【2012黑龙江佳木斯一中高三四次调研】
In the 60s, people asked about your astrological (about star) sign. In the 90s, they want to know your website. 1 Your website is an electronic meeting place for your family, friends and potentially, millions of people around the world. Best of all, you may not have to spend a cent. The Web is filled with all kinds of free services and all it takes is some time and creativity.
2 Like the table of contents of a book or magazine, the home page is the front door. Your site can have one or more pages, depending on how you design it.
While web pages vary greatly in their design and content, most use a traditional magazine layout(版面设计). At the top of the page is a banner(横幅)GRAPHIC. Next comes a greeting and short description of the site. Pictures, text, and links to other websites follow.
3 Think about whom the site is for and what you want to say. Next, gather up the material that you want to put on the site.
While there are no rules you have to follow, there are a few things to keep in mind: 4 If you want too much at the beginning, you may never get the site off the ground. You can always add to your site.
Less is better. Most people don’t like to read a lot of long texts online. 5
Smaller is better. Since it can take a long time to download large files, keep the file sizes small.
Have the rights. Don’t put any material on your site unless you are sure you can do it legally. Always remember to get the permission from the writer first.
Now it’s time to roll up your sleeves and start building.
A. Start simply.
B. Break it into small pieces.
C. Draw a rough layout on a sheet of paper.
D. Many websites are considered very interesting.
E. Before you start building your site, do some planning.
F. Think of your home page as the starting point of your website.
G. These days, having a web address is almost as important as a street address.
1.G根据后文Your website is an electronic meeting place for your family, friends and potentially, millions of people around the world可知网址的重要性,选G前后连贯。
2.F根据后文的the home page is the front door.可知选F。
3.E根据gather up the material that you want to put on the site. 可知选E。
4. A根据If you want too much at the beginning中的beginning可知选A。
5. B根据Less is better. Most people don’t like to read a lot of long texts online可知:越少越好,人们不喜欢读长篇文章,所以应该把长篇文章分成小短篇。

【顺义区2012届高三尖子生综合素质展示】The hardest language
People often ask which is the most difficult language to learn, and it is not easy to answer because there are many factors to take into consideration. Firstly, in a first language the differences are unimportant as people learn their mother tongue naturally. 1
A native speaker of Spanish, for example, will find Portuguese much easier to learn than a native speaker of Chinese, for example, because Portuguese is very similar to Spanish, while Chinese is very different. 72 The greater the differences between the second language and our first, the harder it will be for most people to learn.
3 Teachers and the circumstances in which the language is learned also play an important role, as well as each learner’s motivation for learning. If people learn a language because they need to use it professionally, they often learn it faster than people studying a language that has no direct use in their day to day life.
Apparently, British diplomats and other embassy staff have found that the second hardest language is Japanese, which will probably come as no surprise to many, but the language that they have found to be the most problematic is Hungarian, which has 35 forms of a nouns according to whether it is subject, object, etc.
4 In the case of Hungarian for British learners, it is not a question of the writing system, which uses a similar alphabet, but the grammatical complexity, though native speakers of related languages may find it easier, while struggling with languages that the British find relatively easy.
No language is easy to learn well, though languages which are related to our first language are easier. Learning a completely different writing system is a huge challenge, but that does not necessarily make a language more difficult than another. 5
A. In this case, first language can affect learning a second language.
B. Therefore, it is difficult to gain a good knowledge of every language.
C. Some people seem to learn languages readily, while others find it very difficult.
D. This does not mean that Hungarian is the hardest language to learn for everyone.
E. Individuals from different cultures will find different languages more difficult.
F. It is impossible to say that there is one language that is the most difficult language in the world.
G. So the question of how hard a language is to learn is only relevant when learning a second language.

The Winner’s Guide to Success
How do successful people think What helps them to make success To find out the answers, an American scholar recently visited some of the most successful people in America. 1
Be responsible for yourself
Sometimes you may want to blame others for your failure to get ahead. 2 You’re saying, “You have more control over my life than I do.”
Live life “on purpose”
Almost all successful people live life “on purpose”— they are doing what they believe they should and want to do. When you live your life on purpose, you’ll try your best to do your job or study as well as you can. You love what you do and you can find pleasure in what you do.
Write a plan
It is very difficult trying to get what you want without a good plan. 3 A good plan is like a map to you. Without this “map”, you may waste your time, money and also your energy; while with the “map” you’ll enjoy the “trip” and get what you want in the shortest possible time.
Be willing to pay the price
Nothing great is easy to get. So you must be ready to work hard — even harder than you have ever done. If you are not willing to pay the price, you won’t get anything valuable.
Never give up
4 When you are doing something, you must tell yourself again and again: Giving up is worse than failure because failure can be the mother of success, but giving up means the death of hope.
5
Once an American writer was writing a novel. He could not have a good ending for his book until one night when he had a very good idea. He was so excited that he made a phone call to one of his best friends. “I’ve got a perfect idea,” he said, “I’ll put it down later and show it to you.” But he never did, because he died that night. His book was left without a perfect ending. So remember, do what you can right away. Never delay at all.
A. It is just like trying to drive through strange roads to a city far away.
B. It seems to us that everyone knows this. But it is easier said than done.
C. Some people achieve success much later in life because they fail to realize earlier the importance of hard work.
D. In fact, when you say someone or something outside of yourself is stopping you from making success, you’re giving away your own power.
E. Someone else’s opinion of you doesn’t have to become your reality.
F. Don’t delay
G. Here are some keys to success that they give.

Does this situation seem familiar to you Your English is progressing well, the grammar is now familiar, the reading comprehension is no problem, and you are speaking quite fluently. 1
First of all, remember that you are not alone. Listening is probably the most difficult job for almost all learners of English as a foreign language. 2 what you need to do is to find listening resources. The Internet is really a useful tool for English students. You can download The RealPlayer from RealMedia.c om. The RealPlayer allows you to use the Internet like a radio station.
Once you have begun to listen on a regular basis, you might still be frustrated(受阻)by limited understanding 3
Here is some of the advice I give my students:
Accept the fact that you are not going to understand everything.
Stay relaxed when you do not understand, and try listening to the material for more times.
Do not translate everything into your native language .
4 Don't concentrate on detail until you have understood the main ideas.
Listen to something you enjoy.
I remember the problems I had in understanding spoken German when I first went to Germany. In the beginning, when I didn't understand a word, I insisted on translating it in my mind. 5 Then, after the first six months, I discovered two extremely important facts; Firstly, translating creates a barrier between the listener and the speaker. Secondly, most people repeat themselves constantly. By remaining calm, I noticed that even if I didn’t pay much attention I could usually understand what the speaker had said.
A.What should you do
B.But listening is a problem for most of the beginners!
C.However, after several weeks, I got used to the grammar rules
D.The most important thing is to listen as often as possible.
E.This method usually resulted in confusion.
F.Listen for the general idea of the conversation.
G.But you can’t follow a native English speaker at all!

Most drinks stating that they are fruit flavored (水果味道的) contain no fruit at all, while most of the rest contain only a small quantity of fruit, according to a study carried by the British Food Commission.
“Shoppers need to check the labels (标签) before buying drinks, though sometimes the actual content can be non existent,” said Food Commission spokesperson Ian Tokelove. “Food production is highly competitive. __1__ It will increase profits, and consumers won't always realize they are being tricked.”
Flavorings are focused on the flavors of natural food products such as fruits, meats and vegetables, or creating flavor for food products that do not have the desired flavors. Researchers analyzed the contents of 28 strawberry flavored products sold in stores. __2__ Of the 11 products that did contain strawberries, five of them contained less than one percent real fruit. In addition, each juice box contained nearly eight teaspoons of sugar.
__3__ Let's take jam as an example. Some strawberry flavored jam was labeled as containing no artificial colors, flavors, or sweeteners, but it contained absolutely no strawberries at all.
__4__ Consumers have the rights to know clearly about what they have bought. Under current UK law, food packages do not have to distinguish between natural and artificial flavoring. “Describing a product as strawberry flavor and covering the surface of the packet with pictures of strawberries is misleading. __5__ Unfortunately, it is also legal and widespread,” Tokelove said. “It's time to take measures to protect the consumers' rights.”
A. The products which contain real fruit are popular with people.
B. Even products advertised as more natural often contained no fruit.
C. They found that about 60 percent of them didn't contain any fruit at all.
D. If companies can cut their costs by using flavoring, they are likely to do so.
E. It is important and necessary to demand a small amount of flavoring in the products.
F. Actually the product contains just a tiny percentage of strawberry or even no fruit at all.
G. The Food Commission suggested all flavors used in a product should be listed on the packaging.

A brainstorm is a session where a small group of people come together to solve a problem People voice spontaneous ideas, sometimes just shouting, and a note-taker writes them all down. 1 By getting different ideas out there, ideas are said to bounce off each other and even can help solve the problem at hand.Brainstorming is often a group exercise but individuals can also conduct personal brainstorms.
2 He defined it as using the brain to storm a creative problem and do so in commando (突击队) fashion, with each stormer attacking the same objective.According to him, it was easier to tone down a wild idea than think up a new one.He placed importance on the collection of as many ideas as possible and dismissed scientific thinking.
Brainstorming has become one of the most popular ways to solve problems and hold discussion in schools and businesses.Many students brainstorm for a group assignment or even for a personal essay.Sarah Grace, 24, is an Australian marketing analyst and uses brainstorming during all her creative duties.She thinks brainstorming is the best way to work as a team.The sessions get everyone on the same page, everyone moving together and with a clear understanding about the foundations of an event or idea. 3
However, a big problem with brainstorming is creating a mess that leads people further away from a solution. 4 If you don't have a strong moderator or leader of the brainstorm, can go really off track, and people just start discussing something totally different.Brainstorming can sometimes confuse the human brain. 5 If you brainstorm too much and your page is filled up with all the messy links, you can paint yourself into a bit of corner and get trapped with ideas You need to move past brainstorming as soon as you have something workable.
A.The ideas can be smart, strange or crazy.
B.It is caused by a lack of direction from a leader.
C.Brainstorming really helps her organize her thoughts.
D.Brainstorming really is the best way to build team spirit.
E.It can open too many doors and not suggest a clear direction.
F.Brainstorms were popularized in the 1940s by American advertising boss Alex Osborn.
G.They can be words, phrases, paragraphs and anything that can help answer the question.

