专题十五阅读理解之社会生活、说理议论类1.【2015·湖北卷】A“I see you’ve got a bit of water on your coat,” said the man at the petrol station. “Is it raining out there?”“No, it’s pretty nice,” I replied, checking my sleeve. “Oh, right. A pony(马驹) bit me earlier.”As it happened, the bite was virtually painless: more the kind of small bite you might get from a naughty child. The pony responsible was queuing up for some ice cream in the car park near Haytor, and perhaps thought I’d jumped in ahead of him.The reason why the ponies here are naughty is that Haytor is a tourist-heavy area and tourists are constantly feeding the ponies foods, despite sighs asking them not to. By feeding the ponies, tourists increase the risk of them getting hit by a car, and make them harder to gather du ring the area’s annual pony drift(迁移).The purpose of a pony drift is to gather them up so their health can be checked, the baby ones can be stooped from feeding on their mother’s milk, and those who’ve gone beyond their limited area can be returned to their correct area. Some of them are also later sold, in order to limit the number of ponies according to the rules set by Natural England.Three weeks ago, I witnessed a small near-disaster a few mils west of here. While walking, I noticed a pony roll over on his back. “Hello!” I said to him, assuming he was just rolling for fun, but he was very still and, as I got closer, I saw him kicking his legs in the air and breathing heavily. I began to properly worry about him. Fortunately, I managed to get in touch with a Dartmoor’s Livestock Protection officer and send her a photo. The officer immediately sent a local farmer out to check on the pony. The pony had actually been trapped between two rocks. The farmer freed him, and he began to run happily around again.Dartmoor has 1,000 or so ponies, who play a critical role in creating the diversity of species in this area. Many people are working hard to preserve these ponies, and trying to come up with plans to find a sustainable(可持续的) future for one of Dartmoor’s m ost financially-troubled elements.51.Why are tourists asked not to feed the ponies?A. To protect the tourists from being bittenB. To keep the ponies off the petrol stationC. To avoid putting the ponies in dangerD. To prevent the ponies from fighting52.One of the purposes of the annual pony drift is ______________.A. to feed baby ponies on milkB. to control the number of poniesC. to expand the habitat for poniesD. to sell the ponies at a good price53.What as the author’s first reaction when he saw a pony roll on its back?A. He freed it from the trapB. He called a protection officerC. He worried about it very muchD. He thought of it as being naughty54.What does the author imply about the preservation of Dartmoor’s ponies?A. It lacks people’s i nvolvement.B. It costs a large amount of moneyC. It will affect tourism in Dartmoor.D. It has caused an imbalance of species【考点定位】夹叙夹议文阅读【名师点睛】夹叙夹议文是近几年高考经常涉及的一类文体，文章一方面叙述事情，另一方面又对事情加以评论，此类文章一般先提出论点，然后以事例说明论点，最后得出结论，或者一边叙述事情经过，一边对事情加以分析评论，文章最后一段用一句概括性的话点明主题，将叙述和议论有机地结合起来，其中“叙”是“议”的基础，“议”是“叙”的渗透和延伸。
2015届高考英语二轮专题训练 阅读理解(23)
2015届高考英语二轮专题训练：阅读理解（23）AA new age is coming. Call it what you will: the service economy, the information age, the knowledge society. It all translates to a fundamental change in the way we work. Already we’re partly there, the percentage of people who e arn their living by making things has fallen dramatically in the Western World. Today the majority of jobs in America, Europe and Japan are in the service industry, and the number is on the rise. More women are in the work force than ever before. There are more part-time jobs. More people are self-employed. But the range of the economic transformation can’t be measured by numbers alone, because it also is giving rise to important new way of thinking about the nature of work itself. Long-held ideas about jobs and careers, the skills needed to succeed, even the relation between individuals and employers — all these are being challenged. We have only to look behind us to get some sense of what may lie ahead. No one looking ahead 20 years possibly could have foreseen the ways in which a single invention, the chip, would transform our world thanks to its applications in personal computers, digital communications and factory robots. Tomorrow’s achievements in biotechnology, artificial intelligence or even some still unimagined technology could produce a similar wave of dramatic changes. But one