Question

6．When I walked into the house after school，the first thing I noticed was a box with items I recognized from my dad's office．When he told me that he was laid off，I thought he was joking．Then I noticed his seriousness and realized he was telling the truth．My father has always been a hard worker．He has prided himself on his career．（71）AI guess I had taken his work for granted．
（72）DFor starters，he was home all the time．In meant my bed had to be made，my room cleaned up，and my homework done right after school．I would come home every day to find him at the computer searching for jobs．（73）CHe seemed down，though he tried to be optimistic．He asked my brother and me to spend less．I gave up my spending money，which wasn't much．I also found a part-time job．
（74）EHe explained that he never wanted to be laid off again，so he was going to start his own business．Day by day，I watched him build it，On evening I asked if he needed help．"Only if it doesn't affect school，"he said．I showed up at his office the next afternoon，and most afternoons after that for two months．
（75）GThe terrible experience for our family taught me how to deal with difficulties．Now I know that through creative problem-solving，I can always find Plan B．I can ask for help and take risks．What I have learned from my dad's understanding of business and his work ethic（信條） are two of the most important lessons I will ever learn．And they will be my principles for success．
   
A．Providing for our family has been his joy．
B．I made every effort to solve his problems．
C．I began to notice how losing his job had affected him．
D．My father's unemployment created many changes in our lives．
E．After months of searching，my dad decided to go in a totally different direction．
F．His courage and determination helped him to become successful in his new career．
G．I always knew he was a hard worker，but watching him in action influenced me a lot．

Answer 1

分析 本文主要介紹了爸爸失業(yè)帶來(lái)的影響，以及我對(duì)他看法的改變．作為家庭支柱的爸爸失業(yè)帶給家庭的影響遠(yuǎn)遠(yuǎn)不及對(duì)他本人的影響大，通過(guò)一段時(shí)間的變化和他自己的調(diào)整讓我重新認(rèn)識(shí)了爸爸，對(duì)他的觀察也深深影響了我．

解答 71．A．由前兩句My father has always been a hard worker．He has prided himself on his career可知，工作對(duì)爸爸來(lái)說(shuō)一直是他的一種驕傲；故選A．
72．D．后面提到For starters，he was home all the time說(shuō)明爸爸失業(yè)帶來(lái)的不良影響；所以選項(xiàng)D符合問(wèn)句的意思．
73．C．He seemed down，though he tried to be optimistic一句提到雖然他看起來(lái)很樂(lè)觀，但是實(shí)際上很消沉，可知這是描述失業(yè)對(duì)爸爸的具體的影響．故選C．
74．E．根據(jù)Day by day，I watched him build it可知，是作者日積月累的觀察，發(fā)現(xiàn)爸爸的漸進(jìn)變化；爸爸開(kāi)始發(fā)生了轉(zhuǎn)變；故選E．
75．G．The terrible experience for our family taught me how to deal with difficulties．Now I know that through creative problem-solving，I can always find Plan．最后總結(jié)我以前對(duì)爸爸的印象是模糊的，親自觀察到他的變化對(duì)我影響很大；故選G．

點(diǎn)評(píng) 解答此類(lèi)閱讀類(lèi)文章，首先整體把握文章大意；其次分段理解段落主旨大意；然后根據(jù)整體大意結(jié)合選項(xiàng)判斷銜接關(guān)系．每段第一句有時(shí)能起關(guān)鍵作用．
