It's
time

Here

Josephine

Josephine
is
a
kangaroo
who
loves
to
dance.
Her
little
brother,
Joey,
tells

don't
dance;
they
jump.
But
Josephine
continues
to
point
her
toes
and
leap
through
the
air.
When
a
ballet
group
comes
to
town
and
the
lead
ballerina
(芭蕾舞演员)
is
injured,
Josephine
is
called
upon
to
help
save
the
day.
Can
she
do
it,
and,
more
importantly,
does
it
matter
that
she's
a
kangaroo?

is
still
alive
and
planning
an
attack.
To
defeat
her,
the
Walkers
must
return

the
book
world.The
Walkers
always
help
each
other,
but
they
must
do
it
alone
in
their

yet.
And

there's
no
chance
of
coming
back.
Edge

Dinosaurs,
you
will
love
this
book.
Two

suddenly
disappeared
five
years
ago.
Along
with

world
of
dinosaurs—to
look
for
him.
Then

has
been
a
lie.

B
Inspired
by
a
9－year－old
cyclist,
Lauren
Turner,
who
can
only
use
one
hand,
a
group
of
University
of
Guelph
students
has
won
an
international
award
for
their
invention—a
bike
brake
lever
(刹车手柄)
that
pulls
both
the
front
brake
and
the
back
brake
at
the
same
time.
Lauren
Turner
was
able
to
ride
her
bike,
but
not
as
confidently
and
quickly
as
her
friends.
“She
couldn't
use
the
front
brake.
She
only
used
the
back
brake,
but
the
front
brake
makes
you
stop
twice
as
fast，”
says
Micha
Wallace,
who,
with
Katie
Bell,
Anina
Sakaguchi
and
Andrew
Morries
won
second
prize
in
the
James
Dyson
Award
for
their
single－handed
bike
brake
lever.
“Lauren
Turner
tried
the
device
(装置)
first
and
she
used
it
all
last
summer.
She
had
no
problems.
It
helped
her
go
faster
because
she
felt
more
confident
in
her
braking
abilities.
She
felt
safer，”
says
Wallace.
The
invention
was
the
fourth－year
design
project
for
the
four
students.
They
designed,
tested
and
created
a
prototype
(模型)
within
a
four－month
period.
When
Wallace
heard
about
the
James
Dyson
Award
on
the
news,
she
and
her
co－inventors
entered
their
project
in
the
UK－based
contest,
which
rewards
students
designers
who
create
products
that
improve
the
way
we
live.
The
students
collected
the_runner－up_prize—￡2,000
for
them
and
￡500
for
their
school.
As
well,
they
had
a
chance
to
meet
James
Dyson,
a
UK
famous
inventor.
Praising
the
students
for
their
invention,
Dyson
says
the
single－handed
brake
lever
could
improve
safety
for
all
cyclists.
By
using
both
brakes
at
once,
you
could
prevent
the
possibility
of
flying
over
the
handlebars
and
ending
up
with
an
injury.
The
students
hope
to
sell
it
to
a
major
company.
It
may
be
used
in
other
devices
that
require
two
hands
for
operation.
本文属于新闻，主要讲述一群大学生发明了一种可同时操控自行车前刹和后刹的装置，并且获得了一项国际性的大奖，并且该发明的市场前景广阔。

