It was just standing there, with Father standing on one side, and me on the other side.We were both in great anger. “Never set foot in this house again!” Father stormed. With tears welling up in my eyes, I rushed out and ran along the street. I wandered aimlessly.A young father who held a child in his arms walked past me. I felt as if I had seen my childhood from another space: happy and carefree.But now . I dont know whether it is because I have grown up or because Father is getting old. We differ in our ways of thinking. It feels like there was an iron door between us.My heart was frozen on this hot summer night. As I walked on, there were fewer and fewer people on the streets, until I had only the street lights to keep me pany. When I finally reached the highrise apartment block in which I lived, I saw that the light was still on.I thought to myself: “Is Father waiting for me, or is he still angry with me?”In fact, it was nothing. Perhaps, Father was throwing away some of his old stamps. Perhaps he thought they were useless. I never had the courage to tell him that I liked collecting stamps.All the lights were off except Fathers.Father was always like this. Maybe he didnt know how to express himself. After shouting at me, he never showed any mercy or any moments of regret.This was how he always was. He has been a leader for so long that telling everyone else what to do has bee his second nature.The light was still on. With the key in my hand, I was as nervous as I had never been. At last, I decided to open the door. As I opened the door, tears ran down my cheeks. I realized that the iron door that I had imagined between us did not exist at all. Love its second to none.语篇解读:本文是一篇记叙文。“我”和父亲发生争执,父亲对“我”发脾气说不让“我”再踏进家门。夜晚“我”在大街上徘徊,当“我”走到家楼下时,看到家里的灯始终亮着,“我”终于鼓起勇气,打开了家门8Which of the following can replace the underlined word in Paragraph 2?AShouted in relief.

After giving me a few chances, he would try to give other students a chance. My hand, though, would remain in the air, and after some time, Id start waving it around. Then, there was the time when I entered drumming classes. But all we were allowed to do in the first class was practise one beat over and over again. I never went back.I would have done terribly in the Stanford Marshmallow (果浆软糖) Experiment. In this classic study, researchers gave children a choice between one marshmallow right away and two later. The results showed that those who could wait 15 minutes ended up scoring 210 points higher on the SAT, an examination that American high school students take before they go to college.So clearly, delaying gratification or bearing up under pain has its benefits. It needs patience. Patience keeps us from being stuck to ideas formed previously, and helps us let go of our strong interest in outes. We e to accept that we dont always or immediately know what is best, and learn to recognize that our reality is in constant changes. Patience improves our understanding of deeper truths and helps us expand our views.The journey of patience is rooted in knowing that our present reality will finally give way to changes. But changes wont always happen when we think they should, and patience with ourselves es from accepting that there are things we can control and things we cant. And though we must make great efforts to keep pushing the boundaries of our awareness and to improve our ability to rest fortably in the present moment, how fast we develop isnt up to us.That same fifth grader who couldnt wait to speak out answers now sees the importance of meeting questions with a heart of patience.语篇解读:本文是夹叙夹议文。作者结合自己的经历说明了耐心的重要性。12Why did the author wave his hand in class?ATo entertain himself.BTo show his impatience.CTo give other students a chance.DTo let others know he was clever.解析:选B细节理解题。根据第一段可知,作者不停地挥舞手臂是因为举了一段时间手后,老师还不让他回答问题,他这样做是因为不耐烦了。13Whats the purpose of the Stanford Marshmallow Experiment?ATo test childrens concentration levels.BTo test how children like marshmallows.CTo test patience and its potential advantages.DTo test the bond between patience and desire.解析:选C推理判断题。根据第二段中的“The results showed that those who could wait 15 minutes ended up scoring 210 points higher on the SAT, an examination that American high school students take before they go to college”可知,这个果浆软糖实验的目的是为了测试耐心在孩子们的后期智力发展中可能存在的优势。14Which of the following can replace the underlined word “gratification” in Paragraph 3?AProgress. BPatience.CJudgement. DSatisfaction.解析:选D词义猜测题。根据该词前的delaying可知,该词的意思与第二段中的“In this classic study, researchers gave children a choice between one marshmallow right away and two later”有关,根据该句可知,延迟的是满足感,故gratification的意思与satisfaction相近。15What is the main reason for people to have patience according to the text?APresent reality.BConstant changes.CA lack of selfcontrol.DA strong interest in outes.解析:选B细节理解题。根据第三段中的“learn to recognize that our reality is in constant changes”和倒数第二段中的“The journey of patience is rooted in knowing that our present reality will finally give way to changes”可知,不断变化是我们需要有耐心的原因。.阅读七选五(2019惠州调研)Last week the electricity in my flat went out. _16_ My typical evening is spent watching TV and scrolling (滚动) through social media.
