32、n genuine (真的) shock(我吃 惊地张大嘴巴)”可以看出，被 Middlebury 录取是意料之外的事情。因此可推测 出在众多申请者中他应该是很一般的。选项 A“I didnt think I was a worthy enough candidate to get accepted.(我认为我并不是一个足以值得被录取的申请 者)”和前文逻辑和语境都符合。故选 A 项。 2C 根据上文的“I would fall behind my peers.I would forget everything I learned in high school with seven month

35、和独 立的感受，这是我在青少年时期从来没有的经历)”作为过渡句，起承上启下的 作用。故选 F 项。 5B 前一句“My gap semester was the best beginning to adulthood because it helped me become mature in an unexpected and enriching manner，(我的间隔年是 我成年最好的开始，因为它用一种意想不到的，丰富的方式帮助我变得成熟)” 中谈到了成年时期的开始，和 B 选项中的“starting a new chapter of my life(开启 生命的新篇章)”意思相同，前后照应。故选 B 项。
