In the forest, trees often give each other space to reach for the sky,a habit that humans can learn from when it comes to setting personal boundaries.
Next time you go for a walk in a forest or woodland take a moment to look above you. You might find that the crown(树冠)resembles a breathtaking umbrella with channel-like gaps between the tops of the trees. This phenomenon has been documented worldwide since the 1920s, and is called “crown shyness”. It happens when trees appear to give each other space.
Even when trees grow close together, they show a mutual (相互的)respect and offer benefits. This is true in the case of “married” trees -where a tree intertwines(缠绕)with one resistant to disease, it shares the advantages of its friend. Maintaining healthy boundaries help trees to maintain good health, manage resources and protect the forest as a whole.
When humans fail to respect boundaries, the emotional and physical resources of individuals,and the community can be affected. In this sense, a boundary is a conceptual border. It helps to establish where you end and other people begin. It means taking responsibility for only your own emotions and actions, not other people’s. You could think of your boundaries as a moat (护城河)around your castle, complete with a drawbridge that can be lowered or raised. As the gatekeeper of your castle, you decide who and what comes in and when.
Of course, marking out boundaries takes time, and some people might be unhappy about any changes you make. Establishing a clear line between you and the rest of the world, however, is essential for building the self-worth and self-care needed to function at your best in relationships.
4. What is “crown shyness”?
A. A crown with channel-like gaps.
B. A forest with umbrella-shaped crowns.
C. A behavior that trees give each other space.
D. A phenomenon that trees compete for space.
5. How does the author develop Paragraph 3?
A. By telling a story.
B. By giving an example.
C. By defining a concept.
D. By making a comparison.

A. The effects of ignoring boundaries.
B. The meaning of taking responsibilities.
C. The importance of setting personal boundaries.
D. The methods of managing individual resources.
7. What is the author’s attitude to marking out a boundary?
A. Favorable. B. Intolerant.
C. Doubtful. D. Conservative.
C
To understand the effect of ice melting around the world we first have to understand what an ice sheet actually is. Covering 5.4 million square miles in Antarctica (南极洲) and 656,000 square miles in Greenland, an ice sheet is actually a huge land of ice from the Ice Age. These sheets form in areas where snow that falls in winter does not melt entirely over the summer. This ice, home to different species of animals, is now melting at a rate that cannot support the life it currently holds.
Many of these creatures rely on ice sheets as land for resting, hunting and protection, yet as the size decreases, they are forced out of their homeland in search of other land on which to live. Often this means journeys to search for food and an imbalanced ecosystem happens when different species are forced together onto the coast.
Since the 1990s, the deer population has dropped by 56 percent — climate change has caused warmer temperatures over winter setting off rainfall instead of snow, which freezes more quickly underfoot and makes it harder to walk and search for food. In the summer, frozen layers of land melts and releases trapped diseases which bring death to animals. A similar situation has fallen on the polar bears who suffered a 40 percent population loss between 2001 and 2010.
Quite apart from these problems, the threat of sea levels rising if the ice caps were to disappear is approaching. If the Greenland Ice Sheet melted, the sea level would rise around six meters, and if the Antarctic Ice Sheet melted, sea levels would rise by around 20 feet. As a matter of fact, sea levels have risen about eight inches since 1880, three of which we’ve gained over the last 25 years. This seemingly small amount has already caused dangerous flooding, loss of farmland and more deadly storms.
While we’re still a long way from losing the ice sheets all together, we’ve already lost too much and if we don’t take climate change seriously now, we will certainly hit the point of no return.
8. What is an ice sheet according to the passage?
A. It is an ice world for animals to live on. B. It is a land of ice that covers all Greenland.
C. It is an area where ice never melts in summer. D. It is a large area of ice that exists for centuries.
9. The melting of ice sheets brings about the following effects EXCEPT .
A. a longer distance to search for food
B. a decrease in animal population
C. a larger amount of snowfall
D. the release of more diseases
10. What can we infer from Paragraph 4?
A. Sea levels are rising faster in recent years.
B. The ice cap will first disappear in Greenland.
C. All natural disasters happen due to sea level rise.
D. The Greenland Ice sheet will be the first to disappear.
11. What could be the best title for this passage?
A. Changes of Sea Levels B. Ice, Sea and Animals
C. Greenland and Antarctica D. Effect of Melting Ice Sheets
D
Throughout our daily lives, we have known plenty of people and will know more. But how can we tell if someone is worth our trust? In a paper published recently in the Journal of Personality and Social Psychology, researcher gave us the answer.
