【解析】

试题分析:本文属于记叙文,讲述了我冒着被别人嘲笑的危险,和一位精神有问题的人进行了一次有趣的对话,这让我们都很开心。

【1】later 考查副词。本句中副词later晚些时候,在句中做状语。句意:因为那天的晚些时候我有一个约会,所以我早就离开了。

【2】until 考查时间状语连词。连词until直到....才....,在句中引导时间状语从句;句意:我的朋友陪我走到公交车站台和我一起等待直到公交车到站。

【3】sitting 考查宾语补足语。本句中a man与动词sit构成主动关系,所以使用现在分词短语在句中做宾语补足语。句意:那时我注意到一个人站在前面。

【4】was pretending考查时态。本句叙述我注意到他的时候,他正在做的时间。而这件事情是在星期天早晨发生的,所以使用过去进行时表示过去正在发生的事情。

【5】mentally 考查副词。在英语中通常使用副词做状语修饰形容词、副词或动词,所以本句中使用副词mentally修饰形容词disabled。

【6】whom 考查定语从句。本句定语从句的先行词是other people,关系动词whom指代先行词作为介词to的宾语。句意:在他后面的是其他一些他想交谈的人。

【7】they 考查代词。本句中they指代前句中的people,在句中作主语。句意:过了几分钟,他们都走开了坐在我的旁边,看起来都很生气。

【8】on考查固定搭配。介词短语on one's own独自;句意:我不想因为和他说话而被嘲笑,但我也不想让他独自呆着。

【9】an 考查冠词。本句中名词“conversation对话”是一个可数名词,前面使用不定冠词修饰,表示泛指。句意:我们进行了一次有趣的对话。

【10】both 考查代词。根据上下文可知我和那位精神有问题的人进行了对话,这让我们两个人都很开心。所以使用both指代我们两个人。

【题目】阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出最佳选项

When you’re a parent to a young child, you spend a lot of time talking about feelings: about having to share, about being disappointed because you may not have a cookie instead of broccoli(绿花椰菜), about the great injustice of a parent pressing the elevator button before the child has a chance to.

And in a parenting culture that’s increasingly concerned with centering children’s needs above all else, mothers and fathers have become skillful at talking about their kids’ feelings while masking their own. But new research suggests that parents who hide their negative emotions are doing their children, and themselves harm.

A study published this month says that when parents put on a faux-happy (假开心)face for their kids, they do damage to their own sense of wellbeing and authenticity.

“For the average parent the findings suggest when they attempt to hide their negative emotion expression and over express their positive emotions with their children, it actually comes at a cost: doing so may lead parents to feel worse themselves,” researcher Dr Emily Impett, says.

It makes sense that parents often fall back on amping up (扩大) the positivity for the sake of their children—there are a lot of things in the world we want to protect our kids from. But children are often smarter than we expect and are quite in tune with what the people closest to them—their parents—are feeling.

There was a time about a year or so ago, for example, when I received some bad news over the phone; I was home with my four-year-old and so I did my best to put on a brave face. She knew immediately something was wrong though, and was confused.

When I finally let a few tears out and explained that Mom heard something sad about a friend, she was, of course, just fine. My daughter patted my shoulder, gave me a hug, and went back to playing. She felt better that she was able to help me, and the moment made a lot more sense to her emotionally than a smiling mom holding back sobs. I was glad that I could feel sad momentarily and not have to work hard to hide that.

Relaying positive feelings to your children when you don’t feel them is a move the researchers called high cost—that it may seem like the most beneficial to your child at the time but that parents should find other ways of communicating emotions that “allow them to feel true to themselves”.

But this is also about children seeing the world in a more honest way. While we will want to protect our children from things that aren’t age-appropriate or harmful, it’s better to raise a generation of kids who understand that moms and dads are people too.
