Passage 1
A.回答问题
Should children do housework? Different people have different ideas. A few parents will say that their children are too busy with homework. Many parents ask them to do housework, but in fact few children do it.
That’s a problem. Housework is good for kids. Sharing a part of housework helps children develop an awareness (意识) of the needs of others. One study found that those successful young people took part in housework tasks at the age of 3 or 4. They early shared responsibilities (责任) and it helped them develop a sense of responsibility in other areas of their lives.
Although housework helps a lot, few kids are doing much around the house. In a survey of 1,000 American adults, 82 percent of them have done normal housework when they grow up. But only 56 percent of the adults said they asked children to do housework.
What should you do to get children do housework? Accept no excuses (借口). Because sports and homework are not the reasons for not doing housework. Don’t worry if you must repeat (重复) yourself again and again. Can a payment help? Maybe. But if you’re trying to teach kids to share the responsibility of a home, paying them for normal housework is not the right choice.
1.Why is housework good for kids?
2.How many American adults in the survey have done normal housework when they grow up?
3.What excuses do children use for not doing housework according to paragraph 4?
4.Should parents pay children for doing housework according to the passage?
5.Do you do housework at home? What do you do?
B.书面表达 请根据要求完成短文写作。

A Helper of My Family
【答案】1.Because sharing a part of housework helps children develop an awareness of the needs of others. 2.820 American adults in the survey have done normal housework when they grow up./820. 3.Children use excuses like sports or homework (for not doing housework)./Sports or homework. 4.No(, they shouldn’t). 5.Yes, I do.

例文
A Helper of My Family
I am a good helper of my family. I always help my parents do housework at home. Every day I make the bed and help sweep the floor.
Last month, we had a big party for the Spring Festival. The next morning, I got up when my parents were still sleeping. It was such a mess in the house. I decided to clean the house instead of waiting for my parents to clean up. I made a plan of all the things that need doing. Then I did them one by one in order. When my parents woke up, they couldn’t believe their eyes. They were so surprised at the tidy and clean house.
I think it is necessary for us to share housework. The more housework we do, the more independent we will be.
【导语】本文主要讨论了孩子是否应该做家务以及做家务对孩子的好处。
1.根据“Housework is good for kids. Sharing a part of housework helps children develop an awareness of the needs of others. One study found that those successful young people took part in housework tasks at the age of 3 or 4. They early shared responsibilities and it helped them develop a sense of responsibility in other areas of their lives.”可知,家务对孩子有好处,因为它帮助他们发展对他人的需求意识,并在生活的其他领域培养责任感。故填Because sharing a part of housework helps children develop an awareness of the needs of others.
2.根据“In a survey of 1,000 American adults, 82 percent of them have done normal housework when they grow up.”可知,82%的美国成年人在成长过程中做过正常的家务。故填820 American adults in the survey have done normal housework when they grow up./820.
3.根据“Because sports and homework are not the reasons for not doing housework.”可知,孩子们用体育和家庭作业作为不做家务的借口。故填Children use excuses like sports or homework (for not doing housework)./Sports or homework.
4.根据“But if you’re trying to teach kids to share the responsibility of a home, paying them for normal housework is not the right choice.”可知,父母不应该为做家务而支付孩子费用。故填No(, they shouldn’t).
5.开放性试题,言之有理即可。例如:是的,我在家里洗碗。故填Yes, I do. I wash the dishes at home.

Passage 2
A.回答问题
Fewer parents can hear the words “What can I do to help?” from their kids. Teenagers spend more time on video games, computers and cell phones, so they help less with housework.
Few parents think games can let their kids be away from the sofa—much less encourage (鼓励) them to do chores. But some new chore apps really succeed in doing so.
You Rule Chores is one of the apps. Mrs. Wise says the app makes her three children compete to see who can do more housework. They help their mom do the laundry, walk the dog and clean the dishes. Each child chooses one of the app’s avatars (替身角色), which include a pink kitty, a robot scientist and a policeman. Each time they finish a job, their avatars will be able to get new skills. And the more housework they do, the more app coins they can get. They can use the coins to watch their favorite videos and buy something on the Internet. “It’s fun,” says one of Mrs. Wise’s children.
1. How many kids does Mrs. Wise have?
2. What is You Rule Chores?
3. What do they help their mom do in the app?

