5．Children's lives have changed greatly over the last 50 years．But do they have a happier childhood than you or I did？
It's difficult to look back on one's own childhood without some element of nostalgia（怀旧的）．I have four brothers and sisters，and my memories are all about being with them，playing board games on the living room floor，or spending days in the street with the other neighborhood children，racing up and down on our bikes，or exploring the nearby woods．My parents hardly appear in these memories，except as providers either of meals or of severe blame after some particularly risky adventure．
These days，in the UK at least，the nature of childhood has changed greatly．Firstly，families are smaller，and there are far more only children．It is common for both parents to work outside the home and there is the feeling that there just isn't time to bring up a large family，or that no one could possibly afford to have more than one child．As a result，today's boys and girls spend much of their time alone．Another major change is that youngsters today tend to spend a huge amount of their free time at home，inside．More than anything this is due to the fact that parents worry far more than they used to about real or imagined dangers，so they wouldn't dream of letting their children play outside by themselves．
Finally，the kind of toys children have and the way they play is totally different．Computer and video games have replaced the board games and more interesting activities of my childhood．The irony（令人啼笑皆非的事情）is that so many ways of playing games are called"interactive．"The fact that you can play electronic games on your own further increases the sense of loneliness felt by many young people today．
Do these changes mean that children today have a less relaxing childhood than I had？I personally believe that they do，but perhaps every generation feels exactly the same．

28．What is the purpose of the direct question given in the first paragraph？B
A．To compare the childhood lives of two generations．
B．To get people's attention and lead in the topic．
C．To gather people's opinions on childhood．
D．To show who the passage is written for．
29．Which is a reason for the changes？A
A．Parents worried too much about their children．
B．Children play more interactive games．
C．It's too dangerous to play outside．
D．Families are bigger today．
30．What does the writer focus on in the fourth paragraph？C
A．Young people today shouldn't play electronic games．
B．Computer and video games have replaced the board games．
C．Some games that young people play today aren't really good．
D．Board games are much more interesting than computer games．
31．The writer's attitude towards the childhood changing isD．
A．approving B．optimistic C．unconcerned D．objective．

12．Raised in a motherless home，my father was extremely tightfisted towards us children．His attitude didn't soften as I grew into adulthood and went to college．I had to ride the bus whenever I came home．Though the bus stopped about two miles from home，Dad never met me，even in severe weather．If I grumbled，he'd say in his loudest father-voice，"That's what your legs are for!"
The walk didn't bother me as much as the fear of walking alone along the highway and country roads．I also felt less than valued that my father didn't seem concerned about my safety．But that feeling was canceled one spring evening．
It had been a particularly difficult week at college after long hours in labs．I longed for home．When the bus reached the stop，I stepped off and dragged my suitcase to begin the long journey home．
A row of hedge（树篱）edged the driveway that climbed the hill to our house．Once I had turned off the highway to start the last lap of my journey，I always had a sense of relief to see the hedge because it meant that I was almost home．On that particular evening，the hedge had just come into view when I saw something gray moving along the top of the hedge，moving toward the house．Upon closer observation，I realized it was the top of my father's head．Then I knew，each time I'd come home，he had stood behind the hedge，watching，until he knew I had arrived safely．I swallowed hard against the tears．He did care，after all．
On later visits，that spot of gray became my watchtower．I could hardly wait until I was close enough to watch for its secret movement above the greenery．Upon reaching home，I would find my father sitting innocently in his chair．"So!My son，it's you!"he'd say，his face lengthening into pretended surprise．
I replied，"Yes，Dad，it's me．I'm home．"
