這篇短文告訴我們時(shí)間是非常寶貴的，我們不能浪費(fèi)時(shí)間，而是應(yīng)該珍惜時(shí)間，并且合理、充分地使用時(shí)間，活在當(dāng)下。

【1】句意：然而我們大多數(shù)人直到太晚了才意識(shí)到時(shí)間的寶貴。remind提醒，使想起；realize意識(shí)到；review復(fù)習(xí)，回顧；research研究。根據(jù)句意和下文It is only when we get___6___that we begin to realize that time is a precious treasure.可知，這里表示“意識(shí)到時(shí)間的寶貴”，故應(yīng)選B。

【2】句意：我們不去計(jì)算一天中的每一秒、每一分鐘、每一小時(shí)，因?yàn)槲覀冎�道明天�?huì)帶來(lái)更多。tomorrow 明天；success成功；ability能力；knowledge知識(shí)。根據(jù)句意和空后will bring more可知，帶來(lái)更多時(shí)間的是明天，故應(yīng)選A。

【3】句意：我們有如此多的時(shí)間，以至于我們覺(jué)得自己能夠輕松地承擔(dān)得起浪費(fèi)時(shí)間的后果。agree同意；avoid避免；afford負(fù)擔(dān)得起；advise建議。根據(jù)句意We have so much time….to waste some of it可知，這里表示“我們認(rèn)為自己能承擔(dān)浪費(fèi)時(shí)間的后果”，故應(yīng)選C。

【4】句意：想想這些常見(jiàn)的英語(yǔ)表達(dá)：“浪費(fèi)時(shí)間”、“填滿時(shí)間”、“消磨時(shí)間”。expressions表達(dá)；instructions指導(dǎo)，說(shuō)明；suggestions建議；introductions介紹。根據(jù)空后"wasting time. ""filling in time” or even "killing time"可知，這里列舉的是與time有關(guān)的英語(yǔ)表達(dá)，故應(yīng)選A。

【5】句意：我們對(duì)時(shí)間多么的不尊重。few幾乎沒(méi)有，修飾可數(shù)名詞；little少，幾乎沒(méi)有，修飾不可數(shù)名詞；a few一些，幾個(gè)；a little一點(diǎn)兒。根據(jù)上文"wasting time. ""filling in time” or even "killing time"可知，人們對(duì)時(shí)間是不尊重的，這里表示否定的意思，先排除C和D�？蘸�respect是不可數(shù)名詞，故應(yīng)選B。

【6】句意：只有當(dāng)我們變老的時(shí)候，我們才意識(shí)到時(shí)間是寶貴的財(cái)富。older更老的；stronger更強(qiáng)壯的；elder更年長(zhǎng)的；higher更高的。上文When we are young, we feel that we will never run out of time.提到，“我們年輕的時(shí)候，總是感覺(jué)時(shí)間用不完”，這里應(yīng)對(duì)應(yīng)說(shuō)“我們老的時(shí)候，才意識(shí)到時(shí)間的寶貴”，故應(yīng)選A。

【7】句意：我們可能突然發(fā)現(xiàn)自己沒(méi)有很好地投資我們的時(shí)間。Simply僅僅，只；Specially特殊地；Suddenly突然；Seriously嚴(yán)重地，嚴(yán)肅地。根據(jù)句意可知，這里表示“我們老的時(shí)候，突然意識(shí)到…”，故選C。

【8】句意：我們發(fā)現(xiàn)我們不再有足夠的時(shí)間去做我們想做的事情了。at times有時(shí)候；any more不再，謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞應(yīng)用否定形式，構(gòu)成not …any more；at least至少；no longer不再。根據(jù)句意可知，這里表示“不再有足夠的時(shí)間了”，修飾謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞have，故選D。

【9】句意：正如成年人需要把錢(qián)花在稅收和賬單等不愉快的事情上一樣，他們也必須把時(shí)間花在那些他們可能并不想做的事情上。unexpected出乎意料的；unpleasant令人不愉快的；unforgettable難忘的；unbelievable難以置信的。根據(jù)句中they also have to spend their time doing things that they might not really want to do“他們也把時(shí)間花在他們不想做的事情上”可知，這里應(yīng)指的是“把錢(qián)花在令人不愉快的事情上”，故應(yīng)選B。

【10】句意：正如習(xí)語(yǔ)所說(shuō)：“拖延就是浪費(fèi)時(shí)間”。writes寫(xiě)；tells告訴；reads 讀；says說(shuō)。say可以表示“提供信息”，這里表示習(xí)語(yǔ)的內(nèi)容，故應(yīng)選D。

這篇短文給我們講述了時(shí)間的寶貴，我們應(yīng)珍惜時(shí)間。短文內(nèi)容貼近學(xué)生們的日常生活，所涉及的這一話題是學(xué)生們非常熟悉的，這些對(duì)于學(xué)生們做題是非常有利的。這個(gè)題目是完形填空，考查學(xué)生們?cè)诰唧w語(yǔ)境中運(yùn)用語(yǔ)言的能力，綜合性較強(qiáng)。做題時(shí)，應(yīng)先通讀短文，了解大意；然后根據(jù)上下文語(yǔ)境的提示作答，注意空前后的固定搭配，并仔細(xì)辨析選項(xiàng)中單詞的意思和用法；最后將答案代入原文，再讀一遍，檢查答案是否正確。例如第3小題，考查動(dòng)詞辨析，根據(jù)句意We have so much time….to waste some of it可知，這里表示“我們認(rèn)為自己能承擔(dān)浪費(fèi)時(shí)間的后果”，故應(yīng)選C。再如第9小題，考查形容詞辨析，unexpected出乎意料的；unpleasant令人不愉快的；unforgettable難忘的；unbelievable難以置信的。根據(jù)句中they also have to spend their time doing things that they might not really want to do“他們也把時(shí)間花在他們不想做的事情上”可知，這里應(yīng)指的是“把錢(qián)花在令人不愉快的事情上”，故應(yīng)選B。