C
I'm
a
real
book
lover.
Every
time
my
friends
visit
me,
my
nose
is
buried
in
a
book.
Wherever
I
go,
I
always
have
a
book
with
me.
Novels,
history
books,
stories
about
people,
journals
and
news—I
read
them
all
and
I've
learnt
a
lot,
too.
For
example,
many
things
in
life
happen
for
the
best
even
if
we
don't
like
or
understand
them.
Why
is
reading
such
an
enjoyable
pastime
for
me?
I
probably
first
learned
about
it
from
my
parents.
My
mother
read
to
me
at
night
in
my
childhood
and
bought
me
picture
books.
The
greatest
gift
she
has
given
me
is
a
love
for
reading.
And
it
will
be
a
life?long
habit.
No
one
ever
asked
me
why
I
liked
to
read.
They
just
saw
me
and
asked,
“Oh?
Is
that
for
school
work？”
And
I
just
shook
my
head,
“No.
It's
just
for
fun.”
While
reading
a
good
book,
I
can
totally
forget
myself
and
fly
to
another
world.
It's
like
exploring
through
someone's
eyes,
which
is
just
as
exciting
as
watching
a
movie.
Reading
is
also
necessary
in
order
to
learn
about
writing,
to
improve
my
use
of
words
and
phrases
and
broaden
my
knowledge.
What
a
pity
to
see
our
imagination
disappear,
for
we
don't
exercise
it
often.
Reading
can
even
be
good
for
one's
health,
I
think.
Everyone
should
read
sad
stories
that
make
us
cry
and
also
books
with
humor
that
make
us
laugh
out
loud!

to

friends？

are
my
life
habits?

do
I

D
The
world's
insects
are
going
down
the
path
of
extinction,
threatening
a
“catastrophic
collapse
of
nature's
ecosystems”，
according
to
the
first
global
scientific
review.
More
than
40%
of
insect
species
are
declining
and
third
are
endangered,
the
analysis
found.
The
rate
of
extinction
is
eight
times
faster
than
that
of
mammals,
birds
and
reptiles.
“It
should
be
of
huge
concern
to
all
of
us,
for
insects
are
at
the
heart
of
every
food
web.
They
pollinate(授粉)
the
large
majority
of
plant
species,
keep
the
soil
healthy,
recycle
nutrients,
control
pests,
and
much
more.
Love
them
or
loathe
them,
we
humans
cannot
survive
without
insects，”
said
Prof.
Dave
Goulson
at
the
University
of
Sussex
in
the
UK.
The
analysis,
published
in
the
journal
Biological
Conservation,
says
intensive
(集约型)
agriculture
is
the
main
driver
of
the
declines,
particularly
the
heavy
use
of
pesticides.
Urbanisation
and
climate
change
are
also
significant
factors.
“If
insect
species
losses
cannot
be
stopped,
this
will
have
catastrophic
consequences
for
both
the
planet's
ecosystems
and
for
the
survival
of
mankind.
It
is
very
rapid.
In
10
years
you
will
have
a
quarter
less,
in
50
years
only
half
left
and
in
100
years
you
will
have
none，”
said
review
author
Francisco
Sánchez－Bayo,
at
the
University
of
Sydney,
Australia.
One
of
the
biggest
impacts
of
insect
loss
is
on
many
birds,
reptiles,
amphibians
and
fish
that
eat
insects.
“If
this
food
source
is
taken
away,
all
these
animals
starve
to
death，”
he
said.
Such
effects
have
already
been
seen
in
Puerto
Rico,
where
a
recent
study
revealed
a
98%
fall
in
ground
insects
over
35
years.
Matt
Shardlow,
at
the
conservation
charity
Buglife,
said，“It
is
thoughtful
to
see
this
evidence
that
shows
the
pitiful
state
of
the
world's
insect
populations.
It
is
increasingly
obvious
that
the
planet's
ecology
is
breaking
and
there
is
a
need
for
a
strong
and
global
effort
to
prevent
and
change
these
terrible
trends.”

