    Children for whom school has no point
    Many children do not go to school either because their parents want them at home as carers for siblings,or simply because their parents cannot be bothered to send them.Thousands more are not registered at any school at all,because of their families'unstable lives.
    Underlying this dreadful situation there are two central truths.First of all,the problem of children not going to school often has more to do with their parents than with the children themselves.Secondly,once children go to school,we need to make sure that the experience is a positive one so that they want to keep on going.
    In Britain,the Ministry of Education has introduced a complex package of sticks and carrots to persuade Schools to bring truants'and excluded children back into the classroom.It is paying grants so that a thousand schools can set up special units to help these children.Schools receive the grant if they bring a target number of children back to school;if they do not meet the target,the grant is withdrawn.
    Parents are the subject of this campaign,too:the Home Office has introduced fines for parents who fail to send their children to school,and has given the police power to pick up truants on the streets.
    Truant=a child who does not go to school when he or she should.

    Generation Gap A few years ago,it was fashionable to speak of a generation gap,a division between young people and their elders.Parents complained that children did not show them proper respect and obedience,while children complained that their parents did not understand them at all.
    What had gone wrong?Why had the generation gap suddenly appeared?Actually,the generation gap has been around for a long time.Many critics argue that it is built into the fabric of our society.
    One important cause of the generation gap is the opportunity that young people have to choose their own life styles.In more traditional societies,when children grow up,they are expected to live in the same area as their parents,to marry people that their parents know and approve of, and often to continue the family occupation.
    In our society,young people often travel great distances for their education,most out of the family home at an early age,marry or live or choose occupations different from those of their parents. In our upwardly mobile society,parents often expect their children to do better than they did:to find better jobs,to make more money,and to do all the things that they were unable to do.
    Often,however,the ambitions that parents have for their children are another cause of the division between them.Often they dis-cover that they have very little in common with each other. Finally,the speed at which changes take place in our society is another cause of thie gap between the generations.In a traditional culture,elderly people are valued for their wisdom,but in our society the knowledge of a lifetime may become obsolete overnight.
    The young and the old seem to live in two very different worlds,separated by different skills and abilities, No doubt,the generation gap will continue to be a feature of American life for some time to come.Its causes are rooted in the freedoms and opportunities of our society,and in the rapid pace at which society changes.

    Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?
    A:Parents should be more tolerable towards their children.
    B:The young generation should value the older generation for their wisdom.
    C:The generation gap is partly created by the older generation.
    D:The generation gap should be avoidable in American society.

    答案:C
    解析:
    文章第一段主要讲述了美国社会中所存在的代沟问题:父母抱怨孩子们不够尊敬和服从他们;孩子们抱怨父母不理解他们。实际上,该问题已经存在了很长一段时间。评论家认为代沟已经成为美国社会结构的一部分。由此可见,代沟是美国的一种特征。因此B为正确答案。
    由文章第一段倒数第二句话可知,代沟问题已经存在了很长时间。around在此处意思是“存在”,与in existence(存在)意思相近。因此D为正确答案。
    文章从三方面讲述了代沟形成的原因。由第二段第一句话可知,形成代沟的一个重要原因是年轻人必须选择自己的生活方式;由第三段第一句话可知,父母对孩子期望过高也是代沟形成的一个原因;由第四段第一句话可知,社会的快速变化也是导致代沟形成的原因。而文中并未提到现代教育使得孩子与父母想法不同的问题。因此D为正确答案。
    由文章第三段最后一句话可知,父母和孩子会发现彼此之间几乎没有相似之处。因此D为正确答案。
    文章主要讲的是美国社会中所存在的代沟问题及其形成的原因,并没有提到如何解决这一问题,因此排除A.B选项;而D项(美国社会应该避免代沟问题)文中也未提及.由文章第三段可知,父母对孩子期望过高也是形成代沟的原因。因此C为正确答案。

    练习1  Parents in China are always trying to help their children, even to make the most important decision for them, regardless of what the children really want, because parents believe it’s all for the benefit of their children. This has led to the result that the children’s growth and education tend to give way to their parents’ wishes. Once the parents decide to sign up an after school class for their children in order to increase their chance of being admitted to a good school, they will stick on their decision, even their children have no interest in it at all. In America, however, parents tend to respect their children, especially when making decisions. Perhaps it is commendable that Chinese parents lay much importance on education, but Chinese parents still need to keep the balance between the parents and children in the perspective of education as the American parents do.

    正确答案: 在中国,父母总是试图帮助他们的孩子,甚至为他们做重要的决定,而不管孩子想要什么,因为父母相信这样做是为了孩子好。结果,孩子的成长和教育往往屈从于父母的愿望。一旦父母决定为他们的孩子报名参加一个课外班,以增加他们被好学校录取的机会,他们会坚持自己的决定,即使他们的孩子根本不感兴趣。然而在美国,父母往往尊重孩子的意见,尤其是在做决定的时候。也许中国父母非常重视教育是值得称赞的。但是,他们应该向美国父母学习在涉及教育时如何平衡父母与孩子之间的关系。
    解析:
    本题考查的翻译要点有:①regardless of,即不管某种情况;②for the benefit of sb意为“为了某人好”;③give way to表示“屈从于”;④lay much importance on意为“非常重视”;⑤keep the balance between…and…意为“保持……与……之间的平衡”;⑥in the perspective of表示“在……方面,涉及……”。

    正确答案: While I think we have to talk about the issue critically. Firstly, I don’t think kids today are happier than before. Kids nowadays have to endure heavy bags and tight schedule and they also have to worry about many things for they have tremendous academic pressure .But they can attend many extra-curriculum classes(or interest classes )and learn many skills such as the piano, dancing and so on. I think they are a little burdened but I also think they are lucky because they have the opportunity to learn so much. Children in the past didn’t have so many chances to learn those things but they have less pressure.

