解析

本题考查动词短语的语境化选择，需要根据句意选择恰当的短语填空。解题核心在于：

  1. 理解每个短语的核心含义，如 bridge the gap（连接两端）、turn out（结果是）等；
  2. 结合句中关键词或逻辑关系，如时间变化、情感状态等，锁定正确短语；
  3. 注意短语的固定搭配，如 come to terms with 后接名词或代词。

第1题

关键点：句子提到“提供过渡支持”，目的是连接高中和大学。短语 bridge the gap 表示“连接两端”，符合“填补两者之间差距”的语境。

第2题

关键点：句中“though they were not confident”形成对比，说明结果与预期相反。turn out 表示“结果是”，后接 to be 符合语法。

第3题

关键点：时间推移导致“细节消失”，但美好回忆保留。drop away 表示“逐渐消失”，与时间变化的语境匹配。

第4题

关键点：毕业后“找到工作并开始家庭”是稳定下来的表现。settle down 表示“安定下来”，符合生活状态的转变。

第5题

关键点：面对变化需“接受现实”，come to terms with 表示“对……释怀/接受”，与“调整现状”形成逻辑连贯。

第6题

关键点：幽默感使他在群体中“脱颖而出”。stand out 表示“突出、显眼”，直接对应句意。
