Many of the topics we write about won’t be covered in the classroom. All the articles are written in a lively style, and each one is paired with drawings by some of the country’s most talented artists.‎ ‎♦ History focuses on archaeological (考古的) sites around the world where archaeologists work to unearth important finds.‎ ‎♦ World includes stories about daily life, folk tales, and history and traditions of the people and places.‎ ‎♦ Sport includes nutrition tips, information about up-and-coming young athletes, and sports events.‎ ‎♦ Art stimulates a child’s cultural life, from film to theatre through to writing and music.‎ On top of all that, Pastime is packed with items to stimulate a youngster’s imagination, including pages of puzzles and a step-by-step guide to creating their own impressive-looking drawings.‎ In every issue, we review the latest books top authors write for youngsters. There are also short works of fiction written especially for Pastime by some of our best writers.‎ We know that children at this age are dealing with many emotions and sometimes difficult feelings, so we have a personal advice page to reply to questions dealing with personal and moral problems.‎ Unlike many of today’s throwaway comics, Pastime is written and designed to be kept and treasured. We know children love going online — but we also know how much they enjoy holding a printed magazine in their hands, and the excitement they get when each new issue drops through the letterbox personally addressed to them.‎ Subscription Pastime is published six times a year. An annual subscription costs just £20 and makes a great gift for any child aged eight to twelve.‎ To order by phone: Dial 1-800-821-0156 and use Offer Code WEBSAVE86 for print-only subscriptions.‎ You can cancel at any time for magazines that haven’t shipped yet.‎ ‎31. If a reader is interested in festivals, he can read ______.‎ A. History B. World C. Sport D. Art ‎32. What does the magazine provide?‎ A. Photos of talented artists.‎ B.

For subscription, one needs to know that the magazine ______.‎ A. offers electronic copies B. costs £20 for each copy C. is for kindergarten children D. is published every two months ‎【答案】31. B 32. C 33. D ‎【解析】‎ ‎【分析】‎ 本文为一则广告。《消遣》是一本两个月一期的杂志，专为好奇的年轻人而设。文章介绍了这款杂志的特色和订阅方式。‎ ‎【31题详解】‎ 推理判断题。festival是指生活中值得纪念的重要日子，是世界人民为适应生产和生活的需要而共同创造的一种民俗文化。根据文章中World includes stories about daily life, folk tales, and history and traditions of the people and places.‎ ‎（世界包括关于日常生活、民间故事以及人民和地方的历史和传统的故事。）可知，如果一个读者对节日感兴趣，他可以阅读“世界”模块。故B选项正确。‎ ‎【32题详解】‎ 细节理解题。根据文章中的We know that children at this age are dealing with many emotions and sometimes difficult feelings, so we have a personal advice page to reply to questions dealing with personal and moral problems.（我们知道这个年龄段的孩子会处理很多情绪，有时会处理一些困难的情绪，所以我们有个人的建议页面来回答一些个人问题和道德问题。）可知，这本杂志对读者的问题提出建议。故C选项正确。‎ ‎【33题详解】‎ 细节理解题。根据Subscription部分的Pastime is published six times a year.可知，这款杂志两个月出版一期。故D选项正确。‎ ‎【点睛】细节事实理解题主要考查考生对文章中某一些特定细节或文章的重要事实的理解能力。它一般包括直接理解题和语义理解题两种。直接理解题的答案与原文直接挂钩，从阅读材料中可以找到。此外，在阅读中可以使用定位法与跳读法解决细节理解题。定位法即根据题干和选项所提供的信息直接从原文中找到相应的句子(即定位)，然后进行比较和分析(尤其要注意一些同义转换)，从而找出正确答案。跳读法即根据题干和选项所提供的信息跳读原文，并找到相关的句子(有时可能是几个句子)或段落，然后进行分析和推理等，从而找出正确答案。‎ 以本文第3小题为例，本题运用定位法：我们根据题干For subscription, one needs to know that the magazine ____（为了订阅，人们需要知道这本杂志___），其关键词是subscription，从而直接定位到Subscription部分——Pastime is published six times a year. An annual subscription costs just £20 and makes a great gift for any child aged eight to twelve.…for print-only subscriptions.（《消遣》每年出版六次。年度订阅费用只是£20，是一个送给任何八到十二岁孩子的很棒的礼物……纯印刷订阅。）再结合各选项可知，只有D项与原文相符。故D选项正确。‎ B Poet William Stafford once said that we are defined more by the detours (绕行路) in life than by the narrow road toward goals. I like this image. But it was quite by accident that I discovered the deep meaning of his words.