There was a time when I thought my dad didn't know a thing about being a good father. I couldn't
1
him ever say. lng the words "I love you". It seemed to me his only purpose in life was to say"
2
"to anywhere I wanted to go and any thing I wanted to do, including getting a
3
Some parents ght their kids cars when they got their driver's licenses._4_my dad--he said that I'd have to get a job and buy ay own.
So that's what I did. I got a job at a very nice restaurant
and
5_
every penny I could. And when I had enough to buy my car, I
6
! The day I brought that car home, my dad
was the first one I wanted to show it
7_
to. "Look, dad, a car of my own. If you ever want a ride, I'll only
8
you five
dollars." I offered with a smile.
"I see," was all he said.
One day, there was something wrong with my father's
truck So he needed a
9
to work. The sun wasn't even up
when we left the house,
10
it was already getting warm
out. It was going to be a
11
day. As I dropped my dad
off, I
12
him, dressed in his work clothes, getting his
13
from the trunk (尾箱) of my car. Watching his sun-
weathered face, and even from a distance I could tell there were
14
lines than 1 ever remembered being there before. I real ized how hard my dad works for his family. My father is a cement filnisher (水泥修整工).
In that instant, it
15
to me that he actually got down
on his hands and knees to sweat over hot concrete to make a living for his family. And he did this
16
, no matter how
hot it got. Never, not once, had I heard him
17
about it. To him we were "worth" it. And never once did he "charge" us
for it.
When he closed the trunk, his tools set off to the side, he
walked over to my window to
18
me five dollars. I rolled down the window and said "Coo&bye, dad.
Keep your five
'dollars. It's
19
me. Don't work too hard. I love you."
His eyes met mine, then glanced away in the direction of
his waiting tools, he cleared his
20
and said, "Oh, and...
me, too."
1. A. like
B. remember
C. forget
D. care
答案：
3. A.
car
B. friend
C. job
D. bus
答案：A
指導：面提到了作者買車。
4. A. Except
B. As
C. Not
D. Even
答案：C
指導：此處是說別人的父親總是主動給孩子買車，但自己的父親沒有這樣做。此處是否定概念，故用noto此處指作者的父親不會給自己買車，從否定概念可排除其他選項。
5. A. spent
B. earned
C. kep
D. saved
答案：D
指導：既然父親不給買車，作者只好“節(jié)省”每一個便土來自己買車。
6. A. did
B. changed
C. stopped
D. was
答案：A
指導：此處表示作者最終攢夠了錢買了車。Idid是替代性用法，相當于I had enough money to
buy my car。因為此處替代的是謂語動詞，因此其他選項不合語法。
7. A. out
B. in
C. up
D. off
答案：D
指導：show sth．off是固定短語，意為“炫耀”。show out 意為“把某人送出去”；show in多表示“領某人進來”；showup意為“出現(xiàn)；露面”。
8. A. pay
B. charge
C. offer
D. accept
答案：B
指導：charge用作動詞，當“收錢，收費”講，此處作者半開玩笑地向父親收搭車費。由具體的語境可知，此處不表示“付錢”“出錢”等。
9. A. ride
B. leave
C. trip
D. hurry
答案：A
指導：因為父親的車壞了，所以需要“搭車”上班。ride當“搭車”講。由父親要去上班這一語境可知其他選項不合題意。
10. A. as
B. although
C. but
D. since
答案：C
指導；此處說明天氣很熱，太陽還沒有升起來，但已經熱起來。前后文是轉折關系。從父親要去上班這一點可排除其他選項。
11. A. ordinary
B. hot
C. work
D. special
答案：B
指導：這又將是一個“大熱”天。作者的用意是用炎熱的天氣來襯托父親工作的艱辛。
12. A. helped
B. followed
C. left
D. watched
答案：D
指導：從后文看，作者是在觀察父親，因此此處用watched"注視”。
13. A. tools
B. clothes
C. luggage
D. bag
答案：A
指導：從下文看，作者的父親是一個干粗活重活的工人，因此此處父親應是從車尾箱里拿出"32具”。從父親去上班這一語境可排除其他選項。
14. A. fewer
B. more
C. longer
D. deeper
答案：B
指導：此處作者強調的是父親年齡增長，而且年復一年的辛勞，當然臉上的皺紋比以前“更多”了。根據(jù)常識作者不可能說父親臉上的皺紋更“長”了或更“深”了。
15. A. happened
B. seemed
C. occurred
D. appeared
答案：C
指導：看到父親臉上的皺紋，作者才聯(lián)想起父親的辛苦。It occurred to that表示“我突然想起了什么事情”，it是形式主語，that引導主語從句。it happened that當“恰巧……”講；“appeared to me that意為“在我看來……”，都不合題意。
16. A. now and then
B. day and night
C. all the time
D. day in and day out
答案：D
指導：此處作者強調父親工作的辛苦，當然是用“日復一日，夜復一夜”來形容他工作時間之長。day and night當“整天整夜”講，顯然人不可能整天整夜地工作。
17. A. talk
B. complain
C. ask
D. speak
答案：B
指導：此處表示父親任勞任怨，從不抱怨。此處關鍵是要明白作者的用意是在贊揚父親任勞任怨。
18. A. hand
B. pass
C. lend
D. take
答案：A
指導：此處父親下車后“遞給”我搭車錢。handsb．sth．“遞給某人某物”。pass sb.sth．指“把什么東西傳遞給某人”。此處的語境是父親“交給”作者錢。
19. A. for
B. at
C. on
D. in
答案：C
指導：It's。nme．為固定用法，意為“錢我付了”。
20. A. hands
B. eyes
C. throat
D. clothes
答案：C
指導：此處表示作者父親非常激動，清了清“喉嚨”才說了下面的話：我也愛你。明白了作者父親此時激動的心情再結合常識可排除其他選項。
