Three Books for a More Honest View of Parents
Nowadays, it seems there are two ways to write about parenthood. I am heartily sick of both. This year I’ve decided to hug books that are inspiring and honest, yet do not avoid the pleasures of parenthood.
Life Among the Savages Shirley Jackson price:$15
Shirley Jackson, author of one of the most amazingly sinister novels of all time and of the short story The Lottery, also wrote two charming novels about raising her four children in an old farmhouse in rural Vermont. In Life Among the Savages, Jackson’s humor is as thrilling as her horror, and her children seem never to inspire in her anything worse than fond exasperation (恼怒).
A Blind Man Can See How Much I Love You Amy Bloom price:$13.95
A Blind Man Can See How Much I Love You contains one of the most absolute expressions of a mother’s love in fiction. Much of it takes place in the waiting room of a gender-reassignment surgeon. It’s about a woman who is determined to be the mother that her child needs her to be. In this collection ordinary women rise to the occasion demanded by motherhood. They make mistakes but they generally succeed in making up for them.
Family Man Calvin Trillin price:$18
In his memoir (回忆录) Family Man, Calvin Trillin writes with humor about his wife and daughters. He gives what I think is the single most useful piece of parenting advice “Getting advice on the best way to bring up children is like getting advice on the best way to breathe sooner or later you’re probably going to forget it and go back to your regular old in-and-out.” Trillin gives the impression of being the best kind of husband.
21.Which book tells a story of raising children in the countryside?( )
A.The Lottery. B.Family Man.
C.Life Among the Savages. D.A Blind Man Can See How Much I Love You.
22.What is Calvin Trillin’s Family Man all about?( )
A.A humorous mother. B.An operation.
C.Offering advice. D.Being a kind husband.
23.What do the three books have in common?( )
A.They share a theme. B.They target the same audience.
C.They were written by the same author. D.They were published in the same year.
B
When my daughter Sara was in the fifth grade, she came to me with a problem. “Marcy hates me!” she cried “Because Kathy is my friend, too. She wants me to be her friend and nobody else’s. You talk to Marcy. You tell her that I want to be her friend, but I can have other friends, too!”
Oh! I looked at her for a few moments, wondering how I got into this mess (困境), when suddenly an idea came to me.
Picking up two baskets from the living room, I explained, “When everyone is born, he or she has a little basket.This little one here is yours. The big one is mine. As you grow,so does the basket. You can see your little basket is inside mine because when you were born, there were too many things you couldn’t do for yourself. I did everything you couldn’t do on your own.”
She nodded.
“Well, as you grew older and began to do some things on your own, I began placing a few more things in your basket. When you learned to tie your shoes, that went in your basket.”
She said softly, “I can tie my own shoes.”
“Right. As you grow older, there will be more and more things you must do on your own.” As I spoke, I gradually took her basket out of mine and handed it to her. “You will finally carry your own basket with things only you can do.”
She looked up at me and said, “I understand. There are some things that I have to do by myself because they are in my basket.”
24.What did the author feel when she heard her daughter’s problem?( )
A.Angry. B.Happy.
C.Proud. D.Helpless.
25.What was Sara’s problem?( )
A.She didn’t have a basket. B.She couldn’t deal with her friendship.
C.She didn’t want her own basket. D.Her mother was too hard on her.
26.What did the baskets in the passage refer to?( )
A.The gifts given by God when everyone is born.
B.Something that people use to keep vegetables.
C.The growing abilities as you grow up.
D.The friendship that needs repairing.
27.What can we infer from the passage?( )
A.Sara would talk to Marcy herself.
B.Sara wouldn’t make friends with Kathy.
C.Sara was too young to deal with anything.
D.Sara managed to persuade her mother to help her.
C
Young adults often have a lot to learn in school. However, occasionally, the life skills needed for them to become successful outside of school aren’t learned. This may be why the years after high school can sometimes be the most uneasy and tense times for young adults.
Some may say that life skills are to be taught by their parents rather than school, but that’s not exactly true. Some students don’t have a parent figure to teach them the necessary knowledge needed. As a result, they rely on school to provide them with those. This is why related courses should be set up in high schools.
Over the course of history, students generally go to an educational institution of some sort to find themselves spending their entire time learning math and science, instead of what is required for real world — communication, which is through behaviors and manners. Manners are important when having a conversation with family, friends, teachers perhaps or even employers.High schools should find a way to teach manners as a way for students to have respect and be open-minded when it comes to other individuals.
In addition, how to deal with finances is one of the major life skills for students. For people, especially young people, to live in today’s financial environment, knowledge of personal finance is a must. For example, schools educating students about building credit scores and keeping up with a credit card is helpful. However, educational institutions do not spend a good amount of time talking about the topic of money managing: paying taxes, mortgage, bills, insurance, etc. It is time to extend financial knowledge by making personal finance a required course at high schools and universities.
With the essential instructions of communication and financial management provided to the young adults, they will be more successful in their future lives.
28.What does the underlined word “those” in Paragraph 2 refer to?( )
A.Life skills. B.Parent figures.
C.Subject courses. D.Adult experiences.
29.What does the author advise schools to teach students?( )
A.Skills of making money. B.The communication ability.
C.The history of their country. D.Ways to study math and science.
30.What can be inferred from Paragraph 4?( )
A.It is easy to survive in today’s financial environment.
B.Most of the students don’t need to build credit scores.
C.Students are lacking in instructions of financial management.
D.Educational institutions spend much time on money managing.
31.What is the best title for the text?( )
A.What Have Students Learned in School?
B.Why Should Parents Teach Kids Life Skills?
C.How Can Students Behave Well in Daily Life?
D.Why Should Life Skills Be Taught in School?
D
Who needs friends? According to most psychologists, we all do, especially nowadays when so many other aspects of modern life are changing. It seems that having friends keeps us both healthy and happy.
The number of TV series about groups of friends shows just how important friendship is to us. Psychologist Dorothy Rowe says that many of us now turn to our friends, instead of our families, for advice and comfort. One woman named Rebecca she interviewed even told her that if she had got to choose between her husband and her friend, she would choose her friend.
Since our friends mean so much to us, it is not surprising that the happiest marriages are also friendships. “Once the romantic stage of a relationship has passed, it is friendship that holds people together,” says Rowe. “If the couple do not make some changes, they will either get tired of each other and break up or stay together and look for friendship with others.”
For men, friendship is usually based on doing things together rather than the private conversations that are typical of women friends. Men share time and activities like building a business or playing football together, but they don’t often share their feelings. Although many women find their relationship with a husband or boyfriend is not enough, many men say that their partner is their best friend. Even women who are very happily married are likely to become very unhappy without a close friend and can even find the break-up of a close friendship as painful as the end of a marriage.
Lasting friendships can provide a lot of the same support that families provided in the past, but the perfect situation is to have your family there for you as well. Friendships and family relationships can both change, but a friend will not consider you when making really important decisions in the same way that a family member will.
32.The example of Rebecca in Paragraph 2 shows that some people think .( )
A.one friend is more than enough
B.friends are just like their family
C.friends matter more than family
D.friends make them more comfortable
33.What can we learn from the third paragraph?( )
A.Couples tend to be friends in a good marriage.
B.Couples will have new friendship after they get married.
C.Friendship helps couples build healthy relationships.
D.Friendship holds couples together when love has passed.
34.What is the main difference between men’s and women’s friendship?( )
A.Women often do things together with friends.
B.Men seldom talk to their friends about their feelings.
C.Women often talk about business with friends.
D.Men often talk to their friends about work and family.
35.What can be inferred from the last paragraph?( )
A.Friendship cannot replace family relationships.
B.Friendship can last longer than family relationships.
C.Friendship and family relationships are both changeable.
D.Family members help you make better decisions than friends do.

