Dear teachers and classmates,

【分析】
先通读全文，理解短文是一篇毕业演讲，围绕校园生活的变化和对师生的感谢展开。解题时需结合语境逻辑、词汇含义、语法规则逐一分析每个小题：37题根据前后性格的转折选合适形容词；38题由than判断用比较级，结合后文新体育馆选对应形容词；39题根据跳舞的场所选名词短语；40题依据固定搭配want to do确定动词形式；41题结合全文过去时态选动词过去式。
【解析】
37题：前文提到“以前害羞安静”，转折后需选相反性格的词，active（活跃的）符合语境，hard-working（勤奋的）、polite（礼貌的）不合适，故选A。
38题：句中出现than，需用形容词比较级，后文提到“新体育馆”说明学校比以前更大，bigger符合，故选B。
39题：dance（跳舞）对应的场所是音乐教室，music room符合，art room（美术室）、computer room（电脑室）不合适，故选A。
40题：固定搭配want to do sth.中to后接动词原形，thank是原形，故选A。
