A:prevent
B:define
C:decide
D:delay答案：A解析：本题考查的是对上下文的理解和副词辫析。本句意为“在英国超过一半将午餐带到学校吃的儿童中午吃得不恰当”。此处需要有“恰当地，正确地”意思的副词。A 选项意为appropriately“适当地；相称地”。B选项properly意为“适当地，正确地”。C选项 probably意为“大概，或许；可能”。D选项possibly意为“可能；也许；大概”。所以应该在A和 B之间选择，A选项倾向“得体”。所以B选项是正确答案。
本题考查对上下文的理解。选择B选项provide提供。该句强调学校饭食和孩子的关系，根据上下文应该选“提供”。所以B选项是正确答案。

第2题：
Children for whom school has no point
Many children do not go to school either because their parents want them at home as carers for siblings,or simply because their parents cannot be bothered to send them．Thousands more are not registered at any school at all,because of their families'unstable lives.
Underlying this dreadful situation there are two central truths．First of all,the problem of children not going to school often has more to do with their parents than with the children themselves．Secondly,once children go to school,we need to make sure that the experience is a positive one so that they want to keep on going.
In Britain,the Ministry of Education has introduced a complex package of sticks and carrots to persuade Schools to bring truants'and excluded children back into the classroom．It is paying grants so that a thousand schools can set up special units to help these children．Schools receive the grant if they bring a target number of children back to school;if they do not meet the target,the grant is withdrawn.
Parents are the subject of this campaign,too:the Home Office has introduced fines for parents who fail to send their children to school,and has given the police power to pick up truants on the streets.
Truant=a child who does not go to school when he or she should.
The Ministry of Education will take away a school's grant if__.A.they do not reach their objectives
B.they do not contact parents
C.children escape from school
D.they meet their targets答案：A解析：第三段。英国教育部设置了一种奖励制度，如果学校能将一定数目的应该念书的孩子劝回学校，该校就可获得一定的奖励。 -

Part of the problem is__.A.that people feel very emotional
B.that parents worry their children at school
C.that these children think education is a waste of time
D.that there are not enough police to pick up truants on the streets答案：C解析：第二段。最后一句中的positive experience意为“有用的知识”。全句大意是“对孩子来说，如果在学校学到的知识对他们有用，他们将愿意在学校学下去”，而不是去浪费时间。 -