【2012·南阳期终】Have you heard about Leap year Leap year is a year that has 366 days instead of the usual 365. It normally occurs every four years, always on an even-numbered year. The extra day is added to our shortest month. That is the second month of the year, which in non-leap years has 28 days, two fewer than any other month. 1
We also call Leap year the bissextile year. 2 In our calendar system there is a need for a leap year because the solar year (the time it takes the earth to go around the sun once) is actually slightly more than 365 days long. That extra day—Feb 29 every four years—helps correct the difference between our calendar and the solar calendar.
It is said that Leap year was first made part of the calendar by the ancient Roman leader Julius Caesar. His astronomers had calculated the length of the solar year to be 365 days and six hours. So Caesar declared that an extra day be added to the calendar. 3
However, Caesar’s adjustment was not completely accurate because his astronomers’ year exceeded the true solar year by eleven minutes and fourteen seconds. By 1582, a difference of ten days had developed between the calendar year and the true solar year. To correct this error, Pope Gregory XⅢ ruled that every fourth year would continue to be a leap year except for century years that could not be divided evenly by 400. By this system, century years such as 1700, 1800, and 1900 were not leap years, but the year 2000 was a leap year. 4
People born on Feb 29 celebrate their growing up a little differently from the rest of us.
5 But if they go strictly by the calendar, they have only one-fourth as many birthday celebrations as most people.
A. They acknowledge that they get older each year.
B. When you see Feb 29 on a calendar, you know that year is a leap year.
C. This is its formal, or scientific title.
D. This may seem complicated, but it works.
E. In a leap year, the extra day is added to the second month, giving it 29 instead of the usual 28 days
F. The leap year was introduced in the Julian calendar in 46 BC.
G. This is done every four years.

【牡一中2011—2012学年度上学期期中】We can read of things that happened 5.000 years ago in the Near East, where people first learned to write. 1 The only way that they can preserve their history is to recount it as sagas ---- 2 These legends are useful because they can tell us something about migrations of people who lived long ago, but none could write down what they did. Anthropologists(人类学家) wondered where the remote ancestors of the Polynesian peoples now living in the Pacific Islands came from. 3
But the first people who were like ourselves lived so long ago that even their sagas, if they had any, are forgotten. 4
Fortunately, however, ancient men made tools of stone, because this is easier to shape than other kinds. 5 Stone does not decay, and so the tools of long ago have remained when even the bones of the men who made them have disappeared without trace.
They may also have used wood and skins, but these have rotted away.
descriptions of what important events happened in ancient times.
But there are some parts of the world where even now people can’t write.
legends handed down from one generation of story-tellers to another.
So scientists have neither history nor legends to help them to find out where the first “modern men” came from.
But there is some doubt who began to write.
The sagas of these people explain that some of them came from Indonesia about 2,000 years ago.

【2012届·吉林检测题】
If you do not use your arms or your legs for some time, they become weak; when you start using them again, they slowly become strong again. Everybody knows this, and nobody would think of questioning this fact. 1 When someone says that he has a good memory, he really means that he keeps his memory in practice by exercising it regularly, either consciously or unconsciously. When someone else says that his memory is poor, he really means that he does not give it enough opportunity to become strong. 2 One of them exercises his arms and legs by playing tennis, while the other sits in a chair or a motor car all day.
If a friend complains that his arms are weak, we know that it is his own fault. But if he tells us that he has a poor memory, many of us think that his parents are to blame, or that he is just unlucky, and few of us realize that it is just as much his own fault as if it was his arms or legs that were weak. 3 But all of us can, if we have ordinary bodies and brains, improve our strength and our memory by the same means — practice.
Have you ever noticed that people who cannot read or write usually have better memories than those who can 4 It’s because those who cannot read or write have to remember things. They cannot write them down in a little notebook and they have to remember dates, time and prices, names, songs and stories, so their memory is being exercised the whole time 5 .
A. What do you think of it
B. Yet many people do not seem to know that the memory works in the same way.
C. Not all of us can become extremely strong or extremely clever.
D. So if you want a good memory, practice remembering.
E. Someone else says that he is poor in health.
F. Why is this
G. The position is exactly the same as that of two people.

This morning, I remembered a childhood memory. It made realize that some of the acts of kindness that we might do naturally might never be forgotten by the receivers.
I was six years old. My foster mother(养母)was not the kind of person I would have chosen to stay with. 1 On the walk back home I was doing what any six year old would have been doing -- playing. Because of that I dropped the bag of flour and it burst open spilling(洒出)the flour all over the ground. 2
So I ran back to the store and asked the clerk if I could have an empty bag and a scoop(铲子)so I can gather up as much of the flour as possible. There was no way I was going home empty handed.
3 There was no chance of saving it now!
4 He came over to me and asked what was wrong. I told him that I would probably get the beating of my life if I went back without the flour I had been sent for. He took me by the hand and led me back to the store where he bought me a new sack of flour-and some candy!
5
I never told my foster mother about the kind gentleman but I’m twenty-three years old now and I still remember him and his kindness.
A.Then he wiped my tears and sent me on my way home.
B.The driver lent me some money for another bag of flour.
C.The driver saw the sadness on my face and pulled over.
D.One morning she sent me to the store for a bag of flour.
E.One morning she allowed me to play with the neighboring kids.
F.I knew that this meant I would be in big trouble when I got home.
G.Returning to the scene of the accident, to my horror, I saw a car drive right on top of the flour!

What makes a good school
I'm a parent of two elementary students.The experience that my children are going through now in the elementary school is so different from mine when I was at their age.What I think of a good school is communication between teachers.students and parents. 1 Parent-teaeher communication guarantees that a child is educated in the same way and in turn a child will build special bonds in communication between their teachers and parents.
2 My children return home telling me that their teachers ignore their questions when they raise their hands and don’t talk much.On the other hand,I feel the same when I write notes to school. 3 This is telling me there is a lack in communication from the school teachers nowadays as their life is so overwhelmed by the over-crowded schools we have in the US.
However.choosing a career in education is not just for a good job.A teacher should really have heart in touching every child’s life. 4 Even now,I still remember all my elementary school teachers’names. 5 The answer lies in the fact that they spent every minute of their precious time helping me and answering all my questions with patience.When you have teachers who are willing to spend time for any child and communicate with parents,it is what I consider a GREAT school for a child to attend,not just GOOD.
A.I don’t get any response from the teachers to my questions,not even a one-word response.
B.There are different ways of communication, according to different cultures.
C.Why is that
D.Strong communication is very important to a child’s education.
E.I feel that schools nowadays don’t communicate with parents enough and neither is involvement.
F.My elementary school teachers all touched my life.

Today,kids have more worries and face more pressures than ever before.Here are a few tips to help your child focus on and do well in school.
●Create a personal schedule
Recording everything that must be done on a calendar or “to do” list will help him to keep track of important dates and deadlines.If he keeps it in a visible place he will have no problem acknowledging upcoming events and will be better able to plan how and where to spend his time.
●Watch the clock
2 I also recommend setting his clock or watch five minutes ahead since it's always easy to run late.When it comes to something like catching a bus,just five minutes can make a significant difference.
●Focus
He should train himself to be able to concentrate alone on one specific task.This is much easier in a noise free environment.No TV or radio should be on to distract him.
● 3
Lack of sleep is proven to harm us physically.The more sleep we get,the more alert we are.We thus have more energy to handle life's daily tasks.The average adult needs at least six hours of sleep a night and the average child needs at least eight.
●Stay in shape
Through spending time outdoors or playing sports with friends,he can “blow off some steam” so to speak,as well as re energize. 4
●Talk through your problems
Be able to share his concerns with you. 5 If you make it clear that you understand him and are willing to help,not only will you contribute to his emotional health but you'll help build an open and honest relationship as well.
A.Sharing feelings often makes them easier to deal with.
B.Help your child work better to realize his aim.
C.Setting an alarm for the morning is a must.
D.Get enough sleep.
E.Help your child do better in school.
F.Encourage your child to be positive.
G.Encourage him to get outside.
本文主要就孩子如何在学校如何能够集中注意力并觉得更好,给出了自己的建议。
1.E主题型。在本文的第二句“Here are a few tips to help your child focus on and do well in school.”点明了此题的主题,故E项用在空白处作题目为最佳选项。
2.C承上启下型。由设空处前面的标题以及后面提到设闹钟的有关事项,故选C项。
3.D主题型。由后文提到的睡眠的有关信息,可知空白处应选D项。

About 2 months ago I realized how often my mother's caregiver(看护者)would do kind things for me. 1 She always does things which touch me so mush, like picking oranges and juicing them, making my bed for me when my muscles are so tight I can’t bend over easily, clearing the leaves and weeding the front yard..... those kinds of things.
2 But I decided to help her, since she is paid a set wage by the agency we went through, and has a large family to raise. I would put a dollar in a decorative box every time I see one of those kinds of things that she has done for me.
I have already changed out 20 single dollar bills for a $20 bill TWICE and have probably about $70 in there. 3 When the time comes (and it will, probably this year) when we can no longer afford a caregiver for my mother, I will have a box of money that will say thank you in a clear way.
4 She is our own precious angel. And while I know she does these things out of kindness and love for us, it will be my chance to do something out of love and kindness for her. Because it is just a dollar every now and then, it is hardly missed. But in 6 months, or however long it is before the money runs out, it will have grown to quite a bundle of love.
I don’t want the day to come when she will no longer be with us. The reason is that I will miss her presence terribly. 5
A.However, I can hardly wait to give box of money to her!
B.Not just little things, but only things.
C.It is just like all the bundles of things she has done for me.
D.We’ve had her for 2.5 years, and she's like family to us.
E.I always thank her, and she says she enjoys it.
F.That’s my own “thank you for your many kindnesses” box.
G.It hopefully will help to tide her over until she gets a new job.

