Question

Do you often communicate with your parents? Some parents are always comparing their 41 with themselves when they were young or with other people when they were children.
"When I was your age," a father said to his sixteen-year-old son one day, "I was at the top of my class every year. And I 42  what I wanted to do when I left school. I had goals (目標). You are always at the bottom (最后) of your class  43 you have no goals."
The man’s son said nothing. He had already heard this from his father many times. "And when your mother was your age, " the young man’s father 44  , " she had a good job and she 45  lots of money. You don’t even have a part-time job .You earn nothing. " The man’s son still said nothing. He had heard this before, too. "And when your 46  brother was your age, "the young man’s father said, "he studied hard. But you just waste your time."
And the man’s son still said nothing.
Finally, the young man’s father said, "And when Abraham Lincoln was your age, he worked all day and studied at night."
This time the son  47  stay silent. "
And when Abraham Lincoln was your age, father," he said, "He was the President of 48  United States. 49  are you?"
His father had no answer 50  this.
Are your parents always comparing you with others? And what’s your reply? Do you have a better way to communicate with each other?

小題1:A 根拇下文父子間的對話可知，所比較的對象是自己孩子的童年與自己的童年，以及別人的童年與自己孩子的童年。
小題1:B 這句話是在講述過去的事件,所以要用過去的某個時態，只有B選項是過去時；A選項是一般現在時,C是將來時,D則是現在完成時。
小題1:C 與父親比較起來，兒子不但成績倒數,而且沒有目標。這兩句話應該是遞進的關系，and可以表示遞進關系。
小題1:D 考查詞組辨析。根據語境可知,這句話要表示的是“父素接著說了起來‘……’”， 選項中只有went on意思是“繼續說,接著剛才的說”;went away意思是“離開”； went over“復習，仔細檢查”;went up“上升,増長"，這三項都不符合題意。此外， 此題答案還可以從第七段找到線索，這里也用到了…the young roan’s father went on ...。

小題1:A 這句話是兒子反問父親，空白處應是用作賓語的疑問詞。how和where只能作狀語；who不符合文意。
小題1:A to為介詞。answer to……的答案。他的父親沒有回答這個。
