 More surprising, perhaps, than the current difficulties of traditional marriage is the fact that marriage itself is alive and thriving(旺盛的). As Skolnich notes, Americans are a marrying people: relative to Europeans, more of us marry and we marry at a younger age. Moreover, after a decline(衰退)in the early 1970s, the rate of marriage in the United States is now increasing. Even the divorce(離婚)rate needs to be taken in this pro- marriage context: some 80 percent of divorced individuals remarry. Thus, marriage remains by far the preferred way of life for the vast majority of the people in our society.

  What has changed more than marriage is the nuclear family. Twenty- five years ago, the typical American family consisted of the husband, the wife, and two or three children. Now, there are many marriages in which couples have decided not to have any children, and there are many marriages where at least some of the children are from the wife’s previous marriage, or the husband’s, or both. Sometimes these children spend all of their time with one parent from the former marriage; sometimes they are shared between the two former spouses (配偶).

  Thus, one can find every type of tamely arrangement. There are marriages without children; marriages with children from only the present marriages; marriages with “full - time” children from both the present and former marriages; marriages with“full- time”children from the present marriage and“ part- time”children from former marriages. There are stepfathers, stepmothers, half- brothers and half - sisters. It is not all that unusual for a child to have four parents and eight grandparents! These are enormous changes from the traditional nuclear family. But even so, even in the midst of all this, there remains one constant: most Americans spend most of their adult lives married.

 By calling Americans a marrying people the writer means that ________.

  A. Americans are more traditional than Europeans

  B. Americans expect more out of marriage than Europeans

  C. there are more married couples in the USA than in Europe

  D. more of Americans, as compared with Europeans, prefer marriage and they accept it at a younger age

Divorced Americans ________ .

  A. prefer the way they live

  B. will most likely remarry

  C. have lost interest in marriage

  D. are the majority of people in the society

Which of the following can be presented as the picture of today’s American families?

  A. Which types of family arrangements have become socially acceptable.

  B. A typical American family consists of only a husband and a wife.

  C. Americans prefer to have more kids than before.

  D. There are no nuclear families any more.

Most children now chat daily either online or through their mobile phones. They are connecting to a huge number of other children all over the world. Some are shy “in real life” but are confident to communicate with others online; others find support from people of their own age on relationship issues, or problems at home.

Sometimes the online world, just like the real world, can introduce problems, such as arguments. Going online is great fun, but there are also a few people who use the Internet for offensive (冒犯性的) or illegal aims. Children must be made aware of both the good things and the dangers.

To keep children safe your management must cover the family computer. Just as you decide which TV pro-grams are suitable, you need to do the same for the websites and chat rooms your children visit. Remind your children that online friends are still strangers. Re-minding them of the risks will keep them alert (警惕).

Computer studies are part of schoolwork now, so it’s likely that your children may know more than you do. We get left behind when it comes to the latest gad-gets and the interactive areas of websites, like chat rooms and message boards, which are especially strange. The language of chat is strange to many parents, too. Chatters love to use abbreviations (縮寫) such as: atb — all the best, bbfn —bye bye for now, cul8er — see you later, gr8 — great, Idk — I don’t know, imbl — it must be love, kit — keep in touch, paw — parents are watching, lol — laugh out loud, xlnt — excellent!

1.The passage is meant for ______.

A.children

B.parents

C.teachers

D.net bar owners

2.Which of the following will the author probably agree with?

A.The Internet is no good for children.

B.The chat language is strange to adults.

C.Children shouldn’t chat so much online.

D.The Internet is a good place for children.

3.In order to keep children safe online, you’d better ______.

A.choose suitable websites and chat rooms for them

B.teach them to use correct net words

C.surf the Internet together with them

D.forbid them to use the Internet

Like many other high school seniors, I eagerly anticipate life after graduation. In less than three months, my belongings will be packed up and shipped to the other side of the country.

I had never imagined, in my wildest dreams, that I would attend college in Ithaca, New York. I had had my heart set on a university in California and of majoring in English.

Nearly all of my friends are staying in state, and I remember thinking to myself, when one friend said she would be going to college in Virginia: Why would someone ever choose to move away from California?

But by a twist of fate, I received a letter from Ithaca College, inviting me to apply for a program in communications. On a while, I decided to apply. What were the chances that I would be selected as a finalist? If I hadn’t applied, I would have always regretted not trying. Yet secretly, I hoped that I wouldn’t be chosen.

