Question

【題目】Today, we are told , children don’t spend enough time in the fresh air. Many of them are addicted to a screen either on a computer or a TV—they seem to be living in a virtual world. They have lost touch with nature.

But now 400 organizations in the UK, from playgroups to the National Health Service, are encouraging children to have some “wild time”. They want kids to swap at least 30 minutes of watching TV or playing computer games for time playing outside. Activities such as building dens, climbing trees, rummaging for conkers and playing hide and seek are just some of the things kids can do. Even if they live in a city, they can go on adventures in the garden or the park.

Children often need a helping hand from mom and dad. They need to be shown what to do and where to go. Andy Simpson from National Health Service says, “We want parents to see what this magical wonder product does for their kids’ development, independence and creativity., by giving wild time a go”.

So despite the complicated world that young people grow up in now, it seems that going back to basics and experiencing “nature’s playground” is what modern children need. David Bond from Project Wild Thing says, “We need to make more space for wild time in children’s daily routine, freeing this generation of kids to have the sort of experiences that many of us took for granted”.

This might sound a bit old fashioned to you or maybe, like me, it’s made you think about sticking on your boots, getting outdoors and relieving your childhood. There’s no age limit on enjoying yourself!

Answer 1

【答案】根據(jù)文章開頭總結(jié)概括文章A選項Wild time for children

【解析】如今孩子們大都迷戀于電視或者電腦，而在戶外的時間越來越少，他們失去了與大自然親密接觸的機會。在本文中作者提出鼓勵孩子有“wild time ”，去進行一些戶外活動，比如捉迷藏、爬樹等等。而且提出這些改變都需要父母的幫助。

【1】主旨大意題。文章開頭提出現(xiàn)在的兒童迷戀于電腦、電視而缺少足夠的戶外時間，然后在第二段提出“wild time”這一概念，由此展開行文，所以文章中心內(nèi)容是關(guān)于wild time，故A選項內(nèi)容更能體現(xiàn)文章中心，故選A。

【2】細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文章第二段作者提出的一些活動They want kids to swap at least 30 minutes of watching TV or playing computer games for time playing outside．Activities such as building dens, climbing trees, rummaging for conkers and playing hide and seek are just some of the things kids can do.可知D選項不是作者鼓勵要做的事情。

【3】細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文章第三段Andy Simpson 所說的，“We want parents to see what this magical wonder product does for their kids’ development，independence and creativity，by giving wild time a go”．可知戶外活動時間是對孩子們的成長有好處的，答案選B。

【4】主旨大意題。本段開頭提出，it seems that going back to basics and experiencing“nature’s playground”is what modern children need．“不管孩子成長的社會多么復雜，讓孩子們接近大自然都是現(xiàn)代兒童所需要的”，然后用David Bond的話進一步來證明wild time的必要性，由此可知A選項內(nèi)容更能體現(xiàn)現(xiàn)代兒童需要wild time這一中心，答案選A。

1 A【解題剖析】此題屬于主旨大意中的（1）一一標題類。答案需要理解文章后歸納文章中心。

【答案定位】根據(jù)文章開頭提出現(xiàn)在的兒童迷戀于電腦、電視而缺少足夠的戶外時間，然后在第二段提出“wild time”這一概念，由此展開行文，所以文章中心內(nèi)容是關(guān)于wild time。

【推理關(guān)系】題干What’s the best title of the text?文章內(nèi)容文章開頭提出現(xiàn)在的兒童迷戀于電腦、電視而缺少足夠的戶外時間，然后在第二段提出“wild time”這一概念，由此展開行文，所以文章中心內(nèi)容是關(guān)于wild time 概括總結(jié)給孩子瘋玩的時間標題
