根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容，從短文后的選項中選出能填入空白處的最佳選項。選項中有兩項為多余選項。

As children grow, so does their desire to become independent. 1. . As parents, our job is to find the right balance between kids’ desire for independence and the need to keep kids safe.

Kids need to be allowed, in fact encouraged; they like to be given certain risks. 2. . The right risk level for your child will depend on their age, developmental level, and character. It will change over time, and there are few hard and fast rules that apply to every child.

3. Every time you put your kids in the car you are putting them at risk. It is a fact of life.

So what is a parent to do ? We must encourage them to explore their world while setting clear limits where safety is an issue. 4. . We must let them run, but be prepared to catch them when they fall. We can’t take their steps for them; we can only point out the path.

It’s hard to imagine when they are small, but someday very soon they will be walking , riding a bike, even driving ! 5. .

A. Children do not often want to become independent.

B. It is impossible for any of us to live completely risk-free.

C. The goal for parents is to determine how much risk is appropriate.

D. Often they will become more willing to take risks and try new things.

E. Sometimes it is really tough for parents to encourage their children to be independent.

F. Someday they must face the world without us, and part of our job is to prepare them for that.

G. If we are overprotective, they are likely to grow up ill-prepared to meet and overcome the challenges they must inevitably(不可避免地) face.

Throughout the world, boys and girls prefer to play with different types of toys. Boys typically like to play with cars and trucks, while girls typically choose to play with dolls. Why is this? A traditional sociological explanation is that boys and girls are socialized and encouraged to play with different types of toys by their parents, peers, and the “society”. Growing scientific evidence suggests, however, that boys’ and girls’ toy preferences may have a biological origin.

In 2002, Gerianne M. Alexander of Texas A&M University and Melissa Hines of City University in London surprised the scientific world by showing that monkeys showed the same sex typical toy preferences as humans. In the study, Alexander and Hines gave two masculine toys (a ball and a police car), two feminine toys (a soft doll and a cooking pot), and two neutral(中性的) toys (a picture book and a stuffed dog) to 44 male and 44 female monkeys. They then assessed the monkeys’ preference for each toy by measuring how much time they spent with each. Their data showed that male monkeys showed significantly（顯著地） greater interest in the masculine toys, and the female monkeys showed significantly greater interest in the feminine toys. The two sexes did not differ in their preference for the neutral toys.

If children’s toy preferences were largely formed by gender socialization, as traditional sociologists’ claim, in which their parents give “gender appropriate” toys to boys and girls, how can these male and female monkeys have the same preferences as boys and girls？They were never socialized by humans, and they had never seen these toys before in their lives.

1.Traditional sociologists believe boys’ and girls’ toy preferences ________.

A. are passed down from their parents

B. have a biological origin

C. have nothing to do with gender socialization

D. are largely formed in later life

2.The study by Alexander and Hines shows that monkeys________.

A. also play toys as humans do

B. also have a sex typical toy preference

C. have no toy preferences

D. like to play different toys at different time

3.Alexander and Hines carried out the study to ________.

A. find out why boys and girls prefer different toys

B. test the intelligence of monkeys

C. test whether monkeys like to play toys

D. find more evidence for traditional sociology

4.Masculine toys are mainly intended for________.

A. monkeys B. adult C. boys D. girls

More than half of rich Americans have not shown their full wealth to their children, a new survey showed last Tuesday.

The survey, published by the Bank of America, studied the rich with $ 3 million or more in assets．It found that “surprisingly few of those surveyed have well-developed plans to preserve and pass on their assets to their children”.

The majority of the 457 people surveyed are self-made, first-generation rich．Fifty-two percent of parents have chosen not to tell their children just how wealthy they are, and 15 percent have given away nothing about the family wealth．One in their parents said they had never thought to do it.

They are worried that their children would become lazy, spend money freely, make bad decisions and even become a target for gold diggers.

Only 34 percent strongly agreed that t heir children would be able to handle any inheritance(遺產(chǎn)) they plan to leave them.

“There is an expectation about the wealthy parents that they have a responsibility to pass down their fortune to the next generation,” said Sallie Krawcheck, president of the Bank of America Globai Wealth and Investment Management．“Our research, however, uncovered changing views of what one generation owes the next.”

The trend is led by the world’s richest man Bill Gates, who promised in 2008 that he would leave his $58 billion fortune to the charity started by him and his wife, the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation(基金會), and not to his children.

“We want to give it back to society in the way that it will have the most positive impact,” he said.

Of his plans for his children, Gates said: “I will give the kids some money but not a meaningful percentage… they will need to work but they will feel reasonably taken care of.”

1.We can learn from the passage that .

A．rich parents may not know how to manage their inheritance

B．rich parents don’t equal rich kids, at least in the US

C．American children don’t get to inherit their parents’ wealth

D．poor children don’t expect themselves to be as rich as their parents

2.According to the survey, most rich Americans .

