1.B形容词辨析。A.担忧的;B.兴奋的;C. 焦虑的; D. 渴望的。根据后面句的原因状语从句because we hadn't seen him for five months,可以推测在即将见到几个月未曾见面的丈夫(或者女儿的父亲)时,作者和女儿非常兴奋,答案选B

2.D动词辨析。 A.爱;B. 认为;C. 想象;D. 想念。从前句表示的原因because we hadn't seen him for five months,可以推测孩子会非常想念父亲,答案选D

3.A形容词辨析。A. 满的; B. 拥挤的;C. 空的; D. 超重的。根据下文作者的讲述可知从CharlotteMiami的航班是满载着乘客,而crowded则表达拥挤混乱之意,不符合飞机的实际状况,答案选A

4.B动词辨析。A. 到达 ;B. 到达; C. 着陆 ;D. 敲击。reach 是及物动词“到达”,不和介词搭配;land意思是“降落”,knock“撞、敲”均不符合语境,arrive in 是“到达”的意思,故答案选B

5.C动词辨析。A. 分离; B. 阻碍;C. 分开; D. 联系。根据and前面部分Kallie and I could not get seats together可知作者和女儿没有坐在一起,答案选C

6.D形容词辨析。A. 万一;B. 即使;C. 好像;D. 为的是。根据上文可知作者和女儿没有坐在一起,想和别人换座位为的是能坐在一起,方便照顾女儿,所以此处表示目的,选D

7.B动词辨析。A. 阻止; B. 拒绝;C. 同意;D. 许诺。根据两名乘客说的话they thought they should stay in their assigned seats.可知他们没有答应作者换座位的请求,答案选B

8.A动词辨析。A. 恐慌; B. 匆忙;C. 冲;D. 座位。从下文的叙述可知坐在作者前面的一个母亲和三个孩子都没有坐在一起,孩子们不能受到照顾,根据She was in tears,判断当时母亲和孩子们内心慌乱,答案选A

9.C副词辨析。A. 然而 ;B. 而且; C. 因此;D. 代替。由上句内容There had been a mistake in their boarding passes 和下句内容the whole family had been split up可知前后是因果关系,故答案选C

10.D副词辨析。A. 也; B. 甚至; C.曾经; D.也。根据上文内容可知作者想换座位遭到了别人的拒绝,此时的这位母亲同样也遭到了拒绝,答案选D

11.A形容词辨析。A. 担忧的; B. 好奇的;C. 特别的; D. 满意的。由情理判断母亲对于没在自己身边的孩子非常担心,答案选A,其余选项不合语境。

13.C名词辨析。 A.责任 ;B. 观看; C.木板,甲板;D. 斑点。on duty“值日”;on watch “值班,监视”;on board“在飞机或轮船上”on the spot“当场”。根据文章内容可知这是在飞机上发生的事情,所以答案选C

HEALTH
I get so busy taking care of everyone else, and I forget to take care of myself and this has to change. My health suffers and my weight suffers. I have to get my health in check , not only for me but because I promised my 9-year-old son. I’ll make good food and lifestyle choices. I miss being thin, and it’s time to get it back.
CELEBRATE
What good is having it if I’m not taking time to enjoy it? I have a wonderful job, a happy family, and so much to be thankful for. So how come I spend all my time working? Last summer my family took our first vacation in four years, the best thing I’ve done for myself and my family in a long time.

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.

I took my 9-year-old daughter,Suzan and 5-year-old son,Robbie to the shopping centre.As we got there,we saw a big sign that said,“Petting Zoo”.The kids jumped up and asked,“Daddy,can we go?”

Both my wife and I were out of work.However,I said,“Sure”,giving them a quarter each. They went away, leaving only fifty cents left in my pocket.

A petting zoo is made up of a hundred of little baby animals of all kinds.Kids pay their money and stay in the enclosure(围场)pleased with the little animals while their parents shop.

A few minutes later,I saw Suzan walking along behind me.I was surprised and asked what was wrong.

She said sadly,“Well,Daddy,a ticket for Petting Zoo costs fifty cents.So I gave Robbie my quarter.” Then she said the most beautiful thing I ever heard.She repeated the family motto(座右铭),which is “Love is Action!”

I knew clearly no one loves little animals more than Suzan. She had watched both my wife and me do and say "Love is Action!” for years,and now she had put it into her lifestyle.It had become part of her,because she knew the whole family motto.It’s not only “Love is Action”;it’s “Love is SACRIFICAL(牺牲的)Action!" Love always pays a price.

I was moved.We went back to the Petting Zoo.Suzan stood with her hands and chin(下巴)resting on the fence and just watched Robbie go crazy petting and feeding the animals.I had fifty cents burning a hole in my pocket. I put my hand into my pocket and took out the money.Sure,I must do that !
