I’ve always had strong opinions of how love should be expressed, but others had their own ways of showing care.
What I   36  most about visiting my boyfriend’s parents is the loud tick of the clock in the dining room as we   37  ate our meal. With so little conversation I was quick to   38 his family as cold. When we got into the   39   to go home, his father suddenly appeared. 40  , he began to wash his son’s windscreen. I could feel he was a caring man through the glass.
I learned another lesson about love a few years later. My father often  41  me early in the morning. “Buy Xerox. It’s a good sharp price,” he might say when I answered the phone. No pleasant  42 or inquiry about my life, just financial instructions. This manner of his  43 me and we often quarreled. But one day, I thought about my father’s success in business and realized that his concern for my financial security lay behind his  44   morning calls. The next time he called and told me to buy a stock, I  45  him.
When my social style has conflicted with that of my friends, I’ve often felt   46 . For example, I always return phone calls  47  and regularly contact with my friends. I expect the same from them. I had one friend who rarely called, answering my messages with short e-mails. I rushed to the  48  : She wasn’t a good friend! My anger  49   as the holidays approached. But then she came to a gathering I  50 and handed me a beautiful dress I had fallen in love with when we did some window-shopping the previous month. I was  51   at her thoughtfulness, and regretful for how I’d considered her to be  52  . Clearly I needed to change my expectations of friends.
Far too often, I ignored their  53   expressions, eagerly expecting them to do things in my  54 . Over the years, however, I’ve learned to  55  other persons, love signs.

解析關(guān)于如何表達愛,我一直都有著自己的觀點;但別人也有他們自己表達關(guān)心的方法。
【小題1】what引導的是主語從句,“去拜訪男友的父母時,我記的最清楚的是他家的鐘表的滴答聲”,故選A。
【小題1】根據(jù)“With so little conversation ...”可知,他們吃飯時很“安靜”。故選C。
【小題1】固定搭配。Regard...as...“把......當做......”!拔液芸炀驼J為他們家人很冷漠”。故選A。
【小題1】根據(jù)后文作者男友的爸爸來擦擋風玻璃可知,作者他們是開車回家的。故選C。
【小題1】考查副詞辨析。A“準時地”;B“仔細地”;C“自豪地”;D“冷酷地”。父親很仔細地擦車。故選B。
【小題1】根據(jù)“when I answered the phone”可知,作者的父母是打來的電話。故選D。
【小題1】父母打來電話不說愉快的問候,不過問作者的生活,知識說一些金融方面的指導。故選A。
【小題1】根據(jù)quarrel可知,這里應該用一個指心情不好的詞,只有anger“使生氣”符合。故選B。
【小題1】早上打來電話,知識提醒一下關(guān)于資金方面的事,所以是短暫的。故選B。
【小題1】 praised“表揚”;remembered“記住,紀念”;blamed“責備”;thanked“感謝”。A項顯得不尊重長輩。故選D。
【小題1】 content“滿足的”;guilty“內(nèi)疚的”;curious“好奇的”;disappointed“失望的”。從后文的例子來看,當作者的社交風格與朋友的相沖突時,作者會感到失望。故選D。
【小題1】考查固定短語。in order后加to do或that;in turn“依次,輪流”;without delay“立刻”;without difficulty“容易地”。作者接到朋友的電話,之后會立即回一個以示禮貌。故選C。
【小題1】feeling“感覺”;suggestion“建議”;judgment“判斷”;belief“信念”。作者得出“她不是一個好朋友”的結(jié)論。故選C。
【小題1】隨著假期的臨近,作者的憤怒也在增長,故用grew。故選B。
【小題1】那個朋友來參加增長主持的一個聚會。故選C。
【小題1】那個朋友送給作者一件作者喜歡的裙子,作者感到很意外,并對她的細心感到驚訝。故選D。
【小題1】作者原先認為那個女孩不在意、不重視作者。故選A。
【小題1】unique“獨特的”,作者忽視了他人特有的表達愛和關(guān)心的方法。故選A。
【小題1】考查固定搭配。in one’s way“按照某人的方法”,故選B。
【小題1】根據(jù)“l(fā)ove signs”可知,作者開始變得從他人的行為、肢體語言中尋找信息。read在此可以意為“讀取,識別”。故選B。

