02 Period Ⅱ Grammar and usage & Integrated skills Part Ⅱ 拓展阅读训练 1 Researchers from the University of Western Australia recently studied 3,000 middle and high school students. Among them were 618 teenagers with one parent who lived away from home for long periods of time because of work. The researchers wanted to know how the work of these “fly-in, fly-out” parents might influence the health of their children. A higher percentage （比例） of teenagers who experienced the long work absence of a parent had emotional or behavioural problems compared with those whose parents worked more traditional hours. This supports earlier research finding high percentages of emotional problems in teenagers who often returned to an empty house after school or whose parents were seldom at dinner. Findings also suggest that parents don’t have to be home all the time to be present in their children’s lives, but it helps to be home at certain times. And the best parental presence for a teenager may sometimes be like a potted （盆栽的） plant. 刷阅读理解 2 Many parents of teenagers have known this to be true and find ways to be present without trying to start a conversation. One friend of mine quietly does housework each evening in the sitting room where her teenagers watch TV.They enjoy each other’s company without the need to talk. Another friend usually accepts his daughter’s invitation to work or read nearby while she is sitting and doing her homework. Perhaps, that, at least for some families, is the best way for a teenager and his or her parents to stay close. In fact, many years of research suggests that children regard their parents as a safe base from which to explore the world. Studies tell us that young children quietly follow their parents’ movements from room to room, even while going on with their own activities. Perhaps our teens, like babies, feel most at ease when their parents are still around. They don’t want to stay away from parents who allow them freedom. A new school year is at hand, so as parents we could offer our teenagers a “potted plant”, as a gift, whose quiet and steady presence will give them a great day. 刷阅读理解 【语篇导读】本文是一篇说明文。研究发现，父母长时间不在身边的青少年有情绪或者行为问题的比例更高。研究结果还表明，父母不必一直在家里陪伴孩子，但在特定的时间待在家里会对孩子的成长有所帮助。作者鼓励父母给青少年提供安静和稳定的陪伴。 1.What did the study find about the 618 teens?( ) D A.They had more dinners with their parents.
