【解析】

本文是一篇议论文，就“如何避开遗憾，让生活更美好”，作者提出了一些有效的建议。如：制定更好的计划，过一种更活跃的生活，选择一个合适的朋友，不畏惧失败。

1.根据后文“Everyone has regrets in the life.”每个人的一生都有遗憾可知，生命中是充满了遗憾的，所以第一空应填full；由文中“You will know what comes first and what comes last.” 你会知道什么是最重要的，什么是次要的可知其表述的是两个反方向的事，所以后一句也是表示前后两个方向的事，前一句表示“what you should do”，所以后一句应该是“what you shouldn’t do”，所以第二空是shouldn’t，故填(1). full (2). shouldn’t

2.先找到能搭配的短语，think twice表示“三思”；choose a friend表示“选择一个朋友”；have to表示“不得不”；由前一句“A friend may make your life and he or she can break your life as well.”朋友可以成就你的一生也可以毁掉你的一生可知，所以后面这句应该是表示当你选择朋友的时候要三思，故填So you have to think twice when you choose a friend。

3.take failure as a chance表示“把失败当做一次机会”；must表示“必须”；learn表示“学习”；improve ourselves表示“提高自我”，故填我们必须把失败当作一次学习和提高自我的机会!

4.由文中“Make better plans”做出更好的计划、“Live a more active life” 过一种更活跃的生活、“Good friends will always better your ideas”表示“选择更好的朋友”、“Never fear failure”不畏惧失败这几项可知是4项建议，故填four。

5.本文的题目可以根据本文的主旨来决定，这是一项开放式的题目，只要是符合文章主旨的回答均能得分，故填Regrets. / Life is full of regrets. / How to avoid future regrets。