The researchers asked 401 adults from the United States to fill out a questionnaire measuring their guilt-proneness (内疚倾向) in different situations as well as several other qualities, and then play a short online game. In this game, Player 1 is given 1, which they can choose to give to Player 2. Any money given to Player 2 is then automatically increased to 2.50. Player 2 can then decide whether to keep all of the money or behave in a trustworthy way by returning a part of the money to Player 1. The researchers found more guilt-prone people were more likely to share the money with Player 1. Actually, in follow-up studies, guilt-proneness predicted trustworthiness better than other personality qualities the researchers measured.
Why might guilt lead to trustworthy behavior? The researchers found people who were guilt-prone also reported feeling a must to act in ethical (合乎道德的) and responsible ways while interacting (互动) with their partners in the game. People who are guilt-prone tend to avoid engaging in behavior that might harm or disappoint others. If they do something bad, guilt encourages them to try to make things right again.
Then, how can we use this research to ascertain whether someone is trustworthy? “One way to do this might be observe how they respond to experience regret,” lead author Emma Levine, assistant professor at the University of Chicago Levine, explains. Another way is to ask them to describe a difficult dilemma they faced in the past, suggests co-author Taya Cohen, associate professor at Carnegie Mellon University. This is particularly effective, Cohen and her colleagues have found, because it allows us to see if they’re concerted about the effects their actions have on others.
12. What did guilt-prone player 2 tend to do in the online game?
A. Keep all the money.
B. Share the money with Player 1.
C. Return the money to the researchers.
D. Spend the money on themselves.
13. Why might guilt lead to trustworthy behavior?
A. It encourages people to harm others.
B. It makes people feel responsible to act ethically.
C. It makes people want to disappoint others.
D. It makes people avoid difficult dilemmas.
14. What does the underlined word “ascertain” in the last paragraph mean?
A. Ask B. Express C. Describe D. Determine
15. How is the text organized and developed?
A. By providing background.
B. By making a lot of comparisons.
C. By answering the raised questions.
D. By analyzing effects of guilt-proneness.

My daughters are lovely and attractive. The 4-year-old has big blue eyes and always wears a smile. The 7-year-old’s long strawberry blond hair and sweet smile are already turning the boys’ heads. I love everything about these girls, and they know it.
But I try not to tell them they’re beautiful. My young daughters are totally innocent when it comes to the pressures of being a woman in our society. They know nothing about plastic surgery, diets, “feeling fat” models or eating disorders. We adults know all too much about such things and in the face of this distorted reality we tend to start telling our girls, as soon and often as possible, how beautiful they are.
I know this is wonderfully well-intentioned, and that we want to raise our girls’ confidence from the very start. Here’s the thing, though. We might think we’re building our daughters up by telling them that they are beautiful to us no matter what, but what we’re also doing is bringing the beauty pressure home to our littlest girls. The more I talk about beauty and looks, even in a positive way, the more I’ m conveying the importance of those things.
However, it doesn’t mean I don’t praise my girls. Instead of saying “You look beautiful!” I might say the more specific “Don’t you look fancy today!” or “Those colors go so well together.” It means that I treat my daughters not as my little dolls, but as real people who are developing their own sense of self and style. It means that they are in charge of how they look.
Naturally, I buy most of my girls’ clothes. But I don’t usually manage their outfit choices. My daughters can go girly with necklaces, or they can choose to give up dresses altogether. Of course we’ve seen some mismatching, but they own those styles. They never ask if they look pretty, and they walk with an easy confidence that has nothing to do with what I or anyone else will say about how they look. And that’s the spirit I want them to take into their teens and adulthood.
16. What do the author’s two daughters have in common?
A. Both like to smile. B. Both have blond hair.
C. Both like strawberries. D. Both have big blue eyes.
17. Why is the author unwilling to tell her girls that they are beautiful?
A. She expects them to face reality. B. She wants them to find it themselves.
C. She doesn’t want them to focus on looks. D. She doesn’t think they can understand it.
18. How does the author treat her daughters?
A. She avoids praising them. B. She treats them as her little dolls.
C. She is particular about their clothes. D. She pays attention to their unique styles.
19. What can be learned about the author’s daughters?
A. They are highly dependent. B. They are really confident.
C. They tend to take advice from their mother. D. They have a good taste in dressing themselves.

In the forest, trees often give each other space to reach for the sky,a habit that humans can learn from when it comes to setting personal boundaries.
