My father died in December. He had spent the last several years in hospital, and my mother spent a lot of her time him. That is without doubt, a situation for any family. And the was a team of fairly frustrated family members.

My biggest frustration was trying to why he didn’t make choices that would him to be involved more fully in the lives of his grandchildren. Yet he each and every one of them. Every morning he asked my mother which of his grandbabies was going to that day. He had frequent visits from his collection of loving grandkids. Kids would have the place up instantly—toys everywhere, cushions off the couches and the TV channel to their station. Every visit was a kid invasion into his space. Interestingly, he was not at all bothered by the or chaos at all. He was never with them and he certainly never shouted at any child. Visits ended with and kisses.

I felt that relationship wasn’t good enough because he didn’t actually do anything my children. My dad didn’t read to the children, and certainly played a board game or did a puzzle with them. He didn’t take them out for or do any of the other things I saw active grandparents doing with their grandchildren. It made me sad that he was to get on with the kids.

A couple of weeks after his death, my 9-year-old daughter turned up in my bedroom at midnight to share a

of him done by herself. Included in the picture were several messages and —one for each day since he had died. The most striking one to me was“I loved EVERYTHING about you, Grandpa”.

Apparently, I was . All that time I thought he wasn’t doing anything with his grandchildren, but he was very actively doing the thing that was most to them. He loved them. And it was all they needed.

