    15．For this little boy，it was the coldest winter．In the winter，his father had an accident and lost a leg．The family lost their only source of income （收入）．From then on，his father became a defferent person．When the boy behaved badly，the father flied into a rage （大发雷霆）．
    One night，the boy wandered alone in the street．He passed a lovely small shop，which was so charming that he couldn't turn his eyes away from it．He stared at some fine packages of coffee quietly．An idea came into his mind．He knew his father loved coffee and he also knew stealing was not good，but all he could think of was his father's smile．He soon put a package of coffee into his jacket and ran back home．He gave the coffee to his father，who gave him a smile that the boy had missed for a long time．Unfortunately，before his father could tasted the coffee，the shopkeeper broke in and caught the boy．He got a beating by his father again．
    Years later，he became a successful businessman．One day，his mother called and said his father wanted to see him．Busy negotiating （谈判） with a client，he refused．Weeks later，he heard the sad news that his father had passed away．When he went through the relics （遗物），he found a box．Inside the box was the package of coffee that he had stolen from the shop．On the cover was his father's handwriting：The gift from my son．There was also a letter，"Dear son，I'm a failure as a father，but I also have a dream---to own a coffee shop where I can make cups of coffee for you．I'm sorry I didn't make it．"
    Sadness suddenly crowded in on him．He regretted not seeing his father for the last time，and decided to achieve his father's dream．After quitting his own job，he started a coffee business．
    The coffee business now is a huge success，and the little boy is Howard Schultz---the owner of Coffee King Starbucks．
    32．What did the father feel when his son gave him the coffee？A
    A．Happy
    B．Angry
    C．Unknown
    D．Disappointed．
    33．Why didn't the son want to see his father when his mother called him？B
    A．Because he didn't want to see．
    B．Because he was busy with his business．
    C．Because he didn't know his father's idea．
    D．Because he knew his father didn't like him．
    34．The underlined words"passed away"probably meansD．
    A．went out
    B．went home
    C．stayed in hospital
    D．died
    35．Which of the following can be the best title of this article？C
    A．The relation between a father and his son
    B．How to get on with your father
    C．A boy and his coffee shop

    分析 本文讲述了星巴克的主人霍华德舒尔茨，小时候他为出了意外事故的父亲偷了一袋咖啡而受到责罚．从他父亲去世后留下的遗书里，他知道父亲想为他开一家咖啡店．为了实现父亲的梦想，他建立了星巴克．

    解答 32-35 ABDC
    32．答案 A 细节理解题．根据第二段第七句"He gave the coffee to his father，who gave him a smile that the boy had missed for a long time．"可知"爸爸收到咖啡后给了小男孩一个大大的微笑"，可推测爸爸收到咖啡时是开心的．故正确答案为A．
    33．答案 B 细节理解题 根据第三段 Busy negotiating （谈判） with a client，he refused．可知，他拒绝的原因是忙于与客户谈判，故答案为B
    34．答案 D 词义猜测题 根据When he went through the relics （遗物），he found a box．可知，他的爸爸去世了，pass away 是die的委婉表达，故答案为D
    35．答案 C主旨大意题．本文讲述了一个小男孩和爸爸之间有关咖啡的故事，第一、二段讲了小男孩小时候知道爸爸喜欢喝咖啡，为爸爸偷咖啡，被爸爸打的故事．第三、四、五段讲了小男孩长大后，父亲死后，他知道爸爸很想开一家咖啡店，为完成父亲的遗愿，他成功创办星巴克的故事．在故事中饱含父子深情，故事情节发展紧紧围绕咖啡，主要讲了"男孩和他的咖啡厅"，故C项正确．A项，"父亲和儿子之间的关系"，本文并没有讨论父子之间的关系，只是讲述了父子之间发生的事情．故A项错误．
    B项，"怎样和爸爸相处"，本文并没有提到儿子和爸爸之间的相处方式，故B项错误．D项，"怎样经营咖啡店"，本文并未提及．故D项错误．故正确答案为C．

    点评 做阅读时经常犯错的主要原因是，仅凭读过文章后残留在脑海中的一丝印象来勾选答案，这样便很容易掉入出题人故意设布下的题目陷阱．所谓阅读理解，对于题目的理解一定要忠实于原文，因此，每一道题都应该与原文作全面的对比与核查，再得出答案．也就是说，阅读理解的每一道题目，在原文都应该有明确的出处，我们把这一出处叫做原文相关句，（1）排除与原文相关句主题不一致的选项（2）排除与原文相关句态度相反的选项  （3）排除用于过于极端或负面的选项（4）注意结合文章主旨和主题去排除．

