A
LONDON — Life for Cathy Hagner and her three children is set to permanent(永久的) fast-forward.
Their full school day and her job as a lawyer’s assistant are busy enough. But Hagner also has to take the two boys to soccer or hockey or basketball while dropping off her daughter at piano lessons or Girl Scout Club.
Often, the exhausted family doesn’t get home until 7 pm. There is just time for a quick supper before homework. In today’s world, middle-class American and British parents treat their children as if they are competitors racing for some finishing line.
Parents take their children from activity to activity in order to make their future bright. It seems that raising a genius has become a more important goal than raising a happy and well-balanced child.
“Doctors across the country are reporting a growing number of children suffering from stomachaches and headaches due to exhaustion and stress, ” says child expert William Doherty of the University of Minnesota.
Teachers are dealing with exhausted kids in the classroom. It’s a very serious problem. Many children attend after-school clubs by necessity. But competitive pressures also create an explosion of activities. They include sports, language, music and math classes for children as young as four.
“There is a new parenting trend(趋势) under way which says that you have to tap all your child’s potential(潜能) at a young age; otherwise you will let him down, they will be unhappy, ” says Terry Apter, a Cambridge-based child and adolescent psychiatrist(青少年精神病专家).
“It isn’t entirely new: there have always been pushy parents. But what was previously(以前) seen as strange behaviour is now well accepted. ”
【语篇概述】现在的英、美中产家庭的父母让孩子们参加各种课外俱乐部, 学习体育、语言、音乐、数学等, 把孩子们变成了学习的机器, 孩子们感到不幸福。
21. From the second paragraph of this passage we can find that ______.
A. Hagner wastes much time helping her children’s lessons
B. Hagner doesn’t spend much time on her full-time job
C. Hagner is interested in sports and music
D. Hagner busies herself by following a trend
【解析】选D。段落大意题。本段主要说Hagner忙于接送两个儿子和一个女儿去上各种各样的辅导班, 因为这在英国中产家庭中也算一种潮流, 故选D。
22. British parents, as the writer described in this passage, ______.
A. treat their children as sports players
B. pay no attention to their children’s lessons
C. bring up their children in a simple way
D. give their children little time to develop freely
【解析】选D。推理判断题。从文章内容可以看出, 在英国, 孩子们在学校已经够累了, 回到家里, 父母亲还要他们参加课外俱乐部的一个又一个活动, 孩子们自由发展的空间当然没有了。
23. The writer’s opinion about after-school clubs is that ______.
A. activities in the country are too competitive
B. children should attend four clubs at a time
C. some clubs result in competitive pressures
D. clubs should have more subjects for school children
【解析】选C。推理判断题。第 六 段第四句话“ But competitive pressures also create an explosion of activities ”表现了作者的观点。
B
Stop wasting your time thinking of reasons for your failures. Instead, realize that the seeds of success were planted within you when you were born. Only you have the power to make those seeds grow.
The seeds, and the power to grow them, are contained in the most awesome machine ever created: the human mind. Success is a choice and not a chance. You were born a winner. You were born rich. You can be a success if only you make the right choice.
You cannot be successful without first developing your self-confidence. Your level of self-confidence is always based on the degree of control that you are able to exercise over yourself, and thus over your life. People with low self-confidence are people who do not believe that they have any power, or responsibility for their lives. They are always victims. They are leaves tossed(摇摆) by the winds of chance blown about with any sudden change in the weather.
You can exercise control over your life only to the degree that you believe that you are responsible for whatever happens in your life. Failures think that everything happens by accident while successful people realize that they are responsible.
Everything happens as a result of something. If we can identify(确定) the cause, we can control the effect. We are responsible for what we choose to accept and believe. One generally rises to the level that one expects. We are responsible for setting our expectations. Our success depends upon our level of confidence.
In all areas of your life, whether they are financial, physical, emotional, or spiritual, you are responsible. Once you recognize this, accept it, and firmly believe it, you are on the road to success.