Bank
holidays!
We
all
love
them!
A
bank
holiday
is
an
English
term
for
a
public
holiday.
During
the
day
banks
and
offices
are
closed
and
a
lot
of
people
have
a
day
off
work.
In
the
UK,
people
only
get
eight
bank
holidays
in
one
year.
__36__
People
in
Colombia
are
much
luckier.
There
are
twenty
bank
holidays
for
the
whole
country
in
one
year!
And
there
can
be
even
more,
depending
on
which
region(地区)
you
live
in.
__37__
As
in
the
UK,
most
of
the
bank
holidays
in
Colombia
exist
for
religious
reasons.
__38__
One
such
example
is
Independence
Day
on
20
July
every
year.
This
is
just
like
Bastille
Day
in
France
on
14
July.
__39__
It
is
in
memory
of
the
day
that
Christopher
Columbus,
first
reached
America
in
the
year
1492.
Bank
holidays
are
very
important
for
western
people.
__40__
They
may
also
choose
to
stay
at
home
to
relax
and
forget
about
work.
A．Bank
holidays
are
different
in
Colombia.
B．During
the
holidays,
they
often
travel
with
their
family.
C．This
is
because
different
regions
have
their
own
holidays.
D．And
at
least
five
of
those
are
around
Christmas
time
and
Easter.
E．Every
country
on
the
continent
of
America
celebrates
Columbus
Day.
F．Another
historical
bank
holiday
in
Colombia
is
Columbus
Day
on
12
October.
G．However,

阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。
It
is
natural
that
young
people
are
not
often
comfortable
when
they
are
with
their
parents.
They
say
that
their
__41__
don't
understand
them.
They
often
think
that
their
parents
are
out
of
touch
with
modern
ways;
that
they
are
too
strict
__42__
their
children;
and
that
they
__43__
give
their
children
a
free
hand.
It
is
true
that
parents
often
find
it
difficult
to
win
their
children's
__44__
and
they
tend
to
forget
how
they
themselves
__45__
when
young.
For
example,
young
people
like
to
act
at
once
without
much
__46__.
It
is
one
of
their
ways
to
show
that
they
have
__47__
up
and
they
can
face
any
difficult
situation.
Instead,
__48__
people
worry
more
easily.
Most
of
them
__49__
things
ahead,
at
least
in
their
minds,
and
do
not
like
their
plans
to
be
upset
by
something
__50__.
When
you
want
your
parents
to
let
you
do
__51__，
you
will
have
better
success
if
you
ask
__52__
you
really
start
doing
it.
Young
people
often
make
their
parents
angry
with
their
choices
in
clothes,
in
__53__
and
in
music.
But
they
do
not
mean
to
cause
any
trouble;
it
is
just
that
they
feel
__54__
from
the
older
people's
world,
into
which
they
have
not
yet
been
accepted.
That's
why
young
people
want
to
make
a
new
culture
of
their
__55__.
And
if
their
parents
do
not
like
their
music
or
entertainments
or
clothes
or
their
ways
of
speech,
this
will
make
the
young
extremely
__56__.
Sometimes
you
are
so
proud
of
yourself
that
you
do
not
want
your
parents
to
__57__
“yes”
to
what
you
do.
All
you
want
is
to
be
__58__
and
do
what
you
like.
It
is
natural
enough,
after
being
a
child
for
so
many
years,
that
you
were
completely
under
your
parents
control.
If
you
plan
to
control
your
life,
you'd
better
persuade
your
parents
and
try
to
get
them
to
__59__
you.
If
your
parents
see
that
you
have
a
high
sense
of
responsibility,
they
will
certainly
give
you
the
__60__
to
do
what
you
want
to
do.

第二节(共10小题；每小题1.5分，满分15分)
阅读下列短文，在空白处填入适当的内容(1个单词)或括号内单词的正确形式。
On
arriving
in
the
United
States.
I
felt
everything
was
different.
There
were
many
new
things
I
had
to
adapt
to.
One
thing
that
really
__61__
(take)
me
a
long
time
to
adapt
to
was
speaking
the
language.
I
remember
__62__
(clear)
that
I
had
to
struggle
to
learn
English
because
I
couldn't
even
write
a
short
paragraph
to
introduce
myself
at
the
first
day
of
my
English
class.
The
teacher
asked
me
__63__
it
was
difficult
for
me.
If
it
was,
I
could
change
to
level
one!
However,
I
was
stubborn
and
swore
that
I
was
going
to
succeed.
I
started
to
spend
many
__64__
(hour)
per
day,
even
though
it
was
stressful,
because
I
wanted
to
take
advantage
__65__
this
special
chance
to
study
English
in
the
USA.
I
felt
depressed
because
I
couldn't
understand
__66__
people
were
saying
even
though
I
made
great
efforts.
However,
I
still
kept
__67__
(try)
and
never
gave
up.
Now,
I
can
tell
you
that
I
have
improved
a
lot,
but
sometimes
it
is
still
easy
for
me
to
get
__68__
(confuse)
if
I
don't
know
what
topic
people
__69__
(talk)
about.
To
adapt
to
this
new
language,
I
had
to
tell
__70__
(
I
)
that
I
could
do
it.
I
really
believe
I
can!

