A
It’s hard to talk to Dad sometimes. His silence about his feelings and thoughts made him mysterious and hard to see through. You could never break his hard shell and get to know him. And he seemed to want to stay that way
too.
But a year ago when my relationship with my wife and career took a hit, I needed my dad to pull back the curtain so I could see him as real and accessible. I was facing serious problems and I wanted to know whether he had faced them before and how he had found his way, because I felt like I had lost mine. In desperation, it occurred to me that sending an email might be the key, so I wrote him one, telling him about my regrets and fears, and I
asked him to answer, if he felt like it.
Two weeks later, it showed up in my inbox: a much-thought, three-page letter. Dad, a 68-year-old retired technologist and grandfather of four, had carefully considered my message, and crafted a response. He mentioned his lost love, the foolish mistake he made in career and the stupid pride he had between him and his parents. He
comforted me that “life will still find its right track despite many of its twists and turns” .
I closed the email and started to cry, because I wished I had opened up earlier but was grateful it wasn’t too late. I cried because at 33, in the midst of my own struggles, his letter instantly put me at ease. And I cried because in the
end, it was so simple: I just had to hit “Send” .
We’ve since had many email exchanges. This increasing communication opened a door into his world. My problems haven’t been magically solved, but getting to know my dad better has made the tough thing more
manageable and life sweeter. It’s hard to talk to Dad sometimes, but I’m glad I found a way to talk to mine.

“Everything happens for the best,” my mother said whenever I faced disappointment. “If you carry on,one day something good will happen. And you’ll realize that it wouldn’t have happened without that previous
disappointment.”
Mother was right,as I discovered after graduating from college in 1932. I had decided to try for a job in radio,then work my way up to sports announcer.I hitchhiked(搭便车) to Chicago and knocked on the door of every
station and got turned down every time.
In one studio,a kind lady told me that big stations couldn’t risk hiring an inexperienced person.“Go out in the
sticks and find a small station that’ll give you a chance,” she said.
So I returned to my hometown—Dixon,Illinois. While there was no radio-announcing jobs in Dixon,my father said Montgomery Ward had opened a store and wanted a local athlete to manage its sports department.The job
sounded just right for me. But I wasn’t hired.
My disappointment must have shown. “Everything happens for the best,” Mom reminded me.I tried WOC Radio in Davenport,Iowa.The program director named Peter MacArthur told me they had already hired an
announcer.
As I left his office, my frustration boiled over. I asked aloud, “How can a fellow get to be a sports announcer if
he can’t get a job in a radio station ”
I was waiting for the elevator when I heard MacArthur calling,“What was that you said about sports Do you
know anything about football ” Then he asked me to broadcast an imaginary game before a microphone. As a
result, I did a wonderful job, and was told to broadcast Saturday’s game.
On my way home,as I have many times since,I thought of my mother’s words.I often wonder what direction
my life might have taken if I’d gotten the job at Montgomery Ward.

Why are certain people so memorable, while some fade from our memories in time
Several examples come to mind with my youngest son, Ken. He was always more comfortable around his dad’s friends than his own. He loved to spend time with them, fish with them, listen to their stories and just be with
them.
He has experienced the loss of several really meaningful friendships over the past few years, and it has been very painful for him. One, Dr. George, was a neighbour and fishing buddy who would call to see if Ken could go fishing with him. Dr. George always said Ken was the son he never had and that it meant everything to him. He died very suddenly while fishing with all of his best buddies a few years ago. The huge hole that left in so many
lives simply cannot be filled—for Ken it was immensely painful.
There was another fishing buddy of his dad’s, Frank, who was always fun to be around. Ken was very young then, but really enjoyed getting along with “the guys” when they were fishing. Frank and his family went to the Kens in the same week we did one year and the memory remains to this day. Cheerful and happy, he was able to
laugh at himself and accept everyone’s abilities or lack of them, all qualities that impressed Ken so much.
When he became deadly ill, Ken drove from his home in North Carolina to Florida for an overnight visit with him. He died a short time later. The day after his funeral (葬礼), Frank came to Ken in a dream and asked if he would take care of his wife, Carol. To Ken this was very meaningful, and today they share a special bond that
Frank somehow knew would be important for them both.
When you are raising children, you realise that some people become very important to them, draw them in,
accept and respect them. It changes them.
8 .According to the author, some people are unforgettable to us because of .
A .their great achievements