第一篇
About eight million school-age children are home alone after school.These are the hours when the number of violent crimes peaks and when youths are most likely to experiment with alcohol,tobacco,and drugs.Many older children take care of themselves after school for an hour or two until a parent comes home,and research suggests that some of these children are more at risk of poor grades and risky behaviors.
Studies have been done to find out what helps to reduce these kinds of risky behaviors among youths.One study of Chicago neighborhoods showed that after-school programs resulted in less violence even in poor neighborhoods.
After-school programs can help to reduce crime and violence because they offer activities to children and youths during their out-of-school time.In addition to helping youths make use of after-school hours,after-school programs provide teens with opportunities to develop caring relationships with adults.Studies have found that high-quality relationships with parents and other adults,as well as good use of time,are very important for healthy development in youth.
After-school programs can also be used for teens who hang out at friends' houses and play basketball when a parent or other responsible adult is at home.The programs can also be helpful for formal after-school activities,including"drop-in"programs that are provided by organizations.
Despite the benefits of after-school programs,there are many reasons why some parents do not use them. Programs may be too expensive,of poor quality,or hard to join.Some older cililciren and young teens may refuse to attend programs that seem like they are just child care.F'arents may ieei uncertain about how much freedom is proper for children and youths who are beyond the traditional child care years.However,research supports the effectiveness of these programs in protecting middle school and high school youths from risk and harm.Why do many parents refuse to use after-school programs?
A:The programs are just like child care programs.
B:The programs offer no freedom to their children.
C:The programs bring little benefit to parents and children.
D:The programs can be expensive or poor in quality.答案：D解析：依据是第二段：Studies have been done to find out what helps to reduce these kinds of risky behaviors among youths.One study of Chicago neighborhoods showed that after-school programs resulted in less violence even in poor neighborhoods.A选项中的“avoid(避免）”用在这里不准确，根据第二段内容，课后活动只能减少并没有说彻底避免危险行为及暴力行为的产生，因此不选A。根据第三段第一句话，很多活动会安排学生们在课后参加，所以他们并不是on their own（独自一人的），因此不选B。根据第三段第二句：...develop caring relationships with adults，可知并不是和同学之间，而是和成年人之间形成良好关系，因此不选C。
依据是最后一段的前两句话：...there are many reasons why some parents do not use them.Programs may be too expensive , of poor quality , or hard to join.根据最后一段第三句话：Some older children and young teens may refuse to attend programs that seem like they are just child care.可以判断出只是某些学生认为这样的活动类似于child care programs，因此不喜欢，但并不是家长们拒绝课后活动项目的原因。因此不选A。根据最后一段第四句话可知，这些活动并不是不给孩子们任何自由，故不选B项。C选项和前面第二段所讲的after-school pro-grams resulted in less violence even in poor neighborhoods矛盾，本身就不正确，更不是家长们拒绝课后活动的原因。
根据第四段第一句话可以得知，除了适合那种放学之后父母都不在家的孩子外，课后活动项目也同样适用于课后在朋友家闲混或打篮球，而家里会有一位父母或是其他成年人在场的情况，因此可以推断C是正确答案。文章中只说学生会在朋友家hang out，并没有说stay for a long time，因此不选A。根据第三段最后一句话：...high-quality relationships with parents and other adults...are very important for healthy development in youth.可以推断和父母亲以及成年人之间的良好关系对于年轻人的健康发展很重要，如果他们之间的关系不好，那么可能会对年轻人的健康发展不利，因此不选B。根据最后一段第三句话可以得知，只是某些学生不喜欢这样的课后活动，并非D选项中所说得那么绝对，因此不选D。
根据最后一段倒数第二句话可知，父母亲不确定到底可以给年龄较大已经过了托管年龄的孩子多大自由，可以判断父母亲并没打算让孩子们随心所欲，给他们彻底的自由，因此B选项的内容是不正确的。A选项的依据是第一段最后一句：...research suggests that some of these children are more at risk of poor grades and risky behaviors.C选项的依据是第三段第二句：In addition to helping youths make use of after-school hours ,...D选项的依据是第三段第一句：After-school programs can help to reduce crime and violence...
贯穿全文都在讲述after-school programs的必要性、作用、适合群体以及来自家长和学生的反应，因此最佳标题应该是After-school Programs。 -

第7题：
问答题Practice 2 Private school does not mean better. But it does mean expensive. Public schools in the US are paid for by money from everyone; private schools are not. Parents who send their children to private schools must pay to do so. Parents may have enough money to pay for private schools. But these schools do not have to accept their children. Most private schools accept only children who are already doing well in school and are able to work quietly, Some take only boys or only girls. Classes are often quieter and less crowded than classes in public schools. This gives children a chance to learn more of what their teachers are trying to teach them. Public schools do not teach religion. So some parents choose private religious schools for their children. These schools each belong to a church. 6 They give lessons about that religion. They give lessons in all the usual school subjects as well. Children at many private schools wear special school uniforms, all exactly the same. At public schools, students wear what they want. They often dress in bright colors and tennis shoes. They sometimes invent new and wonderful fashions.正确答案： 【参考译文】
私立学校并不一定比公立学校好,但上私立学校肯定比上公立学校贵。公立学校的办学经费用的是每一个公民纳税的钱,而私立学校却不是这样。家长如果想把自己的孩子送到私立学校去念书,他们就得自己付钱。
即使家长有钱付学费,私立学校也不一定非得把孩子收下来。大部分的私立学校一般都只收学习成绩较好而又遵守纪律的学生。有的私立学校只收男生,而有的私立学校又只收女生。与公立学校相比,私立学校每个班的人数要少些,学生也能遵守课堂纪律。这样,学生在学校里就能学到更多的知识。
公立学校不设宗教课程。所以,有些家长就把自己的孩子送到私立的教会学校去上学。这类教会学校一般都属于某个教派,在学校里,他们就给学生上自己教派的宗教课程。当然,其他学校教的所有的课程,教会学校也都得教。
许多私立学校的学生都得穿式样统一的校服。在公立学校,学生爱穿什么就可穿什么。他们往往穿着艳丽的衣服和网球鞋;有时,学生们也会搞些新花样,很快就成为流行的时装。解析： 暂无解析 -

