分析 文章大意：本文講述了一個小男孩的父親每天下班很晚．小男孩問父親一個小時掙多少錢，父親說每小時50美元．于是小男孩想跟父親借25美元．父親認(rèn)為兒子想買一些沒有用的東西很生氣，過了一會兒，父親認(rèn)為兒子平時很少花錢，就給了小男孩25美元．小男孩拿出自己的零用錢，加上父親借的錢，兒子想和父親買一個小時的時間，讓父親早點回家和自己一起吃晚飯．我們是不是也因為工作或別的原因而很少與孩子相處呢？

1．In the past，falling oil prices have given a boost to the world economy，but recent forecasts for global growth have been toned down（不容樂觀），even as oil prices sink lower and lower．Docs that mean the link between lower oil prices and growth has weakened？
  Some experts say there are still good reasons to believe cheap oil should heat up the world economy．Consumers have more money in their pockets when they're paying less at the pump．They spend that money on other things，which stimulates the economy．
  The biggest gains go to countries that import most of their oil like China，Japan，and India，But doesn't the extra money in the pockets of those countries'consumers mean an equal loss in oil producing countries，cancelling out the gains？Not necessarily，says economic researcher Sara Johnson．"Many oil producers built up huge reserve funds when prices were high，so when prices fall they will draw on their reserves to support government spending，and subsidies（補(bǔ)貼） for their consumers．"
   But not al!oil producers have big reserves．In Venezuela，collapsing oil prices have sent its economy into free-fall．
  Economist Carl Weinberg believes the negative effects of plunging oil prices are overwhelming（壓跨）the positive effects of cheaper oil．The implication（牽連）is a sharp decline in global trade，which has plunged（暴跌）partly because oil-producing nations can't afford to import as much as they used to．
   Sara Johnson acknowledges that the global economic benefit from a fall in oil prices today is likely lower than it was in the past．One reason is that more countries are big oil producers now，so the nations suffering from the price drop account for a larger share of the global economy．
  Consumers，in America at least，are acting cautiously with the savings they're getting at the gas pump，as the memory of the recent great recession（經(jīng)濟(jì)衰退）is still fresh in their mind．And a number of oil-producing countries are trimming their gasoline subsidies and raising taxes，so the net savings for global consumers is not as big as the oil price plunge might suggest．

51．What does the author mainly discuss in the passage？D
A．The reasons behind the plunge of oil prices．
B．Possible ways to stimulate the global economy．
C．The effect of falling oil prices on consumer spending．
D．The impact of cheap oil on global economic growth．
52．Why do some experts believe cheap oil will stimulate the global economy？B
A．Manufacturers can produce consumer goods at a much lower cost．
B．Consumers will spend their saving from cheap oil on other commodities．
C．Lower oil prices have always given a big boost to the global economy．
D．Oil prices may rise or fall but economic laws are not subject to change．
53．What happens in many oil-exporting countries when oil prices go down？A
A．They use their money reserves to back up consumption．
B．They suspend import of necessities from overseas．
C．They reduce production drastically to boost oi1 prices．
D．They try to stop their economy from going into free-fall．
54．How does Carl Weinberg view the current oil price plunge？C
A．It is one that has seen no parallel in economic history．
B．It still has a chance to give rise to a boom in the global economy．
C．Its negative effects more than cancel out its positive effects．
D．Its effects on the global economy go against existing economic laws．
55．Why haven't falling oil prices stimulated the global economy as they did before？C
A．People are not spending all the money they save on gas．
B．The global economy is likely to undergo another recession．
C．Oil importers account for a larger portion of the global economy．
D．People the world over are afraid of a further plunge in oil prices．

6．With just a few minutes left before school was to start，my six-year-old son，Dustin，was pouting （撅嘴）．"I don't want to go，"he said．Ever since he'd entered the first grade，he has hated school．What's going on？I thought as he walked slowly out of the door．If he hates school this much now，how bad will it be later on？
    Every kid sometimes complains about school．But five to ten percent of kids dislike it so much that they don't want to attend school，says Christopher Kearney，director of the Child School Refusal and Anxiety Disorders Clinic at the University of Nevada，Las Vegas．
    If a child seems depressed or anxious about school，fakes illness to stay home，repeatedly winds up in the nurse's or principal's office，or refuses to talk about the school day，you should be concerned，say school psychologists Michael Martin and Cynthia Waltman-Greenwood，co-editors of"Solve Your Child's School-Related Problems"．
    Fortunately，you can usually solve the problem-sometimes very easily．In our case，my husband and I visited Dustin's class and noticed that the teacher，fresh out of college，only called on kids who tried to sit right under her nose quickly．Dustin，who generally sat near the back，was ignored．We simply told him to move up front．He did，and his enthusiasm returned．
41．What was the author's reaction when her son didn't want to go to school？A
A．She was worried．B．She was angry．C．She felt nothing strange．D．She felt sorry．