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。
Jenny was the only child in her family. She had a quarrel with her mother that afternoon and she ran out of the house angrily. She couldn’t help weeping sorrowfully when she thought of the scolding from her mother. Having wandered aimlessly in the street for hours, she felt a little hungry and wished for something to eat. She stood beside a stand (货摊) for a while, watching the middle-aged seller busy doing his business. However, with no money in hand, she gave a sigh and had to leave.
The seller behind the stand noticed the young girl and asked, “Hey, girl, you want to have the noodles?”
“Oh, yes, but I don’t have money on me,” she replied.
“That’s nothing. I’ll treat you today,” said the man, “Come in.”
The seller brought her a bowl of noodles, whose smell was so attractive. As she was eating, Jenny cried silently.
“What is it?” asked the man kindly.
“Nothing. Actually, I was just touched by your kindness!” said Jenny as she wiped her tears. “Even a stranger on the street will give me a bowl of noodles, while my mother drove me out of the house. She showed no care for me. She is so merciless compared to a stranger!”
Hearing the words, the seller smiled, “Girl, do you really think so? I only gave you a bowl of noodles and you thanked me a lot. But it is your mother who has raised you since you were a baby. Can you remember the times she cooked for you? Have you expressed your gratitude to her?”
Jenny sat there, speechless and numb with shock: she remembered her mother’s familiar face and weathered hands. “Why didn’t I think of that? A bowl of noodles from a stranger made me feel grateful. Why haven’t I thanked my mum for what she has done for me?”
On the way home, Jenny made up her mind to make an apology to her mother for her rudeness as soon as she arrived home.
注意:1.续写词数应为150左右;
2.请按如下格式作答。
Nearing the doorway, Jenny took a deep breath.
At that time, her mother came back and touched her hair gently, which called her mind back.

