12．In the years of my growing up，Dad was strict with me．He made sure I made my bed and did my homework．He would call in advance to make sure there was no alcohol at the party．I got so angry with him for laying down the law．I would scream，"I hate you!"Dad would yell back，"Good!I don't care!"Deep down I knew he did．
One time at a party，I drank too much alcohol and got so sick．I said，"Call my dad．"Next thing，Dad was carrying me to the car．I woke up the next morning，thinking I would definitely be criticised．As expected，I got a roasting，but I now understand why I need discipline．
Dad was 29 when he got his big roles in films．I had an early start at the age of nine with a role in a 1990s TV series，but it wasn't until I finished film studies that I pursued my career as an actress．Like those early days for Dad，I faced lots of rejections．Working in such a competitive industry，I've sometimes thought，"I can't do this any more．"
Once，after a trip to Hollywood，I returned to Australia so depressed and spent months in my bedroom painting，listening to Eckhart Tolle's music and trying to find myself again．Dad sat me down and said，"Alice，I know it's hard，but it's all about persistence（堅持不懈）．"
Now I get to work with Dad a lot，which I love．We both passionate about acting，which comes from us being so interested in people．If it weren't for Dad，I wouldn't be where I am today．He's my biggest fan，and when you have that in your life you can go a long way．

56．What rules did Alice's father set for her when she was growing up？（no more than 15 words）She should make her bed，do her homework and drink no alcohol．
Or：Making her bed，doing her homework and drinking no alcohol．
57．What does the underlined part in Paragraph 2 mean？（no more than 5 words）I got/was criticised/scolded．
58．What did Alice's father do when she felt depressed？（no more than 5 words）He encouraged/comforted/inspired her．
59．According to the last paragraph，what do Alice and her father have in common？（no more than 10 words）
They are both passionate about acting and interested in people．
60．What do you think of Alice's father？Please explain．（no more than 20 words）He is a good/devoted/caring/loving father because he was strict with his daughter and encouraged her when she was in trouble．
Or：He is always supportive/a source of strength．Whenever he is in trouble，he is there for her．．

分析 本文作者講述了小的時候爸爸對自己要求非常嚴格，以至于當時非常痛恨爸爸，但當自己長大后慢慢理解了爸爸的良苦用心，是爸爸的嚴格要求使自己走上了正確的人生之路．

解答 56．She should make her bed，do her homework and drink no alcohol．
Or：Making her bed，doing her homework and drinking no alcohol．
57．I got/was criticised/scolded．
58．He encouraged/comforted/inspired her．
59．They are both passionate about acting and interested in people．
60．He is a good/devoted/caring/loving father because he was strict with his daughter and encouraged her when she was in trouble．
Or：He is always supportive/a source of strength．Whenever he is in trouble，he is there for her．
解析
56．推理判斷題    根據(jù)第一段第二句 He made sure I made my bed and did my homework．He would call in advance to make sure there was no alcohol at the party 可知，他會確信"我"已經(jīng)整理好床鋪，做了作業(yè)并且提前確定一下"我"參加的派對上沒有酒．故正確答案為 She should make her bed，do her homework and drink no alcohol．或者 Making her bed，doing her homework and drinking no alcohol．．
57．句意理解題    根據(jù)下劃線前一句 thinking I would definitely be criticized．As expected 可知，"我"想到"我"將會被批評．正如"我"所預(yù)料的那樣，"我"的確被指責(zé)了．所以 roasting 在此語境中意為"批評，指責(zé)"．故正確答案為 I got/was criticised/scolded．．
58．細節(jié)理解題   根據(jù)第四段最后一句 Dad sat me down and said，"Alice，I know it's hard，but it's all about persistence（堅持不懈）．"可知，當"我"感到沮喪的時候，父親會坐下來告訴"我"，"Alice，我知道很困難，但是貴在堅持．"由此可知當"我"郁悶的時候，父親會鼓勵安慰"我"．故正確答案為 He encouraged/comforted/inspired her．．
59．細節(jié)理解題  根據(jù)最后一段第二句 We both passionate about acting，which comes from us being so interested in people 可知，"我"和父親都熱衷于演藝，這源自于"我們"都對人感興趣．故正確答案為 He is a good/devoted/caring/loving father because he was strict with his daughter and encouraged her when she was in trouble．．
60．總結(jié)歸納題   根據(jù)全文可知"我"的父親對我很嚴格，但當"我"沮喪時會鼓勵和安慰"我"，是一位好父親．故正確答案為 He is a good/devoted/caring/loving father because he was strict with his daughter and encouraged her when she was in trouble．或者 He is always supportive/a source of strength．Whenever he is in trouble，he is there for her．