Next time you go for a walk in a forest or woodland take a moment to look above you. You might find that the crown(树冠)resembles a breathtaking umbrella with channel-like gaps between the tops of the trees. This phenomenon has been documented worldwide since the 1920s, and is called “crown shyness”. It happens when trees appear to give each other space.
Even when trees grow close together, they show a mutual (相互的)respect and offer benefits. This is true in the case of “married” trees -where a tree intertwines(缠绕)with one resistant to disease, it shares the advantages of its friend. Maintaining healthy boundaries help trees to maintain good health, manage resources and protect the forest as a whole.
When humans fail to respect boundaries the emotional and physical resources of individuals,and the community can be affected. In this sense, a boundary is a conceptual border. It helps to establish where you end and other people begin. It means taking responsibility for only your own emotions and actions, not other people’s. You could think of your boundaries as a moat (护城河)around your castle, complete with a drawbridge that can be lowered or raised. As the gatekeeper of your castle, you decide who and what comes in and when.
Of course, marking out boundaries takes time, and some people might be unhappy about any changes you make. Establishing a clear line between you and the rest of the world, however, is essential for building the self-worth and self-care needed to function at your best in relationships.
4. What is “crown shyness”?
A. A crown with channel-like gaps.
B. A forest with umbrella-shaped crowns.
C. A behavior that trees give each other space.
D. A phenomenon that trees compete for space.
5. How does the author develop Paragraph 3?
A. By telling a story.
B. By giving an example.
C. By defining a concept.
D. By making a comparison.
6. What is Paragraph 4 mainly about?

【4题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段“You might find that the crown(树冠)resembles a breathtaking umbrella with channel-like gaps between the tops of the trees. This phenomenon has been documented worldwide since the 1920s, and is called “crown shyness”. It happens when trees appear to give each other space.”(你可能会发现王冠就像一把令人窒息的伞,在树顶之间有沟壑状的缝隙。自20世纪20年代以来,这种现象在世界范围内都有记录,被称为“王冠性羞怯”。当树木互相给予空间时就会发生这种情况。)可知,“crown shyness”是树木在生长过程中的相互给与对方空间的行为。故选C。
【5题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段“Even when trees grow close together, they show a mutual (相互的)respect and offer benefits. This is true in the case of “married” trees -where a tree intertwines(缠绕)with one resistant to disease, it shares the advantages of its friend. Maintaining healthy boundaries help trees to maintain good health, manage resources and protect the forest as a whole.”(即使当树木紧密地生长在一起时,它们也表现出对生物的尊重和好处。“已婚”的树就是这样——一棵树与一棵抗病树缠结在一起,它就分享了它的朋友的优势。保持健康的边界有助于树木保持良好的健康,管理资源和保护整个森林。)可知,这一段通过用“已婚”的树做例子来证明即使当树木紧密地生长在一起时,它们也表现出对生物的尊重和好处。故选B。
【6题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第四段“When humans fail to respect boundaries, the emotional and physical resources of individuals, and the community can be affected. In this sense, a boundary is a conceptual border. It helps to establish where you end and other people begin. It means taking responsibility for only your own emotions and actions, not other people’s. You could think of your boundaries as a moat (护城河)around your castle, complete with a drawbridge that can be lowered or raised. As the gatekeeper of your castle, you decide who and what comes in and when.”(当人类不尊重界限时,个人的情感和物质资源,以及社区都会受到影响。在这个意义上,边界是一个概念上的边界。它有助于建立你的结束和其他人的开始。这意味着只对自己的情绪和行为负责,而不是别人的。你可以把你的边界想象成城堡周围的护城河,有一座吊桥可以升降。作为你城堡的守门人,你决定谁进来,什么时候进来。)可知,这一段主要陈述建立边界的重要性体现。故选C。
【7题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“Of course, marking out boundaries takes time, and some people might be unhappy about any changes you make. Establishing a clear line between you and the rest of the world, however, is essential for building the self-worth and self-care needed to function at your best in relationships.”(当然,划清界限需要时间,有些人可能会对你做的任何改变感到不满。然而,在你和世界其他地方之间建立一条清晰的界线,对于建立自我价值和自我照顾是必不可少的,这些都是你在人际关系中处于最佳状态所必需的。)可知,作者对于人与人之间划清界限是支持的态度。故选A。
C
To understand the effect of ice melting around the world we first have to understand what an ice sheet actually is. Covering 5.4 million square miles in Antarctica (南极洲) and 656,000 square miles in Greenland, an ice sheet is actually a huge land of ice from the Ice Age. These sheets form in areas where snow that falls in winter does not melt entirely over the summer. This ice, home to different species of animals, is now melting at a rate that cannot support the life it currently holds.
