Ⅰ.阅读理解
A
A man came home from work late to find his 5-year-old son waiting for him at the door.
“Daddy， may I ask you a question？”
“Yeah sure， what is it？” replied the man.
“Daddy， how much do you make an hour？”
“If you must know， I make $20 an hour.”
Looking up， the little boy asked， “Daddy， may I please borrow $10？”
The father was angry， “If the only reason why you asked that is that you can borrow some money to buy a silly toy or some other nonsense， then you march yourself straight to your room and go to bed.Think about why you are being so selfish.I work hard every day for such childish behavior？”
The little boy quietly went to his room and shut the door.The man sat down and started to get even angrier about the little boy’s questions.“How dare he ask such questions only to get some money？”
After about an hour or so， the man had calmed down and started to think： “Maybe there was something he really needed to buy with that $10 because he really didn’t ask for money very often.”
The man went to the door of the little boy’s room and opened the door.“Are you asleep， son？” He asked.“No， Daddy， I’m awake，” replied the boy.
“I’ve been thinking， maybe I was too strict with you earlier，” said the man.“It’s been a long day and I took out my bad feelings on you.Here’s the $10 you asked for.” The little boy sat straight up， smiling， “Oh， thank you， Daddy！” Then， reaching under his pillow he pulled out some crumpled （褶皱的） bills.
The man， seeing that the boy already had money， started to get angry again.The little boy slowly counted out his money， then looked up at his father.“Why do you want more money if you already have some？” the father complained.“Because I didn’t have enough， but now I do，” the little boy replied.“Daddy， I have $20 now.Can I buy an hour of your time？ Please come home early tomorrow.I would like to have dinner with you.”
1.Why was the father angry at first？

C.Because his son wanted to buy a silly toy. D.Because his son asked for too much money.
2.Why did the father go to his son’s room？
A.To offer his son more money. B.To check if his son was asleep.
C.To make an apology for his strictness. D.To take out his bad feelings on his son.
3.What made the father angry again in the last paragraph？
A.That his son owed him money. B.That his son had owned money.

