    题目列表(包括答案和解析)

    　　To make coffee when he signed, he was quite confident. (He thought the experience would make a nice book. )

    　　After 40 of the 70 days, he was ready to give up.“I was beaten down, completely humbled,”admits Peters. Three weeks later he spoke to the local press (also part of the bargain), stating,“Not only is motherhood a difficult task, not only is it never-ending, it is an impossible job for any normal human being.”

    　　 Bob and Pat were high school sweethearts. After they were married in 1960, she worked as a secretary to help put him through university. Since then Bob has been the football and wrestling coach at Palo Alto's Cubberley High while Pat raised the kids.

    　　Then two years ago Pat went back to work as a secretary at Cubberley.“I had been around children so much,”she sighs（叹气）,“I couldn't talk to a grownup.”She continued to run the household, however until Bob signed the contract, whereupon she decided to relax and enjoy it.

    　　Although Peters had consulted with his school's home economics teachers and the head of the cafeteria（食堂）,his meals were sometimes a disaster.“I tried to slip the butter I'd forgotten under the eggs after they were frying,”he says. For the last three weeks, the family ate out a lot sometimes having Macdonald's hamburgers for lunch and dinner.

    　　As for housekeeping, a home economics teacher had told Bob that a room always looks clean if the bed is made.“I found an easier way--I shut the doors,“he says. Soon the kids were wearing the same clothes for a week.“I made them wear their shirts inside out, and when we went to pick up Pat at work they turned them fight side out so they would look clean.”

    　　Now that Bob has publicly admitted he was wrong, he is routinely（日常地）sharing the child-raising and household tasks with Pat. The tentative（暂定的）title of his book about the summer is taken from something he shouted at the kids one day:“A contract”.

    (1) The couple signed the contract because ________.

    　　Children start out a natural scientists, eager to look into the world around them． Helping them enjoy science can be easy; there’s no need for a lot of scientific terms or expensive lab equipment． You only have to share your children’s curiosity． Firstly, listen to their questions． I once visited a classroom of seven－year－olds to talk about science as a job． The children asked me “textbook questions” about schooling, salary and whether I liked my job． when I finished answering, we sat facing one another in silence． Finally I said, “Now that we’re finished with your lists, do you have questions of your own about science?”

    　　After a long pause, a boy raised his hand, “Have you ever seen a grasshopper(蚱蜢) eat? When I try eating leaves like that, I get a stomachache． Why?”

    　　This began a set of questions that lasted nearly two hours．

    　　Secondly, give them time to think． Studies over the past 30 years have shown that, after asking a question, adults typically wait only one second or less for an answer, no time for a child to think． When adults increase their “wait time” to three seconds or more, children give more logical(符合逻辑的), complete and creative answers．

    　　Thirdly, watch your language． Once you have a child involved(参加) in a science discussion, don’t jump in with “That’s right” or “Very good”． These words work well when it comes to encouraging good behavior． But in talking about science, quick praise can signal that discussion is over． Instead, keep things going by saying, “That’s interesting” or “I’d never thought of it that way before”, or coming up with more questions or ideas．

    　　Never push a child to “think”． It doesn’t make sense． Children are always thinking, without your telling them to． What’s more, this can turn a conversation into a performance． The child will try to find the answer you want, in as few words as possible, so that he will be a smaller target for your disagreement．

    　　Lastly, show; don’t tell． Real－life impressions of nature are far more impressive than any lesson children can learn from a book or television program． Let children look at their fingertips through a magnifying glass(放大镜),and they’ll understand why you want them to wash before dinner． Rather than saying that water evaporates(蒸发), set a pot of water to boil and let them watch the water level drop．

    (1)

    Lions are opportunists. They prefer to eat without having to do too much work. When resting in the shade, they are also watching the sky to see what is flying by, and even in the heat of the day they will suddenly start up and run a mile across the plains to find out what is going on. If another animal has made a kill，they will drive it off and take the kill for themselves. A grown lion can easily eat 60 pounds of meat at a single feeding. Often they eat until it seems painful for them to lie down.

           The lionesses， being thinner and faster, are better hunters than the males. But the males don't mind. After the kill they move in and take the best share.

           Most kills are made at night or just before daybreak. We have seen many， many daylight attempts but only ten kills. Roughly， it's about twenty daytime attempts for one kill.

           When lions are hiding for an attack by a water hole， they wait patiently and can charge at any second. The kill is the exciting moment in the day-to-day life of the lion， since these great animals spend most of their time， about 20 hours a day， sleeping and resting.

           Lions are social cats， and when they are having a rest， they love to touch each other. After drinking at a water hole， a lioness rests her head on another's back. When walking， young lions often touch faces with older ones， an act of close ties among members of the group.

    1．By describing lions as “opportunists” in the first paragraph, the author means to say that lions

                     .

           A．are cruel animals                                  B．are clever animals

           C．like to take advantage of other animals   D．like to take every chance to eat

    2．According to the text，which of the following is true？

           A．Lions make most kills in the daytime.

           B．Males care more about eating than active killing.

           C．Lions are curious about other animals and people.

           D．It doesn't take lions too much time to make a kill.

    3．How can we know that lions are social animals？

           A．They often depend on lionesses.

           B．They look after each other well.

           C．They readily share what they have.

           D．They enjoy each other’s company.

    4．What would be the best title for the text？

           A．Powerful Lions                                    B．Lions at Work and Play

           C．Lions，Social Cats                  D．Lions，Skilled Hunters
