Answer the questions（根据以下内容回答问题）（6分） Letter A Young people are always told that they should make the most of their time, that they will never be as free again. So, my question is—why fill up all this free time with housework? Parents expect their children to get good grades, be good at sports, and be popular with other kids. However, there is not enough time in the day to do these things and then do housework as well. It’s not fair to expect teenagers to give up their precious time to do boring house work. Parents and children both have jobs. Parents’ jobs are in the work place. Their children’s jobs are at school. The only difference is that parents get paid and children don’t. Parents say that they make their kids do housework to teach them responsibility. But this is just a trick. Parents trick their kids into doing housework because they are lazy. Yours, Overloaded Letter B Both parents and children have jobs. The parent’s job is to go to work to earn money. The child’s job is to go to school. But we all get hungry. Someone has to cook the meals and clean up afterward. We all wear clothes that get dirty. Someone has to wash them, iron them, and put them away. Children work from 9 until 4. Parents work from 8 until 6. Sure, after 4 o’clock, children have homework. But after 6, parents have homework too. They have to do the shopping, go to the bank, pay the bills, and help their kids with their own homework! I think it’s only fair that teenagers help out a bit at home. They might not like it, but it’s good for them. It teaches them how to look after themselves. This is really useful when ______________. Sincerely, Overworked 55. According to Letter A, it is unfair for teenagers to do housework, is it? __________________________________ 56. How are parents’ jobs different from children’s jobs according to Letter A? __________________________________ 57. Who most probably wrote Letter B, a parent or a child? __________________________________ 58. Why does Letter B say it’s good for teenagers to help out a bit at home? __________________________________ 59. What can be filled in the blank at the end of letter B? __________________________________ 【答案】55. Yes, it is. 56. Parents get paid but children don’t. 57. A parent. 58. Because it teaches them how to look after themselves. 59. they live on their own 【解析】 【导语】本文是两封书信，主要讨论了青少年是否应该做家务。Letter A的作者认为青少年不应该做家务，因为他们的时间已经很紧张，而Letter B的作者则认为青少年应该帮助做家务，这对他们有益。 【55题详解】 根据文中“It’s not fair to expect teenagers to give up their precious time to do boring house work.”可知，让青少年放弃他们宝贵的时间去做无聊的家务是不公平的。故填Yes, it is. 【56题详解】 根据文中“The only difference is that parents get paid and children don’t.”可知，父母和孩子的工作区别在于父母有工资而孩子没有。故填Parents get paid but children don’t. 【57题详解】 根据文中“I think it’s only fair that teenagers help out a bit at home.They might not like it, but it’s good for them.”可知，“我”认为青少年在家帮点忙是理所应当。他们可能不喜欢帮忙做家务，但这对他们有好处，这封信中提到家长下班后有很多家务和其他事务要处理，还提到青少年应该在家帮忙，这种观点更像是家长的立场。这封信应该是一位父母写的。故填A parent. 【58题详解】 根据文中“It teaches them how to look after themselves.”可知，做家务教会他们如何照顾自己。故填Because it teaches them how to look after themselves. 【59题详解】 根据文中“It teaches them how to look after themselves. This is really useful”可知，做家务教会他们如何照顾自己。这对于当他们……时真的很有用，可推知空白处应填写独立生活方面的内容。开放性作答，结合实际，言之有理即可。参考答案为：they live on their own。 X. Writing(作文): 10% 60.

It was filled with bored, frozen passengers. As the train went into a tunnel, something unexpected happened. A little boy got up from his seat and put his hand on my leg.