第二部分
语篇解读:本文是一篇应用文。文章介绍了三本关于父母之道的书籍。
21.C 细节理解题。根据Life Among the Savages部分中的Shirley Jackson, author of ...in rural Vermont.可知, Life Among the Savages讲述了雪莉·杰克逊在乡下抚养孩子的故事。

24.D 推理判断题。根据第二段内容可知,对于女儿的哭诉,作者一时不知道怎么办,感到无能为力。由此可推知,当作者听到女儿的问题时,她是感到无助的。
25.B 细节理解题。根据第一段内容可知,Sara遇到的问题是Marcy讨厌她,因为Marcy只想要Sara做她一个人的朋友,即Sara遇到的问题是不能合理地处理友谊(问题)。
26.C 推理判断题。根据倒数第二段可知,作者把一个孩子能独立做的事比喻成可放在篮子的东西。随着孩子的长大,自己能独立做的事就越来越多,篮子就越来越大。由此可推知,文章中提到的篮子指的是随着你的成长而增长的能力。

28.A 代词指代题。根据第二段第一、二句可知,有些人认为生活技能应该由父母而不是学校教授,但有些学生不能得到家长的教育。因此画线词所在句表示他们便会习惯性地依赖学校向他们传授那些生活技能。those指代上文提到的life skills。
29.B 细节理解题。根据第三段和最后一段内容可知,作者认为学校应该找到一种方法来教授礼仪,因为在现实生活中沟通能力很重要,因此作者是在建议学校教学生沟通能力。
30.C 推理判断题。根据第四段最后两句可知,在财务管理方面,教育机构为学生做得并不够,现在是时候通过将个人理财作为高中和大学的必修课程来扩展金融知识了。由此可以推断出,学生缺乏财务管理方面的指导。
31.D 标题归纳题。通读全文,尤其是根据第一段可知,学校向学生传授生活技能是很有必要的。再由最后一段可知,生活技能主要包括沟通能力的培养和财务管理的基本指导两方面,以使学生获得更大的成功。因此D项(为什么要在学校教授生活技能?)为文章的最佳标题。
语篇解读:本文是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了朋友的重要性。
32.C 推理判断题。根据第二段可知,许多人寻求建议和安慰时会选择朋友,而不是家人;Rebecca在选择丈夫和朋友的问题上会选择朋友。由此可推测出,有些人认为朋友比家人更重要。

