5.Our lives were supposed to be more flexible and family-friendly thanks to the technology at our fingertips.But in this age of BlackBerrys,recession pressures,working at home after hours and on weekends,family time may not be working out the way we thought.
    Busy parents who expected more time with the kids are Finding that more work hours at home don't necessarily translate into quality time with them.
    A new generation of parents needs to discover the meaning of"quality time,"researchers say."Personally,just given the life I lead,I think there is something to this idea of quality time-spending productive time with children vs.just being around,"says Peter Brandon,a professor at Carleton College.He says engaging or interacting with a child in activities such as reading or playing counts as quality time rather than"passive monitoring,"such as washing the dishes while the child is watching TV.
"This time with children pays off,"Brandon says.He notes that good parent-child relationships result in children being happier and more successful,including at school.
As parents struggle to be more availabie to their kids,new research on work and family  schedules to be presented Friday at the meeting in Dallas includes a study that shows parents'availability is on the decline because more parents are in the workforce.Although parents today may be spending more time on child care,they are less available overall.
     Working parents who spend less time with their children should try to make sure the time they do spend is communicating with them,vs.doing the dishes or spending more time on themselves,Brandon says"The trade-off is not necessarily taking away time from your kid,"he says"You're taking away time from other things".
71.The first paragraph mainly intends to tell us thatD.
   A.technology lets parents work at home
   B.parents are satisfied with their work

   A.some families are not experiencing quality time
   B.it's enough for parents to stay with their children
   C.parents enjoy engaging in work-at-home activities
   D.working hours at home can transform into quality time

   A.just,being around with children
   B.work time is separate from family time

解答 DACCD
71.D   推理判斷題.根據(jù)第一段最后一句"But in this age of BlackBerrys,recession pressures,working at home after hours and on weekends,family time may not be working out the way we thought"可知,大多數(shù)人用在家庭生活的時(shí)間有時(shí)候不盡如人意,家庭生活有時(shí)候不如預(yù)想的那樣(好).
72.A   推理判斷題.根據(jù)第二段中""第三段"A new generation of parents needs to discover the meaning of"quality time"可知,新一代的父母需要發(fā)現(xiàn)有質(zhì)量的時(shí)間,由此可以說明現(xiàn)在的父母沒有和孩子一起經(jīng)歷‘quality time'的經(jīng)歷.故選A.
73.C   推理判斷題.根據(jù)第三段"He says engaging or interacting with a child in activities such as reading or playing counts as quality time rather than"passive monitoring,"such as washing the dishes while the child is watching TV."可知,參與諸如閱讀和玩計(jì)數(shù)活動(dòng)中和孩子交流互動(dòng),而不是被動(dòng)的管理,即和孩子度過有質(zhì)量的家庭時(shí)間要采取積極的有教育意義的互動(dòng)方式.故選C.
74.C   詞義推斷題. 根據(jù)后面的"He notes that good parent-child relationships result in children being happier and more successful,including at school"可知,良好的親子關(guān)系讓孩子更幸福和成功,包括在學(xué)業(yè)上."pay off 意為會(huì)有回報(bào)的,指的是會(huì)帶來好的結(jié)果.",故選C.
75.D    推理判斷題,根據(jù)文章最后一句"You're taking away time from other things"可知,你最好把時(shí)間從其他事情上抽出來,后面的應(yīng)該是如何‘take away time from other things',故選D.

點(diǎn)評(píng) 解答細(xì)節(jié)理解題時(shí),一個(gè)常用的方法就是運(yùn)用定位法,即根據(jù)題干和選項(xiàng)中的關(guān)鍵詞從原文中找到相關(guān)的句子,與選項(xiàng)進(jìn)行比較從而確定答案;推理判斷題既要求學(xué)生透過文章表面文字信息推測文章隱含意思,又要求學(xué)生對(duì)作者的態(tài)度、意圖及文章細(xì)節(jié)的發(fā)展作正確的推理判斷,力求從作者的角度去考慮,不要固守自己的看法或觀點(diǎn).

