When he lked at me.it was clear my father wasn’t sure wh I was. And as I lked back at him. I wasn’t sure wh he was, either.
My father had just gne thrugh heart surgery and staved fr six days in intensive care. He’d returned t the hspital where he’d wrked fr 40 years. It was the hspital where all his children had been brn. The dctr said that he might have a lng perid f cnfusin after the surgery. And because he’s eighty-six, it might be many mnths befre he returns t nrmal. It’s als pssible that he may never be “nrmal” again.
I sat there in this hspital rm, spn-feeding the man I’ve seen as a pwerful and capable man all my life. It felt like the full circle f life had cme arund us. It felt gd t supprt him, and I wished him t be “nrmal” again. I wasn’t sure if I was ready the full meaning f it: My father may never pwerful and capable persn again.
Pain and suffering have visited my family, as they will visit all families. And while we hesitate t face pain and suffering, they have great lessns t us. Pain and suffering are well utside f the bundaries f ur everyday life. When they cme, they break these bundaries and turn ur wrld upside dwn. We becme a family with all f the thers wh have knwn pain and suffering. And we have anther chance t cnsider what’s truly imprtant in ur lives. This crisis will pass, and we’ll all be changed by it. The healing hands f time will d their wrk. I’m thankful that I’ve tld my father everything I’ve wanted t say t him. And I’m thankful t have my family t lean n during this difficult time. We’ll all be challenged by this t shw mre supprt, care and lve.
This is as it shuld be. Smetimes, it takes a crisis t remind us why we’re all here.

Ⅱ.七選五
Yu’ve decided yur child is spiled, and yu want t d smething abut it. Is it t late? Nt necessarily. Here are fur tips frm an expert fr getting yur child t behave well.
1 Yu’ve spiled yur child by giving him r her t much fr t little. Yu can crrect this by helping yur child t learn t wrk harder fr reward and understand that nt all gd behavir is rewarded.
2 Fr example, at first, insist that yur daughter put a few tys away befre she gets a snack, and gradually increase the amunt f wrk required fr each reward.
Dn’t verreact(反應(yīng)過激)t crying. When children dn’t get what they want, their natural behavir is t cry. If yu react every time yur child cries, yu may be denying(拒絕給予)him r her an imprtant chance t learn smething. 3
Prepare fr a fight. At the beginning, children’s demands will increase when they find ut parents are nt ging t give them the new tys they want. When it happens, be careful nt t give in just because the child shuts. 4
Stick t the prgram. Yur child will prbably be upset when yu begin making changes. 5 It means the requirements are getting stricter and that yur child is adjusting (適應(yīng)). Remember: Give it time, and dn’t give up.
A. Cut dwn n rewards.
B. That’s nt necessarily a bad thing.
C. Start ut by making changes slwly.
D. Rather, wait until the child calms dwn.
E. Dn’t try t reasn with him r her abut the situatin.
F. There is little dubt that things will get wrse befre they get better.
G. As a parent, yu need t knw when t cmfrt a child and when t simply walk away.

答案:
I.語篇解讀:本文是一篇夾敘夾議文。在作者眼里,父親一向都是強(qiáng)壯能干的,但是現(xiàn)在父親年事已高,住院動了心臟手術(shù)后已經(jīng)不認(rèn)識作者了。作者感慨痛苦與苦難會讓人變得更堅(jiān)強(qiáng),痛苦終將過去,家人是我們的依靠。
1.C 細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第三段第一句“I sat there in this hspital rm,spn-feeding the man I've seen as a pwerful and capable man all my life.”中的 pwerful and capable可知,在作者眼里,父親以前是強(qiáng)壯能干的,所以選C。
2.A 推理判斷題。根據(jù)第四段倒數(shù)第二句“And I’m thankful t have my family t lean n during this difficult time.”及文章最后一段內(nèi)容可知,作者感恩困難時期家
人的支持,從另外一方面講,是痛苦和苦難讓作者知道了生活的意義,所以選A。
3.B 推理判斷題。文章是夾敘夾議文,作者首先講述了父親手術(shù)之后的情況,在最后兩段里,作者感慨痛苦與苦難會讓我們吸取教訓(xùn),會給我們機(jī)會去思考生命中真正重要的是什么,并讓我們認(rèn)識到生活的意義。也就是說,痛苦與苦難會給我們一些有益的東西,所以選B。
II.語篇解讀:本文是一篇說明文。文章介紹了如何糾正被寵壞的孩子的行為。
1.A 下文中的“by giving him r her t much fr t little”呼應(yīng)A項(xiàng)中的“Cut dwn”,且下文中的“helping yu child t behavir is rewarded”和A項(xiàng)意思相符。
2.C 下文中的“gradually increase”與C項(xiàng)中的“making changes slwly”相呼應(yīng)。
3. G G項(xiàng)是對上文描述的不過度回應(yīng)孩子哭鬧的正確做法的闡述。
4. D 由本段中的“Prepare fr a fight.”和“nt t give in Just because the child shuts”可知,此處應(yīng)給出正確做法,故D項(xiàng)符合語境。
5.B B項(xiàng)承上啟下,由下文中的“It means…is adjusting(適應(yīng))”可知,上文中提到的“Yur child will prbably be upset”的狀況也不一定就是壞事,故B項(xiàng)符合語境。