A:The grades of those children who are home alone after school are more likely to suffer.
B:Parents want to give their children as much as possible freedom.
C:The after-school programs help the students to make use of the time after school.
D:The after-school programs are effective in protecting middle school and high school youths from risk and harm.答案：B解析：依据是第二段：Studies have been done to find out what helps to reduce these kinds of risky behaviors among youths.One study of Chicago neighborhoods showed that after-school programs resulted in less violence even in poor neighborhoods.A选项中的“avoid(避免）”用在这里不准确，根据第二段内容，课后活动只能减少并没有说彻底避免危险行为及暴力行为的产生，因此不选A。根据第三段第一句话，很多活动会安排学生们在课后参加，所以他们并不是on their own（独自一人的），因此不选B。根据第三段第二句：...develop caring relationships with adults，可知并不是和同学之间，而是和成年人之间形成良好关系，因此不选C。

根据第四段第一句话可以得知，除了适合那种放学之后父母都不在家的孩子外，课后活动项目也同样适用于课后在朋友家闲混或打篮球，而家里会有一位父母或是其他成年人在场的情况，因此可以推断C是正确答案。文章中只说学生会在朋友家hang out，并没有说stay for a long time，因此不选A。根据第三段最后一句话：...high-quality relationships with parents and other adults...are very important for healthy development in youth.可以推断和父母亲以及成年人之间的良好关系对于年轻人的健康发展很重要，如果他们之间的关系不好，那么可能会对年轻人的健康发展不利，因此不选B。根据最后一段第三句话可以得知，只是某些学生不喜欢这样的课后活动，并非D选项中所说得那么绝对，因此不选D。
根据最后一段倒数第二句话可知，父母亲不确定到底可以给年龄较大已经过了托管年龄的孩子多大自由，可以判断父母亲并没打算让孩子们随心所欲，给他们彻底的自由，因此B选项的内容是不正确的。A选项的依据是第一段最后一句：...research suggests that some of these children are more at risk of poor grades and risky behaviors.C选项的依据是第三段第二句：In addition to helping youths make use of after-school hours ,...D选项的依据是第三段第一句：After-school programs can help to reduce crime and violence...
贯穿全文都在讲述after-school programs的必要性、作用、适合群体以及来自家长和学生的反应，因此最佳标题应该是After-school Programs。 -

