Many famous stars brought their children to a strange village alone, and they had to spend 72 hours with their children there. The program fully showed us a modern version of the “how to be a good father”. As the young parents today are too busy to take care of their children, this new form of “Lost on the way” played by nanny Daddy and cute kids triggered（触发）a lot of people’s emotional resonance（共鸣）. Both the kids and their parents will find that their hearts are being drawn closer. But this kind of feeling has just proved that there is a big spiritual barrier between the modern parents and children.The TV shows like “Children are hard to support!”, “Where are we going, Dad?”, “hot mom” and “cute kids” are becoming more and more popular. All of these show the new parents’ confusion in children’s education and the appeal for the balance between career and family. In the real life, on the one hand, the young parents feel helpless because they are too busy to accompany their children under the pressures of work and life; on the other hand, they continue to do so. The data collected by HNTV shows that nearly two-thirds of their audience are female, among whom 36% are aged from 25 to 34.We can imagine such a scene that one evening a young mother is watching the show with her young children, while her husband is still at work or trapped in socializing, or maybe is just playing computer games in the bedroom. The story of a child without the company of father is still going on. In fact, it is sometimes the same to mothers. In a modern family, it is often the old who take the responsibility of raising a child. The participation of mother in the children’s education is also very low. It is just this kind of confusion where the parents have gone in the modern family education, and where the parents will guide their children to go that “Where are we going, Dad?” shows us. If a child wants to grow up healthily and safely into a modern citizen with independent personality and free spirit, it is very important for him or her to follow the parents who serve as their first teacher. Maybe this is the real reason why such kind of TV programs could get hot. The truth is that children will go where their parents go; and society will go ‎ where the children go.‎ ‎21.To raise a child in modern society, parents should ________. ‎ A．break down the barrier between children and teachers B．play computer games with their children C．balance well between family and career D．keep their children at home to avoid socializing ‎22.Which of the following can be inferred in the passage? ‎ A．36% of the audience of the program are female aged from 25-34.‎ B．Parents shouldn’t entirely leave the education of children to the old.‎ C．In a modern family it is often mothers who are responsible for raising a child.‎ D．The program shows us the confusion where the parents and children will go to play.‎ ‎23.What does the underlined word “participation” probably mean? ‎ A．taking responsibility B．understanding C．taking part D．keeping company ‎24.Which one is the best title of the passage? ‎ A．New problems in Modern Children’s Education B．Modern Education is Important C．Confusion Behind “Where are we going, dad?”‎ D．Nanny Daddy and Cute Kids B.‎ Minutes after the last movie ended yesterday at the Plaza Theater, employees were busy cleaning up popcorns and gathering coke cups. It was a scene that had been repeated many times in the theater’s 75-year history. This time, however the cleanup was a little different. As one group of workers carried out the rubbish, another group began removing seats and other theater equipment in preparation for the building’s end.‎ The film classic The Last Picture Show was the last movie shown in the old theater. Though the movie is 30 years old, most of the 250 seats were filled with teary-eyed audience wanting to say good-bye to the old building. Theater owner Ed Bradford said he chose the movie because it seemed appropriate. The movie is set in a small town where the only movie theater is preparing to close down.‎ Bradford said that large modem theatres in the city made it impossible for the Plaza to compete. He added that the theater’s location was also a reason.‎ ‎ “This used to be the center of town,” he said. “Now the area is mostly office buildings and warehouses.”‎ Last week some city officials suggested the city might be interested in turning the old theater into a museum and public meeting place. However, these plans were abandoned because of financial problems. Bradford sold the building and land to a local development firm, which plans to build a shopping complex on the land where the theater is located.‎ The theater audience said good-bye as Bradford locked the doors for the last time. After 75 years the Plaza Theater had shown its last movies. The theater will be missed.‎ ‎25. In what way was yesterday’s cleanup at the Plaza special?‎ A. It made room for new equipment. ‎ B. It signaled the closedown of the theater.‎ C. It was done with the help of the audience.‎ D. It marked the 75th anniversary of The theater.‎ ‎26. Why was The Last Picture Show put on?‎ A. It was an all-time classic. B. It was about the history of the town.