    D.all of the above .

    答案:D
    解析:
    主旨题。全文介绍了饮食不规律孩子的状况,饮食不规律的原因,以及对此给父母的建议。故本题选D。参考译文:在当今社会,我们看到越来越多的12岁以下儿童饮食失调。据估计,九岁的儿童中有40%已经开始节食,我们也能够看到四五岁的儿童也开始表达节食的意愿。这么小的孩子就被剥夺了童年,真是一大憾事。为什么会有这么多的孩子沉迷于节食和减肥呢?我觉得这和家庭环境有很大关系,另外一个事实是,孩子们不断地接触到社会传递的“瘦很重要”的信息。家庭功能缺失的孩子饮食失调的风险更高。在一个遭受身体虐待或性骚扰的家庭中,孩子可能会转向饮食失调以获得“控制感”。他们无法控制自己的身体在虐待期间的遭遇,但他们可以控制自己的食物摄入量或体重。自我强迫的饥饿也可能是他们试图隐藏自身的方式,这样他们就不用再遭受虐待。如果儿童生长在一个不允许表达情感的家庭中,那么他们也可能会饮食失调,因为这是他们处理情绪的方式。被强制进食的孩子通常会用食物来帮助自身处理愤怒、悲伤、受伤、孤独、被遗弃、恐惧和痛苦的情绪。如果孩子不被允许表达自身的情绪,他们可能会成为情绪化的食客。此外,如果父母过于关注自身,孩子可能会转向食物寻求安慰。如果父母过分在意孩子的外表和体重,孩子也有可能饮食失调。如果父母一直在节食,并且对自己的身材不满意,那么孩子就会认为外表很重要。在一些家庭中,父母把婴儿肥误认为是真正的肥胖,可能会试图强迫孩子节食。这不仅错误,而且很残忍。作为父母,你需要为孩子树立好的榜样,这意味着你应该健康饮食。另一件要记住的事是,孩子们饿了就吃,饱了就停。如果孩子不想吃,千万不要强迫他们吃。太多的家庭强迫孩子留在餐桌上,直到吃完盘子里的所有食物。这样做可能会导致孩子讨厌吃饭,对食物产生厌恶。锻炼也是个人生活的重要组成部分,我们需要协助孩子们参与体育活动,这意味着父母应该自发参加健康的锻炼。帮助孩子找到他们喜欢的活动以及全家人都能享受的活动。他们应当被告知体育活动对保持身体强壮健康和的重要性,而不是被告知锻炼只是为了保持身材苗条。

    问答题
    Some people think that parents should plan their children's leisure time carefully. Others believe that children should decide for themselves how to spend their free time. Which opinion do you agree? Write a composition of about 400 words to state your view.

    正确答案:
    Childhood is a decisive period in the process of one's growth. Therefore, many people think that parents should carefully plan not only their children's school education but also their spare time. Other people, however, argue that children should have the freedom to plan their own extracurricular life. On balance, I would side with those parents who respect children's freedom and independence.
    If children have the freedom to make decisions on how to spend their spare time and develop their interests, they will gradually form a sense of responsibility and become more capable in the world. Take myself as a good example. My parents are like good teachers and helpful friends in my life. As I remember, they never excessively interfered with my life and always left enough freedom to me so that I could embark upon what I liked to do in my spare time. They quite understood that my weekdays were occupied with a heavy workload, and that only in my spare time I could have a change of pace. Meanwhile, although mutual understanding and tolerance were an important part of my childhood life, in no way does it mean that they spoiled me. They were austere teachers when I made mistakes, and helpful friends when I came across difficulties. Owing to their understanding, tolerance, guidance, and above all, love, I have grown up to be a person of self-confidence, optimism, and independence, ready to meet any challenges in my life. Without the free family environment that my parents carefully designed for me, I wouldn't have lived such a happy life.
    On the contrary, some parents expect too much of their children, depriving them of all their independence and freedom. These parents would rather sacrifice their children's interests and happiness for nothing but good scores, thus resulting in serious misunderstanding between parents and children. Some parents even went so far as to plan their children's schedule, filling every minute with study task. In this ease, children are deprived of happiness because they are bound hand and foot by endless homework, numerous exams and boring evening or weekend classes. Furthermore, having no freedom to plan their own life, these children are more likely to become introvert, heavily dependent on their parents when they grow up. This will definitely affect their growth. For one thing, since they have no opportunity to develop their independent thinking and explore their potential, they will find it very difficult to adjust themselves to the competitive society. For another, confining them in an ivory tower will make it hard for them to communicate with others. This will affect their career development in the future because the communication between people plays a major role in the workplace, and is one of the most important elements in achieving career success. Obviously, parents' excessive interference with children's after-school life, if carried to the extreme, can cause serious damage to both their happy childhood and their career in the future.
    To sum up, I believe that parents should leave enough freedom and privacy to their children with a view to cultivating their character. As long as parents allow their children the necessary freedom accompanied by careful guidance, their children will grow up to be independent, responsible and successful.

    解析:
    推断题。文中首段提到家长们主要是出于对子女的担心和关爱才disregard orders,而并非目无纪律,排除[A],也并未提及家长们不信任学校,[B]也可排除;根据文中第一段的内容,C项中家长的这种冲动去接孩子的做法会造成交通堵塞影响救灾行动,因此排除此选项;D项表达的意思可以在文中多处找到线索,如第一段中的 “...would disregard orders to evacuate and would rush to pick up their kids from school”, 最后一段中的“My first instinct would be to get them at all costs…I believe most parents would feel the same.”故本题正确选项为D。
