In the doorway of my home，I looked closely at my 23?year?old son，Daniel.In a few hours he would be flying to France to __1__ a different life.It was a transitional (过渡的) time in Daniel’s life.I wanted to __2__ him some words of significance.But nothing came from my lips，and this was not the __3__ time I had let such moments pass.
When Daniel was five，I took him to the bus stop on his first day of kindergarten.He asked，“What is it going to be like，Dad？Can I do it？” Then he walked __4__ the steps of the bus and disappeared inside.The bus drove away and I said nothing.A decade later，a similar __5__ played itself out.
I drove him to college.As I started to leave，I tried to think of something to say to give him __6__ and confidence as he started this new stage of life.Again，words __7__ me.
Now，as I stood before him，I thought of those __8__ opportunities.How many times have I let such moments __9__？I don’t find a quiet moment to tell him what he has __10__ to me.Or what he might __11__ to face in the years ahead.Maybe I thought it was not necessary to say anything.
What does it matter in the course of a lifetime if a father never tells a son what he really thinks of him？__12__ as I stood before Daniel，I knew that it did matter.My father and I loved each other.Yet I always __13__ never hearing him put his __14__ into words.Now I could feel my palms sweat and my throat tighten.Why is it so __15__ to tell a son something from the heart?
My mouth turned dry，and I knew I would be able to get out only a few words clearly.“Daniel，”I said，“if I could have picked，I would have picked you.” That’s all I could say.He hugged me.For a moment，the world __16__，and there were just Daniel and me.He was saying something，but tears misted my eyes，and I couldn’t understand what he was saying.All I was __17__ of was the stubble (短须) on his chin as his face pressed __18__ mine.What I had said to Daniel was __19__.It was nothing.And yet，it was __20__.

【语篇解读】 父爱无语。离别时作为父亲的“我”该向儿子说些什么呢？简短而又略显不得体的话“假如让我选择的话，我会选择你”让儿子深深地懂得了父子情深。
1．A 体验一种不同的生活。experience有“经历、体验”的意思。enjoy意为“享受”，不符合语境。
2．B “我想给他一些有重要意义的话语。”故用give。其他选项不符合语境。
3．B 根据下文判断这不是“我”第一次让这种时刻溜走。
4．D 根据情景判断，表示“上车”，所以用up。
5．B a similar scene类似的一幕 (情景)。
6．C 根据所填词的并列项confidence及下文as引导的句子可以判断，此处作者想说点什么以给儿子勇气和信心。故C项符合语境。
7．A Words failed me相当于“I couldn’t express how I felt.”，意为“我说不出话来”。
8．D 根据上下文可知，作者在回忆那些已经失去了的机会。
9．B 根据第一段最后一句可知答案。pass在此处指 (时间)流逝。
10．B mean意味着。本句的意思为“我无法找到一个安静的时候来告诉他他对我来说意味着什么”。
11．C expect预料，预计。think后面不能接动词不定式；want和wish表示主观上的意愿或希望。
12．A 上文的言下之意是这件事情不重要，这样本句和上文构成转折关系，所以用But。
13．B 作者对没有听到父亲对他表达爱的话而感到遗憾，所以用regret。
14．C 把情感 (feelings)通过语言 (words)的形式表达出来。
15．C 根据上文判断，作者不知道为什么向儿子说一些肺腑之言如此困难。hard困难的，符合语境。essential必不可少的；complex复杂的。
16．A 根据下文的there were just Daniel and me判断本句表示世界消失 (disappear)了。
17．C “我”能感觉到的是……be aware of感觉到，意识到；be convinced of相信，确信；be tired of对……厌倦。sensitive敏感的，常用be sensitive to意为“对……敏感”。根据语境可知C项正确。
18．B 根据语境“他的脸贴着我的脸”可知，press against“使贴着”符合语境。
19．A 根据下文It was nothing可知答案。clumsy笨拙的；gentle温柔的；absurd荒唐的；moving感动人的。
20．D 本句和上句构成转折关系 (and yet相当于however)，所以填everything和nothing相对应。

MONEY – SAVING TIPS FOR DISNEY WORLD
Every time you visit Disney World, there’s something new to see. What began in 1971 as the Magic Kingdom now includes the high – tech, movie-mad Disney and Animal Kingdom . Each time the park expands（扩大）, so do your chances to spend money. How can you save ? As a family guide to Disney World, I've been to the park more than 25 times with my kids , and I've developed a few money-saving tips for you.
●Buy the Five-Day All-in-One Hopper Pass. Even if you're visiting for fewer days , it's a deal （The pass costs $ 229 for visitors aged 10 and up , $ 183 for kids aged three to nine and is free for kids under age three）. Without the pass , you'll have to pay separately for Pleasure Island and the water parks . A single trip to Blizzard Beach , for example , would cost a family of four $100.
● Dine out at Lunchtime. The prices at some of the nicer restaurants , especially those in Epcot's World Showcase , are much lower at noontime than at any other time. It's wise to make reservations（预定）before you leave home . Call 407-W-DISNEY .
● Become a Gold Card Member. For $ 65 , you can get a Magic Kingdom Club Gold Card （call 1-800-56-DISNEY）. Cardholders get up to 20% off Disney hotel rooms , plus prices on character breakfast , theme park tickets and goods from Disney stores .
● Don't Pay Extra to See a Character. Character-theme dinner shows are expensive , costing a family of four about $ 140 , and even a character breakfast , where Mickey or Donald Duck joins you for cakes , can set you back $ 50. If your budget (预算) is tight, try to meet the characters inside the theme parks and at free in-park shows . You can watch the Diamond Horseshoe show , for example , in the Magic Kingdom for no additional cost , while the similarly themed Hoop-Dee-Doo Musical Revue needs expensive tickets .
● Wait Until the End of Your Trip to Buy Souvenirs. By then , the kids will really know what they want , and you won't waste money on expensive things .
If you are short of money, the writer suggests you should not .
A．buy things for the kids from Disney stores.
B．buy souvenirs at the beginning of the trip
C．make a trip to Blizzard Beach
D．have your meals out at noontime
Which of the following can be used in place of “set you back”
