【解析】
这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了父母应该教孩子认识钱并正确花钱购物。
【1】根据后一句“so you may start talking about money when your child shows an interest in buying things, candy or toys, for example”可知,所以,当你的孩子对买东西、糖果或玩具表现出兴趣时,你可以开始谈论钱。G项“教孩子关于钱的最好时机是他表现出兴趣”与下文紧密衔接,G项中的“when he shows an interest”与后面的“when your child shows an interest”相呼应,符合语境。故选G项。
【2】根据前一句“If he wants to have a toy, give him the money and let him hand the money to the cashier.”可知,如果他想要一个玩具,把钱给他,让他把钱交给收银员。F项“离开玩具店后跟你的孩子说说用钱怎么买东西”与上文紧密衔接,F项中的“the toy store”与前面的“a toy”“the cashier”相呼应,符合语境。故选F项。
【3】根据后两句“If you must say no to a child’s request to spend money, explain, “You have enough toy trucks for now.” Or, if the request is for many different things, say. “You have to make a choice between this toy and that toy.””可知,如果你一定要拒绝孩子花钱的要求,解释一下,“你现在有足够的玩具卡车了”或者,如果这个要求是为了很多不同的事情,说,“你得在这个玩具和那个玩具之间做出选择”。D项“告诉你自己什么东西对你来说最重要”与下文紧密衔接,符合语境。故选D项。
【4】空格处是该段的小标题。根据该段第三句“You can show your child how to make choices between different brands of a product so that you can save money.”可知,你可以教你的孩子如何在不同品牌的产品之间做出选择,这样你就可以省钱了。A项“明智的选择”概括了最后一段的中心内容,适合做该段的小标题。故选A项。
【5】根据后一句“If he chooses the cheaper brand, allow him to make another purchase with the money saved.”可知,如果他选择更便宜的品牌,允许他用省下来的钱再买一个商品。C项“允许孩子为什么他能或不能拥有某些东西”与下文紧密衔接,C项中的“Permit the child”与后面的“allow him”相呼应,符合语境。故选C项。

【题目】 Old Mrs. Lynn was working in the cottage, hanging the washed clothes on the line. What she wasn’t aware was that some children were hiding in a nearby tree watching her every move. They were sure that she was a witch and wanted to find the evidence.
They watched nervously as she took a broomstick to sweep the dirt from her stone steps. But much to their disappointment, she didn’t get on the broomstick and fly off. The old lady only looked up when her hen began to make sounds loudly — signaling that she had laid an egg in the nest on the top of the haystack. (干草堆).
The old lady put aside her broomstick and walked to the haystack, followed by Michael, a black cat she had rescued from a fox trap. With only three legs, it was hard for Michael to keep up with his mistress. The cat was proof for the children that only a witch would own a black cat with three legs! Accidentally, she tripped and crashed to the ground. The children were in horror.
“Should we go and help her?” asked Mia.
“What if it’s a trick?” replied Patrick. “She probably knows we’re here. Witches know things like that!”
After thinking for a while, Julia said, “Anyway, we should go and check whether she is all right.”
Approaching prudently, they could see a wound on the old lady’s forehead. She had knocked her head on a stone and was unconscious.
“Go and get Dad,” Mia yelled to her brothers. “Tell him about the accident.”
Later, in the hospital, the old lady smiled her thanks. “I was so lucky that you lovely children happened to be passing when I fell. I must have yelled quite loudly.” The children exchanged guilty glances, but were very pleased that she was not a witch after all!
【1】Mrs. Lynn stopped sweeping when ________.
A.her doorstep became very clean
B.she heard the hen making sounds loudly
C.she noticed the children in the tree
D.her cat Michael managed to get her attention
【2】Why was Patrick not willing to help Mrs. Lynn when she fell?
A.He thought that she could be cheating them.
B.He was afraid of the three-legged black cat.
C.He did not think that she was hurt in the fall.
D.He knew he and the others shouldn’t have been in her tree.
【3】Which of the definitions is closest in meaning to the underlined word “prudently” ?
A.Slowly.B.Hurriedly.
C.Carefully.D.Quietly.
【4】What is the main idea of the story?
A.Constant dropping wears away a stone.
B.Never judge a book by its cover.
C.A friend in need is a friend indeed.
D.A good medicine tastes bitter.

【题目】Wanna soften the blow of a hangover?
A hangover refers to the headache and sick feeling that you have the day after drinking too much alcohol. If you are looking for something to nurse your hangover, you will find the following right ideas.
1. ASIAN PEAR JUICE
Have some extra Asian pears at home? Run them through your juicer before your next night out. According to researchers at Australia’s Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organization, just 7.4 ounces of Asian pear juice is enough to soften the blow of a hangover. The scientists say that the juice interacts with enzymes that break down alcohol, speeding up your metabolism and leaving less surplus alcohol for your body to absorb. There’s just one catch: The juice must be consumed before you drink anything else in order to be effective.
2. MUSIC
Anyone who’s ever suffered through a massive hangover knows that sound is the enemy. But while your roommate’s 9 a.m. tap dancing practice might exacerbate (加剧) your symptoms, music may have the opposite effect. Research has shown that listening to music can provide relief to migraines, which are similar to hangover headaches. As long as the music is pleasant and suits your taste, it should help to drown out the chorus of pain laying in your mind. Head sensitivity isn’t the only symptom music helps with. According to researchers at the University of Edinburgh, listening to your favorite music also eases pain.
3. EGGS
The best way to tackle a hangover with food is to eat while you drink. Chowing down after the damage has already been done may distract you from your turmoil for a short while, but it won’t soothe your physical symptoms. There are a few exceptions: Eggs, for example, have hangover-fighting potential thanks to a special ingredient. The food is packed with cysteine, an amino acid that breaks down the drinking byproduct acetaldehyde (乙醛). So whether you prefer to enjoy brunch out or at home, make sure your meal includes eggs in some form.
【1】According to the passage, the author may agree with the following EXCEPT______.
A.Asian pear juice can help soften the blow of a hangover if you drink it before anything else.
B.Your roommate can make you suffer less from a hangover by practising tap dancing at 9.
C.Eggs are said to contain a special ingredient that may soothe the symptoms of a hangover.
D.Enjoying your favorite piece of music is an efficient way to fight the pain of a hangover.
【2】The passage is most probably taken from ______.
A.a textbookB.a science fiction
C.a health magazineD.an advertisement

