That is one of the questions TFK and KidsHealth. org recently asked in an anonymous (匿名的) survey conducted online. More than 8,000 kids answered. “We just want to spend time with you，” said a 12yearold. “At 13, you can't treat me like I'm 6，” another kid said. An 11yearold wrote, “Being a kid is a lot harder than it looks.” The kids who took our survey made it clear that they want to feel close to the important people in their life — their mom, dad and other caring adults. But their answers also show that it is not always easy to deal with these close relationships.‎ Many kids — two out of three — said they get along pretty well or very well with their parents. About four out of five kids told us that they have fun with their parents. But that doesn't mean they never disagree. In fact, most kids reported arguing with their parents, at least sometimes. “It's absolutely normal to disagree and argue，” says D'Arcy Lyness, a child psychologist. “But it's also important to learn how to do so respectfully.” About half of the kids said they are doing that. When they disagree with their parents, they say they discuss issues calmly.‎ But two out of five kids said arguments tend to involve yelling (喊叫) at each other. Lyness points out that shouting never helps. “Speak up, and let your parents know your ideas and your opinions，” she advises. “But be patient. Don't use a raised, angry voice.”‎ Kids made it clear that they would rather avoid conflict altogether.‎ ‎ Not surprisingly, three out of four kids admitted to lying at times. Many said they lied to avoid getting in trouble or disappointing their parents. According to Lyness, lying isn't just wrong. It can actually get negative results. Telling the truth builds trust. “When parents can trust you, they are more likely to give you more freedom and more privileges，” she says.‎ 语篇解读：孩子要处理好与自己的亲人的关系并不是很容易，儿童专家建议孩子们要大胆表达自己的诉求，与家长交流沟通，彼此建立信任关系。‎ ‎1．What can we learn from the first paragraph?‎ A．The relationship is always fixed.‎ B．The relationship is often changing.‎ C．Usually it is easy to deal with the relationship.‎ D．Sometimes it is hard to deal with the relationship.‎ 解析：选D　推理判断题。根据第一段最后一句“But their answers also show that it is not always easy to deal with these close relationships.”可知孩子要处理好与自己的亲人(父母、亲戚等)的关系并不是很容易。‎ ‎2．What advice does Lyness give to children on how to get along with parents?‎ A．Talking to their friends.‎ B．Expressing their own opinions.‎ C．Hiding themselves from parents.‎ D．Being friends with their teachers.‎ 解析：选B　细节理解题。根据第三段第三句“‘Speak up, and let your parents know your ideas and your opinions，’ she advises.”可知莱茵斯建议孩子们学会表达，让父母知道自己的想法。‎ ‎3．Why do some children lie to their parents according to the last paragraph?‎ A．In order not to let teachers down.‎ B．In order not to run into trouble.‎ C．In order to make time for parents.‎ D．In order to have fun with parents.‎ 解析：选B　细节理解题。根据最后一段第三句“Many said they lied to avoid getting in trouble or disappointing their parents.”可知孩子跟父母撒谎是为了避免陷入困境或不让父母失望。‎ ‎4．What can be a suitable title for the text?‎ A．Kids Get Up　　　　　　 B．Kids Hold Up C．Kids Stand Up D．Kids Speak Up 解析：选D　标题归纳题。文章从关于儿童怎样与父母和谐相处的调研入手，着重强调了儿童专家所给出的意见，那就是建议孩子们大胆表达自己的诉求，与家长交流沟通，彼此建立信任关系。‎ B ‎(2019·郑州市高三质量预测)At 23, my career got going. I was midway through a master's degree at the London School of Economics and Political Science and had been hired as a parttime reporter for a finance website. I got a great onemonth review and my boss asked if I was interested in staying at the company after graduation.‎ However, balancing graduate studies with work was challenging. To deal with it, I checked my real self at my office door. I came in to work, greeted my colleagues and listened more than I contributed in each morning meeting. The small team I worked with often seemed busy, so rather than giving ideas that might get turned down, I stayed back.‎ After four months, my boss called me into his office. The meeting ‎ was going well until he told me that despite the great work I had produced, the team had held a meeting and decided, “We don't think it's the right fit.”