【2012·顺义素质展示】
The hardest language
People often ask which is the most difficult language to learn, and it is not easy to answer because there are many factors to take into consideration. Firstly, in a first language the differences are unimportant as people learn their mother tongue naturally. 1
A native speaker of Spanish, for example, will find Portuguese much easier to learn than a native speaker of Chinese, for example, because Portuguese is very similar to Spanish, while Chinese is very different. 2 The greater the differences between the second language and our first, the harder it will be for most people to learn.
3 Teachers and the circumstances in which the language is learned also play an important role, as well as each learner’s motivation for learning. If people learn a language because they need to use it professionally, they often learn it faster than people studying a language that has no direct use in their day to day life.
Apparently, British diplomats and other embassy staff have found that the second hardest language is Japanese, which will probably come as no surprise to many, but the language that they have found to be the most problematic is Hungarian, which has 35 forms of a nouns according to whether it is subject, object, etc.
4 In the case of Hungarian for British learners, it is not a question of the writing system, which uses a similar alphabet, but the grammatical complexity, though native speakers of related languages may find it easier, while struggling with languages that the British find relatively easy.
No language is easy to learn well, though languages which are related to our first language are easier. Learning a completely different writing system is a huge challenge, but that does not necessarily make a language more difficult than another. 5
A. In this case, first language can affect learning a second language.
B. Therefore, it is difficult to gain a good knowledge of every language.
C. Some people seem to learn languages readily, while others find it very difficult.
D. This does not mean that Hungarian is the hardest language to learn for everyone.
E. Individuals from different cultures will find different languages more difficult.
F. It is impossible to say that there is one language that is the most difficult language in the world.
G. So the question of how hard a language is to learn is only relevant when learning a second language.
【答案与解析】世界上哪门语言最难 其实,学习任何一门外语都是巨大的挑战。事物都是相对的,没有哪门语言最难学。
1.G根据前一句的内容可知学习一门语言的困难问题只是相对于学习第二语言而言的。
2.A本段前半部分提到西班牙人觉得学习葡萄牙语比中国人学习葡萄牙语更加容易,因为葡萄牙语和西班牙语相似,而汉语则大不相同。由此可知在这种情况下,第一语言会影响第二语言的学习。
3.C本段阐述的是影响语言学习以及学习进度的因素,说明为什么学习语言时有的人觉得容易,而有的人觉得很难。
4.E本段中提到英国人学习匈牙利语时的难度不在于书写而在于复杂的语法;而说匈牙利语本族语的人可能觉得语法更加容易,却在艰难地学习英国人认为相对容易的语言。由此可知来自不同文化背景的人会发现学习不同的语言更加有难度。
5.F本段中提到没有一门语言很容易就可以把它学好,学习一门书写完全不同的语言是一个巨大的挑战,但这并不意味着这门语言比另外一门语言更加难学,所以没有哪一门语言是世界上最难的语言,由此可判断F项符合此处语境。专题四 形容词与副词

One possible version:
Legal Affairs Office of the State Council of China publicized the exposure draft of School Bus Safety Regulations on Dec. 12th, 2011 to collect public opinions.
During the past year, there have been several severe school bus accidents which claimed many young lives. These tragedies came as a shock to everyone, and they have aroused great concern among people from all walks of life. The publication of the draft regulations indicate that our government has realized how serious the situation is and that it is taking effective measures to ensure the safety of the school bus.
The draft regulations reflect a deep concern from our government as well as from the public about students’ lives. When put into effect, the regulations will surely help reduce the number of accidents and benefit schools and families as well. Also, they will be of vital importance in stabling the society.
Personally, I fully support the coming out of the regulations, and I sincerely hope that everyone in our society will obey the regulations. What’s more, the regulations should be strictly carried out. (153 words)

As a result, in order to broaden horizons and learn more professional skills, more and more young people choose to stay on campus for further education. They believe taking a post-graduate course is a good way to enrich their knowledge and make themselves better equipped for a promising future. In other words, they hope to look for a better-paid job in a competitive society with a higher degree.

After 8 days of struggle in hospital,Wang Yue died and left us forever. The incident has stirred heated discussions both in and outside China.

The 2012 Spring Festival Gala has first set a unique record in the history of 30 years’ SFG--- no product placement in the programs, which accordingly has caused heated discussions.
As is shown in the pie chart,20% of the people surveyed think it is a great need for the reform of CCTV, which is of great benefit to the development of CCTV itself. On the contrary, due to too many product placements in the past , 15% hold the view that great harm has been done to the image of CCTV. And 30% of them consider it is full of happiness and creation ,which can set a good example for the next. Not related to the theme of the whole evening party , too many are meaningless, which takes up 20%.
However, about 15% of them think that not only will it bring advertisers a great loss but also the related departments.
As far as I am concerned, no product placement nowadays may be acceptable, and it should be advocated in the society .Most importantly, it should first take the audience’s feeling into account.

【2012淮南一模】
One possible version:
Nowadays it’s a common phenomenon that parents drive their children to school and back home, which causes a heated discussion. A survey has just been conducted about it, and findings are as follows.
We can see the supporters believe that more valuable time can be saved for students to get enough sleep , and children can also rest or have meals comfortably in their own cars. What’s more important, they consider it reasonable just for the sake of children’s safety. Meanwhile, it can offer more chances for parents to communicate with their children.
However, other people hold different opinions. They believe that it results in more traffic jams. Besides, driving kids to and from school will undoubtedly add to the parents’ burdens in aspects like time, energy and expenses. Still, in the long term children may be more dependent on their parents, which does no good to them.
In my opinion, I agree that going to school by car is a better solution for young children, I don’t think it a good idea for older children. It would be better if they choose to cycle or walk to and from school instead of taking a car, which will definitely help them keep fit.

Years of school life has taught me a lot of things, of which sharing is the most significant for me.
In fact, I didn’t realize its significance until I failed the mid-term exam last October, during which time I studied less hard. At first, I was addicted to reading some science fictions in and outside class and didn’t do any homework. As a result, I was less active in class and felt depressed. Then my teacher and classmates talked about my studies with me and I told them about my worries. Thus my anxiety was beginning to be reduced with their help and I regained confidence.
It is sharing with others rather than keeping my worries to myself that has relieved me of trouble and made my studies more efficient. (130 words)

One Possible Version
Dear Li Ping,
I received your letter yesterday. Nowadays many students listen to music and learn English with earphones. As for your trouble with ears and bad memory, I’m afraid you spend too much time listening with earphones. In fact, listening to music while doing your lessons may result in less concentration on your study. Besides, the overuse of earphones does harm to your hearing. There are many ways we can enjoy music and learn English. For instance, a recorder or a radio may be a good choice. However, if you do need to use an earphone, you should rest your ears for at least ten minutes every hour but do not use it more than 2 hours a day. I hope things will get better soon.
Best wishes.
Yours, Lin Tao

【2012温州八校联考】2011年一位用行动宣讲环保概念的年轻人“低碳哥(Low-carbon Brother)”在网上走红了。他的主要做法有:1.捡起废纸,用空白一面写字。2.不开灯看电视,还把电视亮度调到最低(minimum)。3.上班骑自行车,不开车等。
请根据以上提示,写一篇短文介绍低碳生活(生活作息时所耗用的能量要尽力减少,从而减低二氧化碳的排放量)并阐述自己对这种低碳生活的看法。
注意: 1. 对所给要点逐一陈述,适当发挥,不要简单翻译。2. 词数120左右。
【参考范文】
A young man called Low-Carbon Brother became a hit on the Internet in 2011. He suggests living a low-carbon life, which means using less energy in our daily life so that we can help reduce carbon dioxide in the air. For example, he always picks up some waste paper on the street and uses the blank side to write something. While he is watching TV, he always turns down the brightness to the minimum and turns off the light. Besides, he goes to work by bike instead of driving.
Some people think what he is doing is just a show. No one can live such a simple life with so many modern inventions around us. As far as I am concerned, I strongly support his idea and his behavior. Although what he is doing has no huge effect on global warming, he at least can enjoy a healthy life.

Dear Wang Ping,
I’ve learned that you’re having much trouble in your life and study, which seriously affect your physical and mental well-being. I’m worried about that, so I’m writing to share with you some of my ideas.
First of all, it is good having heart-to-heart talks with your parents regularly, telling them you know the high expectations from them and you won’t fail them. Meanwhile, you’d better tell them not to push you too hard, which will lead to too much anxiety. Besides, it is advisable to spare some time to take some exercise to keep refreshed and energetic. However, what’s the most important is that you should always keep optimistic and confident. Please take my advice into consideration.
Looking forward to your reply!

