Seeing your child’s anger can be especially uncomfortable. In order to relieve (缓解) this feeling, parents often encourage children to “stop crying” and say things like “It’s nothing to cry about.” It’s moments like those that plant the seeds of unhealthy anger, The “stop crying” parents are just doing what they were taught by their own parents, who were probably taught that by their parents on and on. However, we should learn how to create healthy anger in our kids. If a child never sees his or her parents express anger, he or she should never express anger, either. But if parents always express their anger loudly, their child may start to think of anger as something that is always frightening. The first thing you can do to create healthy anger in your children is to practice creating healthy anger in yourself. Once you’re better at experiencing anger and expressing it in a healthy way, you’ll be able to set a good example for your kids. Stopping kids from expressing their feelings is wrong. You may feel bad when you believe you are wrong. When children express their feelings and are told that it’s nothing to cry about, they come to know that they themselves are bad. We need to raise them in an environment where it’s safe to express feelings. Once you feel more comfortable with your own anger, you can teach your children why anger is a helpful feeling. When your kids express anger, help them know what it is that has made them angry. Why did it make them angry? How did it do that? Then, you can teach them that those feelings are never wrong and our expressions of feelings are in our control (在控制中). Anger is natural and normal (正常的), and it can be experienced and expressed in a healthy way. 21. Why do parents say “It’s nothing to cry about” to their children? A. To relieve their anger. B. To make them uncomfortable. C. To encourage them to stop crying. D. To plant the seeds of unhealthy anger. 22. From the second paragraph we can infer (推断) ________. A. expressing anger loudly is right, not wrong B. parents should get angry with their children C. parents have a great influence on their children D. children should express their anger like their parents 23. Parents should set a good example for children by ________. A. raising them in a safe environment B. stopping them from expressing their anger C. letting them know they are right or wrong D expressing their own anger in a healthy way 24 The writer thinks that anger is a kind of feeling that is always ________. A. wrong B. uncomfortable C. helpful D. harmful 25. What’s the main idea of the passage? A. Anger often makes us and our children uncomfortable. B. Parents should create healthy anger in themselves. C. Parents should create healthy anger in their kids. D. Parents should never express their anger. 【答案】21. A 22. C 23. D 24. C 25. C 【解析】 【导语】本文主要讲述了父母对孩子的影响很大，因此应该为孩子树立一个良好的榜样，为孩子创造一种健康良性的愤怒。 【21题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“Seeing your child’s anger can be especially uncomfortable. In order to relieve this feeling…say things like ‘It’s nothing to cry about’”可知，为了缓解孩子们的愤怒，父母就会对孩子们说“这没有什么好哭的”。故选A。 【22题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段内容可知，如果孩子从来没有看到父母表达愤怒，他们也不会表达出愤怒的情绪。但如果父母总是大声地表达他们的愤怒，他们的孩子可能会开始认为愤怒是一种总是令人害怕的东西。因此可推断父母对孩子有很大的影响。故选C。 【23题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“Once you’re better at experiencing anger and expressing it in a healthy way, you’ll be able to set a good example for your kids.”可知，父母应该以健康的方式表达自己的愤怒，为孩子树立一个好榜样。故选D。 【24题详解】 细节理解题。根据“Once you feel more comfortable with your own anger, you can teach your children why anger is a helpful feeling.”可知，作者认为愤怒是一种有益的情绪。故选C。 【25题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段“However, we should learn how to create healthy anger in our kids”及全文内容可知，本文主要讲述了父母对孩子的影响很大，因此应该为孩子树立一个良好的榜样，为孩子创造一种健康良性的愤怒。故选C。 B I hired a man to repair my old farmhouse. He met many difficulties on his first day on the job. A flat tire (漏气的车胎) made him lose an hour of work, his electric saw (电锯) didn’t work, and now his old truck refused to start. While I drove him home, he sat in silence. When we arrived? he invited me to meet the family. As we walked towards the front door, he stopped at a small tree, touching the branches (树枝) with both hands. After opening the door, he had an amazing change. He smiled and hugged his two small children and then gave his wife a kiss. Afterward, he walked to my car. We passed the tree, and I asked him about what I had seen him do earlier. “Oh, that’s my trouble tree,” he replied “I know I have trouble in working, but one thing is for sure: trouble doesn’t belong to (属于) the house with my wife and children. So I just hang it up in the tree every night when I come home. Then in the next morning, I pick it up again.” “Funny thing is,” he smiled, “when I come out in the morning to pick it up, there isn’t nearly as much as I remember hanging up the night before.” 26.

A 【解析】 【导语】本文主要讲述了一位修理工如何避免将工作上的负面情绪带回家的故事。 26题详解】 细节理解题。根据“A flat tire (漏气的车胎) made him lose an hour of work, his electric saw (电锯) didn’t work, and now his old truck refused to start.”可以推断出他一天的工作很不顺利，心情不好，所以他在车里沉默。故选C。 【27题详解】 细节理解题。根据“I know I have trouble in working, but one thing is for sure: trouble doesn’t belong to (属于) the house with my wife and children. So I just hang it up in the tree every night when I come home.”可以看出他不想把工作中的烦恼带回家里。故选D。 【28题详解】 细节理解题根据“He smiled and hugged his two small children and then gave his wife a kiss.”可以看出他对家人很好，没有对他们生气。故选D。 【29题详解】 细节理解题。根据“when I come out in the morning to pick it up, there isn’t nearly as much as I remember hanging up the night before.”可以看出他的麻烦不如之前的多，变少了。故选C。 【30题详解】 词句猜测题。根据“I know I have trouble in working, but one thing is for sure: trouble doesn’t belong to (属于) the house with my wife and children.