‎ I must have looked confused. “You're ambitious, intelligent and will be very successful，” my boss said. “But you haven't made enough effort to join the team. You lost the enthusiasm you showed in your interview. That won't work long term, and if I could give you one piece of advice, it would be to get your guard down.” I couldn't believe that performing well at my job wasn't enough to keep it. But I knew my boss was right. They knew that when they hired me, I had no experience in finance reporting, yet they took a chance on me. In meetings I usually contributed last, after I had heard everyone else's suggestions. I did it to show that I was a listener, but also to hide my fears. They liked the person who walked into the interview, and they didn't respect me when I hid that person from them.‎ ‎“Don't leave before you leave.” That advice is essential for women at all stages of our careers. Because we work so hard for success, we don't like to think that we hurt ourselves sometimes. But each of us must change when necessary. In trying to earn a fulltime job, I “leaned back” in order not to show too much of myself or my lack of expertise (专门知识). I learned that the hard way wasn't the way to achieve our goals.‎ 语篇解读：本文是一篇夹叙夹议文。“我”在公司工作，在团队里，“我”辛苦勤奋，所在的团队也紧张忙碌，但是“我”害怕表达自己的主张和建议。老板在肯定了“我”的成绩的同时，建议“我”勇于表达自己的主张，分享个人的建议。‎ ‎5．Why was the author offered a job at the company at first?‎ A．Because she just got her master's degree in finance.‎ B．Because she greatly impressed her boss in her first month.‎ C．Because she had quite a lot of experience in finance reporting.‎ D．Because she showed her special financial talent while working there.‎ 解析：选B　细节理解题。根据第一段第三句“I got a great onemonth review and my boss asked if I was interested in staying at the company after graduation.”可知，在第一个月的工作中，“我”获得了很高的评价，给老板留下了深刻的印象，故老板决定聘用“我”。故B项正确。‎ ‎6．During her next four months at the company, the author ________.‎ A．performed well enough to earn the team's respect B．didn't balance her graduate studies with work very well C．was a good listener and contributed a lot in the meetings D．was afraid to offer her ideas because of her lack of confidence 解析：选D　细节理解题。根据第二段第四句“The small team I worked with often seemed busy, so rather than giving ideas that might get turned down, I stayed back.”，并结合第四段倒数第二句“I did it to show that I was a listener, but also to hide my fears.”可知，“我”工作所在的团队常常看起来很忙碌，“我”担心自己的建议或想法遭到拒绝，所以只愿做一个倾听者。据此可知，由于缺乏自信，“我”害怕表达自己的想法，故D项正确。‎ ‎7．What does the author intend to tell us in the passage?‎ A．We should always keep up our enthusiasm at work.‎ B．Expertise and experience are greatly valued in the workplace.‎ C．We should not shy away from sharing our ideas when working in a team.‎ D．It's unwise of women to show themselves off when they are taking part in teamwork.‎ 解析：选C　写作意图题。文章第二段描述了“我”辛苦勤奋，所在的团队紧张忙碌，第三、四段讲述老板对“我”工作的评价：虽然辛苦努力，但是“我”缺乏在团队中建言献策的自信和勇气，并不能赢得团队的尊敬。据此可以判断，本文旨在告诉读者在团队工作中不要畏避表达自己的观点，故C项正确。‎ C ‎(2019·陕西省高三教学质量检测)Career success could be predicted as early as kindergarten, according to a 20year study recently published in the American journal Public Health.‎ Researchers from Pennsylvania State University and Duke University tracked more than 700 children from across the US between kindergarten and age 25 and found a significant correlation (关联) between their social skills as kindergarteners and their success as adults two decades later.‎ In the research, teachers assessed how the kindergarteners interacted with each other socially using a range of criteria like whether they cooperate with their peers without prompting, whether they're helpful to others, whether they're good at understanding feelings, and whether they can solve problems on their own.‎ Researchers then kept track of whether the students go on to graduate from high school on time, get a college degree, and find and keep a fulltime job by 25. They also monitored the participants' involvement with crime, drug abuse, public assistance, and mental health issues.