    第二篇

    The Privileged Children

    Life really should be one long journey of joy for children who are born with a world of wealth at their tiny feet.But experts on psychological research now believe that silver spoons can leave a bitter taste.If suicide statistics are a sign of happiness,then the rich are a miserable lot. Figures show that it is the rich who most often do away with themselves.
    Dr. Robert Coles,an internationally famous doctor,is the world's top expert on the influence of money on children.He has written a well-received book on the subject,The Privileged Ones,and his research shows that too much money in the family can cause as many problems as too little."Ohviously there are certain advantages to being rich,"says the 53-year-old doctor,"such as better health,education and future work expectations.But most important is the quality of family life. Money can't buy love."
    It can buy a lot of other things,though,and that's where the trouble starts.Rich kjds have so much to choose from that they often become confused.Their parents' over favoring can make them spoiled.They tend to travel more than other children,from home to home and country to country, which often makes them feel restless.
    "But privileged children do have a better sense of their positions in the world,"adds Mr Coles, "and they are more self-assured."
    Today's rich parents perhaps have realized that their riches can be more of a burden than a favor to their children.So their priority is to ensure that their families are as rich in love as they are in money.

    Which of the following statements is not true according to the passage?
    A:It is love that is always lacking in rich and poor families alike.
    B:Silver spoons can sometimes leave a bitter taste.
    C:Money can't buy everything.
    D:Rich children are often confused because they have so much to choose from.

    答案：A
    解析：
    从文章的叙述我们知道财富可以是恩赐也可以是负担，从第一段最后两句我们知道有钱人并非都幸福。因此选项D是正确的。选项A错误是因为有钱的孩子确实会常常旅游，但文章并没有说是否喜欢旅行。选项B错误：文章第二段最后一句说了钱买不了爱。选项C错误：第一段最后一句只是说有钱人最常自杀，却没说有钱的孩子会自杀。
    文章第二段最后一句提到财富会给人带来很多益处，但是最重要的家庭生活的质量却往往不是他们能享受的。因此选项C是正确的。选项A、选项B和选项D都不正确。
    选项B、C、D在文章中都提到过，只有选项A不正确。文章没有提过有钱人家和穷人家一样缺少爱。
    silver spoon是一个固定说法，并不真是指银子做的勺子，而是指财富，如 be born with silver spoon指的是“生在富有人家”。因此只有选项C是正确的。
    文章最后一句讲到“富有的家长们也意识到要让他们家庭里的爱同金钱一样多”，而且第二段最后也提到家庭生活的质量是最重要的，因此选项D是正确的。其他三个选项的叙述都是错误的。

  • 第15题：

    Passage ThreeQuestions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage.

    An understanding of man's effect on the balance of nature is crucial (关键的) to being able to find the appropriate remedial action. It is a very common belief that the problems of the population explosion are caused mainly by poor people living in poor countries who do not know enough to limit their reproduction. This is not true. The actual number of people in an area is not as important as the effect they have on nature. Developing countries do have an effect on their environment, but it is the populations of richer countries that have a far greater impact on the earth as a whole.

    For example, tropical forests are known to be essential to the balance of nature, yet we are destroying them at a great rate. They are being cleared not to benefit the natives of that country, but to satisfy the needs of rich countries. Central American forests are being destroyed for grassland to make pet food in the United States cheaper; in Papua slew Guinea, forests are destroyed to supply cheaper cardboard packaging for Japanese electronic products; in Burma and Thailand, forests have been destroyed to produce more attractive furniture in Singapore and Hong Kong. Therefore, a rich person living thousands of miles away may cause more tropical forest destruction than a poor person living in the forest itself.

    In short, it is everybody's duty to safeguard the future of mankind—not only through population control, but by being more aware of the effect his actions have on nature. Nature is both fragile and powerful. It is very easily destroyed; on the other hand, it can easily destroy its most dangerous enemy—man.

    31.According to the first paragraph, people usually believe that .

    A.poor people in poor countries contribute to the imbalance of nature

    B. rich people know how to protect the environment by taking actions

    C. people in poor areas know a lot about the birth control

    D. rich people in rich countries have done a lot to balance nature

  • 第22题：

    单选题
    According to the passage, which of the following is TRUE?
    A

    Poor pre-school kids have a larger vocabulary than rich kids.

    B

    President Obama believes that early education can solve all economic and social problems.

    C

    Rich pre-school kids have a richer vocabulary than poor kids.

    D

    President Obama’s education secretary thinks it is morally wrong to let kids start kindergarten early.


    正确答案： A
    解析：
    由原文第一段中的“...it is clear from research into vocabulary that youngsters from poor families enter kindergarten well behind those from rich families...Children from households on welfare knew 525 words by the age of three, while the children of professionals had mastered 1,116.”可知，贫困家庭的孩子在词汇方面要落后于富有家庭的孩子。接受社会救济的家庭的孩子三岁时只识得525个单词，而专业人士家庭的孩子三岁时就掌握了1116个单词。因此C项表述“富有家庭的孩子学龄前儿童掌握的词汇量比贫困家庭学龄前儿童掌握的词汇量要多”正确。
