Memories
In September ,1940,my mother ,sister and I went to Swansea ,where my father ‘s ship was getting ready to sail ,we brought him a family photography to be kept with him at all times and keep him safe .
Then I remember my mother lying face down ,sobbing .she had heard from a friend that the ship had been sunk by a torpedo (魚雷).
I can remember the arrived of the telegram(電板),which in those days always brought bad news .my grandmother opened it ,it read ,safe .love ted.”
My most vivid memory is being woken and brought down to sit on my father’s knee, his arm in a bandage.
He was judged unfit to return to sea and took a shore job in Glasgow for the rest of the war, for as long as I can remember ,he had a weak heart ,mother said it was caused by the torpedoes .he said it was because of the cigarette ,whichever ,he died suddenly in his early 50s.
Ten years later I read night of the U-boat and able to complete the story .
A toast
In my room is the book and the photograph .often , glass in hand, I have wondered how I would have dealt with an explosion ,a sinking ship ,a jump into a vast ocean and a wait for rescue ?lest (以免 )we forget ,I have some more whisky and toast the heroes of the war.

文章大意:文章介紹父親經(jīng)歷的沉船事件
1. B 推理判斷題。找到Memories下面第一段,文章講到父親從S起航,我們帶給他family photograph目的是be kept with him和keep him safe,推斷出我們是去給父親送行
2. A 細(xì)節(jié)理解題。Telegram 定位,找到Memories 下面第三段,電報(bào)內(nèi)容:safe,確定A
3. A 代詞指代詞。父親說it是由cigarettes引起,母親說it由torpedoes引起,it只代前文的week heart.
4. D 細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文章第二段首句he was alone 確定D
5. C 主旨大意題,C正確。其它選項(xiàng)錯(cuò)誤原因:A, forgotten heroes 在文中都沒有涉及;B terrible battle 沒有提;D merchant’s memories應(yīng)該是作者(merchant’s child 的 memories)