【解析】

试题分析：作者对父亲(作者的公公)埋怨颇多。主要埋怨他不同孙辈们一起玩耍。其实作者误解了父亲。

父亲去世后，她的孩子拿出他们所画的一幅画，画中写道“爷爷，我爱你的一切”深深震撼了她。其实父

亲所做的一切对她的孩子们是多么的重要。

1.B 父亲生病住院，按常理说：母亲应该花时间去照料(taking care of)父亲。其余三项“为……准

备，信任，盼望”都不符合语境。

2.C 在父亲生病，母亲照料父亲的情况下，毫无疑问家务事没有人做了，所以应该出现了“困难的

(difficult)情况”，而不至于出现了“危险的(dangerous)情况(如果这样推测就有点夸大其辞)”；其余两项 “个

人的，令人厌烦的” 结合下文的(frustrated令人沮丧的)应排除。

3.A由上下文可以推测这里讲的是结果(result)。结果造成整个一家人都陷入了令人沮丧的境地。其

余三项“解决的办法，奖励/报酬，复习/回顾”都不符合语境。

4.D本句比较长有两个空格，所以与下一题连起来考虑。根据下文的叙述，我们可以这样理解本句

话的意思：作者感到最头疼的是要尽力去理解父亲为什么就没有做出选择让自己更加充分地融入到孙辈们

的生活中去的呢(从下文可以看出，父亲是不去看望孩子们的而是孩子到他们的住处玩)。explain解释；

describe描述；accept接受。

5.B expect期望；allow让，允许；force强迫；persuade劝服。

6.C从“Yet”的转折语气中，我们可以推测“父亲还是爱每一个孩子的”。其余三项的意思分别为

“尊敬，忽视/不重视，责怪”不符合语境。

7.C每天早上父亲都会问母亲当天哪一个孩子来玩(访visit)。leave离开，留下；cry 哭泣；perform

表演。

8.B从下文可以看出：孩子们常常把房间弄得乱七八糟的(messed up)。set up建立，创立；given up

放弃；lit up 点亮。

9.B孩子们常常把房间弄得乱七八糟——到处是玩具和从沙发上拉下的沙发垫子，把电视频道调到

他们喜欢的台。introduced 介绍；switched 转换；pointed 指；check检查。

10.D与下文相匹配的词应该是“noise”。有趣的是，父亲对孩子的吵闹声或是叽叽喳喳声一点儿也

不感到厌烦。impression印象；alarm惊恐，警报，闹铃；expression表情，言语。

11.D从下文“父亲从来没有对任何孩子大喊大叫过一声”可以看出“父亲对孩子们是何等的耐心

(never impatient)”。careful小心谨慎；intelligent勤奋的，智力的；inconvenient不方便的。

12.D根据下文的“kisses”可以推测应该是“拥抱(hugs)”。tears眼泪水；quarrels 争吵；tricks戏

法，把戏，计谋，诀窍，骗局，恶作剧。

13.B do sth.with sb和某人一起做某事，在本文中我们可以理解为“与孩子们一起玩耍”。作者觉得

祖孙之间的关系还是不够好，因为父亲事实上就没有跟孩子们一起玩耍过。

14.C承上文的否定和下文的“or”，这里应该用否定词“never(没有)”。父亲没有读过书给孩子们听，

从来没有跟他们玩过桌面游戏，也没有跟他们猜过谜语。Frequently经常；always总是；occasionally偶尔。

15.A带孩子出去散步(walks)。books书；jokes玩笑；interests兴趣，利益。

16.C fail to do=cannot do。hope to do希望做某事；offer to do 主动做某事；promise to do答应做某

事。令作者悲伤的是父亲没有与孩子们相处。

17.D下文(picture)有同义词复现，故选drawing(图画)。Dream梦想；plan计划；story故事。

18.A下文的““I loved EVERYTHING about you, Grandpa”就是“statement(文字陈述)”。 photos照

片；suggestions建议；problems问题。

19.C 很显然作者错怪了父亲，所以“我错(wrong)了”。 guilty负罪感，内疚的；rude粗鲁的；firm

坚定的。

20.B 父亲所做的事情对作者的孩子是多么的重要(important)。honest诚实的；normal正常的；equal

相等的，平等的。

When I was about 12, I had an enemy, a girl who liked to point out my shortcomings. Week by week her list grew: I was very thin, I wasn’t a good student, I talked too much, I was too proud, and so on. I tried to hear all this as long as I could. At last, I became very angry. I ran to my father with tears in my eyes.
He listened to me quietly, then he asked. “Are the things she says true or not? Janet, didn’t you ever wonder what you’re really like ? Well, you now have that girl’s opinion. Go and make a list of everything she said and mark the points that are true. Pay no attention to the other things she said.”
I did as he told me. To my great surprise, I discovered that about half the things were true. Some of them I couldn’t change (like being very thin), but a good number I could—and suddenly I wanted to change. For the first time I go to fairly clear picture of myself.
I brought the list back to Daddy. He refused to take it.“That’s just for you,” he said.“You know better than anyone else the truth about yourself. But you have to learn to listen, not just close your ears in anger and feeling hurt. When something said about you is true, you’ll find it will be of help to you. Our world is full of people who think they know your duty. Don’t shut your ears. Listen to them all, but hear the truth and do what you know is the right thing to do.”
Daddy’s advice has returned to me at many important moments. In my life, I’ve never had a better piece of advice.
【小题1】What did the father do after he had heard his daughter’s complaint?

A．He told her not to pay any attention to what her “enemy” had said.

B．He criticized (批评) her and told her to overcome her shortcomings.

C．He told her to write down all that her “enemy” had said about her and pay attention only to the things that were true.

D．He refused to take the list and have a look at it.

【小题2】Why did her father listen to her quietly?

A．Because he believed that what her daughter’s “enemy” said was mostly true.

B．Because he had been so angry with his daughter’s shortcomings that he wanted to show
this by keeping silent for a while.

C．Because he knew that his daughter would not listen to him at that moment.

D．Because he wasn’t quite sure which girl was telling the truth.

【小题3】Which do you think would be the best title for this passage?

A．Not an Enemy, but the Best Friend

B．The Best Advice I’ve Ever Had

C．My Father

D．My Childhood

D
My father’s family name being Pirrip, and my Christian name Philip, my infant tongue could
make of both names nothing longer or more explicit than Pip. So, I called myself Pip, and came to
be called Pip.
As I never saw my father or my mother, and never saw any likeness of either of them (for their days were long before the days of photographs), my first imagination regarding what they were like, were unreasonably from their tombstones. The shape of the letters on my father’s gave me a strange idea that he was a square, dark man , with curly black hair. From the character and turn of the words, “Also Georgiana Wife of the Above,” I drew a childish conclusion that my mother was freckled（长雀斑的）and sickly.
Ours was wet country, down by the river, within, as the river wound, twenty miles of the sea. My first most vivid and broad impression of the identity of things, seems to me to have been gained on an unforgettable cold afternoon towards evening. At such a time I found out for certain, that this place overgrown with nettles（荨麻）was the churchyard（墓地）;and that Philip Pirip, and also Georgiana wife of the above, were dead and buried; and that Alexander, Bartholomew, Abraham, Tobias, and Roger, infant children to the aforesaid, were also dead and buried. Suddenly I began to feel lonely and sad and afraid. I began to cry.
"Hold your noise!" cried a terrible voice, as a man started up from among the graves at the side of the church porch. "Keep still, you little devil, or I'll cut your throat!"
A fearful man, all in grey, with a great iron on his leg. A man with no hat, and with broken shoes, and with an old rag tied round his head. A man who had been shivered; and whose teeth chattered in his head as he seized me by the chin.
"Oh! Don't cut my throat, sir," I pleaded in terror. "Pray don't do it, sir."
"Tell us your name!" said the man. "Quick!"
"Pip, sir."
"Once more," said the man, staring at me. "Give it mouth!"
"Pip. Pip, sir."
“Show us where you live ,” said the man. “Point out the place!”
I pointed to where our village lay, among the alder-tree, a mile or more from the church. The man, after looking at me for a moment, turned mw upside down, and emptied my pockets. There was nothing in them but a piece of bread. When the church came to itself—for he was so sudden and strong that he made to go head over heels before me, and I saw the steeple（尖塔）under my feet—when the church came to itself, I say, I was seated on a high tombstone, trembling, while he ate the bread hungrily.
“You young dog,” said the man, licking his lips, “what fat cheeks you have got.”
I believe they were fat, though I was at that time undersized for my years, and not strong.
“Darn me If I couldn’t eat them,” said the man, with a threatening shake of his head.
I carefully expressed my hope that he wouldn’t, and held tighter to the tombstone on which he had put me; partly, to keep myself upon it; partly, to keep myself from crying.
“Now look here!” said the man. “Where’s your father?”
“There sir!” said I .
He started, made a short run, and stopped and liked over his shoulder.
“There sir!” I explained. “That’s his grave.”
“Oh!” said he, coming back.
“And mother’s there too, sir. And my five little brothers.”