During

last

I
went

Let's

W：Unfortunately,
I'll

Maybe

M：Honey,
what
do
you
think
of
this
kind
of
wooden
chair
for
our
restaurant?
W：It
looks
great,
but
it's
kind
of
small.
Just
like
the
chairs
in
my
company.
How

here?

M：You
look
upset.
What's
wrong?
W：I'll

M：Did
you
get
another
ticket
or
couldn't
you
find
a
parking
space?
W：I
wish
it
were
just
that.
My

Could

I
can
take

W：Hi,

You
look
unhappy.
M：My

went
wrong
this
morning
and
I
have
to
get
a
paper
finished
for
class
on
Monday.
W：You
can
always
go
to
the
library.
M：The
library
isn't
open
on
Saturday
afternoons
and
Sundays
and
I
have
to
take
care
of
my
baby
sister
this
morning.
W：That's
a
problem.
My
family
is
having
friends
over
this
afternoon
so
it
won't
be
possible
for
you
to
come

I

M：Hi,
Judy.
Did
you

I
usually
sit
here
and
talk
with
my
friends
after
lunch
until
my
first
class
at
2
in
the
afternoon.
Now
we
have
to
find
someplace
else
to
go.
M：But
we
have
lots
of
other
places
to
go.
We
can
go
to
the
school
park.
W：That
means
carrying
all
my
books.
M：But
they
explain
this
will
help
keep
the
cost
of
food
down,
and
we
can
save
some
extra
money.

W：Hi,
Jeff.
How
was
your
weekend?
M：It
was
great.
Mary,
how
was
yours?
W：My
mother's
birthday
was
Saturday
and
we
had
a
great
time.
We
had
dinner
at
home
and
then
watched
an
old
movie.
When
they
told
me
it
was
almost
seventy
years
old,
I
thought
it
was
going
to
be
boring,
but
it
was
one
of
the
best
movies
I've
ever
seen.
I
couldn't
take
my
eyes
off
the
screen.
I
laughed,
I
cried,
I
got
angry.
M：Wow!
Now
I
want
to
see
it.
W：I'm
dying
to
watch
it
again.
Hey,
why
don't
we
get
together
and
have
a
party
and
we
can
see
the
movie
together?
M：That's
a
great
idea.
I
can
bring
some
friends,
if
that's
OK.
W：Sure.
I'll
ask
my
mum
to
watch
it
with
us.
She
can
tell
us
all
about
the
stars.
Let's
say
6
o'clock
on
Saturday.

M：OK.
I
got
my
vacation
early
this
year
so
as
soon
as
school's
out,
the
first
of
June,
we
have
two
weeks
to
have
fun.
We've
talked
about
this
before
and
have
chosen
two
possibilities:
a
trip
across
Canada
or
explore
Florida.
Which
will
it
be?
W：I'd
like
to
go
to
Florida.
I've
always
wanted
to
visit
Orlando.
M：We
should
get
on
the
Internet
and
check
flight
schedules
as
soon
as
possible.
I
remember
a
ticket
costs
$500.
They
may
still
have
that
promotion
where
a
second
person
flies
for
half
price.
That
means
the
four
of
us
can
go
for
the
cost
of
three.
W：Orlando,
here
we
come!
But
we
won't
spend
the
whole
two
weeks
there,
will
we?
I
heard
St
Augustine
was
cool.
And
there's
Daytona
Beach
where
you
can
drive
on
the
beach.
M：Your
mother
and
I
will
take
care
of
the
driving
and
make
hotel
reservations
so
you
and
Tim
will
plan
the
sightseeing.
Is
that
a
deal?
W：Yeah!
Great!
M：Only
one
rule.
Each
person
gets
to
take
one
suitcase.
W：But
I
have
a
lot
of
clothes
I
want
to
take.
M：I'll
help
you
pack.

