【题目】阅读理解
Eat your vegetables.Wash your hands.Always say“please”and“thank you”.We are full of advice for our children, but when it comes to money,we often have little to say.As a result,our children may grow up with clean hands and good manners,but without any idea how to manage their money.
Here are some basics that will help guide them their entire lives:
Show them the future.If your 13-year-old girl were to save $1.000,invest(投资)it at 8% and add $100 every month,by the time she's 65,she would have $980,983!
Be careful of credit(信用).Credit cards can help you buy necessary things and build a credit history,but they must be used responsibly,which means paying off your debt in time.Explain to your children that when you buy something using a credit card,you can easily end up paying two or three times what you would have paid if you used cash.
Teach patience.Suppose your child wants a new bicycle that costs $150.Rather than paying the cash,give him some regular pocket money and explain that by putting aside,say,$15 each week,he will be able to buy it for himself in only ten weeks.
Provide incentive(激励机制).Tell your children the importance of saving."For every dollar he or she agrees to save and invest rather than spend,you agree to add another dollar to the pot,"says Cathy Pareto,expert in money planning.
Explain your values.Values and money are deeply intertwined(纠缠在一起),says Eilleen Gallo,co-author of The Financially Intelligent Parent.When your child demands that you buy something,explain why you really don't want to buy it.“You might say,‘I'd rather save that money for your education,'”advises Gallo.Every time you spend or don't spend money,you have a chance to share your values.
(1)The writer gives some basics to help_____in a proper way.
A.parents teach their children how to deal with money
B.children follow their parents' instructions
C.children manage their money
D.parents save their money
(2)The writer thinks that,if a child wants to buy something,his parents should______.
A.give him some regular pocket money
B.encourage him to put money away for it
C.explain to him the importance of investment
D.tell him to save some money by using a credit card
(3)What leads the writer to write this article?
A.Parents want to know how to educate their children.
B.He wants to share his good ideas about money matters.
C.He thinks money management the most important for children.
D.Parents care little about their children's management of money.

【答案】
(1)A
(2)B
(3)D
【解析】本文是一篇说明文,讲述了教育孩子如何处理金钱方面的问题。
(1)考查细节理解。根据第一段中的“but when it comes to money,we often have little to say.As a result,our children may grow up with clean hands and good manners,but without any idea how to manage their money.” 但说到钱,我们往往没有什么要说的。因此,我们的孩子可能会以干净的双手和礼貌长大,但不知道如何管理他们的钱。说明这些建议都是关于教育孩子如何处理金钱方面的问题的,根据题意,故选A。
(2)考查细节理解。根据倒数第三段中的“Rather than paying the cash,give him some regular pocket money and explain that by putting aside,say,$15 each week,he will be able to buy it for himself in only ten weeks.”给他一些零钱而不是支付现金并解释通过每周存15美元,通过10周他就可以自己买自行车。可推知当孩子想要买东西时,父母应鼓励孩子存钱。put away固定短语,“储存”。根据题意,故选B。
(3)考查推理判断。根据第一段中的“As a result,our children may grow up with clean hands and good manners,but without any idea how to manage their money.Here are some basics that will help guide them their entire lives:”结果,我们的孩子可能有干净的双手,好的礼貌。但是不知道如何管理他们的钱。下面是一些有助于指导他们整个生活的基础知识。可知文章主要讲述了教育孩子如何处理金钱方面的问题。根据题意,故选D。

【题目】根据短文理解,选择正确答案。
Those who are used to looking through thousands of books in big bookstores may find Japan's Morioka Shoten a little strange. That's because this tiny bookstore that is located in Ginza, Tokyo sells only a single book at a time.
Opened in May 2015, Morioka Shoten is the brainchild of Yoshiyuki Morioka. The experienced bookseller began his career as a bookstore clerk in Tokyo's Kanda district before branching out to open his own store. It was here while organizing book readings that he realized that customers usually came into the store with one title in mind. Morioka began to wonder if a store could exist by selling many copies of just one single book. In November 2014, he partnered with his two friends, to establish a unique bookstore with the idea of “A Single Room, A Single Book.”
Like its offering, the bookstore is simple. The selections that are picked by Morioka change weekly and vary widely to attract customers with different interests. Recent choices include The True Deceiver, an award-winning Swedish novel by Tove Jansson, Hans Christian Andersen's Fairy Tales, and a collection of artist Karl Blossfeldt's photography of plants. Morioka has also chosen books written by famous Japanese authors Mimei Ogawa and Akito Akagi.
To highlight his only offering, Morioka often uses clever methods. For example,when selling a book about flowers, he decorated his shop with the ones that had been mentioned in the book. He also encourages authors to hold talks and discussions so they can connect with customers. Morioka says his goal is for the customers to experience being inside a book, not just a bookstore!
Risky as the idea might seem, things appear to be going well. Morioka says he has sold over 2,100 books since he opened it. Things can get better considering that his bookstore is becoming increasingly popular not just among the locals but also visitors from other countries.
(1)What inspired Morioka to open such a bookstore?
A.A Swedish novel
B.His present partner
C.A bookstore clerk
D.His working experience
(2)Why is Morioka Shoten unique?
A.It is popular with foreigners.
B.It sells books of different topics.
C.It is decorated with colorful flowers.
D.It sells various copies of a book in a week.
(3)Why does Morioka encourage authors to hold talks?
A.To introduce his bookstore.
B.To advocate his philosophy.
C.To make books better understood.
D.To help readers connect with each other.
(4)What's the author's opinion about the bookstore's future?
A.Risky
B.Optimistic
C.Unpredictable
D.Hopeless