The landscape of parents staying at home is changing， challenging old ideas about who takes care of the children.While moms usually did this in the past， a recent study by Pew Research Center shows more dads are staying at home.Over the last 30 years， the number of dads staying at home has gone up from 11% in 1989 to 18% in 2021.
Economics is the most significant part of this change.As women do better in school — with 53.1% of adults with a bachelor’s degree being women and get better jobs， families are thinking about different ways to share responsibilities.Women are getting better paying jobs， like in medicine and law， making some families decide that having the dad at home and the mom as the main earner is the best choice.Chris Braaten from California knew his wife， with a higher degree， could earn more， so he happily stayed at home.
The wish for one parent to stay at home often matches what both partners want.Many dads， not happy with their jobs， find more joy in taking care of their children.Spending meaningful time with family and feeling satisfied often matter more than staying in the workforce.
The high cost of childcare is also making parents think differently.Childcare can be very expensive， ranging from $4，810 to over $15，000 per child each year.This leads some families to consider new ways， like having the dad stay home， to handle these costs.
Cannon Ingalls and Jeff Carlson show this too.Ingalls， moving from Missouri to Minneapolis， chose his wife’s better-paying job over his own.Carlson in Colorado found that most of his salary was going to childcare， so he decided to stay at home to avoid money stress.
As the idea of parents staying at home continues to change， economic factors， along with new thoughts about gender （性别） roles and a wish for more meaningful family time， are making more dads choose to stay at home.
5.How is Paragraph 1 mainly developed？
A.By sharing stories of dads staying at home.
B.By presenting data over the past three decades.
C.By comparing the income of different families.
D.By stressing the benefits of women’s education.
6.What mainly contributes to more stay-at-home dads？
A.Social expectations in today’s society.
B.Fathers being dissatisfied with their jobs.
C.Changing preferences in family structures.
D.Changes in women’s education and economic roles.
7.Why are Cannon Ingalls and Jeff Carlson mentioned in the text？
A.To serve as typical examples. B.To show their close relationship.
C.To show their different personalities. D.To provide some background information.
8.What is a suitable title for the text？
A.The Decline of Traditional Gender Roles B.The Growing Trend of Stay-at-Home Dads
C.The Challenges Faced by Working Mothers D.The Effects of Traditional Parenting Methods
C
Josie， who is 17 years old， said， “Why do my parents do the same things they tell me not to do？ For example， my mum stops me from shouting through the walls and asks me to go and speak to her face-to-face， but she always shouts through the walls to me.What can I do？”
That is a very good point.Parents can be completely inconsistent （不一致）， and usually they don’t realize it.You see this a lot in many things like smartphones.Parents always say to their kids， “Oh， you can’t use that.That device （设备） is bad for you， so stop using it at the table.It’s harmful.” But then they are on theirs continually.So what do you expect teenagers to do？
The whole “Do as I say， not as I do” thing is an annoyance， especially for a teenager who is dying for independence and respect but isn’t getting them.
What can teenagers do with it？ I would say you should point it out by calmly saying something like “You tell me not to scream through the walls， but you do it to me， so you can understand where I’m coming from.That’s not ideal.” They might object to it， but I think most parents who care about being parents would logically say， “That’s a reasonable point.”
There are a lot of conflicts （矛盾） going on between teenagers and their parents， but a lot of studies show that the conflicts are resolved a lot more when they turn into a dialogue.
If you can talk at a time when you’re both feeling a bit calmer， like just in the kitchen or doing something unimportant， then go in and say， “Can I just mention it？ You tell me not to do this， but you do it too.” If you can approach it in a more calm and stress-free manner， most parents will respond positively.
9.How did Josie feel according to her words in Paragraph 1？
A.Hopeful. B.Bored.
C.Proud. D.Confused.
10.What does the underlined word “theirs” in Paragraph 2 refer to？
A.The parents’ smartphones.
B.The tables in the house.
C.The devices in the house.
D.The teenagers’ points.
11.What should teenagers do with their parents’ inconsistency？
A.Object to it personally.
B.Complain of it continually.
C.Talk with their parents calmly.
D.Do some studies differently.
12.What is the author’s purpose in writing the last paragraph？
A.To list a fact.
B.To offer a suggestion.
C.To show a result.
D.To ask a new question.
Ⅱ.阅读七选五
Where did your family eat dinner last night？ In the car on the way to sport？ At McDonald’s？ Or at the dinner table？ A survey taken a few years ago found that 28% families ate dinner together at home seven nights a week.Another quarter said they ate together three or fewer nights a week.
Once upon a time the situation was different. 13 Plates， forks and spoons would be laid out.As dinner time approached， an increasing number of hungry mouths would begin to appear with the question， “What’s for dinner？”
14 The data seems to point to two main issues： overworked parents and over-scheduled children.When Mum or Dad do get home in the evening， they are soon in the car again to send the children to soccer， music， tutoring， and a host of other events.
This nightly ceremony around the dinner table is both vital and fruitful； it is what keeps a family together.Sure， the conversation is not always significant and children argue.And sometimes the deepest and most meaningful times in a family are not at the table at all. 15 The dinner table is the place where a family builds an identity.Stories are passed down， jokes are exchanged and the wider world is examined through the lens（镜头） of a family’s values.Children pick up vocabulary and a sense of how conversation is structured. 16 Dinner time is “family ing back daily to the same place helps gain familiarity.
The significance of dinner time is more than above.Studies show that the more families eat together， the less likely the children are to smoke， drink， get depressed， and develop eating disorders， and the more likely they are to do well in school and learn how to socialize.One professor at Rutgers University in New Jersey stated， “A meal is about civilizing children. 17 ”
So start by planning some stay-at-home family dinners together.Just family talk.
A.It’s a time to teach them to be a member of their culture.
B.Each night the dining table would be set with a simple cloth.
C.Why not cut back on a few activities and have dinner with your family？
D.What accounts for this decline in families eating together today though？
E.They also learn good table manners， something that will benefit them for life.
F.It was important for children and parents to sit down together and get to know each other.
G.However， there is still something unique about the time a family spends around the dinner table.