【语篇概述】本文告诉我们每一个人生来都可以成功, 也可以富裕, 那么如何做到呢 就在于你是否能够让成功的种子发芽。
24. People with low self-confidence are compared to leaves because they______.
A. don’t have the power to face their fate
B. are ready to change their minds
C. can’t exercise control over themselves
D. are easily affected by windy weather
【解析】选C。细节理解题。根据文章第三段第三句 “People with low self-confidence are people who do not believe that they have any power, or responsibility for their lives. ”可知, 不自信的人是因为他们不相信自己有能力, 也不相信自己能够为自己的生活做主, 他们就像随风摇摆的落叶, 故选C。
25. Losers would think that______.
A. their failure is only because of bad luck
B. they don’t make efforts to succeed
C. success is the result of hard work

A. what we believe in is the result of creative mind
B. whether we will succeed depends on our attitudes
C. setting our expectations is vital before taking action

【解析】选B。推理判断题。根据第五段最后两句 “We are responsible for setting our expectations. Our success depends upon our level of confidence. ”可知, 人们的思想和信念决定一切, 走向成功需要对自己充满期望和自信, 故选B。
27. The last paragraph serves as ______.
A. an introduction to another topic
B. a comparison between two views

【解析】选D。推理判断题。最后一段主要总结整篇文章的内容, 即要对你自己的生活负责, 要坚信这一点, 这样你才会走向成功, 故选D。
C
Two years ago, I wrote about how lucky we are to be able to travel the world. Most people never leave their own country, let alone their continent.
In the “quit your job to travel the world” cheerleading on travel websites, we often forget that it’s not easy for everyone, especially for those who are too sick, have parents or children to care for, face great debt, or work three jobs just to make rent.
After all, 2. 8 billion people—nearly 40% of the world’s population—survive on less than $2 a day! In my home country of the United States, 14% of the population is below the poverty line; 46 million people are on food stamps; many have to work two jobs to get by, and we have a trillion dollars in student debt dragging people down.
Nothing any website can say will magically make travel a reality for those people. Those of us who do travel are a privileged few.
That’s not to say that hard work doesn’t count. Support from family and friends, jobs that allow for overtime, cheap flights, or golden passports that allow you to find work overseas. All these things matter. Most of us who travel aren’t barely getting by or on social assistance nor do we wonder if we can afford the next meal.
Whether you are traveling the world on $10, $50, or $200 a day, the simple fact that you are traveling for pleasure puts you in a global minority.
Traveling constantly teaches me to appreciate just how lucky I am to do what I do. It reminds me never to forget the fact that I have access to education and resources most of the world doesn’t.
【语篇概述】本文是一篇议论文。文章主要介绍了出国旅游的人是幸运的, 而不能去旅游的人有诸多原因, 以及旅游的收获。
28. What’s the author’s attitude towards the websites’ “quit your job to travel the world”
A. Critical. B. Admiring. C. Positive. D. Depressed.
【解析】选A。推理判断题。根据第二段内容可知, 作者对于网站号召的“辞掉工作去周游世界”这一看法是持批判态度的, 原因是其认为对于一些生病的人、有父母或孩子需要照顾的人、债务缠身的人或做3份工作来交房租的人来说, 旅行并不是一件容易的事, 故选A。
29. What does the author mainly want to express by listing the facts in the third paragraph
A. The people in the US are below the poverty line.
B. For many people who are poor travel is not available.
C. Many students have to pay for their debt after graduation.
D. 2. 8 billion people in the US survive on less than $2 a day.
【解析】选B。推理判断题。第三段主要列举了一些贫困的具体情况, 列出的这些事实正是验证前文提到的并不是每个人都可以旅行这一观点, 故选B项。D项与原文不符, 原文提到的是世界人口而非美国人口, 故不能选。
30. For most travellers, they______.
A. have no access to overseas work
B. have to work hard to afford their travel
C. needn’t worry about their accommodations
D. don’t get any support from family or friends
【解析】选C。细节理解题。根据第五段最后一句可知, 对于大多数旅行者来说, 他们不用想是否能支付下一餐, 故选C项。根据这一段前两句可知, 他们得到家人和朋友的支持, 也可以在国外找到工作, 故不选A、D两项; 没有信息表明他们必须努力工作, 故不选B项。
31. What’s the main purpose of the passage
A. To give advice. B. To make an explanation.
C. To present opinions. D. To provide information.
【解析】选C。推理判断题。纵观全文可知, 这篇文章主要是为了表达作者自己的观点, 故选C。
D
In my years of teaching, I have had the pleasure of teaching several children who seem to do well in all courses. I find these children who have higher than average exposure (接触) to art usually read and write better than their classmates. My conclusion is that their exposure to art affects other aspects of their learning. This leads me to a discussion with Aiko Cuneo, an artist who works with children in public schools. Here are some points where we agree.
