Last week my youngest son and I visited my father at his new house in Arizona. He moved there a few years ago, and I wanted very much to see his new place and meet his friends.
In my earliest memories my father was a tall, handsome and successful man. He loved his work and family, but was uncomfortable with his children. As a child I loved him; as a school girl and young adult I was afraid of him. He seemed unhappy with me unless I got straight A’s in my study 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 try hard to think up things to say to protect myself.
On the first day of my visit, we went out with one of my father’s friends for lunch. We walked along that afternoon, did some shopping, ate on the street table, and laughed over my son’s funny talks. My father’s critical(挑剔的)air and strict rules were gone. He seemed so friendly and interesting to be with us.
The next day my dad pulled out his childhood pictures and told me many 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 so doing, I’m happy with my new friend. My dad, in this new home in Arizona, is back to me from where he was.

【小題1】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。從短文中這句話“He seemed unhappy with me unless I got straight A’s in my study and unhappy with my boyfriends if their fathers were not as “successful” as he was. ”可知如果我在學(xué)習(xí)中不獲得全A或者假如我男朋友的父親不像他一樣成功,他好像就不高興,說(shuō)明父親對(duì)作者的期望值太高,故選B。
【小題2】語(yǔ)義猜測(cè)題。短文中這句話“He seemed unhappy with me unless I got straight A’s in my study”的句意:如果我在學(xué)習(xí)中不獲得全A,他好像就不高興。A代表優(yōu)秀,故選A。

【小題4】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。從短文中這句話“He seemed so friendly and interesting to be with us.”可知作者到Arizona看望了父親之后,她感覺(jué)父親既友好又有趣,故選C。
【小題5】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。從短文中這幾句話“ After so many years, I’m at last seeing another side of my father. And in so doing, I’m happy with my new friend.”可知許多年之后,作者終于看到了父親的另一面,而且對(duì)自己的新朋友感到滿意,此處新朋友指作者的父親,故選B。

To me, music is food and water. I can’t live without it. I know this is not true for everybody. Many people don’t listen to music and they can get along quite well. But music is everywhere in our life. For example, when you watch films or TV plays, do you find them interesting if there is no music? You would find them boring. And when you are waiting for the train or the plane, you would like music because it makes the time seem shorter.
It is true that music is everywhere in our life. Some people like to sit by the sea and listen to the sound of the sea. Some enjoy listening to the singing of birds. Those sounds are some kinds of music. So music has meaning for everyone in some way or other. Of course, it has special meaning for people like me. We spend our lives playing or writing music.
Someone said, “Through music, a child goes into a world of beauty, learns to take care of others and makes his mind and body strong.” Music is an important part of our lives.

Today sending text messages(短信) through mobile phone(手機(jī)) is a part of our lives. According to a survey(調(diào)查), a third of the U.S. children send more than 100 text messages a day. Sending text messages is becoming more and more popular among young people in China, too. Children prefer text messages to communicate(交流) with friends no matter(不論) where they are, even under the noses of parents and teachers. It seems that some children are “addicted(上癮)” to sending text messages. In fact, sending too many text messages is bad for their lives, health and study. However, it isn’t all bad. It helps to improve our lives in some ways. Today many children greet(問(wèn)候) each other on holidays by sending text messages instead of writing paper cards. During the last Spring Festival, more than 15 billion(十億) text messages were sent in China. “Sending text messages helps save my pocket money,” said Wang Cheng, a friend of mine, “and it saves paper, too.” Many parents send their kids text messages instead of giving orders by mouth. It sounds more friendly. And children can accept them easily.

There are several ways you can find out about the countries and places you wish to visit. You can talk to friends who have traveled to the places, you can go and see a colour film about them, or you can read a travel book.
It seems that there are three kinds of travel books. The first are those that give a personal, subjective(主觀的) idea of travels which their writer has got himself. These books can be useful if the writers share their traveling experiences with others. The second kind are those books which give objective(客觀的) information of things to be done and seen. If a cultured personhas written such a book about the facts of a place, then it is more useful. The third kind are those books which are called “a guide” to some place or other. If they are good, they will describe and explain the place in detail. Like the first kind , they can be interesting and exciting, but their main purpose is to help the reader plan his travel in the most practical way.
Whatever kind of travel book you choose, you must make sure that the book does not describe everything as interesting, exciting or fantastic. You must also keep an open eyes on its date of publication(出版) because travel is very practical matter and many things change quickly in the 21st century. Finally, you should make sure that it’s easy to find the useful information for your travel.

A.travel maps | B.travel books |
C.travel films | D.travel places |
A.traveled | B.read books |
C.a(chǎn) lot of experience | D.surfed the Internet |
A.a(chǎn) good appearance | B.a(chǎn) good education |