A .spent a joyful week with Frank one year
B .felt the greatest pain to George’s death
C .seemed to get along better with adults
D .was glad to get tolerated by Frank
11 .Carol is mentioned in the fifth paragraph to show us that .
A .Frank wanted her to marry Ken
B .Ken met Frank in a dream

Pamela Malhotra has always attached great importance to education. However, life always seemed to “get in the way” every time she tried to finish her bachelor’s degree. The single mom was so devoted to working to support her two children that she repeatedly put her own education goals on hold, giving up her college program on two
separate occasions over the years.
When he was just five years old, her son Bonifacio Malhotra noticed her struggling to get her degree, and he made a promise to help her. “I remember I just told my mom … one day, it’s gonna be you and me,” Bonifacio said. “We’re going to gain our degrees at the same time.” Those words proved to be prophetic for the mom-and-son
duo, who currently walked across the stage at the university to collect their bachelor’s degrees together!
“That promise, he never allowed it to die,” said Pamela. “He continuously confirmed that we’re gonna do this.” Their path to graduation wasn’t easy, but Bonifacio stayed true to his promise and helped his mother along the way. The two hold two associate’s degrees each, so in the fall of 2021 they registered together in bachelor-level online courses. They both found the classes challenging, but Bonifacio stepped up as the cheerleader his mother needed. “Mom, you’ve got to keep it going. I know you want to stop. We must keep going,” Bonifacio recalled.
“The main thing was just trying to get everything lined up and stay on top of all the work.”
It took the Malhotras two years to finish their bachelor’s degrees, hers in humanities and Bonifacio’s in public safety administration. Pamela plans to stay at her job as a coordinator, and Bonifacio has accepted a job at
university to help other students succeed in college, too.
Pamela said she was incredibly proud of her son’s achievement, and she personally couldn’t have reached her lifelong goal without the support of her family, especially him. “Between my son and my daughter, they were my
greatest supporter,” Pamela proudly said.
12 .What does the underlined word “prophetic” in Paragraph 2 probably mean
A .Professional. B .Particular. C .Precious. D .Predictable.
13 .What do we know about the Malhotras
A .They took online courses at the same time.
B .Pamela thought the courses were more challenging.
C .Bonifacio majored in humanities at university.
D .Pamela now works as a university teacher.
14 .Which of the following statement can best describe Bonifacio
A .He’s the good man of the house. B .He’s a man of all work.
C .He’s a man among men. D .He’s a man of his word.
15 .What can be the best title of the the passage
A .We Value the Time Being with Families
B .Families Help Each Other
C .The Home Is Our Heaven
D .Each Family Has Its Own Problems

He was 50 years old when I was born. I didn’t know why he was home instead of Mom, but I was young and
the only one of my friends who had their dad around. I considered myself very lucky.
Dad did so many things for me during my grade school years. He convinced the school bus driver to pick me up at my house instead of the usual bus stop that was six blocks away. He always had my lunch ready for me when
I came home.
As I got a little older, I wanted to move away from those “childish” signs of his love. But he wasn ’t going to give up. In high school and no longer able to go home for lunch, I began taking my own. Dad would get up a little earlier and make it for me. The outside of the sack might be covered with a heart inscribed with “Dad-n-Angie K.
K.”. Inside there would be a napkin (餐巾纸) with that same heart or an “I love you.”
I used to hide my lunch so no one would see the bag or read the napkin, but that didn’t last long. One of my
friends saw the napkin one day, grabbed it, and passed it around the lunch room. My face burned with
embarrassment. To my astonishment, the next day all my friends were waiting to see the napkin. From the way they
acted, I thought they all wished they had someone who showed them that kind of love. I felt so proud!
When I left home for college, I thought the messages would stop. But my friends and I were glad that his
gestures continued. I began getting letters almost every Friday. The front-desk staff always knew who the letters
were from. Many times the envelopes were addressed in crayon, and along with the enclosed letters were usually
drawings of our cat and dog, stick figures of him and Mom.
注意:
1. 续写词数应为 150 左右;