A．think they owe their children nothing

B．think it best to give their money back to society

C．doubt their children’s ability to handle wealth

D．a(chǎn)re confident of their children’s ability to handle wealth

3.From the last paragraph, we can see that Bill Gates wants to show .

A．the trend of leaving no inheritance to children

B．the positive impact of charity on society

C．the way of giving back to society

D．the importance of independence for children

In the face of tragedy，you must of course let yourself feel: Cry without holding back, shake with fear, yell out in anger, accept and follow your feelings．This is part of the wise approach to tragedy: The Upward Path — the feeling of emotions, the acceptance of them, and the coupling of the emotional mind with wisdom．Along this path, you'll take the experience — no matter how sad or upsetting — as a learning event, just as a11 other points on your journey will prove to be．While tragic, you must recognize this is still a chance for all involved to grow．You should let both sadness and joy, fear and courage, dark and light fill your world, and learn to find your steady, calm center in the midst of the opposing forces．This is the Upward Path．Use the event as a chance to gain balance and discover wisdom — the wisdom of love and of letting go, of non-attachment and non-resistance, and using this experience to eventually help others in need of guidance.

Being able to relate to others who have also experienced tragedy and inspire in them hope — of recovery, and of moving forward — is perhaps the greatest gift you can receive from tragedy．Turn the negative into positive, the pain into connection．After you've taken appropriate time to be sad, to feel your own pain, you should make it your work，your goal, your purpose to connect with others who need help．Show them how you've experienced feelings, achieved balance，and gained wisdom that you would never have otherwise had the chance to learn.

FEEL, but do not FEED on tragedy．Rather, let it inspire you to go beyond the person who you were before．With demise comes renewal, so let this loss be also your rebirth．No matter how hopeless it seems, no matter how difficult this becomes, you have the power to transform yourself into someone greater than you ever knew you could be.

1.When following the Upward Path, the person facing tragedy should _______.

A．free his emotions

B．hold back his feelings

C．fill his world with positive ideas

D．give in to tragedy and all opposing forces

2.According to the author， the greatest gift one gets from tragedy is being able to _______.

A．seek solutions from others

B．forgive others and move on

C．stay calm and resist change

D．understand and help others

3.The purpose of the passage is to _______.

A．a(chǎn)nalyze the causes of tragedy

B．suggest a way of dealing with tragedy

C．tell people how to prevent tragedy

D．encourage people to build friendship after tragedy

科目：高中英語 來源：2015-2016學(xué)年四川成都七中高二10月月考英語試卷（解析版） 題型：閱讀理解

I’ve been living in China for a while — long enough to observe the long-term deterioration (退化)of my own native language abilities, as well as those of my fellow English speakers. This deterioration can take different forms, one of which is the non-standard usage of the words. Its source is, specifically, Chinese culture, and its target is native English speakers. Below I give some of the common ways that the Chinese environment strikes down the native speaker’s linguistic competence (語言能力) .

Net bar: In Chinese, they’re called “網(wǎng)吧”, This is fine. We generally call them “Internet café” in English. The Chinese seem to think that “網(wǎng)吧” should be translated as “net bar” in English, and many careless foreigners have even been misled by this idea.

Name card: In the English-speaking world, business people have lots of business meetings to discuss business. On these occasions, business people exchange specially printed pieces of paper known as business cards. In China everyone calls them “name cards”, because in Chinese they are called “名片” and “name card” is a more direct translation .

Bean curd. It’s called “tofu,” OK! This English word comes from Chinese. I know all dictionaries sold in China will tell you “豆腐” is “bean curd” in English and that may represent the two characters nicely, but “bean curd” is more a definition than a comfortable translation. And yet some foreigners start saying “bean curd” rather than tofu. Deplorable (可悲的)！

I think you see the pattern. The normal native way of saying something is replaced by a more unnatural way of saying it using other English words.

If you’ve been living in China for a while and find yourself using all of these, you might be on dangerous ground. You’re going to start making a fool of yourself back home. Look out! Resist Chinglish attempts at destroying your own command of your mother tongue!

1.Which of the following expressions is more native?

A．Bean curd B．Tofu C．Name card D．Net bar

2.How does the writer support his main idea?

A．By comparison B．By examples

C．By reasoning D．By refutation (反駁)

3.What is the main cause of the non-standard usage of the words by native English speakers?

A．Chinese culture

B．Chinese tradition

C．English flexibility(靈活性)

D．Chinese polluted environment

4.The mentioned Chinglish words are created in the way ________.

A．that is generally accepted by native English speakers

B．that is often misunderstood by native English speakers

C．that sounds reasonable to native English speakers

D．that sounds natural to some Chinese