B．Pip imagined what his parents liked through their photographs.
C．Pip’s parents and little brothers were killed by the man.
D．Pip was probably shorter or thinner than most children of his age.
69．What is the fearful man most likely to be?
A．An escaped prisoner.       B．A minister of the church.
C．A tower watcher.           D．Pip’s parents’ enemy.
70．Which of the following is right according to the passage?
A．It was the words on the tombstones that made mw know of my parents’ appearance.

A
If I were writing a history of my family, some of the darkest moments recorded would be those surrounding Christmas trees．One would certainly think otherwise; selecting and putting up our trees have always been filled with risk．For example, one afternoon dangerously close to Christmas Eve my mother bought what she thought to be a bargain, a glorious tree that was so full and tall that we could hardly get it onto the house．Once we did, my father immediately realized that we would have to hire a carpenter to build a stand for it．Another December, perhaps the very next one, we bought a tree earlier than we ever had before．We were happy with its shape and delighted that its size was manageable．We easily placed it in a stand, decorated（装饰）it from top to bottom, and then self-satisfiedly sat back by the fire in its soft light．Two or three days passed and the truth could not be hidden; we had bought a tree cut so long ago that its needles were coming off．There was nothing to do undecorated it, take it down, and begin treeshopping again．Our most recent Christmas tree offered still another difficult task．When we brought it home, once again it seemed larger than it had in the great outdoors．To complicate matters, we had bought a new stand, one whose nuts and bolts worked more mysteriously than those of our old stand．I persuaded two young neighbors to stop playing basketball and to help us get the tree into the house and set it correctly in the stand．Unfortunately, no one noticed the mud on our helpers’ shoes, so only after removing several reddish brown spots from the carpet were we able to discuss the question of where the lights and ornaments（装饰）were stored．Perhaps those who cut their own trees have tales more painful than these．I don’t care to hear them, as my family’s experiences are enough to cause me to make the following suggestion：“Let’s forget the tree next Christmas．Let’s simply hang some flowers on the front door and over the mirror in the hall．”
41．The darkest moments in the writer’s family were with the fact that________．
A．the family bought big Christmas trees

42．We can learn from the passage that the writer would like to________．
A．forget about Christmas
B．get the neighbors to put up their trees
C．buy a better tree
D．make some other decorations to celebrate Christmas rather than the tree
43．When the writer said“mother bought what she thought to be a bargain”, he means________．
A．she bought the tree at a cheap price
B．she didn’t really want to buy it
C．she had to bargain hard with the salesman
D．she couldn’t afford a more expensive one
44．Which of the following can be the best for the passage?
A．How to Select a Christmas Tree B．No More Christmas Tree for US
C．Dark Moments of Life D．Christmas without Trees

I first went to Harrow in the summer term. The school had the biggest swimming pool I had ever seen. It was a good joke to come up behind a naked boy, and push him into the pool. I made quite a habit of this with boys of my own size or less.
One day I saw a boy wrapped in a towel on the side of the pool. He was no bigger than I was, so I thought him a fair game. Coming secretly behind, I pushed him in, holding on to his towel so that it would not get wet, I was surprised to see an angry face come out from the water, and a being of great strength masking its way by face strokes (猛力地划)to the shore. I fled, but in vain. He overtook me, seized me violently, and threw me into the deepest part of the pool. I soon climbed out on the other side, and found myself surrounded by a crowd of younger boys.” Do you know what you have done?” they said, “It’s Amery; he is in Grade Six. He is champion at gym; he has got his football honor.”
I was frightened and felt ashamed. How could I tell his position when be was wrapped in a bath towel and so small.” He didn’t seem pleased at all, so I added in a most brilliant word,” My father, who is a great man, is also small.” At this be laughed, and after some general words about my rude behavior and how I had better be careful in the future, signified the incident was closed.