Ⅰ.
语篇解读：本文是一篇记叙文。文章通过讲述一个小故事说明了家庭关系中沟通的重要性。父亲意识到儿子对家庭时间的重视，认识到儿子需要更多陪伴和关注。
1.A 推理判断题。根据第七段和最后一段内容可知，父亲起初生气是因为他误解了儿子。
2.C 细节理解题。根据第九段中的Maybe there was something he really needed to buy with that $10 because he really didn’t ask for money very often.可知，父亲去儿子的房间是想要为他的严厉道歉。
3.B 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段最后一句和最后一段第一句可知，父亲又生气的原因是看到儿子已经有了一些钱却还和自己要钱。
4.C 推理判断题。根据最后一段中小男孩的回答可知，父亲知道真相后会因为对儿子发脾气而感到后悔。
语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了全职爸爸的变化趋势，并探讨了背后的原因以及一些家庭的选择。
5.B 推理判断题。根据第一段中的Over the last 30 years， the number of dads staying at home has gone up from 11% in 1989 to 18% in 2021.可知，第一段主要通过提供过去三十年的全职爸爸所占比例的数据，说明越来越多的父亲留在家中的情况。
6.D 推理判断题。根据第二段内容可知，随着女性在教育和经济领域的表现变得更好，一些家庭考虑了不同的责任分享方式，这导致了越来越多的父亲留在家中。
7.A 推理判断题。根据倒数第二段内容可知，Cannon Ingalls因为妻子薪水更高而选择放弃自己的工作留在家中，Cannon Ingalls是因为大部分工资都花在了儿童保育上而决定留在家里，以避免金钱压力。由此可知，文章中提到这两个人是作为典型的例子，说明一些父亲选择留在家中的原因。
8.B 标题归纳题。通读全文可知，文章介绍了全职爸爸的变化趋势，并探讨了背后的原因以及一些家庭的选择。因此B项（全职爸爸的增长趋势）能够概括文章主旨，是一个合适的标题。
语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了父母在教育青少年时言行不一的问题，此时青少年应该冷静地和父母沟通。
9.D 推理判断题。根据第一段中的Why do my parents do the same things they tell me not to do？可推断，Josie感到很困惑。
10.A 代词指代题。根据画线词上文可知，父母总是对孩子说手机有害，不要使用，而他们自己却一直在用自己的手机。由此可知，theirs指的是父母的手机。
11.C 细节理解题。根据第四段中的I would say you should point it out by calmly saying something like ...可知，面对父母教育自己时言行不一的问题，青少年应该冷静地和父母沟通。
12.B 推理判断题。根据最后一段内容可推知，作者在最后一段就面对父母教育自己时言行不一的问题，提出了一些建议。
Ⅱ.
语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文。研究表明，全家共享晚餐的机会越多，孩子吸烟、喝酒、抑郁和饮食失调的可能性就越小，他们在学校表现越好，越了解如何社交。
13.B 根据空前一句可知，从前与第一段描述的情况不同，此处应该描写从前的场景：每天晚上，餐桌上都会铺上简单的桌布，盘子、刀叉、勺子都会井然摆开。故B项符合语境。
14.D 根据空后一句可知，D项（然而，是什么导致了今天家庭聚餐的减少呢？）符合语境，下文是对D项的回答。
15.G 根据空前一句可知，有时，家庭中最深刻、最有意义的时刻根本不在餐桌上。而空后一句说到餐桌的重要性，因此此处应为转折的意思，G项（然而，一家人围坐在一起吃晚饭的时刻仍有其独特之处）符合语境。
16.E 空前一句提到了在餐桌上孩子们牙牙学语，E项（他们同时也能学会好的餐桌礼仪，那是让他们受益终生的东西）符合语境，与空前一句为递进关系。
17.A 根据空前一句可知，一家人共进晚餐对教化孩子意义重大，这是教育孩子传承家庭文化的机会。故A项符合语境。

