2018年全国I卷完形填空 During my second year at the city college, I was told thatthe education department was offering a “free” course, called Thinking Chess,for three credits. I jumped at the idea of taking the class because, afterall, who doesn’t want to save a few dollars? More than that, I’d alwayswanted to learn chess. And, even if I weren’t excited enough about freecredits, news about our instructor was appealing enough to me. He was an internationalgrandmaster, which meant I would be learning from one of thegame’s best . I could hardly waitto meet him.
Maurice Ashley was kindand smart, a former graduate returning to teach, and this job was no game for him; he meant business. In his introduction, he madeit clear that our credits would be hard-earned. In order to pass the class, among other criteria, we had to write a paper on how we planto apply what we would learn in class to our future professions and, eventually , to our lives. I managed to getan A in that course and learned life lessons that have served mewell beyond the classroom .
Ten years after my chess class withAshley, I’m still putting to use what he taught me:“The absolute mostimportant skill that you learn when you play chess is how tomake good decisions . On every singlemove you have to analyze a situation, process what your opponent (对手) is doing and evaluate
the best move from among all your options.”These words still ring true today in my role as a journalist.
完形-2018年新课标全国卷I
在我城市学院二年级的时候，有人告诉我教育学院开设了一门“免费”的课程，课程名称为思维象棋，有三个学分。我一听就想要上这个课程，毕竟谁不想要省点钱呢？此外，我一直都想学习象棋。并且，即使我对免费的学分没有什么兴趣，光是课程老师的传闻也已经足够吸引我了。他是一位国际知名的象棋大师，这意味着我将跟着一位顶级大师学习象棋。我简直有些迫不及待地想要见到他。
Maurice Ashley为人友善，睿智深邃。他是我们学校的毕业生，现在回校任教了。对他而言，这份工作不是一个玩笑，而是一件正事。在他的课程介绍里，他明确表示拿到课程学分并非易事。想要通过这门课程，除了其他要求以外，我们还要写一篇关于我们如何将课程所学运用于我们未来的职业和生活（最终地）的文章。我通过努力地拿到了这个课程的A，并从中学习到了在课堂之外也很受用的人生哲学。
在我上了Ashley象棋课程的十年以后，我现在仍会将他教给我的用到实处：“你在下象棋时所学到的绝对重要的技能是，如何做出明智的决定。在下每一步棋时，你都要对局势进行分析，思考你的对手正在想什么，评估你所有选择中的最佳选择。”即使在我现在的记者工作中，这些话语也仍如真理一般。
