阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出最佳选项。

Many times when children make a mistake,starting with breaking a window while playing football or skipping classes and ending with stealing something or fighting with another child,parents are always blamed by the society for not having known how to educate their offsprings(后代).The situation is not that easy to explain.

Parents always look for the best interest of their children and many times they are ready to take measures only for their sake.They know their children are suffering when they are forced to stay indoors or when they have no money,but they have to teach them a lesson so that they won’t repeat the same mistakes over and over again.When a child realizes that his father is talking seriously about him not being allowed to do something,he understands the seriousness of his deeds and he knows he will think twice before making the same mistake again.

These are the cases of the responsible parents,who suffer when they see that their children are not happy but who resist the temptation of forgiving them so easily so that they realize the gravity of their actions not only at present but also in the future.

On the other hand there are parents who always find excuses for their children’s behavior,who never consider they make mistakes or if they just do what they call “childish” things.

When you buy your children everything he has ever dreamt of or when you tell him he can wear a necklace even if he is only 13,he will become so spoiled that he won’t take into consideration anything of what you are telling him later on.He will get to the point where he steals from the house or from a shop so that he can afford to buy cigarettes or drugs.

A.It is the parents who are to blame when their children make mistakes.

B.Children are easy to make mistakes.

C.It is not always right to blame parents when their children make mistakes.

2.According to the author,if a child makes a mistake,the parents should .

A.teach the child a lesson

B.understand the child and forgive him or her

C.not make him or her stay indoors

D.not forgive him or her at all

3.We can infer from the passage that .

A.parents’ attitude towards their children’s mistakes affects their children’s behavior greatly

B.parents’ excuses for their children’s behavior make no difference to their children

C.children are hard to educate if they often make mistakes

D.parents who make excuses for their children’s bad deeds are not good parents

4.The purpose of writing this passage is to .

A.tell us it is normal that children make mistakes

B.show parents how to deal with the children who make mistakes

C.make us know why children often make mistakes

D.give some advice on how to forgive the children who make mistakes

阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C和D项中,选出最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

“Have a nice day!” may be a pleasant gesture or a meaningless expression.When my friend Maxie says “Have a nice day” with a smile, I know she sincerely cares about what happens to me.I feel loved and secure since another person cares about me and wishes me well.

“Have a nice day.Next!” The version of the expression is spoken by a salesgirl at supermarket who is rushing me and my groceries out the door.The words came out in the same tone (腔调) with a fixed procedure.They_are_spoken_at_me,_not_to_me. Obviously, the concern for my day and everyone else's is the management's attempt to increase business.

The expression is one of those behaviors that help people get along with each other.Sometimes it indicates the end of a meeting.As soon as you hear it, you know the meeting is at an end.Sometimes the expression saves us when we don't know what to say.“Oh, you just had a tooth out? I'm terribly sorry, but have a nice day.”

The expression can be pleasant.If a stranger says “Have a nice day” to you, you may find it heart­warming because someone you don't know has tried to be nice to you.

Although the use of the expression is insincere, meaningless social custom at times, there is nothing wrong with the sentence except that it is a little uninteresting.The salesgirl, the waitress, the teacher, and all the countless others who speak it without thinking may not really care about my day.But in a strange and comfortable way, it's nice to know they care enough to pretend they care when they really don't care all that much.While the expression may not often be sincere, it is always spoken.The point is that people say it all the time when they like.

1.How does the author understand Maxie's words?

A.Maxie shows her anxiety to the author.

B.Maxie really wishes the author a good day.

C.Maxie encourages the author to stay happy.

D.Maxie really worries about the author's security.

2.What does the underlined sentence in Paragraph 2 mean?

A.The salesgirl is rude.

B.The salesgirl is bored.

C.The salesgirl cares about me.

D.The salesgirl says the words as a routine.

3.By saying “Have a nice day”, a stranger may _______.

A.try to be polite to you

B.express respect to you

C.give his blessing to you

D.share his pleasure with you

4.According to the last paragraph, people say“Have a nice day” _________.

A.sincerely B.as thanks

C.as a habit D.encouragingly

5.What is the best title of the passage?

