题目内容

【题目】I have two kids, a boy and a girl. I don’t worry about my girl; I’m sure she’ll be well trained in mixed martial arts. I worry about my son. I’m pretty sure he’s going to be feminine (女性化的). Sorry to say that, but let’s face it. No dad wants his son to go feminine.

At the rate we’re moving in a couple of years you won’t be able to tell the difference between boys and girls. Sound extreme? Think about this. In every movie where advanced time-traveling beings come to our planet, there’s one constant: You can’t tell the male aliens from the female aliens!

But that’s the future. Kids today are soft and fat. People ask why. Is it junk food? No. Junk food has been around for fifty years. Is it video games? No. Video games have been around for thirty years. None of the kids playing them back in the day were terribly obese. We’re all scratching our heads trying to figure out what we’ve introduced to society to ruin our kids. But it’s not anything we’ve added that has ruined our kids. It’s stuff we’ve gotten rid of.

Take the gym rope for example. Remember that thing that stretched from the floor to the ceiling in your gym class that you could never climb? Most of the kids couldn’t make it to the top. But that wasn’t the point; the point was you had to try while some middle-aged guy who couldn’t make it up a flight of stairs shouted at you. We should have put our son on that rope, and given him a head start. But we didn’t want to shame the boy, so we took it down.

Taking down the rope would be a good idea if there were no ropes in life. But they’re everywhere. You just can’t see them. They’re in every goal unrealized and expectation not met. The point everyone missed about the rope is you weren’t supposed to make it to the top. It was there to create a fire that burned in the oversize belly of every kid.

【2】What causes kids today to be soft and fat?

D．They are thought too highly of.

【4】What does the rope probably symbolize?

【答案】

【1】B

【2】D

【3】B

【4】C

【解析】

试题分析:本文主要讲了现在的男孩越来越女性化，而他们变得女性化的原因是父母亲过多的保护孩子，而没有让男孩子自己去承受一些他们应该承受的东西。

【1】B 细节理解题。根据第一段中I’m pretty sure he’s going to be feminine (女性化的). Sorry to say that, but let’s face it. No dad wants his son to go feminine.

可知，作者想告诉我们现在男孩越来越女性化，举外星人的例子是进一步说明，故选B。

【2】D 细节理解题。根据第三段最后一句But it’s not anything we’ve added that has ruined our kids. It’s stuff we’ve gotten rid of.可知，是因为我们抛弃了一些社会准则使得孩子变得女性化了。故选D。

【3】B 细节理解题。根据最后一段中They’re in every goal unrealized and expectation not met. The point everyone missed about the rope is you weren’t supposed to make it to the top. It was there to create a fire that burned in the oversize belly of every kid.可知，作者认为孩子们被过多地保护。故选B。

【4】C 推理判断题。根据文中最后两段可知，这里的rope指的是竞争，父母为了不伤害孩子，他们把标准降低了，故选C。

When someone has deeply hurt you, it can be very difficult to let go of your anger. But forgiveness is possible — and it can be surprisingly 【1】 (benefit) to your physical and mental health. So far, research 【2】 (show) that people who forgive can have more energy, better appetite and better sleep. “People who forgive show 【3】 (little) anger and more hopefulness,” says Dr. Frederic Luskin, who wrote the book Forgive for Good. “So it can help reduce the tiredness out of the immune system and allow people 【4】 (feel) more energetic.”

So when someone has hurt you, cool down first. Take a couple of breaths and think of something __【5】 gives you pleasure: a beautiful scene in nature, or someone you love.

【题目】An earthquake is a shaking of the ground【1】(cause) by the sudden breaking and shifting of large sections of Earth's rocky outer shell.

Earthquakes can cause great damage and loss of【4】(live). Large earthquakes beneath the ocean can create a series 【5】huge and destructive waves called tsunamis 【6】flood coasts for many miles. Earthquakes almost never kill people 【7】(direct). Instead, many deaths and injuries in earthquakes result from 【8】(fall) objects and the collapse（倒塌）of buildings, bridges, and other structures. Fire caused from broken gas or power lines is another major danger during 【9】quake. Spills（溢出）of 【10】(harm) chemicals are also a concern during an earthquake.
