Most parents, I suppose, have had the experience of reading a bedtime story their children. And they must have realized how difficult it is to write a good children’s book. Either the author has aimed too , so that children can’t follow what is in his ( or more often, her ) story, ________ the story seems to be talking to the readers.

The best children’s books are very difficult nor very simple, and satisfy the child who hears the story and the adult who reads it. Unfortunately, there are in fact few books like this, ________ the problem of finding the right bedtime story is not to solve. This may be why many of the books regarded as works of children’s literature were in fact written for . “Alice in Wonderland” is perhaps the most obvious（明显）of this.

Children, left for themselves, often the worst possible interest in literature. Just leave a child in a bookshop or a library and he will more willingly choose the books written in an unimaginative way, or have a look at the most children’s comics, full of the stories and jokes which are the rejections of teachers and righting-thinking parents.

试题分析：短文大意：本文说明了写一本供孩子读的好书并非一件容易的事，并且告诫家长不要一味强迫孩子接受大人的观点，因为孩子和大人在兴趣方面不尽相同。本文具有一定的教育意义，有助于改变家长一些错误的观点。

【1】A考查介词及语境理解。句意：我想，大多数父母都有过给孩子读睡前故事的经历。to到； in在……里；with和，有；around在周围。read to somebody 意为“读给某人听”，to后面接动作的对象。所以选A。

【2】C考查形容词及语境理解。句意：要么是作者的目标定得太高。easy容易的；short短的，矮的；high高的；difficult困难的。书中的内容让孩子们无法理解，说明作者的目标定得高。所以选C。

【3】C考查连词及语境理解。句意：让孩子们不能跟随他（或她）的故事，或者故事似乎是与读者交谈。 And和；but但是；or或者；so所以。与前文either 对应，这里应用or. “either…or” 意义为“要么……要么……”。所以选C。

【4】B考查形容词及语境理解。句意：最好的儿童读物是既不非常困难也不很简单。Both两者都； neither两者都不；either两者中的任何一者；very非常。与下半句的nor 对应，这里应用neither。 “ neither…nor…” 意为“既不……也不……”。所以选B。

【5】C考查连词及语境理解。句意：所以找到合适的睡前故事的问题不是容易解决的。 But但是；however然而；so所以；because因为。前后两句形成因果关系，所以应用so引导结果状语从句。故选C。

【6】B考查形容词及语境理解。句意：所以找到合适的睡前故事问题不是容易解决的。hard困难的；easy容易的；enough足够的；fast快。根据上文讲好书越来越少，说明去发现好书并非是容易的事。所以选B。

【7】A考查名词及语境理解。句意：这可能是为什么许多的书被认为是儿童文学作品，事实上写的是成人。grown-ups 成人；girls女孩们；boys男孩们；children孩子们。根据下文“许多孩子不愿看这一类的儿童文学作品”，所以，这些作品实际上是给成年人看的，因此选A。

【8】B考查动词及语境理解。句意：若任孩子自由发展，孩子往往表现出对文学毫无兴趣。Are是；show展示；find找到；add加。依据后文interest应选show。show interest in something 意为“对……感兴趣”。故选B。

【9】C考查动词及语境理解。句意：也许我们的父母应该停止尝试对孩子洗脑让他们接受我们对文学的鉴赏。Going去；liking喜欢； trying尝试；preferring更喜欢。try to do something 意为“想法设法做某事”，符合当今社会实际情况，为正确选项。所以选C。

【10】C考查形容词及语境理解。句意：毕竟，孩子和成年人是如此的不同，我们的父母不应该期望他们会喜欢相同的书籍。same同样的；friendly友好的；different不同的；common普通的。家长不要期望孩子门会接纳他们的观点，因为两者大不相同。故选择different。
