Sometimes I really doubt whether there is love between my parents. Every day they are very busy trying to 36in order to pay the high tuition for my brother and me. They don’t act in the 37ways that I read in books or I see on TV. In their opinion, “I love you” is too 38for them to say. Sending flowers to each other on Valentine’s Day is even more out of 39.
One day, my mother was sewing a quilt. I sat down beside her. “Mom, I have a question to ask you. Is there 40between you and Dad?” I asked her in a very low voice. She didn’t answer immediately. She 41her head and continued to sew the quilt.
I was very worried because I thought I had42her. I was 43and I didn’t know what I should do. But at last I heard my mother say the following words:
“Susan,” she said thoughtfully, “Look at this thread.Sometimes it 44, but most of it disappears in the quilt. The thread really makes the quilt 45. If life is a quilt, then love should be a thread.It can hardly be seen 46, but it’s really there. Love is 47.”
I listened carefully but I 48her until the next spring. At that time, my father suddenly 49seriously. My mother had to stay with him in the hospital for a month. When they returned from the hospital, they both looked 50 . It seemed both of them had had a serious illness. After they were back, every day in the morning and dusk, my mother helped my father 51on the country road.
“Dad, how are you feeling now?” I asked him one day.
“Susan, don’t 52me.” he said gently. “To tell you the truth, I just like walking with your mom.” 53his eyes, I know he loves my mother deeply.
Once I thought love meant flowers, gifts and 54. But from this experience, I understand that love is just 55in the quilt of our life. Love is inside, making life strong and warm.

答案:
(答案→)C
解析:文章通过一个温情的故事把爱比喻成缝被子的线,时隐时现,并不是一直表现在外。
【小题1】上下文串联。根据下文给我们付学费可知父母忙着挣钱。
【小题2】形容词辨析。根据下文提及书中所写或者电视中所看到的浪漫的方式。
【小题3】上下文串联。根据前文可知父母忙着挣钱,也很少相互表达爱意,说我爱你是一种奢侈。
【小题4】固定词组。Put of the question不可能。Out of question没问题。Out of reach够不着;out of control失去控制。句意:在情人节送花更是不可能。
【小题5】上下文联系。根据第一段第一行I really doubt whether there is love between my parents,可知我怀疑父母之间是否有爱。
【小题6】动词辨析。根据下文的继续缝被子。说明妈妈是低下头,使用bow低下;
【小题7】动词辨析。Hurt伤害(心灵上,身体上)injure使…受伤(身体上);wound指战场上受到的枪伤刀伤。harm伤害;句意是在我的话是否伤害到妈妈的感情,应该是心灵上行的伤害。
【小题8】介词短语辨析。A非常惊讶;B尴尬;C非常压抑;D很难过。根据后面我不知道该做什么,说明当时我非常尴尬。
【小题9】上下文串联。根据下文的disappear可知这里是appear.缝被子的线时隐时现。
【小题10】形容词辨析。A温暖柔弱;B热且坚硬;C又薄又冷;D坚固耐用。由句意可知,缝被子的线让被子坚固耐用。
【小题11】词义辨析。A某时某地;B任何时候任何地点;C或多或少;D处处;根据句意:爱不是任何时候任何地点都能被看见的。可知选B
【小题12】上下文串联。根据前一句it’s really there。可知爱是在内心的,不需要时时刻刻表现出来。
【小题13】not…until结构以及动词辨析。根据句意可知:知道第二年春天我才明白妈妈的意思。
【小题14】词组辨析。A生病;B遭遇,被卡住;由后文可知,爸爸生病了。
【小题15】语义辨析。根据全文可知爸爸生病了,妈妈要照顾他,他们都很累,以及后文他们似乎都生病了。所以这里选B。
【小题16】上下文串联。由后文可知爸爸妈妈经常在乡村小路上散步。
【小题17】动词短语辨析。A考虑;B交谈;C担心;D嘲笑;爸爸安慰我,应该让我不要担心他。
【小题18】动词辨析。read读懂…;这里是指读懂爸爸的眼神。
【小题19】上下文串联。这里应该填一个与flowers, gifts相似的词。选项里面应该只有C。
【小题20】上下文联系。由上文可知文章中把爱比喻成缝被子的线。