Many of these creatures rely on ice sheets as land for resting, hunting and protection, yet as the size decreases, they are forced out of their homeland in search of other land on which to live. Often this means journeys to search for food and an imbalanced ecosystem happens when different species are forced together onto the coast.
Since the 1990s, the deer population has dropped by 56 percent — climate change has caused warmer temperatures over winter setting off rainfall instead of snow, which freezes more quickly underfoot and makes it harder to walk and search for food. In the summer, frozen layers of land melts and releases trapped diseases which bring death to animals. A similar situation has fallen on the polar bears who suffered a 40 percent population loss between 2001 and 2010.
Quite apart from these problems, the threat of sea levels rising if the ice caps were to disappear is approaching. If the Greenland Ice Sheet melted, the sea level would rise around six meters, and if the Antarctic Ice Sheet melted, sea levels would rise by around 20 feet. As a matter of fact, sea levels have risen about eight inches since 1880, three of which we’ve gained over the last 25 years. This seemingly small amount has already caused dangerous flooding, loss of farmland and more deadly storms.
While we’re still a long way from losing the ice sheets all together, we’ve already lost too much and if we don’t take climate change seriously now, we will certainly hit the point of no return.
8. What is an ice sheet according to the passage?
A. It is an ice world for animals to live on. B. It is a land of ice that covers all Greenland.
C. It is an area where ice never melts in summer. D. It is a large area of ice that exists for centuries.
9. The melting of ice sheets brings about the following effects EXCEPT .
A. a longer distance to search for food
B. a decrease in animal population
C. a larger amount of snowfall
D. the release of more diseases
10. What can we infer from Paragraph 4?
A. Sea levels are rising faster in recent years.
B The ice cap will first disappear in Greenland.
C. All natural disasters happen due to sea level rise.
D. The Greenland Ice sheet will be the first to disappear.
11. What could be the best title for this passage?
A. Changes of Sea Levels B. Ice, Sea and Animals
C. Greenland and Antarctica D. Effect of Melting Ice Sheets
【答案】8. D 9. C 10. A 11. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了冰盖融化及其影响,呼吁人们要认真对待气候变化问题。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段中的“Covering 5.4 million square miles in Antarctica (南极洲) and 656,000 square miles in Greenland, an ice sheet is actually a huge land of ice from the Ice Age.(覆盖了南极洲54万平方英里以及格林兰岛六十五万六千平方英里,冰盖实际上就是从冰川时代开始的一块巨大的冰地)”可知,冰盖就是一大片存在了几个世纪的冰地。故选D。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中的“Many of these creatures rely on ice sheets as land for resting, hunting and protection(很多这种生物依靠冰盖来休息、猎捕食物和提供庇护)”和第三段中的“climate change has caused warmer temperatures over winter setting off rainfall instead of snow, which freezes more quickly underfoot and makes it harder to walk and search for food. In the summer, frozen layers of land melts and releases trapped diseases which bring death to animals.(气候变化导致冬季气温升高,导致降雨而非降雪,雪在脚下结冰更快,使行走和寻找食物更加困难。夏天,冰冻的土地层融化并且释放出深埋的导致动物死亡的疾病)”可知,冰盖的融化会导致动物去更远的距离去寻找食物、动物数量的减少和释放更多的疾病,并没有提到更大数量的降雪。故选C。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段中的“As a matter of fact, sea levels have risen about eight inches since 1880, three of which we’ve gained over the last 25 years.(事实上,自从1880年以来海平面已经上升了约8英寸,是过去25年以来的三倍)”可推知,近年来,海平面上升得更快了。故选A。
【11题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段中的“To understand the effect of ice melting around the world we first have to understand what an ice sheet actually is.(为了理解全球冰川融化的影响,我们不得不首先理解冰盖事实上是什么)”以及下文对冰盖融化产生的影响的具体描述可知,文章主要介绍了冰盖融化的影响。由此可知,Effect of Melting Ice Sheets(冰盖融化的影响)适合作本文最佳标题。故选D。
D
Throughout our daily lives, we have known plenty of people and will know more. But how can we tell if someone is worth our trust? In a paper published recently in the Journal of Personality and Social Psychology, researcher gave us the answer.
