答案
解析
1. C。由文中的But Dad, it’s 18 miles可知距离远,且其他三项均未在原文中有所提示,故选C。
2. D。service意为“修理、维修(机器)”,文意指把车送去检修。
3. D。promise意为“承诺、答应”,“我”向父亲承诺下午4点来接他。
4. C。根据上下文中父亲让“我”开车送他去Mijas,然后把车开去修车厂可知这里选C。
5. A。however意为“然而”,由上下文的内容可知此处表示转折,故选A。
6. B。find out意为“发现、查明”,句意:我想若是父亲知道我是一直在看电影,他会生气的。
7. D。由下文说晚了两小时,可知“我”是要急忙赶去,故选D。
8. D。start意为“开始”,leave意为“离开”,不符文章意思,故排除,arrive仅指到达的瞬间动作,也排除。
9. C。look意为“眼神”,由下文父亲再次看着“我”可知上父亲的眼神让“我”难以忘记。
10. D。feel意为“觉得、认为”,文意:我对你认为不得不对我说谎感到很失望。
11. A。turn up 意为“出现、露面”,父亲等了很久,“我”却仍未出现。
12. B。problem意为“问题、难题”,父亲是在担心出了什么问题。
13. A。ashamed意为“惭愧的”,frightened意为“害怕的”,nervous意为“紧张的”,surprised意为“吃惊的”,“我”对父亲说了谎,后来告诉他真相时自然会感到惭愧。
14. B。sadness意为“悲伤、难过”,父亲对“我”采取撒谎的方式而感到很难过。
15. B。根据后句I realize I’ve failed as a father可知父亲是对自己感到生气,故选B。
16. A。where指在哪里,原文中指父亲要反省自己在哪些地方错了。
17. B。meaningless意为“无意义的”,useless意为“无用的”,helpless意为“无助的”,worthless意为“无价值的”,父亲已下决心,我所做的也就变得毫无意义。
18. C。ask意为“要求”,persuade意为“劝说”,beg意为“乞求”,follow意为“跟随”,C项最符合文意,“我”犯了错,想求父亲上车。
19. A。相对于emotional(情感上的)的是physical(身体上),由父亲采取步行回家的方式可知他还遭受了身体上的痛苦。
20. C。also意为“也……”,这件事是“我”最痛苦的经历,也是“我最成功的教训”。

举一反三
Moreover, you can never determine the truthfulness or honesty of people by what they say alone. In fact, words expressed through the mouth often do not reflect what people really think or feel. The more reliable way you can determine their true inner feelings and thoughts is by reading their body language. Everybody communicates using these gestures and if you understand the gestures and their meanings you will be able to read people and know what they are really communicating to you. One researcher even went as far as to say that we speak to hide what’s on our minds. But gestures cannot lie.
Have you ever wondered what it would be like if you can “see through” the emotions of other people? Let’s say you ask a person whether he can do an important task. He says “OK”. But deep inside, you are questioning yourself, “Is he really willing to do this job?” or “Does he have the confidence in finishing this task?” You can’t question him directly because that would be like belittling him. And even if you ask him those questions, his replies will not tell you what he really feels or thinks. So the most useful way is to observe his body language. Expressions like smiling, frowning, pouting, facial reddening, sweating, toe curling and sideways glances are visible hints that can help you make a right judgment.

My fingers shook,grasped and held the windowsill tightly.Somewhere through the roar sounded the terrified scream of some wounded animal.I looked behind me and tried to steady my gaze on the other kids but the scene was a dizzy nightmare.Some of the class were sitting in the middle of the room,surrounded by chairs and desks.One girl was screaming.A boy was trying to claw his way across the floor to the door in a crazy overarm crawl.
My grip froze me to the windowsill.
I cried aloud,“I’m going to die.I’m going to die.Save me,I’m not ready to die,I’m not ready!”
I hunched forward on my knees and pressed my face against my clenched fingers.I looked at the backs of my fingers and stupidly noticed the fragile pale hairs growing out of the pores.The fingers would soon cease to exist.Somehow the impending horror of my death was too terrible to even cry about.
Suddenly,I became aware that the rocking had ceased.Perhaps I wasn’t going to die.

Many of us let our lives become so busy with work and other commitments that we don’t get around to scheduling time for pleasure and renewal(叙旧)with the friends,relatives and acquaintances we already have.
Making the effort to call your friends more regularly and to accept more of the invitations you receive from others can improve your social life in a hurry!
Are there any people you could call right now and be assured of a pleasant welcome? Are there people that you could count on to help you in time of difficulty? Can you have close talks with them? Do you have fun when you are together? Are you happy to have them in your life?
If you haven’t seen much of them lately。is it because you have become too busy? Have you grown apart? Was there an argument?
If the main reason you haven’t been getting together with the people you already know is that you have gotten too busy,take a good look at how you spend your time.Compare it with your real values and priorities(优先考虑的事)in life.Is your busy lifestyle really bringing you the quality of life that you want?
If you have become too busy for friends,why has this happened? Are you seeking material toys in your life at the expense of relationships with other human beings? Have you allowed your time to be over.committed because you never say“No”to anyone? Do you insist on doing things yourself that could be delegated to others? If so,why? Do you believe that everything depends on you?
Examine whether the way you are now spending your time accurately reflects your deepest values and priorities.Make sure that you schedule enough time for the things that are truly most important to you.
If you really want to keep friends in your lire,make a space in your schedule,and a space in your heart for them.
