分析 在美国穷人家的孩子的生活与富人家的孩子的生活的差距比以往更大了.根据一家调查中心,富人家的孩子参加舞会,足球赛,校外活动等等,父母会花时间给孩子读书,关心孩子的焦虑,和时间安排.而穷人家的孩子只是待在家里,和家里的其他人玩耍,他们在不适合孩子成长的环境了被养大.父母担心孩子会被射杀,被打,或者违反法律.这种抚养孩子的等级的差异正在变大,这也是社会不平等在加剧的一个征兆.
解答 61.than.考查比较级句式.根据 more different 可知本句用比较级句式,表示"在美国穷人家的孩子的生活与富人家的孩子的生活的差距比以往更大了.",所以用"than".
62.participating.考查with的复合结构.在with 的复合结构中,children 和participate之间是主动关系,所以用participating,表示"富人家的孩子参加舞会,足球赛,校外活动等等".
63.a.考查冠词.第一次提到这家调查中心,表示"一个",用a.
64.who.考查定语从句.根据先行词two parents可知关系词用who,表示"父母会花时间给孩子读书".
65.worrying.考查非谓语动词.和reading并列,用于句式"spend time doing",表示"关心孩子的焦虑,和时间安排"
66.to spend.考查非谓语动词. tend 后用动词不定式,tend to do表示"往往会".
67.likely.考查固定短语.be likely to do 表示"可能做某事".
68.that/which.考查定语从句.修饰先行词neighborhoods做定语从句的主语,用 that/which,表示"在不适合孩子成长的环境了被养大".
69.or.考查连词.getting shot,beaten up 和in trouble with the law 是并列关系,表示"他们担心孩子会被射杀,被打,或者违反法律".
70.differences.考查派生词.做句子的主语用名词differences,表示"抚养孩子的等级的差异正在变大"
点评 考查语法填空.
在选择定语从句的关系词时,不能仅仅看先行词,还应该注意它在从句了做的成分.例如
I live in a room where my sister used to live.(where在从句的状语)
I live in a room which my sister used to live in.(which在从句的宾语)
