【小题1】. B.名词辨析。A. 生物学家；B. 律师；C. 经理；D. 园艺师。从下文“my dad persuaded me to go into law”可知作者的父母亲从事的是法律工作，应该是一个律师，答案选B。
【小题2】. D.形容词辨析。A.严格的；B. 诚实的；C. 博学的；D. 特别的。根据上下文可知父亲虽是一个为生计而奋斗的律师，但他对孩子们从不批评，而是赞扬，通情达理并且允许作者弃学办杂志，所以作者说父亲教育孩子的方式却很特别，选D，其他选项不符合语境。
【小题3】 C.名词辨析。A.力量；B. 勇气；C.表扬；D. 温暖。前一句说他从不批评我们，后一句用but进行转折，显然要选的词应该与criticize词义相反，故选C。
【小题4】. B.动词辨析。A. 思考，认为；B. 记得；C想象；D. 猜想。从情理可知对于小时候说过的话作者只是记得，而不是认为的，也不是想像或猜想。故答案选B。
【小题5】.A .形容词辨析。A. 不友好的； B. 不必要的；C.不重要的； D. 不寻常的。根据下文you say something unpleasant about somebody else判断作者说了令人不愉快的话，由此判断要选的词与unpleasant同义， unkind“使人不愉快的，苛刻的”，故答案选A。

【小题7】C 介词辨析。A在……之上；B. 在；C.在……内； D. 关于。从语境判断父亲教育作者要去发现或者寻找别人身上最好的东西，on强调物体的表面，而in则侧重内在，故答案选C
【小题8】. B.短语辨析。A.以防万一； B. 作为回报；C.碰巧；D. 轮流，依次。根据上下文可知父亲认为如果去发现别人身上最好的东西，那么反过来别人的品质也会影响到自己，答案选B。句意：如果你从别人身上寻找最好的东西，那么同样你也会得到最好的东西。
【小题9】D .动词辨析。A. 修订；B.设置；C. 复习；D. 遵循。从语境判断作者听从了父亲的建议，follow the principle“遵循这一原则”，故答案选D。

【小题16】 A词语辨析。.A但是；B.而不是；C. 因为；D. 因此。上句提到自己曾经想当biologist，而根据文章内容可知父亲没有实现自己的梦想，所以前后句之间应为转折关系，故选A。
【小题17】. C.名词辨析。A. 承诺； B. 任务； C. 梦想；D. 信念。父亲本来想当一个生物学家，但是结果在家长的劝说下成了一名律师，由此可知他没有去追随自己的梦想，故答案选C。
