A girl complained to her father about her hard life. She didn’t know what she had to do and wanted to 36 . She felt tired for fighting and fighting. One problem had been finished but another came.
Her father, a cook, took her 37 the kitchen. He poured water into three pans(锅)and boiled(煮)it. When the water was boiling, in the first pan he put some carrots, in the 38 he put some eggs and in the last he put some coffee. He39 them for a few minutes without any words.
The girl closed her mouth and waited impatiently, not knowing40 her father was doing that. After about 20 minutes, her father turned41 the stove, took out the carrots and put them in a bowl. He took out the eggs and put 42 in another bowl. After that the43 was poured into a cup. Turning back to his daughter, he asked, What do you44 ? Carrots, eggs, and coffee, she answered.
Her father told her to 45 her eyes and let her touch the carrots. She did and felt that the carrots were soft. After that he asked her to take the eggs and 46 them. Then, she got the eggs, cooked and hard. At last, the father asked her to smell the coffee. What’s the meaning, Father? He 47 that each had suffered the same unlucky experience— the boiling water, but 48 had a different reaction(反应). The strong and hard carrots had become soft and weak after being in the boiling water. The eggs became hard 49 being cooked. The coffee was very special and it changed the water. Who are you? asked her father, When calamity(厄运) 50 your door, what’s your reaction? Are you carrots, eggs, or coffee?

答案：
(答案→)B
解析：本文讲述了父亲在女儿生活遇到麻烦时，用开水煮胡萝卜、鸡蛋和咖啡的烹饪方法，揭示了一个重要的人生道理：我们在经历了困难和挣扎之后，应该成为能够改变自己命运的主人。
【小题1】 B。 既考查动词短语含义：A长大；B放弃；C建立；D捡起；还需要把握人物思想状况：女儿对困难不知所措，想要放弃。
【小题1】 A。 动词短语搭配，take sb into 把某人带入某地，厨师父亲把女儿带进了厨房。
【小题1】 B。 考查上下文。根据上文，in the first pan, 显然在第二口锅里父亲放进了鸡蛋。
【小题1】 C。 考查动词短语：A寻找；B寻找；C等待； D要求。根据对父亲在放东西之后的行为的推测，以及后面的for a few minutes可以帮助我们确定答案为持续性动词短语“等待”。
【小题1】 D。 女儿不理解父亲的行为，只能等待，她不知道为什么父亲要煮这些东西。处理连词时，可以使用填词试探的方法，将连词逐一放入文章中，考查它们的合理性。
【小题1】 C。 考查动词短语。turn off关上电器、灶具等。
【小题1】 C。 考查上下文和人称代词，父亲把eggs拿出锅，把它们放到另一个碗里，所以用them指代。
【小题1】 C。 上文提示，最后处理的是 coffee。
【小题1】 D。 动词辨析，并且下文有提示，女儿回答carrots, eggs and coffee, 可以推测到父亲的问题是：你“看见”了什么？
【小题1】 A。 下文说父亲让女儿触摸，可见要闭上眼睛。下文还提到She did and felt that the carrots were soft.
【小题1】 C。 下文提示：she got boiled and hard eggs，这一定是敲碎煮熟的鸡蛋后的结果。上文就是break。
【小题1】 B。 从本题开始升华文章中心。父亲用常识来解析生活哲理，所以选explained,解释。
【小题1】 C。 上文提示：each one had had the same unlucky experience — the boiled water, 意思是：每样物品都经历了相同的不幸—被煮过；但是每样物品却有着不同的反应。上下文存在转折关系。
【小题1】 B。 鸡蛋在煮熟之后变硬，所以选 after。
【小题1】 D。 考查动词固定搭配。当厄运“叩响”你的大门时（意思是困难来临时），你的反应是什么？
