A. loving B. observing C. understanding D. praising答案及解析： （“可乐” 解释）本文首先指出父母与十几岁的孩子之间存在矛盾冲突及其原因，然后是研究发现的不同父母对此采取的不同方法，有的方法较另一些方法更有效果，最后一段是心理学家对解决冲突的建议。1. D 由 not easy living with them (their parents) (孩子觉得与父母生活在一起不易 )与difficult to live with
10、 teenagers(父母觉得与十几岁的孩子生活在一起很难)可知，孩子与父母有“相似的”感受。(逻辑推断)2. B 由前两句，可知父母之间有“矛盾”，再根据 regarding untidiness and daily routine tasks(关于不整洁和日常事情) ，对照各选项，只有 argument(争吵)适合。( 逻辑推断)3. C 由前句的 untidiness 和后面的 clothes thrown on the floor 可知，房间是 messy(凌乱不堪的)。( 逻辑推断；也可将 untidiness 与 messy 看作是近义复现)4. B 由上文提到的收拾房间之类的事，
11、应是 housework(家务活)。(上下义复现)5. C 由后面的 not cleaning up their room or refusing to do the shopping 可知，这里应是dropping the towel in the bathroom，一起为 blame them 的原因。(逻辑推断，或词语同现，受责备的应都是负面的意思)6. A 由下句的 However, some approaches 提示，可知这里是指“不同的父母对待这些问题有不同的方法”。 (原词复现)7. D 从下面的例子可以看出，有的方法比别的方法更能“达到预期的目的(successful)” 。
12、下文中的 do better 也有提示作用。 (逻辑推断)8. A 指 yell at their children(对孩子大声叫喊) 之后，意为“但是后来又为他们清扫房间” 。(逻辑推断)9. A 改变孩子不爱整洁的 “行为(behavior)”。 (逻辑推断)10. C 据下文所举的例子“ 不帮父母去买东西”“在冰箱里就找不到自己最喜欢的饮料”可知，这是让孩子“感受到自己的行为产生的后果”。 (逻辑推断)11. D 在有了上述经历之后，他们就会 “重新考虑”他们的行动。( 逻辑推断)12. A 由下文中的 Communication is a two-way process 可知，此处填
13、communication。事实上，当完成第 13 空后，就基本上确定此题选 A 了。( 原词复现 )13. D 由 but 可知，要选与 lend an ear to(=listen to 倾听)相对的 talk。( 词语同现；逻辑推断)14. B 由 but 可知，要选与 understand (理解)相对的 scold(责骂)。(词语同现；逻辑推断)15. C 此句是强调结构，是对前两句的总结，一句是说要 lend an ear to(=listen to 倾听)，一句是说要 understand (倾听)，所以总结为“只有通过倾听和相互理解，父母与孩子之间的问题才可得到解决”。 (原词
14、复现) 第二节 语法填空（共 10 小题；每小题 1.5 分，满分 15 分）阅读下面短文，按照句子结构的语法性和上下文连贯的要求，在空格处填入一个适当的词或者括号中词语的正确形式填空，并将答案填写在答题卡标号为 1625 的相应位置上。Last year, my brother and I went to Miami for a vacation. Some of my friends who had been there before said_16_ was a wonderful holiday destination. Before we went, we had planned f

17、op floor. We had never stayed in such an amazing room, and we werent charged extra.The next day, my brother and I went to the beach _24_we watched some people play volleyball. We got a little_25_（sunburn ） ，but the day had been so relaxing that we didnt mind.答案及解析：（“可乐” 解释）本文是讲我和我兄弟去 Miami(迈阿密) 旅游，当
18、到达目的地后，来到六个月前订的宾馆，却意外被告知订的房间是下个星期的，且该宾馆房间已订满。正当不知如何办时，经理出来了，将他们安排在留出来的 VIP 房间，且不另外收他们的钱，这真是个意外的意外。16. it 在 said 后的宾语从句中缺主语，应填代词；指代前句中的 Miami 这个地方，应用it。17. earlier 在句中作状语，依然用副词；不变词性，可考虑用比较级；由时态 had made，可知是“ 早在六个月前 ”就订好了。18. were told 由句意或 tell sb. sth.这一句型结构可知，是 “我们被告知” ，由上下文的时态可知，用一般过去时的被动语态。19. bu
19、t 这是考虑 notbut结构，意为“ 不是为那个星期订的，而是为后一个星期所订的”。20. why /how 意为“ 我不知道为什么会发生这样的事/ 这是怎样发生的”，故用 why/how 引导宾语从句。21. for 因 chargefor是习惯搭配。22. surprisingly 因本句已有作表语的形容词 helpful，所以应当用副词来修饰形容词helpful，指 “令人惊讶地，意外的”，故填 surprisingly。23. the 特指“ 在顶楼” 。24. where 先行词是地点 the beach 且在定语从句中作状语，故填 where (=on which =and on
20、 the beach =and there)。25. sunburnt 在表示“变化”的 got 后作表语，要用形容词；sunburn 是名词。 阅读（共两节，满分 50 分）第一节 阅读理解（共 20 小题；每小题 2 分，满分 40 分）阅读下列短文，从每题所给的 A、B、C 和 D 项中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。ASamuel Osmond is a 19-year-old law student from Cornwall, England.