thing is certain: information and knowledge will become even more valid, and the people who possess it, whether they work in manufacturing or services, will have the advantage and produce the wealth. Computer knowledge will become as basic a requirement as the ability to read and write. The ability to solve problems by applying information instead of performing routine tasks will be valued above all else. If you cast your mind ahead 10 years, information service will be superior. It will be the way you do your job.66. A characteristic of the new age mentioned in the passage is that .A. the service industry mainly relies on femalesB. manufacturing industries are steadily increasingC. more people are in the service industry than beforeD. the work in the service industry is more comfortable than that inmanufacturing industry67. Which of the following is true according to the passage?A. People’s traditional concepts about jobs need changing.B. The relation between employees and employers is becoming tense.C. More women than men are in the work force.D. Part-time jobs are more welcome than full-time jobs.68. By mentioning the invention of “the chip”, the author means to saythat .A. we haven’t paid enough attention to the importance of high technologyB. the chip is the most important invention todayC. the power of science and technology is beyond our imaginationD. it’s a great cha llenge to apply new inventions to our life69. We may draw a conclusion from the passage that .A. information will play a greater role in people’s work and daily life inthe futureB. we can foresee the future if technology develops fast enoughC. the ability of performing routine tasks gives you an advantage in workD. robots will replace people to do all the work both in manufacturing andservice industries70. The author’s attitude to the coming age is .A. doubtfulB. enthusiasticC. satisfiedD. uncertainB（2014安徽卷）Should we allow modern buildings to- be built next to older buildings in a historic area of a city? In order to answer this question, we must first examine whether people really want to preserve the historic feel of an area. Not all historical buildings are attractive. However, there may be other reasons for example, economic (经济的) reasons-why they should be preserved. So, let us assume thathistorical buildings are both attractive and important to the majority of people. What should we do then if a new building is needed?In my view, new architectural styles can exist perfectly well alongside an older style. Indeed, there are many examples in my own home town of Tours where modern designs have been placed very successfully next to old buildings. As long as the building in question is pleasing and does not dominate (影响) its surroundings too much, it often improves the attractiveness of the area.It is true that there are examples of new buildings which have spoilt (破坏) the area they are in, but the same can be said of some old buildings too. Yet people still speak against new buildings in historic areas. I think this is simply because people are naturally conservative(保守的)and do not like change.Although we have to respect people's feelings as fellow users of the buildings, I believe that it is the duty of the architect and planner to move things forward . If we always reproduced what was there before,we would all still be living in caves . Thus , I would argue against copying previous architectural styles and choose something fresh and different , even though that might be the more risky choice.A.What does the author say about historical buildings in the first paragraph? 1．Some of them are not attractive.2．Most of them ate too expensive to preserve.3．They are more pleasing than modern buildings.4．They have nothing to do with the historic feel of an area.A.Which of the following is true according to the author ?A.We should reproduce the same old buildings.B.Buildings should not dominate their surroundings.C.Some old buildings have spoilt the area they are in.D.No one understands why people speak against new buildings.A.By “move things forward ” in the last paragraph , the author probably means“”(1)Destroy old buildings(2)Put things in a different place(3)Choose new architectural styles(4)Respect people’s feelings for historical buildin gs1．What is the main purpose of the passage?（2）To explain why people dislike change.（3）To warn that we could end up living in caves.