I’ve always had strong opinions of how love should be expressed, but others had their own ways of showing care.
What I 36 most about visiting my boyfriend’s parents is the loud tick of the clock in the dining room as we 37 ate our meal. With so little conversation I was quick to 38 his family as cold. When we got into the 39 to go home, his father suddenly appeared. 40 , he began to wash his son’s windscreen. I could feel he was a caring man through the glass.
I learned another lesson about love a few years later. My father often 41 me early in the morning. “Buy Xerox. It’s a good sharp price,” he might say when I answered the phone. No pleasant 42 or inquiry about my life, just financial instructions. This manner of his 43 me and we often quarreled. But one day, I thought about my father’s success in business and realized that his concern for my financial security lay behind his 44 morning calls. The next time he called and told me to buy a stock, I 45 him.
When my social style has conflicted with that of my friends, I’ve often felt 46 . For example, I always return phone calls 47 and regularly contact with my friends. I expect the same from them. I had one friend who rarely called, answering my messages with short e-mails. I rushed to the 48 : She wasn’t a good friend! My anger 49 as the holidays approached. But then she came to a gathering I 50 and handed me a beautiful dress I had fallen in love with when we did some window-shopping the previous month. I was 51 at her thoughtfulness, and regretful for how I’d considered her to be 52 . Clearly I needed to change my expectations of friends.
Far too often, I ignored their 53 expressions, eagerly expecting them to do things in my 54 . Over the years, however, I’ve learned to 55 other persons, love signs.

(答案→)A 解析：关于如何表达爱，我一直都有着自己的观点；但别人也有他们自己表达关心的方法。【小题1】what引导的是主语从句，“去拜访男友的父母时，我记的最清楚的是他家的钟表的滴答声”，故选A。【小题1】根据“With so little conversation ...”可知，他们吃饭时很“安静”。故选C。【小题1】固定搭配。Regard...as...“把......当做......”。“我很快就认为他们家人很冷漠”。故选A。【小题1】根据后文作者男友的爸爸来擦挡风玻璃可知，作者他们是开车回家的。故选C。【小题1】考查副词辨析。A“准时地”；B“仔细地”；C“自豪地”；D“冷酷地”。父亲很仔细地擦车。故选B。【小题1】根据“when I answered the phone”可知，作者的父母是打来的电话。故选D。【小题1】父母打来电话不说愉快的问候，不过问作者的生活，知识说一些金融方面的指导。故选A。【小题1】根据quarrel可知，这里应该用一个指心情不好的词，只有anger“使生气”符合。故选B。【小题1】早上打来电话，知识提醒一下关于资金方面的事，所以是短暂的。故选B。【小题1】 praised“表扬”；remembered“记住，纪念”；blamed“责备”；thanked“感谢”。A项显得不尊重长辈。故选D。 【小题1】 content“满足的”；guilty“内疚的”；curious“好奇的”；disappointed“失望的”。从后文的例子来看，当作者的社交风格与朋友的相冲突时，作者会感到失望。故选D。【小题1】考查固定短语。in order后加to do或that；in turn“依次，轮流”；without delay“立刻”；without difficulty“容易地”。作者接到朋友的电话，之后会立即回一个以示礼貌。故选C。【小题1】feeling“感觉”；suggestion“建议”；judgment“判断”；belief“信念”。作者得出“她不是一个好朋友”的结论。故选C。【小题1】随着假期的临近，作者的愤怒也在增长，故用grew。故选B。【小题1】那个朋友来参加增长主持的一个聚会。故选C。【小题1】那个朋友送给作者一件作者喜欢的裙子，作者感到很意外，并对她的细心感到惊讶。故选D。【小题1】作者原先认为那个女孩不在意、不重视作者。故选A。【小题1】unique“独特的”，作者忽视了他人特有的表达爱和关心的方法。故选A。【小题1】考查固定搭配。in one’s way“按照某人的方法”，故选B。【小题1】根据“love signs”可知，作者开始变得从他人的行为、肢体语言中寻找信息。read在此可以意为“读取，识别”。故选B。