36.G 空前一句提及了青少年的“叛逆期”,他们会与家人发生一些行为上的冲突。设空处应呼应上文,继续讲述叛逆期,且提及如何度过这一时期。G项中的hard times指“叛逆期”,并提出牢固的关系可以帮助青少年和他们的父母度过困难时期,且在逻辑上与上文构成转折。
37.E 根据段落主旨句Have meals together.可知,该段的核心是“一起吃饭”,空后两句具体解释了家人一起吃饭对于青少年的重要性或者意义。E项(这在繁忙的日程中可能很难做到,但这很重要)符合语境,且E项中的This呼应上文,且but后的句子是下文的总结,与下文构成解释关系。
38.A 设空处为该段主旨句。根据空后一句可知,随着青少年独立意识的发展,找时间交谈变得越来越困难,需找机会聊天。由此可知,A项(和你的孩子谈谈)符合该段主旨。
39.F 空后一句提到了其他人的做法,其他人可能通过心灵社区或在家里承担更多的责任而找到联系。F项中Some与空后的Others相呼应,并与下文构成并列关系,且F项中的this指代上文的their words and actions matter。
40.D 本段首句提到了“共度欢乐时光”。空前两句提到了青少年也不喜欢自己所爱的人只关注不该做的事情。因此设空处应讲他们喜欢什么。D项(一起放松能让他们感受到被爱和被重视)符合语境,D项中的Relaxing together呼应本段主题,且D项解释了青少年喜欢“被爱”和“被重视”。
第三部分
语篇解读:本文是一篇记叙文。Conrad因病不能参加体育运动,他的朋友Marcus一直用自己的行动鼓励和帮助他。
41.B 根据下文the state tournament every year可知,此处指Marcus每年都参加州锦标赛。
42.C 根据上下文的转折关系可知,Marcus的邻居Conrad也渴望参加比赛。
43.A 根据上文he has rheumatoid arthritis (类风湿性关节炎)可知,他却忍受着疼痛,走到运动场看比赛。
44.D 根据上文He loves watching his school compete可知,他喜欢看学校打比赛,所以他不会错过比赛。
45.C 根据上文Marcus has known Conrad since primary school.可推断,他们一直都是朋友。
46.B 根据上文他渴望参加比赛可知,他不能参加体育活动是悲伤的。
47.B 根据语境可知,Marcus会让他的同学们去Conrad家讨论比赛。
48.D 根据下文which makes Conrad forget the hurt可知,讨论应该很有趣。
49.A 根据语境可知,医生应该是找到新的治疗方法来减轻Conrad的疼痛。
50.D 根据语境可知,Conrad的疼痛得以缓解,然后他开始跑步,但他仍然需要学习跑步的技巧。
51.C 根据上文可知,Conrad患有类风湿性关节炎,走路时会感到疼痛,所以应该是走小步。
52.A 根据上文doing leg lifts repeatedly可知,他这样做是为了增强腿部力量。
53.C 根据上文Conrad渴望参加运动,但是因为类风湿性关节炎不能参加体育运动,而现在可以运动了,他应该开心,所以跑步不会让他感到痛苦。
54.D Conrad一次都没有赢,但Marcus总是兴奋地挥着双手为他欢呼。根据上下文的转折关系可知,Marcus应该是为Conrad欢呼。
55.A 根据语境可知,他应该是兴奋地挥手。
语篇解读:本文是一篇记叙文。作者的朋友们的来访打搅了作者一家的生活,于是他改变了来访规则,结果朋友们来的次数减少,这又让妻子不高兴,她想要改变规则,但作者不同意,事情陷入僵局。
fortably 考查词形转换。修饰动词accommodate应用副词作状语。故填comfortably。
57.included 考查非谓语动词。句中已有谓语动词,此处是非谓语动词,include与逻辑主语us之间是动宾关系,应用动词-ed形式,故填included。
58.theirs 考查名词所有格。根据句意可知,句中使用了双重所有格“限定词+名词+of+名词所有格/名词性物主代词”,表示“……的……”,应用名词性物主代词作宾语。故填theirs。
59.that 考查名词性从句。it是形式主语,设空处为主语从句,从句句意完整,成分齐全。故填that。
60.trying 考查非谓语动词。set about doing sth开始做某事。故填trying。
61.the 考查冠词。the number of ...“……的人数”。故填the。
62.at 考查介词。at the end of“在……的结尾”。故填at。
63.had happened 考查动词的时态。 “发生”这一动作发生在“进行讨论”之前,表示“过去的过去”应用过去完成时。故填had happened。
64.to change 考查非谓语动词。decide to do sth决定做某事。故填to change。
65.unhappy 考查词形转换。设空处作使役动词make的宾语补足语,用形容词,结合句意,应用其反义词unhappy。故填unhappy。
第四部分
第一节
Dear Mr Green,
The reason why I am writing to you is that I quarreled with my good friend Mike and I need your help now.
The quarrel occurred when we were discussing whether we should go shopping last weekend. Because of the coming examination, he insisted on studying at school while I opposed strongly. After the incident, we have not chatted any more, causing me great depression. I am sincerely sorry to see things going like this and I have been feeling frustrated ever since.
I really don’t want to lose such a good friend. Could you please offer me some effective and practical advice? Looking forward to your early reply.
Yours,
Li Hua
第二节
Nearing the doorway, Jenny took a deep breath. When she pushed the door open and entered the house, she found her mother was not in. Tired and sad, she sank down into the sofa. “Where could my mother be?” she wondered. “Was she still angry with me?” Again, the scene of the quarrel appeared in her mind. She remembered her rudeness to her mother. Realizing that all the scolding from her mother was due to the fact that her mother really cared a lot about her, she felt rather ashamed, tears rolling down her cheeks.
At that time, her mother came back and touched her hair gently, which called her mind back. She raised her head and saw the familiar face of her mother. “Here you come! I’ve been looking for you,” she said, fatigued but relieved. Jenny couldn’t help throwing herself into her mother’s arms. “Mum, I’m so sorry and thank you for all you have done for me.” she expressed her sincere apology and great gratitude. Hearing this, her mother smiled, patting her back gently. It dawned on Jenny that Mum’s love was invisible and intangible, but always surrounded us.

