【答案】

【2】actually

【3】the

【4】or

【5】to reduce

【6】cleaner

【7】that/which

【8】amazing

【9】changes

【10】patient

【解析】

試題分析：

【1】】was 根據(jù)本段第一句In 1969,the pollution was terrible可知本段敘述的是過去發(fā)生的事情。the Cuyahoga River Cleveland在過去被污染地如此地嚴重，過去沒有人能夠想象倒這條河被清理干凈。

【2】actually 本句中使用副詞actually做狀語修飾謂語動詞caught fire，actual是形容詞，不能在句中做狀語，通常只做定語或者表語修飾名詞。

【3】the 本句橫線后面的most是最高級的形式，所以使用the most outstanding的形式。

【4】 or 句意：但是這條河流的改變不是幾天或者幾個月的事情。本句中的or“或者”表示選擇的意思。

【5】 to reduce 考察固定句式：It takes sb some time to do sth做某事花了某人…時間；句中的不定式to reduce he industrial pollution and clean the water是句子真正的主語。前面的it是形式主語。

【6】cleaner 句意：最后人們的努力得到了回報，現(xiàn)在這條河比以前更干凈了。橫線后面有than，說明橫線上應該使用比較級的形式。

【7】that/which 本句是一個定語從句，先行詞是a habit，定語從句中使用關系動詞that/which指代先行詞在句做主語。

【8】 amazing 現(xiàn)在分詞轉(zhuǎn)換的形容詞常常修飾事物，過去分詞轉(zhuǎn)換的形容詞常常修飾人或者與人有關的事物。橫線后面是名詞story，說明應該使用現(xiàn)在分詞轉(zhuǎn)換的形容詞。

【9】 changes 本句中謂語部分是系動詞are，說明主語應該是一個復數(shù)形式的名詞，所以使用changes。

【10】patient 橫線前面有系動詞be，說明本句是一個祈使句be patient耐心一點。因為很多變化都是逐漸發(fā)生的，需要很多努力，我們要耐心一點。

【題目】Growing up, I remember my father as a silent, serious man—not the sort of person around whom one could laugh. As a teenager arriving in America, knowing nothing, I wanted a father who could explain the human journey. In college, when friends called home for advice, I would sink into deep depression for what I did not have.

Today, at twenty-seven, I have come to rediscover them in ways that my teenage mind would not allow—as adults and as friends with their own faults and weaknesses.

One night after my move back home, I overheard my father on the telephone. There was some trouble. Later, Dad shared the problem with me. Apparently my legal training had earned me some privileges in his eyes. I talked through the problem with Dad, analyzing the purposes of the people involved and offering several negotiation strategies(策略).He listened patiently before finally admitting, “I can’t think like that. I am a simple man.”

Dad is a brilliant scientist who can deconstruct the building blocks of nature. Yet human nature is a mystery to him. That night I realized that he was simply not skilled at dealing with people, much less the trouble of a conflicted teenager. It’s not in his nature to understand human desires.

And so, there it was—it was no one’s fault that my father held no interest in human lives while I placed great importance in them. We are at times born more sensitive, wide-eyed, and dreamy than our parents and become more curious and idealistic than them. Dad perhaps never expected me for a child. And I, who knew Dad as an intelligent man, had never understood that his intelligence did not cover all of my feelings.

It has saved me years of questioning and confusion. I now see my parents as people who have other relationships than just Father and Mother. I now overlook their many faults and weaknesses, which once annoyed me.

I now know my parents as friends: people who ask me for advice; people who need my support and understanding. And I’ve come to see my past clearer.

【1】What was the author’s impression of her father when she was a teenager?

A. Friendly but irresponsible.

B. Intelligent but severe.

C. Cold and aggressive.

D. Caring and communicative.

【2】 Why did the author feel depressed when her friends called home?

A. She did not have a phone to call home.

B. Her father did not care about her human journey.

C. Her father was too busy to answer her phone.

D. Her father couldn’t give her appropriate advice.

【3】 After the author overheard her father on the telephone, _________ .

A. he blamed her for impoliteness.

B. he rediscovered human nature.

C. he consulted with her about his problem.

D. he changed his attitude towards the author.

【3】Which of the following is the best title of this passage?

A. My Parents as Friends.

B. My Parents as advisors.

C. My father—a serious man.

D. My father—an intelligent scientist.
