Question

20．Last week my youngest son and I visited my father at his new home in Tucson，Arizona．He moved there a few years ago，and I couldn't wait to see his new house and meet his friends．
     My earliest memories of my father are a tall，handsome，successful man devoted to his work and his family，but uncomfortable with his children．As a child I loved him．He seemed unhappy with me if I didn't get A's in my exams and unhappy with my friends if their fathers were not as"successful"as he was．Whenever I went out with him on weekends，I used to try hard to think out things to say，feeling on guard．
     On the first day of my visit，we went out with one of my father's friends for lunch at an outdoor cafe．We walked along that afternoon，did some shopping，ate on the street table，and laughed over my son's funny facial expressions．Gone was my father's critical（挑剔的） air and strict rules．Who was this friendly and interesting person now？What had made him so critical before？
     The next day dad pulled out his childhood pictures and told me quite a few stories about his own childhood．Although our times together became easier over the years，I never felt closer to him at that moment．After so many years，I'm at last seeing another side of my father．And I'm happy to be with my new friend．My dad，in his new home in Arizona，is back to me from where he was．

Answer 1

分析 文章講述作者過去一直以為爸爸是個嚴(yán)厲、苛刻的人，和他相處時，總是感到懼怕和緊張，但是在到了Tucson，和爸爸接觸之后才看到爸爸友善的一面．

解答 31．C 細(xì)節(jié)理解題．根據(jù)文章第二段中的"He seemed unhappy with me unless I got straight A？s and unhappy with my boyfriends if their fathers were not as？successful？as he was．"可知，作者小時候懷恨爸爸是因為爸爸對她要求很高．故選C．
32．D 推理判斷題．根據(jù)第二段中"Whenever I went out with him on weekends，I used to struggle to think up things to say，feeling on guard．"可知每次和父親一起外出度周末，她都非常緊張．故選D．
33．B 推理判斷題．根據(jù)文章第三段和第四段的描述可知，作者的爸爸其實也很溫和、友善．從第三段結(jié)尾的幾個反問句可以知道．第四段中作者感到和爸爸成了朋友．故選B．
34．B 推理判斷題．文中的new friend指的是作者的爸爸．作者以前一直以為爸爸是個嚴(yán)厲、苛刻的人，和他相處時，總是感到懼怕和緊張，但是在到了Tucson，和爸爸接觸之后才看到爸爸友善的一面，所以作者感到她有了一個新朋友，故選B．
