题型:不详难度:来源:
Dear Cary,I’m writing because I’ve understood you’ve struggled with alcoholism(酗酒).I’ve been fighting mine ever since I went through 9-11.After that,I’ve been more or less useless professionally –I’m a lawyer–and have had to resign from my job because I was discovered passed-out drunk in front of my computer. I’ve taken some medicine and it has helped somewhat. I can manage about a month without drinking,but after that I end up having a crazy stage where nothing matters except drinking.After a week or so of heavy drinking,I start having nightmares of people jumping. After that,it’s a week of not being able to get out of bed.
I was supposed to travel to a conference but didn’t make it because I got so drunk at the airport that I fell down on my face and spent the rest of the day in the emergency room. I have been hiding from my family since then.Fortunately they won’t be expecting me to come back for a week or so. Otherwise, they would notice the bump on my forehead and two black eyes.
I don’t really know what I’m asking you.Cary, I need a way out that doesn’t involve causing pain to my family.I’m taking medicine,but I still have these attacks every few months.If there’s alcohol in the house,I can’t stay away from it.It seems that this will never end. I’m afraid of what will happen if something bad happens,like a family member dying, or getting fired again.
Thanks for reading.
Yours T

试题分析:本文叙述了作者写信给Cary,让他帮着像一个办法改掉酗酒的毛病。作者是一名职业律师,自从9-11事件以后一直酗酒。因为醉倒在电脑前,不得不辞职了。作者和想戒掉酗酒,但是戒不掉。他不想给家人带来痛苦,因此想让已经戒酒成功的Cary帮助他。
小题1:细节理解题。根据第一段的I’ve been fighting mine ever since I went through 9-11.After that,I’ve been more or less useless professionally –I’m a lawyer–and have had to resign from my job because I was discovered passed-out drunk in front of my computer. 作者是一名职业律师,一直与酗酒作斗争。因为醉倒在电脑前,不得不辞职了。因此B项说他很少喝醉是不符合文章的意思。D项drunk as a fish“烂醉如泥”。
故选B。
小题2:推理判断题。根据第三段的Cary, I need a way out that doesn’t involve causing pain to my family.可知作者写信给Cary,是想让他来帮他想一个办法戒酒。故选D。
小题3:推理判断题。根据第三段的 that doesn’t involve causing pain to my family和I’m afraid of what will happen if something bad happens,like a family member dying, or getting fired again.可知作者担心给家人带来痛苦。故选C。
小题4: 推理判断题。根据第二段的I was supposed to travel to a conference but didn’t make it because I got so drunk at the airport可知作者喝醉了没能去参加一个会议。故选B。
小题5:推理判断题。根据第一段的I’m writing because I’ve understood you’ve struggled with alcoholism和第三段的Cary, I need a way out that doesn’t involve causing pain to my family可知Cary已经与酗酒做斗争成功了,从酗酒中恢复过来了,现在作者正让他帮着想个办法戒酒。故选C

A little girl, holding her money firmly, entered the store. Before she could say a word, the store clerk sharply told her to get outside and read the sign on the door, and stay out until she put on the shoes. She left slowly, and a big man followed her out of the store.
The man watched as she stood in front of the store and read the sign. “No Bare (赤裸) Feet”.
Tears started rolling down her cheeks as she turned and walked away. Just then the big man called to her. After sitting down on the roadside, he took off his size-12 shoes, set them in front of the girl and saying, “Here, you won’t be able to walk in these, but if you slide (拖) along, you can get your ice cream.”
Then he lifted the little girl up and set her feet into the shoes. “Take your time,” he said, “I get tired of moving them around, and it’s good to just sit here and eat my ice cream.”
The shining eyes of the little girl could not be missed as she ordered her ice cream.
He was a big man, all right. Big body, big shoes, but most of all, he had a big heart.

One night I felt so powerless that I got down on my knees and asked God for help. "Please God, I can"t do anything more for my son. I"m at the end of my rope. I"m giving the whole thing up to you."
I was at work when I got a phone call. A man introduced himself as the headmaster. "I want to talk to you about Karl"s absences." Before he could say another word, I choked up (哽咽) and all my disappointment and sadness over Karl came pouring out into the ears of this stranger. "I love my son, but I just don"t know what to do. I"ve tried everything to get Karl to go back to school and nothing has worked. It"s out of my hands." For a moment there was silence on the other end of the line. The headmaster seriously said, "Thank you for your time", and hung up.
Karl’s next report card showed a marked improvement in his grades. Finally, he was even on the list of the best students at school. In his fourth year, I attended a parent-teacher meeting with Karl. I noticed that his teachers were astonished at the way he had turned himself around. On our way home, he said, "Mum, remember that call from the headmaster last year?" I nodded. "That was me. I thought I"d play a joke but when I heard what you said, it really hit me how much I was hurting you. That"s when I knew I had to make you proud."

B.the speaker waited for the mother to finish speaking |
C.the speaker didn"t want the mother to recognize his voice |

A.children in single-parent families always have mental problems |

Throughout the years of changing , schools and friends, there remained one constant in my childhood — my mother. For both my and me, she was the cook, maid and teacher. She played these roles while some type of part-time job. Leaving a career is just one of the sacrifices which my mother made for my family as we moved around the world with our father every three years or so. she had to deal with only a small budget, my mother, , managed to make each house the very home that is safe and .
This probably sounds like a depressing way to live, with two small children: “single”
parenthood, short-term friendships, and the inability to her career or establish a home. But it was not for my mother. She turned this into adventure for us all! Each relocation (变换位置) was a chance to another part of the world. My mother greeted each new culture, climate and neighborhood. Each new house was a to rearrange furniture, make curtains and pictures. Every part-time job was an opportunity to learn something new and work with interesting people.
No matter how difficult the life was, she was always having a attitude. She always had strength in the face of struggle and change. My mother was so all those years during my childhood — she was my island in a sea of change. She is my hero.
