When I was growing up, I was ashamed to be seen with my Wap版

试题详情及答案解析

When I was growing up, I was ashamed to be seen with my father. He was severely disabled and very short, and when we would walk together, his hand on my arm for balance, people would stare. If he ever noticed or was bothered, he never let on.
It was difficult to coordinate（协调）our steps—his slow, mine impatient—and because of that, we didn’t say much as we went along. But as we started out, he always said, “You set the pace. I will try to adjust to you.”
He never talked about himself as an object of sympathy, nor did he show any envy of the more fortunate or able. What he looked for in others was a “good heart”, and if he found one, the owner was good enough for him. I believe that is a proper standard by which to judge people, even though I still don’t know accurately what a “good heart” is.
Unable to join in many activities, my father still tried to participate in some way. I now know he participated in some things indirectly through me, his only son. When I played ball (poorly), he “played” too. When I joined the Navy, he “joined” too. And when I came home on leave, he saw to it that I visited his office. Introducing me, he was really saying, “This is my son, but it is also me, and I could have done this, too, if things had been different.” Those words were never said aloud.
He has been gone many years now, but I think of him often. I wonder if he sensed my unwillingness to be seen with him during our walks. If he did, I am sorry I never told him how sorry I was, how unworthy I was, how I regretted it. I think of him when I complain about small affairs, when I am envious of another’s good fortune, when I don’t have a “good heart”.
At such times I put my hand on his arm to regain my balance, and say, “You set the pace. I will try to adjust to you.”

试题分析：这是一篇关于心态和善良的故事。父亲患有严重的残疾，身材矮小，走路需要扶着我保持平衡。我不愿意被人看到有一个这样的父亲。但是父亲心态很好，对其他人，他只在乎其是否拥有一颗善良的心。他不能参加活动，但是通过我间接地参加一些活动。父亲已经过世很多年了，但其心态一直影响着我。在我抱怨或者嫉妒，我会想起他，提醒自己保持善良的心。
【小题1】细节理解题。When I was growing up, I was ashamed to be seen with my father. He was severely disabled and very short, and when we would walk together, his hand on my arm for balance, people would stare.当长大的时候，被看到和父亲一块，我会感到羞愧。父亲严重残疾，身材矮小。当我们一起走的时候，他将手放在我的手臂上保持平衡，此时，人们会盯着我们。即由此可知，作者不想让人知道自己有一个残疾矮小的父亲，故选C。
【小题2】细节理解题。 What he looked for in others was a “good heart”, and if he found one, the owner was good enough for him.他在别人身上寻找的是一颗善良的心。如果有，他会觉得人家足够好。父亲最看重的个人品质就是善良的心。故选D。
【小题3】细节理解题。 “This is my son, but it is also me, and I could have done this, too, if things had been different.”“这是我儿子，也是我。如果不是残疾的话，我也能做这些事情。”父亲对儿子的介绍是带着满意和骄傲的，故选A。
【小题4】词义推断题。结合上文，I think of him when I complain about small affairs, when I am envious of another’s good fortune, when I don’t have a “good heart”.At such times I put my hand on his arm to regain my balance, and say, “You set the pace. I will try to adjust to you.”当我为一些小事抱怨，嫉妒别人的好运气，自己没有一颗善良的心时，我会想到父亲。作者的意思是，他将按照父亲的标准，做一个善良的人，故选C。