Is daily homework necessary
Recently our school students have had a discussion about whether it is necessary to have daily homework. Different students have different opinions.
Recently our school students have had a discussion about whether it is necessary to have daily homework. Different students have different opinions.
Seventy percent of the students are willing to accept daily homework.They think homework
helps them review and practice what has been taught in class.Besides,by doing daily homework,
students can better understand their lessons.Furthermore,their skills in managing time can also be improved through homework.
However, thirty percent of the students have different opinions. They believe homework reduces their amount of leisure time with their families,not to mention the time for other activities.With a lot of homework to do,students feel tired,and will gradually lose interest in their lessons.
In my opinion, daily homework is necessary, but it must be fit for a student’s ability.Also,the amount of homework should be limited,for a student’s all-around development is more important than anything else in his or her life. (153 words)

【答案与解析】 文章通过一个故事告诉我们,无论是精神世界还是物质世界,一些想法的寻找是简单的,但是想法的运用却是另外一回事。
1.A 考查形容词辨析。由下文对这个传统的描述来看,这个传统很独特,所以四个词中只有strange (奇怪的)符合语境。语境为:很久很久以前,有一个小村庄有着一个奇怪的传统。每到年初,已成年的男孩就会拿到一块地和资金(自己动手)去修建自己的房屋。hopeful 有希望的;literary 文艺的,书本的;cultural文化的。
2.C 考查动词词义辨析。这里指的是在冬天到来前就要完成房屋的修建。所以用complete,意思是:完成。倒数第三段 “By fall, Marc had finished his home.”中有同义词复现:finish。
3. A 考查动词词义辨析。 倒数第三段“The first winter storm destroyed his home and he froze to 16 .The villagers mourned for him.”告诉我们,由于Paul修建的房子不好,被冻死了,人们都来哀悼他,但没有帮助他度过寒冬,由此可以看出,在这一奇怪的传统中,别人是不能提供帮助的,所以选help。
4.D考查语境话选词。上一段告诉我们,成年的男孩是在每年的年初(At the beginning of every year)拿到一块地和资金的,四个选项中只有spring(春天)符合境。
5.B 考查动词辨析。对应第一段提到的was given,所以这里选receive意思是:收到。exchange 交换;recognize 认出,承认;advise 建议,忠告。
6.C考查语境话选词。前文告诉我们,他们要建的是房子,这是在外出考察,自然是找最好的房子和房主交谈以获得如何建好房子的建议。文中有多处同义词home的复现。
7.D考查名词词义辨析。每一位房主都很乐意提供给他们(关于如何建好房子的)建议。所以选advice。可以从“Soon he had so many great ideas that he began to 10 some of them.”中的idea得到启示。
8.B 考查动词辨析。Marc 参观了几栋房子,把房主们提供的建议搜集起来,所以选gather。意思是:搜集。9空后的“continued collecting more ideas”有同义词复现。expect 期待,预料;create 创造;understand理解。
9.C 考查副词辨析。考查动词辨析。Marc开始建房,而Paul 却仍在继续搜集如何建房的建议,两者之间是转折关系,所以用however。
10. A 考查动词辨析。由于搜集的好的修建房屋的方法太多了,以至于都忘了一部分,所以用forget。 believe 认为,相信;replace代替;doubt怀疑。
11. C 考查连词辨析。“He had several false starts”和“his home gradually rose from his land”之间是转折关系,所以用but。
12. D考查动词辨析。倒数第二段 “Each year, Marc searched for other good ideas he could use to make his own home look better.”中的make his own home look better,说的就是他所修的房子可以在建成后随时改良,所以用improve。repair 修理、修补; rebuild重建;sell卖。
13.A 考查名词辨析。第二段的“In each village, they found the nicest 31 and talked to the owners.”可知,应该选conversations,意思是:谈话、会话。
14.B 考查动词辨析。冬天来了,第一场雪使Paul意识到建房子所剩的时间不多了,所以自己便急匆匆地往回赶,所以选rush,意思是:冲、奔,急匆匆的赶。
15. A 考查形容词辨析。由后面的“The first winter storm destroyed his home”可以看出,由于动工时间较晚,时间紧,他修的房子不牢固,所以选weak,意思是:不牢固的。Funny滑稽的;small小的;amazing令人吃惊的。
16. B 考查名词辨析。下一句“The villagers mourned for him”告诉我们,村民们都去哀悼他,由此可知他被冻死了,所以选death。
17. C 考查动词辨析。这里指的是Marc由于修好了房子,顺利渡过了冬天,所以用survive,意思是:从困境中挺过来。
18. D 考查动词辨析。raise 养育。句意为:(后来)他成了村里的领导,养育了一家人,幸福满意的生活着。如果把 A 项后加上up,也是正确的。
19. B 考查形容词辨析。上面的故事告诉我们,建议和想法的寻找是简单的,而实践才是困难的,所以选easy。
20. D考查动词辨析。这里指的是最好的想法的“应用”,所以选apply。

【答案与解析】一个沿街乞讨的乞丐遇到了财富女神,财富女神给了乞丐许多金币,同时告诫乞丐,金币掉到地上则化为灰尘,贪婪的乞丐不听劝告,导致金币撑破钱包化为灰尘,乞丐又变得一无所有。故事告诫人们面对金钱不要贪得无厌。
1.D考查动词辨析。根据第一段最后一句,为什么那些人如此有钱却从不满足,还想得到更多。可知乞丐对此百思不得其解,“keep wondering”(一直想知道)符合句意。
2.B考查形容词辨析。还想得到的更多,所以不满足,“Never satisfy”(从不满足)符合句意。
3.C考查动词辨析。由常识可知,乞丐最重要的是要解决吃和穿的问题。eat(吃)对应下面提到的“穿”符合情景,learn“学习”,watch“看、观察”,play“游戏”,均不符合情景。
4.A考查名词辨析。根据第一段,乞丐在沿街乞讨,所以财富女神降落到大街上才能看到乞丐。street(街道)符合文意。bridge“桥”,yard“院子”,forest“森林”,均不符合文意。
5.C考查动词辨析。根据下文,打开你的钱包,我要给你一些金子,可知财富女神在帮助乞丐。所以选help意为:“帮助”。praise“表扬”,forgive“原谅”, comfort“安慰”,均不符合情景。
6.D考查名词辨析。根据第三段中“All that falls into the wallet will be pure gold”(所有进入你钱包的都是纯金)可知乞丐打开的是一个钱包,所以选 wallet,“钱包”。
7.D考查名词辨析。只有在这种条件下,我才会去做。“All that falls into the wallet will be pure gold; but every piece falling upon the 8 shall become dust”代指上文提到的这种条件。condition“条件、状况”符合句意。
8.C考查名词辨析。语境为:每一枚金币掉到地上都会变成尘土,ground(地面)符合情景。
9.C考查动词短语辨析。根据下文财富女神告诫乞丐不要装的太重,提醒乞丐注意、当心。所以选look out。look after照顾,look up仰视、向上看,look down俯视。
10.C考查形容词辨析。结合上题,财富女神提醒乞丐当心,下文又提醒乞丐“so don’t load it too heavily,”最后一段中告诉我们,钱包坏了,由此可以看出,这是一个旧钱包,所以选worn,意思是:“用旧的”。
11.B考查动词辨析, could hardly wait to do意为:“迫不及待的干某事”。句意:激动的乞丐早已迫不及待的想拿到金子。
12A.考查名词。根据倒数第三段中提到“golden stream”可知答案。

16.B考查动词辨析。对应前文的“Just a little more,”可知,这里表达的意思是:贪婪的乞丐想再往钱包中多装一两把金子。add(添加)符合句意。take拿、携带”,lend“借出” ,send“送给”,均不符合情景。最后一段的第一句话也有原词复现: One more piece was added and the wallet split。
17.B考查动词辨析。钱包已经装满了,而且是一个旧钱包,继续装可能会裂开。所以选burst“破裂”。最后一句话中的“split”为同义词复现。
18.D考查动词辨析。贪婪的乞丐认为钱包还能多装一点。hold“保存”符合语境。
19.C考查名词辨析。treasure(财宝)这里代指金币。钱包破裂后金币自然会掉到地上。present“礼物”, food“食物”,metal“金属”,均不符合句意。

