2023年高二暑假话题阅读快乐练：家人和亲友（含答案）

2023年高二暑假话题阅读快乐练：家人和亲友 （共5题） 一、阅读理解题（共5题） I recently gave my adult class homework. The assignment was to "go to someone you love and tell them you love them. It has to be someone you have never said those words to before or haven't shared those words with for a long time". That doesn't sound like a tough assignment, but most of the men in that group were over 35 and were taught that expressing emotions is not "macho (男子汉的)". At the beginning of our next class. I asked if someone wanted to share what happened when they told someone they loved them. One of the men raised his hand. He appeared quite moved and a bit shaken. He began by saying, "I didn't feel that I had anyone to say those words to. But as I began driving home, I knew exactly who I needed to say 'I love you' to. Five years ago, my father and I had a disagreement and never resolved it. We hardly spoke to each other." "The next morning, I called my dad. When he answered the phone, I said, 'Dad, can I come over tonight I have something to tell you.' I assured him it wouldn't take long, so he finally agreed." "At 5:30, I was at my parents' house ringing the doorbell. As luck would have it, Dad answered the door." "I took one step in the door and said, "Dad, I just came over to tell you that I love you." "His face softened, his wrinkles (皱纹) disappeared and he began to cry. He reached out and hugged me and said, 'I love you too, son, but I've never been able to say it.'" "Dad and I hugged for a moment longer. I hadn't felt that great in a long time." "Two days after that visit, my dad had a heart attack and ended up unconscious in the hospital. I don't know if he'll make it." "My message to all of you is this: Don't wait to do the things that need to be done. Take the time to do what you need to do and do it now!" (1) Why might the assignment challenge the students (no more than 10 words) (2) What happened to the author's student and his father five years ago (no more than 15 words) (3) What is the meaning of the underlined part in Paragraph 5 (no more than 5 words) (4) Why did the student's father cry (no more than 10 words) (5) What do you often do when you have disagreements with your parents Please explain. (no more than 20 words) Slowly, so slowly that we never even noticed how it happened, our family stopped talking to each other. Our own worlds opened up to us through the computer or the cell phone or the CD player. Family Night was born when Mom called us for dinner. Jessica and I came and sat down. Dad loaded his plate and started to rise from the table. "Where are you going " Mom questioned. "To the living room. I have some work, " Dad replied as he hurried away. Mom's face got tight, but she said nothing. About two minutes later, my cell phone buzzed. Jessica kept her earphones on during most of the meal. Mom was clearly upset. Family Night started the next week. Mom established three rules: no phones, no music, and no leaving the table. Ev ... ...
