mind.‖ It was true that Jeff had graduated from college and flown from the nest. But would he mind? The room was the place where I told him a thousand stories and we had a thousand talks.

Habits, whether good or bad, are slowly formed. When a person 61 (do) a certain thing again and again, he is driven by some unseen force to do the same thing repeatedly, and then a habit is formed. A habit, once 62 (develop), is difficult and sometimes 63 (possible) to get rid of. Good habits, such as early rising and 64 (honest), which are formed in early life, are of great help. Many successful men say it is some good habits formed in early years 65 lead to their success. But children often form bad habits, some of which remain with them as long 66 they live. Among the habits which children should not form are laziness, telling lies, stealing, copying homework, disliking hard work, hating cooperating with others, wasting, smoking, etc. which are all 67 (easy) formed habits. Older persons also form bad habits, lasting their lifetime, and sometimes bee ruined by them. It is therefore very important 68 (pay) attention to the formation of habits. So we should keep away 69 all these bad habits, and try to form such habits as will be good for 70 (we) and other people. 第四部分 寫作 (共兩節(jié),滿分 35 分 ) 第一節(jié) 短文改錯(共 10 小題;每小題 1 分,滿分 10分) 下面短文中有 10 處語言錯誤,每句中最多有兩處。 增加:在缺詞處加一個漏詞符號( ∧ ),并在其下面寫出該加的詞。 修改:在錯的詞下劃一橫線,并在該詞下面寫出修改后的詞。 I suppose you may be a few unhappy because I let you down yesterday afternoon, I am much sorry for not go with you to the football game.
