Dear Dad,
Today I was at the shopping mall and I spent a lot of time reading the Father's Day cards. They all had a special message that in some way or another reflected how I feel about you. Yet as I selected and read, it occurred to me that not a single card said what I really want to say to you.
You'll soon be 84 years old, Dad, and you and I will have had 55 Father's Days together. I haven't always been with you on Father's Day but I've always been with you in my heart.
You know, Dad, there was a time when we were separated by the generation gap. You stood on one side of the Great Divide and I on the other.
The Father-Daughter Duel shifted into high gear ( 档位) when you taught me to drive the old Dodge and I decided I would drive the '54 Chevy whether you liked it or not. The police officer who sent me home, after you reported the Chevy stolen, didn't have much tolerance for a stubborn 16 year old, while you were so tolerant about it, Dad, and I think that was probably what made it the worst night of my life.
Our relationship greatly improved when I married a man you liked, and things really turned around when we began making babies right and left. Somewhere along the line, the generation gap disappeared. I suppose I saw us and our relationship as aging together, rather like a fine wine.
But the strangest thing happened last week. I was at a stop sign and I watched as you turned the corner in your car. It didn't immediately occur to me that it was you because the man driving looked so elderly and fragile behind the wheel of that huge car. It was rather like a slap in the face delivered from out of nowhere. Perhaps I saw your age for the first time that day.
I guess what I'm trying to say, Dad, is what every son and daughter wants to say to their Dad today. Honoring a father on Father's Day is about respect and sharing and acceptance and tolerance and giving and taking. It's about loving someone more than words can say, and it's wishing that never had to end.
I love you, Dad.
Love,
Jenny

【解析】
试题分析:本文是一封女儿在父亲节之际写给八十四岁老父亲的一封感人至深的信,在信中作者回忆了父亲对自己叛逆时期所表现出的宽容,讲述了父女关系的逐步改善,也表达了女儿对父亲的感激之情,让读者也感受到了“父爱如山”这句话的含义。
1.C推理判断题。A失望的;B紧张的;C内疚的;D害怕的。从文章第四段while you were so tolerant about it, Dad, and I think that was probably what made it the worst night of my life.可知作者因为父亲对她的宽容而内心愧疚,答案选C。
2.D细节理解题。根据文章第三段there was a time when we were separated by the generation gap. You stood on one side of the Great Divide and I on the other.可知Jenny和父亲曾经有段时期因为代沟而不能很好的了解彼此,故答案选D.
3.B细节理解题.从文章第六段It didn't immediately occur to me that it was you because the man driving looked so elderly and fragile behind the wheel of that huge car.可知作者一时没有认出父亲来是因为她没有意识到父亲竟然如此衰老,所以内心涌出一种与往日不同的情感,答案选B。
4.C推理判断题。文章开头介绍了这封信的写作时间是在父亲节,当作者挑选父亲节贺卡时内心的感受:it occurred to me that not a single card said what I really want to say to you.而且在文章末段作者又表达了对父爱的感激之情,由此判断C选项正确。

It _50_ my heart up when I saw Dad cough terribly 51 his hand covering his mouth. When the pains became unbearable, he _52_ took some pills.
So 53 surprised when the day came that Dad got sick. He was lying in bed, and all the family gathered around him. I knelt by his beside, tears filling my eyes.
Dear Dad, you’ve been _54_ yourself too hard, which you should not have. I know I might as well _55_ a river to flow backward as hope to talk you out of working so hard. But I still want to say, “Dad, take better care of yourself!”

Yours,
Jimmy