【题目】根据短文理解,选择正确答案。
A drunken burglar(盗贼) in the Orrell Park area of Liverpool, ended up leaping out of a window after a 10-year-old girl asked him to prove he was a superhero.
The drunken thief who pretended he was Superman to stop a child raising the alarm has been caught after he leapt from the apartment building in his pants to make the girl convinced.
Thief Ethan Adamson, 25, told police that he had broken into a fifth-floor flat after a drinking session, believing it was empty.

Police later found him on the roof in just his yellow pants, covered in cuts and bruises after a baffled neighbor heard his cries of pain.
He now faces seven years behind bars for burglary.
Police spokesman Frank Amado said, “He was in quite a serious state and couldn't move until we got up there using ladders. He was treated for his injuries and we got him some fresh clothes, before taking him to hospital where he is being kept under guard until he is well enough to be arrested.”

【题目】阅读理解A Blessed Teacher
I remembered Ricky came back to see me ten years after he was in my class. He told me how I had inadvertently(不经意地) changed his life.
Ricky often gazed out the window during one of my ninth-grade history classes early in my teaching career. He was quiet, and his good grades and mild manner were why I did not move him away from the seat by the window.
One day, I leaned over his shoulder and quietly asked, “What are you looking at? You gaze out of this window during every class.”
He said, “I am looking at the band.”
According to Ricky, I said, “If you like the band so much that you have to look at them during this class every day, I want you to go down to Mr. Overby (the band teacher) and tell him that I sent you. Tell him that you want to be in the band. Now turn around and finish working before the bell rings.”
The next day Ricky went to Mr. Overby and told him I had sent him and he wanted to be in the band. He added that he did not know how to play any instrument.
When Ricky visited me ten years later, he thanked me for telling him to go to Mr. Over by because he fell in love with music and discovered his musical talent that had not been tapped. His musical talent resulted in him getting a scholarship to college and earning a degree that now allowed him to provide for his family. Most of all, music had brought great pleasure and satisfaction to his life.
After Ricky thanked me, I pointed out that he did all of the hard work it took to become the wonderfully talented person that he was. I did not make him walk downstairs to join the band, practice his instrument, and get the good grades that led to his college scholarship.
Ricky responded that I could have yelled at him for looking out the window. Instead, I gave him an alternative that changed his whole life.
After he left, I thought about his words. I realized that I was teaching children with every word I said, every action I took, and with every decision I made. Ricky's story raised my teaching bar. Most of all, I have never forgotten the lesson Ricky taught me, a blessed teacher.
(1)Which of the following words can best describe the author?
A.Curious and helpful.
B.Independent and creative.
C.Tolerant and responsible.
D.Courageous and professional.
(2)What did the author do when he found Ricky gazed out?

【题目】根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。How to teach a child to respect
As a child grows out of being an infant and begins to notice and react to the world around him, you may find yourself wondering how you possibly impart (传授) all of the things that he needs to become a responsible, respectful adult. A child who learns to respect all he meets not only receives respect from others, but also learns to respect himself as well. Here are some instructions.
Show your child respect. This is perhaps the best way to teach your child how to respect others. Listen to your child by giving him your full attention and he will learn to listen to you, understanding how important this is in communication.
The more you say “please” and “thank you” to your child, the more likely he will learn to use them with you and others. Politeness then becomes a normal part of any conversation.
Agree to disagree. Explain your decision so that he will understand your reasoning and expect respectful responses. Disagreeing with you doesn't equate to disobedience (违抗).
Control your impulse (冲动) to overact. When a situation arises between you and your child that requires calmness, keep in mind that you are supposed to be modeling correct behaviour.
Praise, praise, praise! So much is focused on what a child does wrong and how to correct it that the accomplishments are not celebrated enough.
A. Teach manners by using polite requests and responses.
B. Try to remember that a child won't always agree with you.
C. Respect is necessary for a meaningful and successful life.
D. If he sees you lose your temper, he is more likely to respond that way in future.
E. A child may act like he pleases, but will respect being given limits.
F. When you see your child exhibit respectful behaviour, make sure he knows just how proud you are of him.
G. Setting a good example is the best way to start a child on the path to respect.

