Parents often believe that they have a good relationship with their teenagers (青少年). But last summer, Joanna and Henry noticed a change in their elder son: suddenly he seemed to be talking far more to his friends than to his parents. “The door to his room is always shut.” Joanna noted.
Tina and Mark noticed similar changes in their 14-year-old daughter. “She used to cuddle up (蜷伏) with me on the sofa and talk,” said Mark. “Now we joke that she does this only when she wants something, sometimes she wants to be treated like a little girl and sometimes like a young lady. The problem is figuring out which time is which.”
Before age 11, children like to tell their parents what’s on their minds. “In fact, parents are first on the list.” said Michael Riera, author of Uncommon Sense for Parents with Teenagers. “This completely changes during the teen years.” Riera explained. “They talk to their friends first, then maybe their teachers, and their parents last.”
Parents who know what’s going on in their teenagers’ lives are in the best position to help them. To break down the wall of silence, parents should create chances to understand what their children want to say, and try to find ways to talk and write to them. And they must give their children a mental break, for children also need freedom, though young. Another thing parents should remember is that to be a friend, not a manager, with their children is a better way to know them.
46. “The door to his room is always shut” suggests that the son ________.
A. is always busy with his studies B. doesn’t want to be disturbed (打扰)
C. keeps himself away from his parents D. begins to dislike his parents
47. What troubles Tina and Mark most is that ________.
A. their daughter isn’t as lovely as before
B. they can’t read their daughter’s mind right
C. they don’t know what to say to their daughter
D. their daughter talks with them only when she needs help
48. Which of the following best explains “the wall of silence” in the last paragraph?
A. Teenagers talk a lot with their friends. B. Teenagers do not want to understand their parents.
C. Teenagers do not talk much with their parents. D. Teenagers talk little about their own lives.
49. What can be learned from the passage?
A. Parents are unhappy with their growing children.
B. Parents have suitable ways to talk with their teenagers.
C. Parents should be patient with their silent teenagers.
D. Parents should try to understand their teenagers.
【答案】46. C 47. B 48. C 49. D
【解析】
【导语】本文主要讲了父母需要和孩子保持良好的关系,要像朋友一样和他们交谈,理解他们内心的想法。
【46题详解】
推理判断题。根据“suddenly he seemed to be talking far more to his friends than to his parents.”可知,他们的儿子现在跟他朋友交谈的时间比跟父母多,因此他总是把自己关在房间是指他开始疏远他的父母了。故选C。
【47题详解】
细节理解题。根据“sometimes she wants to be treated like a little girl and sometimes like a young lady. The problem is figuring out which time is which”可知,有时她想被当作一个小女孩,有时又想被当作一个年轻的女士。问题是弄清楚哪个时间想被对待成什么样的人。所以他们不知道女儿什么时候希望被当成孩子,什么时候希望被看成是大人,他们不能准确地读懂女儿的心思。故选B。
【48题详解】
词句猜测题。根据“They talk to their friends first, then maybe their teachers, and their parents last”可知,他们先和朋友交谈,然后可能是老师,最后才是父母。因此青少年和父母们不再和父母们交流很多了。故选C。
【49题详解】
推理判断题。根据“To break down the wall of silence, parents should create chances to understand what their children want to say, and try to find ways to talk and write to them”可知,父母应该在孩子青春期的时候,多了解他们的心理,明白他们的心思,只有这样才能进行良好的沟通。故选D。

Suppose (设想) you’re in London and trying to find the bus to take you to Hyde Park. This should be easy. But if you can’t speak the language, it can be a problem. What will you do? Here is some advice on how to ask the way in a foreign country.
Know the place you want to go. You can always tell others the name of the place where you want to go. It may be a place of interest, or simply a street. Whatever it is, if you do a little homework to remember the name of it, you can ask the way much more easily.
Take a map or a picture. If you’re not sure about your pronunciation when asking the way, you’d better take a map or a picture of the place where you want to go. As the old saying goes, “A picture can say a thousand words.”
Use body language. Body language can be helpful in making others understand where you want to go. For example, you can draw the shape of the Eiffel Tower in the air. It gives people an idea of where you are going.
With the advice above, I believe you can find your way. Let’s try!
50. What does the underlined word “it” refer to (指的是)?
A The place of interest.
B. The map you carry with you.
C. The place where you want to go.
D. The body language you should use.
51. Why does the writer give an example in Paragraph 4?
A. To remind readers to take a picture.
B. To compare it with other ways of asking for directions.
C. To explain how to use body language.
D. To show the best way of using body language.
52. In which part of a magazine can you probably read this text?
A. History. B. Science. C. Geography. D. Language.
【答案】50. C 51. C 52. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了在外国问路的几种实用建议,包括记住目的地名称、携带地图或图片、使用肢体语言等。
【50题详解】
词句猜测题。根据“You can always tell others the name of the place where you want to go. It may be a place of interest, or simply a street. Whatever it is, if you do a little homework to remember the name of”可知,如果你做一点功课来记住你想去的地方的名字,你可以更容易地问路。“it”指代前文提到的“the place where you want to go”,即你想去的地方。故选C。
【51题详解】
细节理解题。根据“For example, you can draw the shape of the Eiffel Tower in the air”可知,作者通过举例说明如何用肢体语言表达目的地。故选C。
【52题详解】
推理判断题。通读全文可知,全文围绕“语言沟通技巧”展开,提供问路的实用建议,最可能出现在杂志的“语言”版块。故选D。