B 细节理解题。由第二段最后两句 “Samuel wanted to become a lawyer as it was the wish of his parents,but music teachers
32、told him he should study music instead. Now, he studies law and music”可知选 B，Samuel 按照父母的意愿是想做律师的，而不是做音乐家。因按父母的意愿是学法律，按老师的建议学音乐，故 D 错。28.

34、cold winter day. A woman drove up to the Rainbow Bridge tollbooth (收费站). “Im paying for myself, and for the six cars behind me,” she said with a smile, handing over seven tickets.

35、are.”It turned out that the woman, Natalie Smith, had read something on a friends refrigerator: “Practice random kindness and senseless acts of beauty.” The phrase impressed her so much that she copied it down.Judy Foreman spotted the same phrase on a warehouse wall far away from home.

36、d on her mind for days, she gave up and drove all the way back to copy it down. “I thought it was beautiful,” she said, explaining why shed taken to writing it at the bottom of all her letters, “like a message from above.” Her husband, Frank, liked the phrase so much that he put it up on the classro
37、om wall for his students, one of whom was the daughter of Alice Johnson, a local news reporter.

38、 was in a restaurant that Anne wrote the phrase down on a piece of paper, after turning it around in her mind for days.“Heres the idea,” Anne says. “Anything you think there should be more of, do it randomly.” Her fantasies include painting the classrooms of shabby schools, leaving hot meals on kitc
39、hen tables in the poor part of town, and giving money secretly to a proud old lady. Anne says, “Kindness can build on itself as much as violence can.”The acts of random kindness spread.

B. She wanted to show kindness.C. She hoped to please others. D. She had seven tickets.32. Judy Foreman

44、 to pay it back to the giver.答案及解析：31. B 细节推断题。第一段说 Natalie Smith 为其后面的六辆车交费，第二段交等了其中的原因，是她看到的 “Practice random kindness and senseless acts of beauty”这句话给了她深刻印象，由此推断，她是受这句话的启发， “想给他人施恩”，故选 B。32. A 细节理解题。由第三段第三句“I thought it was beautiful,” she said, explaining why shed taken to writing it at the bot
45、tom of all her letters 可知，选 A。选项 B 文中无信息支持，无中生有；选项 C“决定将其写在仓库墙上”与文中“ 看到离家很远的一个仓库墙上看到这句话”意义不同，张冠李戴；虽然文中有她老公将其写在教室的墙上，但并不是她要他写的，更不是她抄写这句话的目的，与事实不符。33. D 细节理解题。本题是问“ 谁想出这句话来的”，由第四段中的 “It was in a restaurant that Anne wrote the phrase down on a piece of paper”可知，是 Anne Herbert 想出这句话来的。可用排除法，Natalie Smit
46、h 是在朋友的冰霜上看到的，Judy Foreman 是在仓库的墙上抄下来的，Alice Johnson 是从她女儿那得知的，她女儿是因为 Judy Foreman 的老公将此句写在教室的墙上而得知的，故不是这三个人想出来的。34. C 推断句子意义。推断词、短语或句子意思，需结合上下文去理解。本段中先是Anne Herbert 解释她想出的那句话意为：你认为(生活中或世界上 )应该多一些存在的事，那么你就随意去做这样的事。接说着她想象中的这类事包括“给破旧教室粉墙”“ 在穷人区的厨房里留下热饭”等善举。那么该段结尾的话“善举和暴力一样可以在它们自己的基础上建立起来”，其真正的含义是什么呢？再
47、看看接下来这一段，特别是第一句“随意的善举是可以传播或蔓延”，可知“ 善举同暴力一样是可以自我繁衍的” ，故选 C。35. B 推理判断题。由最后一段的第一和第二句可以推知：受到恩惠的人很可能会施惠于他人，将恩惠传播下去。CLike many new graduates, I left university full of hope for the future but with no real idea of what I wanted to do. My degree, with honors, in English literature had not really prepared m
48、e for anything practical. I knew I wanted to make a difference in the world somehow, but I had no idea how to do that.
