题目分析:这篇短文讲述的是作者从父亲的身上所学到的一个道理,即永不放弃。作者讲述了父亲的亲身经历,父亲小时候生活贫困,想去美国改变这种生活状态。刚开始在美国的时候,生活也是很艰难,但是父亲坚决不放弃,继续努力工作,终于实现了梦想。所以永不放弃也成了作者的生活法则。

小题1:考查名词及语境的理解。句意:永不放弃,这是我的生活法则,它为我带来了成功。disaster 灾难;loss 损失;success 成功;pity 遗憾。根据句意可知,永不放弃会为人们带来成功。故选C。

小题2:考查名词及语境的理解。句意:我是从父亲的生活中学到这一法则的。life 生活;fashion 时尚;danger 危险;history历史。根据下文可知,作者从父亲的经历中知道了,不放弃才能成功,故选A。

小题3:考查形容词及语境的理解。句意:我的父亲出生于江苏省北部的一个贫穷的小村庄。famous 著名的;lucky 幸运的;rich 富有的;born 出生。根据句意可知这里是说父亲出生的地方,故用born。

小题4:考查动词及语境的理解。句意:在他还是一个小孩子的时候,他每天早上上学,放学后在地里工作直到太阳落山。talk 谈论;work 工作;study 学习;sleep睡觉。有空后的in the field 可知,是在地里工作。故选B。

小题5:考查介词及语境的理解。句意:然后他在半夜时候做作业。until 直到……时候;towards 朝……;for 为了;during 在……期间。因为他父亲小的时候要一边做农活,一边上学,所以等他写作业的时候都到了半夜了。故选D。

小题6:考查名词及语境的理解。句意:生活是艰难的,因为他们没有钱。experience 经历,经验;energy 精力,能量;time 时间;money 钱。根据前面的句意可知,那时候的生活艰难,可见是没有钱。其他的选项都跟生活艰难没有关系。故选D。

小题7:考查形容词及语境的理解。句意:14岁的时候,我的父亲听说了美国,那里是一个能让穷人变富的地方。kind 好心的,善良的;poor 穷的;strong 强壮的;lazy懒惰的。根据句子中become rich 可知,在美国,穷人能变成富人。故选B。

小题8:考查疑问词及语境的理解。句意:他想:我为什么不能去美国呢?what 什么;how 怎样;why 为什么;when当……时候。这里是说当父亲听说了美国这个地方后,他也想着能去美国。故选C。

小题9:考查动词及语境的理解。句意:我原以为在美国赚钱是很容易的。discover 发现;make 转钱;collect 收集;spend 花费。前文提到美国是一个能让穷人变富的地方,所以会以为在美国赚钱会很容易。make money 赚钱。故选B。

小题10:考查形容词及语境的理解。句意:他们不愿意雇佣我,因为我不会说英语。little 少的;good 好的;much 多的;excellent 优秀的。根据句意可知他们不雇佣我,可见是我不说英语。故用little ,表示否定的意思。

小题11:考查动词及语境的理解。句意:后来,我在一个小餐馆里工作,打扫桌子,洗碗,擦地。give 给;run 跑;wash 洗;receive 收到。这里是作者的父亲在餐馆工作,那么应该是洗碗。故选C。

小题12:考查形容词及语境的理解。句意:刚去的那几年日子过得很艰难。comfortable 舒服的;cheerful 欢呼的;nice 好心的,好看的;hard艰难的。根据作者父亲后面所说的话可知,每天要从上午10点工作到晚上11点。可见生活很辛苦。故选D。

小题13:考查动词及语境的理解。句意:我想去学校里学习英语,但那是不可能的,因为我负担不起学费。borrow 借;need 需要;afford负担得起;pay 付款。根据上文可知,作者的父亲在刚去美国时,生活很艰难,故我们可以推测出他没有钱交学费。couldn’t afford 负担不起。故选C。

小题15:考查副词及语境的理解。句意:他经常对我说:如果你想得到一样东西,你就要为了它而努力工作,并且永远不要放弃。生活中的事情并不是那么容易就得到的。这就是我从父亲身上所学到的东西。really 真的;easily 容易地;quietly 安静地;slowly慢地。根据文意可知,想要实现梦想,必须要付出努力,而且不能放弃,故生活中的梦想并不是那么容易实现的。故选B。