The researchers asked 401 adults from the United States to fill out a questionnaire measuring their guilt-proneness (内疚倾向) in different situations as well as several other qualities, and then play a short online game. In this game, Player 1 is given 1, which they can choose to give to Player 2. Any money given to Player 2 is then automatically increased to 2.50. Player 2 can then decide whether to keep all of the money or behave in a trustworthy way by returning a part of the money to Player 1. The researchers found more guilt-prone people were more likely to share the money with Player 1. Actually, in follow-up studies, guilt-proneness predicted trustworthiness better than other personality qualities the researchers measured.
Why might guilt lead to trustworthy behavior? The researchers found people who were guilt-prone also reported feeling a must to act in ethical (合乎道德的) and responsible ways while interacting (互动) with their partners in the game. People who are guilt-prone tend to avoid engaging in behavior that might harm or disappoint others. If they do something bad, guilt encourages them to try to make things right again.
Then, how can we use this research to ascertain whether someone is trustworthy? “One way to do this might be observe how they respond to experience regret,” lead author Emma Levine, assistant professor at the University of Chicago Levine, explains. Another way is to ask them to describe a difficult dilemma they faced in the past, suggests co-author Taya Cohen, associate professor at Carnegie Mellon University. This is particularly effective, Cohen and her colleagues have found, because it allows us to see if they’re concerted about the effects their actions have on others.
12. What did guilt-prone player 2 tend to do in the online game?
A. Keep all the money.
B. Share the money with Player 1.
C. Return the money to the researchers.
D. Spend the money on themselves.
13. Why might guilt lead to trustworthy behavior?
A. It encourages people to harm others.
B. It makes people feel responsible to act ethically.
C. It makes people want to disappoint others.
D. It makes people avoid difficult dilemmas.
14. What does the underlined word “ascertain” in the last paragraph mean?
A. Ask B. Express C. Describe D. Determine
15. How is the text organized and developed?
A. By providing background.
B. By making a lot of comparisons.
C. By answering the raised questions.
D. By analyzing effects of guilt-proneness.
【答案】12. B 13. B 14. D 15. C
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。生活中,我们会遇到各种各样的人,那如何确定一个人是不是值得信任呢?科学家做了一个实验,发现内疚倾向性格的人更值得信任。内疚性格能驱使人的行为更加合乎道德,具有责任感。所以看一个人后悔时的表现以及通过让他描述一个两难事件,就可以确定这个人是否可靠。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“The researchers found more guilt-prone people were more likely to share the money with Player 1. (研究人员发现,更容易感到内疚的人更有可能与玩家1分享这笔钱)”可知,Player 2如果是个容易感到内疚的人,他很有可能和Player 1分享这笔钱。故选B。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“The researchers found people who were guilt-prone also reported feeling a must to act in ethical (合乎道德的) and responsible ways while interacting (互动) with their partners in the game. (研究人员发现,那些容易内疚的人在与游戏中的伙伴互动时,也感到必须以道德和负责任的方式行事)”可知内疚感让人们感到有责任以合乎道德的方式行事,从而会做更值得信赖的行为。故选B。
【14题详解】
词义猜测题。划线词所在的句子是问题,划线词后的内容是回答。根据最后一段Emma Levine所建议的“One way to do this might be observe how they respond to experience regret. (一种方法可能是观察他们对后悔经历的反应)”和Taya Cohen所建议的“Another way is to ask them to describe a difficult dilemma they faced in the past,… (另一种方法是让他们描述他们过去面临的一个困难的困境……)”可知,这两种方式都是在回答如何“决定,确定”一个人是否值得信赖,所以划线词“ascertain”和determine同义。故选D。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。文章首段提出问题“But how can we tell if someone is worth our trust? (但是我们怎么知道一个人是否值得我们信任呢?)”,下文是通过研究发现内疚倾向的人行为更加可靠,又从心理学角度分析了为什么内疚倾向的人值得信赖。随后推荐给我们两种判断对方是否可靠的办法。最后一段的回答与首段中的问题呼应。故文章是通过问答方式编排的。故选C。

My daughters are lovely and attractive. The 4-year-old has big blue eyes and always wears a smile. The 7-year-old’s long strawberry blond hair and sweet smile are already turning the boys’ heads. I love everything about these girls, and they know it.