（4）To admit how new buildings have ruined their surroundings.To argue that modern buildings can be built in historic areas.CBrit ain’s seed bank, the only one in the world aiming to collect all of theplanet’s wild plant species, has reached its goal of banking 10 percent by 2010.The Millennium Seed Bank Project, run by Kew Gardens—one of the oldest botanicalgardens—will officially deposit the 24,200th species on Thursday, a pink, wildbanana from China.More than 50 countries are now on board with Kew's giant task but vast placesof the globe, including India and Brazil, still need to join in and donate seeds,director Paul Smith said. The seed bank is one of the largest and most diverse in the world with more than1.5 billion seeds. Its goal is to help protect the planet’s bio-diversity duringa time of climate change.The wild banana seed is under threat of extinction(灭绝) in southwest China fromagricultural development. It is a vital food source for Asian elephants andimportant for growing bananas for human consumption.Stored at minus-20 degrees centigrade, so they can last for thousands of years,the seeds await the day that scientists hope never comes—when the species nolonger exist in the wild.It is a race against time, Smith said, because in the last decade alone, 20 plantsheld in the bank have already been wiped out in the wild. He estimates that betweena third and a quarter will become extinct this century."It is urgent and it is happening now. An area, the size of England, is cleared of primary vegetation（植被）every year." Smith said.Because most of the world's food and medicines come from nature, protecting wild plant species is quite important, scientists say. There are already many other seed banks safeguarding food crops, which only account for 0.6 percent of plant diversity.For Kew's next goal—to collect a quarter of wild varieties by 2020—the botanists need 10 million pounds a year, or a further 100 million pounds on top of the 40 million they have already been granted.56. What’s the final purpose of the Britain’s seed bank?A. To collect enough money for the project.B. To safeguard food crops.C. To protect wild plants from extinction.D. To help scientists study wild plants.57. The wild banana seed in China is in danger because of _______.A. the expanding of farming workB. the climate change in this areaC. the large number of Asian elephantsD. human’s large consumption58. We can learn from the passage that _______.A. the seeds in the bank can be used now and then all over the worldB. India and Brazil haven’t joined in the Seed Bank Project at presentC. there is only one seed bank in the world at presentD. the wild plants in places like India and China will never die out59. What does the underlined word “it” in paragraph 7 refer to?A. The extinction of plant species.B. The Millennium Seed Bank Project.C. Britain’s seed bank.D. Kew Garden s’ next goal.60. Which of the following information isn’t mentioned in the passage?A. The global partnership of collecting wild plant species.B. The temperature condition of the conservative wild plant species.C. The government’s financial support for the seed bank project.D. Scientists’ concern on the extinct wild plant species.DOne of the major problems in our economy is inflation, a situation in which prices are going up faster than wages. Thus, a person has to work more hours to pay for the same thing.For example, let’s say that this year a loaf of bread costs $1.00 and the average salary in the United States is $10.00 per hour. That means a person could earn enough money to buy a loaf of bread in one-tenth of an hour, or six minutes, Then, halfway through the year, The price of bread goes up to $1.25, while wages stay the same. That means that a person how has to work one-eighth of an hour, or seven and a half minutes to buy the same loaf of bread.Now let’s say that at the end of the year, wages go up to$11.00 per hour, but the price of bread goes up to $1.50. Now a person has to work more than one-seventh of an hour, over eight minutes to but the same loaf of bread. As you can see, if more and more work time is spent earning money to buy loaves of bread, employees will have less money left over to buy other things Inflation means that the same money buys fewer things and everybody’s standard of living goes down, even if salaries are going up.Some kinds of inflation are worse than others, Moderate inflation does not distort（扭曲）relative prices or incomes seriously, Galloping inflation happens rapidly, say at a rate of 100 percent or more within a year. And then there is hyperinflation－inflation so serious that people try to get rid of their currency before prices rise further and make the money worthless. Times of hyperinflation are usually characterized by social and political disorder.1．