7.【答案】absorb as much knowledge as he can

本句意为：学生应该珍惜宝贵时间并吸收尽可能多的知识以便为将来事业打下坚实的基础。“吸收”可选用absorb，drink in，take in.“尽可能多的”译为as many as或as much as，具体要看句中名词是可数还是不可数。lay a foundation for表示“为……打下基础”。

8.【答案】nowhere is education better than in college

“没有任何地方”译成“nowhere”，但nowhere是一个表示否定的词，后面要采取部分倒装的形式，所以把is置于主语education之前。

9.【答案】he would sooner die than do such a thing

主语+would sooner+动词原形+than+动词原形表示“两者比较宁愿做……，也不愿意做另一件”，强调意愿。该句型还有另外一种形式：Sooner than +动词原形……，(主句)主语+would+动词原形。主要是用于强调所比的对象，主句虽然放在后面，但不用倒装。
