Question

【題目】Dear Mom,

I’m sorry that I can’t go back home for Mother’s Day next week. On that day, I’ll have to go to an important meeting for my boss, who helps me a lot with my work and life here. But I’ll find time to see you at home soon.

Mom, thank you for everything you’ve done for Tim and me. After Dad died in a traffic accident ten years ago, you had to work in a supermarket in the daytime and in a restaurant at night. But you always gave us two your love and care. Though you don’t have to work now, I still remember your coming home and feeling tired many evenings.

Tim is going to finish his studies next month. He said he would move back from school and look for a job near home. I’m glad you won’t live by yourself anymore. Let’s plan to take a trip in the near future. It’s been over 5 years since the three of us took a trip together.

Happy Mother’s Day! I love you, Mom.

Best wishes,

John

文章大意：本文是約翰在母親節(jié)寫給媽媽的信，告訴媽媽自己因為要開會所以不能回去。同時感謝了媽媽這些年的辛苦付出，打算和媽媽、弟弟一起去度假，并給了媽媽最好的祝福。

【1】細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)Mom, thank you for everything you’ve done for Tim and me.以及After Dad died in a traffic accident ten years ago,可知，十年前，約翰家里有爸爸、媽媽、弟弟和約翰，共四口人，故答案選C。

【2】細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)On that day, I’ll have to go to an important meeting for my boss,可知，約翰要和老板去開會，所以母親節(jié)不能回家，故答案選C。

【3】細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)Tim is going to finish his studies next month. He said he would move back from school and look for a job near home. I’m glad you won’t live by yourself anymore.可知，約翰的媽媽現(xiàn)在是一個人住，故答案選A。

【4】細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)Tim is going to finish his studies next month.可知，蒂姆將很快完成他的學業(yè)，結(jié)合選項可知C選項符合題意，其他選項均與題意不符，故答案選C。

【5】理解判斷題。A、約翰的父親在工作時去世了；根據(jù)After Dad died in a traffic accident ten years ago,可知約翰的父親死于車禍，所以A選項錯誤。B、蒂姆將找到一份教書的工作；根據(jù)He said he would move back from school and look for a job near home.可知，蒂姆說他打算在離家近的地方找工作，但沒有說找一份教書的工作，所以B選項錯誤。C、約翰給他媽媽買了一份禮物；通讀全文可知，文中沒有提到約翰給他媽媽買禮物，所以C選項錯誤。D、約翰希望和家人去旅行；根據(jù)Let’s plan to take a trip in the near future.可知，D選項正確。本題是問根據(jù)信的內(nèi)容，哪一個選項是正確的，故答案選D。
