When my students practice journal writing, they are practicing for their future academic, political, and __9__ lives.

[I] painful
[J] performance

答案解析：
1. 【答案】 M
【精析】 动词辨析题。空格位于从句的主语 assignments和宾语it之间，因此需要一个及物动词作谓语。选项中的另三个动词 D)enhance"推动"；G)hinder"阻碍"和O)urge"敦促"，均不符合句意。
2. 【答案】 I
【精析】 形容词辨析题。空格处为连词and连接的两个并列成分之一。根据and之后的difficult可以判断，此处需要一个与difficult同义或近义的 形容词。选项中其他形容词A)closer"更近的"；B)daily "每天的"；C)emotional "感情的"；E)enormous"巨大的"；N)sensitive"敏感的"，均不符合句意， 故排除。
3. 【答案】 F
【精析】 副词辨析题。空格处缺少副词。前半部分提到language，空格之后的English为语言的一种，因而此处的意思是：英语尤其如此。选项中另一个副词L）remarkably"不同寻常地"，不符合句意，故排除。
4. 【答案】 E
【精析】 形容词辨析题。空格位于不定冠词an与名词mansion之间，显然需要一个形容词，而且需要以元音字母开头。选项中不是元音开头的形容词可以全部排除，而另外一个以元音开头的形容词C）emotional"感情的"，不符合句意，故排除。
5. 【答案】 H
【精析】 名词辨析题。空格位于形容词性物主代词my和系动词is之间，需要一个名词作宾语从句的主语。而且根据句意，此处的名词意思应为"工作"或者"任务"。选 项中另外两个名词 J)performance"表现"和K)profession"职业"，都可以与 my搭配，但不符合句意，故排除。
6. 【答案】 D
【精析】 动词辨析题。空格前出现动词不定式符号to，此处需要一个动词原形，而且要与后面的development搭配。G)hinder可与development搭配，但与句意相反，需要排除；O)urge不能与development搭配，所以排除。
7. 【答案】 B
【精析】 副词辨析题。本句句子结构完整，所以此处缺少修饰成分。根据上下文推断，需要表示"每天"的副词做状语， 因此可以直接选定答案。
8. 【答案】 J
【精析】 名词辨析题。空格位于连词and之后，根据and前面的成分判断，此处需要一个名词J)performane"表现"。选项中另外两个名词 H)mission"任务"和K)profession"职业"，均不符合句意，所以排除。
9. 【答案】 C
【精析】 形容词辨析题。空格缺少形容词与academic, political 作并列成分，共同修饰后面的名词lives。根据下文一一对应的举例，此处的形容词应与love letter 对应，可直接选定答案。
10. 【答案】 A
【精析】 形容词辨析题。空格处缺少与step搭配的形容词作后置定语，而且要与介词to搭配。根据句意，这里表示"向……更近一步"。选项中其他形容词均不能与介词to搭配，所以全部排除。 |