【答案与解析】
1.A考查名词辨析,world世界;领域。句意:一个人死了,在通往另一个世界的路上,或者天堂或者地狱。House“房屋”,place“地方”,hospital“医院”,均不符合题意。
2.D考查形容词辨析。Splendid“辉煌的”,句意:在半路上,他看到一座壮丽辉煌的宫殿。Summer“夏季的”,fairy-tale“童话式的”,royal“盛大的”,均不适合用来修饰宫殿。
3. A考查动词辨析。ask sb. to do sth.意为:请某人做某事。句意为:宫殿主人邀请他留下来,住在宫殿里。asked要求;邀请,符合情景。其他各项也可以跟sb. to do sth.结构,但是意思不符合语境。warn警告,force强迫,demand要求。
4. B考查形容词的辨析。这里表达的意思是:我一生都在努力的工作,现在只想吃就吃饭睡觉,不想干任何工作。work hard 努力工作,符合句意。comfortably舒服的,honestly诚实的,unpaid无报酬的,均不符合句意。
5. C考查介词短语。without any work什么活也不干。任符合句意。句意见上一题。apart from和besides意为:除了……之外,还有。out of离开,在……外面。
6. B考查语境化选词。根据上文,now I just want to eat and sleep without any work." 现在只想吃饭睡觉,不想干任何工作。下文,如果是这样的话(if so),没有任何地方比这儿更适合你了。If so如果这样的话,so替代上文的“just want to eat and sleep without any work”。
7.D考查名词辨析。根据下文的“you can eat whatever you want” 可以吃任何你想吃的,可知在宫殿里储存了大量的食物,jewels珠宝, tastes味道;品味,books书,都不符合语意。
8. A考查动词辨析。这里表达的意思是:在宫殿里吃任何想吃的食物,没有人阻止。所以选stop意为:阻止。ask请求,notice注意, meet会见,均不符合句意。
9. D 考查副词辨析。很显然,上文“没有人阻止”和下文“不需要他做任何事情”之间是递进关系,所以用Moreover,意思是:而且。
10.C考查代词辨析。根据句意,没有事情需要他做,故选nothing。anything任何事情 everything一切事情,something某些事情,均不符合句意。
11.B考查形容词辨析。由but可以看出,根据句意,该句与下文“he felt a bit lonely and void.(感到空虚寂寞)”形成转折关系,在此处他对轮流着吃饭睡觉应该感到非常愉快。故选happy,意思是:愉快的,高兴的。
12.D考查副词词义辨析。由常识可知:时由开始的对这种生活感到愉快,到感到空虚寂寞,这是一个是一个逐渐变化的过程。所以选gradually,意为:逐渐的,渐渐地。surprised感到惊讶的, happy幸高兴的,mad疯狂的,均不符合句意。
13.C考查形容词词义辨析。有上句提到的 “lonely and void”,可知,每天除了吃就是睡的生活是很无聊。故选boring无聊的。strange奇怪的, enjoyable快乐的,relaxing令人放松的,均不符合句意。
14.A考查名词。根据上文,既然这种生活变的很无聊,就会对这种生活失去兴趣。no interest 没有兴趣;失去兴趣,符合语境。trust信任,patience耐心,curiosity好奇,心均不符合句意。
15.D考查名词。根据下文,主人回复他这儿没有任何工作,可知他想请主人帮他找份工作。Find a job找一份工作,符合句意。
16. C 考查语境话选词。语境为:主人很遗憾的回复他,这儿没有任何工作。所以选Sorry,意思是:遗憾的,抱歉的。That’s right没错;就是这样了,Cheer up使振奋,Never mind没关系;均不符合句意。
17A.考查动词。could not bear不能忍受。句意为:又过了几个月后,他再也不能忍受目前的生活了。Lose丢失、逝去,handle处理,risk风险、危险、冒险,不符合句意。
18. D考查副词辨析。前文“So he went to the owner and groaned”告诉我们:他去找过他的主人,这里表达的意思是:他再一次去找主人。只有again再一次、又一次,符合语境。Indeed的确, already已经,always一直,总是。
19.B考查动词辨析。prefer宁愿。句意为:如果你不给我份工作,我宁愿离开这里去地狱。hope 希望,期望;promise许诺,允诺;expect预期,期望。
20. C考查语境化选词。Actually实际上。句意为:你认为这里是天堂吗,这里实际上是地狱。no longer不再;also也,still仍然。

【答案与解析】
1.D promise“允诺,许诺”。我举起手向妻子保证今天不吃巧克力。下文信息I knew my promise would...也有暗示。

3.B depend on“依靠,依赖,取决于”。我依靠我强烈的决心节食。
4.C 当我到医院时那小孩儿又在那儿了。

7.D blind“瞎的”。后文中的信息which caused him to live in the darkness有暗示。
8.C 首先应排除years,如果Benton 15岁时患病,就与本段开头的“an eight year old boy”矛盾了。下一句“For the next twenty six months, he was in and out of our hospital.”有暗示。

10.B develop“(开始)患(病)”。2009年4月的一个星期五的下午Benton开始头痛。
11.A movement“行动,移动,行进,运动”。Benton右侧身体无法移动,失去知觉。注意:motion表示“(物体的)运动,移动,(天体的)运行;动作,姿态,手势;动机,意向”。如:The train was in motion.火车开动了。All her motions were graceful.她的一举一动都很优雅。He did that of his own motion.他出于自愿做了那件事。
12.C rush此处用作及物动词,意为“快速运输,速送”。
13.D 上文提到Benton的母亲将他送到医院,因此这里是说,在接下来的几个月里,他又多次来我们医院。
14.A would用于表示习惯性动作,如:On Sundays he would sleep late.每逢星期天他总睡懒觉。文中讲Benton来医院时,我们总向他问好。
15.B greeting“问候,招呼”。我们向Benton问好,他则常给我们糖。
16.D opened“开的,敞开的,不闭塞的”。后文信息but not looking into this world有暗示,注意句中信息词“but”。
17.C reach“伸手(或脚等)够到,触及”。我的手伸进包,取出我手指接触到的那颗糖。
18.B for“为了,为……目的”,此处表示对象或目的。这是一颗我最喜欢吃的糖,好像是Benton特意为我留下的。

4.B。考查形容词辨析。根据上题,作者不知道那什么来赢得选举,所以感到沮丧。B.depressed“沮丧的”,符合作者的心情。concerned“关心的”, surprised“感到惊讶的”, confused“困惑的”,均不能表达作者此时的心情。

6.B考查动词短语搭配。stand for elections为固定搭配,意为:参选。语境为:我决定在我上学的最后一年重新参选---并将要在选举中胜出。
7.A 考查名词辨析。由语境可知,该空指的是下文提到的我的竞争对手们,也就是 “competitors”(竞争对手)。句意:我意识到我的竞争对手有很多事情战友优势。companions“同伴”, enemies“敌人”,schoolmates“同学”,均不符合。

1.D考查名词。由文章第一句话“My husband and I were cleaning windows together yesterday.”可知,“我们”有双吊钩的“窗户”,这样的“窗户”便于你能向前推并翻转。
2.C 考查动词。第一段提到:昨天“我”和丈夫一起擦窗子。由此可知是便于“我们”“擦洗”窗户的里面和外面。故clean“把……弄干净”符合语境。
3.A考查动词。由文章第一段可知,夫妻二人正在擦洗窗户,此处指的应该是“我”的丈夫正在“洗”一扇窗户。故wash“冲;洗”符合语境。
4.B考查名词。由语境可知应该是“我们”的“房子(house)”要出售。
5.A考查动词。由前面的“…and it popped out of its frame!”可知,窗子坏了。故此处应该表示“我们”最不需要的事情就是东西“坏了”。break“打破、弄坏”符合语境。
6.C考查形容词。由下文中的“…, using a few less than pleasant words (I am sorry to say).”可知,丈夫感到那么的不安(worried)。
7.D 由上文中提到的“it popped out of its frame!”应该使窗户恢复原样。get …back意为“恢复”符合语境。
8.C 考查动词。由下文中的“…and he would try to fix it with me.”可知,丈夫尽力把窗户“安装”在一起。
9.A考查名词。由倒数第二段中的“And my son fixing it with me”可知答案。
10.B 考查动词短语。由下文中的“I called my husband in to see!”可知,儿子告诉他的父亲走开一会……。walk away“走开”符合语境。
11.D 考查副词。由前面的“clearly”及后面的语境可知应该用“easily”合适。
12.A 考查形容词。由最后一段中的第一句话“Calm is good.”可知当你“镇定的”时候,看事情更清晰,做事情更容易。
13.C 考查动词。由上一段中的“After twenty minutes he still could not get it….”可知丈夫二十分钟后仍没能把窗户安装好。再由下文中的“He and I fixed the window in three minutes!”可知,他无法“相信”!
14.D 考查连词。由上下文语境可知是转折关系。故选but。
15.A考查动词。由上下文语境可知,应该是儿子“让”自己的父亲走开一会……。
16.B考查动词辨析。儿子帮助父亲从焦虑中摆脱出来。free …from …意为“使……摆脱……”符合语境。而keep…from…,阻止某人……;protect …from…,保护……免受;save …from…,从……挽救……均不符合语境。
17.C考查名词。由本段第一句知,“我”知道这并不真的是一份礼物,但是在某一方面,它又是。故推知,“我”的儿子和我一起修理窗户,对“我”而言是一份“礼物”。
18.D考查介词短语。由上文中的“a man ”可知下文中与之对应的应该是“the kid”,故选instead of“而不是”。
19.D考查名词。在母亲眼中的儿子。故用“in one’s eyes”。其它三项均不符合语境。
20.B 考查动词短语。turn out结果是,证明是。语境为:带着清醒的头脑返回并且事情将通常产生更好的结果。break out 爆发,发生;pull out 离开,撤离; make out理解,辨认出。

After school, the girls invited me to 6 them in front of the school. I was thrilled to be a(n) 7 of the club. We waited. For what, I didn’t know. Then Mary Lou came down the school steps.

I was not proud. Something inside me 13 . If you’ve ever picked a wing off a butterfly, you know how I felt.
Mary Lou got up, 14 her books and left without a tear or saying anything. She held her head 15 as blood ran down from her knee. I 16 her limp away down the street.
I turned to leave with my 17 friends and noticed a man standing beside his car. He must have been Mary Lou’s father ––– he had the same olive skin, dark hair and handsome look. He remained still and watched the 18 girl walk toward him. Only his eyes ––– shining with both sadness and pride ––– followed. As I passed, he looked at me in silence with burning tears that reminded me of my 19 .