‎ For years we made the long drive from our home in Seattle to my parents' home in Boise in nine hours. We traveled the way most people do: the fastest, shortest easiest road, especially when I was alone with four noisy, restless kids who hates confinement (限制) and have strong opinions about ‎ everything.‎ Road trips felt risky, so I would drive fast, stopping only when I had to. We would stick to the freeways and arrive tired.‎ But then Banner, our lamb was born. He was rejected by his mama days before our planned trip to Boise. I had two choices: leave Banner with my husband, or take him with me. My husband made the decision for me.‎ That is how I found myself on the road with four kids, a baby lamb and nothing but my everlasting optimism to see me through. We took the country roads out of necessity. We had to stop every hour, let Banner shake out his legs and feed him. The kids chased him and one another. They'd get back in the car breathless and energized, smelling fresh from the cold air.‎ We explored side roads, catching grasshoppers in waist-high grass. Even if we simply looked out of the car windows at baby pigs following their mother, or fish leaping out of the water, it was better than the best ride down the freeway. Here was life. And new horizons.‎ We eventually arrived at my parents' doorstep astonishingly fresh and full of stories.‎ I grew brave with the trip back home and creative with my disciplining technique. On an empty section of road, everyone started quarreling. I stopped the car, ordered all kids out and told them to meet me up ahead. I parked my car half a mile away and read my book in sweet silence.‎ Some road trips are by necessity fast and straight. But that trip with Banner opened our eyes to a world available to anyone adventurous enough to wander around and made me realize that a detour may uncover the best part of a journey-and the best part of yourself.‎ ‎34. Why did the author use to take freeways to her parents' home?‎ A. It was less tiring.‎ B. It would be faster and safer.‎ C. Her kids would feel less confined.‎ D. She felt better with other drivers nearby.‎ ‎35. What does the author discover from the trip according to Paragraph 6?‎ A. Freeways are where beauty hides.‎ B. Getting close to nature adds to the joy of life C. Enjoying the beauty of nature benefits one's health D. One should follow side roads to watch wild animals ‎36. Why did the author ask the kids to get out of the car on their way back home?‎ A. To give herself some time to read.‎ B. To order some food for them.‎ C. To play a game with them.‎ D. To let them cool down.‎ ‎37. What could be the best title for the passage?‎ A. Charm of the Detour B. The Road to Bravery C Creativity out of Necessity D. Road trip and Country Life ‎【答案】34. B 35. B 36. D 37. A ‎【解析】‎ ‎【分析】‎ 本文是一篇记叙文。主要讲作者一次带着孩子和小羊羔Banner去父母家的绕道旅行，发现绕道旅行的魅力。‎ ‎【34题详解】‎ 细节理解题。根据文章We traveled the way most people do: the fastest, shortest easiest road, especially when I was alone with four noisy, restless kids who hates confinement (限制) and have strong opinions about everything. 我们大多数人旅行的方式：最快，最简单的路，尤其是当我独自一人和四个吵闹的，不安分的，讨厌限制和有强烈意见的孩子一起的时候。因此可知作者认为freeways更快，更安全，故选B。‎ ‎【35题详解】‎ 推理判断题。第六段Even if we simply looked out of the car windows at baby pigs following their mother, or fish leaping out of the water, it was better than the best ride down the freeway.和最后一段都说明作者很开心，由此可以推断，这段旅程是生活中最美好的，因此接近自然可以增加生活的乐趣，故选B。‎ ‎【36题详解】‎ 细节理解题。根据文章On an empty section of road, everyone started quarreling. I stopped the car, ordered all kids out and told them to meet me up ahead. ‎ 在一段空旷的道路上，孩子们都开始争吵。我停下车，命令所有的孩子都下车，让他们在前面等我。根据前面孩子们争吵，可知作者让孩子下车去冷静，故选D。‎ ‎【37题详解】‎ 主旨大意题。文中第一句Poet William Stafford once said that we are defined more by the detours (绕行路)in life than by the narrow road toward goals. 诗人William Stafford曾经说过，我们更多地被定义为生活中的绕行路，而不是通往目标的狭窄道路。 和最后一段都说明绕行路的魅力，因此A选项Charm of the Detour“绕行路的魅力”符合中心思想，更适合做标题，故选A。‎ ‎【点睛】标题应位于文章之首，概括文章内容，点明文章主题。