【详解】句意：——在电影《热辣滚烫》中看到一个新的贾玲真是太惊喜了！——当然。我以前从来没有看过这么好的电影。
考查感叹句和such的用法。what和hw均可引导感叹句，其句式分别为“What (a/an)+形容词+名词（+主语+谓语）!”和“Hw+形容词/副词（+主语+谓语）!”；s和such均表示“如此”，s后跟形容词或副词，such跟形容词和名词构成的名词短语。第一空“great surprise”构成名词短语，且表示一个“很大惊喜”时，应加不定冠词a，第一空用what a；第二空“excellent film”为名词短语，应用such an。故选B。

When I walked int the huse after schl, I fund my dad at hme.
“What are yu ding hme already?” I asked casually.
“Andrew, I was ut f wrk tday,” he answered quietly.
I was sure he was jking. “N, yu weren’t. Why are yu really hme?”
Then I nticed his expressin and realized he was telling the truth. My father has always been a hard wrker and prided (以……为傲) himself n his jb. That terrible thing led t many changes in ur lives.

One evening I asked if he needed help. “Only if it desn’t interfere (妨碍) with schl,” he said, which sunded like a yes.
I went t his ffice the next afternn, and mst afternns after that fr tw mnths. I always knew he was a hard wrker, but watching him in actin really tuched me. This was ne f the wrst experiences fr ur family, but it taught me a lt abut dealing with adversity. Nw I knw that thrugh creative prblem-slving, I can always find plans, ask fr help, and take risks.
