問題詳情:
Dear 17﹣year﹣old self,
When your Laker dream comes true tomorrow, you need to figure out a way to invest in the future of your family. This sounds simple, and you may think it's a no﹣brainer, but take some time to think on it further.
I said INVEST.
I did not say GIVE
Let me explain.
Purely giving material things to your siblings(兄弟姐妹) may appear to be right decision. So you buy them a car, a big house, pay, all of their bill. You want them to live a beautiful comfortable life, right?
But the day will come when you realize that as much as you believed you were doing the right thing, you were actually holding them back.
You will come to understand that you were taking care of them because it made YOU feel good, it made YOU happy to see them smiling and without a care in the world ﹣ and that was extremely selfish of you. While you were feeling satisfied with yourself, you were slowly eating away at their own dreams and ambitions. You were adding material things to their lives, but subtracting the most precious gifts of all.
Invest in their future, don't just give.
Use your success, wealth and influence to put them in the best position to realize their own dreams and find their true purpose. Put them through school, set them up with job interviews and help them become leaders in their own right. Hold them to the same level of hard work and dedication that it took for you to get to where you are now, and where you will eventually go.
I'm writing you now so that you can begin this process immediately, and so that you don't have to deal with the hurt and struggle of weaning(斷絕) them off of the addiction that you facilitated That addiction only leads to anger, hatred and jealousy from everybody involved, including yourself.
As time goes on, you will see them grow independently and have their own ambitions and their own lives, and your relationship with all of them will be much better as a result.
Trust me, setting things up right from the beginning will avoid a ton of tears and headache, some of which remains to this day.
Much love,

【回答】
158.A
159.A
160.D
【分析】
這是一篇應用文,本文是一篇作者寫給年輕時的自己的一封信,講述瞭如何處理自己與家人之間的關係。
158.主旨大意題。通讀全文,特別是根據文章開頭“Dear 17-year-old self,”可知,本文是寫給年輕時的自己的一封信,故A項正確。
159.詞義猜測題。根據畫線詞前的“you were slowly eating away at their own dreams and ambitions. You were adding material things to their lives, but subtracting”可知,你正在蠶食他們的夢想和抱負,雖然你給他們的生活增添了物質,但卻阻礙了他們的*和成長,由此可知畫線詞指的是“*和成長”,故A項正確。
160.推理判斷題。根據後兩段內容,特別是最後一段“and your relationship with all of them will be much better as a result.Trust me, setting things up right from the beginning will avoid a ton of tears and headache, some of which remains to this day.”可知,你和他們的關係也會因此變得更好。和家人相處方面的一些眼淚和頭痛一直持續到今天,由此可知,作者曾被自己和家人之間的關係所困擾,故D項正確。
【點睛】
本篇詞義猜測題設在句尾,因此對上文的理解是關鍵,根據畫線詞前的and your relationship with all of them will be much better as a result.Trust me, setting things up right from the beginning will avoid a ton of tears and headache, some of which remains to this day.“you were slowly eating away at their own dreams and ambitions. You were adding material things to their lives, but subtracting”可知,你正在蠶食他們的夢想和抱負,雖然你給他們的生活增添了物質,但卻阻礙了他們的*和成長,由此可知畫線詞指的是“*和成長”。