它可以是单词，短语，或句子。确定文章标题，第一，标题要与主题密切相关；其次，看标题是否能概括全文内容，不能只概括短文中的某些事实或细节；第三，标题范围不应太大或太小；最后，标题应新颖，概括性强并且精炼。小题4，本文主要讲作者一次带着孩子和小羊羔Banner去父母家的绕道旅行，发现绕道旅行的魅力。A选项Charm of the Detour“绕行路的魅力”，符合文章中心思想，适合做标题，故选D。‎ C An open office is supposed to force employees to cooperate. To have them talk more face to face. To get them off instant messenger (IM) and brainstorming new ideas. But a recent study by two researchers offers evidence to support what many people who work in open offices already know: It doesn’t really work that way. The noise causes people to put on headphones and tune out. The lack of privacy causes others to work from home when they can. And the sense of being in a fishbowl means many choose email over a desk-side chat.‎ Ethan Bernstein and Stephen Turban, two Harvard Business School professors, studied two Fortune 500 companies that made the shift to an open office environment from one where workers had more privacy. Using “sociometric” electronic badges (徽章) and microphones, as well as data on email and instant messenger use by employees, the researchers found in the first study that after the organization made the move to open-plan offices, workers spent 73% less time in face-to-face interaction. Meanwhile, email use rose 67% and IM use went up 75%.‎ The participants wore the badges and microphones for several weeks before the office was redesigned and for several after, and the company gave the researchers access to their electronic communications. The results were astonishing. “We were surprised by the degree to which we found the effect,” Bernstein said. The badges could tell that two people had a face-to-face interaction without recording actual spoken words. The researchers were careful to make sure other factors weren’t in ‎ question—the business cycle was similar, for instance, and the group of employees were the same.‎ In a second study the researchers looked at the changes in interaction between specific pairs of colleagues, finding a similar drop in face-to-face communication and a smaller but still significant increase in electronic correspondence.‎ Another wrinkle in their research, Bernstein said, is that not only did workers shift the way of communication they used, but they also tended to interact with different groups of people online than they did in person. Moving from one kind of communication to another may not be all bad—“maybe email is just more efficient,” he said—but if managers want certain teams of people to be interacting, that may be lost more than they think. The shift in office space could “have strong effects on productivity and the quality of work”.‎ Bernstein hopes the research will offer evidence that will help managers consider the possible trade-offs of moving to an open office plan. In seeking a lower cost per square foot, they buy into the idea that it will also lead to more cooperation, even if it’s not clear that’s true. “I don’t blame the architects,” he said. “But I do think we spend more of our time thinking about how to design workplaces based on the observer’s angle”—the manager—“rather than the observed.”‎ ‎38. Employers prefer an open office because they think it can ______.‎ A. increase competition B. improve communication C. create a safe environment D. motivate workers’ responsibility ‎39. Why was there an increase in electronic correspondence among employees?‎ A. Because they thought little of desk-side chat.‎ B. Because they shifted to a new business cycle.‎ C. Because they wanted to protect their privacy.‎ D. Because they needed to complete more tasks.‎ ‎40. What does the underlined word “they” in Paragraph 5 refer to?‎ A. The researchers.‎ B. The managers.‎ C. Certain teams of people.‎ D. Different groups of workers.‎ ‎41. As for the design of workplaces, what is Bernstein’s major concern?‎ A. Connectivity.‎ B. Accessibility.‎ C.

