9、要那么著急，慢一點會讓我們更容易感受到愛。答案及剖析：1. C 前一句說“我們沒有時間做這件事”，后句表示從我嘴里對孩子說出來的最常見的兩個 字是快點”，由此可知上下文是因果關(guān)系，所以使用 therefore 。2. B 根據(jù)第三段敘述的內(nèi)容可知女兒吃冰激凌這件事情讓我意識到生活實際上不需要那么著急，要學(xué)會把生活的節(jié)奏減慢，過慢節(jié)奏的生活。所以B 項 slow down 符合上下文。3.D 我三年前做出了要放慢生活節(jié)奏的允諾，我開始我的旅行去理解生活中真正重要的事情。本句中 what 3 in life作為動詞 grasp 的賓語。只有 D 項與上下文語義一致。4.A 我的女兒就是那個提醒我一

10、直要這樣做的人。與后一句中的 正確。5.C 根據(jù)下句 After buying a cool treat for my daughter(我們一起去了超市。A、B、D 三個地方是買不到冰激凌的。故C 正確。6.D 我給女兒買了冰激凌，她很開心地看著手里拿的冰激凌。三項與語境不符。7.B 因為之前我一直要求快節(jié)奏的生活，總是在催促孩子快點快點。女兒想慢慢吃冰激凌 但是又怕我催她，所以才會露出（turned up）擔(dān)憂的表情。8. A 聽到女兒這樣說，我差點哭了起來。女兒連吃冰激凌都擔(dān)心被我催促，我很難受。此處與下文 I thought sadly 相呼應(yīng)，所以 A 正確。9. C 根據(jù)文章第一段

11、可知我一直都在催促孩子要快點，所以孩子已經(jīng)習(xí)慣了快節(jié)奏的生活，18.A.realizedC.expected19.A.in contrastC.i n chargeB.imagi nedD.rememberedB.in returnD.i n con trolreminded 相呼應(yīng)。故 A我給女兒買了冰激凌）可知,A（寬慰）、B（悲傷）、C（前進）4多年以來快節(jié)奏生活的痛苦還沒有徹底消失。10. B 女兒抬頭看著我，等著想知道她是否可以慢慢吃冰激凌。本句中 if 意為“是否”，引導(dǎo)賓語從句。其余三項與上文的語義不符。11.C 在那時我有了一個選擇 (choice), 我要讓孩子的節(jié)奏徹底慢下

12、來。 此處與下文 I chose5to live in today 相呼應(yīng)。12.A think about 考慮 ;complain about 抱怨 ;worry about 擔(dān)憂 ;talk about 談?wù)?。我?開始思考我有多少次催促孩子快點。所以 A 正確。13.A 根據(jù)下文可知我告訴女兒慢慢吃 ,不要著急 ; 而之前她一直催促女兒。 由此可知這次她 做事的方法和以前不一樣了。14.C 從說話的內(nèi)容及下文Her whole face instantly brightened.可以看出 , 我應(yīng)該是很溫和地對女兒說這樣的話。15.B 女兒之前很擔(dān)心我催促她快點 , 但是我讓她慢慢吃。

B in contrast 作為對比 ;in return 作為回報 ;in charge 負責(zé) ;in control 控制。我給女兒一點時間，她回報給我的是一勺省下來的冰激凌。故B 正確。20. D 在生活中當(dāng)我們不再催促的時候 ,食物嘗吃來會更甜蜜 ,人們也更容易得到