About eight million school-age children are home alone after school.These are the hours when the number of violent crimes peaks and when youths are most likely to experiment with alco- hol,tobacco,and drugs. Many older children take care of themselves after school for an hour or two until a parent comes home,and research suggests that some of these children are more at risk of poor grades and risky behaviors.
Studies have been done to find out what helps to reduce these kinds of risky behaviors among youths .One study of Chicago neighborhoods showed that after-school programs resulted in less vio- lence even in poor neighborhoods.
After-school programs can help to reduce crime and violence because they offer activities to children and youths during their out-of-school time.In addition to helping youths make use of af-ter-school hours,after-school programs provide teens with opportunities to develop caring relation-ships with adults.Studies have found that high-quality relationships with parents and other adults, as well as good use of time,are very important for healthy development in youth.
After-school programs can also be used for teens who hang out at friends' houses and play basketball when a parent or other responsible adult is at home.The programs can also be helpful for formal after-school activities,including"drop-in"programs that are provided by organizations.
Despite the benefits of after-school programs,there are many reasons why some parents do not use them. Programs may be too expensive,of poor quality,or hard to join.Some older children and young teens may refuse to attend programs that seem like they are just child care.Parents may feel uncertain about how much freedom is proper for children and youths who are beyond the tradition-al child care years.However,research supports the effectiveness of these programs in protecting middle school and high school youths from risk and harm.Which of the following is a benefit of after-school programs?
A: They help to avoid crime and violence during that time.
B: They help youths do things on their own during after-school hours.
C: They help teens develop caring relationships with classmates.
D: They help to reduce risky behaviors among youths.答案：D解析：依据是第二段“Studies have been done to find out...resulted in less violence even in poor neighborhoods"。 A选项中的“avoid（避免）”用在这里不准确，根据第二段内容课后活动只能减少并没有说彻底避免危险行为及暴力行为的产生，因此不选A。根据第三段第一句话“很多活动会安排给学生们在课后参加”，所以他们并不是on their own （独自一人的），因此不选B。根据第三段第二句“...develop caring relationships with a-dults.”可知，并不是和同学之间，而是和成年人之间形成良好关系，因此不选C。
依据是最后一段的前两句话“...there are many reasons why some parents...or hard to join"，根据最后一段第三句“Some older children and young teens may refuse to attend programs that seem like they are just child care.”可以判断出，只是某些学生认为这样的活动类似于child care programs因此不喜欢，但并不是家长们拒绝课后活动项目的原因。因此不选A。根据最后一段第四句话可知，这些活动并不是不给孩子们任何自由，故不选B项。C选项和前面第二段所讲的“after-school programs resulted in less violence even in poor neighborhoods”矛盾，本身就不正确，更不是家长们拒绝课后活动的原因。

根据最后一段倒数第二句可知，父母亲不确定到底可以给年龄较长已经过了托管年龄的孩子多大自由，可以判断父母亲并没打算让孩子们随心所欲，给他们彻底的自由，因此B选项的内容是不正确的。A选项的依据是第一段最后一句“...research sug-gests that some of these children are more at risk of poor grades and risky behaviors" ,C选项的依据是第三段第二句“In addition to helping youths make use of after-school hours...", D选项的依据是第三段第一句“After-school programs can help to reduce crime and vio- lence...”。

第16题：
问答题练习1 Parents in China are always trying to help their children, even to make the most important decision for them, regardless of what the children really want, because parents believe it’s all for the benefit of their children. This has led to the result that the children’s growth and education tend to give way to their parents’ wishes. Once the parents decide to sign up an after school class for their children in order to increase their chance of being admitted to a good school, they will stick on their decision, even their children have no interest in it at all. In America, however, parents tend to respect their children, especially when making decisions. Perhaps it is commendable that Chinese parents lay much importance on education, but Chinese parents still need to keep the balance between the parents and children in the perspective of education as the American parents do.正确答案： 在中国,父母总是试图帮助他们的孩子,甚至为他们做重要的决定,而不管孩子想要什么,因为父母相信这样做是为了孩子好。结果,孩子的成长和教育往往屈从于父母的愿望。一旦父母决定为他们的孩子报名参加一个课外班,以增加他们被好学校录取的机会,他们会坚持自己的决定,即使他们的孩子根本不感兴趣。然而在美国,父母往往尊重孩子的意见,尤其是在做决定的时候。也许中国父母非常重视教育是值得称赞的。但是,他们应该向美国父母学习在涉及教育时如何平衡父母与孩子之间的关系。解析：
本题考查的翻译要点有：①regardless of，即不管某种情况；②for the benefit of sb意为“为了某人好”；③give way to表示“屈从于”；④lay much importance on意为“非常重视”；⑤keep the balance between…and…意为“保持……与……之间的平衡”；⑥in the perspective of表示“在……方面，涉及……”。