While both give you the pleasure of reading, the experience can be quite different. Many people prefer reading paper books because they are easy to buy from bookshops and comfortable to read. Paper books also allow readers to make notes easily. However, some books, such as dictionaries, can be heavy and are not easy to carry around. Compared with paper books, e-books are good for students in many ways. E-books can he stored in a reader (阅读器), which is much lighter. Many e-book readers also have a dictionary for you to check new words quickly! However, you can only get e-books online. Unlike paper books, you must read e-books on an e-book reader, a computer, or a smartphone. This adds extra cost. Moreover, our eyes get tired easily when we read e-books on the screen for a long time. Although more people will try e-books, I believe paper books will not disappear. In my opinion, it doesn’t matter which you use as long as it allows you to enjoy reading. 46. What books has the writer tried? _____________________________________________ 47. Why do many people prefer reading paper books? _____________________________________________ 48. Where can you read e-books? _____________________________________________ 49.

Pleased to be with you again. Reading plays an important role in our life and bring lots of fun. Reading helps us make friends because we can discuss what to read and share what we read with others. Besides, reading is a time of joy and peace. It helps me relax myself after a busy day. Moreover, reading opens up a whole new world to me.

Seeing your child’s anger can be especially uncomfortable. In order to relieve (缓解) this feeling, parents often encourage children to “stop crying” and say things like “It’s nothing to cry about.” It’s moments like those that plant the seeds of unhealthy anger, The “stop crying” parents are just doing what they were taught by their own parents, who were probably taught that by their parents on and on. However, we should learn how to create healthy anger in our kids. If a child never sees his or her parents express anger, he or she should never express anger, either. But if parents always express their anger loudly, their child may start to think of anger as something that is always frightening. The first thing you can do to create healthy anger in your children is to practice creating healthy anger in yourself. Once you’re better at experiencing anger and expressing it in a healthy way, you’ll be able to set a good example for your kids. Stopping kids from expressing their feelings is wrong. You may feel bad when you believe you are wrong. When children express their feelings and are told that it’s nothing to cry about, they come to know that they themselves are bad. We need to raise them in an environment where it’s safe to express feelings. Once you feel more comfortable with your own anger, you can teach your children why anger is a helpful feeling. When your kids express anger, help them know what it is that has made them angry. Why did it make them angry? How did it do that? Then, you can teach them that those feelings are never wrong and our expressions of feelings are in our control (在控制中). Anger is natural and normal (正常的), and it can be experienced and expressed in a healthy way. 21. Why do parents say “It’s nothing to cry about” to their children? A To relieve their anger. B. To make them uncomfortable. C. To encourage them to stop crying. D. To plant the seeds of unhealthy anger. 22. From the second paragraph we can infer (推断) ________. A. expressing anger loudly is right, not wrong B. parents should get angry with their children C. parents have a great influence on their children D. children should express their anger like their parents 23. Parents should set a good example for children by ________. A. raising them in a safe environment B. stopping them from expressing their anger C. letting them know they are right or wrong D. expressing their own anger in a healthy way 24. The writer thinks that anger is a kind of feeling that is always ________. A wrong B. uncomfortable C. helpful D. harmful 25. What’s the main idea of the passage? A. Anger often makes us and our children uncomfortable. B. Parents should create healthy anger in themselves. C. Parents should create healthy anger in their kids. D. Parents should never express their anger. B I hired a man to repair my old farmhouse. He met many difficulties on his first day on the job. A flat tire (漏气的车胎) made him lose an hour of work, his electric saw (电锯) didn’t work, and now his old truck refused to start. While I drove him home, he sat in silence. When we arrived? he invited me to meet the family. As we walked towards the front door, he stopped at a small tree, touching the branches (树枝) with both hands. After opening the door, he had an amazing change. He smiled and hugged his two small children and then gave his wife a kiss. Afterward, he walked to my car. We passed the tree, and I asked him about what I had seen him do earlier. “Oh, that’s my trouble tree,” he replied “I know I have trouble in working, but one thing is for sure: trouble doesn’t belong to (属于) the house with my wife and children. So I just hang it up in the tree every night when I come home. Then in the next morning, I pick it up again.” “Funny thing is,” he smiled, “when I come out in the morning to pick it up, there isn’t nearly as much as I remember hanging up the night before.” 26.

While both give you the pleasure of reading, the experience can be quite different. Many people prefer reading paper books because they are easy to buy from bookshops and comfortable to read. Paper books also allow readers to make notes easily. However, some books, such as dictionaries, can be heavy and are not easy to carry around. Compared with paper books, e-books are good for students in many ways. E-books can he stored in a reader (阅读器), which is much lighter. Many e-book readers also have a dictionary for you to check new words quickly! However, you can only get e-books online. Unlike paper books, you must read e-books on an e-book reader, a computer, or a smartphone. This adds extra cost. Moreover, our eyes get tired easily when we read e-books on the screen for a long time. Although more people will try e-books, I believe paper books will not disappear. In my opinion, it doesn’t matter which you use as long as it allows you to enjoy reading. 46.
