What am I doing with my daughter at home? Rather than read aloud from books, we
go to dinner and have a very good time. This is usually when her Mom isn't around, and this is when my little girl and I relate better. They're alone together so much. We're seldom alone. When we're alone together, she and I somehow behave differently. We learn about each other. She learns that I'm her father. I learn that she's my daughter. It's a strange feeling, but any parent knows what I'm talking about when I say that I often look at my daughter and wonder just whose kid she is. Where'd she suddenly come from? And why on earth did she pick Laura and me for parents?
When my daughter and I are alone she'll hold my hand and say, “I just love you so much, Daddy!” She's so used to my leaving that when I tell her she and I are going to hang out all night, she gets this great look on her face and says, “We've got so much to do, Dad!” There's nothing like it in the world.
I want my relationship with my daughter to keep growing, so I've been giving my wife a couple of hundred dollars each week and making her go to the shopping center with her girlfriends, or something—anything!
But this closeness is not without its problems. When I'm sitting there playing with her Barbie doll(巴比娃娃)， washing her hair, a voice in me suddenly says, “I've got to get a drink and get out of here.” Right in the middle of all this pleasantness, the voice goes, “Look at yourself! You're washing dolls!”
1.Why does the husband give his wife so much money each week?
A. He wants her to buy more things for the family. 
B. She can do whatever she likes with the money. 
C. He can spend more time with his daughter. 
D. She can spend more time with her friends.   
2. Which of the following statements is true?
A. The father spends more time with the daughter than the mother does. 
B.The daughter is happy when the father tells her he will be away.
C.The father is happy, hearing “We've got so much to do, Dad!” 
D.The father is sure that the daughter is not his own.   
3.What does the last paragraph tell us about the father?
A.He doesn't enjoy being with his daughter. 
B.He doesn't like washing his daughter's hair. 
C.He likes to enjoy himself by going out for a drink. 
D.He has mixed feelings when he is with his daughter.

科目：高中英語(yǔ) 來(lái)源：不詳 題型：閱讀理解

閱讀下面短文,并按照題目要求用英語(yǔ)回答問(wèn)題.
Almost everybody in America will spend a part of his or her life behind a shopping cart（購(gòu)物手推車(chē)）. They will, in a lifetime, push the chrome-plated contraptions many miles. But few will know—or even think to ask—who it was that invented them.
Sylvan N. Goldman invented the shopping cart in 1937. At that time he was in the supermarket business. Every day he would see shoppers lugging（吃力地?cái)y帶） groceries around in baskets they had to carry.
One day Goldman suddenly had the idea of putting baskets on wheels. The wheeled baskets would make shopping much easier for his customers, and would help to attract more business.
On June 4, 1937, Goldman’s first carts were ready for use in his market. He was terribly excited on the morning of that day as customers began arriving. He couldn’t wait to see them using his invention.
But Goldman was disappointed. Most shoppers gave the carts a long look, but hardly anybody would give them a try.
After a while, Goldman decided to ask customers why they weren’t using his carts. “Don’t you think this arm is strong enough to carry a shopping basket?” one shopper replied.
But Goldman wasn’t beaten yet. He knew his carts would be a great success if only he could persuade people to give them a try. To this end, Goldman hired a group of people to push carts around his market and pretend they were shopping! Seeing this, the real customers gradually began copying the phony（假冒的） customers.
As Goldman had hoped, the carts were soon attracting larger and larger numbers of customers to his market. But not only did more people come—those who came bought more. With larger, easier-to-handle baskets, customers unconsciously bought a greater number of items than before.
Today’s shopping carts are five times larger than Goldman’s original model. Perhaps that’s one reason Americans today spend more than five times as much money on food each year as they did before 1937—before the coming of the shopping cart.