‎ The results showed that socially capable children are far more likely to earn a college degree and have a fulltime job by 25 than those with ‎ limited social skills. Those with limited social skills also have a higher chance of getting arrested, binge drinking, and applying for public housing.‎ ‎“This study shows that helping children develop social and emotional skills is one of the most important things we can do to prepare them for a healthy future，” said Kristin Schubert, program director at the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation, which funded the research, in a release. “From an early age, these skills can determine whether a child goes to college or prison, and whether they end up employed or addicted.”‎ The good news, according to Damon Jones, lead author of the study, is that intervention (干预) at a young age can help improve social and emotional skills.‎ ‎“This research by itself doesn't prove that higher social competence can lead to better outcomes later on，” he said. “But when combined with other research, it is clear that helping children develop these skills increases their chances of success in school, work, and life.”‎ 语篇解读：美国的一项研究发现孩子们在幼儿园期间学到的社交技巧与他们未来的成功密不可分。‎ ‎8．What did the 20year study find?‎ A．Most kindergarteners can solve problems alone.‎ B．Helpful children understand others' feelings better.‎ C．Outgoing children cooperate with their peers easily.‎ D．Social skills play a key role in children's development.‎ 解析：选D　推理判断题。根据文章的前三段的内容可知，这项为期20年的研究发现孩子们在幼儿园期间学到的社交技巧与他们未来的成功密不可分。故选D。‎ ‎9．What's Paragraph 2 and 3 mainly about?‎ A．When the researchers began their study.‎ B．How long it took to complete the study.‎ C．How the researchers conducted the study.‎ D．What factors were studied by the researchers.‎ 解析：选C　段落大意题。第二段和第三段主要介绍了研究者是如何进行这项研究的。故选C。‎ ‎10．What should parents do to help their children to succeed according to Kristin Schubert?‎ A．Teach them how to cooperate with others.‎ B．Teach them some basic living skills.‎ C．Tell them to keep off alcohol.‎ D．Coach them in their lessons.‎ 解析：选A　推理判断题。根据第六段的内容可知，Kristin Schubert认为家长帮助孩子培养社交和感情技巧是很重要的，这样能帮助孩子走向成功。故选A。A项中的“how to cooperate with others”属于社交技巧。‎ ‎11．According to the passage, it is probably intended for ________.‎ A．teenagers B．educators C．doctors D．general readers 解析：选B　推理判断题。根据最后一段的内容可知，研究者Damon Jones认为，结合其他的研究，帮助孩子培养社交技能显然能够促进孩子在学习、工作和生活方面的成功。由此可推知，本文可能是为教育工作者撰写的。故选B。‎ D ‎(2019·福建省普通高中毕业班质量检查)The English have a difficult and, generally speaking, dysfunctional (反常的) relationship with clothes. Their main problem is that they have a desperate need for rules, and are unable to get along without them. This helps to explain why they have an international reputation for dressing in general very badly, but with specific areas of excellence, such as highclass men's suits, ceremonial costumes, and innovative (革新的) street fashion. In other words, we English dress best when we are “in uniform”．‎ You may be surprised that I am including “innovative street fashion” in the category of the uniform. Surely the parrothaired punks (朋克摇滚乐迷) or the Victorian vampire goths are being original, not following rules? It's true that they all look different and eccentric (古怪的) but in fact they all look eccentric exactly in the same way. They are wearing a uniform. The only truly eccentric dresser in this country is the Queen, who pays no attention to fashion and continues to wear what she likes, a kind of 1950s fashion, with no regard for anyone else's opinion. However, it is true that the styles invented by young English people are much more eccentric than any other nation's street fashion. We may not be individually eccentric, apart from the Queen, but we have a sort of collective eccentricity, and we appreciate originality in dress even if we do not individually have it.‎ Another “rule” of behavior I had discovered was that it is very important for the English not to take themselves too seriously, to be able to laugh at themselves. However, it is well known that most teenagers tend to take themselves a bit too seriously.