解答 11．A 考查細(xì)節(jié)理解題．根據(jù)第一段的Located at 2289 Main Street，the Book Nook is within walking distance of schools，many homes and businesses位于2289號主街上，the Book Nook在學(xué)校、許多家庭和交易住所步行的范圍之內(nèi)，由此可推斷出選A．
12．D 考查細(xì)節(jié)題．根據(jù)文章Saturday，October 4，10 AM to 10 PM部分的●One Book-of-the-Month Club membership giveaway （贈送）可知在10月4日這一天可免費得到所贈送的一個月的俱樂部成員身份．故選D．

點評 本篇文章都是細(xì)節(jié)推理題，答題的已給選項也一般不會和短文相關(guān)詞語完全相同，需要考生自己理解句子，延伸推理出題目答案，比一般細(xì)節(jié)理解題偏難．

3．閱讀短文，并按照題目要求用英語回答問題．
Weaving hammocks（吊床）is an art that takes a sharp eye，a skilled hand and lots of patience．But in Lenwood Haddock's case，being blind works to his advantage．His trained，sensitive hands are acutely aware of every step of the complex process．Since beginning his work in 1986，Lenwood has woven about 145，000 perfect hammocks．
Now 61，Lenwood lost his sight in 1973，at age 18，during a hunting accident．"My whole working career has been blind，"he says．He first found a job as a woodworker，but when that organization closed，he was connected him with Hatteras Hammocks．
On his first day of work，"I did a total of one hammock，"Lenwood recalls，laughing．"And then I came home and laid on the couch and went to sleep．I lift weights，but I wasn't as tough as I thought until I started weaving．It takes a lot of energy，and you're standing up all day．"
In time，however，Lenwood got into a good working rhythm and found he had a knack for the job．At first he worked at the company，but after a year Lenwood moved his operation to the home workshop where he'd worked for 10 years during his woodworking days．
He creates dozons of hammocks each week in a variety of sizes．One day，he realized the step counter on his phone recorded him walking eight miles without ever leaving his shop．
The process of weaving a hammock involves making and catching hundreds of loops．A single missed stitch（針） creates a hole that can widen and make the hammock uncomfortable or even dangerous to use．Experienced weavers miss loops sometimes，but to his company's knowledge，Lenwood has never turned in a hammock with even one dropped stitch．
With every hammock，Lenwood devotes himself to producing perfection．"I'm not sure how sighted people do it，"he admits．

56．What made Lenwood Haddock's weaving hammocks special？（No more than 2 words）Being blind．Or His blindness．
57．How did Lenwood Haddock feel after his first day of work？（No more than 10 words）He was very tired．Or He felt very tired．
58．What will happen if a single stitch is missed？（No more than 15 words）This will make the hammock uncomfortable or even dangerous to use．
59．What is the meaning of the underlined part in Paragraph 4？（No more than 8 words）He got the trick of weaving hammocks．Or He had a way/skill of doing the job．
60．What qualities does Lenwood Haddock have？And how do they affect you？（No more than 25 words）Devotion，perfection，strictness and so on．These qualities are valuable to me．I will try my best to learn to be devoted，perfect and strict in everything with myself．．

2．There is a problem discussed by people about whether parents should hit their children？Or should they ever beat them？
Research suggests many of us are likely to respond"no"，and public support for spanking （打屁股） has been falling over the years．But surveys also show that 75percent to nearly 90percent of parents admit spanking their child at least once．
I was raised in a zero-tolerance home for disrespect，and my parents often turned to physical punishment．And，no，I don't feel I was damaged by it．
Nothing is more annoying than watching ill-mannered behavior from children．
But there is data to suggest that a return to old-school spanking isn't the answer．
Two years ago，Newsweek reported that it had found data suggesting that teens whose parents used physical punishment were more likely to become aggressive．
Murray Straus，professor at the University of New Hampshire in America，has studied the topic of children and spanking for decades．He said that children who were physically punished have lower IQs than their peers．It may be that children with lower IQs were more likely to get spanked，but the punishment may have been counterproductive （反作用的） to their mental development，as well．
Some researchers make the argument that occasional open-handed smacks （用巴掌打） on the bottom are not only harmless but can have some benefit．
Last year，Marjorie Gunnoe，a psychologist at Calvin College，studied teens who have never been spanked．There are a greater number of children growing up without ever having been physically punished．Gunnoe's research suggests they don't turn out any better than those who were sometimes spanked．
There are some parents who simply cannot control their tempers．But I still believe that the best parents are the ones who are able to offer fair and firm discipline （紀(jì)律） without ever turning to physical punishment．