W：Planning
a
schedule
that
includes
time
for
studies,
sports,
part?time
work
and
free
time
can
be
a
challenge.
Today
we
have
Dr
Tony
with
us
to
talk
about
how
to
plan
a
schedule.
M：Well,
the
good
way
to
start
is
to
make
a
plan
for
each
day
of
the
week
and
then
try
to
balance
your
time
so
you
can
include
everything.
Here
are
some
guidelines
that
may
help
you.
First,
we
start
with
the
twenty?four
hours
we
all
have
in
every
day.
If
we
take
out
eight
hours
for
our
sleep
time,
that
leaves
sixteen
hours
to
divide
among
the
other
activities.
Attendance
at
school
takes
about
six
hours
and
homework
about
two,
for
a
total
of
eight.
That
leaves
us
eight
hours
for
sports,
work
and
free
time.
Remember,
those
guidelines
are
flexible
and
you
must
adjust
them
to
your
particular
needs.
Weekends
are
different
since
we
don't
have
to
attend
school.
Here
we
can
usually
focus
on
certain
activities
such
as

B
Inspired
by
a
9－year－old
cyclist,
Lauren
Turner,
who
can
only
use
one
hand,
a
group
of
University
of
Guelph
students
has
won
an
international
award
for
their
invention—a
bike
brake
lever
(刹车手柄)
that
pulls
both
the
front
brake
and
the
back
brake
at
the
same
time.
Lauren
Turner
was
able
to
ride
her
bike,
but
not
as
confidently
and
quickly
as
her
friends.
“She
couldn't
use
the
front
brake.
She
only
used
the
back
brake,
but
the
front
brake
makes
you
stop
twice
as
fast，”
says
Micha
Wallace,
who,
with
Katie
Bell,
Anina
Sakaguchi
and
Andrew
Morries
won
second
prize
in
the
James
Dyson
Award
for
their
single－handed
bike
brake
lever.
“Lauren
Turner
tried
the
device
(装置)
first
and
she
used
it
all
last
summer.
She
had
no
problems.
It
helped
her
go
faster
because
she
felt
more
confident
in
her
braking
abilities.
She
felt
safer，”
says
Wallace.
The
invention
was
the
fourth－year
design
project
for
the
four
students.
They
designed,
tested
and
created
a
prototype
(模型)
within
a
four－month
period.
When
Wallace
heard
about
the
James
Dyson
Award
on
the
news,
she
and
her
co－inventors
entered
their
project
in
the
UK－based
contest,
which
rewards
students
designers
who
create
products
that
improve
the
way
we
live.
The
students
collected
the_runner－up_prize—￡2,000
for
them
and
￡500
for
their
school.
As
well,
they
had
a
chance
to
meet
James
Dyson,
a
UK
famous
inventor.
Praising
the
students
for
their
invention,
Dyson
says
the
single－handed
brake
lever
could
improve
safety
for
all
cyclists.
By
using
both
brakes
at
once,
you
could
prevent
the
possibility
of
flying
over
the
handlebars
and
ending
up
with
an
injury.
The
students
hope
to
sell
it
to
a
major
company.
It
may
be
used
in
other
devices
that
require
two
hands
for
operation.

