(如果您未能按时到达预定的房间，在预定时间开始15分钟后，该房间将对其他人开放)”可知，预订时间开始15分钟后，房间将对其他人开放，如果迟到20分钟，房间已经对其他人开放，即不能再使用该房间。故选B。 【2题详解】 细节理解题。根据第五段“Study rooms located in the Graduate Lounge are unable to be reserved and operate on a first come first serve basis.

If all goes well, that baby will still be around in 2100, and might even be an active citizen of the 22nd century. What should we teach that baby that will help them survive and flourish in the world of 2050 and beyond? What kind of skill will they need in order to get a job, understand what is happening around them, and navigate the maze of life? At present, too many schools across the world focus on providing pupils with a set of predetermined skills, such as writing computer code in C++ and conversing in Chinese. Yet since we have no idea how the world and the job market will look in 2050, we don’t really know what particular skills people will need. We might invest a lot of effort in teaching kids how to write in C++ or to speak Chinese, only to discover by 2050 that AI will have been able to code software far better than humans, and that a new translation app will have enabled you to conduct a conversation in almost flawless Mandarin, Cantonese or Hakka, even though you only know how to say ni hao. So what should we be teaching? Many experts argue that schools should downplay technical skills and emphasize general-purpose life skills: the ability to deal with change, to learn new things, and to preserve your mental balance in unfamiliar situations. In order to keep up with the world of 2050, you will above all need to reinvent yourself again and again. To succeed in such a demanding task, you will need to work very hard on getting to know your operating system better — to know what you are and what you want from life. This is, of course, the oldest advice in the book: know thyself. This advice was never more urgent than in the mid-21st century, because unlike in the days of Laozi or Socrates, now you have serious competition. Coca-Cola, Amazon and Facebook are all racing to hack you. Right now, the algorithms (算法) are watching where you go, what you buy, and who you meet. Soon they will monitor all your steps, breaths and heartbeats. They are relying on big data and machine learning to get to know you better and better. And once these algorithms know you better than you know yourself, they could control and manipulate you. In the end, authority will shift to them. Of course, you might be perfectly happy giving up all authority to the algorithms and trusting them to make decisions for you and for the rest of the world. If, however, you want to maintain some control over your personal existence and over the future of life in general, you have to run faster than the algorithms. To run fast, don’t take much luggage with you. Leave all your illusions behind. They are very heavy. 4. What does the underlined word “downplay” in paragraph 3 most probably mean? A. To give too much importance to something. B. To give reasons why you think that something is right or wrong. C. To decide something in advance so that it does not happen by chance. D. To make people think that something is less important than it really is. 5. According to the article, children with ________ will more likely succeed in the world of 2050. A. imagination B. adaptability C. self-discipline D. a good sense of balance 6. Why is it important to know our operating system? A. Because if we don’t, algorithms will hack all our devices. B. Because it is an essential skill for us to succeed in the world of 2050. C. Because we need to outrun algorithms to keep some control over our personal life. D. Because we need to learn how algorithms work and make full use of them to make better decisions for us. 7. The article mainly talks about _________. A. the importance of knowing yourself B. the threats and dangers of technology C. some potential benefits algorithms would bring to humankind D. what kind of skill we might need in the future 【答案】4. D 5. B 6. C 7. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇议论文，文章探讨的是未来的教育方向，专家认为未来学校应该淡化技术技能，强调通用的生活技能，为了跟上2050年世界的步伐，我们首先需要不断更新自己。文章讨论了该如何去做以及为什么这么做的原因。 【4题详解】 词句猜测题。根据该词所在句and后的 emphasize“强调”可知，重点是and后的内容，由此猜测该句意为“许多专家认为，学校应该淡化技术技能，强调通用的生活技能”，划线词意为“淡化”。D选项“使人们认为某事物比它实际上更不重要”符合。故选D。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段内容“emphasize general-purpose life skills: the ability to deal with change, to learn new things, and to preserve your mental balance in unfamiliar situations. In order to keep up with the world of 2050, you will above all need to reinvent yourself again and again.(强调通用的生活技能：应对变化的能力，学习新事物的能力，以及在不熟悉的情况下保持心理平衡的能力。