Question

My dad was a fisherman. He worked hard and stayed out until he caught enough    36   to feed the family nearly every day. When the weather was bad he would    37   me to school. An old truck was used in his fishing business. When we got to the school, he would give me a big   38   on the face and tell me to be a good    39  . It was so embarrassing for me. I was 12 years old, and my dad would still kiss me goodbye!

I remember the day when I decided I was too    40   for a goodbye kiss. When we got to the school and came to a stop, he had his usual big smile. He started to lean (傾斜) toward me, but I put my hand up and   41  , “No, Dad.” It was the first time I had ever talked to him that way. He had a surprised look on his face for a long time, and his    42  started to be wet. He turned and looked out of the windshield (擋風玻璃). “You’re   43  ,” he said.“You are a big boy—a man. I won’t kiss you any more.”

It wasn’t long after that when my dad went out to   44   and never came back. It was a day when most of the fishermen stayed at home except Dad. He had a big family to feed

How I wish I had been a man then. If I had been a man, I would    45   have told my dad I was too old for a goodbye kiss.

【主旨大意】本篇短文講述了漁夫爸爸每天辛苦捕魚來維持一家的生計，天氣糟糕時，他會開車送我上學。臨別時，他經常會吻我的臉，但我感覺不好意思。后來我拒絕了，他理解了，但在我拒絕他后的不久，爸爸卻永遠地消失在大海里。

解析：

36. D 由上文，我的爸爸是個漁夫，可推測是抓到更多的魚。故選D。

37. C 由下文可知，一輛用來做魚生意的舊卡車。 可知是開車送我。故選C。

38. A由下文可知。我12歲了，爸爸依然要用吻我的臉說再見。故選A。

39.B由上下文可知。我上學，我12歲了，爸爸讓我做一個好孩子，而不是別的。故選B。

40. A 根據句意：我記得我下定決心的那天，年齡大不能用吻臉來分別了。故選A。

41. B 由句意：我把手舉起來說，只是一般的說話，A：spoke 后通常接語言English等，比較正式，C：重復說，只是第一次說，顯然不對，D：回答的意思，爸爸還沒說。故選B。

42. C 由句意：他的雙眼開始濕潤了，由孩子的話，雖然有些失落，但父親心理更多的是欣慰與自豪感。其它的選項顯然不符。故選C。

43. D由下文可知，你是一個男子漢，以后我不會再吻你的臉了。可知父母認可了孩子的做法，“你做得對！”故選D。

44. B由下文可知，全村大多數漁夫都呆在家，除了父親。可知前面是出海打魚了。故選B。

45. C由句意：要是我早長大多好，就從來不會與父親說長大了不能吻臉了。故選C。
