“That which does not kill us makes us stronger.” But parents can’t handle it when teenagers put this 【1】 into practice. And now technology has become the new field for the age-old battle between adults and their freedom-craving kids.
Locked indoors, unable to get on their bicycles and hang out with their friends, teens have turned to social media and their mobile phones to 【2】 with their friends. What they do online often mirrors what they might otherwise do if their mobility wasn’t so 【3】 limited in the age of helicopter parenting. Social media and smart phones apps have become so popular in recent years. Teens want the freedom to explore their 【4】 and the world around them, so they jump online.
As teens have moved online, parents have projected their 【5】 onto the Internet, imagining all the potential dangers that youth might face--from violent strangers to cruel peers.
Rather than helping teens develop strategies for discussing public life and the potential risks of interacting with others, fearful parents have focused on tracking, monitoring and 【6】. These don’t help teens develop the skills they need to manage complex social situations, assess risks and get help when they’re in trouble. It gradually weakens the learning that teens need to do as they come of age in a technology-soaked world.
The key to helping youth handle 【7】 life isn’t more restrictions. It’s freedom-plus communication. Famed urban theorist Jane Jacobs used to argue that the safest neighborhoods were those where communities 【8】 took interest in and paid attention to what happened on the streets. Safety didn’t come from keeping everyone indoors but from a 【9】 to watch out for one another. The same is true online.
Teens need the freedom to wander the 【10】 street, but they also need to know that caring adults are behind them and supporting them wherever they go.

【解析】
这是一篇说明文。文章讲述了科技已经成为成年人和渴望自由的孩子之间斗争的新领域。文章分析了为何孩子们会沉迷于新科技以及为何父母会强化对孩子们使用新科技的控制。
【1】考查名词。句意:但是,当青少年将这一哲理付诸实践时,父母们就无法接受了。分析句子,划线前有代词this,判断此处应填“名词”。且this指代的是开头那句“那些没有杀死我们的,使我们更强大”。是“哲理”。故选G项。
【2】考查动词。句意:由于被锁在室内,无法骑自行车和朋友们出去玩,青少年们开始通过社交媒体和手机与朋友们进行交往。分析句子,划线前的to 为不定式的to,故划线处应该填动词表示目的。又因句意,被锁家中,与他人交往受限。所以青少年倾向于用手机和他们的朋友交往。故选J项。
【3】考查副词。句意:他们在网上所做的往往反映出,如果他们的行动能力在望子成龙时代没有那么大的限制,他们可能会做什么。分析句子,so 后加形容词或者副词译为“太…”,而后面的limited是动词。因此此处应填副词。分析句意,青少年的活动受到望子成龙父母的极大限制。此处强调的是一种程度。故选F项。
【4】
考查名词。句意:青少年想要自由探索他们的身份和周围的世界,所以他们会上网。分析句子,根据划线后的and判断出链接两个并列成分,the world是名词,所以该处可以断定缺少名词。备选项中 H,I,K都是名词。在根据句意,青少年渴望自由去探索他们的身份和周围的世界。故选H项。
【5】考查名词。句意:随着青少年上网,家长们把他们的恐惧投射到网络上,想象年轻人可能面临的所有潜在危险——从暴力的陌生人到残忍的同龄人。分析句子,根据划线前的their(形容词性物主代词),初步判断后面缺少名词。在结合后半句“想象年轻人可能面临的所有潜在危险”。这是一种恐惧心理。故选E项。
【6】考查名词。句意:恐惧的父母没有帮助青少年制定讨论公共生活和与他人互动的潜在风险的策略,而是将注意力集中在跟踪、监控和阻止上。分析句子,and前面的两个动词tracking, monitoring 都用了doing形式。所以此处也应该补充一个同类型的词。分析句意,只有A适合,表示“跟踪,监控并且阻止(孩子们使用网络)”。故选A项。
【7】考查形容词。句意:帮助年轻人应对当代生活的关键不是更多的限制。分析句子,“应对_____生活”,此处缺少形容词修饰“生活”。分析句意,应指“当代生活”。故选C项。
【8】考查副词。句意:最安全的社区是那种有着共同的兴趣并且随时关注街道的情况的地方。分析句子,划线后的took为动词,故此需用副词来修饰。备用选项只剩下B项为副词,表示“共同地,集体地”符合句意。故选B项。
【9】考查名词。句意:安全并非来自让每个人都呆在室内,而是来自彼此守望的意愿。分析句子,划线前有冠词a,故可判断此处应填名词。又根据not…but 译为“不是…而是”表示前后相反。综合分析,故选K项。
【10】考查形容词。句意:青少年需要在数字时时代自由的漫步,但论他们走到哪里,他们也需要知道有爱心的成年人在背后支持他们。分析句子,划线后的词性为名词,故此处需填形容词对其修饰。又因通篇讲孩子将自己沉浸在网络中,因此这里用与之相关的词digital 译为“数码的,数字的”符合句意。故选D项。
