17.Making Peace with Your Parents
As a teen,you're going through big changes physically and mentally.Your interests are increasing.(36)F Here is the challenge:Kids need to explore the world in new ways,and parents need to protect them from the dangers that are all out in that world.These conflicts can easily set off fireworks in otherwise calm houses.Sometimes conflicts can't be avoided.But by paying attention to the building blocks of successful relationships,you can work towards making home a happy and healthy place for you and your parents.
For instance,try to find a time to talk when your parents are not angry,tired,distracted or hungry.A good time to talk is when you're all relaxed.Timing is everything.If the conversation begins to turn into an argument,you'd better calmly and coolly ask to stop the conversation for now.(37)BListen to what your parents are saying,and repeat it back to them.This shows them that you're listening.(38)A.Respect is the building block of good communication.People who respect each other and care about each others'feelings can disagree without getting things ugly.(39)EHow do you build trust?Trust comes by actually doing what you say you're going to do.Some teens find that doing fun activities with their parents can improve their relationships.Sometimes we forget that parents are more than rule-maker-they're interestingpeople who like to watch movies and go shopping-just like their teenagers!
What do you do if you are trying your best,but your relationship with your parents continues to be rocky?(40)G You can find supportive adults,such as a teacher or a coach,who can lend an ear.Remember you can only change your own behavior.Your parents are the only ones who can change theirs.
A.It also gives them a chance to clear things up if you're not on the same page.
B.You can pick it up again when everyone's more relaxed.
C.And then you'll be able to accept what your parents say.
D.Faced with the challenge,children don't know what to do
E.You are more likely to get along with your parents and have more independence if your parents believe in you.
F.And your desire to take control of your own life is growing.
G.You may consider seeking outside help.

分析 本文論述了十幾歲的年輕人,有了更多的欲望,想自己獨(dú)立,必然和父母有分歧,本文給出了一些如何和父母和平相處建議

解答 36.F.推理判斷題.根據(jù)Your interests are expanding.可知興趣多了,自己的控制欲在增長(zhǎng),故選 F. 
37.B.推理判斷題.根據(jù)A good time to talk is when you're all relaxed.Timing is everything.If the conversation begins to turn into an argument,you'd better calmly and coolly ask to stop the conversation--for now.暫停爭(zhēng)論,冷靜下來(lái),就必須再找其他的時(shí)間交流,故選B. 
38.A.推理判斷題.根據(jù)Listen to what your parents are saying,and repeat it back to them.This shows them that you're listening.把父母說(shuō)的話再重復(fù)一下,父母就會(huì)再考慮一下自己的做法,故選A. 
39.E.推理判斷題.根據(jù)How do you build trust?可知如果你的父母信任你,你就更有可能和父母相處,有更多的獨(dú)立性,故選E. 
40.G.推理判斷題.根據(jù)You can find supportive adults,such as a teacher or a coach,who can lend an ear.可知你可以考慮尋求外界幫助,故選G.

點(diǎn)評(píng) 七選五閱讀是完成性閱讀,和完形填空很類(lèi)似,不同的是一個(gè)選詞,一個(gè)選句子.解題時(shí),要注意上下文語(yǔ)境,充分考慮信息詞(選項(xiàng)中和空格前后句子中相同或相近的詞),選出最符合語(yǔ)境的句子

8.A girl became a volunteer in the activities of Deathbed Care,which meant visiting and taking care of a patient suffering from an incurable disease with days numbered.
The girl was assigned to look after an old man suffering from cancer whose children lived abroad.Their living conditions were not satisfactory while the old man had a lot of savings.She was expected to comfort him and keep up his spirits.Every Saturday the girl came on time to keep his company,telling him stories.When he was having an intravenous drip (靜脈滴注),she would help massage his arms.The doctor found the patient much improved mentally.The old man began to involve himself actively in the medical treatment and he seldom shouted at others.
But something that happened made the doctor uneasy and puzzled.Each time the girl left,the old man would give her some money.The doctor did nothing to interfere (干涉),unwilling to offend the old man.A month later the old man showed evident signs of decline after suffering coma (昏迷) a few times.When rescued from the latest coma,the old man told the doctor his last wish,"I have deep sympathy for the girl.Will you be kind enough to help her finish her studies?"But the doctor knew that her family was well-off and she had no difficulty pursuing her studies.Sometimes she even came to the hospital in her father's car.
When the girl came at the weekend after the death of the old man,the doctor told her the bad news.She was very sad and burst into tears.Then she handed $ 500 to the doctor,saying,"The old man had all along thought I came to do the job because of poverty.He gave me money so that I could continue my schooling."Now he got the answer to the puzzle.In the last period of his life,the old man found it a real pleasure to be able to help a girl badly in need.

