However, working more than about 15 hours a week is __1__ for teens because it reduces their involvement with school, and __2__ a materialistic and expensive lifestyle.‎ Schoolwork and the benefits of extracurricular activities tend to be __3__ when teens work long hours. As more and more teens have filled the many parttime jobs, teachers have faced increasing __4__. They must both keep the attention of __5__ students and give homework to those who simply don’t have time to do it.__6__， educators have noticed less involvement in the extracurricular activities that many consider a __7__influence on young people. School bands and athletic teams are __8__ players, and sports events are __9__ attended by working students. Those teens who try to do it all may find themselves __10__.‎ Another __11__ of too much work is that it may promote materialism and an unrealistic lifestyle. Some parents say that working helps teach teens the __12__ of a dollar.__13__ that can be true. It’s also true that some teens work to help their family or to save for college.__14__， surveys have shown that a lot of working teens use their earnings to buy luxuries (奢侈品). These young people won’t spend __15__ — they can just about have it all. In many cases, they are getting used to a lifestyle they won’t be able to __16__ several years down the road, when they no longer have parents __17__ car insurance, food, and so on. At that point, they won’t have enough money to pay for necessities as well as luxuries.‎ Teenagers can __18__ the benefits of work while avoiding its drawbacks, simply by __19__ their work hours during the school year. As is often the case, a moderate (适度的) approach will be the most healthy and __20__.‎ 语篇解读：本文是一篇议论文。文章主要论述了青少年打零工的弊端。‎ ‎1．A.bad　　　　　　　　 　B．dull C．important D．useful 解析：选A　根据下文的“because it reduces their involvement with school”可知，打零工占用的时间过多对青少年是“不利的(bad)”。‎ ‎2．A.witnesses B．requires C．changes D．encourages 解析：选D　根据第三段中的“it may promote materialism and an unrealistic lifestyle”可知，此处指“助长(encourages)”一种过于物质的、奢侈的生活方式。‎ ‎3．A.adopted B．forgotten C．disbelieved D．considered 解析：选B　根据第6空后“educators have noticed less involvement in the extracurricular activities”可知，青少年打零工时间过长会使得他们“忽略(forgotten)”学业和课外活动。‎ ‎4．A.demands B．threats C．difficulties D．expectations 解析：选C　根据下文的“They must both ... have time to do it.”可知，老师因此也得面对越来越多的“困难(difficulties)”。‎ ‎5．A.tired B．naughty C．lazy D．weak 解析：选A　根据上文的“As more and more teens have filled the many parttime jobs”可知，因为学生兼职要浪费很多精力，所以上课时就会很“累(tired)”。‎ ‎6．A.Above all B．In addition C．By contrast D．For example 解析：选B　第二段开头提到“Schoolwork”和“extracurricular activities”‎ ‎，前半段谈了schoolwork，故此处是在说另一方面。“此外(In addition)”符合语境。‎ ‎7．A.healthy B．direct C．short D．bad 解析：选A　根据本段开头的“the benefits”可知，很多人都认为课外活动对学生“有益(healthy)”。‎ ‎8．A.welcoming B．needing C．losing D．training 解析：选C　因为很多学生打零工占用了他们太多时间，所以学校的乐队、运动队的学生都在“流失(losing)”，打零工的学生参加体育比赛的人也“不多(poorly)”。‎ ‎9．A.normally B．regularly C．actively D．poorly 解析：选D　 解析见上题。‎ ‎10．A.exhausted B．energetic C．disappointed D．worried 解析：选A　根据上文的“try to do it all”及上文语境可判断，想要打工、学习、参加活动都不误，当然会感到“疲惫不堪的(exhausted)”。‎ ‎11．A.side B．benefit C．drawback D．character 解析：选C　本文介绍的是学生打零工占用太多时间的两个弊端，此段是另外一个“弊端(drawback)”。‎ ‎12．A.size B．cost C．value D．effect 解析：选C　一些父母认为，打零工可以帮助学生了解金钱的“价值(value)”。‎ ‎13．A.Unfortunately B．Undoubtedly C．Unusually D．Unnecessarily 解析：选B　根据下文的“It’s also true”可知，此处是说上面提到的“确实(Undoubtedly)”是对的。‎ ‎14．A.However B．Besides C．Instead D．Therefore 解析：选A　根据下文的“a lot of working teens use their earnings to buy luxuries (奢侈品)”可知，学生打零工可以帮他们了解金钱的价值、贴补家用、为上大学攒钱，“但是(However)”，这也导致了学生购买奢侈品。‎ ‎15．A.freely B．willingly C．wisely D．honestly 解析：选C　根据下文的“they can just about have it all”可知，因为觉得自己什么都要拥有，这些学生从不考虑“理智(wisely)”消费。‎ ‎16．A.afford B．imagine C．face D．develop 解析：选A　根据下文的“they won’t have enough money to pay for necessities as well as luxuries”可知，等到以后父母不帮他们“付(paying for)”车险、食物等费用后，他们自己根本就“负担(afford)”不起各种开支了。‎ ‎17．A.looking for B．caring for C．working for D．paying for 解析：选D　解析见上题。‎ ‎18．A.enjoy B．learn C．share D．remember 解析：选A　根据下文的“while avoiding its drawbacks”可知，此处指青少年只要规避打零工的缺点，就能“享受(enjoy)”打零工所带来的好处。‎ ‎19．A.ignoring B．limiting C．counting D．choosing 解析：选B　根据上文的“long hours”及下文的“a moderate (适度的) approach”可知，作者建议“限制(limiting)”打零工的时间。‎ ‎20．A.practical B．acceptable C．rewarding D．popular 解析：选C　根据该空前的“healthy”可知，此处是说适度才会有“所得(rewarding)”。‎ ‎【二】‎ Whenever my child caused me to change my schedule, I thought to myself, “We don’t have time for this.” __1__， the two words I most commonly spoke to my child were: “Hurry up.” But my promise to __2__ was made almost three years ago, and I began my journey to grasp what __3__ in life.

Suddenly a look of worry __7__ on her face. “Do I have to rush, Mama？”‎ I could have __8__. Perhaps the pains of a __9__ life don’t ever completely disappear, I thought sadly. As my child looked up at me waiting to know __10__ she could take her time, I knew I had a(n) __11__. I could sit there __12__ about the number of times when I rushed my child through life ... or I could celebrate the fact that today I’m trying to do things __13__. I chose to live in today.‎ ‎“You don’t have to rush. Just take your time，” I said in a(n) __14__ way. Her whole face instantly brightened and her shoulders __15__. And so we sat side by side talking about things that interested us.‎ When she got to the last bite, she held out a spoonful of ice crystals and sweet juice for me. “I __16__ the last bite for you, Mama，” my daughter said __17__.

The fact is, __2__ it is a relationship involving people, there will always be conflicts once in a while because __3__ human beings are complicated (复杂的)．‎ I guess even in the animal kingdom there are complications, too.
