答案：
【语篇解读】 作者转学后花了很长时间才适应新的学习环境。作者在文中为那些要适应新的学习环境的人提供了建议。
1. C 解析：根据上文可知，作者从一所小的乡村学校转到一所大学校，所以作者将自己比作一个大湖里的小鱼，应选择C。
2. A 解析：根据下文的“I just decided to be the wall flower...”可知，到了新的环境，作者害怕出错，所以决定做局外人，应选择A。in fear of“害怕”;in favour of“支持”;in honor of“为向……表示敬意”;in danger of“处于……的危险中”。
3. D 解析：when it comes/came to...表示“当论及……的时候”，为固定结构。
4. B 解析：根据上一句可知，作者不想参与课堂讨论和回答问题，所以作者会故意避免与老师的目光接触，应选择B。sharply“急剧地”;purposely“故意地”;hopelessly“无望地”;searchingly“彻底地”。
5. A 解析：作者故意避免与老师的目光接触，以防老师提问他。in case“以防”;so that“以便”;the moment“一……就”;soon after“在……之后，不久”。
6. C 解析：根据上文的“I listened well”可知，作者听讲很认真，应是努力记住课堂上老师讲的一切东西。take in“领会，记住”。
7. D 解析：根据上文的“but I always liked to be a spectator(旁观者)”，并结合下文的“It did take long for me... make friends with classmates.”可知，在许多同班同学面前讲话而不在意别人的看法是很难的。doubt“怀疑”;apply“应用”;check“核实”;care“在意，在乎”。
8. B 解析：参见上题解析。
9. D 解析：作者花了很长时间才觉得与老师在一起很轻松。comfortable表示“舒服的，轻松的”。
10. B 解析：根据下文的“feel they don't fit in”可知，此处应指一些人能立即适应新的学习环境，故用fit。
11. C 解析：上文说一些人能很快适应新的学习环境，下文说大部分人会紧张，觉得不适应，前后为转折关系，因此选择C。therefore“因此”;moreover“此外”;however“然而”;meanwhile“与此同时”。
12. A 解析：根据下文的“so it should not be a worry to you”可知，感觉不适应是完全正常的，所以不必为此担心。normal“正常的”;strange“奇怪的”;awkward“笨拙的”;interesting“有趣的”。
13. D 解析：积极面对，你会适应新的学校。proud“自豪的”;practical“实用的”;private“私人的”;positive“积极的”。
14. A 解析：__14__ you make of it.为表语从句，因引导词在从句中作make的宾语，表示“什么”，所以用what。
15. D 解析：根据下文的“some love it”及最后一段最后一句的“how much you loved it or hated it”可知，应选择D。
16. B 解析：此处表示“学校如何使你变成现在的你”。force“强迫”;develop“使成长”;place“放置”;teach“教”。
17. A 解析：强迫自己走出自己的舒适区是很重要的。push sb.out of表示“把某人推出”。
18. C 解析：此处指每节课至少举手回答一次问题，因此选择C。
19. B 解析：如果你思维敏捷，尽量给别人一次机会。作者在此建议给别人回答问题的机会，而不是答案。
20. C 解析：此处指你最终会意识到你有多爱它或多恨它。forget“忘记”;forgive“原谅”;realize“意识到”;remember“记得”。