祖父：嗯……我赢了！
（儿子走进房间。）
父亲：怎么又输了！哟，我儿子来了。最近怎么样啊，儿子？

父亲：当然！你随时都可以找你老爸聊天啊。

儿子：的确，但我对法律不感兴趣。我想在录音棚里工作，不想在法院工作。
祖父：（看着父亲）先冷静一下，好吗？

A
A man came home from work late to find his 5-year-old son waiting
for him at the door.
“Daddy， may I ask you a question？”
“Yeah sure， what is it？” replied the man.
“Daddy， how much do you make an hour？”
“If you must know， I make $20 an hour.”
Looking up， the little boy asked， “Daddy， may I please borrow
$10？”
The father was angry， “If the only reason why you asked that is
that you can borrow some money to buy a silly toy or some other
nonsense， then you march yourself straight to your room and go to
bed.Think about why you are being so selfish.I work hard every day for
such childish behavior？”
The little boy quietly went to his room and shut the door.The man sat
down and started to get even angrier about the little boy’s
questions.“How dare he ask such questions only to get some money？”
After about an hour or so， the man had calmed down and started to
think： “Maybe there was something he really needed to buy with that
$10 because he really didn’t ask for money very often.”
The man went to the door of the little boy’s room and opened the
door.“Are you asleep， son？” He asked.“No， Daddy， I’m
awake，” replied the boy.
“I’ve been thinking， maybe I was too strict with you earlier，”
said the man.“It’s been a long day and I took out my bad feelings on
you.Here’s the $10 you asked for.” The little boy sat straight up，
smiling， “Oh， thank you， Daddy！” Then， reaching under his
pillow he pulled out some crumpled （褶皱的） bills.
The man， seeing that the boy already had money， started to get
angry again.The little boy slowly counted out his money， then looked up
at his father.“Why do you want more money if you already have
some？” the father complained.“Because I didn’t have enough， but
now I do，” the little boy replied.“Daddy， I have $20 now.Can I buy
an hour of your time？ Please come home early tomorrow.I would like to
have dinner with you.”

The landscape of parents staying at home is changing， challenging
old ideas about who takes care of the children.While moms usually did
this in the past， a recent study by Pew Research Center shows more dads
are staying at home.Over the last 30 years， the number of dads staying at
home has gone up from 11% in 1989 to 18% in 2021.
Economics is the most significant part of this change.As women do
better in school — with 53.1% of adults with a bachelor’s degree being
women and get better jobs， families are thinking about different ways to
share responsibilities.Women are getting better paying jobs， like in
medicine and law， making some families decide that having the dad at
home and the mom as the main earner is the best choice.Chris Braaten
from California knew his wife， with a higher degree， could earn
more， so he happily stayed at home.
The wish for one parent to stay at home often matches what both
partners want.Many dads， not happy with their jobs， find more joy in
taking care of their children.Spending meaningful time with family and
feeling satisfied often matter more than staying in the workforce.
The high cost of childcare is also making parents think
differently.Childcare can be very expensive， ranging from $4，810 to
over $15，000 per child each year.This leads some families to consider
new ways， like having the dad stay home， to handle these costs.
Cannon Ingalls and Jeff Carlson show this too.Ingalls， moving from
Missouri to Minneapolis， chose his wife’s better-paying job over his
own.Carlson in Colorado found that most of his salary was going to
childcare， so he decided to stay at home to avoid money stress.
As the idea of parents staying at home continues to change，
economic factors， along with new thoughts about gender （性别） roles
and a wish for more meaningful family time， are making more dads
choose to stay at home.

