Text 1 Football player Adrian Peterson was indicted for negligent injury to a child after he whippedhis 4-year-old son bloody with a slim tree branch in September as punishment for pushing one of his siblings.The football player,and many others,seemed surprised that police got involved in what seemed to him a family matter."I am someone that disciplined his child and did not intend to cause him any injury,"Peterson said in a statement afierwards.The incident turncd up the heat under a national argument about how to discipline children.From conscrvatlve talk show host Sean Hannity to former basketball champion Charles Barkley,some leaped to Pctcrson's defense.Others,including former NFL player Cris Carter and child development experts,argued ihat it is a tradition that should come to an end.But the research findings,says Alan Kazdin,professor of Psychology and Cliild Psychiatry at Yalc University.are overwhelming.Depending on how frequent and how aggressive,spanking can be dcstructive long before it becomes a clear cut case of child abuse.In a University of California study,infants who were often spanked subsequently had higher levels in the stress hormone cortisol when faced with a new experience,compared to children who weren't spanked.Studies show that spankings result in higher production of stress hormones,which can make children less able to deal with other stresses."Moderate to heavy spanking(twice a week or more)predicts later mental and physical health and academic problems,"says Kazdin."It can change the immune system.Adults who as children were spanked regularly die at a younger age of cancer,heart disease,and respiratory illnesses.Spanking doesn't change a child's behavior,and even ifit did,there are so many hazards to it that it's still not an appropriate method of discipline."lf studies of any other phenomenon had such consistent scientific results,they'd be adopted wholesale."If it were a diet pill,everyone would be taking it,"says Elizabeth Gershoff,associate professor of human development and family sciences at the University of Texas at Austin,who studies how discipline affects children's development."But Americans don't trust research when it comes to parenting and family life.We don't like to be told how to run our families."24.What can be inferred from the last paragraph?

A.American families will probably continue spanking their children.
B.Expert advices are welcomed in America.
C.American parents are glad to change their approaches.
D.Americans never trust research results.

参考答案

参考解析
解析:推理判断题。由定位词定位到最后一段最后两句话,“但是,一旦问题涉及父母和家庭生活,美国人就会不相信研究结果。人们不愿意在管理家庭上听从别人的意见”,由该句可知,美国家庭在处理家庭事务的时候会更偏向于遵从自己的想法,故选A项。【干扰排除】最后一段说的是美国人很乐意接受有意义的研究成果,但是一旦涉及家庭生活,他们便不再相信研究成果了,故C项和D项可排除;B项Expert advices原文并未提及,属于过度推理,故可排除。

考题 If parents bring up a child with the sole aim of turning the child into a genius, they will cause a big problem. According to several leading educational psychologists, this is one of the biggest mistakes which ambitious parents make. Generally, the child will be only too aware of what the parent expects, and will fail. Unrealistic parental expectations can cause great damage to children. However, if parents are not too unrealistic about what they expect their children to do, but are ambitious in a reasonable way, the child may succeed in doing very well—especially if the parents are very supportive of their child. Michael Lee Chao Tin is very lucky. He is crazy about music, and his parents help him a lot by taking him to concerts and arranging private piano and violin lessons for him. They even drive him 50 kilometers a week for violin lessons. Although Michael’s mother knows very little about music, Michael’s father is a good trumpet player. However, he never makes Michael enter music competitions if he is unwilling. Michael’s friend, Winston Chiu Fang Weng, however, is not so lucky. Although both his parents are successful musicians, they set too high a standard for Winston. They want their son to be as successful as they are and so they enter him for every piano competition held. They are very unhappy when he does not win. “When I was your age, I used to win every competition I entered,” Winston’s father tells him. Winston is always afraid that he will disappoint his parents and now he always seems quiet and unhappy.61.Which of the following mistakes are parents likely to make according to the passage?A.To neglect their child’s education.B.To help their child to be a genius.C.To expect too much of their child.D.To make their child become a musician.62.What should parents do in order to help their children succeed?A.They should push the children into achieving a lot.B.They should try to have their own successful careers.C.They should arrange private lessons for their children.D.They should understand and help their children in difficult times.63.Which of the following statements about Michael Lee’s parents is true?A.His father is a very poor player of trumpet.B.His parents are quite rich and have a car.C.His parents help him in a proper way.D.His mother knows much about music.64.Winston’s parents push their son so much that __________.A.he has succeeded in a lot of competitionsB.he is unhappy because he is not self-confidentC.he feels he cannot learn anything about music from themD.he has already become a better musician than his father65.The two examples illustrate the principle that __________.A.successful parents often have unsuccessful childrenB.it is important to let children develop in the way they wantC.parents who want their child to be musical should also be good musiciansD.the more money spent on a child’s education, the better the child will do

