“How did you do it, Dad ? How have you   21   not to take a drink for almost 20 years? ”It took me almost 20 years to have the  22  to even ask my father this very  23 question.
When Dad first 24  drinking, the whole family was on pins and needles  25  he got into a situation that, in the past, would have started him drinking again.For a few years we were  26  to bring it up for fear that the drinking would begin again.
“I had this little  27  that I would recite to myself  28  four to five times a day ” was Dad’s  29 to my 18-year-old unasked question.“The  30  were an instant relief and constant reminder to me that things were never so  31  that I could not handle them,”Dad said.And then he  32  the poem with me.The poem’s simple, yet profound (深?yuàn)W的) words  33  became part of my daily routine as well.
About a month after this talk with my father,I  34  a gift in the mail from a friend of mine. It was a book of affirmations (斷言) with one affirmation listed for each  35  of the year.
I 36  opened the book to the page of my birthday to see what words of wisdom this book had in store for me. 37  of disbelief and appreciation rolled down my face.There,on my birthday ,was the  38  poem that had helped my  39 for all these years! It is called The Sereniry Prayer.
God,give me the Serenity(平靜)to accept the things I cannot change,the Courage to  40  the things I can,and the Wisdom to know the difference.

小題1:句意“我”花了近20年的時(shí)間才有勇氣去問(wèn)父親這個(gè)問(wèn)題。第二段最后解釋說(shuō),“我”一直害怕勾起他再次飲酒的欲望,故不敢提及該問(wèn)題。
小題1:根據(jù)常識(shí)可知,該問(wèn)題純粹是私人問(wèn)題。
小題1:從本段最后一句“害怕他再次喝酒”可知,這里是在描述父親最初戒酒時(shí)我們的反應(yīng)。
小題1:每次當(dāng)他遇到一種可能會(huì)讓他再次飲酒的場(chǎng)合時(shí),全家人就如坐針氈。此處every time引導(dǎo)一個(gè)時(shí)間狀語(yǔ)從句,意為“每次”。
小題1:擔(dān)心(父親)再次開(kāi)始飲酒,故數(shù)年來(lái)我們一直不敢提及這件事。bring it up提及這件事o

小題1:根據(jù)文章第一段及空后內(nèi)容可知,這是父親對(duì)文章開(kāi)頭“我”提出的問(wèn)題的回答。
小題1:本題可以從本段最后一句話中得到暗示。
小題1:考查形容詞詞義辨析。語(yǔ)境:這些話不斷提醒我事情從來(lái)不會(huì)困難到無(wú)法處理。tough堅(jiān)硬的,結(jié)實(shí)的,棘手的,難解的。A.陌生的,生疏的,奇異的,奇怪的;B.不同的;C.簡(jiǎn)單的。
小題1:考查動(dòng)詞與介詞的搭配。share sth with sb.與某人分享……。本題易誤選read,但其后介詞應(yīng)用to,即read sth.to sb.。
小題1:從下文可知,“我”對(duì)該詩(shī)一見(jiàn)傾心,頗受其影響,故這些話語(yǔ)立即成為“我”日常生活的一部分。
小題1:由空格后的a gift in the mail及birthday可知,此處說(shuō)“我”收到一份禮物。
小題1:由第五段第一句中“我”翻到“我”生日所在的那一頁(yè)可知,該書(shū)是每天都有一個(gè)斷言的。
小題1:由上一段最后一句和本空后的內(nèi)容“…to see what words of wisdom this book had in store for me”可知。此處表示“我”急忙打開(kāi)這本書(shū)。
小題1:此處指眼淚從臉上滾落下來(lái)。sweat汗水,不符合語(yǔ)境。
小題1:考查形容詞辨析!拔摇鄙漳且豁(yè)上的斷言正是曾經(jīng)幫助父親戒酒的那首詩(shī)。exact恰好的。correct正確的;impossible不可能的;original起初的。

