In a class I teach adults.I gave the task to “Go to someone you love, and tell them that you love them.”At the beginning of the next   1  , one of the students began by saying, “I was   2   with you last week when you gave us this   3  .But as I began driving home my conscience(良心)started talking.Then I knew   4   who I needed to say ‘I love you’to.Five years ago, my father and I had a   5   and never really resolved it.We   6   seeing each other unless we absolutely had to at family gatherings.We hardly   7   to each other.So by the time I got home, I had   8   myself I was going to tell my father I loved him.Just   9   that decision seemed to lift a heavy load off my chest.At 5∶30, I was at my parents’house ringing the doorbell, praying that Dad would   10   the door.  11   luck would have it, Dad did answer the door.I didn’t   12   any time-I took one step in the door and said, ‘Dad, I just   13   over to tell you that I love you.’It was as if a change came over my dad.Before my   14   his face softened, the wrinkles(皺紋)seemed to   15   and he began to cry.He   16   out and hugged me and said, ‘I love you too, son, but I’ve never been able to say it.’But that’s not   17   my point.Two days after that visit, my dad had a heart attack and is in the hospital.I don’t even know if he’ll   18   it.So my   19   to all of you is this:Don’t wait to do the things you know need to be done.What if I had waited to tell my dad?Take the   20   to do what you need to and do it now!”

解析:

(1)

由下文中的last week可得提示,且此處應(yīng)與首句呼應(yīng)。

(2)

從下面的but一詞可知,起初對老師布置的任務(wù)非常不滿,所以用angry。

(3)

由本段第一句中的“I gave the task”可知答案。

(4)

在駕車回家的途中,經(jīng)過與自己良心的對話,“確切地”知道了應(yīng)該向誰說“I love you”。

(5)

從下面的“never really resolved”(實際上從來都沒有解決)可知,應(yīng)該是“分歧,意見不和”。

(6)

從前一句可知,他們避免相互見面。

(7)

除非不得已才在家庭聚會上碰面,即使見了面也幾乎不說話。

(8)

因為和父親一直存在著矛盾,幾乎不說話,所以現(xiàn)在要向父親說“我愛你”,確實很難,得先說服自己。

(9)

make a decision為固定搭配,意為“做出決定”。

(10)

answer the door“開門”。后一句也有提示。

(11)

只有as才有“正如……一樣”的含義,與上一句意義吻合。

(12)

從下面作者的動作“I took one step in the door and said”可知。kill the time意為“消磨時光”;treasure the time意為“珍惜時光”。

(13)

come over“越過一段距離過來”;go over“去那邊,復(fù)習(xí)”;glance over“瀏覽”;look over“檢查”。只有A項符合文意。

(14)

下面談到的“父親的臉,皺紋,哭”都是作者看到的,所以選eyes。

(15)

從“his face softened”可知,他的皺紋似乎消失了。

(16)

“擁抱”這個動作應(yīng)該是先“伸出手”。stretch out意為“伸展身體”;work out 意為“算出,鍛煉”;run out意為“跑出去,用完”。

(17)

通過一句話就與父親化解了長期以來的矛盾,這與下面的事情相比就不算什么了,所以要用表示程度的even。

(18)

make it在這里意為“(病)好轉(zhuǎn),得救”。

(19)

message在這里意為“中心思想,要旨”。

(20)

這是本文的中心“抓緊時間去做你需要做的事情,現(xiàn)在就去做”。
