第二部分 阅读理解（满分20分）阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。
A
One evening, author Neil’s son was angry. Neil had said one of those things that parents say, like “isn’t it time you were in bed.” His son looked up at him, angry and said, “I wish I didn’t have a dad! I wish I had … a goldfish!” That conversation gave birth to Neil’s book, “The Day I Swapped My Dad for Two Goldfish”. The book is a funny adventure of a son searching for the dad he swapped.
Whether they realize it or not, fathers play an important role in their children’s development. Roland Warren, Director of the National Fatherhood Initiative, says that, “The shape of their dads has a role in the kids’ soul.” I agree. We live in the best of times and the worst of times for fatherhood. We live in the best of times because fathers who are engaged in their child’s life spend more time than fathers of any previous generation. We live in the worst of times because there are still millions of children who continue to miss the regular presence of Dad.
What difference does a dad make? Are they really that important? For the most part, studies have proved clearly that fathers, whether they live with their children or not, matter in the lives of their children. When fathers are present, they provide economic support for their children and caregiving responsibilities. Well-fathered children are shown to be more emotionally intelligent and socially successful as adults. When fathers are absent, their absence may negatively influence children’s academic achievement, general behavioural adjustment and anger management, especially in males.
Yet just being physically present isn’t enough to be a great father. It is important that a dad be warm and emotionally available to his child. Author and researcher, John Gottman, describes this kind of father as an “emotion coaching father”. Emotion coaches are parents who listen to their children’s feelings, see the sharing of feelings as an opportunity for intimacy（亲密）. It is not just the mere presence of fathers that matters, but how they are present. Most children long for and need a loving, devoted and responsible father.
1、The author introduces his topic by ______.
A．presenting the results of studies B．telling a story
C．making a comparison D．interviewing some experts
2、What does the author mean in Paragraph 2 by saying “We live in the worst of times … ”?
A．Today’s fathers don’t care about their children’s emotions.
B．Lots of children’s fathers have to work every day.
C．Lots of children’s fathers are absent from their lives.
D．Today’s fathers don’t have care giving responsibilities.
3、According to the text, a well-fathered child is more likely to _______.
A．lose control of anger B．obtain high academic achievement
C．have low emotional intelligence D．have good social skills
4、We can learn from the text that an “emotion coaching father” is a father who ______.
A．gives economic support to his child B．shares his child’s emotions
C．tries to change his child’s emotions D．is always available to his child