The passage mainly wants to .A．list major economic problems B．discuss something about inflationC．explain why bread prices increase D．state the types of inflation 2．Why is“a loaf of bread”repeatedly mentioned?A．To express dissatisfaction with the price of bread.B．To show the effect of price changes.C．To compare bread with other food.D．To explain social and political disorder.3．What happens when prices go up but salaries remain the same?A．The government will do more about the economy.B．Workers might lose their jobs of they show dissatisfaction.C．People will save money rather than spend it.D．People must work longer to buy the same things.4．Which of the followings belongs to the type of moderate inflation?A．People try to get rid of their currency.B．Inflation occurs at rate of 100 percent in a yearC．Incomes and relative prices rise slightly.D．There is social and political disorder.A.66—70 CACABB.【考点】考察文化类阅读【文章大意】是否可以在历史遗迹的地方建设现代化的建筑？文章对此问题进行了讨论，作者如果在不破坏原来情况的基础上我们是可以这样做的，因为很多现代建筑能够提升城市的品味。

The result is overcrowding on the road system, which is one of the problems the local governments are faced with.[2] When people travel to other towns, the problem might be relieved by getting them to park outside the town. Buses could be provided to take them to the centre. These Park and Ride projects are increasingly popular in the UK. At Southerton, for example, a council-funded project led to a 15% drop in city centre traffic over five mouths.[3] What the council found, though, was that the project proved somewhat unpopular with shop owners in the area outside the centre. Many of their shops relied on passing car drivers for some of their trade. As the number of people driving past dropped, so did their incomes.[4] Making car driving expensive is another way of ________________________. Road taxes tend to mean that people use their cars less. Fining drivers who are in areas where cars have been banned can also tend to leave their cars behind.[5] However, one thing has to be got right for any solution to succeed. If we expect people to give up the habit of driving, we must give them an alternative they can rely on. Constant delays, unannounced changes to the timetable and sudden cancellations all discourage peoplefrom using public transport. People will only see it as a real choice if the buses and trains are on time.66.

What should people do when traveling to other towns according to the Park and Ride projects?( no more than 14 words)___________________________________________________________________68.

We do this because we know for sure that going on vacations must be good for us. Research proves this feeling without a doubt. Vacations help us perform better at work, improve our sleep quality and cushion us against depression.[2] Yet, despite these benefits, many of us return home with a feeling that our last vacation was OK - but not great. In order to change this, some mistakes should be avoided. A classic one for vacation planners is attempting to maximize value for money by planning trips that have too many components (组成部分).Perhaps you’re planning a trip to Europe, seven cities in 10 days，and you realize it will cost only a little more to add two more destinations to the list sounds fine in theory, but hopping from one place to the next hardly gives an opportunity to experience what psychologists call mindfulness-time to take in our new surroundings, time to be present and absorb our travel experiences. Another mistake is that we worry too much about strategic issues such as how to find a good flight deal，how to get from A to B，or which destinations to add or subtract from our journey. These issues may seem important, but our psychological state of mind is far more important.[3] Actually, vacation happiness is based on the following top rules. First, choose your travel companions wisely, because nothing contributes more significantly to a trip than the right companions. Second, don’t spend your vacation time in a p lace where everything is too expensive so as to maintain a positive mood. Third, shop wisely, for meaningful experiences provide more long-term happiness than physical possessions.阅读理解2014新题赏析(阅读表达;任务型阅读)讲义参考答案题一：66.

