  American teenagers have always worked for extra pocket money. 1 their predecessors(前辈), today’s young people are 2 to work long hours during the week for hundreds of dollars each month. They spend the money 3 themselves rather than contributing it 4 their families. In a 1997 5 of 16000 high school seniors nationwide, it was 6 that eighty percent of students who worked 7 their earnings on their own 8 such as clothing, stereo equipment, records and movies. 9 five percent said they contributed most of their income, which often exceeded, $ 200 a month, to help pay family living 10 The benefits of this work-and-spend ethics(伦理观)are being 11 argued, Some experts, and many parents, 12 that year-round part-time employment increases youngsters’ 13 of worth, teaches them financial(财政的) 14 and reduces tension, and thus conflict(冲突) 15 the family. Other, 16 , argue that working teenagers are separated, physically and financially, 17 their families, which in turn 18 parental authority.

  Teenagers’ schoolwork can also suffer.“When youngsters 19 for luxuries, they are buying distraction 20 education,”said a program director for the U.S.Department of Education. Working teenagers themselves say they have less time to spend with their friends and families.

答案:B;C;B;A;D;B;D;B;B;A;B;A;A;B;B;C;C;A;D;A
解析:

(1) B 从下文的叙述来看,全文讲述了父母挣钱之外,美国的青少年也打工赚钱,因此用B表示“不只是,不仅仅”。(2) C be likely to do sth.表示有可能会做某事,与上下文的语气和句意相吻合,表示不只是他们的前辈,今天的年轻人也可能为了每个月几百美元而每周工作很长时间。(3) B 不是表示“自己花钱”,而是“把钱花在自己身上”,与下文的“而不是……”形成对比。(4) A contribute...to...固定短语,表示“把……奉献给……”。(5) D 从四个选项的词义来看,A表示“观点”,B表示“视察”,C表示“观察”。而本句的“全国性”“1997年”等词表明这应该是全国范围的调查。(6) B 下文是调查中反映出的数字变化,不是人们的建议、劝诫,也不是report,而是人们透过数字的“发现”。(7) D 从下文的叙述(比如衣服、听力设备、录音机)可知他们把打工赚的钱,花在这些方面。(8) B 钱花到买衣服、买立体声录音机等个人需求上。(9) B 与上文的80%对比,只有5%的人这么做。(10) A 帮助支付家庭生活开支。living expenses表示“(日常)生活开支”,expense表示“花费”。(11) B 一场激烈的争论,heated表示“热烈的,激烈的”,在本句用副词形式作状语。(12) A 既然是激烈的争论,有些人坚持这种观点,表示“坚持”用A,此时从句不用虚拟语气而是陈述语气。(13) A sense表示“理念,观念,感觉”,sense of worth表示“价值观”。(14) B 此时在讲述让孩子学习之余打工赚钱的益处,可以培养他们在经济/理财方面的责任感。(15) B 家庭内部由于经济紧张引发的冲突,用withinin表示“家庭内部”。(16) C 此时讲述反对派的观点,用C引起上下文,表转折。(17) C be separated from表示“与……隔离开”。(18) A 孩子打工赚钱,这使他与家人有了经济上和情感上的隔阂,这样一来这种情况就削弱了家长的权威。weaken表示“使……减弱”,与“强化”相对,而C表示“减少”,语意不符合上下文。(19) D 他们工作的目的是为了享受。(20) A 他们买到的是从学业上分心,即偏离了其初衷,违背了教育的本质。

  One Easter Sunday, all the kids   3   with big eyes and big   4   about what the Easter Bunny(复活节小兔)had brought.  5   all of the kids shared their stories with   6  , one young boy , whom I shall call Bobby, sat   7  .One of the teachers , noticing this, said to him, “And what did the Easter Bunny   8   you?”He replied, “My mom   9   the door by accident so the Easter Bunny couldn't get   10   because he hadn't got a key.”