Leo’s love for cooking started at the age of nine. The reason for that is just because he didn’t like the food his mother cooked. Thankfully, she wasn’t mad and she told Leo that he could depend on himself. She bought her son cookbooks and showed him Internet recipes to see if he could do any better. The little boy practiced his life skills after school and taught himself from the Internet. To his mother’s surprise, Leo was talented in cooking. All his friends, neighbors and relatives liked the food he cooked. When he was only thirteen, he was called culinary prodigy (烹饪神童).
In his room, there were no video games, basketballs or movie posters, but mixers, pots, cutting boards and pans. Because of his strong love for cooking, with his parents’ help, he even turned his bedroom into an experimental laboratory.
Leo does not like just simple types of food. He prefers creating interesting dishes. “I could take a carrot and raise it to this amazing level that you’d never think you’re eating a carrot,” he said. The XiangShanwang described his meals as “creative enough to make an experienced cook inferior (逊色的)”.

For example, when six-year-old Hazel was doing the dishes, she noticed the dishwashing gloves (手套) were too big for her and that the water kept getting inside the gloves. She told her parents that she wanted to buy a smaller pair of gloves. So the next time, her family went shopping and she chose a pair of blue dishwashing gloves. Now, she looks forward to doing the dishes because she can use her new gloves!

The government pays attention to the importance of hard-working spirit education. Teenagers will grow up and leave their parents in the future, so they should learn some life skills. But many teenagers don’t know the importance of working hard.
A girl, Nancy, never helps out in the house. Once her mother was on vacation for a week, leaving her alone at home. When her mother came home from vacation, she could not find a clean dish or a clean shirt.
Schools plays an important part in teaching students about the importance of working hard. Schools should provide students with hard-working spirit courses (课程) every week.

It is about 500 square meters.

回答问题
请阅读下面短文,根据所提供的信息,回答5个问题。要求所写答案语法正确、语义完整切题。
Housework was not popular at my house. My children didn’t like to do it. They always saw me do housework, but they hardly ever helped me do it. As a mother, this was not what I wanted. So a year ago, I made a game called “The Endless Housework Game”. Everything has changed since then. Here’s how the game works.
We usually do it in the kitchen. To do the game, I need to get a dice (骰子) and make a card with forty squares (方框). Firstly, I write different housework on each square. The housework can be easy and interesting like making dessert. Then my family roll the dice to decide what housework we have to do. The card also has a few squares with fun things, like watching TV and singing. If you are lucky, you can watch TV when the others are doing the housework.
My son likes the game very much. He goes to the kitchen happily every morning to do the game. Along with such an exciting game, housework is no longer a problem for him. You can have a try if you have the same problem with me. It is really a good way to make children do housework.
1. When did the writer make the game?
2. Where do they usually play the game?
3. What does the writer write on the squares?
4. Who likes to do the game every morning?
5. Why does the writer recommend (推荐) the game?

For most teenagers, the kitchen may be a strange place. But for Flynn McGarry, a boy from Los Angeles, it is an amazing place and he is crazy about cooking.
At the age of fifteen, he opened his own dining club at home and worked with some of the best restaurants in his country.
McGarry’s love for cooking started at the age of ten. The reason for that is just because he didn’t like the food his mother cooked. Thankfully, she wasn’t mad and bought her son cookbooks and showed him Internet recipes to see if he could do any better. The little boy practiced his life skills after school and taught himself from the Internet. When he was only thirteen, he was called culinary prodigy(烹饪神童) and the country’s hottest cook.
In his room, there were no video games, basketballs or movie posters, but mixers, pots, cutting boards and pans. Because of his strong love for cooking, with his parents’ help, he even turned his bedroom into an experimental kitchen laboratory called Eureka.
McGarry does not like just simple types of food. He prefers creating interesting dishes. “I could take a carrot and raise it to this amazing level that you’ve never think you’re eating a carrot,” he said. The New York Times described his meals as “creative enough to make an experienced cook inferior(逊色的)”.