C
Josie， who is 17 years old， said， “Why do my parents do the
same things they tell me not to do？ For example， my mum stops me
from shouting through the walls and asks me to go and speak to her face-
to-face， but she always shouts through the walls to me.What can I
do？”
That is a very good point.Parents can be completely inconsistent
（不一致）， and usually they don’t realize it.You see this a lot in
many things like smartphones.Parents always say to their kids， “Oh，
you can’t use that.That device （设备） is bad for you， so stop using it
at the table.It’s harmful.” But then they are on theirs continually.So
what do you expect teenagers to do？
The whole “Do as I say， not as I do” thing is an annoyance，
especially for a teenager who is dying for independence and respect but
isn’t getting them.
What can teenagers do with it？ I would say you should point it out
by calmly saying something like “You tell me not to scream through the
walls， but you do it to me， so you can understand where I’m coming
from.That’s not ideal.” They might object to it， but I think most
parents who care about being parents would logically say， “That’s a
reasonable point.”
There are a lot of conflicts （矛盾） going on between teenagers and
their parents， but a lot of studies show that the conflicts are resolved a lot
more when they turn into a dialogue.
If you can talk at a time when you’re both feeling a bit calmer， like
just in the kitchen or doing something unimportant， then go in and say，
“Can I just mention it？ You tell me not to do this， but you do it too.”
If you can approach it in a more calm and stress-free manner， most
parents will respond positively.

Ⅱ.阅读七选五
Where did your family eat dinner last night？ In the car on the way to
sport？ At McDonald’s？ Or at the dinner table？ A survey taken a few
years ago found that 28% families ate dinner together at home seven nights
a week.Another quarter said they ate together three or fewer nights a
week.
Once upon a time the situation was different. 13 Plates， forks
and spoons would be laid out.As dinner time approached， an increasing
number of hungry mouths would begin to appear with the question，
“What’s for dinner？”
14 The data seems to point to two main issues： overworked
parents and over-scheduled children.When Mum or Dad do get home in
the evening， they are soon in the car again to send the children to
soccer， music， tutoring， and a host of other events.
This nightly ceremony around the dinner table is both vital and
fruitful； it is what keeps a family together.Sure， the conversation is not
always significant and children argue.And sometimes the deepest and
most meaningful times in a family are not at the table at all. 15 The
dinner table is the place where a family builds an identity.Stories are
passed down， jokes are exchanged and the wider world is examined
through the lens（镜头） of a family’s values.Children pick up
vocabulary and a sense of how conversation is structured. 16 Dinner
time is “family ing back daily to the same place helps gain
familiarity.
The significance of dinner time is more than above.Studies show that
the more families eat together， the less likely the children are to smoke，
drink， get depressed， and develop eating disorders， and the more
likely they are to do well in school and learn how to socialize.One
professor at Rutgers University in New Jersey stated， “A meal is about
civilizing children. 17 ”
So start by planning some stay-at-home family dinners together.Just
family talk.
A. It’s a time to teach them to be a member of their culture.
B. Each night the dining table would be set with a simple cloth.
C. Why not cut back on a few activities and have dinner with your
family？
D. What accounts for this decline in families eating together today
though？
E. They also learn good table manners， something that will benefit them
for life.
F. It was important for children and parents to sit down together and get to
know each other.
G. However， there is still something unique about the time a family
spends around the dinner table.

13. B 根据空前一句可知，从前与第一段描述的情况不同，此处应
该描写从前的场景：每天晚上，餐桌上都会铺上简单的桌布，盘子、
刀叉、勺子都会井然摆开。故B项符合语境。
14. D 根据空后一句可知，D项（然而，是什么导致了今天家庭聚餐
的减少呢？）符合语境，下文是对D项的回答。
15. G 根据空前一句可知，有时，家庭中最深刻、最有意义的时刻
根本不在餐桌上。而空后一句说到餐桌的重要性，因此此处应为转折
的意思，G项（然而，一家人围坐在一起吃晚饭的时刻仍有其独特之
处）符合语境。
16. E 空前一句提到了在餐桌上孩子们牙牙学语，E项（他们同时也
能学会好的餐桌礼仪，那是让他们受益终生的东西）符合语境，与空
前一句为递进关系。
17. A 根据空前一句可知，一家人共进晚餐对教化孩子意义重大，
这是教育孩子传承家庭文化的机会。故A项符合语境。
谢谢观看！