‎ The goths, in their scary black costumes, certainly look as if they are taking themselves seriously. But when I got into conversation with them, I discovered that they too had a sense of humor. I was once chatting to a ‎ goth in the full vampire costume — with a white face, deep purple lipstick, and black parrothair. I saw he was also wearing a Tshirt with “Goth”. “Why are you wearing that？” I asked. “In case you don't realize I'm a goth，” he answered, pretending to be serious. We both burst out laughing.‎ 语篇解读：本文主要讲述了英国人是如何着装的。‎ ‎12．What can we know about the English people?‎ A．They need rules to dress well.‎ B．They are in need of uniforms.‎ C．They are creative in general.‎ D．They lead the world trend.‎ 解析：选A　细节理解题。根据第一段的第二句“Their main problem is that they have a desperate need for rules, and are unable to get along without them.”可知，英国人需要了解如何穿得优雅和得体，他们需要这方面的规则，故选A。‎ ‎13．Who is individually eccentric in dressing?‎ A．A highclass man.‎ B．A parrothaired punk.‎ C．The Queen.‎ D．The fashion innovator.‎ 解析：选C　细节理解题。根据第二段中的“The only truly eccentric dresser in this country is the Queen ... with no regard for anyone else's opinion.”可知，女王穿着古怪，故选C。‎ ‎14．Which of the following can best describe the goths?‎ A．They dress badly.‎ B．They dress in an amusing way.‎ C．They are unable to laugh at the way they dress.‎ D．They are less fashionable than the other English people.‎ 解析：选B　推理判断题。根据第二段中的“It's true that they all look different and eccentric (古怪的)”和最后一段的内容可推知，那些哥特摇滚乐爱好者的穿着很好笑，故选B。‎ ‎15．What may be the best title for the text?‎ A．How the English Dress B．How the English Admire Fashion C．Why the English Like Uniforms D．Why the English Are Eccentric in Dress 解析：选A　标题归纳题。根据第一段的第一句“The English have a difficult and, generally speaking, dysfunctional (反常的) relationship with clothes.”和全文的整体内容可推知，本文主要讲的是英国人是如何着装的，故选A。‎ Ⅱ.阅读七选五 ‎(2019·陕西省高三教学质量检测)‎ How to Choose a Topic for Your Paper No matter what research paper you write, the first and most important step is to choose the topic. __1__ Here are some tips for you to follow.‎ To choose a good topic, you'll have to ask yourself some important questions. Is there enough research available on this topic? Is the topic new and unique enough that I can offer fresh opinions? Is it related to my subject and future occupation?‎ ‎__2__ Writing about something you enjoy certainly shows in the final product, making it more likely that you will be successful in writing a paper about something you enjoy.‎ If you are writing a research paper for a class, consider the other students. __3__ How can you keep your paper unique and interesting if everyone is writing about the same thing?‎ Ask your professor or classmates for advice, if you're struggling to come up with a “right” topic. __4__ Sometimes asking professors for help may seem frightening, but if they are worth anything as a professor, they want you to be successful in your work, and will do what they can to make that happen.‎ If you choose a topic, begin researching, and realize that it isn't the right decision for you for some reason, don't worry! __5__ Although it requires a bit more time, yet changing your topic will make your writing more efficient.‎ A．Have a clear picture of organization in mind.‎ B．Be courageous and change it.‎ C．Is it likely that they will also be writing about your topic?‎ D．However, many students are discouraged by this first step.‎ E．Take a trip to your local library or university library.‎ F．Choose a topic that you have very strong emotion in.‎ G．They are likely to have great ideas.‎ 语篇解读：本文主要介绍了如何选择论文主题。‎ ‎1．选D　根据上文的“the first and most important step is to choose the topic”可推知，此处应表示“可是很多学生在第一步就受挫”，所以选D项。‎ ‎2．选F　根据下文的“Writing about something you enjoy ... paper about something you enjoy.”可知，本段主要讲要对自己的选题有兴趣，这样才有可能写好，所以选F项。‎ ‎3．选C　根据上文的“consider the other students”及下文的“How can ‎ you keep your paper unique and interesting if everyone is writing about the same thing？”可知，论文选题要考虑到其他学生是否也会选同一话题，所以选C项。‎ ‎4．选G　根据上文的“Ask your professor or classmates for advice, if you're struggling to come up with a ‘right’ topic.”可推知，老师或同学可能会给你一些好的建议，所以选G项。‎ ‎5．选B　根据上文的“it isn't the right decision”及下文的“changing your topic will make your writing more efficient”可知，发现选题不合适时要有足够的勇气去替换它，所以选B项。‎