2. When did McGarry show his love for cooking?
3. Why did McGarry begin cooking when he was so young?

Passage 12
阅读下面短文,然后根据短文内容回答问题。
Should parents pay kids to do chores?
This helps kids know that how hard it is to make money. They also get to know the real value(价值)of money. For example,I give my daughter Susan $1 each time for doing the dishes or cleaning the living room. She saves the money and spends it on her favorite books.
Catherine
Rewards(奖励)are always helpful in developing good habits. It’s important to provide some rewards for kids doing chores. It could be money, something fun on the weekend or just words like “Nice work on the dishes!”
Mandy
What’s going to be their motivation(动机)to keep the rooms clean when children move out to live alone? I drive to my children’s flats once a week and give them $20 if they do well. They need to learn that the only real reword for doing chores is having a clean home.
Judy
Doing chores without getting paid teaches kids the true meaning of hard work. My son always helps sweep the floor without getting paid. In my opinion, if you pay kids to do chores, they might stop helping unless they’re being paid. Also, kids might start asking for more money to do simple chores. Is this really what you want?
Bella
1. What does Susan spend the money on?
2. How many kinds of rewards does Mandy mention?
3. How often does Judy drive to her children’s flats?

例文
Should parents pay kids to do chores?
More and more parents pay their kids to do chores. Should they do that? Some people say yes because it will encourage kids to do more things around the house. It also helps kids learn about money and how it works. But some people disagree with it. They think doing chores without getting paid teaches kids the true meaning of hard work.
In my opinion, I don’t think parents should pay kids to do chores. Firstly, housework is part of family life. Every family member should share it. Secondly, it is harmful to kids’ personality development in the future, because they may consider money first when do anything. Finally, it will make kids lazy unless they’re being paid.

Passage 13
请阅读下面短文,根据所提供的信息,回答5 个问题。要求所写答案语法正确、语义完整切题。
Children in the United States think that the long summer vacation can be a great time to learn or to do something new. The long summer vacation is always from the beginning of June to the end of August. That means young children can spend more time relaxing. Some like to do some reading or drawing at home. Some spend time on outdoor activities,hanging out(闲逛) with friends.
It is also a great time for families to travel to see interesting places for a few days or weeks. Families sometimes go to big cities to see famous buildings or places, but usually they like to find quiet places such as beaches or mountain areas.
It is also fun to go to a camp. During the summer vacation, there are many camps for school children, such as horse-riding camps, science camps and music camps. Most children enjoy joining different camps every summer. They can make new friends and have a lot of fun.
There are also some kids spending their time in doing voluntary work—work for free. Kids will clean or paint schools, sing for the old people or read to children. Parents would like their children to do voluntary work because most of them think it is a good way for children to show their kindness.
1. When is the long summer vacation in America?
2. Where do families go to see famous buildings?
3. How many kinds of camps are mentioned in the passage?

Passage 14
A.信息归纳(共5小题, 每题2分, 共10分)
请阅读下面的材料,根据所提供的信息,回答下面的问题。
Why do you set goals (目标)? Because goals can help you do and experience everything you want in life. Instead of just letting life happen to you, goals allow you to make your life happen.
Successful people imagine what their life will be like and set many goals. It’s like a map to show you where you want to go. With it, you can get there easily. Think of it in this way. There are two drivers. One has a destination (目的地) in mind which can be found on a map. So he can drive straight there. But the other driver has no destination. He starts off at the same time from the same place as the first driver, but he drives aimlessly around. Which driver do you want to be?
Winners in life set goals and follow them. Unsuccessful people just let life happen by accident. Goals aren’t difficult to set and reach. It’s up to you to find out what your goals really are.
Research tells us that when we write a goal down, we are more likely to achieve (实现) it. Written goals can be reviewed regularly, and have more power. They are harder to be neglected (忽视) or forgotten. When you write your goals down in a particular (特殊的) way, they will bring you nearer to what you want.
1. Why should we set goals?
2. Who imagine what their life will be like and set many goals?
3. Which one would you like to be if you want to get the destination easily?
4. Are goals difficult to set and reach?
5. What will they bring you when you write your goals down in a particular way?
B.书面表达(本题15 分)

