解析
本题考查词汇在语境中的运用,解题思路是根据句子的语法结构、上下文语义以及固定搭配来选择合适的单词。
- “Go to the website of the school your child will be 1) ____”,这里需要一个动词的现在分词形式,与“be”构成将来进行时态,表示孩子即将要做的事情。“attending”表示“参加,就读”,“be attending”即“即将就读”,符合语境,所以此处填“attending”。
- “The more your child knows about college requirements, available majors and minors, and individual course offerings, the 2) ______ it'll be for him or her to navigate the college once there.”,这是“the + 比较级,the + 比较级”的结构,表示“越……,就越……”。根据前文孩子对大学情况了解得越多,那么在大学中就越容易应对,“easier”是“easy”的比较级,意为“更容易的”,所以填“easier”。
- “Are you 3) ______ to post to your student's wall?”,这里考查“be allowed to do sth.”的固定用法,意思是“被允许做某事”,“allowed”符合语法和语义要求,所以填“allowed”。
- “Discuss with your child about the 4) ______ of college: too much partying, mental health problems, safety risks, and simple...”,冒号后面列举了诸如过度派对、心理健康问题、安全风险等内容,这些都属于大学存在的“危险”,“dangers”是“danger”的复数形式,所以填“dangers”。
- “...and simple 5) ______ of sleep.”,“lack of”是固定短语,意为“缺乏”,“lack of sleep”即“睡眠不足”,所以填“lack”。
- “If this is your child's first extended time away from home, they will 6) ______ from your life experience.”,“benefit from”是固定搭配,意思是“从……中受益”,这里说孩子第一次长时间离家,会从父母的生活经验中受益,所以填“benefit”。
- “Many parents, especially conscientious ones, are used to 'helping' their kids study for tests, 'reminding' them of upcoming deadlines, and 'going over' the homework 7) ______.”,这里需要一个副词来修饰动词短语“going over”,“nightly”是副词,意为“每晚,在夜间”,表示父母习惯每晚帮孩子复习作业,所以填“nightly”。
