Dear Daughter,
As we drove off from Columbia, I wanted to write to tell you all that is on my mind. First, I want to tell you how proud we are. Getting into Columbia is a real testament (证明) of what a great well-rounded student you are. You should be as proud of yourself as we are.
Your college years will be the most important of your life. It is in college that you will discover what learning is about. This will be the period when you go from teacher taught to master inspired, after which you must become a self-learner. So do take each subject seriously, and even if what you learn is of no practical use in real life, the learning skills you get will be something you will value forever.
Follow your passion in college. Take courses you think you will enjoy, don"t be bothered by what others think or say, but make up your own mind. Most importantly, make true friends and be happy. Don"t worry about their hobbies, grades, looks, or even personalities.
Start planning early what you"d like to do. Where would you like to live? What would you like to learn? I think your plan to study fashion is good, and you should decide where you want to be, and get onto the right courses. I will always be there for you, but the time has come for you to be in the driver"s seat-this is your life, and you need to be in control. Being in control feels great. Try it, and you"ll love it!
So please treasure your college years - make the best use of your free time, become an independent thinker in control of your destiny, and learn through your successes and challenges.
May your years at Columbia be the happiest of your life, and may you grow into just what you dream to be.
Love
Dad & Mom

解析

试题分析:本文是一位父亲写给女儿的信,从信的内容我可以看出父亲对女儿的深深的爱和关心。
小题1:A 推理题。本文是一位父亲写给女儿的信,从信的内容我可以看出父亲对女儿的深深的爱和关心。故A正确。
小题2:B 推理题。根据本句So please treasure your college years - make the best use of your free time, become an independent thinker in control of your destiny,说明是父亲下文女儿能够珍惜大学生活,成为一个独立的思考者并能够控制住自己的生活。故B正确。不可能的体重,职位和时间。
小题3:C 细节题。根据第三段倒数第3,4行Take courses you think you will enjoy, don"t be bothered by what others think or say说明父亲建议女儿不要过于在乎别人的看法,故C正确。
小题4:D 主旨大意题。根据文章倒数第二段可知本文中父亲最后对女儿的希望就是希望女儿那个充分利用大学生活。故D正确。
点评:本文中父亲对女儿的关爱一览无余。考查推理题为主,推理判定题要在阅读理解整体语篇的基础上,把握文章的真正内涵。①要吃透文章的字面意思,从字里行间捕捉有用的提示和线索,这是推理的前提和基础;②要对文字的表面信息进行挖掘加工,由表入里,由浅入深,从具体到抽象,从非凡到一般,通过分析、综合、判定等,进行深层处理,符合逻辑地推理。不能就是论事,断章取义,以偏概全。③要忠实于原文,以文章提供的事实和线索为依据。立足已知,推断未知。立足现在,猜测未来。不能主观臆想,凭空想象,随意揣测,更不能以自己的观点代替作者的观点;④要把握句、段之间的逻辑关系,了解语篇的结构。要体会文章的基调,揣摸作者的态度,摸准逻辑发展的方向,悟出作者的弦外之音。
举一反三
How many people have I met who have told me about the book that they have been planning to write but have never yet found the time? Far too many .This is Life, all right, but we do treat it like a rehearsal(排演)and, unhappily, we do miss so many of its best moments .
We take jobs to stay alive and provide homes for our families, always making ourselves believe that this style of life is merely a temporary state of affairs along the road to what we really want to do. Then, at 60 or 65, we are suddenly presented with a clock and several grandchildren and we look back and realize that all those years waiting for Real Life to come along were in fact real life .
In America they have a saying much laughed at by the English:“Have a nice day!” They speak slowly and seriously in their shops, hotels and sandwich bars. I think it is a wonderful phrase, reminding us to enjoy the moment: to value this very day .How often do we say to ourselves, "I"ll take up horse-riding(or golf, or sailing)as soon as I get a higher position," only to do none of those things when I do get the higher position .
When I first became a reporter, I knew a man who gave up a very well paid respectable job at the Daily Telegraph to go and edit a small weekly newspaper. At the time I was astonished by what appeared to me to be his completely abnormal(反常的)mental state. How could anyone turn his back on Fleet Street in central London for a small local area?I wanted to know .
Now I am a little older and possibly wiser, I see the sense in it. In Fleet Street the man was under continual pressure .He lived in an unattractive London suburb and he spent much of his life sitting on Southern Region trains .
小题1:The first paragraph of the passage tells us that________.         
A.we always try to find some time to write a book
B.we always make plans but seldom fulfill them
C.we always enjoy many of life"s best moments
D.we always do what we really want to do
小题2:The man (in paragraph 6)left his first job partly because he was_________.
A.in an abnormal stateB.under too much pressure
C.not well paidD.not respected
小题3:What is probably the best title for the passage?
A.Provide Homes For Our FamilyB.Take Up Horse-riding
C.Value This Very DayD.Stay Alive

It was June 15, and in two days I would be turning thirty. I was not sure about entering a new decade of my life and feared that my best years were now behind me.
My daily routine included going to the gym for a workout( 锻炼) before going to work. Every morning I would see my friend Nicholas at the gym. He was seventy­ nine years old and in terrific shape. As I greeted Nicholas on that particular day, he noticed I wasn"t full of my usual vitality(活力)and asked if there was anything wrong. I told him I was feeling anxious about turning thirty. I wondered how I would look back on( 回顾)my life once I reached Nicholas"s age, so I asked him, “What was the best time of your life?”
Without hesitation, Nicholas replied, “Well, Joe, this is my philosophical(哲理的)answer to your philosophical question:
When I was a child in Austria and everything was taken care of for me and I was nurtured by my parents, that was the best time of my life.
When I was going to school and learning the things I know today, that was the best time of my life.
When I got my first job and had responsibilities and got paid for my efforts, that was the best time of my life.
When I met my wife and fell in love, that was the best time of my life.
The Second World War came, and my wife and I had to flee Austria to save our lives. When we were together and safe on a ship bound for(开往)North America, that was the best time of my life.
When we came to Canada and started a family, that was the best time of my life.
When I was a young father, watching my children grow up, that was the best time of my life.”
“And now, Joe, I am seventy­ nine years old. I have my health, I feel good and I am in love with my wife just as I was when we first met. This is the best time of my life.”