We suggest that expand their definition of art. If you are a baker or a cook, if you like to arrange flowers, and if you enjoy the pleasant arrangement of objects in your home, you are an artist. These expressions of creativity are as valuable as those of painters and the other people we call artists. If you are a scientist and enjoy inventing and experimenting, you bring an artistic sensibility to your work and may include yourself in the definition of an artist.
Art is a delightful way through which you can record the development of your child’s growth. Just as you will notice that writing and reading improve with age, so does artwork. The role of parents and teachers is to expose children to a variety of materials so that they can create art. Once the variety is offered, children will then have a choice as to whether they want to use the materials or not. But without the exposure, there is no choice.
In a ten-year national study by Shirley Brice Heath of Stanford University, it was discovered that young people who are involved in art programs, in comparison with a national sample of students, were at least four times more likely to make achievements in the academic (学术的) programs, community service and other fields.
【语篇概述】本文是一篇议论文。作者发现接触艺术的孩子在学习方面表现更好, 因此在文中提出几种帮助孩子接触艺术的方法, 并提供了科学依据。
32. What does the author discover according to Paragraph 1
A. Teaching art is a meaningful job.
B. Most students have talent for art.
C. Art is beneficial to students’ learning.
D. Artists should be invited to teach children.
【解析】选C。细节理解题。根据第一段“these children . . . exposure to art usually read and write better than their classmates. . . their exposure to art affects other aspects of their learning. ”可知, 作者发现艺术有益于孩子们的学习, 故选C。
33. What can be inferred about art from Paragraph 2
A. Art expressions can be various.
B. Parents should focus more on art.
C. Few parents have a deep understanding of art.
D. Creativity should be developed at an early age.
【解析】选A。推理判断题。根据第二段“If you are a baker . . . These expressions of creativity are as valuable as those of painters and the other people we call artists. ”可推知, 艺术的表现形式可以是多种多样的, 故选A。
34. According to Paragraph 3, parents are advised to ______.
A. record their children’s growth carefully
B. improve their children’s writing and reading by art
C. create an environment of art materials for children
D. notice the improvement of children’s writing and reading
【解析】选C。细节理解题。根据第三段“The role . . . expose children to a variety of materials so that they can create art. . . . without the exposure, there is no choice. ”可知, 老师和父母的角色让孩子接触多样化的素材以便孩子们能够进行艺术创作, 故父母应该给孩子们提供一个充满艺术氛围的环境, 故选C。
35. What can be the best title for the text
A. The methods to help children understand art
B. The importance of art for children
C. The ways for parents to express art
D. The difficulties in art education
【解析】选B。标题归纳题。根据全文内容可知, 本文主要论述了艺术对于孩子的重要性, 故选B。

阅读下面材料, 根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段, 使之构成一篇完整的短文。
It was somewhere between spring and summer, my mom and I were driving through the countryside. Back then, I was 13 years old and always felt unhappy with Mom. But little did I know that this trip was going to be a special one.
A pot of flowers sat in the back seat, whose heavenly scent filled the car. Suddenly, in the middle of nowhere, my mom pulled over. “What are you doing ” I cried, fearing that the car had broken down and we’d be stuck there, so far from home. But that wasn’t the case. My mom hopped out of the car, grabbing the flowers from the back seat. “It’ll just be a minute, ” she called back through the open windows.
My eyes impatiently skimmed the edge of the road before settling on a little sign showing that it was a nursing home. I looked back to the building, somewhat annoyed, as my mom reappeared—empty-handed.
Before she started the car, curiosity drove me to ask, “Do you know someone there ” She shook her head. “Then what did you do with the flowers ” She smiled slightly, “I gave them to the receptionist(前台接待员). ” “What ” She laughed at my confusion. “I told the receptionist to give the flowers to whoever needed them, especially who hasn’t gotten any in a while. ”
I kept silent for a moment. Not long after we continued our driving, I spoke again, “Did you leave your name ” To this she answered instantly, “No. Leaving flowers there for someone who will appreciate them makes me feel good, which is enough of a thank for me. ”
Suddenly, still thinking about Mom’s deeds, I heard something burst loudly. It was our car that broke down! Nothing could be worse, because neither my mom nor I understood how to repair it, and we didn’t know where the garage was. It also seemed impossible to wait for any passer-by, since we had seen so few along the way.