My Holiday Plans
Winter holiday is coming, and I have some plans for it.
【答案】1. Because goals can help us do and experience everything we want in life. 2. Successful people imagine what their life will be like and set many goals./Successful people do. 3. I would like to be the one with a destination(in mind)./I would like to be the first one./I would like to be the one who has a destination(in mind). 4. No, they aren’t. 5. They will bring me/us nearer to what I/we want.
例文:
My Holiday Plans
Winter holiday is coming, and I have some plans for it. During my winter holiday, I am going to finish all my homework well in a planned way. I will make a plan for every subject and follow it strictly. At the same time, I will spend one hour exercising every day. I’ll get some friends to join me. Everyone helps and encourages each other to keep on it. I think the winter vacation is a good chance for us to catch up. I will make good use of it.
I hope everyone can learn to make plans for our study because good plans can make us learn better.
【导语】本文是一篇议论文。主要讲述了设定目标的重要性。
1. 根据“Because goals can help you do and experience everything you want in life.”可知,设定目标能够帮助你做并且体验生活中你想要的一切。故填Because goals can help us do and experience everything we want in life.
2. 根据“Successful people imagine what their life will be like and set many goals.”可知,成功的人会想象他们的生活将会是什么样子的,并且会设定很多目标。故填Successful people imagine what their life will be like and set many goals./Successful people do.
3. 根据“One has a destination (目的地) in mind which can be found on a map. So he can drive straight there. But the other driver has no destination. He starts off at the same time from the same place as the first driver, but he drives aimlessly around.”可知,心中有目的地的司机会直接到目的地。但是没有目的地的司机,虽然和有目的地的司机同时同地开始,但是他会无目的的乱转。因此第一种心中有目的地的司机会更加容易到达目的地。故填I would like to be the one with a destination(in mind)./I would like to be the first one./I would like to be the one who has a destination(in mind).
4. 根据“Goals aren’t difficult to set and reach.”可知,制定并达到目标并不困难。故填No, they aren’t.
5. 根据“When you write your goals down in a particular (特殊的) way, they will bring you nearer to what you want.”可知,当你用一种特殊的方式写下你的目标的话,你将会离你想要的生活更近一步。故填They will bring me/us nearer to what I/we want.

Passage 1
A.回答问题
Should children do housework? Different people have different ideas. A few parents will say that their children are too busy with homework. Many parents ask them to do housework, but in fact few children do it.
That’s a problem. Housework is good for kids. Sharing a part of housework helps children develop an awareness (意识) of the needs of others. One study found that those successful young people took part in housework tasks at the age of 3 or 4. They early shared responsibilities (责任) and it helped them develop a sense of responsibility in other areas of their lives.
Although housework helps a lot, few kids are doing much around the house. In a survey of 1,000 American adults, 82 percent of them have done normal housework when they grow up. But only 56 percent of the adults said they asked children to do housework.
What should you do to get children do housework? Accept no excuses (借口). Because sports and homework are not the reasons for not doing housework. Don’t worry if you must repeat (重复) yourself again and again. Can a payment help? Maybe. But if you’re trying to teach kids to share the responsibility of a home, paying them for normal housework is not the right choice.
1.Why is housework good for kids?
2.How many American adults in the survey have done normal housework when they grow up?
3.What excuses do children use for not doing housework according to paragraph 4?
4.Should parents pay children for doing housework according to the passage?
5.Do you do housework at home? What do you do?

A Helper of My Family
Passage 2
A.回答问题
Fewer parents can hear the words “What can I do to help?” from their kids. Teenagers spend more time on video games, computers and cell phones, so they help less with housework.
Few parents think games can let their kids be away from the sofa—much less encourage (鼓励) them to do chores. But some new chore apps really succeed in doing so.
You Rule Chores is one of the apps. Mrs. Wise says the app makes her three children compete to see who can do more housework. They help their mom do the laundry, walk the dog and clean the dishes. Each child chooses one of the app’s avatars (替身角色), which include a pink kitty, a robot scientist and a policeman. Each time they finish a job, their avatars will be able to get new skills. And the more housework they do, the more app coins they can get. They can use the coins to watch their favorite videos and buy something on the Internet. “It’s fun,” says one of Mrs. Wise’s children.
1. How many kids does Mrs. Wise have?
2. What is You Rule Chores?
3. What do they help their mom do in the app?
4. What will happen after the children finish a job?
5. What can children do with the app coins?

