练完形固词汇
本文是一篇记叙文。文章通过作者个人的经历和感受，讲述了自己作为UPS司机在每日工作中抽出时间拜访父亲的故事。
1.C 考查副词词义辨析。句意：相反，这是我对我父亲的私人拜访，这已经成了我珍视的日常习惯。therefore “因此”； however “然而”； instead “反而”； besides “此外”。根据上文“As a United Parcel Service (UPS) driver, the most important delivery I make each day isn’t part of my official route.”和下文“it was my personal visit to my father, which has become a(n) 2 I value”之间存在转折关系，下文是对上文的解释。故选C。
2.B 考查名词词义辨析。句意同上。occasion “时刻；场合”； routine “例行公事；常规”； destination “目的地”； design “设计”。根据下文“These daily 5 are more than just a break from work—they are moments filled with conversation and connection.”可知，作者对父亲的拜访已经成为日常惯例。故选B。
3.D 考查副词词义辨析。句意：我的递送路线恰好会经过我儿时的家。regularly “有规律地”； thoroughly “完全地”； accidentally “偶然地”； conveniently “方便地”。根据下文“Therefore, every day, during my lunch break, I will make it a(n) 4 to stop at my father’s.”可推断，作者送货的路线正好让自己方便回到儿时的家。故选D。
4.A 考查名词词义辨析。句意：因此，每天午餐时间，我会特地去我父亲那里停一下。point “看法；意义；目标”； wish “希望”； issue “问题；议题”； style “风格”。根据上文可知，作者送货的路线方便作者回到父亲的家，因此作者每天都会特意去父亲家，make it a point to do sth表示“特意或决心去做某事”。故选A。
5.B 考查名词词义辨析。句意：这些日常拜访不仅仅是为了在工作之余稍作休息——它们是我们充满交谈和联系的时刻。task “任务”； visit “拜访”； movement “活动；运动”； topic “话题”。根据上文“it was my personal visit to my father, which has become a(n) 2 I value”可知，作者每天都去父亲家，所以空处指的是日常拜访。选B。
6.C 考查动词词义辨析。句意：我父亲和我喜欢分享故事，经常深入探讨我父亲作为老兵的经历。finish “完成”； try “尝试”； enjoy “喜欢；享受”； miss “错过”。根据下文“These conversations not only 7 my father’s past but also strengthen our bond in the present.”可推断，作者和父亲喜欢分享故事，从而加强了彼此之间的联系。故选C。
7.D 考查动词词义辨析。句意：这些对话不仅是对我父亲的过去的致敬，也加强了我们现在的联系。explain “解释”； throw “扔”； record “记录”； honor “尊敬；使荣幸”。根据下文“but also strengthen our bond in the present”可推断，作者和父亲之间的对话是对父亲的一种致敬。故选D。
8.A 考查动词短语辨析。句意：这是我们俩都期待着的特殊时光，也是我们共同创造新回忆的时刻。live for “为……而生活；期望”； focus on “专注于”； get across “通过；被理解”； calm down “冷静下来”。根据下文“a time that creates our new 9 together”以及“I know from the bottom of my heart that it’s important to be there for our 15 ones, especially when they need help most.”可推断，作者和父亲都非常喜欢这段时光，也就是都期待着来访。故选A。
9.B 考查名词词义辨析。句意同上。power “力量；权力”； memory “记忆”； credit “信用；荣誉；学分”； detail “细节”。根据上文可知，作者和父亲会分享彼此的故事，再结合常理可知，这样会创造新的回忆。故选B。
10.C 考查形容词词义辨析。句意：我开始这个习惯是在我母亲去世后，那时我父亲心碎不已，除了我之外，他与整个世界都断了联系。bad-tempered “脾气不好的”； strong-minded “意志坚强的”； heartbroken “心碎的”； outspoken “直言不讳的”。根据上文“I began this routine after my mother passed away”可推测，作者的母亲去世后，作者的父亲非常悲伤。故选C。
11.A 考查动词词义辨析。句意：对我来说，这成了一种确保我父亲不会感到孤独的方式，并在困难时期为他提供至关重要的支持和陪伴。ensure “确保”； extend “表示”； imagine “想象”； suggest “建议”。根据下文“to provide the support and companionship”可推测，作者这样做是为了确保父亲不会孤独。故选A。
12.D 考查形容词词义辨析。句意同上。puzzling “令人困惑的”； positive “积极的”； modern “现代的”； challenging “具有挑战的；困难的”。根据上文“I began this routine after my mother passed away when my father was so 10 that he stayed unconnected with the whole world except me.”可推断，这段时期是非常困难的。故选D。
13.B 考查形容词词义辨析。句意：除了情感上的支持，我还为父亲提供实际的帮助。gainful “有利益的”； practical “实用的”； legal “合法的”； secret “秘密的”。根据下文“I ensure that meals are ready and take care of various needs around the house.”可推断，作者还为父亲做一些实际的事情。故选B。
14.A 考查名词词义辨析。句意：展示家庭联系重要性的传统得以延续。connection “联系”； member “成员”； dream “梦想”； struggle “挣扎”。根据上文“These conversations not only 7 my father’s past but also strengthen our bond in the present.”可知，这些拜访使得家庭之间有了联系，作者继续这样做，从而使得拜访延续下去。故选A。
15.C 考查形容词词义辨析。句意：我从心底里知道，对我们所爱的人来说，在他们最需要帮助的时候陪在他们身边是很重要的。sacred “神圣的”； related “相关的”； loved “喜爱的”； lost “丢失的，错过的”。根据下文“especially when they need help most”以及全文可知，作者指的是当所爱的人需要帮助时，我们应该陪在他们身边。故选C。(共39张PPT)
