Passage Three

Where do you think you will be in ten years? It’s difficult to know exactly where you will be and what you will be doing. (22) But everyone dreams about the future. You might imagine the job you will get when you finish school. You may daydream about meeting your life partner or live in a big house by the sea.

In my dreams, I would have twins, a boy and a girl. We would live in a large two-story house with floors and the staircase made of wood. Now, at the age of 46, I look back on those dreams and smile. Things haven’t turned out exactly as I imagined. (23) But I wouldn’t change what I have now for that imaginary world. (24) In college, I studied international business, and planned to enter a law school. In my third year of university, I realized that I didn’t want to become a lawyer. Instead, I chose to become a language teacher. I did get married, but had more than two children. We had five. Do I live in; the dream house with wooden floors? No, I don’t. But I love my home and I wouldn’t want to live in any other place.

I believe that as a young person, it’s important to dream and make plans. However, it’s also important to realize that not all of your plans will turn out exactly as you wish. (25) One of the biggest lessons I have learned in life is this: Be happy with what you have.

22. What does the speaker think everyone tends to do?

23. What does the speaker say he would refuse to do?

24. What did the speaker major in during the first two years of college?

25. What is one of the biggest lessons the speaker has learned in life?

22. C) Dream about the future.
23. B) Change what he has for his past imaginary world.
24. D) International business.
25. C) Be content with what you have.

【翻譯】

你認為自己10年后會在哪里呢？

很難準確地知道未來你會在哪里、在做什么。

但每個人都憧憬著未來。

你可能會設(shè)想自己畢業(yè)后從事的工作。

你可能會夢想著遇見人生伴侶，或是居住在海邊的大房子里。

在我的夢里，我將會有一對雙胞胎，一個男孩、一個女孩。

我們將居住在鋪有木質(zhì)地板和樓梯的兩層大房子里。

現(xiàn)在我46歲了，回看這些夢想，感覺很好笑。

事情的發(fā)展并沒有與我想象的完全一樣，但是我不會用現(xiàn)有的世界去換取那個設(shè)想的世界。

在大學(xué)里，我學(xué)習(xí)了國際貿(mào)易，并且計劃進入法學(xué)院。

在大學(xué)三年級的時候，我意識到自己并不想成為一名律師。

相反，我選擇成為了一位語言教師。

我確實結(jié)婚了，但育有不止兩個孩子。而是五個孩子。

我住在夢想中的鋪有木地板的房子里了嗎？

不，我沒有，但是我喜歡自己的房子，不愿意住到其他地方了。

我相信，對于一個年輕人，擁有夢想和制定計劃是很重要的事情。

然而，意識到不是所有的計劃都會如你所愿，這一點也很重要。

我在生活中學(xué)到的最重要的一課是：“為所擁有的感到快樂?！?/p>

請根據(jù)你剛剛聽到的文章回答問題22至問題25。

問題22：說話者認為每個人都傾向于做什么事？

問題23：說話者說他將拒絕做什么？

問題24：在大學(xué)的前兩年，說話者主修的專業(yè)是什么？

問題25：說話者在生活中學(xué)到的最重要的一課是什么？