To have them talk more face to face. To get them off instant messenger (IM) and brainstorming new ideas可知，雇主们更喜欢开放的办公室，因为他们认为它可以改善沟通。故B选项正确。‎ ‎【39题详解】‎ 推理判断题。根据第一段中的The lack of privacy causes others to work from home when they can. And the sense of being in a fishbowl means many choose email over a desk-side chat.可知，雇员之间的电子通信越来越多是因为他们想保护自己的隐私。故C选项正确。‎ ‎【40题详解】‎ 词义猜测题。根据划线词所在句if managers want certain teams of people to be interacting, that may be lost more than they think.（如果管理人员希望某些团队的人员进行交流，那么损失可能比他们想象的要多。）可知，划线词they应指代的条件句中的managers。故B选项正确。‎ ‎【41题详解】‎ 推理判断题。根据最后一段中Bernstein hopes the research will offer evidence that will help managers consider the possible trade-offs of moving to an open office plan…But I do think we spend more of our time thinking about how to design workplaces based on the observer’s angle—the manager—rather than the observed.（伯恩斯坦希望，这项研究将提供证据，帮助管理人员考虑转向开放式办公室计划的利弊……但我确实认为，我们花更多的时间考虑如何从旁观者（管理者）的角度来设计工作场所而不是被观察者。）可推知，至于工作场所的设计，伯恩斯坦的主要关注点是用户友好性。故C选项正确。‎ D A generation of parents raised according to the permissive principles of postwar childcare experts ‎ is rediscovering the importance of saying "No" to their children. They are beginning to reclaim the house as their own. Even spanking (打屁股) is back. ‎ While today's parents do not want to return to the Victorian era (时代) — when children were seen, spanked, but not heard — there is a growing acknowledgement that the laissez-faire approach produced a generation of children running rings around puzzled parents struggling to restore order. ‎ Janthea Brigden, a trainer with Parent Network, says: “The problem is that parents don't want all that controlling things. What they want is to be able to discipline (管教) their children through teaching and encouraging."‎ According to Steve Biddulph, the author of More Secrets of Happy Children, the permissive era was often just an excuse to ignore children. He believes discipline involves firm but friendly teaching and does not need to involve punishment. He teaches a method called "stand and think”, where a child is helped to figure out what is wrong and how to get it right. Mr. Biddulph understands parents using spanking, but lie is against it. "The happiest children are those who know Mum and Dad are in charge. As children grow into their teens, more negotiation can take place, such as: Prove you can be home safely by ‎1l pm, and we might let you stay out till midnight."‎ ‎“There is no good evidence that an occasional, properly administered spanking is harmful in any way.”says John Rosemond, an American who has won a huge following by calling for "parent power". It is pure nonsense to believe that restricting children to their room as a punishment could make them have negative feelings about the room and cause sleep problems. ‎ Mr. Rosemond tracks the overturning of traditional family values to the end of the Second World War. He blames the change of the American family into a child-centered, self-respect-oriented (以……为导向) unit on psychologists and social workers, who for 30 years have weakened traditional approaches. Previous generations of American parents raised children not by the book, but by self-evident truth, he says. Children should be seen and not heard. If you make your bed, you'll have to lie in it. He says that those phrases contain time-honored understanding and principles that helped children to develop what we refer to as the "three Rs" of parenting: respect, responsibility and resourcefulness. ‎ ‎42. Which is closest to the meaning of the underlined word "laissez-faire" in the second paragraph?‎ A. Let it be. B. Go for it. ‎ C. Get it right. D. Take it easy. ‎ ‎43. If his child did something wrong, Steve Biddulph would ______. ‎ A. give him a good beating B. lock him up in a dark room C. ask him to stand in a corner for hours D. help him find out the problem and solution ‎44. By mentioning the underlined part in the last paragraph, Mr. Rosemond . ‎ A. blames parents for ignoring children's rights B. reminds parents to communicate more with children C. encourages parents to involve children more in family affairs D. explains how previous generations of parents raised children ‎45. What does the passage mainly talk about?‎ A. The causes of discipline problems. ‎ B. The best way to discipline children. ‎ C. Different opinions on ways of parenting. ‎ D. Differences between parents of different times ‎【答案】42. A 43. D 44. D 45. C ‎【解析】‎ 本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了古代做父母和现代做父母之间的区别。‎ ‎【42题详解】‎ 词义猜测题。根据划线词前面的部分While today's parents do not want to return to the Victorian era (时代) — when children were seen, spanked, but not heard — there is a growing acknowledgement(虽然今天的父母不想回到维多利亚时代——那时孩子们被看到、被打，但却听不到——但人们越来越认识到这一点)可知，以前大人们对孩子不打扰。由此推知，这是一种自由放任的教育方法。A. Let it be听任，不打扰；B. Go for it追求它；C. Get it right把它弄好；D. Take it easy别急，慢慢来。故选A。‎ ‎【43题详解】‎ 推理判断题。根据文章第四段的He believes discipline involves firm but friendly teaching and does not need to involve punishment.
