It’s not easy to be an astronaut’s son.Everybody expects you to be special or perfect. I often wonder how my father ever had a son like me. I mean he’s so special and so good at everything he does. Even in middle school he was monitor and captain of the football team.
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 One morning my teacher said there would be a Father’s Day writing competition for the whole school.“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. No, I 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 he hugged me for hours when my dog Spotty was killed by a car. Yes, these were the things I was going to write. To me,he wasn’t just a 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(失望) at the same time. The second prize was announced. I t was me. I went up to the stage and read what I had written,“My father’s son”.When I finished,Dad put his hand on my shoulder.“Son,this is 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 a Nobel Prize, but it was enough just to be my father’s son.

解析試題分析:這篇短文中作者覺得作為名人的兒子是不容易的,他的爸爸是一名宇航員。人們都覺得名人的兒子也應(yīng)該是特殊的、完美的。作者在一篇作文中寫了自己眼里的父親,回憶了和父親在一起的難忘的時(shí)光。作者的作文題目就是My father’s son,這篇作文還獲了獎(jiǎng)。在英雄父親的眼里,作者就是他最大的驕傲。
【小題1】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文章開頭的第一句話It’s not easy to be an astronaut’s son可知,作者說做一名宇航員的兒子是不容易的。宇航員也應(yīng)是famous person 的一個(gè)代表,故由此我們可以推測,選C。lucky 幸運(yùn)的;natural 自然的;hard 難的;pleasant 令人愉快的。
【小題2】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文章的第二段I often dream about being some kind of hero or doing something special—like saving a child from a burning building可知,作者也夢(mèng)想著成為一名英雄人物,或者做一些很特別的事---就如從著火的大樓里救了一個(gè)孩子。由此可知,作者去著火的大樓里救孩子是為了成為一個(gè)像父親一樣的英雄。故選B。
【小題3】推理判斷題。根據(jù)短文第四段的描述可知,作者眼里的父親是:當(dāng)他做惡夢(mèng)時(shí),他的爸爸會(huì)在黑暗中陪著他;當(dāng)他心愛的小狗被車撞死時(shí),他的爸爸會(huì)擁抱他。在別人的眼里,他的爸爸是一名宇航員,而對(duì)作者來說,他不光是宇航員,他是作者的父親。故在作文里,作者會(huì)寫那些他和爸爸一起經(jīng)歷的難忘的事情。故選C。
【小題4】主旨大意題。這篇文章中作者談到了做名人的兒子是不容易的,而作者就是名人的兒子,他的爸爸是一名宇航員。人們都覺得名人的兒子也應(yīng)該是特殊的、完美的。在父親的光環(huán)籠罩下,作者也想成為一個(gè)像父親一樣的英雄。作者寫了一篇作文,在作文中,作者回憶了和父親在一起的難忘的時(shí)光,作文題目就是My father’s son,。這篇作文還獲了獎(jiǎng)。用這個(gè)作為文章的題目是最合適的,因?yàn)樵谟⑿鄹赣H的眼里,兒子是他最大的驕傲。故選B。

Some people make you feel comfortable when they are around. You spend an hour with them and feel as if you have known them half your life. These people have something in common. And once we know what it is, we can try to do it ourselves.
How is it done? Here are several skills that good talkers have. If you follow the skills, they'll help people feel relaxed and make friends with them quickly.
First of all, good talkers ask questions. Almost anyone, no matter how shy he is, will answer a question. One well-known businesswoman says, "At business lunches, I always ask people what they did that morning. It's a common question, but it will get things going." From there you can move on to other matters—sometimes to really personal questions. And how he answers will let you know how far you can go.
Second, once good talkers have asked questions, they listen to the answers. This point seems clear, but it isn't. Your questions should have a point and help to tell what sort of person you are talking to. And to find out, you really have to listen carefully and attentively. Real listening at least means some things. First it means not to change the subject of conversation. If someone sticks to one topic, you can take it as a fact that he's really interested in it. Real listening also means not just listening to words, but to tones of voice. If the voice sounds dull, then, it's time for you to change the subject.
Finally, good talkers know well how to deal with the moment of parting. If you're saying good-bye, you may give him a firm handshake and say, "I've really enjoyed meeting you." If you want to see that person again, don't keep it a secret. Let people know what you feel, and they may walk away feeling as if they've known you half their life.
【小題1】Asking questions might be a quite good and suitable way _______.
A.for you to make more and more new friends |
B.to begin your business talks |
C.to get the conversation going smoothly |
D.for you to make a deep and lasting impression on others |
A.make clear what kind of person he is |
B.listen to his reply attentively |
C.wait quietly and patiently for his answer |
D.go on asking him more questions |
A.a(chǎn)re good at making any topic interesting |
B.never talk too much or too little |
C.a(chǎn)lways speak in a gentle way |
D.know how and when they should change the topic of the talk |
A.you may take him as your lifelong true friend |
B.it seems necessary for you to let him know it |
C.it's proper for you to give him a second handshake |
D.it'll be helpful for you to have further understanding of him |