注意: 1. 续写词数应为150左右;

【参考范文】
We were worrying about what could be done. But after waiting in vain for a considerable time, Mom and I decided to walk back the road to the nursing home and seek help. God knows how far we had driven! When we arrived, the receptionist was surprised, but warmly helped us contact the garage. There, the old men who had received the flowers were excited to meet us, talking about how great that day was. It amazed us what random actions of kindness could mean to the people who received it. While we were laughing and talking merrily, the garage got our car repaired.
As we drove along, a flower shop came into sight on the road. I paced quickly into the flower shop, where a bunch of flowers glowing red in full bloom caught my eye. Having witnessed the effect of kindness, I decided to send Mom the sweet flowers. Soon, the heavenly scent filled the car again. Mom tried to conceal her excitement, but the glittering tears failed her. Through this trip, I discovered that, despite my occasional anger towards her, I actually felt proud of her. This was the trip of my life.

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
LONDON — Life for Cathy Hagner and her three children is set to permanent(永久的) fast-forward.
Their full school day and her job as a lawyer’s assistant are busy enough. But Hagner also has to take the two boys to soccer or hockey or basketball while dropping off her daughter at piano lessons or Girl Scout Club.
Often, the exhausted family doesn’t get home until 7 pm. There is just time for a quick supper before homework. In today’s world, middle-class American and British parents treat their children as if they are competitors racing for some finishing line.
Parents take their children from activity to activity in order to make their future bright. It seems that raising a genius has become a more important goal than raising a happy and well-balanced child.
“Doctors across the country are reporting a growing number of children suffering from stomachaches and headaches due to exhaustion and stress, ” says child expert William Doherty of the University of Minnesota.
Teachers are dealing with exhausted kids in the classroom. It’s a very serious problem. Many children attend after-school clubs by necessity. But competitive pressures also create an explosion of activities. They include sports, language, music and math classes for children as young as four.
“There is a new parenting trend(趋势) under way which says that you have to tap all your child’s potential(潜能) at a young age; otherwise you will let him down, they will be unhappy, ” says Terry Apter, a Cambridge-based child and adolescent psychiatrist(青少年精神病专家).
“It isn’t entirely new: there have always been pushy parents. But what was previously(以前) seen as strange behaviour is now well accepted. ”
21. From the second paragraph of this passage we can find that ______.
A. Hagner wastes much time helping her children’s lessons
B. Hagner doesn’t spend much time on her full-time job
C. Hagner is interested in sports and music
D. Hagner busies herself by following a trend
22. British parents, as the writer described in this passage, ______.
A. treat their children as sports players
B. pay no attention to their children’s lessons
C. bring up their children in a simple way
D. give their children little time to develop freely
23. The writer’s opinion about after-school clubs is that ______.
A. activities in the country are too competitive
B. children should attend four clubs at a time
C. some clubs result in competitive pressures
D. clubs should have more subjects for school children
B
Stop wasting your time thinking of reasons for your failures. Instead, realize that the seeds of success were planted within you when you were born. Only you have the power to make those seeds grow.
The seeds, and the power to grow them, are contained in the most awesome machine ever created: the human mind. Success is a choice and not a chance. You were born a winner. You were born rich. You can be a success if only you make the right choice.
You cannot be successful without first developing your self-confidence. Your level of self-confidence is always based on the degree of control that you are able to exercise over yourself, and thus over your life. People with low self-confidence are people who do not believe that they have any power, or responsibility for their lives. They are always victims. They are leaves tossed(摇摆) by the winds of chance blown about with any sudden change in the weather.
You can exercise control over your life only to the degree that you believe that you are responsible for whatever happens in your life. Failures think that everything happens by accident while successful people realize that they are responsible.
Everything happens as a result of something. If we can identify(确定) the cause, we can control the effect. We are responsible for what we choose to accept and believe. One generally rises to the level that one expects. We are responsible for setting our expectations. Our success depends upon our level of confidence.
In all areas of your life, whether they are financial, physical, emotional, or spiritual, you are responsible. Once you recognize this, accept it, and firmly believe it, you are on the road to success.
