On Sundays, my father always wore that gray apron (围裙) after breakfast. For the next hour, Dad did the dishes, singing songs like I Had a Hat When I Came in.
I thought it was strange for a man to wear an apron.
It was the last Sunday in August. My father seemed happy as we walked home from the supermarket together. “Tommy,” he said, “there comes a time in every boy’s life when he must take on responsibilities (责任). From today, I want you to wash the dishes on Sunday morning, so your mother and I can read the newspaper.”
“Wash the dishes?”
“Anything wrong with doing the dishes, son?”
I started to say something about a man’s job or a woman’s work, but I knew quickly that my protests (抗议) would be of no use.
I didn’t taste a bit of breakfast that morning. Dad didn’t notice me at all. Suddenly, everything became quiet. My sister began to clean the table. And then my father said to my mother, “Let’s go and read the newspapers.”
So this was what my life had come to. I could learn Latin well, play baseball well... I could do anything, but I could never do those dishes.
My father came back into the kitchen later, and in his right hand was the old apron. “I want you to have this, Tommy. It’ll keep your clothes from getting wet.” Before I could say a word, he had put it on me. “Thanks, son.”
I looked down at the apron. I could see my dad going out of the kitchen. Soon I was singing I Had a Hat When I Came in. And I knew the kind of man I wanted to be.

【导语】本文讲述了忙于工作的大卫很少陪伴家人。父亲节这天,家人们精心为他策划了一场湖边惊喜旅行,一张全家福让他深受触动。从那以后,大卫开始抽出更多时间陪伴家人,也领悟到身为父亲,不仅要扛起养家的责任,更要用心参与家人的日常生活。
11.句意:但他深爱着他的家人,并尽力通过做一个有爱心的父亲来弥补他的缺席。
根据“for his absence”可知,此处指弥补因工作造成的缺席,make up for...表示“弥补……” ,文中for已在空后。
12.句意:……大卫的妻子和孩子们想为他做点特别的事。
根据下文“plan a surprise weekend getaway”可知,策划一场惊喜的周末短途旅行是特别的事,special“特别的”,符合语境。
13.句意:他们知道他工作十分辛苦,几乎从不休息,于是决定策划一场惊喜的周末短途旅行,去附近的湖边游玩。
根据“worked hard”可知,工作努力意味着几乎不休息,take breaks“休息”。
14.句意:他们收拾好了这次旅行需要的所有东西,其中包括大卫最喜爱的零食和游戏。
根据“including David’s favorite snacks and games”可知,他们准备得很充分,打包了一切所需物品,everything“一切物品”,符合语境;anything“任何事物”;nothing“没有什么”;something“某些事物”,不符合语境。
15.句意:当他们开车前往湖边时,大卫不知道他的家人为他计划了什么。
“David didn’t know...his family planned for him”表明,此处引导宾语从句,且在从句中作planned的宾语,指计划的内容,应用what。其他选项不能作宾语。
16.句意:当他们到达湖边时,看见了一座四周绿树环绕的温馨小木屋。
根据空后“...to the lake”可知,此处指到达湖边,需用got,构成短语get to...,表示“到达……”;arrived后接at或in,reached后不接介词。
17.句意:大卫非常惊讶!
根据前文“surprise weekend getaway”以及大卫不知情可知,他看到小屋时应是惊讶的,surprised“惊讶的”,符合语境。
18.句意:他们整个周末一起钓鱼、游泳,尽情欢乐。
主语是“They”,是人,表示度过时间应用spent,sb. spend time doing sth.表示“某人花费时间做某事”,符合;cost主语通常为物;paid侧重花费金钱;took常用于花费时间,不符合语法规则。
19.句意:他们整个周末一起钓鱼、游泳,尽情欢乐。
根据“fishing, swimming”可知,这些都是娱乐活动,have fun意为“玩得开心”。其他选项不符合语境。
20.句意:旅行的最后一天,他们送给了他一份小小的礼物 —— 一张全家人在湖边的合影。
根据“gave him a small”及下文“a photo of them”可知,照片就是送给大卫的礼物,gift“礼物”,符合语境。
21.句意:大卫非常感动。
收到家人精心准备的礼物和陪伴,大卫情感上应是感动的,touched“感动的”,符合情感色彩。
22.句意:他意识到家人对他最重要。
根据上下文逻辑,此处指大卫经过此事后心理上的领悟,意识到陪伴家人很重要,realized“意识到”,符合语境。
23.句意:他因为过度工作错失了很多东西。
根据“by working too much”可知,工作太多导致错过了家庭时光,miss out“失去” ,符合语境。
24.句意:他提早下班,和家人一起吃晚餐,还安排了更多全家出游的活动。
“spend more time with his family”表明,为了多陪伴家人,下班时间应更早,earlier“更早地”,符合语境。
25.句意:他明白了,做一位称职的父亲,不仅仅是在经济上供养家人,还要陪伴在家人身边,参与他们的生活。
“being a good dad... not just providing... but also...”表明,一个好爸爸不只是经济上供养家庭,还要亲身在场参与家人的生活,be present表示“在场,出席”,符合语境。

