Question

Everyone should work hard more and succeed but it is not wise to get success at the cost of family and health.

There was once a hard-working father. He tried his best to support his wife and three children. He spent all his evenings attending classes, hoping to improve himself so that he could one day find a better-paid job. He hardly ate a meal together with his family. He worked and studied very hard because he wanted to   ①   his family   ①   the best things that money could buy.

   Whenever the family complained, he said that he was doing all this for them. But he often wished to spend more time with his family.

   ②The day came when the father was offered a good job. It paid quite well.

   However, the family still did not get to see the father for most of the week. He went on working hard, hoping to get the position(職位) of manager.

   The father’s hard work paid off and he was promoted(提升). Excitedly, he decided to hire a maid(女仆) so his wife did not have to do the housework any more. He also felt that their three-room house was no longer big enough. It would be nice for his family to be able to enjoy the comfort of a large house. The father decided to further his studies.

   As expected, the father’s hard work paid off again and he bought a beautiful house. He told his family that he had decided not to work so hard. From then on he was going to devote more time to his family.

   The next day, the father did not wake up.

【解析】

試題分析：本文講了一個(gè)父親，為了讓家人過(guò)上好日子，不斷的學(xué)習(xí)，晉升。慢慢的他們換了大房子，變有錢(qián)，但父親一直很忙，沒(méi)有時(shí)間陪家人。當(dāng)他認(rèn)為自己掙到了足夠的錢(qián)能退休的時(shí)候，他卻死去了。所以，這篇文章告訴我們要珍惜身體和健康，多和家人一起 

1.provide sb with sth向某人提供某物。

2.offer提供be offered被提供。      

3.根據(jù)：But he often wished to spend more time with his family. 但他經(jīng)常希望能有更多的時(shí)間陪家人�？芍�，他所缺少的就是陪家人的時(shí)間。                         

4.He was rewarded and got high position.的含義是他收到嘉獎(jiǎng)，得到了更高的職位。可知同義句為；The father’s hard work paid off and he was promoted. 父親的辛苦努力得到了回報(bào)他得到了提升。                    

5.父親不斷的學(xué)習(xí)，晉升。換來(lái)大房子，變錢(qián)，但父親沒(méi)有時(shí)間陪家人。當(dāng)他認(rèn)為自己能退休的時(shí)候，他卻死去了。所以，我們要珍惜身體和健康，多和家人一起。