A.Have a Nice Day—a Social Custom

B.Have a Nice Day—a Pleasant Gesture

C.Have a Nice Day—a Heart­warming Greeting

D.Have a Nice Day—a Polite Ending of a Conversation

Windmills(风车)dot the landscape,producing a renewable energy source.Our pioneer ancestors established windmills as a means of bringing water to the surface.To tell the truth,the history of wind energy is very long.Since early recorded history,people have been harnessing the energy of the wind.Wind energy drove boats along the Nile River as early as 5000 BC.By 200 BC,simple windmills in China were pumping water,while well-designed windmills were grinding(磨)grain in Persia and the Middle East.

New innovations and curiosity helped spread interest in windmills and wind power.Middle Eastern citizens used them for food production by the 11th century.Merchants along trade routes returned to Europe and shared the idea.Windmills caught on,especially in Holland,and the Dutch improved their use.Here,windmills drained lakes and other bodies of water.In France,the windmill pumped irrigation water.Elsewhere in Europe,windmills were used to grind grain.

By the 19th century,settlers in the United States realized the importance of the simple windmill.Pioneers pumped water for livestock(牲畜)and farming.As estimated six million windmills dotted America’s landscape by the end of the 1880s.Charles Brush,the US inventor,invented a windmill capable of producing electricity in 1888.And now the machines are called wind turbines.As late as the 1920s,Americans used small windmills to provide electricity in rural areas without electric service.When power lines began to transport electricity to rural areas in the 1930s,local windmills were used less and less,though they can still be seen on some Western farms.

In the 1970s,oil shortages pushed the development of alternative energy sources,paving the way for the re-entry of the windmill to produce electricity.In the early 1980s,wind energy really took off in California,partly because of State policies that encouraged renewable energy sources.In the 1990s,the push came from a renewed concern for the environment in response to scientific studies indicating potential changes to the global climate if the use of fossil fuels continues to increase.Wind energy is an economical power resource in many areas of the country.

Wind energy isn’t a new phenomenon,but using wind turbines to create and use electricity is a trend that continues to sweep across the globe.

1.The underlined word “harnessing” in Paragraph 1 is the closest in meaning to “ ”.

A.having influence on

B.controlling and using

C.talking about and studying

D.showing interest in

2.As for the application of windmills,Europe .

A.became well-known all over the world first

Uncivilized behavior by passengers unacceptable

For the first time, airline passengers have been blacklisted for uncivilized behavior. Their names will remain on the blacklist for one or two years, according to an announcement by the China Air Transport Association on Saturday. The blacklisting means they will not be able to travel by air until their names are removed from the list.

Blacklisting passengers who disobey the rules for traveling by air and so place their own interests before everything else, including safety, has long been overdue (迟到的,延迟的).

There have been frequent reports of passengers making a scene when their flight was delayed or when they believed that they were not treated as they should be on a flight.

Yet it is natural for some flights to be delayed because of reasons such as bad weather or mechanical problems that need to be solved. However, some passengers seem to take it for granted that their flight must take off at the time stated on their ticket, and they even assume that the members of the cabin crew are simply there to do their bidding(吩咐).

They forget that they should behave themselves in the first place and that respect is reciprocal (互相给与的).There is no reason for them to be respected when they do not show enough respect for others.

Observing rules can never be over-emphasized when it comes to flight safety. No one has the right to disregard the rules for any reason. Of course, airlines should provide quality services to meet the needs of passengers. Yet, even if passengers are not satisfied with the service provided, there is still no reason for them to flout the rules that are designed for the safety of all.

The blacklisting of these three passengers should serve for others to know they have to toe the line (顺从集体).

1.Which of the following statements is TRUE?

A. Never before have airline passengers been blacklisted.

B. At no time should flights be delayed, whatever the reasons.

C. Members of the cabin crew should be at the passengers’ service at any moment.

D. If an airline passenger is blacklisted, he or she will never be allowed to travel by air.

2.The underlined word “observing” in paragraph 6 is closest in meaning to ________.

A. abolishing B. violating

C. setting D. obeying

3.According Paragraph 4, the author’s attitude towards some passengers is ________.

A. Tolerate B. Curious

C. Critical D. Neutral

4.The text is most probably taken from ________.

A. a research paper B. a newspaper report

C. an advertisement D. a flight guide
