Betty Sandison was having lunch with some friends when the subject of wish lists came up. Although she had spent more than 30 years working as a registered nurse, Betty told her friends that she regretted never finishing the bachelor's degree she'd started more than 67 years earlier.
Betty was the first person in her family to pursue higher education. With a dream of becoming a nurse, Betty enrolled at the University of Minnesota.

(2023河北师范大学附属中学开学考试 )
Many schools across the US hold graduation ceremonies in May or June every year. In some schools, even 5- and 6-year-olds observe their graduation from kindergarten. And so can older people, much older. Meet 70-year-old Jerry Reid, who just graduated from the University of Virginia in Charlottesville. He earned a bachelor's degree and gained a certificate.
Mr. Reid might not look like the average college student; his hair is bound to be grayer, but still Jerry Reid's age is easy to forget. Other UVA students know him as one of their own. Mr. Reid sat in the “Hoo Crew”, a group that cheers loudly for the school at sports events. He also joined a men's group on campus. He sang drinking songs along with many other students. Mr. Reid's school friends say they can talk to him just about anything.
About a half century ago, in his 20s, Mr. Reid was not in school. Instead, he was racing cars and chasing girls. But he says his friend Bill invited him to UVA parties. “Bill told me what a terrible life I had unless I came up here and went to school with him,” said Reid.
That was in 1963. Jerry Reid says it took him 48 years to take that advice. In 2011, he entered college. UVA Professor Luke Wright says Mr. Reid influenced students. He opened the minds of the young adults. The teacher says Mr. Reid showed them that life does not end at 40. Instead, the 70-year-old college graduate believes that getting older can be the beginning of a dream.
“Remember that the path that you left waits for you. It's there. It's yours. All you must do is get out of your own way and get back to it. And, that's exactly what I did,” said Reid. Mr. Reid says that he and his wife Susan now will take some time off to enjoy his college degree. Then, he'll return to UVA to begin studying for his graduate degree.
5.What do you know about Mr. Reid from the passage
A.He was laughed at by other students.
B.He got his graduate degree at the age of 70.
C.He was interested in racing cars in his youth.
D.He transformed the views of young people completely.
6.Which word can best describe Mr. Reid from what he did in the university
A.Considerate.　　　B.Independent.　　　C.Intelligent.　　　D.Energetic.
7.What does the fourth paragraph mainly discuss
A.How Mr. Reid realized his dream.　　　B.What a teacher thinks of Mr. Reid.
C.When Mr. Reid entered college.　　　D.Why the students like Mr. Reid.
8.What can we learn from the story of Jerry Reid
A.It is never too late to learn.　　　B.Two heads are better than one.
C.Actions speak louder than words.　　　D.A friend in need is a friend indeed.
答案与分层梯度式解析
Unit 4　Never too old to learn
Part 1　Welcome to the unit & Reading
基础过关练
Ⅰ.1.inquiring　2.resolved　3.refreshes　4.objective　5.register
Ⅱ.1.形容词;空白的　句意:当我在看电影《长津湖》的时候,屏幕突然变成了一片空白。
2.形容词;茫然的　句意:玛丽亚脸上茫然的表情表明她听不懂讲座。
3.名词;空白处　句意:在每个空白处填上一个单词以使句子完整。
Ⅲ.1.for　考查介词。句意:他们登上了飞往莫斯科的17号航班,在广州和北京短暂停留。(be) bound for sp.意为“准备前往某地”,故填for。
2.critical　考查形容词。句意:学校餐厅里有许多剩饭,校长严厉地批评了这件事。设空处作表语,be critical of意为“对……提出批评”,故填critical。
3.assumptions　考查名词。句意:他们不是自己查明事情,而是做出通常证明是错误的的假设。设空处作make的宾语,应用名词,定语从句中的that指代设空处,从句的谓语动词使用了复数形式,因此设空处应用名词复数,故填assumptions。
4.growing　考查动名词。句意:一旦这些植物在冬天耗尽了它们的储备,它们就会停止生长。植物在生长过程中会不断储存营养,然后消耗掉,因此用cease doing sth.表示“停止做某事”,故填growing。
易错归因
　　本题易错填to grow。cease to do sth.和cease doing sth.都表示“停止做某事”,cease to do sth.侧重长时间甚至永远停止做某事,而cease doing sth.侧重短时间停止做某事,以后还会接着做。
5.It　考查强调句型。句意:是你的鼓励和支持敦促我走出我的舒适区,迎接新的挑战。去掉设空处、was和that后,句子意思和结构完整,由此可知这是“It was...that...”强调句型,被强调的部分是句子的主语your encouragement and support,故填It。
6.more likely　考查形容词的比较级。句意:正如Berger博士在他的新书中解释的那样,一篇文章越积极,就越有可能被分享。此处为“the+比较级...,the+比较级...”结构,意为“越……,就越……”。故填more likely。
7.that　考查表语从句。句意:这里最有趣的事情就是晚上我们可以去健身广场踢足球。设空处引导表语从句,说明主语的内容,从句成分和意思完整,故用that。
Ⅳ.1.subscribe to　2.is bound to　3.keep pace with
Ⅴ.1.Not;but;were praised　2.As soon as;what had happened
能力提升练
Ⅰ.1.the　考查固定结构。分析句子可知,此处是“the+比较级...,the+比较级...”结构,故填the。
2.rapidly　考查副词。设空处修饰changing,故用副词形式。
3.be exposed　考查被动语态。动词expose与you之间是被动关系,空前为情态动词will,故填be exposed。
4.is being revised　考查动词的时态、语态和主谓一致。根据上文“is constantly being generated”以及空后的all the time可知,设空处应用现在进行时;动词revise与主语“what you already know”之间是被动关系,应用被动语态;主语是what引导的从句,谓语动词应用单数形式,故填is being revised。
5.to keep　考查动词不定式。此处是“it+be+adj.+to do sth.”结构,it是形式主语,不定式短语是真正的主语,故填to keep。
6.objective　考查形容词。由空前的be和and后的open可知应用形容词,表示“客观的”,故填objective。
7.what　考查宾语从句。分析句子结构可知,设空处引导宾语从句,作from的宾语,且设空处在从句中作know和believe的宾语,表示“……的事物”,故填what。
8.or　考查连词。此处是“either...or...”结构,故用连词or。

1.is　考查动词的时态和主谓一致。设空处作谓语,本句陈述的是一般事实,应用一般现在时,主语为第三人称单数,谓语动词应用单数形式。故填is。
2.where　考查定语从句。设空处引导定语从句,修饰先行词the Ullens Center for Contemporary Art (UCCA),关系词在从句中作地点状语,应用where。
3.intelligence　考查名词。根据空格前的Their和空格后的and achievements可知,设空处应填名词,intelligence为不可数名词。故填intelligence。
4.to start　考查动词不定式。it is never too late to do sth.为固定句型,意为“做某事永远不会太晚”,it作形式主语,动词不定式是真正的主语。故填to start。
5.to　考查介词。in addition to意为“除……之外”,故填to。
6.oldest　考查形容词最高级。根据语境和空前的冠词the可知,设空处应填形容词最高级作定语,修饰名词guide。故填oldest。
