Dear Alice,
I just received your letter. And I was very surprised to know that you decided to drop out of school and wanted to be a model (模特).
Being a model for a living is not easy. In fact, a famous person like me has a lot of problems that you couldn’t see. I can’t eat what I like, even though I’m very hungry. Keeping thin makes me look more beautiful on the stage because no one would like to see a heavy model.
Besides, I have to wear a heavy coat in the hot sun, in a swimming suit in the cold air. And practicing walking nicely every day is tiring for me.
You might say I made much money from modeling. But my dear niece (侄女), you have to know that money is, nothing, knowledge is everything. School is important and everyone should go to school for a certain period of time. The longer they stay at school, the better they will be. Very often, I hope I can give up my job and continue my studies at school. But it is very difficult for me to go back to school again. I am too old to go back to school now.
You are a pretty young girl with a bright future. You only have one year to finish your studies in high school. A year is really short. Please do consider my words carefully before you decide. Of course, there is only one thing I care about, and that is your happiness.
Love,
Emma

小題1:B
小題1:A

文章是書信體,姑姑Emma寫給侄女Alice的信,叫她認(rèn)真考慮做模特賺錢還是繼續(xù)學(xué)習(xí)的事情。
1. D 根據(jù)I was very surprised to know that you decided to drop out of school and wanted to be a model可知她吃驚的是她的侄女想從學(xué)校出來做模特,故選D(不完成學(xué)業(yè))。
2. C 細(xì)節(jié)題。從I am too old to go back to school now可知Emma太老了不能回學(xué)校,她錯(cuò)過了學(xué)習(xí)的最佳時(shí)機(jī),選C。
3. A 根據(jù)最后一段You only have one year to finish your studies in high school可知Alice還有一年高中畢業(yè),故選A。
4. B 由文章最后一句there is only one thing I care about, and that is your happiness可知選B。
5. A 根據(jù)Emma的講述Keeping thin makes me look more beautiful on the stage because no one would like to see a heavy model可知她是個(gè)模特,故A對(duì)。B答案不對(duì),從I have to wear a heavy coat in the hot sun…她必須可看出是沒辦法,而不是喜歡;C答案文章沒說,這里還只是在勸說回學(xué)校;D答案與原文不符,原文說的是:I can’t eat what I like, even though I’m very hungry。

It was the proudest moment of my life,too.Maybe I’ll never be a great hero or win aNobel Prize,but it was enough just to be my father’s son.
