题目列表(包括答案和解析)

There seems never to have been a civilization(文明) without toys, but when and how they developed is unknown. They probably came about just to give children something to do.

In the ancient world, as is today, most boys play with some kinds of toys and most girls with another. In societies where social roles are strictly determined, boys pattern their play after the activities of their fathers and girls after the tasks of their mothers. This is true because boys and girls are being prepared, even in play, to step into the roles and responsibilities of the adult world.

What is remarkable about the history of toys is not so much how they changed over the centuries but how much they have remained the same. It is the universality of toys about their development in all parts of the world and their continuing to the present that is amazing. In Egypt, the Americas, China, Japan and among the Arctic peoples, generally the same kinds of toys appeared. Nearly every civilization had dolls, little weapons, toy soldiers, tiny animals and vehicles.

Because toys can be generally regarded as a kind of art form, they have not been subject to (服从于) technological progress that characterizes inventions for adult use. The progress from the wheel to the oxcart to the automobile is a direct line of advancement. The progress from a rattle (拨浪鼓) used by a baby in 3,000 BC to one used by an infant today, however, is not characterized by inventiveness. Each rattle is the product of the artistic tastes of the times and subject to the limitations of materials then ready for use. (words: 285 ; time : 5ms)

1. The reason why the toys most boys play with are different from those that girls play with is that ________ .

A. their social roles are strictly determined

B. most boys would like to follow their fathers' jobs

C. boys like to play with their fathers while girls with their mothers

D. they like challenging activities.

2. "The universality of toys" lies in the fact that ________ .

A. technological advances have greatly improved the making of toys

B. the improvement of techniques in making toys depends on the efforts of universities

C. the exploration of the universe has led to the creation of new kinds of toys

D. the basic characteristics of toys are the same all over the world

3. Regarded as a kind of art form, toys ________.

A. follow a direct line of development

B. also greatly interest adults

C. are not characterized by progress in technology

D. show the pace of social progress

(C)篇

1. A。由原文第二段第二句可知。

2. D。根据文章第三段第一句和第三句可知,玩具的基本的特征变化不大。

3. C。由文章最后一段第一句可知,玩具作为一种艺术形式,不因科技变化而变化。

Finding summer jobs for teenagers has not always been easy, but now you no longer have to worry about what your kid can do to earn their own money. Recently I found some different sites online that offer information about what kids can do. Below is some of that information, along with questions to think about to help you come up with your own ideas.
Ideas for summer work: 
● Parks and Recreation Programs.
● Babysitting (当临时保姆) during the day of school.
● Working part-time at a day care for the summer.
● Car washing.
● Working at local vegetable stands.
The easiest way for you to find ways for your child to make money is to think about others’ inconveniences (不方便). Think of things you need done, or would like to have done, and what you would consider paying for these things to get done. Once you have some ideas, you can sit down with your child and talk to them about what they would be interested in doing. Then once you have an idea of what they want to do you can help them come up with fair prices.
Preferably you would want to only have your child working with people you know and trust, or in the least bit you could have your child pick a partner. That way with each of them carrying cell phones, even those without service can call 911, they will be much safer.

阅读以下段落,从选项中挑出符合各段大意的选项,第三段段意已给出。注意其中有一项是多余的。
    1. I love bridges! Walking across a large river, a busy road or over a railway line is very exciting for me.
Sometimes, if the bridge is very high, I feel like I'm flying. If the bridge is very long, I think there may be a
problem arriving at the other side. If the bridge is very narrow, I think it may break! When I travel I like to
cross bridges. In the USA I crossed the Golden Gate, in Australia I crossed the Sydney Harbour Bridge and
when I was in Thailand I crossed the Friendship Bridge to Laos.
    2. Luckily I live in London and there are many bridges here. I live near Chelsea Bridge. So you can imagine
how excited I was to hear that there was a new bridge to celebrate the millennium (太平盛世). A new bridge
in London! The first new pedestrian bridge! A bridge just for people, so no cars, trains or pollution. 
     (Excitement about a new bridge) Every weekend I went to see the building of the bridge. It was great
to see it changing and growing. Then at last it was finished and it looked beautiful. It runs from St Paul's
Cathedral to Southwark, it is long and wide. 
     3. I was really happy that day the bridge opened. I went with my friend Janice and we waited with all the
other people who wanted to cross the bridge too. Everyone was very happy and talking about the bridge. The
mayor of London, Ken Livingstone, said:"It will be so good to actually walk across the river peacefully,
without cars and trains thundering by." 
     4. Then, at last, we walked across the bridge! We walked slowly and looked down at the river below. I
was very excited. Then I could feel the bridge move a little. It moved to the left and then it moved to the right.
Then it moved again to the left and to the right again. I wasn't excited now, I was a little afraid. The other
people stopped talking and looked at each other. The bridge was swinging to the left and right! I was very
happy to arrive at the other side of the river without a problem. 
     5. The next day the bridge was closed and it had a new name: not the Millennium Bridge but the Wobbly
(摇摆) Bridge! The architect said there was not a problem: the bridge is designed to move. So the bridge was
reopened again later. It is now my favorite bridge in London and I try and cross it as many times as possible.
A. The building of the new bridge
B. Moving bridge finally won my love
C. Opening of the new bridge
D. Special feeling about brdges
E. Everybody loved the bridge
F. Walking across the new bridge
