Question

【題目】 We live in Bedford, a town near London. My father is a hard-working pilot, so he doesn’t have much time to look after us.

When I was a kid, my mom liked to make breakfast food for dinner every now and then. And I remember one night, when she made breakfast food after a long, hard day at hospital.

On that evening, my mom placed a plate of eggs, sausage and terribly burnt biscuits in front of my dad. I remember waiting to see if anyone noticed. Yet all my dad did were reaching for a biscuit, smiling at my mom and asking my brother and me how we had been doing at school. I don’t remember what I told him that night, but I do remember watching him put butter on that biscuit and eat every bite!

When I got up from the table that evening, I remember hearing my mom apologize to my dad for burning the biscuits. And I will never forget what he said, “Honey, I love burnt biscuits.”

Later that night, I went to kiss my dad goodnight and I asked him if he really liked burnt biscuits. He wrapped me in his arms and said, “Your mom is really tired after a hard day’s work. Besides, a little burnt biscuit could never hurt anyone. We have been married for 17 years. She always cooks for me. Don’t put the key to your happiness in someone else’s hand, but put it in your own.”

【解析】

文章講述作者的媽媽把餅干燒焦了，但是爸爸不但沒有怪她而且說燒焦的餅干很好吃，作者意識到為了得到快樂的生活，一個人應該學會理解。

【1】細節(jié)理解題。根據文中的句子“My father is a hard-working pilot”可知文章中的爸爸是一名飛行員。因為本題是一個特殊疑問句，所以可以采取“問什么，答什么”的簡短方式回答，也可做完整回答。所以，簡短回答答案為A pilot；完整回答為：He is a pilot。故答案為A pilot./He is a pilot.

【2】細節(jié)理解題。文中談到了作者的爸爸和媽媽以及作者的弟弟�？芍�作者一家共有四口人。因為本題是一個特殊疑問句，所以可以直接采取“問什么，答什么”的簡短方式回答�？梢灾苯訉憯底�4，也可以寫英文four，但是首字母要大寫。故答案為4/Four.

【3】細節(jié)理解題。根據文章中的句子“Later that night, I went to kiss my dad goodnight and I asked him if he really liked burnt biscuits. He wrapped me in his arms and said, “Your mom is really tired after a hard day’s work. Besides, a little burnt biscuit could never hurt anyone. We have been married for 17 years. She always cooks for me.”可知爸爸不是真正的喜歡燒焦的餅干。因為句子是以does開頭一般疑問句，所以要用does來回答，does的否定形式是doesn’t；回答中要用代詞代替句中的人，故the father要用he來代詞。本句也可以簡短回答，其形式為No；完整回答形式為No，he doesn’t。故答案為No./No, he doesn’t.

【4】因為生活中會遇到很多情況，我們需要相互理解。故答案為Yes, I agree. Because we need to learn to understand each other in our lives.
