问题 I found my father a very hard man to understand when I was young. He was very short and thin and had large blue eyes. I could have loved him as I loved my mother but he seemed to hold us off so that we could not approach (接近) him or sit on his knee as children love to do. I believed he had a hard life as a child, and I know that he left school at the age of ten and started work. This may have had something to do with it, but I can only guess. In later life I came to love him very much, but at the time I speak of him as an unsociable (不善交际的) man, unfriendly even to the people closest to him. I never knew him to ’have a close friend as the other man did.
Everything he did had to be precise. If he chopped the sticks for the fire, each stick would be the same length as all the others, and they would all be put in order. His motto (座右铭) was "if a thing is worth doing, it is worth doing well".
选项 A、Right
B、Wrong
C、Doesn’t say
答案B
解析 原文第一段第一行说到“I could have loved him as I loved my mother but he seemed to hold us off so that we could not approach”(我本可以像爱妈妈一样爱爸爸的，但他看上去和我们保持距离，所以我们无法接近他)，这里关键词是“hold…off”，意思为：“和…保持一定的距离”。所以我们得知作者认为爸爸难以接近是因为他和孩子们有距离，并不是因为他“too short and thin”，所以本题的命题为错误。