For most teenagers, the kitchen may be a strange place. But for Leo, a boy from ZhuHai, it is an amazing place and he is crazy about cooking.
At the age of fifteen, he opened his own dining club at home and worked with some of the best restaurants in his city.
Leo’s love for cooking started at the age of nine. The reason for that is just because he didn’t like the food his mother cooked. Thankfully, she wasn’t mad and she told Leo that he could depend on himself. She bought her son cookbooks and showed him Internet recipes to see if he could do any better. The little boy practiced his life skills after school and taught himself from the Internet. To his mother’s surprise, Leo was talented in cooking. All his friends, neighbors and relatives liked the food he cooked. When he was only thirteen, he was called culinary prodigy (烹饪神童).
In his room, there were no video games, basketballs or movie posters, but mixers, pots, cutting boards and pans. Because of his strong love for cooking, with his parents’ help, he even turned his bedroom into an experimental laboratory.
Leo does not like just simple types of food. He prefers creating interesting dishes. “I could take a carrot and raise it to this amazing level that you’d never think you’re eating a carrot,” he said. The XiangShanwang described his meals as “creative enough to make an experienced cook inferior (逊色的)”.
1. What kind of place the kitchen is for Leo?
2. When did Leo show his love for cooking?
3. Why did Leo begin cooking when he was so young?
4. How long did it take him to become famous as a cook?
5. What can you see in his room?

Children need to help with chores at home. However, some children don’t enjoy doing them. Hazel, Jono and Charlie disliked doing chores in the past. In order to change their ideas, the children’s mom came up with a creative idea: She provided the children with a chore wheel. There are their names and different chores on the wheel. Every week, the children rotate (转动) the wheel and do the jobs next to their names.
Now, after several weeks, the family is starting to see some good results. The kids enjoy rotating the chore wheel and doing chores. At the same time, their parents often listen to their ideas to help improve their work. For example, when six-year-old Hazel was doing the dishes, she noticed the dishwashing gloves (手套) were too big for her and that the water kept getting inside the gloves. She told her parents that she wanted to buy a smaller pair of gloves. So the next time, her family went shopping and she chose a pair of blue dishwashing gloves. Now, she looks forward to doing the dishes because she can use her new gloves!
The children now have fun doing chores. They say that they have a strong feeling of satisfaction after finishing their chores. They thank their mom for her great idea. The family say they’ll keep using the chore wheel.
1. Who came up with the creative idea of providing a chore wheel?
2. What are on the chore wheel?
3. How old is Hazel?
4. Why is Hazel looking forward to doing the dishes now?
5. How do the children feel now after finishing their chores?

The government pays attention to the importance of hard-working spirit education. Teenagers will grow up and leave their parents in the future, so they should learn some life skills. But many teenagers don’t know the importance of working hard.
A girl, Nancy, never helps out in the house. Once her mother was on vacation for a week, leaving her alone at home. When her mother came home from vacation, she could not find a clean dish or a clean shirt.
Schools plays an important part in teaching students about the importance of working hard. Schools should provide students with hard-working spirit courses (课程) every week. Some schools provide each class with a piece of field to plant vegetables. For example, No. 38 Middle School in Hefei sets up a farm on an open platform (平台) of their teaching building. It is about 500 square meters.
Teenagers should learn two life skills every year. Parents should also teach children to learn how to do chores at home, including cooking, washing their own clothes and cleaning their rooms. The skills may help teenagers solve the problems they will meet in the future.
1. Why should teenagers learn some life skills?
2. How long did Nancy stay at home alone?

Dear Sir,
I’m in Grade 8 from No. 1 Middle School. I began to help out with chores when I was in primary school. I think it’s very important for teenagers to do so, because these days we need all-round development. We can learn a lot of living skills by doing chores. I live in the dormitory at school now. Those skills help me take good care of myself. When I come back home from school on weekends, I always help my parents if they need my help. I believe that doing chores helps to develop children’s independence.
Tom
Dear Sir,
I don’t think we should depend on our parents too much because we shall live on our own one day. I sometimes help with chores at home. I think we should share the responsibility with our parents. I hate some chores while I like others. I hate washing clothes because it’s boring. Of all the chores, I like cooking best. I can not only cook the food I like, but also make a big meal for my parents. It’s a happy moment for me to watch my parents eat the food I cook.

