It’s not easy to be an astronaut’s son.Everybody expects you to be special or perfect.Ioften wonder how my father ever had a son like me.I mean he’s so special and so good ateverything he does.Even in middle school he was class president and captain of the footballteam.
Well,to be honest,I often dream about being some kind of hero or doing something
special—like saving a child from a burning building or discovering a new star.I was daydreaming at school one morning when my teacher said there would be a Father’s Day writing competition for the whole sch001.“I hope we have a winner right here in my class.”
When I got home,I started to think about what to write.My father is an astronaut.N0,wouldn’t start like that.That was the way others saw him.How did I see my father? Hmm.
I saw him sitting with me in the dark when I had a terrible dream.I remembered how hehugged me for hours when my dog Spotty was killed by a car.Yes,these were the things Iwas going to write.To me,he wasn’t just a world—famous astronaut.He was my dad.
My parents and l went to school Thursday night.There were so many people in the big[]hall! My dad looked at me,and I shrugged(聳肩).
The third prize was announced and it was not me.1 was relieved(釋然)and disappointed at the same time.The second prize was announced.It was me.
1 went up to the stage and read what I had written,“My father’s son”.When I finished,the people stood up and cheered.I saw my father blowing his nose.Tears were running down my mother’s face.Dad cleared his throat and put his hand on my shoulder.“Son,thisis the proudest moment of my life.”
It was the proudest moment of my life,too.Maybe I’ll never be a great hero or win aNobel Prize,but it was enough just to be my father’s son.
根據(jù)材料內(nèi)容選擇最佳答案,并將其標(biāo)號填入題前括號內(nèi)。

4. A 從后面The second prize was announced.It was me可知作者得獎(jiǎng)了,故選A。作者并未得諾貝爾獎(jiǎng),故B錯(cuò);C與D只是作者的想像,選A。
5. B 此題要從全文來看,主要講的是父親與兒子的事情,故不難得出B最合適,其它答案并不能概括全文,有些只是文章講的一個(gè)方面。選B。

Dear Alice,
I just received your letter. And I was very surprised to know that you decided to drop out of school and wanted to be a model (模特).
Being a model for a living is not easy. In fact, a famous person like me has a lot of problems that you couldn’t see. I can’t eat what I like, even though I’m very hungry. Keeping thin makes me look more beautiful on the stage because no one would like to see a heavy model.
Besides, I have to wear a heavy coat in the hot sun, in a swimming suit in the cold air. And practicing walking nicely every day is tiring for me.
You might say I made much money from modeling. But my dear niece (侄女), you have to know that money is, nothing, knowledge is everything. School is important and everyone should go to school for a certain period of time. The longer they stay at school, the better they will be. Very often, I hope I can give up my job and continue my studies at school. But it is very difficult for me to go back to school again. I am too old to go back to school now.
You are a pretty young girl with a bright future. You only have one year to finish your studies in high school. A year is really short. Please do consider my words carefully before you decide. Of course, there is only one thing I care about, and that is your happiness.
Love,
Emma