But, as things turned out, I was offered one of the scholarships. I also received admission letters from the other colleges I had applied to, all of which were California schools.

As I began to weigh my options, I wrote out a pro/con (利弊) list for each of my schools. I began to realize that my reasons for wanting to go to certain schools in California were based on considerations of comfort. It would be so reassuring to be close to my family and my home.

Then I began to think about the expensive tuitions (學(xué)費(fèi)) and class shortages in the California public school system. These issues were not likely to greatly improve in the next four years. Slowly, I came to the conclusion that Ithaca was the ideal choice for me – culturally, academically and financially.

Fear of the unknown should not be a reason for shying away from opportunities. It might be difficult to adapt to my new situation, but I am confident I have made the right decision.

64. What is the point of the article?

A. To introduce the advantages of studying at Ithaca College.

B. To tell readers what matters when applying to a college.

C. To share the author’s experience of choosing a college.

D. To compare the differences between Ithaca College and California schools.

65. The author decided to go to Ithaca College because ______.

A. she wasn’t accepted by any of her dream schools in California

B. she has a great interest in Ithaca College’s communications program

C. she was offered a scholarship by Ithaca College but not by colleges in California

D. she thinks that teaching and classes are better at Ithaca College than at California schools

66. Judging from the article, which of the following statements is TRUE?

A. The author had never thought of going to college in New York.

B. The author is independent and likes adventure.

C. The author believes it will be easy to adapt to college life.

D. The author applied to Ithaca College because Ithaca College is much cheaper than California      schools.

67. Judging from the article, what has the author learned from her experience?

A. That she must make good use of her time in college.

B. Not to let fear put her off something she wants.

C. That nothing we want in life can be achieved without effort.

D. Not to take any risks.

How often one hears children wishing they were grown up, and the old wishing they were young again! Each age has its pleasure and its pains, and the happiest person is the one who enjoys what each agc gives him without wasting any time in uselcss regrets.

Children is a time when there are few duties to make life hard. If a child has good parents, he is fed, looked after, and loved whatever he may do. It’s impossible for him to be given so much again in his life without having to do anything in return. Besides, life is always giving new things to the child. A child finds pleasure in playing in the rain, or in the snow. His first visit to the seaside makes him wild. But a child has his pains; he is not so free to do as he wishes. He is continually being told not to do this, not to do that, or being punished for what he has done wrong. His life is therefore not perfectly happy.

When the young man starts to make his own living, he becomes free from the rules of school and parents; but at the time he is forced to accept duties. He can no longer expect others to pay for his food, his clothes and his room, but has to work if he wants to live comfortably. If he spends most of his time playing about in the way that he used to as a child, he will go hungry. And if he breaks the law of society as he used to break the laws of his parents, he may go to prison, lf, however, he works hard, keeps out of trouble, and has good health, he can have the great happiness of seeing himself make steady pro-gress in his job and of building up his own position in society.

Old age has always been thought of as the worst age to be, but it is not necessary for the old to be unhappy. With old age should come wisdom and tile ability to help others with advice wisely given. They can have the joy of seeing their Children making progress in life; they can watch their grandchildren growing up around them and, perhaps, best of all, they can, if their life has been a useful one, feel the happiness of having come through the battle of life safely and of having reached a time when they can lie back and rest, leaving others to continue the fight.

1.The main reason children wish they were grown up, and the old wish they were young again is that ______.

A. both aren’t satisfied with the weak points at their ages

B. both enjoy the strong points at the other age by looking back or looking forward

C. the human beings should be like this

D. they don’t think both ages are acceptable

2.“Enjoy what each age gives him without wasting time in useless regrets” means ______. 

A. Enjoy what is given to him by people at his age, feeling regrets

B. Enjoy himself at his own age, feeling regrets for a waste of time

C. Make full use of the time he is given at his age instead of regretting having no achievements

D. Enjoy his own age and took down on the people at other ages

3.“Children is a time when there are few duties to make life hard” means “______”. 

A. Children shouldn’t be made to live a hard life

B. All the children won’t have to work for their own living

C. Children shouldn’t answer for the hard life they are leading

D. A child bas few duties to try hard to make a living for himself or for his seniors

4. According to the passage, what is a child’s greatest dissatisfaction? 

A. He thinks he has not got the equal freedom as his seniors.

B. He thinks he knows less about things than the older do.

C. He thinks it easy for him to do something wrong.
