<p class="ql-block">As I entered an international high school, all my friends were surprised at my short hair. This is because my old school thought teenagers were not the ones for looking pretty, so I colored my hair blue. For the first time, I felt free, because this international school seemed to meet my needs.</p><p class="ql-block"> </p><p class="ql-block">I had a terrible education background. I went to public schools, received normal education, and was required to follow rules like every other student. Later, I began to wonder whether this education was truly suitable for me.</p><p class="ql-block"> </p><p class="ql-block">However, in the new school, my high hopes were not met. For a while, I found myself in a surprising situation that I had faced before. It was surprising that the biggest challenge I faced in my education was the freedom to try new things in the old system. I was strongly advised against trying new things. But in my new school, it worked in the opposite way—we had many chances to try new things. But if I failed, I must be responsible because I put myself at such risk. Finally, it led me to get into trouble again.</p><p class="ql-block"> </p><p class="ql-block">As time went by, I started to find my own balance. In fact, none of the education systems in the world are perfect. I am lucky enough to have a chance to bring great value from both systems together. As a result, I have built a system for myself.</p><p class="ql-block"><br></p><p class="ql-block">当我进入一所国际高中时，所有朋友都对我的短发感到惊讶。这是因为我原来的学校认为，青少年时期不该追求外表光鲜，于是我把头发染成了蓝色。人生中第一次，我感到了自由——这所国际学校似乎真正满足了我的需求。</p><p class="ql-block"> </p><p class="ql-block">我有着糟糕的教育背景。我曾就读于公立学校，接受常规教育，像其他所有学生一样被要求遵守各种规章制度。后来，我开始怀疑这样的教育是否真的适合我。</p><p class="ql-block"> </p><p class="ql-block">然而，在新学校里，我的殷切期望并未实现。有那么一段时间，我发现自己陷入了一个前所未有的意外困境。令人惊讶的是，在旧的教育体系中，我面临的最大挑战竟是“尝试新事物的自由”。过去总有人极力劝阻我不要尝试新事物，但在新学校里，一切却适得其反——我们有无数机会去探索未知。可一旦失败，我必须承担全部责任，因为是我自己选择了这样的风险。最终，这又让我陷入了麻烦。</p><p class="ql-block"> </p><p class="ql-block">随着时间的推移，我开始找到属于自己的平衡。事实上，世界上没有任何一种教育体系是完美的。我很幸运，有机会从两种体系中汲取精华并融会贯通，最终为自己构建了一套专属的成长模式。</p><p class="ql-block">全文解析（标注语法点、短语，及练习题）</p><p class="ql-block"><br></p><p class="ql-block"> 一、重点语法点梳理</p><p class="ql-block"> </p><p class="ql-block">1. 一般过去时</p><p class="ql-block">- 定义：描述过去发生的动作或存在的状态，动词用过去式（规则加-ed，不规则需记忆）。</p><p class="ql-block">- 文中例句：thought（think的过去式）、began（begin的过去式）、failed（fail的过去式）、seemed（seem的过去式）。</p><p class="ql-block">2. 过去完成时</p><p class="ql-block">- 定义：表示在过去某个动作之前已经发生的动作（“过去的过去”），结构为“had+过去分词”。</p><p class="ql-block">- 文中例句：had faced（face的过去分词为faced，表“进入新学校前遇到的情况”）。</p><p class="ql-block">3. 不定式结构（to+动词原形）</p><p class="ql-block">- 定义：to后接动词原形，表目的、机会、能力等，常见搭配“have a chance to do sth”（有机会做某事）。</p><p class="ql-block">- 文中例句：to meet my needs、to try new things、to bring great value。</p><p class="ql-block">4. 固定搭配中的介词用法</p><p class="ql-block">- 重点：at risk（处于风险中），不可用in risk；advise against（劝阻），against后接动名词。</p><p class="ql-block"> </p><p class="ql-block">二、核心短语&长难单词（附音标）</p><p class="ql-block"> </p><p class="ql-block">（一）核心短语</p><p class="ql-block"> </p><p class="ql-block">1. look pretty /ˈlʊkɪŋ ˈprɪti/ 追求外表光鲜</p><p class="ql-block">2. feel free /felt friː/ 感到自由</p><p class="ql-block">3. seem to meet my needs /siːmd tu miːt maɪ niːdz/ 似乎满足我的需求</p><p class="ql-block">4. receive normal education /rɪˈsiːvd ˈnɔːml ˌedʒuˈkeɪʃn/ 接受常规教育</p><p class="ql-block">5. follow rules /ˈfɒləʊ ruːlz/ 遵守规则</p><p class="ql-block">6. begin to wonder /bɪˈɡæn tu ˈwʌndə/ 开始怀疑</p><p class="ql-block">7. high hopes were not met /haɪ həʊps wɜː nɒt met/ 殷切期望未实现</p><p class="ql-block">8. surprising situation /səˈpraɪzɪŋ ˌsɪtʃuˈeɪʃn/ 意外的困境</p><p class="ql-block">9. try new things /traɪ njuː θɪŋz/ 尝试新事物</p><p class="ql-block">10. advise against /ədˈvaɪzd əˈɡenst/ 被劝阻</p><p class="ql-block">11. work in the opposite way /wɜːkt ɪn ði ˈɒpəzɪt weɪ/ 适得其反</p><p class="ql-block">12. at such risk /æt sʌtʃ rɪsk/ 处于这样的风险中</p><p class="ql-block">13. lead me to get into trouble /led mi tu ɡet ˈɪntu ˈtrʌbl/ 让我陷入麻烦</p><p class="ql-block">14. go by /went baɪ/ （时间）流逝</p><p class="ql-block">15. build a system for myself /bɪlt ə ˈsɪstəm fɔː maɪˈself/ 为自己构建一套体系</p><p class="ql-block"> </p><p class="ql-block">（二）长难单词</p><p class="ql-block"> </p><p class="ql-block">1. terrible /ˈterəbl/ adj. 糟糕的</p><p class="ql-block">2. colored /ˈkʌləd/ v. 给……染色（color的过去式/过去分词）</p><p class="ql-block">3. suitable /ˈsuːtəbl/ adj. 适合的</p><p class="ql-block">4. challenge /ˈtʃælɪndʒ/ n. 挑战</p><p class="ql-block">5. responsible /rɪˈspɒnsəbl/ adj. 负责任的</p><p class="ql-block">6. balance /ˈbæləns/ n. 平衡</p><p class="ql-block">7. perfect /ˈpɜːfɪkt/ adj. 完美的</p><p class="ql-block">8. value /ˈvæljuː/ n. 价值</p><p class="ql-block"> </p><p class="ql-block">三、针对性练习题</p><p class="ql-block"> </p><p class="ql-block">（一）时态填空（用所给动词的适当形式填空）</p><p class="ql-block"> </p><p class="ql-block">1.