a radio station ’(我大声问道:“一个连在电台都找不到工作的人怎么能成为体育节目播音员呢 ”)”,可知,

项。
9.推理判断题。根据第三段中“Dr. George always said Ken was the son he never had and that it meant everything to him. ”(乔治博士总是说肯是他从未有过的儿子,这对他来说意味着一切)可推知,乔治博士希望肯是他
的亲生儿子。故选 B 项。
10 .细节理解题。根据第三段“He died very suddenly while fishing with all of his best buddies a few years ago. The huge hole that left in so many lives simply cannot be filled—for Ken it was immensely painful. ”(几年前,他 和他最好的朋友一起钓鱼时突然去世了。在这么多人的生命中留下的巨大空洞根本无法填补——对肯来说,
这是非常痛苦的)可知,乔治的死给肯带来了巨大的悲伤,但是文章中并没有交代肯是最感到悲伤的人;
也没有谈到在所有死去的人中, 肯对乔治的死最感到悲伤。第二段的第二句“He was always more comfortable around his dad ’s friends than his own. ”(他和父亲的朋友在一起总是比和自己的朋友在一起更自在) 可知, C 项“肯似乎与成年人相处得好”正确;根据第四段的“Frank and his family went to the Kens in the same week we did one year and the memory remains to this day. ”(有一年,弗兰克和他的家人在我们去肯斯的同一个星期 也去了肯斯, 记忆一直延续到今天) 和“Cheerful and happy ”(他开朗快乐) 可知 A 项“有一年, 肯与弗兰 克度过了快乐的一周 ”正确;由“and accept everyone ’s abilities or lack of them ”(接受每个人的能力或不足)

To Ken this was very meaningful, and today they share a special bond that Frank somehow knew would be important for them both. ”(当他病入膏肓时,肯从
他在北卡罗来纳的家开车到佛罗里达过夜。不久之后他就去世了。葬礼后的第二天,弗兰克来到肯的梦中,
问肯是否愿意照顾他的妻子卡罗尔。这对肯来说意义重大,如今他们之间有着一种特殊的纽带,弗兰克不 知怎么知道, 这种纽带对他们俩都很重要。)可知, 弗兰克病重之际, 肯一夜之间, 开车走了很远的路去探 望他;弗兰克死后还托梦交代肯要他负责照顾自己的妻子。这些都是应该发生在真正的父子之间的事情。
由此可推知,卡罗尔在第五段中被提到是为了向我们表明弗兰克把肯视为他的儿子。故选 C 项。

51 .Dear Jim,
Knowing you are conducting a survey of the housework that high school students do at home, I feel very pleased to
offer you some information about it.
Although my school schedule is rather tight, I still manage to help with varieties of household chores, ranging from cleaning the house and doing the laundry to feeding the pets, and doing the dishes. I consider it beneficial for high school students to do some housework. For one thing, by doing housework we learn to take responsibility at home, and in the longer term, in society. For another, I find the time spent doing housework with my parents really fun
and rewarding.
Good luck with your survey.
Yours,
Li Hua

52 .One possible version:
It was during this time that Dad became stricken with cancer. When the letters didn ’t come on Friday, I knew that he had been sick and wasn ’t able to write. He used to get up at 4:00 a.m. So he could sit in the quiet house and do his letters. If he missed his Friday delivery, the letters would usually come a day or two later. But they always
came. My friends used to call him “Coolest Dad in the Universe ”.
Then the time came when I decided to come home because he was growing sicker. And I knew that our time together was limited. Those were the hardest days to go through. To watch this man, who always acted so young, age passed his years. In the end he didn ’t recognize who I was. Even though I knew it was due to his illness, it still hurt that he couldn ’t remember my name. I was alone with him in his hospital room a couple of days before he died.
We held hands and watched TV. As I was getting ready to leave, he said,“Angie, I love you. ”
