    The Privileged Children

    Life really should be one long journey of joy for children who are born with a world of wealth at their tiny feet.But experts on psychological research now believe that silver spoons can leave a bitter taste.If suicide statistics are a sign of happiness,then the rich are a miserable lot. Figures show that it is the rich who most often do away with themselves.
    Dr. Robert Coles,an internationally famous doctor,is the world's top expert on the influence of money on children.He has written a well-received book on the subject,The Privileged Ones,and his research shows that too much money in the family can cause as many problems as too little."Ohviously there are certain advantages to being rich,"says the 53-year-old doctor,"such as better health,education and future work expectations.But most important is the quality of family life. Money can't buy love."
    It can buy a lot of other things,though,and that's where the trouble starts.Rich kjds have so much to choose from that they often become confused.Their parents' over favoring can make them spoiled.They tend to travel more than other children,from home to home and country to country, which often makes them feel restless.
    "But privileged children do have a better sense of their positions in the world,"adds Mr Coles, "and they are more self-assured."
    Today's rich parents perhaps have realized that their riches can be more of a burden than a favor to their children.So their priority is to ensure that their families are as rich in love as they are in money.

    This article is written mainly to tell readers that_________.
    A:the rich are more likely to do away with themselves
    B:money can bring a lot of things,including love
    C:life is always happy for children of rich parents
    D:rich parents should realize what important in the family is love rather than money

    答案:D
    解析:
    从文章的叙述我们知道财富可以是恩赐也可以是负担,从第一段最后两句我们知道有钱人并非都幸福。因此选项D是正确的。选项A错误是因为有钱的孩子确实会常常旅游,但文章并没有说是否喜欢旅行。选项B错误:文章第二段最后一句说了钱买不了爱。选项C错误:第一段最后一句只是说有钱人最常自杀,却没说有钱的孩子会自杀。
    文章第二段最后一句提到财富会给人带来很多益处,但是最重要的家庭生活的质量却往往不是他们能享受的。因此选项C是正确的。选项A、选项B和选项D都不正确。
    选项B、C、D在文章中都提到过,只有选项A不正确。文章没有提过有钱人家和穷人家一样缺少爱。
    silver spoon是一个固定说法,并不真是指银子做的勺子,而是指财富,如 be born with silver spoon指的是“生在富有人家”。因此只有选项C是正确的。
    文章最后一句讲到“富有的家长们也意识到要让他们家庭里的爱同金钱一样多”,而且第二段最后也提到家庭生活的质量是最重要的,因此选项D是正确的。其他三个选项的叙述都是错误的。

  • 第8题:

    We first think of the traditional or nuclear family.This is a two-generation family,the father and the mother and their own children.Most couples wanted to have four children,two boys,two girls.
    Some nuclear families,however,may add one or more grandparents to come to live with them,that is three generations.This kind of family with grandparents,parents,and grandchildren is called an extended family.This family type was not very common during the later half of the twentieth century,but it's becoming more common now as an elderly grandparent moves in to live with a son or daughter.This is more possible now that American homes have become larger.What is interesting,however,is that after the grandchildren move out of the home and start their own families,this extended family shrinks back to a nuclear family,with just two generations again living together,a grandparent and parents,with the grandchildren coming only for occasional visits.
    Now,the fatherless or motherless family is one kind of what we call a single-parent family.In the fatherless family it's just the mother and her children.As I said,this can be the result of the husband's death,of an unmarried mother,of a separation or divorce.There are also a growing number of motherless families--where the father raises the children,for any of the same reasons.A motherless family may also be fatherless,but still a family with one adult.This is becoming more common in the big cities where a grandmother will raise her daughter's children while the daughter goes elsewhere to work.
    One other new kind of family is becoming increasingly more common.A single parent with one or more children will marry again.Perhaps the other parent is also a single parent.Together they will start what is called a blended family,which blends together or combines the children from two other families.

    Who usually looks after the children in a both motherless and fatherless family in America?

    A.The children's aun
    B.The children's nursery or schoo
    C.The children's grandmothe
    D.The children's neighbou

    答案:C
    解析:
    第二自然段后半部分写到:“A motherless family may also be fatherless,but still a family with one adult.This is becoming more common in the big cities where a grandmother will raise her daughter’s children while the daughter goes elsewhere to work.”由此可见,本题选C。

  • 第9题:

    资料:“I wouldn’t be here today if not for the generosity of strangers,” said Michael Moritz, while announcing a major donation to Oxford University. A former Time Magazine reporter, Mr. Moritz left journalism to become one of the most successful venture capitalists in Silicon Valley. Through Sequoia Capital, the firm he joined in 1986 and has led for many years, Mr. Moritz was an early investor in Google, Yahoo, PayPal and LinkedIn. His personal fortune is estimated at well over $1 billion. Oxford University announced last Wednesday that he and his wife, the novelist Harriet Heyman, donated £75 million, or $115 million, to fund a new scholarship program aimed at providing financial aid to students from low-income backgrounds. Behind the headlines about the size of the gift was a family story of immigration, education and a sense of obligation that transcended generations.
      “I grew up in Cardiff, went to an ordinary comprehensive school, and was the only pupil in my year to go to Oxbridge,” Mr. Moritz explained. “My father was plucked as a teenager from Nazi Germany and was able to attend a very good school in London on a scholarship.” In an interview afterward, Mr. Moritz said that his father, Alfred, had grown up in Munich, where his father was a judge who lost his post when the Nazis came to power. Mr. Moritz’s mother, Doris, was part of the kindertransport, a rescue effort that took about 9,300 unaccompanied, mostly Jewish children from Germany, Austria, Poland and Czechoslovakia to Britain shortly before the outbreak of World War Ⅱ. “ My father’s cousin, Fritz Ursell, was also rescued from terrible circumstances. When he came to Britain, he also benefited from scholarships, and grew up to become a member of the Royal Society,” said Mr. Moritz.
      “It is all too easy not to remember, ” said Mr. Moritz, who has a history major and the editor of Isis, Oxford’s student literary magazine, as an undergraduate before completing an MBA at the Wharton School of University of Pennsylvania. In May, Mr. Moritz announced that he had been diagnosed with a rare medical condition which is incurable. But he preferred not to name the disease. “I felt I wanted to be my partners and with the public. But I didn’t want every ghoul on the internet following me.”
      Charlotte Anderson, a second-year student studying German at Oxford and the first person in her family to go to a university, said that anxiety about taking on debt had nearly kept her from accepting the offer from the school. “it’s great to think that future students who follow me can do so without the fear that I went through.” She said while attending the news conference. Asked whether the university’s campaign to finance student scholarships through private donations rather than government funding meant that Oxford was giving up efforts to secure more public support, the university’s chancellor, Chris Patten, a former Conservative minister to Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher and John Major, joked that he was “ no longer allowed to have any political views.”

    It can be inferred from the passage that the family background of Mr. Moritz ( ).

    A.showed how scholarship changed his family members’ life.
    B.gave him the motive to study hard to be successful.
    C.illustrated that his family emphasized on education very much.
    D.proved that immigration family can also make great achievements.

    答案:A
    解析:
    本题考查的是推理判断。
    【关键词】inferred from the passage; the family background of Mr. Moritz
    【主题句】第二段 Mr. Moritz explained. “My father was plucked as a teenager from Nazi Germany and was able to attend a very good school in London on a Scholarship.”(莫里茨先生解释说。“我父亲十几岁时被纳粹德国选中,在伦敦凭借奖学金上了一所非常好的学校。”) My father’s cousin, Fritz Ursell, was also rescued from terrible circumstances. When he came to Britain, he also benefited from scholarships, and grew up to become a member of the Royal Society,” said Mr. Moritz. “父亲的表亲,Fritz Ursell也从可怕的情况下被救出。当他来到英国的时候,他也受益于奖学金,并且长大后成为英国皇家学会的一员,”莫里茨先生说。)
    【解析】本题问“从文章可以推断出莫里兹先生的家庭背景( )?”。选项A意为“显示了奖学金如何改变了他的家庭成员的生活”;选项B意为“提供他努力学习追求成功的动机”;选项C意为“说明他的家人非常重视教育”;选项D意为“证明移民家庭也可以取得巨大成就”。根据文章第2段的内容(主题句)可知奖学金改变了他的家人命运。根据文章内容,选项B、C、D相对于选项A并不能很直观地得出结论。

    The Family
    The structure of a family takes different forms around the world and even in the same society.
    The family's form changes as it adapts to changing social and economic influences.Until recently, the most common form in North America was the nuclear family,consisting of a married couple with their minor children.The nuclear family is an independent unit.It must be prepared to fend for itself. Individual family members strongly depend on one another. There is little help from outside the family in emergencies.Elderly relatives of a nuclear family are cared for only if it is possible for the family to do so.In North America,the elderly often do not live with the family;they live in retirement communities and nursing homes.
    There are many parallels between the nuclear family in industrial societies,such as North
    America,and of families in societies such as that of the Inuits,who live in harsh environments.
    The nuclear family structure is well adapted to a life of mobility. In harsh conditions,mobility allows the family to hunt for food.For North Americans,the hunt for jobs and improved social status also requires mobility.
    The nuclear family was not always the North American standard.In a more agrarian time,the small nuclear family was usually part of a larger extended family.This might have included grandparents,mother and father,brothers and sisters,uncles,aunts,and cousins.In North America today,there is a dramatic rise in the number of single-parent households.Twice as many households in the United States are headed by divorced, separated,or never-married individuals as are comprised of nuclear families. The structure of the family,not just in North America,but throughout the world,continues to change as it adapts to changing conditions.