    6．When a big boat，like a cruise ship，goes through the ocean，it often creates waves．This happens when the large engines on the back of the cruise ship cause the water on the ocean's surface move up and down violently．These waves move out from the boat in both directions．If you are captaining a smaller boat，you'd better steer clear of a ship's wake，so that your boat is not surfing on the waves，causing it to overturn
    A wave is a pattern of motion．When you look at a wave，it may appear as simply water moving across the surface of the ocean．In fact，this is false．The water is actually not moving in the same direction as the wave．While the wave itself--the pattern of motion-is moving across the surface of the ocean，the water is actually moving in a circular motion，which brings the water molecules back to their original position．The water merely gives the appearance of moving forward．
    If this is confusing，think of the kind of wave you do at a baseball stadium．Viewed from a distance，the wave is clearly moving across the stadium．But the thing that makes up the wave-the people-are not moving across the stadium，they're just moving up and down in their seats．This is just like the water in an ocean wave．A lot of water is moving up and down，which gives water the appearance of moving along with the wave．
    Surfers pay a lot of attention to waves．If you're not in an area where the waves are suitable for surfing，then you can't surf．Usually，surfers gather in areas known for big waves-waves that rise high off the ocean's surface．If the wave is bigger，then the surfer is often able to surf for longer distances and perform more tricks．The height of a wave is known as its amplitude．If you could make a wave freeze，then you could measure the wave's amplitude by running a tape measure from the ocean's surface to the very peak of the wave．
    All waves can be measured using amplitude and wavelength．While the waves created by a boat have very small amplitude-sometimes as small as a few centimeters-the wavelength can be very short，as lots of waves are being generated．By contrast，a tsunami has very high amplitude，sometimes more than 100feet，but a relatively long wavelength，as it's a high wave．
    Waves generated in the same way can have great differences in amplitude and wavelength．For example，think back to the cruise ship．While each ship creates waves caused by the movement of the boat，the properties of each of the waves may be very different．For example，a larger cruise ship，with powerful engines，may create a wave that has high amplitude and a short wavelength．However，if the ship's engines slow down，they may then start creating less powerful waves at a slower rate．This would cause the waves'amplitude to decrease，but its wavelength to increase．

    74．What does the phrase"steer clear of a cruise ship's wake"in the 1st paragraph meanC？
    A．keep awake while steering a ship
    B．get a clear view of what is ahead
    C．keep away from the cruise ship
    D．follow the cruise ship very closely
    75．The author gives an example of wave people do in the stadium in order toD．
    A．illustrate how excited people are in a basketball stadium
    B．clear the confusion over measuring the wave's amplitude
    C．demonstrate how to make waves in a basketball stadium
    D．explain why the water appears to move along the waves
    76．The last paragraph gives us the impression thatB．
    A．the wave's amplitude may vary，but its wavelength remain the same
    B．the move powerful the ships engines are，the higher the waves they generate
    C．the amplitude of a wave depends on the direction the water moves forward
    D．measuring the amplitude and wavelength of waves is not quite easy
    77．What is this passage mainly aboutA？
    A．How waves are created and measured．
    B．What makes the sea water move forwards．
    C．Why people create waves in the stadium．
    D．How to steer a cruise ship in the rough sea．

    Quite often，educators tell families of children who are learning English as a second language to speak only English，and not their native language，at home．Although these educators may have good（41）F，their advice to families is misguided，and it arises from misunderstandings about the process of language （42）G．Educators may fear that children hearing two languages will become （43）I confused and thus their language development will be （44）B．Children are capable of learning more than one language，whether simultaneously （同时地） or sequentially （依次地）．In fact，most children outside of the United States are expected to become bilingual or even，in many cases，multilingual．Globally，knowing more than one language is viewed as an asset （资产） and even a （45）K in many areas．

