【解析】試題分析：有一天老父親看到靠窗子的樹上落了一只鳥，就問了兒子3次：那樹上是什么？，兒子很不耐煩。老父親拿出了一本記錄兒子成長的日記。上面記錄了兒子3歲的時候問了相同的問題23次，而父親每次都是很耐心告訴孩子：那是一只烏鴉。

【1】細節(jié)理解題。由““It’s a crow, a crow, a crow.” said the son loudly.”可知父親問了3次讓兒子很不耐煩。 impatient沒有耐心的；excited 激動； hurried 匆忙； surprised驚訝的。故選A。

【2】推理判斷題。由最后一段可知父親的日記記錄了兒子3歲的時候問了相同的問題但是父親沒有生氣，所以父親想試試兒子的耐心。 故選D。

【3】推理判斷題。兒子今年45歲，日記中3歲，所以今年80歲的父親42年前是38歲。 故選B。

【4】主旨大意題。全文講了相同的事情父親和兒子不同的反應(yīng)，表現(xiàn)的是父親對兒子的愛。 故選B。