But I try not to tell them they’re beautiful. My young daughters are totally innocent when it comes to the pressures of being a woman in our society. They know nothing about plastic surgery, diets, “feeling fat” models or eating disorders. We adults know all too much about such things and in the face of this distorted reality we tend to start telling our girls, as soon and often as possible, how beautiful they are.
I know this is wonderfully well-intentioned, and that we want to raise our girls’ confidence from the very start. Here’s the thing, though. We might think we’re building our daughters up by telling them that they are beautiful to us no matter what, but what we’re also doing is bringing the beauty pressure home to our littlest girls. The more I talk about beauty and looks, even in a positive way, the more I’ m conveying the importance of those things.
However it doesn’t mean I don’t praise my girls. Instead of saying “You look beautiful!” I might say the more specific “Don’t you look fancy today!” or “Those colors go so well together.” It means that I treat my daughters not as my little dolls, but as real people who are developing their own sense of self and style. It means that they are in charge of how they look.
Naturally, I buy most of my girls’ clothes. But I don’t usually manage their outfit choices. My daughters can go girly with necklaces, or they can choose to give up dresses altogether. Of course we’ve seen some mismatching, but they own those styles. They never ask if they look pretty, and they walk with an easy confidence that has nothing to do with what I or anyone else will say about how they look. And that’s the spirit I want them to take into their teens and adulthood.
16. What do the author’s two daughters have in common?
A. Both like to smile. B. Both have blond hair.
C. Both like strawberries. D. Both have big blue eyes.
17. Why is the author unwilling to tell her girls that they are beautiful?
A. She expects them to face reality. B. She wants them to find it themselves.
C. She doesn’t want them to focus on looks. D. She doesn’t think they can understand it.
18. How does the author treat her daughters?
A. She avoids praising them. B. She treats them as her little dolls.
C. She is particular about their clothes. D. She pays attention to their unique styles.
19. What can be learned about the author’s daughters?
A. They are highly dependent. B. They are really confident.
C. They tend to take advice from their mother. D. They have a good taste in dressing themselves.
【答案】16. A 17. C 18. D 19. B
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇说明文。作者的两个女儿很漂亮,都喜欢微笑,文章主要介绍了作者是如何培养两个女儿对自己外貌的正确认识的。
【16题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段中“The 4-year-old has big blue eyes and always wears a smile. The 7-year-old’s long strawberry blond hair and sweet smile are already turning the boys’ heads.(这个4岁的孩子有一双蓝色的大眼睛,总是面带微笑。这个7岁大的孩子有着长长的草莓色金发和甜美的笑容,这让男孩子们都为之倾倒)”可知,作者两个女儿的共同点是“两个人都喜欢微笑”。故选A。
【17题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段中“But I try not to tell them they’re beautiful. My young daughters are totally innocent when it comes to the pressures of being a woman in our society. They know nothing about plastic surgery, diets, “feeling fat” models or eating disorders. (但我尽量不告诉她们,她们很美。我的小女儿们在面对我们社会中作为女人的压力时,是完全无辜的。她们对整容、节食、“感觉肥胖”的模特或饮食失调一无所知)”可知,作者不愿意告诉她的女儿们她们很漂亮,是因为她想让她们少关注外表。故选C。
【18题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中“It means that I treat my daughters not as my little dolls, but as real people who are developing their own sense of self and style. It means that they are in charge of how they look.(这意味着我不把我的女儿们当成我的小娃娃,而是把她们当成正在发展自己的自我意识和风格的真实的人。这意味着他们对自己的外表负责)”可知,作者注重女儿们独特的风格。故选D。
【19题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段中“They never ask if they look pretty, and they walk with an easy confidence that has nothing to do with what l or anyone else will say about how they look. And that’s the confident spirit I want them to take into their teens and adulthood.(她们从不问自己长得好看不好看,走路时很自信,这和我或其他人怎么说她们长得好看没有关系。这就是我希望他们在青少年时期和成年时期所表现出的自信精神)”可知,作者的女儿充满信心。故选B。
