[语篇解读]本文是一篇议论文。询问孩子长大之后想成为什么对孩子有害。文章论述了三方面的害处。作者建议,邀请孩子想想他们可能想做的其他事情。
1.B 根据下文中的“Adults always seemed terribly disappointed that I wasn’t becoming something grand or ,like an astronaut.” 可知,成年人对作者的回答总是感到失望。所以作者很害怕被问到这个问题。他的回答让成年人不满意。故选B项。

7.C 根据上文“If we define ourselves by our jobs”可以推知,如果我们用工作来定义自己,那么我们在工作中取得的成就决定了我们的个人价值。工作好,成就高,个人价值就高。反之,工作不好,成就低,个人价值就低。故选C项。

9.D 根据上文“it kids to define themselves in terms of work.If we define ourselves by our jobs,our depends on what we achieve”可知,当用工作来定义一个人的时候,个人价值取决于个人成就。所以,诸如“成为一个父亲”“成为一个母亲”或“成为一个正直的人”这样和工作毫无关系的回答显然是不符合期望,不被接受的。故选D项。
10.D 结合上文中的“My first complaint about the question”和下文中的“If you manage to the above barriers,there is a third hurdle”可知,第二、三、四段探讨的都是问孩子长大后要成为什么人产生的害处。因此,该空应该选择一个贬义词,表示询问孩子这个问题所产生的问题或害处。故选D项。
11.B 根据下文中的“not everyone has that talent for jobs”可知,对伟大使命的寻求会让学生感到迷惑。故选B项。
12.D 该空和lost并列,意思应该和lost接近。结合上题解析可知,对伟大使命的寻求让学生迷失和困惑。故选D项。
13.A 根据上文“Adults always seemed terribly disappointed that I wasn’t becoming something grand or ,like an astronaut.” 可知,并不是人人都有做伟大工作的天分。故选A项。
14.D 根据空前的“manage to”和后面的“there is a third hurdle”可知,该处应该指即使你可以克服前面提到的两个障碍,还有一个障碍你无法克服。故选D项。
15.C 根据上文提到的问题“What do you want to be when you grow up ”可知,孩子们小时候经常被问到自己长大后的理想。但是长大之后做的职业很难实现童年的理想,即童年的雄心壮志。故选C项。
16.A 根据后面的“left college seniors feeling more anxious and less satisfied”可知,大四学生都想找一份理想的工作。但是找理想的工作不容易,所以他们焦虑、不满意。故选A项。
17.B 根据上文的“Careers rarely live up to your childhood .”可知,大四学生找不到理想工作,无法实现童年的梦想,学生们对这样的结果感到焦虑、不满意。故选B项。
18.D 根据上文中的“happiness is reality minus expectations”可知,现实总是和期望有差距。因此,期望值过高,实现不了,就会影响幸福感。故选D项。
19.A 结合上一题的解析以及“If you are looking for extreme happiness”可知,期望会影响幸福感。极度的幸福是不可能实现的。由此推知,如果你寻找极度的幸福,那么你肯定实现不了,你肯定会失望。故选A项。
20.B 上文介绍了问“孩子他们想成为什么”这个问题所产生的三方面危害。由此推知,问孩子这个问题会导致孩子获得一种他们可能永远都不想获得的职业身份。该空和后面的earn一致。故选B项。