【题目】根据短文内容,从短文后的A—G选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Many of us deal with the rush every morning in preparation for work or school, but it doesn't have to be this way. With a little time management, these steps can help you cut down on your morning stress.
Create an evening preparation routine
These simple tasks will take you less than 30 minutes to complete each evening and will save you a huge headache every morning.
Get a good night's sleep
Make sure you go to bed at a reasonable hour to allow enough time for a healthy night's sleep. Most people require between seven and eight hours' sleep each night. If needed, set a bedtime reminder alarm on your alarm clock.
Wake up 30 minutes earlier
An extra 30 minutes in the morning will make a difference. As long as you get to bed on time, waking up 30 minutes earlier should seem natural after just a few days.
Plan a realistic day
Writing things down means you don't have to worry about forgetting to do them. Write down anything that cannot be put off to following day.

Getting up to face a new day is far more satisfying when you have something to look forward to. Make sure you manage your time better so that you have time to do something you love on a daily basis.
A.Morning stress is very common.
B.Schedule something you love daily.
C.Never fill your mind with unnecessary worries.
D.Make a summary of what you did in the daytime.
E.Use this time to think, shower and eat breakfast.
F.Iron your clothes, locate your keys, plan a nutritious breakfast, etc.
G.Always keep the temperature in your bedroom comfortably cool.

【题目】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。
Standing in front of the “Chilkoot Trailhead” sign for 15 minutes, I didn't take one step. I was afraid of bears. That's what was keeping me from walking the trail alone. I had hiked through black-bear country back home in Colorado, but now I was in Alaska, home to the fierce brown grizzly bear.
Fortunately, a friendly couple arrived and asked me to take their picture. We started talking and soon were walking the trail together. I was relieved. Ron and Carol were from Alaska and they taught me how to stay safe in bear country.
I had finally started my hike along the famous Chilkoot Trail, where more than 115 years ago, thousands of gold miners had walked. I was writing a book about the Klondike Gold Rush, and I wanted to follow in the footsteps of the miners to know what it was really like.
Ron, Carol, and I walked through the forest. As I was looking around at the beautiful scenery in the forest, I tripped (绊倒) over a big tree root and injured my ankle (脚踝). Fortunately, my ankle felt better in the morning, and we followed the trail. We went to bed early that night because the following day would be the toughest hike of all.
At dawn, we started hiking up the steep (陡峭的), green valley. Icy glaciers covered the mountains above. Soon we were as high as the clouds and could see only 20 feet in front of us. Finally, we reached the top of the Chilkoot pass and saw a Canadian flag moving in the heavy wind. Hours later, we arrived at our campground.
The following morning, my ankle was feeling fine, and my fear of bears had mostly disappeared. I said good-bye to Ron and Carol and walked alone for the next two days. Without seeing any bears the entire trip, I finally arrived at Bennett Lake. I rode the old train down to the town of Skagway and checked into my hotel.
While relaxing in my comfortable bed in the hotel, I thought of the miners from the Klondike Gold Rush. When the miners reached Bennett Lake, they had to cut down trees, build boats, and travel 500 miles down dangerous rivers and lakes. Then, when they finally reached the goldfields, they had to start digging.
(1)Why did the author stand in front of the “Chilkoot Trailhead” sign for 15 minutes?
A.To wait for Ron and Carol.
B.Because he felt nervous.
C.Because he met a black bear.
D.To take photos of the beautiful scenery.
(2)The author hiked along the Chilkoot Trail to ________.
A.find inspiration for his writing
B.search Alaska for bears
C.enjoy the beauty of nature
D.look for gold
(3)When crossing the Chilkoot Trail, the author ________.
A.got help from two local miners
B.once tried to take a boat trip
C.hurt himself by accident
D.was almost killed by a brown bear
(4)What kind of feeling did the author mainly show in the last paragraph?
A.Joy.
B.Pity.
C.Worry.
D.Doubt.