21．According to the passage，the author was most probably hit by her parents whenB．
A．they could not control teir temper
B．she showed no respect for the elder
C．they were dissatisfied with her grade
D．their discipline turned out to be not strict enough
22．According to Murray Straus，children who are physically punishedC．
A．benefit from occasional spanking
B．have slower physical development
C．may develop lower IQs than their peers
D．a(chǎn)re less aggressive towards others when they get older
23．The author seems to agree thatB．
A．physical punishment should be the last means of any parents
B．good parents discipline their children in a fair and reasonable way
C．parents should determine whether a child needs to be smacked or not
D．children who have been spanked tend to behave better than those who haven't．

16．A family has been defined as a couple and their children，sharing a common house and dividing the work by gender．In general，the woman has to be at home，looking after her children，while the man works outside the home．In fact，in 2014，only 15percent of all American families resembled the so-called typical American family．
Nuclear Family （The Formal Type!）
A nuclear family is considered to be the most traditional family，consisting of a mother，a father，and the children．This family type holds a lot of respect by society，known as the ideal one to raise children．It is believed that children belonging to the two-parent structure families are stabe．However，with changing times，it has been observed that the nuclear structure has become less popular．
Single Parent Family （Mostly the Breadwinner Parent!）
A single parent is the one who looks after the child without the assistance of the other parent．The child can be by birth or adoption．Single parent families are often the result of death of another parent，divorce of a couple with children，or child abuse．There's another case where adults who want children but do not have a partner，adopt kids-usually termed as single parent adoption．
Grandparent-led Family （The Wrinkled Affection!）
Lots of grandparents are raising their grandchildren today．Reasons can be varied，like parents'death，or unfit parents．Many grandparents need to go back to their working phase for finding a source of income to raise their grandchildren．
Blended （混合的） and Step Family （Sometimes the Black Sheep Type!）
Two separate families blending together to form a single unit can lead to the creation of a blended or step family．Step families are becoming common in America．Over half of the marriages en in divorce，and many of these individuals prefer getting remarried，thereby creating the step family．It can consist of a new husband，a wife，and their children from previous relationships or marriages．These families have more problems because their kids do not get comfortable，and have adjustment and discipline issues．
Extended Family （The More，The Merrier!）
An extended family is the one that enlarges beyond the immediate family，which can consist of grandparents，uncles，aunts，cousins and so on，living under a single roof．There are certain advantages to such family groups．The members （especially children） feel more secure and safe due to elder guidance and sharing of resources during a crisis，and have more role models to help maintain desired etiquette and values．
Childless Family （Child-free Companions!）
While most people think of family as including children，there are couples who are very young and intend to have children later，or those who cannot，or choose not to have children．This type is also called the"forgotten family"，as it does not meet the set in definition of family．It has been observed that many of the childless families own pets or have external contacts with their nieces and nephews as a substitute for having their own children．
As you can see，there are various family structures．The American society tends to promote the traditional family through various media； children who fall under other categories may feel that theirs is not a real family．They may get self-conscious about being part of a family which is"different"．In some cases，they might face social challenges，too．
25．All of the following may contribute to a single parent family EXCEPTA．
A．a(chǎn) bad-tempered parent     
B．a(chǎn) broken marriage
C．the death of one parent     
D．a(chǎn) single adult adopting a child
26．According to the passage，in grandparent-led families，D．
A．the children gain more respect from society
B．the children face more challenges in society
C．the"parents"give more guidance to children
D．the"parents"have to work again to raise children
27．What kind of family is most likely to keep a pet？C
A．A nuclear family．
B．An extended family．
C．A childless family．
D．A step family．
28．What might be the best title for the passage？A
A．Types of family structures in America
B．Life in a typical American family
C．Family structures matter a lot in America
D．Different families have different values and needs．