evening, many neighbours were at my house to congratulate us and
praise my brother for his hard work. My whole family all felt very
excited.

M:Yes. I’m very proud of him.
(Text 7)
M:Hi, Susan. How is everything?

do something for fun to relax this afternoon. Would you like to go to an art
exhibition?

book called Hiznobyuti.The book was written by Claude Ponti.It is about
a boy named Hiznobyuti.He is not good-looking.His parents and brothers

Hiznobyuti thinks it is his name.Wherever he goes, only embarrassment
and shame await him. Later, Hiznobyuti hides himself away, working
on his inventions, until one day he receives a message from the stars.
After a fight with his family, Hiznobyuti decides to run away.
During a beautiful adventure, he learns the secrets of the universe: how
to communicate with trees and birds, how to wake up the sun, and how
to see himself for who he truly is! When he returns from his journey,
Hiznobyuti’s family apologises for not understanding him. The book
costs $16.79.It is suitable for children aged from 5 to 9. Altogether there
are 35 pages. That’s all for tonight’s program. Thank you for your

Three Books for a More Honest View of Parents
Nowadays, it seems there are two ways to write about parenthood. I
am heartily sick of both. This year I’ve decided to hug books that are
inspiring and honest, yet do not avoid the pleasures of parenthood.
Life Among the Savages Shirley Jackson price:$15
Shirley Jackson, author of one of the most amazingly sinister novels
of all time and of the short story The Lottery, also wrote two charming
novels about raising her four children in an old farmhouse in rural
Vermont. In Life Among the Savages, Jackson’s humor is as thrilling as
her horror, and her children seem never to inspire in her anything worse
than fond exasperation (恼怒).
A Blind Man Can See How Much I Love You Amy Bloom
price:$13.95
A Blind Man Can See How Much I Love You contains one of the most
absolute expressions of a mother’s love in fiction. Much of it takes place
in the waiting room of a gender-reassignment surgeon. It’s about a
woman who is determined to be the mother that her child needs her to be.
In this collection ordinary women rise to the occasion demanded by
motherhood. They make mistakes but they generally succeed in making up
for them.
Family Man Calvin Trillin price:$18
In his memoir (回忆录) Family Man, Calvin Trillin writes with
humor about his wife and daughters. He gives what I think is the single
most useful piece of parenting advice “Getting advice on the best way to
bring up children is like getting advice on the best way to breathe sooner or
later you’re probably going to forget it and go back to your regular old in-
and-out.” Trillin gives the impression of being the best kind of husband.

22. What is Calvin Trillin’s Family Man all about?( )
A. A humorous mother.
B. An operation.
C. Offering advice.

When my daughter Sara was in the fifth grade, she came to me with
a problem. “Marcy hates me!” she cried “Because Kathy is my
friend, too. She wants me to be her friend and nobody else’s. You talk
to Marcy. You tell her that I want to be her friend, but I can have other
friends, too!”
Oh! I looked at her for a few moments, wondering how I got into
this mess (困境), when suddenly an idea came to me.
Picking up two baskets from the living room, I explained, “When
everyone is born, he or she has a little basket.This little one here is
yours. The big one is mine. As you grow,so does the basket. You can
see your little basket is inside mine because when you were born, there
were too many things you couldn’t do for yourself. I did everything you
couldn’t do on your own.”
She nodded.
“Well, as you grew older and began to do some things on your
own, I began placing a few more things in your basket. When you
learned to tie your shoes, that went in your basket.”
She said softly, “I can tie my own shoes.”
“Right. As you grow older, there will be more and more things
you must do on your own.” As I spoke, I gradually took her basket out
of mine and handed it to her. “You will finally carry your own basket
with things only you can do.”
She looked up at me and said, “I understand. There are some
things that I have to do by myself because they are in my basket.”

