳解】推理判斷題。根據(jù)第三段中“Duringmyweekendofinterviews,anotherstudenttoldme,“I’mashamedtoadmitIfailedcalculus(微積分),butIdecidedtotakeitagainandgotaBplus.Iwillstilltakecalculus,andeventhoughIdon’tloveit,I’mgladIpushedthrough!”Iaskedhimwhathelearnedfromtheexperience.“Ilearnedtoletgoofshame,”hesaid.“IrealizedthatIcan’tletagradedefine(定義)mysuccess.Ialsolearnedthatifyouwantanythingeagerly,youcanachieveit.”(在周末的面試中，另一名學生告訴我：‘我很慚愧地承認我的微積分不及格，但我決定再考一次，并獲得了B+。我仍然會學習微積分，盡管我并不喜歡它，但我很高興我堅持了下來!’我問他從這次經(jīng)歷中學到了什么。‘我學會了放下羞恥，’他說。‘我意識到我不能讓分數(shù)定義我的成功。我還學到了，如果你渴望什么，你就能實現(xiàn)它?！?”可知，作者提到的這位學生微積分考試不及格后再考一次獲得了不錯的成績，盡管不喜歡但是還會繼續(xù)學，這位學生還從這次失敗中獲益良多，不僅學會了放下羞恥，還意識到不能讓分數(shù)定義成功以及自己特別渴望的就可以實現(xiàn)；結(jié)合第三段中第三、四句“Theabilitytobouncebackisafundamentallifeskillstudentshavetolearnontheirown.Thelessonsoffailurecan’tbetaughtinaclassroom.(重新振作起來的能力是學生們必須自學的一項基本生活技能。失敗的教訓不能在教室里教授。)”可知，這位學生的例子說明青少年是從自己經(jīng)歷的失敗中來獲得經(jīng)驗教訓以及重新振作起來的能力。故選C項?！?題詳解】推理判斷題。根據(jù)最后一段“IsmiledasIwrotehiswordsdownontheapplicationreviewform.Apparently,hehasthecopingskillstoadjusttocollegelife.Failureisaboutgrowth,learning,overingandmovingon.Let’sallowyoungpeopletofail.Notonlywilltheylearnsomething,itmightevengetthemintocollege!(我微笑著把他的話寫在申請審查表上。顯然，他有適應(yīng)大學生活的應(yīng)對技巧。失敗是成長、學習、克服和繼續(xù)前進的過程。讓我們允許年輕人失敗。他們不僅會學到一些東西，甚至可能會進入大學！)”可知，作者在申請審查表上寫下學生的話時面帶微笑，認為這個學生有適應(yīng)大學生活的應(yīng)對技巧，他從過去失敗中獲得的經(jīng)驗教訓幫助他成長、學習并不斷進步；由此推知，作者認為這個學生會很有發(fā)展前途。故選D項?！?題詳解】主旨大意題。通讀全文，尤其是第一段中“IaskeverystudentapplyingforPitzerCollegethesamequestion,“Whatdoyoulookforwardtothemostincollege?”Iwassurprisedanddelightedwhenastudentreplied,“Thepossibilityoffailure.”(我問每一個申請匹澤學院的學生同樣的問題：‘你在大學里最期待什么?’當一個學生回答：‘失敗的可能性’時，我又驚又喜。)”以及最后一段中“IsmiledasIwrotehiswordsdownontheapplicationreviewform.Apparently,hehasthecopingskillstoadjusttocollegelife.Failureisaboutgrowth,learning,overingandmovingon.Let’sallowyoungpeopletofail.Notonlywilltheylearnsomething,itmightevengetthemintocollege!(我微笑著把他的話寫在申請審查表上。顯然，他有適應(yīng)大學生活的應(yīng)對技巧。失敗是成長、學習、克服和繼續(xù)前進的過程。讓我們允許年輕人失敗。他們不僅會學到一些東西，甚至可能會進入大學！)”可知，作者在文章中主要講述自己作為大學的面試官從不會期待學生做得過于完美，因為作者認為有失敗經(jīng)歷的申請才是真實的，一位面試者的自述和作者提及的一個學生也表明青少年經(jīng)歷失敗，學會重新振作起來并吸取經(jīng)驗教訓才能真正成長、不斷進步。A項“LearntoFail(學會失敗)”符合文章主旨，適合作為最佳標題。故選A項。CThereisnodoubtthattostudyabroadgivesyouanexcellentopportunitytolearnthingswhichareveryhelpfulinyourcareerbuilding.TodayCanadahasearnedagoodnameinprovidingqualityeducationandasafeenvironmentforitsstudents.Thatiswhymorethan130,000internationalstudentsregistereveryyearinfamousCanadianuniversities.Itisanidealeducationdestinationandgivesstudentsauniqueexperienceofeducationanditsdiverseartsandculture.CanadaspendsalotoneducationandisrankedthehighestinG8countries.TostudyinCanadaisverycosteffective.TheseuniversitiesareaffordableparedtootheruniversitiesintheworldsuchasintheUS,NewZealandandtheUKwherethecostofeducationandlivingisveryhigh.Accordingtoasurveyin2006,“CanadaofferedthelowesttuitionfeesforforeignstudentsparedtotheUKandAustralia.”ThelowrateofcrimesandthepeacefulsafeenvironmentofthecountryalsoattractlotsofinternationalstudentstoCanadianuniversities.Canadahas92universitiesand175munitycollegesanduniversitydegreeshavethreelevels—Bachelor’s,Master’sandDoctoral.ABachelor’sdegreeinCanadaisforthreeorfouryears’fulltimestudydependinguponthenatureoftheprogramyouaredoing.OntheotherhandaMaster’sdegreeconsistsoftwoyearsofstudy.ForaDoctoralprograminaCanadianuniversityyourequireaminimumofthreetofourorsometimesfiveyearsofresearchandstudy.Youcanalsofindmanydiploma(學位證書)andqualificationprogramsinCanadianuniversitieswherethetimeisgenerallyoneyear.SomeoftheCanadianuniversitiesarewellregardedworldwideandthedegreeanddiplomaobtainedfromtheseCanadianuniversitiesarerecognizedgloballyandpromiseabrightfuture.AfterthepletionofstudiesapersoncouldalsofindgreatjoboffersinCanadaitself.8.WhydomoreandmoreinternationalstudentschoosetostudyinCanada?A.BecauseCanadiangovernmenthasagoodname.B.Becausestudentsareprovidedwithfreeeducation.C.Becausetherearemorethan130,000internationalstudents.D.Becauseitoffersexcellenteducationandenvironmenttostudents.9.paredtoothercountries,whichistheadvantageofCanadaforinternationalstudents?A.Thebesteducationalresourcesintheworld.B.Lowertuitionandasafeenvironment.C.Theshorteststudyingperiodforadoctoraldegree.D.Themostabundanteducationalcurriculum.10.WhichisTRUEaccordingtothelastparagraph?A.ItisdifficulttogetadiplomainCanada.B.TherearethemostinternationalstudentsinCanada.C.GraduatesfromCanadaprefertoworkoutside.D.SomeCanadianuniversitiesarepopularworldwide.11.Thearticleisprobablytakenfrom______.A.anewspaper