24. People with low self-confidence are compared to leaves because they______.
A. don’t have the power to face their fate
B. are ready to change their minds
C. can’t exercise control over themselves
D. are easily affected by windy weather
25. Losers would think that______.
A. their failure is only because of bad luck
B. they don’t make efforts to succeed
C. success is the result of hard work
D. working hard will lead to success
26. It can be inferred from Paragraph 5 that______.
A. what we believe in is the result of creative mind
B. whether we will succeed depends on our attitudes
C. setting our expectations is vital before taking action
D. knowing cause and effect is the key to future success
27. The last paragraph serves as ______.
A. an introduction to another topic
B. a comparison between two views
C. the proof of the author’s points
D. the conclusion of the argument
C
Two years ago, I wrote about how lucky we are to be able to travel the world. Most people never leave their own country, let alone their continent.
In the “quit your job to travel the world” cheerleading on travel websites, we often forget that it’s not easy for everyone, especially for those who are too sick, have parents or children to care for, face great debt, or work three jobs just to make rent.
After all, 2. 8 billion people—nearly 40% of the world’s population—survive on less than $2 a day! In my home country of the United States, 14% of the population is below the poverty line; 46 million people are on food stamps; many have to work two jobs to get by, and we have a trillion dollars in student debt dragging people down.
Nothing any website can say will magically make travel a reality for those people. Those of us who do travel are a privileged few.
That’s not to say that hard work doesn’t count. Support from family and friends, jobs that allow for overtime, cheap flights, or golden passports that allow you to find work overseas. All these things matter. Most of us who travel aren’t barely getting by or on social assistance nor do we wonder if we can afford the next meal.
Whether you are traveling the world on $10, $50, or $200 a day, the simple fact that you are traveling for pleasure puts you in a global minority.
Traveling constantly teaches me to appreciate just how lucky I am to do what I do. It reminds me never to forget the fact that I have access to education and resources most of the world doesn’t.
28. What’s the author’s attitude towards the websites’ “quit your job to travel the world”
A. Critical. B. Admiring. C. Positive. D. Depressed.
29. What does the author mainly want to express by listing the facts in the third paragraph
A. The people in the US are below the poverty line.
B. For many people who are poor travel is not available.
C. Many students have to pay for their debt after graduation.
D. 2. 8 billion people in the US survive on less than $2 a day.
30. For most travellers, they______.
A. have no access to overseas work
B. have to work hard to afford their travel
C. needn’t worry about their accommodations
D. don’t get any support from family or friends
31. What’s the main purpose of the passage
A. To give advice. B. To make an explanation.
C. To present opinions. D. To provide information.
D
In my years of teaching, I have had the pleasure of teaching several children who seem to do well in all courses. I find these children who have higher than average exposure (接触) to art usually read and write better than their classmates. My conclusion is that their exposure to art affects other aspects of their learning. This leads me to a discussion with Aiko Cuneo, an artist who works with children in public schools. Here are some points where we agree.
We suggest that expand their definition of art. If you are a baker or a cook, if you like to arrange flowers, and if you enjoy the pleasant arrangement of objects in your home, you are an artist. These expressions of creativity are as valuable as those of painters and the other people we call artists. If you are a scientist and enjoy inventing and experimenting, you bring an artistic sensibility to your work and may include yourself in the definition of an artist.
Art is a delightful way through which you can record the development of your child’s growth. Just as you will notice that writing and reading improve with age, so does artwork. The role of parents and teachers is to expose children to a variety of materials so that they can create art. Once the variety is offered, children will then have a choice as to whether they want to use the materials or not. But without the exposure, there is no choice.
In a ten-year national study by Shirley Brice Heath of Stanford University, it was discovered that young people who are involved in art programs, in comparison with a national sample of students, were at least four times more likely to make achievements in the academic (学术的) programs, community service and other fields.
32. What does the author discover according to Paragraph 1
A. Teaching art is a meaningful job.
B. Most students have talent for art.
C. Art is beneficial to students’ learning.
D. Artists should be invited to teach children.
33. What can be inferred about art from Paragraph 2
A. Art expressions can be various.
B. Parents should focus more on art.
C. Few parents have a deep understanding of art.
D. Creativity should be developed at an early age.
34. According to Paragraph 3, parents are advised to ______.
A. record their children’s growth carefully
B. improve their children’s writing and reading by art
C. create an environment of art materials for children
D. notice the improvement of children’s writing and reading
35. What can be the best title for the text
A. The methods to help children understand art
B. The importance of art for children
C. The ways for parents to express art
D. The difficulties in art education