Walking down a path through some woods in Georgia, I saw a small pool of water ahead on the path.I angled my direction to go around it on the part of the path that wasn't covered by water or mud.As I reached the pool, I was suddenly attacked! Yet I did nothing for the attack.It was so unpredictable and from somewhere totally unexpected.I was surprised as well as unhurt though I had been struck four or five times.I backed up a foot and my attacker stopped attacking me.Had I been hurt I wouldn't have found it amusing.And I was laughing.After all, I was being attacked by a butterfly!
Having stopped, laughing, I took a step forward.My attacker rushed me again.He charged towards me at full speed, attempting to hurt me but in vain.For a second time, I took a step backwards while my attacker paused.I wasn't sure what to do.After all, it's just not everyday that one is attacked by a butterfly.I stepped back to look the situation over.My attacker moved back to land on the ground.That's when I discovered why my attacker was charging me only moments earlier.He had a mate and she was dying.
Sitting close beside her, he opened and closed his wings as if to fan her.I could only admire the love and courage of that butterfly in his concern for his mate.He had taken it up on himself to attack me for his mate's sake (緣故), even though she was clearly dying and I was so large.He did so just to give her those extra few precious moments of life, should I have been careless enough to step on her.His courage in attacking something thousands of times larger and heavier than himself just for his mate's safety seemed admirable.I couldn't do anything other than reward him by walking on the more difficult side of the pool.He had truly earned those moments to be with her, undisturbed.    
Since then, I've always tried to remember the courage of that butterfly whenever I see huge barriers facing me.

In the kitchen of my mother's houses there has always been a wooden stand with a small notepad and a hole for a pencil.
I'm looking for paper on which to note down the name of a book I am recommending to my mother. Over forty years since my earliest memories of the kitchen pad and pencil, five houses later, the current paper and pencil look the same as they always did. Surely it can't be the same pencil. The pad is more modern, but the wooden stand is definitely the original one.
"I'm just amazed you still have the same stand for holding the pad and pencil after all these years." I say to her, walking back into the living-room with a sheet of paper and the pencil. "You still use a pencil. Can't you afford a pen?"
My mother replies a little sharply. "It works perfectly well; I've always kept the stand in the kitchen. I never knew when I might want to note down an idea, and I was always in the kitchen in these days. "
Immediately I can picture her, hair wild, blue housecoat covered in flour, a wooden spoon in one hand, the pencil in the other, her mouth moving silently. My mother smiles and says, "One day I was cooking and watching baby Pauline, and I had a brilliant thought, but the stand was empty. One of the children must have taken the paper. So I just picked up the breadboard and wrote it all down on the back. It turned out to be a real breakthrough for solving the mathematical problem I was working on."
This story, which happened before I was born, reminds me how extraordinary my mother was, and is also a gifted mathematician. I feel embarrassed that I complain about not having enough child-free time to work. Later, when my mother is in the bathroom, I go into her kitchen and turn over the breadboards. Sure enough, on the back of the smallest one, are some penciled marks I recognize as mathematics. Those symbols have traveled unaffected through fifty years, rooted in the soil of a cheap wooden breadboard, invisible exhibits at every meal.
【小題1】Why has the author's mother always kept the notepad and pencil in the kitchen?

A.To leave messages.
B.To list her everyday tasks.
C.To note down math problems.
D.To write down a flash of inspiration.
【小題2】What is the author's original opinion about the wooden stand?
A.It has great value for the family.
B.It needs to be replaced.
C.It brings her back to her lonely childhood.
D.It should be passed on to the next generation.
【小題3】The author feels embarrassed for____________.
A.blaming her mother wrongly
B.giving her mother a lot of trouble
C.not making good use of time as her mother did
D.not making any breakthrough in her field
【小題4】What can be inferred from the last paragraph?

In the kitchen of my mother’s houses there has always been a wooden stand (木架) with a small notepad (記事本) and a hole for a pencil.

I’m looking for paper on which to note down the name of a book I am recommending to my mother. Over forty years since my earliest memories of the kitchen pad and pencil, five houses later, the current paper and pencil look the same as they always did. Surely it can’t be the same pencil? The pad is more modern, but the wooden stand is definitely  the original one.

 “I’m just amazed you still have the same stand for holding the pad and pencil after all these years.” I say to her, walking back into the living-room with a sheet of paper and the pencil. “You still use a pencil. Can’t you afford a pen?”

My mother replies a little sharply. “It works perfectly  well. I’ve  always kept the stand in the kitchen. I never knew when I might want to note down an idea, and I was always in the kitchen in those days.”

Immediately I can picture her, hair wild, blue housecoat covered in flour, a wooden spoon in one hand, the pencil in the other, her mouth moving silently. My mother smiles and says, “One day I was cooking and watching baby Pauline, and I had a brilliant thought, but the stand was empty. One of the children must have taken the paper. So I just picked up the breadboard and wrote it all down on the back. It turned out to be a real breakthrough for solving the mathematical problem I was working on.”

This story—which happened before I was born—reminds me how extraordinary my mother was, and is, as a gifted mathematician. I feel embarrassed that I complain about not having enough child-free time to work. Later, when my mother is in the bathroom, I go into her kitchen and turn over the breadboards. Sure enough, on the back of the smallest one, are some penciled marks I recognize as mathematics. Those symbols have travelled unaffected through fifty years, rooted in the soil of a cheap wooden breadboard, invisible (看不到的) exhibits at every meal.
