阅读短文,按照题目要求用英语回答问题。

In June 2011, my life changed and so did my family’s. I remember the day like it was yesterday. I came downstairs all ready for the family swim. Right before I got into the pool, my mom called me inside. She sat me down and waited for my dad and brothers to come to join us. Then, our parents told us the worst news imaginable-- my dad had been diagnosed with Stage III Colon Cancer(结肠癌).

The news hit hard of course. However, in my head, my dad was a superman. As his daughter, I knew that cancer wasn’t going to beat him. I just went out and swam.

As weeks went on, life didn’t change much within our house. My mom still went to work; my brothers and I still went to school; and my dad still worked while also meeting his doctor. However, I didn’t realized how much this new diagnosis was going to change my life.

As treatment progressed with my dad’s cancer, I couldn’t depend on him for things he usually did. And with my brothers being away at college, I had to take on a lot more responsibility. But that was not the hardest part of this new journey. It was the fear. The fear that I could lose my Dad. The fear that I could get a call saying that he was in bad condition. The fear that I could never talk to him again. Yet with all these fears, there was never a doubt in my mind that my dad would beat this cancer. He was a superman.

The day of my dad’s surgery finally came. It was Father’s Day and I had my soccer game that day. I won my battle on the field and my dad won his in the hospital.

May 2013, my dad was completely cancer free. Though this journey proved to be a few of the hardest years of my life, it also proved to me how wonderful my dad really is.

1.What happened to the author’s family in June 2011? (no more than 10 words)

2.How did the author behave after hearing the news from her mother? (no more than 10 words)

3.What’s the meaning of the underlined word “surgery” in Paragraph 6? (no more than 5 words)

4.When did the author’s father completely recover from cancer? (no more than 5 words)

5.What’s your father like? Please explain. (no more than 25 words)

 

1.Her father developed a serious disease./ Her father was diagnosed with serious Colon Cancer. 2.She lived as usual. 3.Operation. 4.In May 2013. 5.Open. 【解析】 本文为记叙文。作者介绍了自己家里发生的改变。作者的爸爸被诊断患有癌症,虽然这个消息对作者一家是个沉重的打击,但爸爸却像个超人一样,边工作边治病,最后战胜了癌症。 1.细节理解题。第一段“In June 2011... I remember the day like it was yesterday.... -- my dad had been diagnosed with Stage III Colon Cancer.” 2011年6月我记忆犹新——我父亲被诊断出患有第三期结肠癌。由此可知,她的父亲被诊断出患有第三期结肠癌,时间是2011年。故本题的答案为Her father developed a serious disease./ Her father was diagnosed with serious Colon Cancer。 2.推理判断题。根据第二段“The news hit hard of course. However, in my head, my dad was a superman. As his daughter, I knew that cancer wasn’t going to beat him. I just went out and swam.”和第三段“As weeks went on, life didn’t change much within our house. My mom still went to work; my brothers and I still went to school” 可知,当然,这条消息对我们打击很大。然而,在我的脑海里,我的父亲是一个超人。作为他的女儿,我知道癌症不会打败他。几个星期过去了,我们家里的生活并没有多大变化。我妈妈仍然去上班;我和我的兄弟们还在上学。由此可知,作者认为父亲是个不会被打败的超人。作者的生活没有多大变化,和平常一样。故答案为She lived as usual。 3.猜测词意题。根据第二段“my dad still worked while also meeting his doctor”爸爸边工作边看病;以及第 五段划线词所在句子The day of my dad’s surgery finally came.后的“It was Father’s Day and I had my soccer game that day. I won my battle on the field and my dad won his in the hospital.”那天是父亲节,我有一场足球赛。我在战场上赢了,我爸爸在医院里赢了。以及最后一段的第一句“May 2013, my dad was completely cancer free” 2013年5月,我父亲完全没有了癌症(即手术让爸爸从癌症中康复)。由此可推断出,作者的爸爸手术(surgery)的时间到了。故第六段划线词“surgery”的意思为Operation。 4.细节理解题。根据最后一段“May 2013, my dad was completely cancer free.”可知,2013年5月,我父亲完全没有了癌症。即从癌症中完全康复。故本题的答案为In May 2013. 5.推理判断题。根据自己对父亲的观察以及平时的了解。先对自己作一个总的概括,再举例说明即可。My father is a caring engineer, ready to help others. No matter which neighbor's household appliance is broken, he is willing to help deal with it for free。

    In an attempt to win back old customers, restaurants and companies often introduce new menu items or new flavors. Most of these are successful with customers because they have always been researched and tested by companies before they meet the public. However, there are still some that are so unpopular with customers and they fail so badly as a product that they become infamous.

One of the most well-known marketing failures happened in 1985 with New Coke, a soft drink created to replace the original Coca-Cola flavor. The Coca-Cola Company tested several new flavors and found that people always preferred a sweeter soda. As a result, the CEO decided that the sweeter soda would replace the original Coca-Cola drink.

Many customers, however, soon started to express their dissatisfaction with the new drink. The Coca-Cola Company received over 1,500 angry telephone calls every day. The Coca-Cola Company actually employed special experts to talk to customers because they were so angry and sad about the change. Some Americans were buying old Coca-Cola drinks from overseas where the new drink had not yet been introduced. And in some parts of America people were so angry that they emptied bottles of New Coke into the street.

So many people were unhappy with Coca-Cola’s new drink that the company decided only three months later to return to the old Coca-Cola drink. On July 10,1985, the Coca-Cola Company said that it would bring back the old Coke and rename the drink “Coca-Cola Classic” or “Coke Classic”. Thousands of customers phoned the company to express their support.

Even today, business experts are interested in this case. Even though the Coca-Cola Company had carefully tested and experimented with New Coke before introducing it to customers, the New drink was still very unpopular. So, what did Coca-Cola do wrong? It seems the company simply did not understand customers’ deep historical and emotional attachment to the drink.

1.Why do companies usually introduce new menu items?

A.To attract past customers.

B.To attract new customers.

C.To attract elderly customers.

D.To attract customers with special needs.

2.What is the difference between New Coke and the original one?

A.New Coke is sweeter.

B.New Coke is more acidic.

C.New Coke’s color is lighter.

D.New Coke’s bottle is bigger.

3.What is Paragraph 3 mainly about?

A.Why New Coke failed in America.

B.The harm New Coke did to people’ s health.

C.How customers acted in answer to the introduction of New Coke.

D.The comparison between sales of New Coke and the original one.

4.When was New Coke put on the market?

A.In May 1985. B.In April 1985.

C.In June 1985. D.In July 1985.

5.What is most likely to be discussed in the paragraph that follows?

A.The reasons why New Coke succeeded overseas.