【答案与解析】 别人的推波助澜让作者忘乎所以,无缘无故地去伤害一个无辜的女孩。事后,作者非常内疚,尤其是女孩父亲的那一双眼睛,让作者羞愧难当。
1.A本句前半部分提到以往“新生”的经历很艰难,由此可推测作者对于融人这个新集体很“担心”。

16.A作者”注视”着她一瘸一拐地沿着街道走开了。B、C、D三项分别表示注意、怒目而视、一瞥,都不恰当。
17 B根据第12空前面的“Everyone”Laughing.”可知作者此时转过身去,想和这些大笑的女生一起离开。
18 C 上文提到作者和那砦女生一越辱骂Mary Lou由此可知 Mary Lou孤身一人承受众人的攻击,所以她孤独地走向她的父亲。
19.D根据下·段的内容可知Mary Lou的父亲的泪水让作者感到”羞愧”。

【2012四川德阳高中高三一诊】The singer, Mick Jagger, of the Rolling Stones sings a song that tells people they can’t always get what they want but if we try sometimes we can get what we need. The past years in my life my parents have told me this saying many times. I’ve always complained about the quote(引语). Although over time I have told myself to learn from it.
This year my girlfriend flew off to college in West Palm, Florida. This has been a killer for me because I haven’t been able to see her and she is having a rough time in school. The last two months have been hard but we are working through it. I have been trying to get my dad to buy me a plane ticket to go down there. My dad told me if I brought him some money he would help me pay for the ticket. I started to complain to him because I had no way of getting any money to give him. I spent several days and nights thinking of ways to earn money to go see my girlfriend. I finally came to the conclusion that I would get a job and work hard to earn some money to give to my dad. I applied to Safeway and I ended up getting the job.
I have been working at Safeway for about a month now and work hard to earn money to go see my girlfriend. The other day my mom had surprised me and told me that she asked her boss if she could use their business miles(旅费) to buy me a ticket down to Florida for two weeks. I was very thankful and told her I would help pay for anything that I have to. The thought of me working hard and getting a job showed my mom that I really cared and was trying my best to be a successful person. I believe that you can’t always get what you want but if you try sometimes, you get what you need.
1.The author’s parents often told him the saying quoted from the song because .
A.He liked to complain to them about his life
B.They expected him to learn from the singer
C.He always wanted to get everything he wanted
D.They tried to educate him to do things for himself
2.What does the world “killer” underlined in the second paragraph refer to
A.Something that is quite troublesome. B.Something that is very difficult.
C.A person who kills purposely. D.A person who treats women very badly.
3.What can we infer from the passage
A.The author was lazy and unwilling to work hard.
B.The author’s father was too mean to give him money.
C.The author’s actual action won support from his mother.
D.The author was unable to tear himself away from his girl friend.
4.By writing the passage, the author tries to show .
A.we can do nothing without money
B.fathers are strict while mothers are kind
C.it’s hard for parents to bring up their children
D.we should try to rely on ourselves for everything
[文章大意] 作者的父亲总是引用歌词教育作者,凡事要靠自己的努力,作者就只凭借自己的努力满足了打动父母,如愿以偿的拿到了去看女朋友的票。
1. D推理判断题。由作者在第一段最后的“I’ve always complained about the quote(引语). Although over time I have told myself to learn from it.”尽管作者总是抱怨,但自己也承认学从中学到了东西,这正是父母引用的目的所在。
2. A考查词义猜测。由下文的解释“because I haven’t been able to see her and she is having a rough time in school.”可以看出,女朋友离开去上大学了,自己感觉很孤独,再加上女友在学校“having a rough time”,由此可以看出,这正是上文所说的killer,一些使人烦恼的事情。
3. C推理判断题。当作者提出让父母出钱买票去看女友的时候,父亲的答复是:作者得出钱,即:“if I brought him some money he would help me pay for the ticket.”后来作者找了份工作(ended up getting the job),并努力赚钱买票(work hard to earn money to go see my girlfriend.),正是作者的实际行动感动了作者的妈妈,从而“asked her boss if she could use their business miles(旅费) to buy me a ticket down to Florida for two weeks.”
4. D主旨大意题。作者用开篇用一句歌词引出了主题,只要:只要努力就能得到自己所需要的。中间用自己的一次经历进行了论证,最后一段在回扣:…trying my best to be a successful person., I believe that you can’t always get what you want but if you try sometimes, you get what you need. ,也就是:we should try to rely on ourselves for everything。

【2012·西安一次质检】More than half of rich Americans have not shown their full wealth to their children, a new survey showed last Tuesday.
The survey, published by the Bank of America, studied the rich with $ 3 million or more in assets. It found that “surprisingly few of those surveyed have well-developed plans to preserve and pass on their assets to their children”.
The majority of the 457 people surveyed are self-made, first-generation rich. Fifty-two percent of parents have chosen not to tell their children just how wealthy they are, and 15 percent have given away nothing about the family wealth. One in there parents said they had never thought to do it.
They are worried that their children would become lazy, spend money freely, make bad decisions and even become a target for gold diggers.
Only 34 percent strongly agreed that t heir children would be able to handle any inheritance(遗产) they plan to leave them.
“There is an expectation about the wealthy parents that they have a responsibility to pass down their fortune to the next generation,” said Sallie Krawcheck, president of the Bank of America Globai Wealth and Investment Management. “Our research, however, uncovered changing views of what one generation owes the next.”
The trend is led by the world’s richest man Bill Gates, who promised in 2008 that he would leave his $58 billion fortune to the charity started by him and his wife, the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation(基金会), and not to his children.
“We want to five it back to society in the way that it will have the most positive impact,” he said.
Of his plans for his children, Gates said: “I will give the kids some money but not a meaningful percentage… they will need to work but they will feel reasonably taken care of.”
1.We can learn from the passage that .
A.rich parents may not know how to manage their inheritance
B.rich parents don’t equal rich kids, at least in the US
C.American children don’t get to inherit their parents’ wealth
D.poor children don’t expect themselves to be as rich as their parents
2.According to the survey, most rich Americans .
A.think they owe their children nothing
B.think it best to give their money back to society
C.doubt their children’s ability to handle wealth
D.are confident of their children’s ability to handle wealth
3.The underlined word “they” in Paragraph 6 refers to .
A.responsible children B.Bill Gates and his wife
C.first-generation rich D.rich parents
4.From the last paragraph, we can see that Bill Gates wants to show .
A.the trend of leaving no inheritance to children
B.the positive impact of charity on society
C.the way of giving back to society
D.the importance of independence for children
【答案与解析】文章主要介绍了大多数美国富人处理他们资产的方式,告诉人们保持孩子的独立性比金钱更重要。
1.B细节推断题,根据第二段、第三段可知,在美国,大多数富人们不把他们所有的资产告诉孩子们,也不会让孩子们继承太多的资产,可以得出家长富有并不等于孩子富有。B项rich parents don’t equal rich kids, at least in the US.(至少在美国是这样)家长富有并不等于孩子富有,符合题意。
2.C逻辑推断题。根据第五段,“Only 34 percent strongly agreed that t heir children would be able to handle any inheritance(遗产) they plan to leave them.”(仅有34%的家长坚信他们的孩子有能力处理好留给他们的任何遗产)可以推出66%的家长对孩子们处理资产的能力表示怀疑。所以C.doubt their children’s ability to handle wealth(怀疑他们的孩子处理资产的能力)符合逻辑。
3.D根据第六段,第一句是一个that引导的定语从句,句意:那儿有一个关于富有家长们的预料,that引导的定语从句揭示了富有家长们怎么样的预料,那就是他们肩负着把他们的财富传给下一代的责任。因此,这里they指的是那些富有的家长们。
4.D根据最后一段句意,我要给孩子们一些钱,但不是一个有意义的百分比,他们将需要工作,但他们会感觉合理照顾。由此可知,这样做的目的是不让孩子们过度的依赖父母,要让他们工作,学会独立。D.the importance of independence for children(独立对孩子们的重要性)符合最后一段的句意。

【湖北省八校2012届高三第一次联考】Squirrels often communicate with whistles, chirps and chucks, which sound like the word “chuck”. Whistles and chirps are like the sounds that many birds make.Now scientists have translated some of their squirrel-speak.
Hare, a professor of zoology at the University of Maniloha in Winnipeg, and his team managed to record squirrels' alarm calls.The researchers studied the sounds and then played them back to 60 wild squirrels, which the scientists approached individually with a video recorder to capture(抓拍)their reponses.Some squirrels lifted their heads up and became.Alert(警惕的).Creatures that were more frightened simply ran for their lives and dived into caves.
"In effect then, whistles that mix with chucks say 'there's an enemy of average threat that's here', and whistles without chucks say 'there's an enemy of seemingly average threat around here somewhere', while pure chirps say, 'I'm hiding here because there's an immediate danger.' " Hare told.Discovery News.
Hare and some other researchers believe such sounds arc part of an advanced language that develops just as all other communication systems.
Although squirrels risk their lives when they call out to warn others of threats, other squirrels might admire this behaviour, thus increasingly the caller’s social status, like humans who look up to heroes. Hare added that other animals, such as birds, probably understand at least some squirrel language, since they also may benefit from the alarm calls.
In fact, another Canadian study found that deep-voiced, black-capped chickadees have their own language too.According to certain research, there are a lot of tidings in chickadees' calls, such as directing fellows' activities, keeping in contact between mates, and raising alarms.
While chickadees and other birds are often welcomed into gardens by homeowners, squirrels are frequently viewed as pests(害兽). Hare wishes a greater understanding of the complex social lives and communication systems of squirrels will provide “hope that humans will gain a greater appreciation and stop doing harm to these animals”.

