【题目】B

It was a normal school day for senior Solymar Solis until an unexpected visitor arrived. Her dad, Sgt. Carlos Solis Melendez, surprised her by coming home early from Kuwait and visiting her unannounced at Spring Valley High School in South Carolina.

After serving in Kuwait for nine months, Melendez returned home a week earlier than his daughter expected. He held balloons and flowers in a classroom as he sat at a student’s desk to blend in with the crowd. "It came across my mind like, ‘How is she going to react?," he recalled(回忆) the heartwarming moment. "Is she going to be happy and run to me and hug me, or cry? That was all going on through my mind."

As unsuspecting Solymar entered the classroom, she was soon overcome with emotion, immediately bursting into tears and covering her mouth. She didn’t talk. She was just crying. She was overwhelmed with everything. She thought it was a dream.

Melendez was a single parent so while he was deployed (调度), he got his sister to live with his daughter. When he was coming back and talking to his sister, both of them came to the conclusion that they should do something special for his daughter. Melendez and his sister got in touch with the school, and they planned this whole being-in-the-classroom thing, and it turned out perfect.

The two are very much looking forward to some good daddy-daughter time now that he’s home. "It means everything," Melendez said of being able to surprise his daughter this way. "After all the sacrifices she’s made, she deserves all the special arrangements and special occasions and celebrations. I’ll do anything for my daughter. I believe I’m doing good parenting."

【1】 How did Solymar feel at first when entering the classroom?

A. She was eager to hug her father.

B. She felt everything was as usual.

C. She got excited at seeing her father.

D. She was surprised by what she saw.

【2】What was Melendezs attitude to the surprise?

A. Satisfied.

B. Astonished.

C. Touched.

D. Disappointed.

【3】 A. To get involved in her school life.

B. To teach her a lesson in a special way.

C. To build a strong emotional bond with her.

D. To make up for what she lost in her growth.

【答案】

【1】B

【2】A

【3】D

【解析】

【语篇解读】本文是记叙文。父爱如山,陪伴是孩子成长过程中不可缺失的东西。看这位从科威特服役归来的单亲父亲如何用惊喜来弥补女儿成长中所缺失的父亲的陪伴。

【1】考查细节理解。根据第三段中的"As unsuspecting Solymar entered the classroom"可知,Solymar走 进教室时未感觉到有任何异常。故选B。考生易误选D。而考生选D的依据多半是第三段中提及的"she was soon overcome with emotion, immediately bursting into tears and covering her mouth...She thought it was a dream",即Solymar见到父亲后的惊讶和难以置信,但题干中问的是当她走进教室时的最初反应,而此时 她对父亲精心为自己制造的惊喜还一无所知,故可排除D项。

【2】考查推理判断。根据倒数第二段最后一句中的"it turned out perfect"可推知,Melendez对自己为女 儿制造的惊喜是非常满意的。

【3】考查推理判断。根据最后两段的内容,尤其是最后一段中的"Melendez said of being able to surprise his daughter this way.After all the sacrifices shes made, she deserves all the special arrangements and special occasions and celebrations...good parenting."可推知, Melendez为女儿制造惊喜是为了弥补女儿成 长过程中所缺失的东西。

认真阅读下列短文,并根据所读内容在文章后表格中的空格里填入最恰当的单词。注意:每空格1个单词。

Are you a procrastinator?

Following a schedule and doing things on time is extremely important in today's busy world. Unfortunately, not everyone is good at doing this. Many people are procrastinators; they put off doing things that they need to until it's too late.

We all put off doing things at times. Statistics show that 90% of university students will often put off studying for a test or writing an important paper the night before, 25% of university students put off almost everything all the time. This more serious form of procrastination can result in a student dropping out of school. Students who put off doing their assignments once in a while get further and further behind in their studies. Before long, they feel completely helpless. For the chronic(长期的)procrastinator, often the only way to solve this problem is to quit school.

According to recent studies, there are three main reasons that students put off doing things. First, many have poor time-management skills and often try to do too much in too little time. In the end, these students often feel helpless and will put off doing many things they need to. Another reason why students put off doing things is that they feel a subject is boring and have difficulty concentrating on an assignment.These students will often avoid doing something because they don't like it. A third reason why many students put off doing things is that they often worry that their work will never be as good as it should be and fear failure of any kind, which, unfortunately , can often cause these students to put off doing any work at all.

Do you recognize any of these signs in yourself? If so, you may want to do something about your tendency towards procrastination. The following five tips may be helpful.

First, list the things in life that are important to you, and then list the reasons why you are at school or university. Look at the two lists and see where they match. Is there something you need to do in order to achieve a life goal?

Second, chose realistic goals for yourself; don't try to do more than you can.

Third, once you have identified our goals, list them and ask yourself "Which should I do first?" As you become more aware of what you need to do and when you need to do it, you will feel more in control and will be able to complete tasks on time.

Fourth, manage your time wisely. Create a schedule that allows adequate time for accomplishing a goal; for example, your schedule should give you enough time to study for and pass a test, as well as time to relax.

Finally, when you accomplish a goal, do something good for yourself as a reward.

If you believe that you are a chronic procrastinator, you should try to get help before it is too late. Talk to a professional, and discuss the problem. If you are a mild procrastinator, make sure to keep yourself motivated, but don't worry too much. Remember-we all put off doing things at times.