考题 Passage OneQuestions 21 to 25 are based on the following passage.How often one hears children wishing they were grown up, and old people wishing they were young again. Each age has its pleasures and its pains, and the happiest person is the one who enjoys what each age gives him without wasting his time in useless regrets.Childhood is a time when there are few responsibilities. If a child has good parents, he is well fed, looked after and loved. It is unlikely that he will ever again in his life be given so much without having to do anything in return. In addition, life is always presenting new things to the child-things that have lost their interest for older people because they are too well known. A child finds pleasure in playing in the rain, or in the snow. His first visit to the seaside is a marvelous adventure.But a child has his pains:he is not so free to do as he wishes as he thinks older people are; he is continually being told what to do and what not to do.Therefore, a child is not happy as he wishes to be.When the young man starts to earn his own living, he becomes free from the discipline of school and parents; but at the same time he is forced to accept.responsibilities. With no one to pay for his food, his clothes, or his room, he has to work if he wants to live comfortably. If he spends most of his time playing about in the way that he used to as a child, he will go hungry. And if he breaks the laws of society as he used to break the laws of his parents, he may get himself into trouble. If, however, he works hard, goes by the law and has good health, he may feel satisfied in seeing himself make steady progress in his job and in building up for himself his own position in society.Old age has always been thought of as the worst age to be; but it is not necessary for the old to be unhappy. With old age comes wisdom and the ability to help others with advice wisely given. The old can have the joy of seeing their children making progress in life; they can watch their grandchildren growing up around them; and, perhaps best of all, they can, if their life has been a useful one, feel the happiness of having come through the battle of life safely and of having reached a time when they can lie back and rest, leaving everything to others.21.The happiest people should be those whoA.face up to difficulties in lifeB.hope to be young againC.enjoy life in different agesD.wish to be grown up

考题 问答题Practice 4  Charles Darwin didn’t want to murder God, as he once put it. But he did. He didn’t want to defy his fellow Cantabrigians, his gentlemanly Victorian society, his devout wife. But he did. He waited 20 years to publish his theory of natural selection, but—fittingly, after another scientist threatened to be first—he did.  Before Darwin, most people accepted some version of biblical creation. Humans were seen as the apotheosis of godly architecture. Humans could thus be an accident of natural selection, not a direct product of God. Worries about how much his theory would shake society exacerbated the strange illnesses he suffered. It’s also worth noting that Darwin’s life wasn’t Darwinian: he achieved his wealth through inheritance, not competition, and some might say his sickly children suffered because they were inbred.  Darwin’s theories still provoke opposition. One hundred and forty years after The Origin of Species, backers of creationism have made a comeback in states like Kansas, pushing evolution out of the schoolroom. Yet Darwinism remains one of the most successful scientific theories ever promulgated. There is hardly an element of humanity—not capitalism, not gender relations, certainly not biology—that can be fully understood without its help.

考题 单选题请阅读 Passage 1,完成第 21~25小题。Passage 1Frenchmen attach great importance to education.They regard the cultivation of children as a social obligation.French education mixes warm romantic humor into its careful and severe education.I have ever heard such a story:It took place in an ordinary French family.One day, when the boy was playing basketball, the ball hit a vase off the shelfwith its mouth knocked off a large piece.The vase was an antique handed down through generations from Bourbon Dynasty.To cover the great trouble, the boy glued the pieces together and put the vase back to its place panic-stricken.That evening his mother noticed the change on it.At dinnertime, she asked her boy if he had broken the vase.Being scared of punishment, the boy said by a sudden inspiration that a cat jumped in from the window and knocked the vase off the shelf.His mother was quite clear that her son was lying, for all the windows were closed before her leaving.However, she just said that it seemed it was her carelessness not to have the window tightly closed.Before going to bed, the boy found a note on his bed, on which he was asked to go to the study. The boy had thought he had gotten by under false pretences, but then felt he couldn't dodge the misfortune.Now that he had already lied, he made up his mind no matter what his mother said, he would disavow to the end.On seeing her son enter in fear, his mother took out a chocolate box and gave one piece of the chocolates to her son.“Baker, this chocolate is a reward for you, for you created a cat with your special imagination.” Then, she put another chocolate in his hand.“This chocolate is a reward for your ability to restore.But the glue you used is for restoring paper materials; to restore a vase needs higher special technique.Tomorrow, let's bring the vase to the artists to see how they make a craftwork intact as it was.”With that, she took the third chocolate, “The last chocolate stands for my apology.I shouldn't have laid a vase in a place where it could so easily fall down, I wish you hadn't been scared, my little sweetheart.”“But, Mom, I...”The boy tried to make something clear, but he awkwardly uttered nothing but some words.“Our talk is over.Good night, Baker!” She gave a soft kiss on his forehead and walked out of the study.The following days were the same as before.The only change was that the boy had never told a lie since then.No scolding.It looks unimaginably queer.In fact, the three chocolates are the alarm in the boy's heart all the tune.Sometimes, no punishment itself is a kind of punishment.What does the author intend to tell us?A Spare the rod and spoil the child.B Forgiveness with love is a good education.C An apology is more powerful than a punishment.D The cultivation of children is parents' priority.