24. What did the author feel when she heard her daughter’s problem?
( )
A. Angry. B. Happy.
C. Proud. D. Helpless.
解析: 推理判断题。根据第二段内容可知,对于女儿的哭
诉,作者一时不知道怎么办,感到无能为力。由此可推知,当作
者听到女儿的问题时,她是感到无助的。
25. What was Sara’s problem?( )
A. She didn’t have a basket.
B. She couldn’t deal with her friendship.
C. She didn’t want her own basket.
D. Her mother was too hard on her.
解析:B 细节理解题。根据第一段内容可知,Sara遇到的问题是
Marcy讨厌她,因为Marcy只想要Sara做她一个人的朋友,即Sara
遇到的问题是不能合理地处理友谊(问题)。
26. What did the baskets in the passage refer to?( )
A. The gifts given by God when everyone is born.
B. Something that people use to keep vegetables.
C. The growing abilities as you grow up.

27. What can we infer from the passage?( )
A. Sara would talk to Marcy herself.
B. Sara wouldn’t make friends with Kathy.
C. Sara was too young to deal with anything.

Young adults often have a lot to learn in school. However,
occasionally, the life skills needed for them to become successful outside
of school aren’t learned. This may be why the years after high school can
sometimes be the most uneasy and tense times for young adults.
Some may say that life skills are to be taught by their parents rather
than school, but that’s not exactly true. Some students don’t have a
parent figure to teach them the necessary knowledge needed. As a result,
they rely on school to provide them with those. This is why related courses
should be set up in high schools.
Over the course of history, students generally go to an educational
institution of some sort to find themselves spending their entire time
learning math and science, instead of what is required for real world —
communication, which is through behaviors and manners. Manners are
important when having a conversation with family, friends, teachers
perhaps or even employers.High schools should find a way to teach
manners as a way for students to have respect and be open-minded when it
comes to other individuals.
In addition, how to deal with finances is one of the major life skills
for students. For people, especially young people, to live in today’s
financial environment, knowledge of personal finance is a must. For
example, schools educating students about building credit scores and
keeping up with a credit card is helpful. However, educational
institutions do not spend a good amount of time talking about the topic of
money managing: paying taxes, mortgage, bills, insurance, etc. It
is time to extend financial knowledge by making personal finance a
required course at high schools and universities.
With the essential instructions of communication and financial
management provided to the young adults, they will be more successful
in their future lives.

