题目内容
2.I was interested to read a newspaper article about a new concept in old people's homes in France.The idea is simple,but revolutionary--combining a residential home for the elderly with a nursery school in the same building.The children and the residents eat lunch together and share activities.In the afternoons,the residents enjoy reading or telling stories to the children,and if a child is feeling sad or tired,there is always a kind lap to sit on and a cuddle(拥抱).There are trips out and birthday parties too.The advantages are enormous for everyone concerned.The children are happy because they get a lot more individual attention,and respond well because someone has time for them.They see illness and death and learn to accept them.The residents are happy because they feel useful and needed.They are more active and more interested in life when the children are around and they take more interest in their appearance too.
Nowadays there is less and less contact between the old and the young.There are many reasons for this,including the breakdown of the extended family,working parents with no time to care for aging relations,families that have moved away,and smaller flats with no room for grandparents.But the result is the same--increasing numbers of children without grandparents and old people who have no contact with children.And more old people who are lonely and feel useless,along with more and more families with young children who desperately need more support.It's a major problem in many societies.
That's why intergenerational programmes,designed to bring the old and the young together,are growing in popularity all over the world.There are examples of successful attempts all over the world.Using young people to teach IT skills to older people is one obvious example.Using old people as volunteer assistants in schools is another,perhaps reading with children who need extra attention.

解答 36-40.CBDAB
36 C 推理判断题.通过第一段可以看出"combining a residential home for the elderly with a nursery school in the same building"的目的是让孩子一起吃饭分享活动从中可推断出nursery school与children有关,C选项符合题意.
37 B 细节理解题.根据第二段第一句得知"参与活动的每个有关人员都得到了巨大的利益"B选项正好符合此意.其他选项之意在文中没有信息支持.故选B.
38 D 推理判断题.根据本段第一句Nowadays there is less and less contact between the old and the young.再加上下文细节的支持又有最后一句的归纳不难发现本段主要讲述的问题是老人和年轻人被分开了,D与题意相符.做题时注意题干当中的"mainly"之词.故选D
39 A 推理判断题.根据第四段第一句画线部分后面的定语designed to bring the old and the young together,再结合第一段不难看出"intergenerational programmes"是"将养老院和幼儿园结合起来,A选项是最佳选择B、C、D三个选项虽然在文中都提到但都属于A项里面的具 体做法.故选A
40 B 主旨大意题.本篇的第一段里提到"new concept"最后一段提到"intergenerational programmes"都点明了同样的意思在孩子们的生活 与老年人的生活之间架起了桥梁将他们连在一起.B选项正合此意.A、C、D 三个选项意思过于片面.故选B
点评 考察学生的细节理解和推理判断能力,做细节理解题时一定要找到文章中的原句,和题干进行比较,再做出正确的选择.在做推理判断题不要以个人的主观想象代替文章的事实,要根据文章事实进行合乎逻辑的推理判断.