【题目】 Growing up, Deka Ismail says she let labels define what she could be. “I was a black girl, from a refugee (难民) family,” Deka said. “It was as if I was only allowed to explore in this predetermined box.”
After a high school chemistry class inspired her to think about a career in science and gave her confidence in the field, Deka learned to live outside labels and began making big plans for her future. Now she is about to begin her freshman year at the University of California, planning to become a professor.
Born and raised in San Diego’s City Heights neighbourhood, Deka is the daughter of a Somali refugee couple. While some might say Deka’s success happened in spite of her background, she would say differently, that her experiences shaped her and inspired her to be the driven, young scientist that she is today.
When Deka was eight years old, her mother got a job by studying hard back in school in order to support the whole family. That made Deka realize that education could make a difference to one’s life. She spent a lot of time in the library reading books, and didn’t do many of the things her peers did, like partying or having romantic relationships.
“I always felt like I had to be the perfect girl for my family,” Deka said. “You have to not even do your best but two times better than everyone else. I felt like the whole world was waiting for me to mess up.”
Deka’s efforts paid off. The summer before her senior year of high school, she was accepted to the American Chemical Society Project SEED Programme. “She brought both enthusiasm and focus,” Botham, a researcher at this research institute, recalled. “She arrived every day ready to work, ready to learn and ready to tackle new challenges regardless of whether or not she had done anything similar.”
When asked what advice she would give to others like her, Deka warned them not to underestimate themselves. “Don’t tell yourself that scholarship is too big or this programme is too competitive or I’ll never get into this school, ” she said. “I was not sure whether I could make it until I started seeing the acceptance letters rolling in.”
【1】From the passage, we can learn that ______.
A.Deka was adopted by a refugee family
B.Deka spent a lot of time going to parties
C.Deka became a professor after graduation
D.Deka’s experiences drove her to work hard
【2】Deka realized the importance of education ______.
A.from her mother’s experienceB.after her chemistry class
C.by reading books in the libraryD.through working at the institute
【3】According to the last paragraph, Deka advised that students be ______.
A.patientB.confident
C.ambitiousD.generous
【4】What does the story intend to tell us?
A.Life is not all roses.
B.Practice makes perfect.
C.Well begun is half done.
D.Hard work leads to success.

【题目】 Craig Blackburn, a father and car fan, built a Batmobile for his son’s hope for using the vehicle to brighten the lives of sick children. And now he hopes to use it for more than just his son's hope after seeing the children's reaction to the Batmobile.
Based on the number of failures he had seen in car groups, he estimated that only about one in 50 attempted constructions was actually finished and he realized what an incredible opportunity he had.
Mr. Blackburn started the project at the beginning of 2018 after hearing a friend in the US was doing the same thing. It started with importing an outer shell overseas, before picking brains of a friend who had a background as a worker in a car factory to gain knowledge of how to build the car. With the help of his friend, Mr. Blackburn built the Batmobile in 18 months with the cost reaching six figures.
Mr. Blackburn hoped to add a flamethrower(喷火器) onto the back of the vehicle and said he had thought about building the more recent Batman Tumbler from the series film Dark Knight. Though Mr. Blackburn encountered plenty of difficulties to get over during the construction, in September 2019, the car made its first show at the Carnival of Flowers in Toowoomba, before being used by Blackburn's son for his hope.
“It was great. It was so good to see the kids' and adults' excitement at seeing the Batmobile.” Mr. Blackburn said. As a result, the car lovers hope to make the car work on the roads as soon as possible, so he can visit sick children and take them out with his son.
【1】What is Craig Blackburn's initial purpose of making the Batmobile?
A.To realize his son's dream.
B.To donate it to sick children.
C.To pay his respects to the film Dark Knight.
D.To show off at the Carnival of Flowers in Toowoomba.
【2】How did Blackburn feel about the car-making at first?
A.Hopeful.
B.Uncertain.
C.Impossible.
D.Confused.
【3】How did Blackburn's friend help him?
A.By offering him financial support.
B.By making an outer shell for him.
C.By sharing the knowledge of building cars.
D.By telling him the backgroud of the car factory.
【4】What is the car lovers' expectation of the Batmobile?
A.It can be displayed around the world.
B.It will be driven soon on the roads.
C.It can change the lives of sick children.
D.It will appear in the next film about Batman.
