11.Children's lives have changed greatly over the last 50years.But do they have a happier childhood than you or I did?
It's difficult to look back on one's own childhood without some element of nostalgia(懷舊的).I have four brothers and sisters,and my memories are all about being with them.Playing board games on the living room floor,or spending days in the street with the other neighborhood children,racing up and down on our bikes,or exploring the nearby woods.My parents scarcely appear in these memories,except as providers either of meals or of severe blame after some particularly risky adventure.
These days,in the UK at least,the nature of childhood has changed dramatically.Firstly,families are smaller,and there are far more only children.It is common for both parents to work outside the home and there is the feeling that there just isn't time to bring up a large family,or that no one could possibly afford to have more than one child.As a result,today's boys and girls spend much of their time alone.Another major change is that youngsters today tend to spend a huge amount of their free time at home,inside.More than anything this is due to the fact that parents worry far more than they used to about real or imagined dangers,so they wouldn't dream of letting their children play outside by themselves.
Finally,the kind of toys children have and the way they play is totally different.Computer and video games have replaced the board games and more interesting activities of my childhood.The irony(令人啼笑皆非的事情) is that so many ways of playing games are called"interactive".The fact that you can play electronic games on your own further increases the sense of loneliness felt by many young people today.
Do these changes mean that children today have a less relaxing childhood than I had?I personally believe that they do,but perhaps every generation feels exactly the same.
56.What is the purpose of the direct question given in the first paragraph?D
A.To show who the passage is written for.
B.To gather people's opinions on childhood.
C.To compare the childhood lives of two generations.
D.To get people's attention and lead in the topic.
57.Which is NOT a reason for the changes?C
A.Families are smaller today.      
B.Toys can be played by children alone at home.
C.It's too dangerous to play outside. 
D.Parents worried too much about their children.
58.What has the writer focused on in the fourth paragraph?A
A.Some games that young people play today aren't really good.
B.Computer and video games have replaced the board games.
C.Young people today shouldn't play electronic games.
D.Board games are much more interesting than computer games.

分析 文章中作者陳述了現(xiàn)在孩子童年發(fā)生了變化和產(chǎn)生變化的原因,問(wèn)題是現(xiàn)在的孩子是否更快樂(lè)應(yīng)該受道家長(zhǎng)們的關(guān)注.

解答 56  D  推斷題.由后文作者論述隨著時(shí)代發(fā)展,不同時(shí)代的人的童年也在發(fā)生變化可知作者在第一段提出"But do they have a happier childhood than you or I did?"這個(gè)問(wèn)題是為了主導(dǎo)全文的話題并引起讀者注意,D正確.
57  C  細(xì)節(jié)題.由第三段第二句"Firstly,families are smaller,and there are far more only children."和第五、六句"Another major change is that youngsters today tend to spend a huge amount of their free time at home,inside.More than anything this is due to the fact that parents worry far more than they used to about real or imagined dangers"可知變化產(chǎn)生的原因中沒(méi)有涉及到"在戶外玩耍太危險(xiǎn)",所以四個(gè)選項(xiàng)中只有C項(xiàng)不是變化產(chǎn)生的原因,故正確答案為C.
58  A  由第四段最后一句"The fact that you can play electronic games on your own further increases the sense of loneliness felt by many young people today."可知作者寫(xiě)第四段的目的是證明現(xiàn)在的一些游戲有很多缺點(diǎn),因此對(duì)于青少年并沒(méi)有什么好處,所以A項(xiàng)正確.

點(diǎn)評(píng) 本文是人生感悟類閱讀理解.做這類題材閱讀理解時(shí)要求考生對(duì)文章通讀一遍,做題時(shí)結(jié)合原文和題目有針對(duì)性的找出相關(guān)語(yǔ)句進(jìn)行仔細(xì)分析,結(jié)合選項(xiàng)選出正確答案.推理判斷題也是要在抓住關(guān)鍵句子的基礎(chǔ)上合理的分析才能得出正確答案,切忌胡亂猜測(cè),一定要做到有理有據(jù)

2.The following is a father's advice to his son/daughter,who has just graduated from high school:
First of all,congratulations on your graduation!Graduation from high school means that a new stage of life is ahead of you.At the beginning of this new stage,I have some advice for you.
Clean your own room and do your own laundry(洗衣物的活).After you have messed up(弄亂)something,you should learn to clean it up yourself.Cleanliness is indeed close to godliness.
Don't mistake knowledge for wisdom.No matter how much information or knowledge you have gained,you'll never make sound judgments if you don't have wisdom.Wisdom comes from imagination and reflection (反省).If you can imagine the possible future outcomes of your present decisions and actions,you can avoid mistakes.And if you can reflect on the mistakes you have made,you can avoid making the same mistakes again and again.Such is wisdom.
Don't complain.When you take up a job,do your best to carry it out.Don't waste time complaining about it,no matter how difficult and boring it is.
At last,be an early bird.If you get up earlier than the sun,you can watch it rising up slowly into the sky.And the sight of the rising sun will warm your heart and give you energy for the day ahead.Besides,being an early bird,you have plenty of time to take exercise or do a lot of work.

16.Towards the end of the Qing Dynasty,the conditions in Beijing's hutongs went down as the political situation cast a dark cloud on China's economy.Many new hutongs were quickly built(61)to house  (house) the increasing population but these were poorly made.The (62)turning (turn) point came when the People's Republic of China (63)was founded(found).Conditions improved (64)a great deal and the government undertook the preservation of many of the oldest hutongs.