【2012·潍坊三县联考】 After moving to the United States, immigrant groups trying to fit in tend to choose high calorie fatty foods in an attempt to appear more American,a new study finds.That's one reason why immigrants approach US levels of obesity within 15 years of moving to America.
The researchers also did an experiment that measured whether or not the threat of appearing un-American influenced respondents' food choices.After being questioned about their ability to speak English,75 percent of Asian-Americans identified a typical American food as their favorite. Only 25 percent of Asian-Americans who had not been asked if they spoke English did the same.
When their American identity was called into question during a follow-up study, Asian-American participants also tended to choose typical American dishes,such as hamburgers and cheese sandwiches.In that experiment, 55 Asian-Americans were asked to choose a meal from a local Asian or American restaurant. Some participants were told that only Americans could participate in the study. Those who chose the more typical American fare ended up consuming an extra 182 calories,including 12 grams of fat and 7 grams of saturated fat(饱和脂肪).
"People who feel like they need to prove they belong to a culture will change their habits in an attempt to fit in,"said Sauna Cheryan,an author of the study and assistant professor of psychology at the University of Washington." If immigrants and their children choose unhealthy American foods over healthier traditional foods across their lives,this process of fitting in could lead to poorer health." Cheryan added.
Social pressures,the study concluded, are at the heart of the problem."In American society today, being American is associated with being white.Americans,who don't fit this image even if they were born here and speak English,feel that pressure to prove that they're American," said Cheryan.
1. The author wants to show that __________.
A. more and more Asians enjoy high-calorie snacks
B. immigrants tend to eat American junk food to fit in
C. most Americans are at the risk of heart disease
D. all the American people have a bad eating habit
2. According to the survey, __________.
A. Asian-Americans care less about their health
B. 25 percent of Americans like junk food
C. choosing food is related to Asian-Americans' situation
D. immigrants are forced to eat junk food
3. The underlined word "fare" in Paragraph 4 most probably means" __________".
A. food offered as a meal B. a person taking a taxi
C. money spent on food D. an arranged thing to do
4. According to Sauna Cheryan, __________.
A. what immigrants have done is ridiculous
B. American traditional foods are healthier
C. immigrants risk their health in order to fit in
D. American culture affects immigrants deeply
5. Which of the following should take the blame for the bad eating habit
A. The situation of employment. B. The traditional culture.
C. The American government. D. The pressures from society.
【答案与解析】 移居美国是不少人的梦想,许多移民不惜以健康为代价千方百计融入美国社会。
l·B作者意图题。本文是一篇研究报道,第一段是文章的中心段,根据本段第一句中的内容可知作者意在表明移民倾向于食用高能量食物以便融人美国社会。
2·C推理判断题。从第二段的研究可知,75%的被询问过英语能力的亚裔美国人将一种典型的美国食物看做他们的最爱,而只有25%的没有被询问是否说英语的亚裔美国人这样做,由此可推断选择食物与亚裔美国人的处境有关。
3·A猜测词义题:结合上文中的“In that experiment。55 Asian.Americans were asked to choose a meal from a local Asian or American restaurant.”以及画线词后面的内容可推知画线词表示的是提供的食物。
4·C推理判断题。根据倒数第二段后半部分中的内容可推断此人认为移民不惜以健康为代价去融人美国社会。

【2012·上海春招】 For six hours we shot through the landscape of the Karoo desert in South Africa. Just rocks and sand and baking sun. Knowing our journey was ending, Daniel and I just wanted to
remember all we had seen and done. He used a camera. I used words. I had already finished three
notebooks and was into the fourth, a beautiful leather notebook I'd bought in a market in
Mozambique.
Southern Africa was full of stories. And visions. We were almost drunk on sensations. The roaring of the water at Victoria Falls, the impossible silence of the Okavango Delta in Botswana. And then the other things: dogs in the streets, whole families in Soweto living in one room, a kilometre from clean water.
As we drove towards the setting sun, a quietness fell over us. The road was empty -- we
hadn't seen another car for hours. And as I drove, something caught my eye, something moving
next to me. I glanced in the mirror of the car; I glanced sideways to the right, and that was when I saw them. Next to us, by the side of the road, thirty, forty wild horses were racing the car, a cloud of dust rising behind them -- brown, muscular horses almost close enough to touch them, to smell their hot breath. I didn't know how long they had been there next to us.
I shouted to Dan: "Look!", but he was in a deep sleep, his camera lying useless by his feet.
They raced the car for a few seconds, then disappeared far behind us, a memory of heroic forms in the red landscape. When Daniel woke up an hour later I told him what had happened.
"Wild horses " he said. "Why didn't you wake me up "
"I tried. But they were gone after a few seconds."
"Are you sure you didn't dream it "
"You were the one who was sleeping!"
'Typical, he said. "The best photos are the ones we never take."
We checked into a dusty hotel and slept the sleep of the dead.
1. During their journey in Africa, the two travelers________
A. made friends with local residents
B. complained about the poor living conditions

4. What is 'the passage mainly about
A. How to view wildlife in Africa. B. Running into wildlife in Africa.

1.D考查细节理解。根据Daniel and I just wanted to remember all we had seen and done. He used a camera. I used words.可知D正确。
2.B考查猜测词义。根据句意内容应该指追汽车的野马。

4.B考查主旨要义。文章主要叙述了我们在晚上被一群野马追逐的景观,所以文章的大意是Running into wildlife in Africa.。

Several doctors operated on Molly, and removed her infected leg. A false leg was made for her. The leg was a hollow cast with a pole at the bottom for balance. Doctors gave Molly a special horseshoe at the bottom of the leg. This horseshoe she had had a stamp of a smile face in it!
After the operation, Molly walked around on all four legs, as if nothing had ever happened to her! Now, with every step she takes, she stamps a smile in the dirt.But she leaves her m ark in other ways, too.
Kaye Harris took Molly to the false leg center. There were children there who, like Molly, had artificial arms or legs. They were amazed to see a pony with a false leg.

【2012·江苏百校联考】 Now in a world piled high with smartphones,tablets and e-readers,technology has entered the classroom in ways unimaginable. Taking classes can be fun too. A11 you have to do is swipe your fingers on your phone screen and download same Apps, which can make your study more fun and efficient. Balancing study and play in a college setting has never been easy----and with the following few apps, it'll be tough to tell the two apart.
Evernote
Use: note-taking
Can be used on:Phone/iPad/iPod touch,Android,BlackBerry,PalmOS and Windows Phone 7
Price:free
It's hard to imagine that with all the magical gadgets, the eager, studious types would still take out a notepad,pencil,and highlighter-and take notes in class. While it's not an actual planner or calendar App,if you take notes to stay organized,then Evemote is for you. The main thing about Evernate is that all of your notes are automatically sent into the cloud(云储存平台上)---and then you can access them from any web-connected computer via the Evemote App or a web browser. Evernote also support audio and photo notes-rather handy if you want to record your lecture or take photos of any projected notes. But,of course, ask for permission first.
Wikpanion
Use:research database
Can be used on:iPhone/Pad/iPod touch
Price:free(Wikipanion Plus for$4, 99,or 31.87 yuan)
Now,you don't necessarily have to go to a library or anywhere with computer services to do research work for your paper anymore. You can get access to the research databases just on your smartphone or tablet. Wkipanion gives you a simplified version of Wikipeda without leaving out any of the site's extra features. The normal links that you'd see to each section of an article xre no longer on the main screen. Instead,there's a small icon located at the bottom of the app,which can be used to access all the sections of an article. You can also open the links in Safari(苹果)Safari(浏览器).According to the developers' site, loading Wikipedia pages with Wikpanion is a lot faster than accessing the Wikipedia site from the iPhone's browses. To be honest,we agree.

【2012·泰安期末】For high school leavers starting out in the working world,it is very important to learn particular skills and practice how to behave in an interview or how to find all internship(实习).In some countries,schools have programs to help students onto the path to work.In the Unites States,however,such programs are still few and far between.
Research shows that if high schools provide career-related courses,students are likely to get higher earnings in later years.The students are more likely to stay in school,graduate and go on to higher education.
In Germany,students as young as 13 and 14 are expected to do internships.German companies work with schools to make sure that young people get the education they need for future employment.
But in America, education reform programs focus on how well students do in exams instead of bringing them into contact with the working world.Harvard Education school professor Robert
Schwartz has criticized education reformers for trying to place all graduates directly on the four-year college track.Schwartz argued that this approach leaves the country’s most vulnerable(易受影响的)kids with no jobs and no skills.
Schwartz believed that the best career programs encourage kids to go for higher education while also teaching them valuable practical skills at high sch001.James Madison High School in New York,for example,encourages students to choose classes on career—based courses.The school then helps them gain on—the-job experience in those fields while they’re still at high school.
However,even for teens whose schools encourage them to connect with work,the job market is daunting.In the US,unemployment rates for 16-to 19-year-olds are above 20 percent for the third summer in a row.
“The risk is that if teenagers miss out on the Summer job experience,they become part of this generation of teens who had trouble in landing a job,”said Michael,a researcher in the US.
1.In the author’s opinion.American high school leavers__________.
A.have enough career-related courses
B.need more career advice from their schools
C.perform better in exams than German students
D.can get higher earnings in later years
2.According to Robert Schwartz,_________.
A.there is no need for kids to go for higher education in the US
B.students should get contact with the working world at high school
C.education reform should focus on students’performance in exams
D.teenagers in the US can’t miss out on the summer job experience
3.What can be inferred from the text
A.Unemployment rates for US teenagers remain hi曲at the moment.
B. Students with career—based courses never have problems finding a job.
C. US companies work with schools to prepare young people for future employment.
D.High school leavers with no practical skills can’t find a job absolutely
4.What’S the main idea of the text
A.Arguments about recent US education reform.
B.Tips on finding jobs for high school leavers.
C.The lack of career—based courses in US high schools.
D.Advice for American high school leavers.
5·The underlined word “daunting” in Paragraph 6 most probably means___________.