答案：C
C
I'm
a
real
book
lover.
Every
time
my
friends
visit
me,
my
nose
is
buried
in
a
book.
Wherever
I
go,
I
always
have
a
book
with
me.
Novels,
history
books,
stories
about
people,
journals
and
news—I
read
them
all
and
I've
learnt
a
lot,
too.
For
example,
many
things
in
life
happen
for
the
best
even
if
we
don't
like
or
understand
them.
Why
is
reading
such
an
enjoyable
pastime
for
me?
I
probably
first
learned
about
it
from
my
parents.
My
mother
read
to
me
at
night
in
my
childhood
and
bought
me
picture
books.
The
greatest
gift
she
has
given
me
is
a
love
for
reading.
And
it
will
be
a
life?long
habit.
No
one
ever
asked
me
why
I
liked
to
read.
They
just
saw
me
and
asked,
“Oh?
Is
that
for
school
work？”
And
I
just
shook
my
head,
“No.
It's
just
for
fun.”
While
reading
a
good
book,
I
can
totally
forget
myself
and
fly
to
another
world.
It's
like
exploring
through
someone's
eyes,
which
is
just
as
exciting
as
watching
a
movie.
Reading
is
also
necessary
in
order
to
learn
about
writing,
to
improve
my
use
of
words
and
phrases
and
broaden
my
knowledge.
What
a
pity
to
see
our
imagination
disappear,
for
we
don't
exercise
it
often.
Reading
can
even
be
good
for
one's
health,
I
think.
Everyone
should
read
sad
stories
that
make
us
cry
and
also
books
with
humor
that
make
us
laugh
out
loud!

答案：C
D
The
world's
insects
are
going
down
the
path
of
extinction,
threatening
a
“catastrophic
collapse
of
nature's
ecosystems”，
according
to
the
first
global
scientific
review.
More
than
40%
of
insect
species
are
declining
and
third
are
endangered,
the
analysis
found.
The
rate
of
extinction
is
eight
times
faster
than
that
of
mammals,
birds
and
reptiles.
“It
should
be
of
huge
concern
to
all
of
us,
for
insects
are
at
the
heart
of
every
food
web.
They
pollinate(授粉)
the
large
majority
of
plant
species,
keep
the
soil
healthy,
recycle
nutrients,
control
pests,
and
much
more.
Love
them
or
loathe
them,
we
humans
cannot
survive
without
insects，”
said
Prof.
Dave
Goulson
at
the
University
of
Sussex
in
the
UK.
The
analysis,
published
in
the
journal
Biological
Conservation,
says
intensive
(集约型)
agriculture
is
the
main
driver
of
the
declines,
particularly
the
heavy
use
of
pesticides.
Urbanisation
and
climate
change
are
also
significant
factors.
“If
insect
species
losses
cannot
be
stopped,
this
will
have
catastrophic
consequences
for
both
the
planet's
ecosystems
and
for
the
survival
of
mankind.
It
is
very
rapid.
In
10
years
you
will
have
a
quarter
less,
in
50
years
only
half
left
and
in
100
years
you
will
have
none，”
said
review
author
Francisco
Sánchez－Bayo,
at
the
University
of
Sydney,
Australia.
One
of
the
biggest
impacts
of
insect
loss
is
on
many
birds,
reptiles,
amphibians
and
fish
that
eat
insects.
“If
this
food
source
is
taken
away,
all
these
animals
starve
to
death，”
he
said.
Such
effects
have
already
been
seen
in
Puerto
Rico,
where
a
recent
study
revealed
a
98%
fall
in
ground
insects
over
35
years.
Matt
Shardlow,
at
the
conservation
charity
Buglife,
said，“It
is
thoughtful
to
see
this
evidence
that
shows
the
pitiful
state
of
the
world's
insect
populations.
It
is
increasingly
obvious
that
the
planet's
ecology
is
breaking
and
there
is
a
need
for
a
strong
and
global
effort
to
prevent
and
change
these
terrible
trends.”