2015届高考英语二轮复习优化训练：阅读理解AImagine looking for your lost dog. You step into a cave. Butinstead of the dog, you find beautiful cave paintings. You seepaintings of horses, deer, and bison drawn in black, brown, redand yellow. Your first question would probably be“Who didthis? ”This is what happened to four French boys in 1940. They foundthe Lascaux caves. The paintings the boys discovered in thosecaves are about 17, 000 years old. They were drawn by the ancientpeople called Cro-Magnon(克鲁马努人).Cro-Magnons looked much like people of today. They used tools, such as fishing nets. But their art was extremely good. The main cave at Lascaux is called Great Hall of Bulls, which has a picture of bulls and horses in many colours. The largest animal is 18 feet long. There are smaller animals, such as bison, stags and a bear. There is also a strange spotted two-horned(两只角的)animal.To the left of the main cave are the most famous paintings that are the drawings of animals in many different colours. One painting is called Little Horses. On the ceiling are horses and cows. The most unusual sight may be in the Shaft of the Dead Man where there is a rhinoceros, a carefully drawn dead man, an injured bison and a bird.Why did Cro-Magnon artists do these beautiful drawings on cave walls? Did the drawings call upon some magic power? Did the Cro-Magnon people hope that the drawings would bring good luck? There is one thing the paintings seem to tell us. The Cro-Magnons were interested in the world. They looked at beauty and they understood it.【文章大意】本文介绍了法国Lascaux岩洞壁画的相关情况。

I was able to buy it a little over a year ago because I had my relatives give me money for my birthday instead of clothes that wouldn’t fit. I let a salesclerk fool me into buying a discontinued model. I realized this a day later, when I saw newspaper advertisements for the set at seventy-five dollars less than I had paid. The set worked so beautiful when I first got it home that I would keep it on until stations signed off for the night. Fortunately, I didn’t get any channels showing all-night movies or I would never have gotten to bed.Then I started developing a problem with the set that involved static(静电) noise. For some reason, when certain shows switched into a commercial, a loud noise would sound for a few seconds. Gradually, this noise began to appear during a show, and to get rid of it, I had to change to another channel and then change it back. Sometimes this technique would not work, and I had to pick up the set and shake it to remove the sound. I actually began to build up my arm muscles(肌肉) shaking my set.When neither of these methods removed the static noise, I would sit helplessly and wait for the noise to go away. At last I ended up hitting the set with my first, and it stopped working altogether. My trip to the repair shop cost me $62, and the sit is working well now, but I keep expecting more trouble.21. Why did the author say he was fooled into buying the TV set?A.He got an older model than he had expected.B.He couldn’t return it when it was broken.C.He could have bought it at a lower price.D.He failed to find any movie shows on it.22.

Something rare is worth a large amount of money.BWhen I was nine years old, I loved to go fishing with my dad. But the only thing that wasn’t very fun about it was that he could catch many fish while I couldn’t catch anything. I usually got pretty upset and kept asking him why. He always answered, "Son, if you want to catch a fish, youhave to think like a fish〞, I remember being even more upset then because, "I’m not a fish!〞I didn’t know how to think like a fish. Besides, I reasoned, how could what I think influence what a fish does?As I got a little older I began to understand what my dad really meant. So, I read some books on fish. And I even joined the local fishing club and started attending the monthly meetings. I learned that a fish is a cold-blooded animal and therefore is very sensitive to water temperature. That is why fish prefer shallow water to deep water because the former is warmer. Besides, water is usually warmer in direct sunlight than in the shade. Yet, fish don’t have any eyelids<眼皮> and the sun huts their eyes… The more I understood fish, the more I became effective at f inding and catching them..When I grew up and entered the business world, I remember hearing my first boss say, "We all need to think like sales people.〞But it didn’t completely make sense. My dad never once said, "If you want to catch a fish you need to think like a fisherman.〞What he said was, "You need to think like a fish.〞Years later, with great efforts to promote long-term services to people much older and richer than me, I gradually learned what we all need is to think more like customers. It is not an easy job. I will show you how in the following chapters.31. Why was the author upset in fishing trips when he was nine?A. He could not catch a fish.B. His father was not patient with him.C. His father did not teach him fishing.D. He could not influence a fish as his father did.32. What did the author’s father really mean?A. To read about fish.B. To learn fishing by oneself.C. To understand what fish think.D. To study fishing in many ways.33. According to the author, fish are most likely to be found _________.A. in deep water on sunny daysB. in deep water on cloudy daysC. in shallow water under sunlightD. in shallow water under waterside trees.34. After entering the business world, the author found _________.A. it easy to think like a custome rB. his father’s fishing advice inspiringC. his first boss’s sales ideas reasonableD. it difficult to sell services to poor people35. This passage most likely comes from _________.A. a fishing guideB. a popular sales bookC. a novel on childhoodD. a mil lionaire’s biographyCDaniel Anderson, a famous psychologist, believes it’s important to distinguish television’s influences on children from those of