After the paint was dry, the rich man’s son took the boat for a fishing trip. He didn’t know about the hole in the boat. When the rich man knew about the trip, he was worried. Luckily, thanks to the young painter’s kind act, his son came back safe and sound.

【答案】例文
Word of the Year of 2023 is challenge. It reminds me of the challenges I once had in learning English.
When I first went into junior high school, I couldn’t understand my English teacher because she only spoke English in class. I was worried and didn’t know what to do. My teacher encouraged me and gave me lots of helpful advice.
First of all, I listened to the tapes and read English aloud every morning, which helped to improve my pronunciation. Second, I improved my listening by watching English movies. In this way, I not only practiced listening but also had fun. Day by day, I could follow my teacher in class and I really enjoy the English class now.
Through the experience, I have realized that as long as we keep trying, nothing is impossible.

Parents often believe that they have a good relationship with their teenagers (青少年). But last summer, Joanna and Henry noticed a change in their elder son: suddenly he seemed to be talking far more to his friends than to his parents. “The door to his room is always shut.” Joanna noted.
Tina and Mark noticed similar changes in their 14-year-old daughter. “She used to cuddle up (蜷伏) with me on the sofa and talk,” said Mark. “Now we joke that she does this only when she wants something, sometimes she wants to be treated like a little girl and sometimes like a young lady. The problem is figuring out which time is which.”
Before age 11, children like to tell their parents what’s on their minds. “In fact, parents are first on the list.” said Michael Riera, author of Uncommon Sense for Parents with Teenagers. “This completely changes during the teen years.” Riera explained. “They talk to their friends first, then maybe their teachers, and their parents last.”
Parents who know what’s going on in their teenagers’ lives are in the best position to help them. To break down the wall of silence, parents should create chances to understand what their children want to say, and try to find ways to talk and write to them. And they must give their children a mental break, for children also need freedom, though young. Another thing parents should remember is that to be a friend, not a manager, with their children is a better way to know them.

A. is always busy with his studies B. doesn’t want to be disturbed (打扰)

A. Teenagers talk a lot with their friends. B. Teenagers do not want to understand their parents.

Suppose (设想) you’re in London and trying to find the bus to take you to Hyde Park. This should be easy. But if you can’t speak the language, it can be a problem. What will you do? Here is some advice on how to ask the way in a foreign country.
Know the place you want to go. You can always tell others the name of the place where you want to go. It may be a place of interest, or simply a street. Whatever it is, if you do a little homework to remember the name of it, you can ask the way much more easily.
Take a map or a picture. If you’re not sure about your pronunciation when asking the way, you’d better take a map or a picture of the place where you want to go. As the old saying goes, “A picture can say a thousand words.”
Use body language. Body language can be helpful in making others understand where you want to go. For example, you can draw the shape of the Eiffel Tower in the air. It gives people an idea of where you are going.
With the advice above I believe you can find your way. Let’s try!
50. What does the underlined word “it” refer to (指的是)?
A. The place of interest.
B. The map you carry with you.
C. The place where you want to go.
D. The body language you should use.
51. Why does the writer give an example in Paragraph 4?
A To remind readers to take a picture.
B. To compare it with other ways of asking for directions.
C. To explain how to use body language.
D. To show the best way of using body language.
52. In which part of a magazine can you probably read this text?
A. History. B. Science. C. Geography. D. Language.

Once, a rich man asked a young man to paint a boat. While painting, the young man found a small hole in the boat and quietly fixed it. After finishing his work, the young man received his money and left.
A month later, the rich man showed up at the painter’s house. He gave the painter a big check (支票).
“You have already given me the money for painting the boat, Sir!” said the surprised painter.
“This check is not for painting the boat, but for fixing the hole in the boat.” said the rich man. And then he told the painter what had happened.
After the paint was dry, the rich man’s son took the boat for a fishing trip. He didn’t know about the hole in the boat. When the rich man knew about the trip, he was worried. Luckily, thanks to the young painter’s kind act, his son came back safe and sound.
