這篇文章通過作者的故事告訴我們，在我們的生活中，經(jīng)常遇到很多問題需要向他人尋求建議，而有些建議你將會(huì)珍惜一生。

【1】

句意：我非常生氣，最后終于忍受不了她了。

hear聽見；stand忍受；describe描述；forget忘記。分析“I became so angry that I couldn’t____1____her at last. I ran to my____2____with tears in my eyes.”可知，朋友一直說我，我很生氣，最后忍受不了跑去哭訴。此處強(qiáng)調(diào)“忍受”，其他三項(xiàng)不符合語意。故選B。

【2】

句意：我含淚跑向父親。

father父親；teacher教師；friend朋友；mother母親。根據(jù)后文“I brought the list back to Daddy.”可知，我是去向父親尋求建議的。故選A。

【3】

句意：他平靜地聽我說，然后問道:“她說的是真的還是假的?”

excitedly激動(dòng)地；directly直接地；quickly迅速地；quietly安靜地。根據(jù)后文父親的反應(yīng)和說的話可知，父親是安靜地聽我說然后給我建議，其他三項(xiàng)不符合語意。故選D。

【4】

句意：簡，你有沒有想過自己到底是什么樣的人？

decide決定；enjoy欣賞；wonder想知道；remember記得。分析句子可知，此處父親提出問題，“你有沒有想過自己到底是什么樣的人”，強(qiáng)調(diào)“想知道”。故選C。

【5】

句意：去把她說的每句話都列一個(gè)清單，并標(biāo)出哪些是真的。

fascinating迷人的；true真的；wrong錯(cuò)誤的；necessary必要的。根據(jù)后文“To my great surprise, I discovered that about half the things were true.”可知，我發(fā)現(xiàn)列出來的有一半是真的，所以此處也在強(qiáng)調(diào)“真的”。故選B。

【6】

句意：有些我無法改變，比如很矮。

talkative健談的，多嘴的；proud驕傲的；top名列前茅的；short矮的。根據(jù)前文“I was very short, I wasn’t a top student, I talked too much, I was too proud and so on.”可知，我個(gè)子矮，這是沒辦法改變的。故選D。

【7】

句意：他拒絕看它。

refused拒絕；agreed同意；hated討厭；hurried匆忙。根據(jù)后文“That’s just for you”可知，父親說這是屬于我自己的，所以他“拒絕”看我寫的清單。故選A。

【8】

句意：你比任何人都更了解自己。

worse更壞；closer更近；better更好；earlier更早。分析上下文可知，父親讓我列好清單然后自己看，因?yàn)闆]有人比自己更了解自己。故選C。

something某事；anything任何事；nothing沒事；everything每件事。分析句子可知，此處用于從句中作主語，表示“當(dāng)說到你的某件情是真的，你會(huì)發(fā)現(xiàn)它將對(duì)你有幫助”，可用不定代詞something表示。故選A。

【10】
