(2010•冀州二模)

“A very disruptive(擾亂型的) six-year old child kicked my legs and clawed at my hand,”said one teacher. “I broke up a fight and was kicked between my legs,”said another. Many people have heard stories like this.  But the situation is more worrying still and it involves parents.

Every child , regardless of the circumstances into which they are born,has the right to achieve their potential,regardless of their parents’ wealth and class.  And we recognize that, as a nation,it is a long way to achieve this goal.But rights come with responsibilities and what worries people is that we are in danger of neglecting the latter.

     Far too many children are behaving badly at school,even to the point of being violent to staff. This is terrible enough,but it is hard to be surprised since many children are just mirroring the behavior of their parents. Too many are starting school unable to hold a knife and fork, unused to eating at a table,and unable to use the lavatory properly. We are in danger of becoming a nation of families living separate lives under one roof. The bedroom, once a place to sleep,has become the living space for the young. Spending hours in front of computer screens, on social networking sites or being immersed in computer games, children and young people spend little time with their parents. Parents are unable to monitor just what their children are watching.         

Schools cannot right the wrongs of society and teachers cannot become substitute parents. Both parties need to work together. Parents must be helped and given confidence to take back control. They are responsible for setting boundaries for their children’s behavior and sticking to those boundaries when the going gets tough. They are responsible for setting a good example to their children and for devoting that most precious of resources—time—so that children come to school ready and are willing to learn.

1.In the opinion of the writer, what problem do people ignore?

A. The school violence.

B. The pressure of students’ learning.

C. The right to achieve students potential.

D. the responsibilities of the students.

2.The writer’s attitude to the behaviors of parents may be that of ________.

A. dissatisfied          B. unconcern     C. understanding    D. tolerance

3. The underlined part in Para. 4 may means__________.

A. parents and children live in their separate rooms

B. parents care little about children’s life at home

C. children don’t live with their parents in the same room

D. at home children live a different life from that of parents

4.What might be most suitable title for the passage?

A.      Children’s behavior at school is worrying people

B.      Parents expect schools to correct their children’s bad habits

C.      There is no point in parents’ teaching children at home

D.      Don’t blame teachers when it’s parents who are failing

(2010•江蘇模擬)

I am a good mother to three children. I have tried never to let my profession stand in the way of being a good parent.

I no longer consider myself the center of the universe. I show up. I listen. I try to laugh. I am a good friend to my husband. I have tried to make marriage vows mean what they say. I am a good friend to my friends, and they to me. Without them, there would be nothing to say to you today.

So here’s what I wanted to tell you today:Get a life. A real life, not a desire of the next promotion, the bigger pay-check…

Get a life in which you are not alone. Find people you love, and who love you. And remember that love is not leisure, it is work. Pick up the phone. Send an e-mail. Write a letter. And realize that life is the best thing and that you have no business taking it for granted.

It is so easy to waste our lives, our days, our hours, and our minutes. It is so easy to exist instead of to live. I learned to live many years ago. Something really, really bad happened to me, and something that changed my life in ways that, if I had my choice, it would never have been changed at all. And what I learned from it is what, today, seems to be the hardest lesson of all.

I learned to love the journey, not the destination. I learned to look at all the good in the world and try to give some of it back because I believed in it, completely and totally. And I tried to do that, in part, by telling others what I had learned.

By telling them this:Read in the backyard with the sun on your face. Learn to be happy. And think of life as a deadly illness, because if you do, you will live it with joy and passion as it ought to be lived.

1. It can be inferred from the passage that_____.

   A. the author is a success in personal life

   B. the author didn’t try her best to work well

   C. the author spent all her time caring for her children

   D. the author likes traveling very much

2.How did the author form her view of life?

   A. Through social experience.           B. By learning from her friends  

C. Through an unfortunate experience     D. From her children and husband.

3. By the underlined sentence “ It is so easy to exist instead of to live” in the fifth paragraph, the author really means that people tend to_____.

   A. make a living rather than live a real life

   B. work rather than enjoy life

   C. waste a lot in life

   D. forget the most important lessons in life

4. What’s the author’s attitude towards work?

   A. Do it well to serve others.

   B. Earn enough money to make life better.

   C. Try your best to get higher position and pay.

   D. Don’t let it affect your real life.
