【题目】Is there such a thing as being “over-protective”?

I can honestly say that my answer【1】that question has changed dramatically（戏剧性地）since I became a parent.

Before the birth of my daughter,I taught at a private school,often【2】(view) my students as over-protected, worrying【3】would happen to them when they went on to middle schools.

Some did fine,and some did not.Some needed constant pats on the back,words of encouragement and extra support,which I【4】(happy) gave.Others【5】(satisfy) with themselves,needing little or no interaction（互动）with their teacher.【6】for the most part,graduates would go on for higher schooling.

I'd always taken it for granted【7】their parents were over-protective,for they were the ones that still walked their【8】(five) graders into the classroom and met them at the school gate.

Admittedly,I laughed at those parents,thinking their children would never learn to be【9】(dependent) if they didn't let go just a little.Then I had my own daughter. The moment I looked at her little face,I knew I'd do everything in my power【10】(protect) her and make sure she always felt safe!

【答案】

【1】to

【2】viewing

【3】what

【4】happily

【5】were satisfied

【6】But

【7】that

【8】fifth

【9】independent

【10】to protect

【解析】这篇文章主要讲了作者作为一名老师，曾经嘲笑学生家长的过度关爱孩子，但当自己成了一位家长后，才明白其中的苦衷。

【1】考查固定用法。表示问题的答案，用“to”。

【2】考查非谓语动词。I与view之间是主动关系，所以用现在分词。所以填viewing。

【3】考查宾语从句。这里含有一个宾语从句，引导词在从句中作happen的宾语，所以用what。

【4】考查副词。修饰动词gave，用副词形式。所以填happily。

【5】考查固定用法。Be satisfied with是固定用法，意思是对……满意。Others是复数概念，并且是发生在过去的事情，用一般过去时，所以be动词用were。填were satisfied。

【6】考查连词。句意：但是多数情况下，毕业生将会进入高等学校继续学习。表示转折关系，所以填but。

【7】考查固定用法。take it for granted that 是固定用法，意思是理所当然的认为。所以填that。

【8】考查序数词。句意：因为他们仍然要送五年级的学生进教室，并且在门口接他们。表示“五年级”，用序数词fifth。

【9】考查形容词。句意：无可否认地，我嘲笑过那些家长，认为他们的孩子将永远学不会独立。作be动词之后的表语，所以用形容词形式。所以填independent。

【10】考查不定式。句意：为了保护她，我将竭尽所能。表示目的“为了……”所以填to protect。

练习册系列答案

But last week, Alex, an African parrot, died, obviously of natural causes, said Dr Irene Pepperberg, an expert at Brandeis University and Harvard who studied and worked with the parrot for most of its life and published reports of his progress in scientific journals. The parrot was 31.

Scientists have long debated whether any other species can develop the ability to learn human language. Alex’s language ability was, in some ways, more surprising than the efforts of those animals that have been taught, like Koko, the gorilla (猩猩) trained by Penny Patterson at the Gorilla Foundation in Woodside, or Washoe, another gorilla studied by R. Allen and Beatrice Gardner at the University of Nevada in the 1960s and 1970s.

When Dr Pepperberg, who was then a doctoral student in chemistry at Harvard, found Alex was good at remembering words in a pet store in 1977 and bought it, scientists had little expectation that birds could learn to communicate with humans. Most of the research had been done on pigeons, and was not promising.

But by using novel methods of teaching, Dr Pepperberg taught Alex to learn about 150 words, which he could put into categories. He could count small numbers and tell colors and shapes. “The work changed the way we think of bird brains,” said Diana Reiss, a psychologist at Hunter College who works with dolphins and elephants. “We used to look down upon those birds, but now we look at those brains — at least Alex’s — with some awe.”

【1】Alex is very famous because ________.

A. it died of a strange disease

B. it lived longer than any other parrot

C. it hosted many famous TV shows

D. it has a special talent in learning human language

【2】What was the direct reason why Dr Pepperberg bought Alex?

A. He found it was good at remembering words.

B. He liked its colors and shapes.

C. He wanted to do research on birds.

D. Diana Reiss asked him to do that.

【3】What does the underlined word “novel” mean in the last paragraph?

A. Special. B. New.

C. Great. D. Unique.

【4】According to the last paragraph, we can learn that ________.

A. people used to think dolphins were the cleverest

B. Alex’s ability of learning human language has changed some researchers’ ideas about birds

C. elephants are better at learning human language

D. birds’ great ability in learning human language has already been noticed before

【5】What would be the best title for this passage?

A. Who are cleverer, birds or gorillas?

B. A famous talking bird died

C. Have you ever talked with a bird?

D. The keeper of a famous bird

【题目】For years I have had no idea what I have been doing with my life. I was a 30-year-old lawyer(律师) in New York. But being a lawyer was never my dream or goal in life. I honestly wanted to be a writer. I have a great imagination and would write amazing stories in my head. But I always knew that being a writer was never possible for me because it was a better financial decision to stay a lawyer.

Recently, I couldn’t fall asleep at my usual time of 10 p. m. and when I did fall asleep I had the same dream over and over again. The dream starts with me in the ocean trying to go for a swim and I’m searching for something, but I start to drown(溺水) and have no control over my body. Then a light shines through the waters and when I look up all I can see is myself in a bright white room writing a novel. Then I hear a voice say repeatedly, “Now is the time to try something new!”

It wasn’t just a dream；it was my opportunity to make something good out of my life. That afternoon, I quit my job at the law firm and I couldn’t have been any happier. My life started at 30, and every day since that point I haven’t stopped enjoying life. I started to write and have been on the best-sellers（畅销书） list for the last two months. Things have definitely turned around.

Change is a good thing; it gives us an opportunity to take a chance. So my two favorite words I live by and so should you are “change and chance”.

【1】From the first paragraph, we can know that ________.

A. a lawyer is likely to earn more than a writer

B. it is unlikely that the author becomes a writer

C. the author is a 30-year-old lawyer at present

D. the author prefers to be a lawyer rather than a writer

【2】The second paragraph mainly talks about the author’s ________.

A. strong desire to become a writer

B. difficulty in sleeping at night.

C. wish to have a swim in the waters

D. terrible swimming experience in the ocean.

【3】The best title of the text might be _________.

A. Change and Choice B. Lawyer or Writer

C. Change and Chance D. Risk or Opportunity

【题目】As they walk down the halls during their years together at Shady Side, our boys and girls —— so soon to become men and women —— are learning to think, to work, to question, to be 【1】 and 【2】, to 【3】with others, to laugh at their mistakes and to act 【4】 when 【5】 comes their way.
