Question

【題目】

Ask Angela

Many newspapers have an advice page. So does the school newspaper of Xinhan Middle School. Angela Wang is the editor responsible for the page. Students like to write to her for advice.

Dear Angela,

I’m 16 and I want to leave school this year. My parents say it is too early and that I should be trying to get into high school. I want to work at McDonald’s. Then I can start earning money to buy things.

Jane

Dear Jane,

Your parents are right. It would be better if you can complete as much of your education as possible. Real independence won’t come from earning 150 yuan a week. It will come from the qualifications（資歷、學(xué)歷）and experience that you would gain by staying at school for a couple more years.

Angela

Dear Angela,

My parents and I have been fighting a lot recently. I’m 16, but they still treat me like a kid. My mom calls me 20 times if I don’t get home before 7 p.m. I tried talking to them about this, but they never change. What can I do?

Jim

Dear Jim,

Being angry and standing against your parents will not solve the problem. Try communicating with them from their point of view. Make a list of things you wish to do and another list of your parents’ possible concerns about them. Let your parents know you have learned to be responsible for yourself.

Angela

Dear Angela,

I am having an issue with my Chemistry teacher. She is super nice to my classmates but behaves completely differently towards me. She blames me for things I didn’t do. What should I do?

　　 Mike

Dear Mike,

In a situation like this, you’d better speak to the teacher directly. This way, you can understand why she has a different attitude towards you. Our personal bias（偏見）might influence our thoughts about other people. Make sure the way you feel the teacher treats you isn’t influenced by any bias.

本文是一篇教育文化類閱讀。主要介紹了新翰中學(xué)校報(bào)紙上3個(gè)學(xué)生咨詢Angela的3個(gè)問題建議的回信。

【1】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)原文Mike的信里“I am having an issue with my Chemistry teacher．我和我的化學(xué)老師有個(gè)問題”及“She blames me for things I didn’t do她責(zé)備我沒做的事情”�？芍�Mike不能和化學(xué)老師好好相處。故選C。

【2】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)原文最后Angela給Mike的回信中“Our personal bias（偏見）might influence our thoughts about other people”�？芍�我們的個(gè)人偏見可能會(huì)影響我們對于其他人的想法。故選D。

【3】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)原文，Jim的信中提到“I’m 16，but they still treat me like a kid；我16歲了，他們?nèi)匀话盐铱闯尚『⒆印?/span> Jane的信中提到“I’m 16 and I want to leave school this year我16歲了，我今年想離開學(xué)�！��？芍�Jim和Jane都是16歲，故選C。

【4】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)原文Jim的信中“My parents and I have been fighting a lot recently我父母和我最近總是吵架；I'm 16，but they still treat me like a kid．我16歲了，他們?nèi)匀话盐铱闯尚『⒆樱?/span>I tried talking to them about this，but they never change．我試著跟他們說這個(gè)事情，但是他們從來都不會(huì)改變”，可知Jim和他父母對彼此都不滿意。并且其他三個(gè)選項(xiàng)都不符合文意，故選A。

【5】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)原文，Angela給Jim的回信中“Try communicating with them from their point of view．試著從他們的角度去跟他們交流”可知，Angela讓Jim換一種角度和父母交流。故選C。

【6】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)原文，Angela給Jane的回信中“Real independence won't come from earning 150 yuan a week． It will come from the qualifications （資歷，學(xué)歷）and experience that you would gain by staying at school for a couple more years．真正的獨(dú)立不是來自每周掙150塊錢，它將來自與你從多年待在學(xué)校里收獲到的學(xué)歷和經(jīng)驗(yàn)”可知，真正的獨(dú)立來自與你從多年待在學(xué)校里收獲到的學(xué)歷和經(jīng)驗(yàn)。故選D。