Bank
holidays!
We
all
love
them!
A
bank
holiday
is
an
English
term
for
a
public
holiday.
During
the
day
banks
and
offices
are
closed
and
a
lot
of
people
have
a
day
off
work.
In
the
UK,
people
only
get
eight
bank
holidays
in
one
year.
__36__
People
in
Colombia
are
much
luckier.
There
are
twenty
bank
holidays
for
the
whole
country
in
one
year!
And
there
can
be
even
more,
depending
on
which
region(地区)
you
live
in.
__37__
As
in
the
UK,
most
of
the
bank
holidays
in
Colombia
exist
for
religious
reasons.
__38__
One
such
example
is
Independence
Day
on
20
July
every
year.
This
is
just
like
Bastille
Day
in
France
on
14
July.
__39__
It
is
in
memory
of
the
day
that
Christopher
Columbus,
first
reached
America
in
the
year
1492.
Bank
holidays
are
very
important
for
western
people.
__40__
They
may
also
choose
to
stay
at
home
to
relax
and
forget
about
work.
A．Bank
holidays
are
different
in
Colombia.
B．During
the
holidays,
they
often
travel
with
their
family.
C．This
is
because
different
regions
have
their
own
holidays.
D．And
at
least
five
of
those
are
around
Christmas
time
and
Easter.
E．Every
country
on
the
continent
of
America
celebrates
Columbus
Day.
F．Another
historical
bank
holiday
in
Colombia
is
Columbus
Day
on
12
October.
G．However,
some
bank
holidays
in
Colombia
came
into
being
for

36．D 解析：对前文In
the
UK,
people
only
get
eight
bank
holidays
in
one
year.
做补充说明；关注代词指代，即at
least
five
of
those

bank
holidays，故选D。
37．C 解析：对前文And
there
can
be
even
more,
depending
on
which
region
(地区)
you
live
in.
进行解释说明；C项中region与此处region呼应，故选C。

such
example和后文Christopher
Columbus
及段落中心词historical得知，F选项，哥伦比亚的另外一个法定节假日是10月12日的哥伦布发现美洲纪念日，切题，故选F。
40．B 解析：本段介绍在西方国家人们如何度过法定假期；后文They
may
also
choose
to
stay
at
home
to
relax
and
forget
about
work.可知，B选项，他们可能与家人在节假日一道出去旅行，切题，故选B。

阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。
It
is
natural
that
young
people
are
not
often
comfortable
when
they
are
with
their
parents.
They
say
that
their
__41__
don't
understand
them.
They
often
think
that
their
parents
are
out
of
touch
with
modern
ways;
that
they
are
too
strict
__42__
their
children;
and
that
they
__43__
give
their
children
a
free
hand.
It
is
true
that
parents
often
find
it
difficult
to
win
their
children's
__44__
and
they
tend
to
forget
how
they
themselves
__45__
when
young.
For
example,
young
people
like
to
act
at
once
without
much
__46__.
It
is
one
of
their
ways
to
show
that
they
have
__47__
up
and
they
can
face
any
difficult
situation.
Instead,
__48__
people
worry
more
easily.
Most
of
them
__49__
things
ahead,
at
least
in
their
minds,
and
do
not
like
their
plans
to
be
upset
by
something
__50__.
When
you
want
your
parents
to
let
you
do
__51__，
you
will
have
better
success
if
you
ask
__52__
you
really
start
doing
it.
Young
people
often
make
their
parents
angry
with
their
choices
in
clothes,
in
__53__
and
in
music.
But
they
do
not
mean
to
cause
any
trouble;
it
is
just
that
they
feel
__54__
from
the
older
people's
world,
into
which
they
have
not
yet
been
accepted.
That's
why
young
people
want
to
make
a
new
culture
of
their
__55__.
And
if
their
parents
do
not
like
their
music
or
entertainments
or
clothes
or
their
ways
of
speech,
this
will
make
the
young
extremely
__56__.
Sometimes
you
are
so
proud
of
yourself
that
you
do
not
want
your
parents
to
__57__
“yes”
to
what
you
do.
All
you
want
is
to
be
__58__
and
do
what
you
like.
It
is
natural
enough,
after
being
a
child
for
so
many
years,
that
you
were
completely
under
your
parents
control.
If
you
plan
to
control
your
life,
you'd
better
persuade
your
parents
and
try
to
get
them
to
__59__
you.
If
your
parents
see
that
you
have
a
high
sense
of
responsibility,
they
will
certainly
give
you
the
__60__
to
do
what
you
want
to
do.