    According to the passage,which is the definition of a nuclear family?
    A:.A nuclear family is a married couple with their minor children.
    B: A nuclear family is a single father with minor children.
    C: A nuclear family concludes parents,grandparents,and children.
    D: A nuclear family concludes parents,children,and aunts and uncles.

    答案:A
    解析:
    主旨题。题干意为“下面哪个选项可以作为这篇短文另一个合适的标题?”。短文开篇就提到了家庭结构,短文最后一句意为“不仅在北美洲,在全世界范围,家庭结构都会随着情况的不断变化而改变。”由此可见这篇短文的主题与家庭结构相关,由此可以进一步确认答案为A“家庭的结构是什么”。


    细节题。题干意为“根据文章,哪个是核心家庭的定义?”。第一段的第三句话对于核心家庭进行了定义Until recently , the most common form in North American was the nu-clear family , consisting of a married couple with their minor children.该句意为“直到最近,北美洲最普遍的家庭形式为核心家庭,由一对夫妇和他们未成年的孩子构成”。由此可知A“核心家庭是由一对夫妇和他们未成年的孩子构成的家庭”是答案。


    主旨题。题干意为“这篇文章最有可能出自哪里?”。该短文主题涉及家庭,因此最有可能出自人类学课本,所以A是正确的答案。


    题干意为“第一段主要以何种方式陈述的?”根据第一段的陈述方式,并没有列出数据或者讲故事,而是通过描述共性而阐述出核心家庭的概念。因此C“指出相似性”是正确的答案。


    题干意为“mobility是什么意思?”mobility是mobile“可移动的,机动的”的名词形式。首先在短文中找到mobility存在的语境:第二段中“The nuclear family structure is well adapted to a life of mobility…the hunt for jobs and improved social status also re-quires mobility. ”mobility所在的上下文意为“核心家庭结构良好地适应于……的生活。在恶劣的条件下,……能让一个家庭吃饱饭,时北美洲人来说,找工作和提高社会地位同样需要……”四个选项中,A意为“钱”,B意为“随时准备迁居”,C意为“组织,机构”,D意为“技能,技巧”,显然B“随时准备迁居”填入mobility所在的语境中合适,因此答案为B。

Figures show that it is the rich who most often do away with themselves.
    Dr. Robert Coles,an internationally famous doctor,is the world's top expert on the influence of money on children.He has written a well-received book on the subject,The Privileged Ones,and his research shows that too much money in the family can cause as many problems as too little."Ohviously there are certain advantages to being rich,"says the 53-year-old doctor,"such as better health,education and future work expectations.But most important is the quality of family life.

    从文章的叙述我们知道财富可以是恩赐也可以是负担,从第一段最后两句我们知道有钱人并非都幸福。因此选项D是正确的。选项A错误是因为有钱的孩子确实会常常旅游,但文章并没有说是否喜欢旅行。选项B错误:文章第二段最后一句说了钱买不了爱。选项C错误:第一段最后一句只是说有钱人最常自杀,却没说有钱的孩子会自杀。
    文章第二段最后一句提到财富会给人带来很多益处,但是最重要的家庭生活的质量却往往不是他们能享受的。因此选项C是正确的。选项A、选项B和选项D都不正确。
    选项B、C、D在文章中都提到过,只有选项A不正确。文章没有提过有钱人家和穷人家一样缺少爱。
    silver spoon是一个固定说法,并不真是指银子做的勺子,而是指财富,如 be born with silver spoon指的是“生在富有人家”。因此只有选项C是正确的。
    文章最后一句讲到“富有的家长们也意识到要让他们家庭里的爱同金钱一样多”,而且第二段最后也提到家庭生活的质量是最重要的,因此选项D是正确的。其他三个选项的叙述都是错误的。