活技能的必要性,学校应向年轻人提供沟通和财务管理的基本指
导,使他们在未来的生活中获得更大的成功。
28. What does the underlined word “those” in Paragraph 2 refer to?
( )
A. Life skills. B. Parent figures.
C. Subject courses. D. Adult experiences.
解析: 代词指代题。根据第二段第一、二句可知,有些人认
为生活技能应该由父母而不是学校教授,但有些学生不能得到家
长的教育。因此画线词所在句表示他们便会习惯性地依赖学校向
他们传授那些生活技能。those指代上文提到的life skills。
29. What does the author advise schools to teach students?( )
A. Skills of making money.
B. The communication ability.
C. The history of their country.
D. Ways to study math and science.
解析: 细节理解题。根据第三段和最后一段内容可知,作者
认为学校应该找到一种方法来教授礼仪,因为在现实生活中沟通
能力很重要,因此作者是在建议学校教学生沟通能力。
30. What can be inferred from Paragraph 4?( )
A. It is easy to survive in today’s financial environment.
B. Most of the students don’t need to build credit scores.
C. Students are lacking in instructions of financial management.
D. Educational institutions spend much time on money managing.
解析: 推理判断题。根据第四段最后两句可知,在财务管理
方面,教育机构为学生做得并不够,现在是时候通过将个人理财
作为高中和大学的必修课程来扩展金融知识了。由此可以推断
出,学生缺乏财务管理方面的指导。
31. What is the best title for the text?( )
A. What Have Students Learned in School?
B. Why Should Parents Teach Kids Life Skills?
C. How Can Students Behave Well in Daily Life?
D. Why Should Life Skills Be Taught in School?
解析: 标题归纳题。通读全文,尤其是根据第一段可知,学
校向学生传授生活技能是很有必要的。再由最后一段可知,生活
技能主要包括沟通能力的培养和财务管理的基本指导两方面,以
使学生获得更大的成功。因此D项(为什么要在学校教授生活技
能?)为文章的最佳标题。
D
Who needs friends? According to most psychologists, we all do,
especially nowadays when so many other aspects of modern life are
changing. It seems that having friends keeps us both healthy and happy.
The number of TV series about groups of friends shows just how
important friendship is to us. Psychologist Dorothy Rowe says that many
of us now turn to our friends, instead of our families, for advice and
comfort. One woman named Rebecca she interviewed even told her that if
she had got to choose between her husband and her friend, she would
choose her friend.
Since our friends mean so much to us, it is not surprising that the
happiest marriages are also friendships. “Once the romantic stage of a
relationship has passed, it is friendship that holds people together,”
says Rowe. “If the couple do not make some changes, they will either
get tired of each other and break up or stay together and look for friendship
with others.”
For men, friendship is usually based on doing things together rather
than the private conversations that are typical of women friends. Men
share time and activities like building a business or playing football
together, but they don’t often share their feelings. Although many
women find their relationship with a husband or boyfriend is not enough,
many men say that their partner is their best friend. Even women who are
very happily married are likely to become very unhappy without a close
friend and can even find the break-up of a close friendship as painful as the
end of a marriage.
Lasting friendships can provide a lot of the same support that families
provided in the past, but the perfect situation is to have your family there
for you as well. Friendships and family relationships can both change,
but a friend will not consider you when making really important decisions
in the same way that a family member will.
语篇解读:本文是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了朋友的重要性。
语篇解读:本文是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了朋友的重要性。
32. The example of Rebecca in Paragraph 2 shows that some people
think .( )
A. one friend is more than enough
B. friends are just like their family
C. friends matter more than family
D. friends make them more comfortable
解析: 推理判断题。根据第二段可知,许多人寻求建议和安
慰时会选择朋友,而不是家人;Rebecca在选择丈夫和朋友的问题
上会选择朋友。由此可推测出,有些人认为朋友比家人更重要。
33. What can we learn from the third paragraph?( )
A. Couples tend to be friends in a good marriage.
B. Couples will have new friendship after they get married.
C. Friendship helps couples build healthy relationships.
D. Friendship holds couples together when love has passed.
解析: 推理判断题。根据第三段中Rowe说的话可推知,婚姻
中夫妻两人做彼此的朋友是婚姻长久之道。
34. What is the main difference between men’s and women’s
friendship?( )
A. Women often do things together with friends.
B. Men seldom talk to their friends about their feelings.
C. Women often talk about business with friends.
D. Men often talk to their friends about work and family.
解析: 细节理解题。根据第四段前两句可知,男性的友谊基
于共事,不太经常分享个人情感。
35. What can be inferred from the last paragraph?( )
A. Friendship cannot replace family relationships.
B. Friendship can last longer than family relationships.
C. Friendship and family relationships are both changeable.

outbursts (爆发) with their families during this period of life.36.
( ) Here are some ideas that may create positive experiences for
teens and parents.
Have meals together.Mealtime is when we check in with each
other.37.( ) Eating meals together offers a way for parents and
kids to share what is on their minds.It brings families closer by creating
trust and understanding to help guide children through the challenges of the
teen years.
38. ( ) As teens develop their own sense of independence, it
gets harder to find time to talk.Talk in the car together, when doing
dishes together, or any time you have a chance.Remember that no matter
how big their problems seem, what most teens want is love and
support.Help them connect with their families and communities.During
these years, help teens learn that their words and actions matter.39.
( ) Others may find connection through spiritual communities or
from having more responsibilities at home.Connecting with families and
communities also helps keep teens safe from riskier activities.

chess?Going to the ballet?Volunteering in your community?Take time
to have fun and enjoy each other’s company.No one wants the attention
of people they love to be focused only on what not to do.This is true for
teenagers, too.40.( )

