只有工作,没有家人,结果妻子与他离婚。这让作者意识到生活中有很多自己不能做的事,该放手时就放手,这样生活才能有乐趣。作者欣慰地看到自己的儿子在玩笔的玩耍中已经学会了这一点。1.A.confident B.consistentC.conscious D.convinced【解析】选D。前后照应题。由于小时候,父母和老师训练“我”做每件事时都要执着。所以“我”始终信任(Iwasconvinced)执着是成功的唯一途径。2.A.event B.incident C.accident D.affair【解析】选B。词义辨析题。event多指重要、有意义的大大事;incident指平常小事;accident指意外事故;affair泛指大事,事务。此处语境指儿子玩记号笔,应为平常小事。3.A.pointing B.shoutingC.screaming D.laughing【解析】选A。前后照应题。一天我两岁的儿子指着(pointat)一堆竖着的彩色记号笔,兴奋地欢呼着。4.A.insisting B.requiringC.intending D.urging【解析】选C。前后照应题。后来,儿子又拿了一些圆珠笔,打算做同样的事,即把圆珠笔也竖起来。intendtodosth.打算做某事。5.A.flat B.silent C.still D.quiet【解析】选A。背景学问题。依据Hardthoughhetried(尽管他费了很大的劲试着将圆珠笔竖起来)可知结果没有成功,圆珠笔照旧没有竖起来。由于这些圆珠笔要么是尖头,要么是圆头。lieflat意思是“平躺着”。6.A.deliberately B.casuallyC.unintentionally D.enthusiastically【解析】选B。前后照应题。看到这些圆珠笔要么是尖头要么是圆头,我不加考虑地(casually)说:“妈妈帮不了你。”但儿子不听,连续坚持做下去。7.A.interested B.busy C.devoted D.buried【解析】选D。前后照应题。beburiedinhiswork认真致志地忙于他的工作。这由后文的“他很少和任何人讲话”可知。8.A.therefore B.however C.otherwise D.though【解析】选A。规律推理题。由于他总是忙于自己的工作,因此(therefore)对他来说没有周末或假日这样的概念。9.A.high B.highly C.well D.much【解析】选B。固定搭配题。由于他一心扑在工作上,所以老板对他高度赞扬。10.A.promised B.demandedC.inspired D.appealed【解析】选C。规律推理题。老板鼓舞我们把他当成模范榜样看待。11.A.Atrandom B.AttimesC.Atmost
