【解析】【1】根據(jù)下一句．..it gets tougher and tougher for him to say those words...可知，當(dāng)你還是孩子的時候都說不出口，當(dāng)他……的時候就越來越難了。

【2】根據(jù)上句語境可知，隨著他年齡越來越大。

【3】根據(jù)語境，作者也不記得最后一次跟父親說“我愛你”是什么時候的事情了。

【4】set aside把……放置在一邊，符合語境。

【5】經(jīng)過一番猶豫后，作者在電話中說出了“我愛你”。struggle表示內(nèi)心的掙扎，而此時作者已經(jīng)決定要先行動了，所以應(yīng)是“猶豫”。

【6】burst out脫口而出；work on從事于；make up編造；look for尋找。根據(jù)引號中的內(nèi)容可知，作者脫口而出對父親說“我愛你”。

【7】根據(jù)下文父親笨拙地回答說“也愛你！”可知父親是沒有思想準(zhǔn)備的，所以此時電話那頭應(yīng)該是片刻的沉默。

【8】根據(jù)引號里的內(nèi)容可知，父親很笨拙地回答兒子的話，故replied符合語境。

【9】結(jié)合本文主題父愛不容易說出口，可知作者在說他知道父親也愛他。

【10】根據(jù)下文I explained to her perfectly.可知，是作者的母親打電話詢問。

【11】詢問“一切還好嗎？”，根據(jù)下文I explained to her perfectly.也可知，OK符合語境。

【12】由下文可知，父親用“保羅，我愛你！”結(jié)束了這次通話，conclude結(jié)束，符合語境。

【13】根據(jù)上文Dad__12__our phone conversation with the words...可知，作者接電話時正在工作。

【14】父親在電話里說出了這句話，所以作者應(yīng)該是“聽到了”才符合語境。

【15】由上文父親對作者說“我愛你”，作者才意識到這一特殊的時刻已經(jīng)使得他們的父子……上升到了一個新水平。

【16】四個選項中，relationship最符合語境，意為：……使得我們父子關(guān)系上升到了一個新水平。

【17】由下文可知，在這之后不久，父親做了次手術(shù)，after符合語境。

【18】父親手術(shù)后九死一生。narrowly escape death險些死亡，符合語境。

【19】要是作者沒有邁出第一步，父親也沒有從手術(shù)中幸存下來，作者永遠不會再聽到“愛”。

【20】根據(jù)語境可知，作者的父親從手術(shù)中幸存下來了，故選survive。

【題目】閱讀下面的短文，然后按照要求寫一篇150詞左右的英文短文。

Every morning, on his way to work, Mike passed an old man who was always at the same place with a cup in his hand hoping to get a bit of change from those who passed by. For most people, this person was someone to be ignored as if he didn’t exist, someone who they didn’t want to be bothered with. However, Mike would always say good morning to him and wish him a nice day and sometimes would drop a dollar or two in his cup. This behavior went on for several years until one day before retirement.

He told the man that he would no longer pass by because it was his last day on the job. The man took his hand and shook it warmly saying that he had always looked forward to seeing Mike not because he dropped a few dollars in his cup. He said he would miss him because he was one of the few people who said hello and bid him good day. The man also said that his warm words always brightened his day and helped him to continue.

We all have the power of words and we often do not recognize that some can be devastating(毀滅性的) while some can be encouraging.

1. 以約30個詞概括上文的主要內(nèi)容；

2. 然后以約120個詞就言語的力量的話題發(fā)表你的看法，并包括以下要點：

（1）你對上文中Mike的做法持什么看法；

（2）談?wù)勅粘Ｉ钪醒哉Z的力量；

（3）以你或他人的經(jīng)歷舉例論證言語的力量。

【寫作要求】

1. 在作文中可以使用自己親身的經(jīng)歷或虛構(gòu)的故事，也可以參照閱讀材料的內(nèi)容，但不得直接引用原文中的句子；

2. 作文中不能出現(xiàn)真實姓名和學(xué)校名稱。

【評分標(biāo)準(zhǔn)】

概括準(zhǔn)確，語言規(guī)范，內(nèi)容合適，篇章連貫。

【題目】【原創(chuàng)】Here are some apps （程序）on your phones which can help you think positively or aim at happiness. Examine them, and you can have fun .

Happify is perhaps the most popular positive app available now. By asking some questions about your goals in using the app, it recommends you some tracks.

Each track contains games and activities that guide you to seeing positive aspects of your daily life. It also regularly helps you assess your happiness level, pointing out how you can feel more positive merely by changing your habits. There’s also a community page in the app where you can see inspirational comments by other users and even upload your own .

Happify’s only drawback is that while it’s free to download and use, access to its full range of activities costs $13 a month or $70 a year.

Other apps use a different route to developing positive thinking habits. They simply expose you repeatedly to motivational ideas, quotes and suggestions.

Positive Thinking is a relatively simple attempt at this kind of app. It uses colorful imagery and simple controls, and has a list of motivational quotes and suggestions — everything from “do sports” to “stop thinking ... sit there relaxed.” It’s extremely basic, and there’s not a huge amount of content but you may find it has some good ideas and it’s free.

The app Mood Journal, which costs $2, has a great-looking. Through text-entry controls you can make a diary-style note in the app of when you’re feeling positive, and also add a photo. When you’ve accumulated enough entries, the app presents some analytics in the form of graphs that show your positivity over time. This could help you plan strategies to be more positive. , and also add a photo or a selfie.

If you prefer a more meditative approach to positive thinking, check out Smiling Mind, a free iOS and Android app. You enter data on how you’re feeling, using a number of slide controls that ask if you’re feeling “stormy” or “calm,” for example. Then you listen to a meditation-like voice track that talks you through different programs.

【1】How does Happify help you think positive?

A. By playing through games and activities.

B. By exposing you to motivational ideas repeatedly.

C. By controlling your negative thoughts.

D. By analyzing the changes of your emotions.

【2】What does “drawback” in Paragraph 4 refer to?

A .advantage B. mistake

C. benefit D. weakness

【3】Compared with Happify, Positive Thinking _____.

A. has more content. B. is more expensive.

C. is much simpler. D. is more popular.

【4】Who may be interested in this passage?

A. A primary student who is playful.

B.A college student who feels stressed and boring.

C. An office secretary who is optimistic.

D.A retired teacher who lives a meaningful life.

【5】How many apps does the writer introduce?
