Question

1．Mothers and daughters go through so much-yet when was the last time a mother and daughter sat down to write a book together about it all？Perri Klass and her mother，Sheila Solomon Klass，both gifted professional writers，prove to be ideal co-writers as they examine their decades of motherhood，daughterhood，and the wonderful ways their lives have overlapped （重疊）．
　　Perri notes with amazement how closely her own life has mirrored her mother's：both have full-time careers； both have published books，articles，and stories； each has three children； they both love to read．They also love to travel-in fact，they often take trips together．But in truth，the harder they look at their lives，the more they acknowledge their big differences in circumstance and basic nature．
　　A child of the Depression （大蕭條），Sheila was raised in Brooklyn by parents who considered education a luxury for girls．Starting with her college education，she has fought for everything she's ever accomplished．Perri，on the other hand，grew up privileged in the New Jersey suburbs of the 1960s and 1970s．For Sheila，wasting time or money is a crime，and luxury is unthinkable while Perri enjoys the occasional small luxury，but has not been successful at trying to persuade her mother into enjoying even the tiniest thing she likes．
　　Each writing in her own unmistakable voice，Perri and Sheila take turns exploring the joys and pains，the love and bitterness，the minor troubles and lasting respect that have always bonded them together．Sheila describes the adventure of giving birth to Perri in a tiny town in Trinidad where her husband was doing research fieldwork．Perri admits that she can't sort out all the mess in the households，even though she knows it drives her mother crazy．Together they compare thoughts on bringing up children and working，admit long-hidden sorrows，and enjoy precious memories．
　　Looking deep into the lives they have lived separately and together，Perri and Sheila tell their mother-daughter story with honesty，humor，enthusiasm，and admiration for each other．A written account in two voices，Every Mother Is a Daughter is a duet（二重奏） that produces a deep，strong sound with the experiences that all mothers and daughters will recognize．

A．They both have gone through difficult times．
B．They have strong emotional ties with each other．
C．They have the same joys and pains，and love and bitterness．

Answer 1

分析 這是一篇記敘文，一對母女合作寫了一本名叫"Every Mother Is a Daughter"的書．本文記敘了這對母女生活和寫作中的快樂以及不同的生活經(jīng)歷．

解答 55．D  細(xì)節(jié)理解題．第二段開頭說，Perri驚訝地注意到，自己的生活幾乎就是母親生活的一面鏡子：她們都有自己的全職事業(yè)，都出版了書籍、文章和小說，每個人都生了3個孩子，都喜歡看書，喜歡旅游．由此可知選D．
56．C  猜測詞義題．第三段說母親在Brooklyn成長，在經(jīng)濟大蕭條時代出生的孩子，父母都覺得讓女孩上學(xué)是luxury；后面提到對母親來說，浪費時間或者錢是犯罪，luxury是難以想象的，而女兒Perri偶爾享受一下小小的luxury．從這些信息看，luxury不是"令人不愉快的、難以想象的""只有男孩能夠享受的"，而是"昂貴而非必要的東西"．故選C．
57．A  主旨大意題．第四段提到，這對母女在書中描述把她們的生活連接到一起的那些快樂與痛苦，愛與恨，講到母女交流撫養(yǎng)孩子的想法，一起享受珍貴的記憶等．從該段內(nèi)容看，這是回顧這本書的內(nèi)容，而不是寫書的目的、書的影響或?qū)懽黠L(fēng)格．
58．D 推理判斷題．最后一段說，這本書是用兩個人的聲音在講述，好比二重奏；第四段說她們每個人都用自己的不會被弄混淆的聲音在輪流講述．從這些信息看，這本書的寫作風(fēng)格是母女從不同的角度探索女性生活，而不是"用音樂形式（誤解了二重奏的含義）、通過野外研究（Perri父親的工作）、獨特的寫作技巧（本文沒有談到她們的寫作技巧）"．
