Last week my youngest son and I visited my father at his new home in Tucson, Arizona.He moved there a few years ago, and I was eager to see his new place and meet his friends.
My earliest memories of my father are a tall, handsome, successful man devoted to his work and his family, but uncomfortable with his children.As a child I loved him.He seemed unhappy with me unless I got straight A's and unhappy with my boyfriends if their fathers were not as “successful” as he was.Whenever I went out with him on weekends, I used to struggle to think up things to say, feeling on guard.
On the first day of my visit, we went out with one of my father's friends for lunch at an outdoor café.We talked along that afternoon, did some shopping, ate on the street table, and laughed over my son's funny facial expressions.Gone was my father's critical (挑剔的) air and strict rules.Who was this person I knew as my father, who seemed so friendly and interesting to be around? What had held him back before?
The next day Dad pulled out his childhood pictures and told me quite a few stories about his own childhood.Although our times together became easier over the years, I never felt closer to him at that moment.After so many years, I'm at last seeing another side of my father.And in doing so, I'm delighted with my_new_friend.My dad, in his new home in Arizona, is back to me from where he was.

试题分析:
【1】细节题。由第二段 “He seemed unhappy with me unless I got straight A’s and unhappy with my boyfriends if their fathers were not as “successful” as he was” 可知,在“我”小时候,除非“我”成绩全A父亲才会开心,而如果“我”男朋友的父亲不像他一样成功,他也会不开心,说明父亲对“我”期盼很高,D项正确。A项,他大多数时间很沉默,B项,他太自负,C项,他不爱自己的孩子,均未提及。故正确答案为D。
【2】推理判断题。作者在第二段最后一句中说到:“每当周末我和他一同出去时,我都要竭力想好要说些什么,并时刻提防不要说错。”选项A恰好反映了作者的心理状态。
【3】细节理解题。 从文章第三段第一句可以看出。
【4】推理判断题。从第三段第三、四句“父亲挑剔的神态和严厉的条条框框都不见了。我以前所熟悉的那个父亲到哪儿去了?在你身边的友善风趣的人又是谁呢?”不难看出,作者在前往Tucson看望父亲时,对父亲的看法有了巨大的转变,由过去的严厉苛刻变成了和蔼可亲。
【5】词义猜测题。根据最后一段第三句“在这么多年之后,我终于认识到了父亲的另外一面;在这一过程中,我真为结识了我的这位新朋友而感到高兴。”不难判断出作者提到的这位新朋友就是父亲本人。
