  2. 1. In less than two weeks, I’ll have graduated. (Para 1) I’ll have graduated within two weeks. 不到两周,我就要毕业了。 This is an example of the use of the future perfect tense. The future perfect tense tells us something that will be past at or before a certain time in the future.

  3. Examples: By this time next week, you’ll have taken your examination. I hope it will have stopped raining before we have to go. I hope that everything I have told you will not have been forgotten by the next lesson.

  4. 2. I can still remember the first day of classes, looking on the map on the back of the Schedule of Classes and asking where the classroom building was. (Para 1) Being a freshman of the university, the author was not familiar with the school resources. That was why he asked of others the location of the classroom building on the first class day. 我依然记得第一天去上课时的情景,我一边望着课表背面的地图,一边打听教学楼在哪儿。

  5. 3. Every day I wish I could freeze time and make the next two weeks go more slowly. (Para 1) “wish” is followed by a subjunctive clause here. 每天我都祈愿时间会凝滞,接下来的两周过得更慢一些。 Examples: I wish it were cooler. (It is not cool. It is hot.) I wish you had been to the cinema with us last night. ( You didn’t.)

  6. 4. ... and through many triumphs and failures I came to know more about myself. (Para 2) I had experienced many successes and many failures. It was through these successes and failures that I got to know myself better. 历经多次的成功与失败使我对自己有了更多的了解。

  7. 5. As I walk down the familiar routes on campus, I found myself doing a lot of soul-searching and reminiscing. (Para 3) As I walk on the familiar campus road, I find myself thinking about the passed days I spent at the college. soul-searching: a deep examination of one’s mind and conscience. 走在校园熟悉的路上,不知不觉中就陷入了深深的反思和对往昔的回忆中。

  8. 6. The world is enormous and the possibilities are endless. (Para 3) The world is so big and who knows what will happen (after graduation). 世界如此之大,可能发生的事情太多太多。

  9. 7. I am getting a queasy feeling deep down every time I think about the fact that I’m going to be graduating. (Para 4) I feel quite uneasy at the idea that I will graduate from college. 每每想到就要毕业,我就打心眼儿里感到不安。

  10. None phrases like every time / the moment / next time can also be used to introduce adverbial clauses of time. Examples: Every time I catch a cold, I have a pain in my back. Stormy applause broke forth the moment the pop star appeared on the stage.

  11. 8. It’s too difficult to even contemplate the idea that soon I will be waking up in the mornings and not have a class to which I should be going. (Para 4) It is so difficult for me to understand that soon I will be waking up in the mornings and find there is no class for me to go to. 甚至不敢想像早上醒来没有课上会是什么样的情形。
