My father was left fatherless at the age of 12, and pretty much on his own then.

Because of that, he was never the loving type. He didn’t have time to offer a pat on the back or a loving hug（拥抱）. He was built for work, and work he did—7 days a week—expecting my brothers and me to do the same.

Growing up, I spent much of my free time laboring with him on jobs around the house. To him, working alongside someone was the best way to show you cared. The way you felt about a person was clear from the fact you spent time with the person; you didn’t need to express your feelings. As far as I know, he never did. Except once.

I was 22, graduated from college, and leaving home for the last time. He and I had loaded my things into the car and were talking in the garage. Without warning, he wrapped me in his huge arms and hugged me tight.“You were always my favorite,”he said.“I love you, and I’m going to miss you.”

With that, he shooed（用“嘘”声驱赶）me into the car and then left for the house, tears in his eyes.

I was floored by his response—and then felt proud, pleased and grateful. Yet some small part of me also wondered why it had taken him so long to express his love.

I can accept now that it wasn’t possible for him to be warm—his feelings were buried too deeply under the layers of a tough life. Thanks to my father’s once-in-a-lifetime hug, I’ve come to realize something he never could. A hug is more than simple physical touch. It is a lightning-like connection between two people. A link that expresses love, encouragement, comfort-all the emotions that can strengthen a relationship, even turn a life around.

1.According to the author, his father didn’t show his feelings easily because of all the following reasons EXCEPT _____.

A.he didn’t think it important to show his love

B.he always worked around the house and paid no attention to his kids

C.he himself grew up without love from his own father

D.he thought the best way to show feelings was to spend time together

2.The word“floored”in the passage can be best replaced by _____.

A.frightened B.flooded

C.hit D.confused

3.It can be inferred from the passage that the author will probably _____.

A.hide his feelings for his kids as deeply as his father did

B.offer physical touch like hugs to his own kids quite often

C.not spend time working around the house with his own kids

D.not understand his father’s love for him for the rest of his life

4.The purpose of the writing is to _____.

A.mention the importance of a hug in our life

B.tell us an unhappy childhood without father’s care

C.share a touching story of the author and his father

D.show the difficult relationship between child and parents

阅读下面短文，撑握其大意，然后从36~55各题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D），选出最佳选项。

I had my first job at the age of thirteen, when a friend of my mother’s who owned a bookshop _36me for six hours a week to help her in the shop. I was very 37to earn my own pocket money and my parents 38interfered(干涉) with how I spent it, even when I was spending it 39. They believed that by earning money, spending it, and learning from the 40, I would become more mature(成熟) and 41 about how to handle work, relationships with others, and money.

Like many 42parents, my parents also let me and my brothers do things over which they43  a great deal. When I was sixteen, for example, after I finished high school and before I entered university, I wanted to spend the summer months traveling around   44. My mother was against the idea of my traveling alone at such a young age, but my father felt that it would be a great 45for me. In the end, my father won the 46on the condition that I limited my traveling to France, my mother’s home, where I had many uncles, aunts and cousins 47through the country who could 48shelter and help if I need them.

Three years later, my younger brother decide to 49 a year off after his first year in university and travel through the United States and the Caribbean. Again my mother was very worried and not   50to see my brother leave school, but my father encouraged him and my brother had a(n) 51year working his way on trains and ships to 52passage to different ports and cities, and discovering many fascinating places and people.

These kinds of experiences are probably rare(稀少的) for children in many countries but in the US they are fairly 53. Most parents start 54their children at a young age to do small things by themselves. By the time they have finished high school, many American kids have already had part-time jobs, traveled around the US or other countries on their own, have 55the university they plan to attend and maybe even decided on their future career, and so on.
