(10 points)During my second year at the city college，I was told that the education department was offering a freecourse, called Thinking Chess, for three credits. I 1 the idea of taking the class because, after all, who doesnt want to 2 a few dollars? More than that, Id always wanted to learn chess. And, even if I werent 3 enough about free credits, news about our 4 was appealing enough to me. He was an international grandmaster, which 5 I would be learning from one of the games 6 . I could hardly wait to 7 him.Maurice Ashley was kind and smart, a former graduate returning to teach, and this 8 was no game for him: he meant business. In his introduction, he made it 9 that our credits would be hard-earned. In order to 10 the class, among other criteria, we had to write a paper on how we plan to 11 what we would learn in class to our future professions and, 12 , to our lives. I managed to get an A in that 13 and learned life lessons that have served me well beyond the 14 .Ten years after my chess class with Ashley, Im still putting to use what he 15 me: “The absolute most important 16 that you learn when you play chess is how to make good 17 . On every single move you have to 18 a situation, process what your opponent(对手）is doing and 19 the best move from among all your options.”These words still ring true today in my 20 as a journalist.1、Aput forward Bjumped at Ctried out Dturned down2、Awaste Bearn Csave Dpay3、Aexcited Bworried Cmoved Dtired4、Atitle Bcompetitor Ctextbook Dinstructor5、Aurged Bdemanded Cheld Dmeant6、Afastest Beasiest Cbest Drarest7、Ainterview Bmeet Cchallenge Dbeat8、Achance Bqualification Chonor Djob9、Areal Bperfect Cclear Dpossible10、Aattend Bpass Cskip Dobserve11、Aadd Bexpose Capply Dcompare12、Aeventually Bnaturally Cdirectly Dnormally13、Agame Bpresentation Ccourse Dexperiment14、Acriterion Bclassroom Cdepartment Dsituation15、Ataught Bwrote Cquestioned Dpromised16、Afact Bstep Cmanner Dskill17、Agrades Bdecisions Cimpressions Dcomments18、Aanalyze Bdescribe Crebuild Dcontrol19、Aannounce Bsignal Cblock Devaluate20、Arole Bdesire Cconcern DbehaviorSection II Reading ComprehensionPart ADirections:Read the following four texts.
