【题目】阅读理解

“How far is the next village?” the American asks a man standing by the edge of the road. In some countries, because the man realizes that the traveler is tired and eager to reach his destination (目的地), he will politely say “Just down the road.” He thinks this is more encouraging, gentler, and therefore the wanted answer. So the American drives through the night, getting more and more angry, feeling “being tricked”. He thinks the man on purpose lied to him, for obviously he must have known the distance quite well.

Had conditions been reversed (颠倒过来), the American would have felt he was “cheating” the driver if he had said the next town was not too far, and if he would be sorry to the weary driver, he would say “You have a good way to go yet, it is at least fifteen miles.” The driver might be disappointed, but he would know what to expect.

Whether to be accurate or polite leads to many misunderstandings between people of different cultures. If you know the situation in advance, it is sometimes easier to recognize the problem.

【1】The man at the roadside tells the American it is not far from the next village because he ________.

A. wants to encourage him to go further

B. doesn't know the exact distance at all

C. wants to help the man to decide whether to stop and have a rest

D. tries to play a trick on him

2We can learn from this passage that Americans ________.

A. are polite to anybody

B. like to be honest and accurate

C. often lie to others

D. have no sympathy to others

3If you ask an American how far it is from the next village, he will ________.

A. give you an accurate answer if he knows the distance

B. say that he doesn't know but he will encourage you to go on

C. decide whether you are tired or not, and then tell you

D. tell you politely it is close though he knows it isn't

4The short passage advises us to ________.

Dear Mom, Clear My Calendar

September is around the corner, and some of us are already complaining about summers end. But parents have a special reason to do so. The end of summer means the start of school. And these days, planning a young childs schedule is a big challenge. The challenge is no longer finding activities to fill a childs day; it is saying no to the hundreds of options available. Our mailbox is filled with brochures urging us to sign our kids up for classes from cooking to martial arts(武术).

Educators are themselves discouraged by the number of special classes that many children attend. In the name of enrichment, three-year-olds not only go to preschool in the morning but study French or gymnastics after lunch. One teacher tells of a four-year-old asking for help in the toilet before hurrying off to tennis. Another teacher says that children sometimes hold on to her at pickup time. What happened to unstructured time?

A generous explanation is that we enjoy giving children opportunities we never had. The truth however is that many parents have doubts about how much time they spend away from their families. And one way to reduce this guilt is to believe that time spent in these classes is somehow more beneficial to children than the time we know we should be giving them ourselves.

David Elkind, an expert on children, suggests that the 1960s gave birth to the belief that earlier is better. Parents hope that early music lessons, for example will build a childs confidence. The truth, however, is that any time children are asked to do too much, too soon, they are at greater risk for feelings of failure.

A childs time does not have to be planned to be meaningful. Remember the lazy days of summer? Some children sleep late and play with the kids across the street until its time to come home for dinner. However, with the majority of mothers working, fewer children enjoy that idle (空闲的) time now.

Come September, children across the country will finish a full day of kindergarten, only to attend an after-school program until 6 P.M., when a working mom or dad comes to take them home. Thats too much for a five-year old. Finances, of course, do limit some parents. But lets be honest with ourselves our own busy schedules, whatever they involve, are no excuse for burdening a young childs.

【1】 The author holds that its a challenge to plan a schedule for a child mainly because _____.

A. a childs schedule is too complex

B. activities suitable for kids are limited

C. parents are stuck in numerous choices

D. children always say no to parents advice

【2】 What the two teachers say in Paragraph 2 implies that _____.

A. children love to stay at school

B. they are popular with children

C. children dislike after-school classes

D. after-school classes are of poor quality

【3】 According to the author, what is the real reason for parents to send their children to after-school classes?

A. Parents want to make up for their own regrets.

B. After-school classes develop childrens potential.

C. Parents have doubt about their own ability to guide children.

D. After-school classes give parents an excuse for being absent.

【4】 Which of the following will the author probably agree with?

A. For childrens benefits, the earlier the better.

B. Childrens spare time should be carefully designed.

C. Idle time for children is becoming a thing of the past.

D. Parents should be forgiven if they have a good reason.