    The Dangers of Secondhand Smoke

    Most people know that cigarette smoking is harmful to their health.Scientific research shows that it
    causes many kinds of diseases.In fact,many people who smoke get lung cancer. However,Edward Gilson
    has lung cancer,and he has never smoked cigarettes.He lives with his wife Evelyn,who has smoked about
    a pack of cigarettes a day throughout their marriage.________(46)
    No one knows for sure why Mr. Gilson has lung cancer. Nevertheless,doctors believe that secondhand
    smoke may cause lung cancer in people who do not smoke because nonsmokers often breathe in the smoke
    from other people's cigarettes.________(47)The US Environmental Protection Agency reports that about
    53,000 people die in the United States each year as a result of exposure to secondhand smoke.
    The smoke that comes from a lit cigarette contains many different poisonous chemicals.In the past,
    scientists did not think that these chemicals could harm a nonsmoker's health._________(48)They
    discovered that even nonsmokers had unhealthy amounts of these toxic chemicals in their bodies.As a matter
    of fact,almost all of us breathe tobacco smoke at times,whether we realize it or not. For example,we can
    not avoid secondhand smoke in restaurants,hotels and other public places.Even though many public places
    have nonsmoking areas,smoke flows in from the areas where smoking is permitted.
    It is even harder for children to avoid secondhand smoke._________(49)Research shows that chil-
    dren who are exposed to secondhand smoke are sick more often than children who live in homes where no one
    smokes and that the children of smokers are more than twice as likely to develop lung cancer when they are
    adults as are children of nonsmokers.The risk is even higher for children who live in homes where both
    parents smoke.
    People are becoming very aware of the dangers of secondhand smoke._________(50)

    __________(50)
    A:Recently,though,scientists changed their opinion after they studied a large group of nonsmokers.
    B:The Gilsons have been married for 35 years.
    C:This smoke is called secondhand smoke.
    D:However,secondhand smoke is dangerous to all people,old or young.
    E:As a result,they have passed laws which prohibit people from smoking in many public places.
    F: In the United States,nine million children under the age of five live in homes with at least one smoker.

    答案:E
    解析:
    前一句主要讲的是,Gilson先生与妻子Evelyn生活在一起,而Evelyn自他们结婚以来 一直是每天差不多抽一包烟。接下来显然应选表示他们结婚年限的句子。再者,只有B项提 到了Gilsons。
    前一句提到,不吸烟者时常吸人吸烟者吸烟时呼出的烟,后面应跟这种烟的定义,故选C。
    前一句讲的是过去科学家们对二手烟的看法,接下来的句子应表示他们改变了看法, 因为后面的句子表明他们所持的观点已与过去截然不同。
    前一句提到儿童与二手烟,接下来的句子自然仍然与儿童有关。
    前一句讲的是人们逐渐意识到二手烟的危害,因此接下来的句子应表示人们采取措 施,禁止在公共场所吸烟。第6部分:完形填空

    问答题
    Read the passage carefully and answer questions 1 to 5. Answer each of the questions in a maximum of 10 words. Remember to write the answers on the answer sheet.  Questions 1 to 5 are based on the following passage.BOOK REVIEW                                          Mark Wertman’s                                           True Confessions of a Red Mr. Mom  Most Americans agree that the workplace and the home are very different from the way they were thirty years ago. The world of work is no longer a man’s world. Between 1970 and 1995, the percentage of women who worked outside the home went from 50 percent to 76 percent. In the year 2000, of the more than 55 million married couples in the United States, 10.5 million women were making more money than their husbands, and 2 million men were stay-at-home dads.  Author, husband, and father Mark Wertman writes about being a stay-at-home dad in his book True Confessions of a Real Mr. Mom. His story will help other people who are learning how to live with the changing gender roles in our society.  Mark and his wife, Georgine, were a two-income couple, but things changed when their first baby was born. Georgine wanted to continue her work as a lawyer, but someone had to stay at home to take care of the baby. Georgine had the higher paying job, so she became the provider. They had more children. Mark stayed at home to raise the children. In his book he tells many stories about his role in the family.  At first, it was difficult to change roles. The Wertman kids often went to Mark first to talk about their problems. Georgine was jealous of the time the children spent with their father. Mark had some hard times, too. People often asked him, When are you going to get a real job? Even in the 21st century, society respects the role of provider more than the role of child raiser. Mark found out all about this.  Mark and Georgine learned that it is very important to talk about their problems. In the beginning, Mark thought Georgine had the easy job, and Georgine thought that Mark had it easy. Later they talked it over and discovered that both jobs were difficult and rewarding. Georgine and Mark agree that talking things over and making decisions together helps their relationship.  The Wertmans are happy with the results of their decision. Their children are ready for a world where men and women can choose their roles. Wertman’s book is enjoyable and educational, especially for couples who want to switch roles. As Mark Wertman says, We are society. We make the changes one by one. People have to decide on what’s best for them and their families.  Questions:  1.Why is the workplace no longer a man’s world?  2.What is Mark Wertman’s book about?  3.Why is Georgine the provider in the family?  4.How do the Wertmans work out their problems?  5.What does Mark Wertman think about family roles?

    1.Many more women now work outside the home. 由第一段三四句可得出答案。
    2.His life as a stay-at-home dad. 由第二段第一句可得出答案。