语篇解读:本文是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了牢固的亲子关系可
以帮助青少年顺利度过叛逆期,并提出一些可以为青少年和父母创
造积极体验的建议。
36. G 空前一句提及了青少年的“叛逆期”,他们会与家人发生一
些行为上的冲突。设空处应呼应上文,继续讲述叛逆期,且提及如何
度过这一时期。G项中的hard times指“叛逆期”,并提出牢固的关系
可以帮助青少年和他们的父母度过困难时期,且在逻辑上与上文构成
转折。
37. E 根据段落主旨句Have meals together.可知,该段的核心是“一
起吃饭”,空后两句具体解释了家人一起吃饭对于青少年的重要性或
者意义。E项(这在繁忙的日程中可能很难做到,但这很重要)符合
语境,且E项中的This呼应上文,且but后的句子是下文的总结,与下
文构成解释关系。
38. A 设空处为该段主旨句。根据空后一句可知,随着青少年独立
意识的发展,找时间交谈变得越来越困难,需找机会聊天。由此可
知,A项(和你的孩子谈谈)符合该段主旨。
39. F 空后一句提到了其他人的做法,其他人可能通过心灵社区或在
家里承担更多的责任而找到联系。F项中Some与空后的Others相呼
应,并与下文构成并列关系,且F项中的this指代上文的their words and
actions matter。
40. D 本段首句提到了“共度欢乐时光”。空前两句提到了青少年
也不喜欢自己所爱的人只关注不该做的事情。因此设空处应讲他们喜
欢什么。D项(一起放松能让他们感受到被爱和被重视)符合语境,
D项中的Relaxing together呼应本段主题,且D项解释了青少年喜欢
“被爱”和“被重视”。

Dear Mr Green,
The reason why I am writing to you is that I quarreled with my good
friend Mike and I need your help now.
The quarrel occurred when we were discussing whether we should go
shopping last weekend. Because of the coming examination, he insisted
on studying at school while I opposed strongly. After the incident, we
have not chatted any more, causing me great depression. I am sincerely
sorry to see things going like this and I have been feeling frustrated ever
since.
I really don’t want to lose such a good friend. Could you please
offer me some effective and practical advice? Looking forward to your
early reply.
Yours,
Li Hua
第二节(满分25分)
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。
Jenny was the only child in her family. She had a quarrel with her
mother that afternoon and she ran out of the house angrily. She couldn’t
help weeping sorrowfully when she thought of the scolding from her
mother. Having wandered aimlessly in the street for hours, she felt a
little hungry and wished for something to eat. She stood beside a stand
(货摊) for a while, watching the middle-aged seller busy doing his
business. However, with no money in hand, she gave a sigh and had to
leave.
The seller behind the stand noticed the young girl and asked,
“Hey, girl, you want to have the noodles?”
“Oh, yes, but I don’t have money on me,” she replied.
“That’s nothing. I’ll treat you today,” said the man,
“Come in.”
The seller brought her a bowl of noodles, whose smell was so
attractive. As she was eating, Jenny cried silently.
“What is it?” asked the man kindly.
“Nothing. Actually, I was just touched by your kindness!” said
Jenny as she wiped her tears. “Even a stranger on the street will give me
a bowl of noodles, while my mother drove me out of the house. She
showed no care for me. She is so merciless compared to a stranger!”
Hearing the words, the seller smiled, “Girl, do you really think
so? I only gave you a bowl of noodles and you thanked me a lot. But it is
your mother who has raised you since you were a baby. Can you
remember the times she cooked for you? Have you expressed your
gratitude to her?”
Jenny sat there, speechless and numb with shock: she remembered
her mother’s familiar face and weathered hands. “Why didn’t I think
of that? A bowl of noodles from a stranger made me feel grateful. Why
haven’t I thanked my mum for what she has done for me?”
On the way home, Jenny made up her mind to make an apology to
her mother for her rudeness as soon as she arrived home.
注意:1.续写词数应为150左右;
2. 请按如下格式作答。
Nearing the doorway, Jenny took a deep breath.
At that time, her mother came back and touched her hair
gently, which called her mind back.
参考范文:
Nearing the doorway, Jenny took a deep breath. When she pushed
the door open and entered the house, she found her mother was not in.
Tired and sad, she sank down into the sofa. “Where could my mother
be?” she wondered. “Was she still angry with me?” Again, the
scene of the quarrel appeared in her mind. She remembered her rudeness
to her mother. Realizing that all the scolding from her mother was due to
the fact that her mother really cared a lot about her, she felt rather
ashamed, tears rolling down her cheeks.
At that time, her mother came back and touched her hair gently,
which called her mind back. She raised her head and saw the familiar face
of her mother. “Here you come! I’ve been looking for you,” she
said, fatigued but relieved. Jenny couldn’t help throwing herself into
her mother’s arms. “Mum, I’m so sorry and thank you for all you
have done for me.” she expressed her sincere apology and great
gratitude. Hearing this, her mother smiled, patting her back gently. It
dawned on Jenny that Mum’s love was invisible and intangible, but
always surrounded us.
谢谢观看!