12.What is the first thing you notice whe you walk into a shop?The products displayed (展示) at the entrance?Or the soft background music?
But have you ever notice the smell?Unless it is bad,the answer is likely to be no.But while a shop's scent may not be outstanding compared with sights and sounds,it is certainly there.And it is providing to be an increasing powerful tool in encouraging people to purchase.
A brand store has become famous for its distinctive scent which floats through the fairly dark hall and out to the entrance,via scent machines.A smell may be attractive but it may not just be used for freshening air.One sports goods company one reported that when it first introduced scent into its stores,customers'intension to purchase increased by 80percent.
When it comes to the best shopping streets in Pairs,scent is just as important to a brand's success as the quality of its window displays and goods on sale.That is mainly because shopping is a very different experience to what it used to be.
Some years ago,the focus for brand name shopping was on a few people with sales assistants'disproving attitude and don't-touch-what-you-can't-afford displays.Now the rise of electronic commerce (e-commerce) has opened up famous brands to a wider audience But while e-shops can use sights and sounds,only bricks-and-mortar stores (實(shí)體店) can offer a full experience from the minute customers step through the door to the moment they leave.Another brand store seeks to be much more than a shop,but rather a destination            .And scent is just one way to achieve this.
Now a famous store uses complex man-made smell to make sure that the soft scent of baby powder floats through the kid department,and coconut (椰子) scent in the swimsuit section.A department store has even opened a new lab,inviting customers on a journey into the store's windows to smell books,pots and drawers,in search of their perfect scent.
29.According to the passage,what is an increasingly powerful tool in the success of some brand stores?B
A.Friendly assistant.
B.Unique scents.
C.Soft background music            
D.a(chǎn)ttractive window display.
30.E-shops are mentioned in the passage toB.
A.urge shop assistants to change teir attitude
B.show the advantages of brick-and-mortar stores
C.push stores to use sights and sounds
D.introduce the rise of e-commerce
31.The underlined word"destination"in Paragraph 5meansD.
A.a(chǎn) platform that exhibits goods       
B.a(chǎn) spot where travelers like to stay
C.a(chǎn) target that a store expects to meet    
D.a(chǎn) place where customers love to go
32.The main purpose of the passage is toC.
A.compare and evaluate
B.examine and assess
C.inform and explain   
D.a(chǎn)rgue and discuss.

7.My husband and I had been married nearly twenty-two years when I acquired Stevens-Johnson syndrome,a disorder where my immune(免疫的)system responded to a virus by producing painful blisters.Although my long-term evaluation was good,I,who had been so fiercely independent,rapidly became absolutely helpless.
My husband,Scott,stepped up to the plate,taking care of kids and cooking dinners.He also became my personal caretaker,applying the medicine to all of my blisters because my hands couldn't do the job.Needless to say,I had negative emotions,bouncing from embarrassment to shame caused by total reliance on someone other than myself.
I recovered from my illness,but I couldn't seem to recover from the thought that I loved my husband less than he loved me.This seeming distinction in our love continued to annoy me for the year following my illness.
Then recently Scott and I went on a long bike ride.He's an experienced cyclist; I'm quite the green hand.At one point with a strong headwind and sharp pain building in my tired legs,I really thought I couldn't go any further.Seeing me struggle,Scott pulled in front of me and yelled over his shoulder,"Stay close behind me."As I followed his steps,I discovered that my legs quit burning and I was able to catch my breath.My husband was pulling me along-again.
I pray my husband will always be strong and healthy.But if he should ever become the struggling one,whether on a bike ride or with an illness,I trust Ill be ready to call out to him,Stay close behind me--my turn to pull you along.
