19.It was midday when I got the call that my grandfather was not well and he was quickly getting worse.My family did not know how long he would stay in the world.I knew I had to get to the hospital to tell him how much I loved him.As I drove to the hospital,I pictured him before I got to tell him how much he meant to me.Trying to fight back the tears,I wanted to stay calm when I saw him.
When I got to the hospital,I hurriedly looked for his hospital room.I found him in a semi-conscious state(半清醒狀態(tài)).On my knees,I said softly,"Hello,Grandpa."
Still feeling shy,I decided not to leave his bedside without letting him know.While I asked about how he was,he told me,"I'll be fine,Henry."although we both knew that wasn't true.Then he asked me with a smile how I was doing.
Hearing what my grandpa said,I was much moved.I made the decision that I had to show my gratitude for him.As I found all the courage(勇氣) I had,I hold his hand tightly.I cried out,"Grandpa,I just want to let you know how much I love you.I hope you already know that yet I just want to make sure."By this time,the tears were rolling down my face.All those years of love that I had shut and not let him know,become free.
Smiling,he said,"I know.Thank you for telling me that.""All I have on this planet is my family and my love for them.If there is anything I could ask of you,I want you to be good to your family:your mother,your father,and your brother.That's all I want of you."
From then on,I began telling people how much I loved them,cared for them,and respected them.I get in touch with,for example,my babysitter,my barber,to show my appreciation.I go down into the city once a week and serve pizza to the homeless.I wake up every morning and list everything I'm thankful to in my life.

61.The author got the news of Grandpa's illnessB.
A.in the morningB.a(chǎn)t noonC.in the eveningD.a(chǎn)t midnight
62.The author didn't tell Grandpa his love becauseA to say love to Grandpa before.
A.he was too shyB.he was too frightened
C.he was too busyD.he had no chances
63.The underlined word"gratitude"(in Paragraph 4)meansD in Chinese.
A.興奮B.驚訝 D.害怕D.感激
64.The author wrote this passage to tell readers mainly aboutD.
A.how to think highly of othersB.how to help others get out of trouble
C.how to get in touch with othersD.how to share feelings with others
65.The story develops with the changes ofC.
A.the author's lifeB.Grandpa's feelings
C.the author's emotionD.Grandpa's illness.

分析 在外公快去世的時(shí)候作者才意識還沒有對他說出自己的愛,在病床前跟外公說出自己的心聲,表達(dá)自己的感激,從此改變作者對于人生的態(tài)度,心中充滿了愛和感恩.

解答 61.B   細(xì)節(jié)理解題   根據(jù)第一段提到It was midday when I got the call that my grandfather was not well and he was quickly getting worse 中午時(shí)我得到電話,我的外公不太好,情況惡化地很快,故答案為B.
62.A   細(xì)節(jié)理解題   根據(jù)第三段Still feeling shy,I decided not to leave his bedside without letting him know我仍然感到害羞,我決定要去告訴他我愛他.可知我不對外公表達(dá)愛意,是因?yàn)槲姨π吡耍蚀鸢笧锳
63.D   細(xì)節(jié)理解題   根據(jù)第四段提到Hearing what my grandpa said,I was much moved.I made the decision that I had to show my gratitude for him.聽到外公說的,我很感動(dòng).我決定表達(dá)我的_,因?yàn)槲艺业轿业挠職猓芍颂幰鉃楸硎緦ν夤母屑,故答案為D
64.D    推理判斷題   根據(jù)最后一段提到From then on,I began telling people how much I love them,care for them,and respect them.作者學(xué)會(huì)如何與別人分享感情,故答案為D
65.C    推理判斷題   根據(jù)短文大意可知,事情的發(fā)展是圍繞著外公去世作者的情感變化來寫的,所以故事是以作者的感情變化來寫的.故答案為C

點(diǎn)評 做這道題時(shí)要先通讀全文,弄清短文大意,然后根據(jù)相關(guān)句子選出正確答案,最后仔細(xì)檢查.

7.Sue and Jim were neighbours for five years but they were never interested in each other.Then one day,Sue saw Jim's music collection.She noticed a rare punk rock CD that she also owned.At that moment,she realized that they both had the same interest in music and they started talking.Sue said,"I thought we had nothing in common(相同)until I saw his CD by the New York Dolls."They are now married and living with each other.
Some psychologists (心理學(xué)家) think that your taste in music is related to (有聯(lián)系的) your personality.As part of a test at the University of Texas,Austin,USA,volunteers created a CD of their favourite songs.The volunteers then listened to each other's CDs and made guesses about the CD creator's personality-outgoing,adventurous,happy,and so on.These strangers correctly guessed much more about each others'personalities through their CDs than through their clothes or taste in films.For example,Sue and Jim love punk music,which means they have outgoing personalities.
The psychologists who did the test found Snoop Dogg (hip-hop) fans are likely to be energetic and talkative.People who like U2 (rock/pop music) are generally independent and adventurous.
The psychologists also found that Louis Armstrong(jazz) fans tend to(傾向于) be shy.The psychologists were surprised to find that rap and heavy metal fans were also shier and quieter than many other music lovers.

An opinion•Your (63)tastein music is related to your personality.