There is probably no field of human activity in which our values and lifestyles are shown more clearly and strongly than they are in theclothes that we choose to wear.The dress of an individual is a kind of “sign language” that communicates a set of information and is usually the basis on which immediate impressions are formed.Traditionally, a concern for clothes was considered to be an affair of females,while men took pride in the fact that they were completely lacking clothes consciousness.
This type of American culture is gradually changing as man’s dress takes on greater variety  and color.Even as early as 1955,a research in Michigan said that men considered that the value of clothing in daily life was very important.White—collar workers in particular viewed dress as a symbol of ability,which could be used to impress or influence others,especially in the work situation.The white-collar worker was described as extremely concerned about the impression his clothing made on his boss.Although blue-collar workers were less aware that they might be judged on the basis of their clothing,they recognized that any difference from the accepted pattern of  dress would be made fun of by fellow workers.
Since that time,of course,the patterns have changed,the typical white-collar worker may now be wearing the blue shirt,while the blue-collar may be wearing a white shirt,but the importance of dress has not become less. Other researchers in recent years have helped to prove its importance in the lives of individuals at various age levels and in different social and economic status groups.
小題1:The passage tells us that       .
A.our values and lifestyles are in no field of human activity
B.the clothes that we choose to wear have something to do with our values and lifestyles
C.our values and lifestyles are from the sign language
D.the clothes we choose to wear depend on a set of information and immediate impression
小題2:Traditionally,people usually thought that       .
A.men cared very much for clothes
B.neither men nor women showed interest in clothes
C.both men and women paid great attention to their clothes
D.women concerned greatly about what they wore while men didn’t
小題3:White-collar workers pay great attention to their clothes because       
A.they extremely concern about the impression their clothes make on their bosses
B.they know that people might judge them on the basisof their clothes
C.they want to impress and influence others
D.they don’t want to be laughed at

Attitude is an internal state that influences the choices of personal action made by the individual. Some researchers consider that attitudes come from differences between beliefs and ideas; others believe that attitudes come from emotional states. Here, we focus on the effects of attitudes upon behavior, that is, upon the choices of action made by the individual.
The kinds of actions taken by human beings are obviously influenced greatly by attitudes. Whether one listens to classical music or rock, whether one obeys the speed limit while driving, whether one encourages one’s husband or wife to express his or her own ideas—all are influenced by attitudes. These internal states are acquired throughout life from situations one is faced with in the home, in the streets, and in the school.
Of course, the course of action chosen by an individual in any situation will be largely determined by the particulars of that situation. An individual who has a strong attitude of obeying laws may drive too fast when he is in a hurry and no police cars in sight. A child who has a strong attitude of honesty may steal a penny when she thinks no one will notice. But the internal state which remains unchanged over a period of time, and which makes the individual behave regularly in a variety of situations, is what is meant by an attitude.
Attitudes are learned in a variety of ways. They can result from single incidents, as when an attitude toward snakes is acquired by an experience in childhood at the sudden movement of a snake. They can result from the individual’s experiences of success and pleasure, as when someone acquires a positive attitude toward doing crossword puzzles by being able to complete some of them. And frequently, they are learned by copying other people’s behavior, as when a child learns how to behave toward foreigners by observing the actions of his parents. Regardless of these differences, there is something in common in the learning and modification(修正)of attitudes.
小題1: According to the passage, attitudes _________.
A.come from different situations in one’s life
B.a(chǎn)re largely affected by one’s behavior
C.remain unchanged in one’s daily life
D.could be chosen according to one’s will
小題2:The author uses the examples in Paragraph 3 to show _________.
A.people often make mistakes when they are not noticed
B.people with good attitudes may sometimes do bad deeds
C.particulars of a situation may influence an individual’s action
D.a(chǎn)n individual may change his or her attitude fairly easily
小題3:Which of the following is TRUE about the learning of attitudes?
A.Attitudes are only learned through one’s success.
B.Attitudes learned in danger will last longer.
C.Copying others behavior is not a good idea.
D.Attitudes can be learned from one’s parents.
小題4:What would be the best title for the passage?
A.Differences of Attitudes.
B.Nature of Attitude.
C.Choices of Attitudes.
D.Modification of Attitude.

For 52 years my father got up every morning at 5:30 am, except Sunday, and went to work. He returned home at 5:30 pm, for dinner at 6:00 pm. I never remember my father having a night out with his children. All he asked from me as a daughter was to hold his hammer while he repaired something, just so we could have some time to talk to each other.
For 22 years, after I left home for college, my father called me every Sunday. Nine years ago, my father, 67 years old, spent three days painting my house. He asked me to hold the paint brush for him and talk to him. But I was too busy and I could not take the time to hold the paint brush, or talk to my father.
Five years ago, my father spent five hours making a swing(秋千)for my daughter. Again, all he asked me to do was to give him a glass of tea, and talk to him. But again, I had some clothes to wash, and the house to clean.
On January 16, 1996, my father telephoned me as usual, this time from my sister’s home in Florida. I had to get to church, and I cut the conversation short.
The call came at 4:40 pm. That day, my father was in hospital in Florida. I got on an airplane immediately, and on the way, I made up my mind that when I arrived, I would make up for the lost time, and have a nice long talk with him.
I arrived in Florida at 1:00 am, but my father had passed away at 9:12 pm. This time it was he who did not have time to talk, or time to wait for me.
小題1:
When the author was young, her father ______.
A.was busy with his workB.disliked his children
C.often talked to his childrenD.never cared about his children