the family. We tend to blame TV, he says, for problems it doesn’t really cause, overlooking our own roles in shaping children’s minds.One traditional belief about television is that it reduces a child’s ability to think and to understand the world. While watching TV, children do not merely absorb words and images <影像>. Instead, they learn both explicit and hidden meanings from what they see. Actually, children learn early the psychology of characters in TV shows. Furthermore, as many teachers agree, children understand far more when parents watch TV with them, explaining new words and ideas. Yet, most parents use an educational program as a chance to park their kids in front of the set and do something in another room.Another argument against television is that it replaces reading as a form of entertainment. But according to Anderson, the amount of time spent watching television is not related to reading ability. TV doesn’t take the place of reading for most children; it takes the place of similar sorts of recreation, such as listening to the radio and playing sports. Things like parents’ educational backgrou nd have a stronger influence on a child’s reading. "A child’s reading ability is best predicted by how much a parent reads.〞Anderson says.Traditional wisdom also has it that heavy television-watching lowers IQ <智商> scores and affects school performance. But here, too, Anderson notes that no studies have proved it. In fact, research suggests that it’s the other way around. "If you’re smart young, you’ll watch less TV when you’re older,〞Anderson says. Yet, people of lower IQ tend to be lifelong television viewers.For years researchers have attempted to show that television is dangerous to children. However, by showing that television promotes none of the dangerous effects as conventionallybelieved, Anderson suggests that television cannot be condemned without considering other influences.36. By watching TV, children learn _________.A. images through wordsB. more than explicit meaningsC. more about images than wordsD. little about people’s psychology37. An educational program is best watched by a child _________.A. on his ownB. with other kidsC. with his parentsD. with his teachers38. Which of the following is most related to children’s reading ability?A. Radio-listeningB. Television-watchingC. Parents’ reading listD. Parents’ educational background39. Anderson believed that _________.A. the more a child watches TV, the smarter he isB. the younger a child is, the more he watches TVC. the smarter a child is, the less likely he gets addicted to TVD. the less a child watches TV, the better he performs at school40. What is the main purpose of the passage?A. To advise on the educational use of TV.B. To describe TV’s harmful effects on children.C. To explain traditional views on TV influences.D. To present Anderson’s unconventional ideas.DIt was once common to regard Britain as a society with class distinction. Each class had unique characteristics.In recent years, many writers have begun to speak the 'decline of class' and 'classless society' in Britain. And in modern day consumer society everyone is considered to be middle class.But pronouncing the death of class is too early. A recent wide-ranging society of public opinion found 90 percent of people still placing themselves in particular class; 73 percent agreed that class was still a vital part of British society; and 52 percent thought there were still sharp class differences. Thus, class may not be culturally and politically obvious, yet it remains an important part of British society. Britain seems to have a love of stratification.One unchanging aspect of a British person's class position is accent. The words a person speaks tell her or his class. A study of British accents during 1970s found that a voice sounding like a BBC newsreader was viewed as the most attractive voice, Most people said this accent sounded 'educated' and 'soft'. The accents placed at the bottom in this study, on the other hand, were regional〔地区的〕city accents. These accents were seen as 'common' and 'ugly'. However, a similar study of British accents in the US turned these results upside down and placed some regional accents as the most attractive and BBC English as the least. This suggests that British attitudes towards accent have deep roots and are based on class prejudice.In recent years, however, young upper middle-class people in London, have begun to adopt some regional accents, in order to hide their class origins. This is an indication of class becoming unnoticed. However, the 1995 pop song 'Common People' puts forward the view that though a middle-class person may 'want to live like common people' they can never appreciate the reality ofa working-class life.41. A recent study of public opinion shows that in modern Britain ________.A. it is time to end class distinctionB. most people belong to middle classC. it is easy to recognize a person’s classD. people regard themselves socially different42. The word stratification in Paragraph 3 is closest in meaning to ________.A. varietyB. authorityC. divisionD. qualification43. The study in the US showed that BBC English was regarded as _________.A. regionalB. educatedC. prejudicedD. unattractive44. British attitudes towards accent _________.A. have a long traditionB. are based on regional statusC. are shared by the AmericansD. have changed in recent years45. What is the main idea of the passage?A. The middle class is expandingB. A person’s accent reflects his classC. Class is a key part of British societyD. Each class has unique characteristics.信息匹配〔共5小题；每小题2分,满分10分〕请阅读下列应用文与相关信息,并按照要求匹配信息.请在答题卡上将对应题号的相应选项字母涂黑.A BA Night of Glamor and Intrigue at Shanghai Bund in 1930To celebrate Asia heritage month, Trendy New York is proud to present "Cheongsam Night out--A date with Cheongsam beauties in Shanghai Bund 1930〞.May 16, 9:00 PM-May 17, 12:00 AM.