On Sundays, my father always wore that gray apron (围裙) after breakfast. For the next hour, Dad did the dishes, singing songs like I Had a Hat When I Came in.
I thought it was strange for a man to wear an apron.
It was the last Sunday in August. My father seemed happy as we walked home from the supermarket together. “Tommy,” he said, “there comes a time in every boy’s life when he must take on responsibilities (责任). From today, I want you to wash the dishes on Sunday morning, so your mother and I can read the newspaper.”
“Wash the dishes?”
“Anything wrong with doing the dishes, son?”
I started to say something about a man’s job or a woman’s work, but I knew quickly that my protests (抗议) would be of no use.
I didn’t taste a bit of breakfast that morning. Dad didn’t notice me at all. Suddenly, everything became quiet. My sister began to clean the table. And then my father said to my mother, “Let’s go and read the newspapers.”
So this was what my life had come to. I could learn Latin well, play baseball well... I could do anything, but I could never do those dishes.
My father came back into the kitchen later, and in his right hand was the old apron. “I want you to have this, Tommy. It’ll keep your clothes from getting wet.” Before I could say a word, he had put it on me. “Thanks, son.”
I looked down at the apron. I could see my dad going out of the kitchen. Soon I was singing I Had a Hat When I Came in. And I knew the kind of man I wanted to be.

A.Read the newspaper. B.Wash the dishes and sing.
C.Go to the supermarket. D.Play baseball.
32.Why was Tommy unwilling (不愿意) to wash the dishes at first?
A.Because he thought it was a women’s job. B.Because he was not good at it.
C.Because he had to go out to play basketball. D.Because he wanted to read the newspaper.
33.Why did Tommy’s father come back to the kitchen?
A.To teach Tommy how to wash the dishes. B.To talk with Tommy about his feelings.
C.To give Tommy the apron to wear. D.To check (检查) Tommy’s work.

Now some women are spending a weekend at Mother’s Camp. There are no husbands or children. Why would a woman want to take a vacation without her family? Some women say they need time to be alone.
At Mother’s Camp a woman has room to herself. She can sleep, read or watch TV, and no one will bother (打扰) her. No children will ask, “Mum, what’s for dinner?” No husband will say, “Oh, dear, I can’t find any clean socks.” In fact, almost 50% of women in the United States work outside the homes. Many of them work full-time (全职) and then come home to do a second job-taking care of their homes and families. These working women say one of their biggest problems is housework.
In the United States,working women do about 75% of the housework. Many of their husbands say they want to help. But then they break the plate or they can’t find the salt. They ask so many questions that their wives (妻子) decide to do the job themselves.
Some women go to Mother’s Camp just to get a break from housework. For two days they don’t cook, they don’t clean, they don’t look after their children or husbands. What do they do? They enjoy warm, sunny weather, walking, swimming or boating in a clean blue lake, and sing songs around the campfire (营火). They relax away from home. They have a really wonderful vacation at Mother’s Camp.
36.How long can women enjoy their vacation at Mother’s Camp?
A.One month. B.A week. C.72 hours. D.Two days.
37.What do women probably do at Mother’s Camp?
A.They cook dinner. B.They boat in a clear blue lake.
C.They do some cleaning. D.They look after their children.
38.What does the underlined word “they” in Paragraph 3 refer to?
A.Husbands. B.Children. C.Working women. D.Grandparents.
39.What can we know about women in the United States from this passage?
A.They don’t need to do any housework.
B.They want to get a break from housework.
C.They dislike to stay at home with their families.
D.They do as much housework as their husbands.
40.What is the best title for the passage?
A.Busy Working Mothers B.Mothers in the US
C.Mothers Relax Away from Home D.Housework-Whose Job?
【答案】36.D 37.B 38.A 39.B 40.C
【导语】本文介绍美国的“妈妈营地”,讲述职场女性既要上班又要承担绝大部分家务,身心疲惫,因此会前往营地短暂独处,摆脱家务与家人的琐事,通过休闲活动放松自己,体现当代女性渴望拥有专属休息空间的需求。
36.根据第一段第一句“Now some women are spending a weekend at Mother’s Camp.”以及第四段第三句“ For two days they don’t cook, they don’t clean, they don’t look after their children or husbands.”可知,女性在妈妈营地度过的假期是一个周末,即两天时间。
37.根据第四段内容“They enjoy warm, sunny weather, walking, swimming or boating in a clean blue lake, and sing songs around the campfire (营火).”可知,她们在营地会划船。
38.根据第三段“Many of their husbands say they want to help. But then they break the plate or they can’t find the salt. They ask so many questions that their wives (妻子) decide to do the job themselves.”可知,这里的“They”指代的是前文提到的想要帮忙做家务但总是出错的“丈夫们”。
39.根据第四段第一句“Some women go to Mother’s Camp just to get a break from housework.”可知,美国女性去营地是为了从家务中获得休息。
40.通读全文可知,文章主要介绍了美国的职场母亲通过参加“妈妈营地”远离家庭和家务,从而得到放松和休息的故事。C项“Mothers Relax Away from Home”最能概括文章主旨。