點評 一、先看標題，再讀文章．
無論是讀書，還是看報紙，我們首先見到的就是一篇文章的標題．標題往往是文章中心的高度濃縮；標題是一篇文章的綱，統(tǒng)帥全文．它是我們藉以了解文章的內(nèi)容、作者的寫作目的和意圖的窗口．閱讀題干，首先要掌握問題的類型，分清是客觀信息題還是主觀判斷題．客觀信息題可以從文章中直接找到答案；而主觀判斷題考查的是對文章的感情基調(diào)，
二、帶著問題去閱讀．
先看試題，再讀文章才能掌握問題的類型，分清是客觀信息題還是主觀判斷題．客觀信息題可以從文章中直接找到答案，而主觀判斷題考查的是對文章的主旨大意，作者的觀點等，必須對整篇文章進行深層次的理解．其次，了解題干以及各個選項所包含的信息，還能有針對性閱讀，有根有據(jù)地排除干擾項，選出正確答案．這樣既提高了做題的準確率，也節(jié)省了寶貴的時間．
三、快速瀏覽全文，抓住文章大意和主題句，明確作者的態(tài)度和意圖．
四、細節(jié)研讀，抓住事實和細節(jié)
事實是作者的思想和觀點的有力證據(jù)，是作者所寫文章的重要依據(jù)．而細節(jié)是使文章連成整體的主要手段，是使文章充滿活力的重要方式．換句話說，事實和細節(jié)是文章的血和肉．不論事件多么驚人，也不論觀點如何新奇，若沒有事實和細節(jié)，這篇文章就顯得空洞無力．
五、猜詞悟義，掃除閱讀攔路虎．
猜詞是應(yīng)用英語的重要能力，也是高考中常用的題型．它不但需要準確無誤地理解上下文，而且要有較大的泛讀量，掌握或認識較多的課外詞匯．我們要學(xué)會"順藤摸瓜"，通過構(gòu)詞，語法，定義，同位，對比，因果，常識，上下文等線索確定詞義．
六、克服閱讀中常見的壞習(xí)慣，養(yǎng)成良好的閱讀習(xí)慣，提高閱讀速度．
閱讀時常見的幾種不良習(xí)慣上文已提到，這些不良習(xí)慣會影響到閱讀速度，因此要及時糾正．我們可以根據(jù)閱讀的目的，明確用眼的特殊要求．快速閱讀應(yīng)該在眼睛的每次停頓前，盡量可能地多看幾個詞，把注意力集中在了解文章的大意上，不要逐字逐句去拘意思．培養(yǎng)默讀的習(xí)慣，不要一遇到生詞就去查字典，要學(xué)會利用構(gòu)詞法和利用分析、推理等方法，根據(jù)上下文猜測詞義，從而克服生詞障礙，加快閱讀速度，逐步提高閱讀理解能力

4．Benjamin West，the father of American painting，showed his talent for art when he was only six years of age．But he did not know about brushes before a visitor told him he needed one．In those days，a brush was made from camel's hair．There were no camels nearby．Benjamin decided that cat hair would work instead．He cut some fur from the family cat to make a brush．
The brush did not last long．Soon Benjamin needed more fur．Before long，the cat began to look ragged（蓬亂）．His father said that the cat must be sick．Benjamin was forced to admit what he had been doing．
The cat's lot was about to improve． That year，one of Benjamin's cousins，Mr．Pennington，came to visit．He was impressed with Benjamin's drawings．When he went home，he sent Benjamin a box of paint and some brushes．He also sent six engravings （版畫）by an artist．These were the first pictures and first real paint and brushes Benjamin had  ever  seen．
In 1747，when Benjamin  was nine years old，Mr．Pennington retured for another visit．He was amazed at what Benjamin had done with his gift．He asked  Benjamin's parents if he might take the boy to Philadelphia for a visit．
In the city，Mr．Pennington gave  Benjamin  materials for creating oil paintings．The boy began a landscape （風(fēng)景） painting．Wiliam Wiliams，a well-known painter，came to see him work．Wiliams was impressed with Benjamin and gave him two classic books on painting to take home．The books were long and dull．Benjamin could read only a little，having been a poor student．But he later said，"Those two books were my companions by day，and under my pillow at night．"While it is likely that he understood very little of the books，they were his introduction to classical paintings．The nine-year-old boy decided then that he would be an artist．

21．What is the text mainly about？C
A．Benjamin's visit to Philadelphia．
B．Williams'influence on Benjamin．
C．The beginning of Benjamin's life as an artist．
D．The friendship between Benjamin and Pennington．
22．What does the underlined sentence in paragraph 3 suggest？D
A．The cat would be closely watched．
B．The cat would get some medical care．
C．Benjamin would leave his home shortly．
D．Benjamin would have real brushes soon．
23．What did Pennington do to help Benjamin develop his talent？B
A．He took him to see painting exhibitions．
B．He provided him with painting materials．
C．He sent him to a school in Philadelphia．
D．He taught him how to make engravings．
24．Williams'two books helped Benjamin toD．
A．master the use of paints
B．a(chǎn)ppreciate landscape paintings
C．get to know other painters
D．make up his mind to be a painter．
