6、的;dependent依赖的;依靠的;polite有礼貌的,均不符合句意。2A.older BweakerCmarried Dconfident解析:选A。和“we want to go back to being young.”相对应的应该是older。however也是提示。3A.like BforgetCregret Dmiss解析:选D。长大以后,就会“怀念”年轻时候的岁月,故选D。4A.study BjobCage Dhealth解析:选B。成年人的主要压力应该来自工作,所以选B。5A.creates BshowsCmeans Dlimits解析:选C。此处应该是对adulthood
7、这一概念的解释。在年轻人的眼中,成年世界是自由的,没有父母和功课的压力。6A.childhood BadulthoodCparenthood Dmanhood解析:选A。和adulthood相对的是childhood。上下两句是两个年龄阶段的对比。7A.reduce BdescribeCexperience Dunderstand解析:选B。由下文“people say.”可知此处为describe。reduce减少,experience经历,understand理解,领会,均不符合语境。8A.greener BthinnerCyellow Dcolorful解析:选A。根据前文内容可知,没有

9、己的钱。12A.healthy BhardCbroken Dcold解析:选C。由下文可知,此空应填消极意义的词。经受挫折后才发现,生活并不像想象的那样美好,爱换来的是破碎的心。13A.breakfast BschoolCexercise Dwork解析:选D。由下文“They find out .”可知,此句描述的是长大后的感觉,所以work应为最佳答案。14A.rich BbusyCfree Deasy解析:选D。easy容易的,概括性强,A、B、C均不符合文意。亲身体验爱的痛苦,工作的压力,使年轻人真正体会了生活的不容易。15A.life BloveCcareer Dfuture解析:选
10、A。和上句放在一起理解,这是我们对人生的两大感悟。由上下文的逻辑关系判断,此句是上句的对比句。16A.long BshortCfair Dbeautiful解析:选C。由下句“It gives us time to _17_ but also requires us to work.”可推出此句为“Life is fair.”。此句为本段的主题句,结合下文才能得出答案。17A.study BthinkCplay Dlive解析:选C。与“give”相对应的是“require”,与“work”相对应的应该是“play”,上下文形成对比。18A.stopped BenjoyedCimagined