Years ago, I lived in a building in a town. There was another building across from mine, and it was only a few metres away. There lived a woman whom I had never met. I could see her sit by the window each afternoon, drinking or reading.
Several months later, I noticed her window was very dirty. Everything was not clear through the window. I wondered why the woman didn't wash her window.
One sunny morning, I decided to clean up my apartment, including washing my windows. Late in the afternoon when I finished the cleaning, I sat down for a rest by the window. What a surprise! The woman sitting by her window was clearly seen! Her window was clean! Suddenly, I realized I had made a mistake. I was watching her through my dirty window all the time!
That was quite an important lesson for me. Since then, whenever I wanted to judge (判斷) someone, I asked myself first, "Am I looking at him through the dirty window of my heart? ”Then I try to clean the window of my own world so that I may see the world clearly.

One windy spring day, I noticed young people having fun using the wind to fly their kites. Colorful creations of different shapes and sizes filled the skies like beautiful birds flying and dancing. As the strong winds blew against the kites, a string kept them in control.
Instead of blowing away with the wind, they rose against it to achieve great heights. They shook and pulled, but the restraining (控制的) string and the cumbersome (笨重的) tail kept them in control, facing upward and against the wind. As the kites struggled against the string, they seemed to say, “Let me go! Let me go! I want to be free!” They rose beautifully even when they fought the restriction of the string. Finally, one of the kites succeeded in breaking loose(松散的). “Free at last,” it seemed to say. “Free to fly with the wind.”
Yet freedom(自由) simply put it in the control of an unkind wind. It fell down to the ground and landed in a mass of weeds and string against a dead bush. “Free at last”, free to lie powerlessly in the dirt, to be blown helplessly along the ground, and to stop lifelessly against the first obstacle (障礙物).
How much like kites we sometimes are. The Heaven gives us adversity (逆境) and rules, rules to follow from which we can grow and get strength. Some of us break away from the rules so hard that we never reach the heights we might get to. We keep part of the rules and never rise high enough to get our tails off the ground.
Let us each rise to the great heights, knowing that some of the rules that we may be angry about are in fact the strong force that helps us achieve.
【小題1】Why does the writer write the first paragraph?
A.Because it was the first time that he had seen young people flying kites. |
B.Because he wants to share his feelings in nature with the readers. |
C.Because he wants to tell the readers how to make beautiful kites. |
D.Because he wants to use readers’ similar life experience to understand the article better. |
A.a(chǎn)nyone who wants no restraints is sure to be a sad end |
B.what a pity it is that one kite flew down to the ground |
C.man with freedom can’t be like that kite which fell down |
D.the unkind wind is the cause of the fallen kite’s failure |
A.束縛 | B.放縱 | C.搖擺 | D.牽引 |
A.without restrictions and rules we can make endless progress |
B.kites are good examples to those who want to get freedom |
C.restrictions are necessary for us human beings |
D.we don’t need any freedom at all |

I’m too busy!”
The boy soon became silent as tears fell down from his big blue eyes. Feeling sorry, the father said, “You can finish the kisses later .”
The boy said nothing but quietly walked away. That evening the father said, “Come and finish the kisses now, Andrew!” But the boy didn’t.
