人生不是上帝為譴責我們的缺陷而給我們布下的陷阱。人生也不是一場拼寫比賽，不管你拼出多少單詞，一旦出現了一個錯誤，就會前功盡棄。人生更像是一個棒球賽季，即使最好的球隊也會輸掉三分之一的比賽，即便最差的球隊也有春風得意的日子。我們的目標就是多贏少輸。當我們能夠接受不完整是人性的一部分這個事實時，當我們的人生不斷滾動并能欣賞其價值時，我們就會獲得其他人僅渴望的完整人生。我相信這就是上帝對我們的要求：不求“完美”，不求“永不犯錯”，而是求得人生的完整。

3.A解析：本題考虛擬語氣在名詞性從句中的用法。在“ask(advise，desire，ordersuggest，require，etc。)+the廣引導的從句中，謂語動詞應用“should+認”，should可以省去，再結合語態，故A項正確。本句大意為：他們要求所有的必要文件都必須在月底之前交到校長辦公室。

15.B

16.Ainparticular是固定搭配，意為“特別地”。