13.I always avoid going on field investigations with the toxics team,unless it's absolutely necessary.it's not that I mind the hardwork,or am afraid of coming into contact with poisonous substances.What I definitely fear is quickly losing hope about the work I do.
Doing field  research with the toxics team,all  I see and feel  is filth-nothing else  Even  if I close my eyes,I can smell the smell of food processing  rotting organic waste from paper mills and chemicals from clothing manufacturers.
One morning,I went to investigate a discharged pipe to document and collect samples of pollutants secretly being emitted by a textile mill.I had to work with the utmost secrecy in order to avoid being discovered by the textile mill.
I dipped a long measuring pole into the large polluting pipe to measure the volume of polluted water being emitted.But the surface of the water,covered in oil and filth,made me feel as if to vomit.
All of a sudden,I felt someone hit me on my back.It frightened me so much that I almost fell into the water.I grasped the pole and looked behind me to see an old  man standing there.kept calm and said:"Yes,l heard that there's a kind of small fish living in this water,and it has medicinal  benefits."
The old man grew quite curious and replied:"That may be lf a fish can survive in water as dirty as this,it must have a lot of resistance.So it wouldn't be too strange if such fish had medicinal benefits."
It was clear that he was just passing by,so I answered:"Yeah,survival of the fittest.Fish that adapt can survive,just like us humans."
He kept talking to me and didn't want to leave.He wanted to see whether or not I would catch the small fish with medicinal benefits.

51.The text is mainly aboutC.
A.a(chǎn) research report about pollution
B.a(chǎn)n exciting experience of fishing
C.a(chǎn)n experience of doing research on pollution
D.a(chǎn)n unforgettable taIk with an old man
52.Which of the following is similar in meaning to the underfined word"filth"in the second paragraph?D
A.fish           B.textile            C.water              D.pollutant
53.What is the writer of the text most probably?B
A A newspaper reporter.B.A researcher about pollution.
C.A fisherman.D.A worker of the textile mill.
54.Why did the writer tell the old man he was fishing?C
A  Because he wanted to satisfy the old rnan's curiosity.
B.Because the old man was interested in fishing too.
C.Because he did the research secretry.
D Because the old man wanted to buy the fish.
55.We can infer from the last paragraph thatC.
A.the old man had found out the secret in the end
B.the old man wanted to catch the fish by himsetf
C.the writer might tell the old man the fact eventually
D.the old man was sent to watch over the writer.

20.As an English teacher,one of the most common problems I've found with my students is their lack of confidence with speaking,and difficulty in understanding native speakers.Another problem could be that a foreign language taught in schools can sound quite different to what native speakers actually use.
There are a few English words and expressions that I'd never heard until I came to China.The most common one in my experience is"How are you?I'm fine,thank you,and you?"
I appreciate that although this greeting is much too formal for everyday use-it's easy to learn and helps build confidence.However,it can be a hard habit to break.I've seen many parents correct their kids if they don't use that exact phrase,as if simply replying"I'm fine"would somehow be rude.In fact I'm banning my students from saying that in the classroom,insisting a simple"I'm fine,thanks"is good enough.
"Seldom"is another one that I find interesting.The first time a student told me"I seldom watch TV",my initial reaction was a stupefied look,followed by"Huh?"I then realized the student used"seldom"when it's more common for us to use"rarely."
I was just as confused when I first heard a toilet referred to as a WC (water closet),another English term I'd never heard of back in Australia.Of course,my students know the other names for it like bathroom,toilet,washroom etc.so to prefer that name is an interesting choice.
I don't mind that my students have substituted familiar English words with their own,far from it.It reminds me how creative they can be with not only their language,but with mine as well.It's healthy for English to evolve (進(jìn)化) and change and I'm happy to add these new words to my vocabulary.
One important lesson I've learnt is that textbooks can only help you so much.For further improvement you'd better practice with native speakers.
61.What does the article mainly tell about?C
A.Learning English needs confidence.
B.Native speakers are hard to understand.
C.Chinese-English has something different.
D.Chinese students are more creative.
62.The problem with the reply"I'm fine,thank you,and you?"is that it isB.
A.too long to remember                 B.not popular with native speakers
C.sometimes misunderstood              D.considered impolite by native speakers
63.The writer mentioned parents correcting their kids to show that in ChinaB.
A.speaking English at home has become a habit
B.the exact reply has been trained into a habit
C.some parents are not qualified to teach English
D.children don't always obey their teachers
64.It's possible for us to hear an Australian say"WeDuse the term‘D'for a toilet."
A.seldom;  bathroom                    B.rarely;  washroom
C.seldom;  WC                      D.rarely;  WC
65.What is the writer's attitude towards his students using Chinese-English?A
A.He's tolerant
B.He's angry.
C.He feels uncomfortable
D.He pays no attention.
