Question

【題目】 When I was a little girl, my father loved to play catch (接球) with me. I wasn't very good at it, butwe would play anyway. He was always telling me "Keep your eye on the ball" as I would not be able to catch even the easiestof throws.

As I got older, we didn't play catch as much. If I had a problem and would go to my father to ask for his advice, he would try to joke with me and say "Keep your eye on the ball". We would both laugh becauseusually that advice was not useful to the problem, but he would try to make me smile.

My father became illin 1995 when I was 23. There weren't any more conversations, as he suffered from a stroke (中風(fēng)). He could not speak. He could only give mouthwords, which were sometimes hard to understand. After a while, I seemed to be pretty good at reading at his lips (唇), even better than the nurseswho were caring for him there.

During one of our last conversations, I was telling him about a problem I was having with my boyfriend. Once again, I could read his lips "Keep your eye on the ball." We both smiled.

That was the last time I saw my father beforehe passed away.

All these years later, when I get in trouble, I just tell myself "Keep your eye on the ball".

【解析】

本文是一篇記敘文，講述了作者和父親從小時(shí)候玩“接球”游戲衍生出來(lái)的一個(gè)小暗號(hào)，陪伴了作者的一生。在父親去世后，這個(gè)小暗號(hào)如父親般一直陪著作者。

【1】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)“He was always telling me "Keep your eye on the ball" as I would not be able to catch even the easiestof throws”，可知是為了提醒女兒集中注意力、讓她接住球，故選A。

【2】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)“We would both laugh becauseusually that advice was not useful to the problem, but he would try to make me smile”，可知父親總是開(kāi)玩笑讓女兒笑，故選C。

【3】推理判斷題。根據(jù)“All these years later, when I get in trouble, I just tell myself "Keep your eye on the ball"”，可推知作者是用這句和父親之間的小暗號(hào)來(lái)鼓勵(lì)自己解決問(wèn)題，故選A。

【4】推理判斷題。Honest誠(chéng)實(shí)的；Serious嚴(yán)肅的；Careless粗心的；Cheerful快樂(lè)的。根據(jù)作者的父親總是用兩人之間的小暗號(hào)來(lái)逗笑女兒，可知父親是一個(gè)“歡快”的人，故選D。