‎ C. The audience requested it. D. The theater owner found it suitable.‎ ‎27. What will probably happen to the building?‎ A. It will be repaired. B. It will be turned into a museum.‎ C. It will be knocked down. D. It will be sold to the city government.‎ ‎28. What can we infer about the audience?‎ A. They are disappointed with Bradford.‎ B. They are sad to say good-bye to the old theater.‎ C. They are supportive of the city officials.‎ D. They are eager to have a shopping center.‎ C.‎ If you could have one superpower, what would it be?‎ Dreaming about whether you would warn to read minds, see through walls, or have superhuman strength may sound silly, but it actually gets to the heart of what really matters in your life.‎ Every day in our work, we are inspired by the people we meet doing extraordinary things to improve the world.‎ They have a different kind of superpower that all of us possess: the power to make a difference in the lives of others.‎ We’re not saying that everyone needs to contribute their lives to the poor. Your lives are busy enough doing homework, playing sports, making friends, seeking after your dreams. But we do think that you can live a more powerful life when you devote some of your time and energy to something much larger than yourself. Find an issue you are interested in and learn more. Volunteer or, if you can , contribute a little money to a cause. Whatever you do, don’t be a bystander. Get involved. You may have the opportunity to make your biggest difference when you’re older. But why not start now?‎ Our own experience working together on health, development, and energy the last twenty years has been one of the most rewarding parts of our lives. It has changed who we are and continues to fuel our optimism about how much the lives of the poorest people will improve in the years ahead.‎ ‎29. What does the underlined part in Paragraph 2 refer to?‎ A. Your lifestyle. B. Your life value.‎ C. Your trouble in life. D. Your life experience.‎ ‎30. Why does the author say they are inspired every day?‎ A. They possess different kinds of superpowers.‎ B. They have got the power to change the world.‎ C. Some people around them arc making the world better.‎ D. There are many powerful people in their life and work.‎ ‎31. What does the author stress in Paragraph 5?‎ A. Learning more and contributing more to a cause.‎ B. Rising above self and acting to help others.‎ C. Working hard to get a bigger opportunity.‎ D. Trying your best to help the poor.‎ ‎32. What can be inferred from the last paragraph?‎ A. The author believes the lives of the poorest will get better.‎ B. Much more progress will be made in the near future.‎ C. The work on health is the most valuable experience.‎ D. People’s efforts have been materially rewarded.‎ D. ‎ For years I have had no idea what I have been doing with my life. I was a 30-year-old lawyer(律师) in New York. But being a lawyer was never my dream or goal in life. I honestly wanted to be a writer. I have a great imagination and would write amazing stories in my head. But I always knew that being a writer ‎ was never possible for me because it was a better financial decision to stay a lawyer.‎ Recently, I couldn’t fall asleep at my usual time of 10 p. m. and when I did fall asleep I had the same dream over and over again. The dream starts with me in the ocean trying to go for a swim and I’m searching for something, but I start to drown(溺水) and have no control over my body. Then a light shines through the waters and when I look up all I can see is myself in a bright white room writing a novel. Then I hear a voice say repeatedly, “Now is the time to try something new!”‎ It wasn’t just a dream；it was my opportunity to make something good out of my life. That afternoon, I quit my job at the law firm and I couldn’t have been any happier. My life started at 30, and every day since that point I haven’t stopped enjoying life. I started to write and have been on the best-sellers（畅销书） list for the last two months. Things have definitely turned around.‎ Change is a good thing; it gives us an opportunity to take a chance. So my two favorite words I live by and so should you are “change and chance”.‎ ‎33. From the first paragraph, we can know that ________.‎ A. a lawyer is likely to earn more than a writer ‎ B. it is unlikely that the author becomes a writer C. the author is a 30-year-old lawyer at present D. the author prefers to be a lawyer rather than a writer ‎34. The second paragraph mainly talks about the author’s ________.‎ A. strong desire to become a writer B. difficulty in sleeping at night.‎ C. wish to have a swim in the waters D. terrible swimming experience in the ocean.‎ ‎35. The best title of the text might be _________. ‎ A. Change and Choice B. Lawyer or Writer ‎ C. Change and Chance D. Risk or Opportunity ‎ 第二节 （共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）‎ 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。（答案涂在答题卡71-75）‎ Choosing to Study Overseas Every year, thousands of students choose to study in another country for a semester, the summer, or a year. Studying overseas can be an exciting experience for people.‎ ‎ 36 ‎ Living in another country can help you to learn a language, and about another culture.