Housework was not popular at my house. My children didn’t like to do it. They always saw me do housework, but they hardly ever helped me do it. As a mother, this was not what I wanted. So a year ago, I made a game called “The Endless Housework Game”. Everything has changed since then. Here’s how the game works.
We usually do it in the kitchen. To do the game, I need to get a dice (骰子) and make a card with forty squares (方框). Firstly, I write different housework on each square. The housework can be easy and interesting like making dessert. Then my family roll the dice to decide what housework we have to do. The card also has a few squares with fun things, like watching TV and singing. If you are lucky, you can watch TV when the others are doing the housework.
My son likes the game very much. He goes to the kitchen happily every morning to do the game. Along with such an exciting game, housework is no longer a problem for him. You can have a try if you have the same problem with me. It is really a good way to make children do housework.
1. When did the writer make the game?
2. Where do they usually play the game?
3. What does the writer write on the squares?
4. Who likes to do the game every morning?
5. Why does the writer recommend (推荐) the game?

My name is Nancy. I am fourteen. Last month, when I came home from school. I threw down my bag and went to the living room. The minute I sat down in front of the TV, my mom came over. “Could you please wash the clothes?” she asked.
“Could I watch one show first?” I asked. “No!” she replied angrily. “You watch TV all the time and never help out around the house! I can’t work all day and do housework all evening.” “Well, I work all day at school, too! I’m just as tired as you are!” I shouted back.
My mom did not say anything and walked away. For one week, she did not do any housework and neither did I. Finally, I could not find a clean dish or a clean shirt.
The next day, my mom came home from work to find the house clean and tidy.
“What happened?” she asked in surprise.
“I’m so sorry, Mom. I finally understand that we need to share the housework to have a clean and comfortable home,” I replied.

Passage 10
A.回答问题 阅读下面的短文,并根据短文内容回答所提问题。
For most teenagers, the kitchen may be a strange place. But for Flynn McGarry, a boy from Los Angeles, it is an amazing place and he is crazy about cooking.
At the age of fifteen, he opened his own dining club at home and worked with some of the best restaurants in his country.
McGarry’s love for cooking started at the age of ten. The reason for that is just because he didn’t like the food his mother cooked. Thankfully, she wasn’t mad and bought her son cookbooks and showed him Internet recipes to see if he could do any better. The little boy practiced his life skills after school and taught himself from the Internet. When he was only thirteen, he was called culinary prodigy(烹饪神童) and the country’s hottest cook.
In his room, there were no video games, basketballs or movie posters, but mixers, pots, cutting boards and pans. Because of his strong love for cooking, with his parents’ help, he even turned his bedroom into an experimental kitchen laboratory called Eureka.
McGarry does not like just simple types of food. He prefers creating interesting dishes. “I could take a carrot and raise it to this amazing level that you’ve never think you’re eating a carrot,” he said. The New York Times described his meals as “creative enough to make an experienced cook inferior(逊色的)”.
1. Which country is McGarry from?
2. When did McGarry show his love for cooking?
3. Why did McGarry begin cooking when he was so young?
4. How long did it take him to become famous as a cook?
5. What can you see in his room?

At home, our parents might do most of the housework. And we should try to give them a hand. Since early November, Chongqing Nanyu Middle School has asked its students to do housework every week. They’ve learned to cook, clean, tidy up and repair things around the home. Their work has surprised their parents and teachers. Let’s see what they’ve done.
Zheng Shitong, girl, 14
I like eating curry rice(咖喱饭), but I never made it myself before. I decided to give it a try. First, I washed some potatoes, onions and meat. After that, I cooked the meat and vegetables with oil, salt and curry spices. I was cooking the rice at the same time. That was it. The dish was ready to serve.
Sun Mingjing, boy, 13
My bedroom was in a mess with books everywhere. Once, I had to turn every part of the room upside-down to find a book. After that, I started to organize my bookcase. It has many shelves. I put books of different sizes on different shelves. On each shelf, the books are lined up in order from smallest to largest. My room is very tidy now.
Yang Siqi, girl, 13
My mom likes drinking hot water during winter. But when she drinks it from a glass, it’s too hot to hold. I cut out an old T-shirt and made a cloth holder(布托) for her glass. The holder makes it easier for her to hold the glass. It keeps the water hot for a longer time.

