you have.But I also know that it hasn't always been easy for you and Mom, and that as excited as you
both are about that new puppy, it doesn't 2 for all the time we've been apart.I know 3 I've missed
these past two years, and today I want to tell you a little more about why I decided to take our family
on this journey.
When I was a young man, I thought life was all about me-about how I'd 4 my way in the world,
become successful, and get the things I want.But then the two of you came into my 5 with all your
curiosity and mischief (捣乱) and those smiles that never 6 to fill my heart and light up my day.
I want all our children to go to schools 7 of their potential-schools that challenge them, inspire them,
and instill (灌输) in them a sense of 8 about the world around them.I want them to have the chance to
go to college 9 their parents aren't rich.And I want them to get good jobs: jobs that pay well and give
them benefits like health care, jobs that let them spend time with their own 10 and retire with dignity.
I want us to 11 the boundaries of discovery so that you'll live to see new technologies and
inventions that improve our lives and make our planet cleaner and safer.And I want us to push our own
human boundaries to reach 12 the divides of race and region, gender and religion that 13 us from
seeing the best in each other.
That was the 14 your grandmother tried to teach me when I was your age, reading me the opening
lines of the Declaration of Independence and telling me about the men and women who marched for 15
because they believed those words put to paper two centuries ago should mean 16 .
She helped me understand that America is great not because it is perfect but because it can always be
made better and that the 17 work of perfecting our union falls to each of us.It's a charge we pass on to
our children, coming closer with each new generation to 18 we know America should be.
These are the things I want for you, to 19 in a world with no limits on your dreams and no
achievements beyond your reach.And I want every child to have the same chances to learn and dream
and grow and thrive that you girls have.That's why I've taken our family on this great adventure.
I am so proud of both of you.I love you 20 you can ever know.And I am grateful every day for your
patience, poise (自信), grace, and humor as we prepare to start our new life together in the White House.

考点
据考高分专家说，试题“完形填空。 What.....”主要考查你对 [日常生活类阅读 ]考点的理解。日常生活类阅读
日常生活类阅读的概念：
日常生活这一话题主要涉及人们衣食住行等方面的活动。这一话题的选材主要针对人们日常的工作，生活以及学习情况。做这一类题时，最主要的是要把握好人物的活动内容，时间和地点。
日常生活类阅读题答题技巧：
【题型说明】
该类文章内容涉及到人们的言谈举止、生活习惯、饮食起居、服饰仪表、恋爱婚姻、消遣娱乐、节日起源、家庭生活等。文章篇幅短小，追根溯源，探索各项风俗的历史渊源，内容有趣。命题也以送分题为主，如事实细节题、语义转换题、词义猜测题和简单推理判断题等。虽然这类文章读起来感觉轻松，试题做起来比较顺手，但绝不能掉以轻心。因为稍不留神，就会丢分。
【备考提醒】
为了保证较高准确率，建议同学们做好以下几点：
1、保持正常的考试心态。笔者在教学中发现，越是容易的试题，同学们越是容易失分。为什么呢？因为在这种情况下，同学们极易产生麻痹思想，认为题目好做，就不引起高度重视，于是思维不发散、不周密。而命题人就是利用同学们的这一弱点，设计陷阱题。所以，无论试题难易与否，我们都要保持正常的考试心态。试题容易，不欣喜；试题难，不悲观。
2、根据前面讲到的方法，认认真真、细细心心做好事实细节题。
3、做好语义转换题。这类题是根据英语中一词多义和某些词语在文中能表达一定的修辞意义的原则而设计的。要求同学们解释某生词的含义，确定多义词或短语在文中的意思，确认文中的某个代词所指代的对象，或者对英语中特有的表达、格言、谚语进行解释。这种题要求同学们一定要根据上下文猜测词义或理解句子，切不可望文生义。
4、做好简单推理判断题。简单推理判断题要以表面文字为前提，以具体事实为依据进行推理，做出判断。这种推理方式比较直接，只要弄清事实，即可结合常识推断出合理的结论。
