7.Yesterday I received a letter from Bruce Farrer,my junior school teacher in Canada.It was written by my 15-year-old self in 1995.Back in junior school,the teacher asked us students to write a letter to our future selves.Twenty years later,he gave the letters back to us.This is what my letter said:
Dear Sherri,
By the time you read this,you will be 35.At the age of 15,I had many hopes and dreams about you.Right now I hope you have traveled and seen everything you've always wanted to,both in Canada and abroad,maybe you have even settled (定居) down somewhere in China,and maybe you are working as an art teacher.I hope you're married to Gwynn--the man of your dreams.You'll probably have two children-a girl and a boy.
If everything goes OK,you'll be living in China in a big house in a small town with Gwynn and your two children.Gwynn will be a computer programmer and you will be doing all right for yourselves.
However,if things don't go according to plan,I wish you love,happiness and joy.
Love,
Sherri"15"
When I read this,I was surprised.So much of what I wanted has come true.
I did travel to a few more places in Canada.I've traveled to the UK,Australia and Egypt. ①I have lived in China for nearly 4 years in a big house,in a small suburb (郊區(qū)) of a big city.I am an art teacher in a university.I have two lovely kids.
②But not everything went as what I hoped.I married an excellent artist named Tom Rees.We are living a happy life.
I find it cool how the dreams of a young girl can become a grown woman's reality (現(xiàn)實).Do you want to write a letter to yourself in 20years?What would you like to write to your future self?

分析 本文主要介紹了給未來的我的一封信.初中時老師要求我們學生給未來的自己寫一封信.二十年后,他把信還給我們.信中描述了自己的夢想,現(xiàn)在讀到這封信,我覺得很酷,你想20年給自己寫封信嗎?你想給未來的自己寫些什么?
解答 77. Bruce Farrer 細節(jié)理解題,根據(jù)Yesterday I received a letter from Bruce Farrer可知這封信是來自Bruce Farrer,故答案為:Bruce Farrer.
78.5./Five./She had five hopes and dreams.細節(jié)理解題,根據(jù).Right now I hope you have traveled and seen everything you've always wanted to,both in Canada and abroad,maybe you have even settled (定居) down somewhere in China,and maybe you are working as an art teacher.I hope you're married to Gwynn--the man of your dreams.You'll probably have two children-a girl and a boy.可知她有五個夢想,故答案為:5./Five./She had five hopes and dreams.
79.我在中國的一所大房子里住了近四年了.句子翻譯題,這是一個現(xiàn)在完成時態(tài)的句子,for nearly 4 years 將近四年了,表示居住這個動作四年前開始并且一直持續(xù)達到現(xiàn)在,故答案為:我在中國的一所大房子里住了近四年了.
80.但并非一切都像我所希望的一樣發(fā)展.此處went是go的一般過去時,可以理解為:發(fā)展,as what I hoped像我所希望的一樣句子翻譯題,故答案為:但并非一切都像我所希望的一樣發(fā)展.
81.A letter to my future self./A letter to myself in the future.主旨大意題.根據(jù)可知本文主要介紹了給未來的我的一封信,故答案為:A letter to my future self./A letter to myself in the future.