第Ⅰ卷第一部分听力（共两节，满分30分）略第二部分阅读理解（共两节，满分40分）AMy color television has given me nothing but a headache. I was able to buy it a little over a year ago because I had my relatives give me money for my birthday instead of clothes that wouldn’t fit. I let a salesclerk fool me into buying a discontinued model. I realized this a day later, when I saw newspaper advertisements for the set at seventy-five dollars less than I had paid. The set worked so beautiful when I first got it home that I would keep it on until stations signed off for the night. Fortunately, I didn’t get any channels showing all-night movies or I would never have gotten to bed.Then I started developing a problem with the set that involved static(静电) noise. For some reason, when certain shows switched into a commercial, a loud noise would sound for a few seconds. Gradually, this noise began to appear during a show, and to get rid of it, I had to change to another channel and then change it back. Sometimes this technique would not work, and I had to pick up the set and shake it to remove the sound. I actually began to build up my arm muscles(肌肉) shaking my set.When neither of these methods removed the static noise, I would sit helplessly and wait for the noise to go away. At last I ended up hitting the set with my first, and it stopped working altogether. My trip to the repair shop cost me $62, and the sit is working well now, but I keep expecting more trouble.21. Why did the author say he was fooled into buying the TV set?A.He got an older model than he had expected.B.He couldn’t return it when it was broken.C.He could have bought it at a lower price.D.He failed to find any movie shows on it.22. Which of the following an best replace the phrase “signed off” in paragraph 1?A.ended all their programsB.provided fewer channelsC.changed to commercialsD.showed all-night movies23. How did the author finally get this TV set working again?A.By shaking and hitting itB.By turning it on and offC.By switching channelsD.By having it repaired24. How does the author sound when telling the story?A.CuriousB.AnxiousC.CautiousD.Humorous【答案】21. C22. A23. D24. D【解析】23.D 细节理解题。

金题精讲It’s not easy being a teenager(13至19岁青少年)---nor is it easy being the parent of a teenager. You can make your child feel angry, hurt or misunderstood by what you say without realizing it yourself. It is important to give your child the space he needs to grow while gently letting him know that you’ll still be there for hi m when he needs you.Expect a lot from your child，just not everything. Except for health and safety problems，such as drug use or careless driving，consider everything else open to discussion. If your child is unwilling to discuss something，don’t insist he tell you what’s on his mind. The more you insist，the more likely that he’ll calm up. Instead，let him attempt to solve(解决)things by himself. At the same time，remind him that you’re always there for him should he seek advice or help. Show respect for your teenager’s privacy(隐私).Never read his mail or listen to personal conversations.Teach your teenager that the family phone is for the whole family. If your child talks on the family’s telephone for too long，tell him he can talk for l5 minutes，but then he must stay off the phone for at least all equal period of time. This not only frees up the line so that other family members can make and receive calls，but teaches your teenager moderation(节制).Or if you are open to the idea，allow your teenager his own phone that he pays for with his own pocket money or a part-time job.68. The main purpose of the text is to tell parents_________.A. how to get along with a teenagerB. how to respect a teenagerC. how to understand a teenagerD. how to help a teenager grow up69.
