(B) I was an extremely verbal child, and growing up with my dad was an experiment in linguistics. My father was a man of few words. Whenever I wanted his permission for a certain activity, I planned a speech that included who would be there, where it would take place, how long it would last, and why it was an incredibly wonderful opportunity for me. He would listen and then say either “Yes or “No. There were never any qualifiers; not “Yes, but be home by dinner or “No, unless you can convince me otherwise. It was yes or no, plain and simple. My father’s phone messages were also lessons in patience and long-suffering to a teenage girl. I was quite active in high school. Not only did I enjoy being involved in many areas, but I came into contact with many a great teenage guy. I can recall one busy day when I had met two great guys and had given each of them my phone number. The first words out of my mouth when I walked through the front door were, “Dad! Did anyone call? His answer, of course, was simply “Yes . I required for a more accurate description of the caller. His answer: “A boy. Since I had met two guys that day, this did not help me. I ran to my room in tears. Knowing my dad’s dislike of language in general and his fondness for briefness, it surprised me to hear that he was going to teach the eleven-year-old boys’ Sunday school class. He did so for not one, but many years. I always wondered if he actually said anything, or if they all just sat in their chairs and stared at each other. I was sure that if people were waiting on my father to break the ice with brilliant conversation or a springboard comment, they’d be badly disappointed. Still, September after September, my father hung his sign outside the Sunday school room: Mr. Ernst-Eleven-Year-Old Boys. 40. In order to get Dad to agree to the author’s outing, the author had to make up the following EXCEPT . A. the friends I shall meet in the activity B. the activity is a chance for anyone C. the place where the activity is to be held D. the time that I shall spend in the activity 41. When the author says “My father’s phone messages were also lessons in patience and long-suffering to a teenage girl. , it means that when she was young . A. her father once gave her a lesson about patience and long-lasting pain B. her father’s brief phone messages angered her a lot but made her patient C. she was trained to be patient and brave because of her father’s brief phone messages D. she suffered and had to be patient because of her father’s brief phone messages 42. What’s the meaning of the underlined phrase “break the ice in Paragraph 3? A. Make the ice crack. B. Stop talking. C. Start a talk. D. Interrupt a talk. 43. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage? A. My father would answer me with “Yes, but be home by dinner sometimes. B. I came into contact with just a few great teenage guys because I was active in high school. C. That my father would teach the eleven-year-old boys’ Weekday school class surprised me. D. I always wanted to know how my father, who talked so little, taught the boys. 查看更多
