二、阅读理解、完形填空题(共5道小题)

41. Many parents are overwhelmed by the responsibilities that accompany child-rearing. Often, parents believe they alone are responsible for how their children turn out. Many parents believe that if they don’t do the right things, their children won’t become well-adjusted adults.

This misconception may cause the normal struggles that occur between parents and teens to take on exaggerated importance. Parents need to understand that although they are very important in their child’s life, other influences also are important. Peers, teachers, counselors and popular public figures also influence the developing teenager.

The teen’s growth toward independence becomes an issue when viewed by teens or parents as a struggle for control. For many parents, the method used to ensure that a child will grow up ‘right’ is to maintain control over many aspects of the child’s life.

Such parents may choose their children’s clothes, friends, hobbies and courses of study. As the children grow older, they begin to realize they can never grow into adults without assuming control of their own lives. Therefore, they begin to fight for control. They argue with their parents, defy them and demand control, which can lead to ongoing family struggles. For these children, the road to adulthood is difficult because both parents and children risk losing the closeness they once enjoyed. Both parents and teens can feel rejected and hurt by the behavior that threatens their relationships. Parents also are concerned about their children’s ability to care for themselves and make good decisions.

To some parents, defiant behavior is proof they must have failed as parents. The struggle is doubly

stressful when each person cares so deeply about the other.

Many professionals who work with parents and teens believe that parents’ own issues also contribute to the problems with teens. Often, the parents of teens are middle-aged. They may experience unrest, discontent, change and self-evaluation during middle adulthood.

For some middle-aged parents, the fact their children will soon be adults may be an unpleasant reminder that they, too, are aging. These middle-aged parents may try to keep their children dependent, despite the fact that their children are getting older and more independent. [共5题]

(A) teenagers’ defiant behaviors

(B) Who plays the most important role in teen’s growth toward independence?

(D) What will happen if the children fail to fulfill their parents’ expectations? 你选择的答案： C [正确]

(3)According to the passage, which of the following experience of parents may contribute to their problems with teens? [本题2分]

(A) Dissatisfaction

(B) Self-evaluation

(D) All of the above 你选择的答案： D [正确]

(4)As the children grow older, they may begin to defy their parents because ________. [本题2分]

(A) they try to get more attention from their parents

(B) they can’t fulfill their parents’ expectations

(D) they think they are more intelligent than their parents 你选择的答案： C [正确]

(5)Based on the passage, which of the following statements is TRUE? [本题2分]

(A) To maintain control over children’s life doesn’t necessarily mean they will grow up “right”.

(B) Whether children become well-adjusted adults depends on their parents.

(D) Children won’t behave defiantly if their parents fulfill their duties. 你选择的答案： A [正确]

42. Sometimes, when Tom Krattenmaker and his 16-year-old daughter, Holland, listen to rock music together and talk about pop culture – interests they both enjoy – he recalls his more-distant relationship with his parents when he was a teenager.

Today, the generation gap has not disappeared, but it is shrinking in many families. The old authoritarian approach to discipline is giving way to a more equal relationship. Instead of saying “Because I said so, that’s why”, more and more parents are willing to take the “Come, let us reason together” attitude.

The result can be a rewarding closeness among family members. Conversations that would not have taken place a generation ago – or that would have been awkward, on subjects such as sex and drugs – now are comfortable and common. These conversations made parents realize that children may have important thoughts or feelings that adults need to be aware of. And parent-child activities, from shopping to sports, involve an easy camaraderie that can continue into adulthood.

No wonder greeting cards today carry the message, “To my mother, my best friend.”

But family experts caution that the new equality can also have downsides – diminishing respect for parents and overindulgence of the children.

Many parents have started making decisions based on what their children want. They focus on making their children happy as opposed to guiding them most appropriately. Also an increase in guilt on the part of busy parents makes them less eager to spend time disciplining. Some parents even worry that if they tell their children no, or impose limits on them, it will hurt the children’s self-esteem.

Yet, parents who don’t set rules risk becoming ‘so powerless in their own homes that they feel out of

control and sometimes afraid,’ cautions Dennis Lowe, a professor at Pepperdine University in California.

He believes that parents – in their eagerness to keep the peace and avoid arguments – miss an opportunity to teach children how to resolve conflicts, rather than simply avoiding them. [共5题]

(A) Tom has an unhappy childhood

(B) today, generation gap no longer exists in many families

(3)Based on the passage, which of the following could be the result caused by the new equality among family members? [本题2分]

(A) Children learn to solve conflicts independently.

(B) Parents no longer put the family as their priority.

(D) Children’s self-esteem often get hurt. 你选择的答案： C [正确]

43. To Whom It May Concern:

My husband and I got married in 1965 and for the first ten years of our marriage I was very happy to stay home and raise our three children.

Then four years ago, our youngest child went to school and I thought I might go back to work. My husband was very supportive and helped me to make my decision. He emphasized all of the things I can do around the house, and said he thought I could be a great success in business.

After several weeks of job-hunting I found my present job, which is working for a small public relations firm. At first, my husband was very proud of me and would tell his friends, “My clever little wife can run that company she’s working for.”

But as his joking remark approached reality, my husband stopped talking to me about my job. I have received several promotions and pay increases, and I am now making more money than he is. I can buy my own clothes and a new car. Because of our combined incomes, my husband and I can do many things that we had always dreamed of doing, but we don't do these things because he is very unhappy. We fight about little things and my husband is very critical of me in front of our friends.

For the first time in our marriage, I think there is a possibility that our marriage may come to an end. I love my husband very much, and I don’t want him to feel inferior, but I also love my job. I think I can be a good wife and a working woman, but I don't know how. Can you give me some advice? Will I have to choose one or the other or can I keep both my husband and my new career? Please help.

44. Once in a television interview, I was chatting with the host about stay-at-home fathers. I made the point that one reason we’re seeing more stay-at-home dads may be that it’s no longer a given that a man makes more money than his wife. Many families now take earning power into account when deciding which parent will stay home.

At that point, one of the male crew members commented, “It should be the better parent who stays home.” A lot of guys say things like that. Usually it’s code for, “My wife（read: any woman）is the better parent.”

I was a stay-at-home father for eight years, so his declaration made me bristle. It implied that our family’s choice could only have been correct if 1 was a “better” parent than my wife.

I think men shoot themselves in the foot with this kind of thinking. When I began staying home my wife was the “better” parent: She had spent more time with Ry, could read him better and calm him more quickly. And given a choice, he’d have picked her over me. But as she was the more employable one, my

wife went out to work and I looked after our son.

Know what? Because of the increased time I spent with him, I soon knew Ry well, understood what he needed and could look after him more or 1ess as well as my wife could. Actually, the experience helped me unlock one of the world’s great secrets: Women are good at looking after children because they do it. It’s not because of any innate female aptitude----which I think is mostly learned anyway. It’s because they put in the time and attention required to become good at the job.

Women obviously get a biological head start from giving birth and nursing. But over the long term experience is more important. When I got the experience myself, I was good, too. As good? I don’t know. Who cares? Children are not made of glass. Other people are capable of looking after them besides Mom. [共5题]

45. On a windy March morning when my children were young, I took them down to an open field to fly a kite. Seeing their excitement as the kite __(1)__ over the treetops, I wondered how I would feel when the day came that they yearned for their own freedom.
