【解析】

試題分析：作者以倒敘的形式講述了發(fā)生在他身上的故事。而作者年老多病的父親卻交給了他這樣一個(gè)道理：他放棄了一切卻一無所獲，得到的只是家人的愛—不要斤斤計(jì)較，要以愛心來對(duì)待一切，面對(duì)生活，使自己的內(nèi)心平和。

1.B考查副詞afterwards意為“其后，后來，繼后，然后，以后”。therefore意為“因此，為此，所以”。meanwhile意為“同時(shí)”however意為“然而”，表示轉(zhuǎn)折或?qū)Ρ龋�多位于句中，前后須加逗�?hào)，可位于句首或句末，用于句首，后面可加逗號(hào)，所引導(dǎo)的分句用于句末，前面可加逗號(hào)。根據(jù)兩句中的learned how to accept life as it is和did not teach me acceptance可判斷出這兩句是轉(zhuǎn)折和對(duì)比關(guān)系。

2.2】C考查形容詞weak意為“柔弱的；虛弱的，有病的”，與ill屬同類概念。tired意為“疲勞的”。poor意為“貧窮的”。slow意為“慢的”。都屬于健康的范疇，根據(jù)全句的邏輯意思和下文的提示（he can no longer walk），選擇一個(gè)與ill并列意義的詞。

3.3】D考查副詞once意為“曾經(jīng)”，常與一般過去時(shí)連用，表示過去曾經(jīng)發(fā)生的事。根據(jù)下文中的a terrible illness可判斷出作者的父親過去曾經(jīng)是一個(gè)強(qiáng)壯的人。already意為“已經(jīng)”，常與現(xiàn)在進(jìn)行時(shí)連用，表示已經(jīng)完成的動(dòng)作。still意為“仍然是”，與下文所講的作者的父親得力重病矛盾。only意為“僅僅”

4.4】A考查動(dòng)詞。take away使（感情，感覺等）消失，帶走；throw away丟棄某物（因不用或不需要）；send away把…送往另一地方；put away收好

5.5】B考查形容詞。Impossible過于絕對(duì)，只失去說話能力；hopeful沒有指望的，絕望的；stressful產(chǎn)生壓力的 由上文爸爸體弱多病和下文他說的話，得知爸爸甚至講話都困難，故選B項(xiàng)。

6.6】C考查動(dòng)詞。開始交談，談?wù)撋�活，不是籠統(tǒng)地講擔(dān)心誰的生活（worry about）,關(guān)心誰的生活（care about）,詢問誰的生活（ask about），故選C項(xiàng)。

7.7】D考查名詞。我跟他們講了我的一個(gè)信條（我個(gè)人相信的事）(belief).由下文可知不是我的一個(gè)什么經(jīng)驗(yàn)(experience);抱負(fù)（ambition）或某個(gè)決定（decision），故選D項(xiàng)。

8.8】A考查連詞。as引導(dǎo)時(shí)間狀語從句，意為“隨著”，從句中的謂語動(dòng)詞常是表示發(fā)展的動(dòng)詞如develop，grow up，go等。這里表示隨著我們的成長(zhǎng)。since引導(dǎo)時(shí)間狀語從句常與現(xiàn)在進(jìn)行時(shí)連用。before引導(dǎo)時(shí)間狀語從句表示“在……之前”。till引導(dǎo)時(shí)間狀語從句表示“一直……”，.隨著（as)我們長(zhǎng)大，我們常常放棄一些東西

9.9】A考查動(dòng)詞。suggest意為“暗示，表明”。promise意為“承諾，許諾”。require意為“需要”，總的看起來是這樣的，因?yàn)槭且粋�(gè)人的看法及一般情況，語氣不是特肯定，又不是某個(gè)人的建議或要求，故其他三個(gè)選項(xiàng)不可取

10.0】C考查動(dòng)詞。speak up（爸爸）突然大聲說，說到；turn up擰大，開大；出現(xiàn)；sun up歸納，總結(jié)；判斷，估量（此前，爸爸并沒說話，故不能選）；open up開拓，開辟；開始暢談，傾吐心事（不是一兩句話，更不能突然開始），故選C項(xiàng)。

11.1】B考查代詞。根據(jù)上下文及作者爸爸當(dāng)時(shí)的狀況，所謂“美好的事”一無所有了；從外表看只是一個(gè)體弱多病，非常難過的老年。故give up everything，故選B項(xiàng)。

12.2】A考查副詞。爸爸提出一個(gè)問題，我以為讓我來回答，我正在冥思苦想的時(shí)候，他卻自己給出了答案，這出乎我的意料，故選A項(xiàng)。

13.3】B考查動(dòng)詞辨析 have意為“有”。accept意為“接受”。enjoy意為“享受……的樂趣”gain意為“獲得”，指經(jīng)過付出巨大努力之后為自己獲得或贏得有一定價(jià)值的東西，強(qiáng)調(diào)所得之物能夠造成的優(yōu)勢(shì)。由于父親得病，受到了家庭的照顧，所以他說得到了家庭的愛，故選B項(xiàng)。

14.4】A考查動(dòng)詞。A. moved移動(dòng)；B. amazed吃驚；C. attracted吸引；D. warned警告。回答針對(duì)上面爸爸提出的那個(gè)問題：What did I gain?，故選A項(xiàng)。

15.5】C考查情態(tài)動(dòng)詞should表示“應(yīng)該”。could表示可能性。might表示可能性，但可能性很小would表示過去某段時(shí)間的習(xí)慣，即每當(dāng)惱怒時(shí)，作者總是想起父親的話。

16.6】C考查形容詞。一想到爸爸的話，我的內(nèi)心就平靜下來，控制情緒；而不是保持安靜(quiet)，放松（relaxed）或高興(happy)，故選C項(xiàng)。

17.7】B考查形容詞。一想到爸爸既然能夠用對(duì)別人的愛來代替他巨大的疼痛或痛苦這件事，我就必然能夠（be able to do）放棄自己的不值一提的易怒情緒，故選B項(xiàng)。

18.8】D考查動(dòng)詞。這樣(in this way),我就從爸爸身上學(xué)會(huì)了寬容的力量（power of acceptable）。Method指解決某個(gè)具體問題的科學(xué)的，符合邏輯的方法，通常搭配是with this/that …method.，故選D項(xiàng)。

19.9】B考查動(dòng)詞。現(xiàn)在我想知道，如果我從小的時(shí)候起，就認(rèn)真地聽我爸爸的，我還會(huì)學(xué)到其他什么東西呢？要注意該句用的是虛擬語氣，故選B項(xiàng)。

20.20】D考查動(dòng)詞。即便如此，我也不是特別的遺憾，我很感謝我爸爸送給我的這個(gè)禮物，這篇短文講述了作者的父親因?yàn)樯�病而失去了活�?dòng)甚至于說話的能力，但是他仍然認(rèn)為自己獲得了家庭的愛，表現(xiàn)了對(duì)生活的正確態(tài)度，所以作者把父親所說的I gained the love of my family.作為父親送給自己的禮物
