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.According to the passage,children of rich families_______.
A:enjoy traveling
B:can buy love
C:usually commit suicide
D:are not always happy答案：D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4题：
单选题Which of the following is NOT mentioned in the passage as a way to build character in children?AStory readings and discussions.
BOsmosis.
CTaking every opportunity to teach character.
DRoleplay.
正确答案： D解析：
细节理解题。此题问的是塑造孩子性格的过程中所采取的方式不包括哪一项。浏览全文可以看出，只有A项“故事阅读和讨论没有提到”文中没有提到。所以选择A项。文中第二段提到“Of course there will always be learning by osmosis”，与B项相符。文中第四段开头提到“Our role as educators is also to look for opportunities to help…”，与C项相符。文中第三段提到“Allowing children to role play a situation”，与D项相符。 -
第5题：
单选题Which of the following main messages was conveyed in this passage?AAn inspiring idea to liberalize transpacific trade hinges on the courage of America and, especially, Japan.
BTPP is meant to engage and incorporate China, rather than constrain it.
CThe farming and health care industries in Japan would be severely affected by the TPP.
DTPP as a Washington-led sideswipe at China will win support in Japan and add to a more liberalized Asia-Pacific region.
正确答案： B解析：
主旨题，从全文来看，本文旨在说明要建立TPP，美国和日本需要作出不懈努力，特别是日本。文章在简单介绍了在火奴鲁鲁召开的“a summit of Asia-Pacific leaders”和“TPP”的优势之后，在第三段提到要创建“a wider TPP”还需要很长的路要走，作为创建者，Mr. Obama和Yoshihiko Noda需要表现出更强的领导力。之后文章分别阐述了日本和美国需要作出的努力。例如Mr. Noda需要协调党派之间和党内反对派，以及民众的呼声；还需要争取时间以便使日本神圣的“farming and health care industry”做调整。美国也需要作出相应改变，比如从文章倒数第二段可以看出，奥巴马必须忍受国内汽车工业联合会对于和日本贸易不公的抱怨，同时也要强调TPP意图“engage and incorporate”中国而非“constrain it”。但是相对于日本，“costing America little”。由此可知，A选项说放宽泛太平洋地区贸易的想法，源自于美国、尤其是日本的勇气是正确的。 -

CKids Country was taking shape in America when immigrants poured into the country.
DAmerica is more of Kids Country than any other countries in the world.
正确答案： B解析：
是非题。第四段第二句指出“America is the greatest country in the world to grow up in because it is Kids Country.”，从greatest country in the world to grow up in可知美国比世界上任何一个国家更称得上是一个孩子王国。因此选D。 -

DThe circumstances under which children punish harmful acts

第9题：
单选题Which of the following statements about scientists is true?AScientists tend to approach non-scientific problems in a more objective way than common people.
BMost scientists believe arts and literature are of little use and hence think little of them.

DAll scientists are totally in line with the government of their country.
正确答案： C解析：
细节题。由第四段前两句的设问可排除A项。尾段第二句列举了一个化学家轻视文学和艺术的例子，但由此得出科学家们都认为文艺无用的观点属于过度推断，故B项错误。由最后一段所举例子可知，并不是所有的科学家都完全为政府服务，故D项表述过于绝对，可排除。文章第五段倒数第二句指出，科学是看待世界的一种方法，这一观点之所以遭到抵制完全是由于同行间的妒忌，作者在尾句又解释了自己这样认为的原因，故本题答案为C项。 -