    7．Dear David，
    I'm glad you would like to share your feelings with me．It's hardly surprising that your feelings of not being"grown up"have come on strongly at this point in your life，just before you're about to become a father．You are asking：will I make a good father？How will I cope？Should I have brought another little person into the world？Can I provide for it？Heeelp!I think nearly every sensitive about-to-be-parent must have these occasional feelings of self-doubt and inadequacy （不适） before the birth and it would be most unusual if you didn't share them．
    It's difficult，honestly，to feel grown-up unless you have something less grown-up to relate to．A hen-pecked （惧内的） boss may feel like a seven-year-old when he's at home．But as he walks through the office door，and knows he's going to be surrounded by staff looking to him for advice，he grows into a fully mature man．And I think it's a mistake to imagine that we all feel，as we age，a kind of progression of states，from the baby to the adult．Most people feel，on Tuesday，about three years old，and on a Wednesday，around 80．I remember feeling very grown-up at eight，a time when I was weighed down with responsibility．These days，much older，I can，in the company of people I feel at ease with，feel like a young girl．
    There's a common remark that"all men are little boys"，but it's not true．It's more true that men often behave like little boys．But nearly all people，at some moments in their lives，are capable of great maturity．
    Once your baby arrives，you'll soon feel less childlike，or rather，less often．When your child tries to put its fingers into the electric plug，the adult in you will rise up to prevent it．You'll see you have very little in common with a needy child，particularly if it's looking to you for comfort and support．
    Comfort yourself，David，with two truths．One is that your friends laugh when they talk about this subject because they，like you，feel frightened．And remember that people who haven't grown up don't go around talking about the fact that they don't feel grown-up．
    Hope my advice will be helpful and good luck to you and your little one．
    Sincerely Yours，
    Miss Advice
    43．According to the passage，Miss Advice thinks David's self-doubtB
    A．valuable     B．natural          C．unusual      D．bearable
    44．From Paragraph 2，we can learn that people's sense of maturityC
    A．will increase with age
    B．is obviously seen at home
    C．changes with different situations
    D．becomes stronger with familiar people
    45．Miss Advice holds thatC．
    A．all men behave like little boys
    B．people tend to laugh at the subject
    C．men with a baby feel more grown-up
    D．people enjoy talking about their immaturity
    46．Miss Advice wrote the letter toB．
    A．teach people how to grow up
    B．offer suggestions to a future father
    C．encourage people to be responsible

    5．Dear Mom，Clear My Calendar
    September is around the corner，and some of us are already complaining about summer's end．But parents have a special reason to do so．The end of summer means the start of school．And these days，planning a young child's schedule is a big challenge．The challenge is no longer finding activities to fill a child's day； it is saying no to the hundreds of options available．Our mailbox is filled with brochures urging us to sign our kids up for classes from cooking to martial arts（武术）．
    Educators are themselves discouraged by the number of special classes that many children attend．In the name of"enrichment，"three-year-olds not only go to preschool in the morning but study French or gymnastics after lunch．One teacher tells of a four-year-old asking for help in the toilet before hurrying off to tennis．Another teacher says that children sometimes hold on to her at pickup time．What happened to unstructured time？
    A generous explanation is that we enjoy giving children opportunities we never had．The truth however is that many parents have doubts about how much time they spend away from their families．And one way to reduce this guilt is to believe that time spent in these classes is somehow more beneficial to children than the time we know we should be giving them ourselves．
    David Elkind，an expert on children，suggests that the 1960s gave birth to the belief that earlier is better．Parents hope that early music lessons，for example will build a child's confidence．The truth，however，is that any time children are asked to do too much，too soon，they are at greater risk for feelings of failure．
    A child's time does not have to be planned to be meaningful．Remember the lazy days of summer？Some children sleep late and play with the kids across the street until it's time to come home for dinner．However，with the majority of mothers working，fewer children enjoy that idle （空闲的） time now．
    Come September，children across the country will finish a full day of kindergarten，only to attend an after-school program until 6P．M．，when a working mom or dad comes to take them home．That's too much for a five-year old．Finances，of course，do limit some parents．But let's be honest with ourselves-our own busy schedules，whatever they involve，are no excuse for burdening a young child's．

    67．The author holds that it's a challenge to plan a schedule for a child mainly becauseC．
    A．a child's schedule is too complex
    B．activities suitable for kids are limited
    C．parents are stuck in numerous choices
    D．children always say no to parents'advice
    68．What the two teachers say in Paragraph 2implies thatC．
    A．children love to stay at school
    B．they are popular with children
    C．children dislike after-school classes
    D．after-school classes are of poor quality
    69．According to the author，what is the real reason for parents to send their children to after-school classes？D
    A．Parents want to make up for their own regrets．
    B．After-school classes develop children's potential．
    C．Parents have doubt about their own ability to guide children．
    D．After-school classes give parents an excuse for being absent．
    70．Which of the following will the author probably agree with？C
    A．For children's benefits，the earlier the better．
    B．Children's spare time should be carefully designed．
    C．Idle time for children is becoming a thing of the past．
    D．Parents should be forgiven if they have a good reason．．