It’s true that quite a few most respected scientific authorities have confirmed that the world is becoming hotter and hotter. There’s also strong evidence that humans are contributing to the warming. Countless recent reports have proved the same thing. For instance, a 2010 summary about the climate science by the Royal Society noted that: “The global warming over the last half-century has been caused mainly by human activity.”
You may not believe that humans could change the planet’s climate, but the basic science is well understood. Each year, billions of tons of greenhouse gases are released into the atmosphere because of human activity. As has been known for years, these gases hold heat that would otherwise escape to space, wrapping the planet in an invisible(看不见的) blanket.
Of course, the earth’s climate has always been changing due to “natural” factors such as volcanic eruption(熔化) or changes in solar, or cycles concerning the Earth’s going around the sun. According to the scientific research, however, the warming observed by now matches the pattern of warming we would expect from a build-up of greenhouse gas in the atmosphere – not the warming we would expect from other possible causes.
Even if scientists did discover another reasonable explanation for the warming recorded so far, that would give birth to a difficult question. As Robert Henson puts it: “If some newly discovered factor is to blame for the climate change, then why aren’t carbon dioxide and the other greenhouse gases producing the warming that basic physics tells us they should be ”
The only way to prove with 100% certainty that humans are responsible for global warming would be to run an experiment with two identical Earths – one with human influence and one without. That obviously isn’t possible, and so most scientists are careful not to state human influence as an absolute certainty.
1. In most scientists’ opinion, the global warming is mainly caused by ________.
A. solar activity
B. volcanic activity
C. natural factors
D. human factors
2. The text is developed by ________.
A. giving typical examples
B. following the order of space
C. analyzing a theory and arguing it
D. comparing and finding differences
3. The underline word “identical” in the last paragraph probably means ________.
A. totally different
B. exactly the same
C. extremely important
D. partly independent
4. Which of the following can be the best title
A. Are All the Scientists Really Scientific
B. Where Is Global Warming Leading Us to
C. Are Humans Definitely Causing Global Warming
D. What’s Relation of Global Warming and Greenhouse Gases

【2012·顺义素质展示】
Does a Tea Break Make You More Efficient
China has been drinking tea since the time of Shennong, 5,000 years ago. Britain’s relationship with tea is much shorter, but tea enjoys pride of place as the UK’s national drink. According to the UK Tea Council, British people drink an average of three cups a day or a national total of 165 million cups every day.
With figures like these, it is no surprise that time spent taking tea affects the working day in Britain. A recent survey found that 24 minutes a day are lost to making, buying and drinking tea and coffee. That is, 400 a year is lost in working hours per employee, or 190 days over a lifetime. So, should employers be worried about this lost working time, or does the tea break make up in other ways
One argument is that caffeine improves mental state: a drink of tea or coffee can make you active and focus on work.
Professor Rogers of the University of Bristol disagrees. After years of studying caffeine he sees nothing can prove that. “Workers would perform equally well if not drinking it at all,” he says. “But if they’re often drinking it and then go without, they’ll feel tired and won’t work well.”
Psychologist Cooper instead emphasizes the role tea breaks play in office life, and in building social relationships. “We need to make people more active and see other people. The tea break is one way of doing this,” says Cooper.
And Professor Rogers also points out the comfort effect of a hot drink: “We warm our hands on them on a cold day; they’re comforting and play a big role in our everyday life. Whatever the caffeine’s doing, I’d say these 24 minutes aren’t wasted.”
1. What is the passage mainly about
A. Tea Breaks cannot make people more active at work.
B. British people drink more tea than people in other countries.
C. Tea break plays an important role in people’s life in Britain.
D. A lot of time has been wasted drinking tea in the working day.
2. We learn from a recent survey that in Britain _______.
A. 400 is lost in working hours for each person
B. tea breaks take up 24 minutes in a working day
C. people spends 190 days drinking tea and coffee each year
D. people drink 165 million cups in working hours every day
3. What’s Psychologist Coopers’ attitude towards tea break
A. Doubtful. B. Uncertain. C. Negative. D. Positive.

2.B细节理解题。结合第一段最后一句、第二段第二句和第三句的内容可知最近的调查表明英国人一个工作日中喝茶和咖啡的时问有24分钟。
3.D推理判断题。根据倒数第二段的内容可推测cooper对喝茶休息持”肯定”态度。

【2012·浙江调研】Bonus(奖金) culture has become the subject of many studies nowadays. Many people have been angered by the way some bankers and high officials seem to have been rewarded for failure. Others find the idea of offering many-million-dollar bonuses morally disgusting.
But few have asked whether performance-related bonuses really do improve performance. The answer seems so obvious that even to ask the question can appear ridiculous. Indeed, in spite of all the complaints about them, financial encouragements continue to be introduced in more and more areas, from healthcare and public services to teaching and universities.
So it may come as a shock to many to learn that paying for results can actually make people perform badly in many circumstances, and that the more you pay, the worse they perform.
No one is arguing that bonuses can help companies and institutions attract and keep the best staff. Nor does anyone argue against the idea that you can encourage people to do specific tasks by linking payments to those tasks. Rather, the point is about how to get the best out of people. Do employees really perform better if you promise to pay them more for getting results
There are some obvious reasons why such payments can fail. It has been argued, for instance, that cash bonuses contributed to the financial crash, because traders had little enthusiasm to make sure that their companies enjoyed long-term survival.
Most bonus projects are poorly designed, says Professor Malcolm Higgs. He thinks the reason is that organisations try to keep bonus arrangements simple. Nevertheless, he thinks bonus projects can work as long as they link the interests of individual employees with the long-term goals of a business.
Bonuses can also encourage cheating. “Once you start making people’s rewards dependent on outcomes rather than behaviours, the evidence is people will do whatever they can to get those outcomes,” says Professor Edward Deci. “In many cases the high officials simply lied and cheated to make the stock (股票) price go up so they got huge bonuses.”
But the work of Deci and others suggests the problem with bonuses runs far deeper than poor design or cheating. In 1971, he asked students to solve puzzles, with some receiving cash prizes for doing well and others getting nothing. Deci found those offered cash were less likely to keep working on puzzles after they had done enough to get paid.
These studies suggest that offering rewards can stop people doing things for the pure joy of it. This was the basis for a series of books by Kohn in which he argues that rewarding children, students and workers with grades, scholarships and other “bribes” (贿赂) leads to low-quality work in the long run.
Those who believe in the power of bonuses fail to distinguish between inner drive and outside pressure — wanting to do something because you like it for itself in contrast to doing something because you want the reward, Kohn says. “It’s not just that these two are different, it’s often that the more you reward people for doing something, the more their inner drive tends to decline.”
A “do this and get that” approach might improve performance in the short term, but over longer periods it will always fail, Kohn says. People who receive bonus will naturally play safe, become less creative, cooperate less and feel less valued, he adds. What’s more, the studies also suggest that offering rewards can also stop people taking responsibility.
1. The effect of performance-related bonuses has not been well studied because people _______.
A. take the function of bonuses for granted
B. see that bonus offering is done everywhere
C. think financial encouragement is disgusting
D. are shocked by the practice of rewarding for failures
2. According to Malcolm Higgs, designs that _________ are the good ones.
A. drive people to finish short-term tasks
B. help to attract and keep good employees
C. link financial rewards with the quality of the outcomes
D. connect individual interests with long-term business goals
3. If a person plays safe to get a bonus, he is probably being ________.
A. more enthusiastic B. more risk-taking
C. less daring D. less responsible
4. Which of the following do you think the author would most probably agree with
A. Companies should make their bonus projects simple.
B. The benefit of bonus helps to get the best out of people.
C. The biggest problem with bonus is it creates cheating.
D. Bonus offering can stop people doing things for pure joy.
5. Which do you think is the best title of the passage
A. What Is Bonus B. Does Bonus Work
C. Why Bonus Offered D. How Bonus Works

4.D作者态度题。作者在第二段中提出了自己的观点,指出了奖金的弊端,下文则进行详细的剖析。根据倒数第三段第一句中的内容可知作者认为发奖金会阻止人们在做事过程中享受纯粹的快乐。
5 B主旨人意题。前两段是引题,概述的是人们对奖金的世俗看法,第二段则提出了相反的观点,下文则进行了深入的阐述,所以B项最能概括文章大意。

【2012·潍坊三县联考】 I am a strong believer that if a child is raised with approval, he learns to love himself and will be successful in his own way.
Several weeks ago,I was doing homework with my son in the third grade and he kept standing up from his chair to go over the math lines.I kept asking him to sit down, telling him that he would concentrate better. He sat but seconds later, as if he didn’t even notice he was doing it, he got up again.I was getting frustrated, but then it hit me.I started noticing his answers were much quicker and accurate when he stood up.Could he be more intent while standing up?
This made me start questioning myself and what I had been raised to believe. I was raised to believe that a quiet, calm child was a sure way to success.This child would have the discipline to study hard, get good grades and become someone important in life.
Now those same people perhaps come to realize that their kids are born with their own sets of DNA and personality traits,and all you can do is loving and accepting them.As parents,throughout their growing years and beyond that, we need to be our kids' best cheerleaders,guiding them and helping them find their way.
I have stopped asking my son to sit down and concentrate.Obviously, he is concentrating just in his own way and not mine.We need to learn to accept our kids' ways of doing things.Some way may have worked for me but doesn't mean we need to carry it through generations.There is nothing sweeter than being individual and unique.It makes us free and happy and that's just the way I want my kids to live their own life.
1. At the beginning, the author tried to keep his son seated in order to make him________.
A. pay more attention to his study B. keep silent in the room
C. finish his homework on time D. get right answers

4. The author has stopped asking his son to sit down because __________.
A. he has changed his traditional ideas B. his son wants to be unique
C. his son doesn’t follow his advice D. his son’s DNAis different
5. Which of the following would be the best title of the passage
A. Study hard and you'll be successful B. Be friendly to your children
C. Children's success in their own style D. Parents' help with their children's study
【答案与解析】作者通过辅导孩子写作业的经历意识到用传统的教育方式约束孩子已不再适用,父母应该引导和帮助孩子找到适合他们自身的学习方法,培养独特的个性,进而获得成功。