Passage 12
阅读下面短文,然后根据短文内容回答问题。
Should parents pay kids to do chores?
This helps kids know that how hard it is to make money. They also get to know the real value(价值)of money. For example,I give my daughter Susan $1 each time for doing the dishes or cleaning the living room. She saves the money and spends it on her favorite books.
Catherine
Rewards(奖励)are always helpful in developing good habits. It’s important to provide some rewards for kids doing chores. It could be money, something fun on the weekend or just words like “Nice work on the dishes!”
Mandy
What’s going to be their motivation(动机)to keep the rooms clean when children move out to live alone? I drive to my children’s flats once a week and give them $20 if they do well. They need to learn that the only real reword for doing chores is having a clean home.
Judy
Doing chores without getting paid teaches kids the true meaning of hard work. My son always helps sweep the floor without getting paid. In my opinion, if you pay kids to do chores, they might stop helping unless they’re being paid. Also, kids might start asking for more money to do simple chores. Is this really what you want?
Bella
1. What does Susan spend the money on?
2. How many kinds of rewards does Mandy mention?
3. How often does Judy drive to her children’s flats?
4. What does Bella’s son always help do?
5. Who think(s) parents should pay kids to do chores?

请阅读下面短文,根据所提供的信息,回答5 个问题。要求所写答案语法正确、语义完整切题。
Children in the United States think that the long summer vacation can be a great time to learn or to do something new. The long summer vacation is always from the beginning of June to the end of August. That means young children can spend more time relaxing. Some like to do some reading or drawing at home. Some spend time on outdoor activities,hanging out(闲逛) with friends.
It is also a great time for families to travel to see interesting places for a few days or weeks. Families sometimes go to big cities to see famous buildings or places, but usually they like to find quiet places such as beaches or mountain areas.
It is also fun to go to a camp. During the summer vacation, there are many camps for school children, such as horse-riding camps, science camps and music camps. Most children enjoy joining different camps every summer. They can make new friends and have a lot of fun.
There are also some kids spending their time in doing voluntary work—work for free. Kids will clean or paint schools, sing for the old people or read to children. Parents would like their children to do voluntary work because most of them think it is a good way for children to show their kindness.
1. When is the long summer vacation in America?
2. Where do families go to see famous buildings?
3. How many kinds of camps are mentioned in the passage?
4. How much money do the children get from the volunteer work?
5. Why do parents like their children to do the voluntary work?

Passage 14
A.信息归纳(共5小题, 每题2分, 共10分)
请阅读下面的材料,根据所提供的信息,回答下面的问题。
Why do you set goals (目标)? Because goals can help you do and experience everything you want in life. Instead of just letting life happen to you, goals allow you to make your life happen.
Successful people imagine what their life will be like and set many goals. It’s like a map to show you where you want to go. With it, you can get there easily. Think of it in this way. There are two drivers. One has a destination (目的地) in mind which can be found on a map. So he can drive straight there. But the other driver has no destination. He starts off at the same time from the same place as the first driver, but he drives aimlessly around. Which driver do you want to be?
Winners in life set goals and follow them. Unsuccessful people just let life happen by accident. Goals aren’t difficult to set and reach. It’s up to you to find out what your goals really are.
Research tells us that when we write a goal down, we are more likely to achieve (实现) it. Written goals can be reviewed regularly, and have more power. They are harder to be neglected (忽视) or forgotten. When you write your goals down in a particular (特殊的) way, they will bring you nearer to what you want.
1. Why should we set goals?
2. Who imagine what their life will be like and set many goals?
3. Which one would you like to be if you want to get the destination easily?
4. Are goals difficult to set and reach?
5. What will they bring you when you write your goals down in a particular way?
