25、1. resting 【解析】考查非谓语动词。固定短语：spend time doing sth花费时间做某事。2. a 【解析】考查冠词。model是可数名词，前面没有限定词，而此处泛指 一个，故填a。3. was told / has been told 【解析】考查动词的时态和语态。根据语境可判断出谓语动词应该用一般过去时或现在完成时的被动形式，又因主语Sarah是第三人称单数，故填was told / has been told。4. who 【解析】考查定语从句。非限制性定语从句中缺少主语，且先行词为Sarah，指人，要用who。5. to prove 【解析】考查非谓语动词。want to do sth.想要做某事。6. education 【解析】考查词形转换。形容词性物主代词后面应该接名词形式。7. invitations 【解析】考查名词单复数。several修饰可数名词复数形式，故填invitations。8. in 【解析】考查介词。in表示在某方面，获得某项学位 get a degree in。9. comes 【解析】考查动词。根据语境可知Sarah认为当下应该是学业第一，说明现在的情况应该用一般现在时。10. certainly 【解析】考查副词。修饰动词应该用副词形式，故填certainly。
