而走向末日。慶祝進步，不斷改進走向一個快樂而富有成效的存在)”解釋了列出清單一件一件完成任務的原因。故選G。第二部分語言運用（共兩節(jié)，滿分30分）第一節(jié)（共15小題；每小題1分，滿分15分）閱讀下面短文，從短文后各題所給的A、B、C、D四個選項中選出可以填入空白處的最佳選項。At111,DrEdithKaufmannwasthesecondoldestpersonintheUK.ImetherwhenI____21____acarehomefortheelderlyinLondonsixyearsago.Ididn’trealizeitwouldbethestartofaclose____22____,wheretheagegapwaseightdecades.Atfirstsight,Iwas____23____byherself-confidence.Herdoctorate(博士學位)toldmeshewasintelligentand____24____.Fromthebeginning,IneverfeltasifEdithandI____25____conversation.Edithcouldhaveafullconversationwithmeaboutanything,andthathermemorystretchedbacksoeasily,____26____evensmallthingswhichtookplace100yearsago.Shewasalso____27____.SheloveddancingasachildandIrecall,onlyafewweeksbeforeherdeath,shelaughed____28____whenIplayedthewaltz(華爾茲)andwe____29____handsanddancedalongtothemusic.Althoughtowardsherlateryearsshewas_____30_____toawheelchair,shestillparticipatedintheexerciseclasses.AsI_____31_____Editheachweek,IrealizedthatIwasgoingasmuchformeasIwasforher.Ilearnttotakethewordsof_____32_____whenIcouldgetthem.WhenIhave_____33_____overtheyears,andsmalldecisionshaveweighedonmymind,Ihave_____34_____nothingmorethantheopportunitytoregainmyperspectiveonlifeandwhatactually_____35_____.21.A.studied