为了跟上2050年的世界，你首先需要一次又一次地重塑自己)”可知，专家强调的通用的生活技能都与应对变化有关，这表明适应变化的能力是成功的关键。故选B。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据倒数三段中“To succeed in such a demanding task, you will need to work very hard on getting to know your operating system better — to know what you are and what you want from life.(要成功完成这样一项艰巨的任务，你需要非常努力地去更好地了解你的操作系统——了解你是谁，你想从生活中得到什么)”、倒数第二段中“And once these algorithms know you better than you know yourself, they could control and manipulate you. In the end, authority will shift to them.(一旦这些算法比你更了解你自己，它们就能控制和操纵你。最终，权力会转移到他们身上)”和最后一段中“If, however, you want to maintain some control over your personal existence and over the future of life in general, you have to run faster than the algorithms.(然而，如果你想对你的个人存在和未来生活保持一定的控制，你就必须比算法运行得更快)”可知，如果算法比你更先了解了你自己，它们就能控制你，所以比算法更快了解自己很重要。故选C。 【7题详解】 主旨大意题。根据全文内容，结合第一段中“What should we teach that baby that will help them survive and flourish in the world of 2050 and beyond? What kind of skill will they need in order to get a job, understand what is happening around them, and navigate the maze of life?(我们应该教这个婴儿什么才能帮助他们在2050年及以后的世界生存和发展？他们需要什么样的技能才能找到一份工作，了解周围发生的事情，并在生活的迷宫中穿行？)”可知，文章探讨的是未来的教育方向，专家认为未来学校应该淡化技术技能，强调通用的生活技能，为了跟上2050年世界的步伐，我们首先需要不断更新自己。后文讨论了该如何去做以及为什么这么做的原因。A、B选项以偏概全；C选项错在benefits，文章中提到的明显是算法对我们的威胁。故选D。 C Britain’s housing crisis has created a distinct generational divide. While older generations often own property, millions of young adults face increasing rents and unachievable homeownership. A recent official report warns that 630, 000 people under 35 may face homelessness in old age due to chronic shortages of affordable homes. This crisis originates from decades of policy failure. Since the mid-1990s, house prices have skyrocketed dramatically, widening the gap between property owners and others. Government projects like “Help-to-Buy” intended to assist first-time buyers instead inflated prices further, making housing less accessible. University graduates carry heavy debts from tuition fees exceeding £9, 000 annually since 2010, weakening their savings potential. The rental market offers little relief. Private renters have jumped from 2. 8 million to 4. 5 million households since 2007, with those aged 25-34 consisting of over a third. Yet renters face instability and exploitation. “No-fault drivings” allow landlords (房东) to end rentings without cause, while rents exceed wage growth. Even social housing renters experience widening inequality compared to homeowners. Policy responses are emerging but controversial. London Mayor Sadiq Khan proposed a landlord registry and rent control commission to regulate the private sector. Scotland has established “rent pressure zones” to stop increases. The Labour Party advocates abolishing no-fault drivings, arguing that secure right of habitation are essential for dignity. Ultimately, this is about intergenerational fairness. A functional society cannot thrive when younger citizens bear unreasonable burdens. As one analyst notes: “We depend on the young to sustain our future — denying them housing security damages everyone.” 8. What does the official report predict about young adults? A. Universal elderly poverty. B. Persistent renting difficulties. C. Long-term housing insecurity. D. Unachievable huge property. 9. What brings about the housing crisis? A. Stable rental market. B. Students’ reduced debt burden. C. Decades-long policy failure. D. Consistent policy responses. 10. What can be inferred from the last paragraph? A. Young adults’ housing security should be guaranteed. B. Efforts should be made to create a sustainable society. C. The property of older generations should be passed on. D. The young should be responsible for intergenerational fairness. 11. What can be a suitable title for the text? A. Housing: Pricing out the Young? B. Policy: Regulating the Private Owners? C. Landlords: Forced to Accept Rent Hikes? D. Rental Control: Solving the Renter-landlord Conflicts? 【答案】8. C 9. C 10. A 11. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了英国住房危机造成代际分化，政策失败是根源，需保障年轻人住房安全。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“A recent official report warns that 630, 000 people under 35 may face homelessness in old age due to chronic shortages of affordable homes.(一份最新的官方报告警告称，由于长期缺乏经济适用房，63万35岁以下的人可能在老年时面临无家可归的风险)”可知，官方报告预测年轻人将长期面临住房无保障的问题。故选C。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“This crisis originates from decades of policy failure.(这场危机源于几十年的政策失败)”可知，几十年的政策失败导致了住房危机。故选C。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中“We depend on the young to sustain our future — denying them housing security damages everyone.(我们依靠年轻人来维持我们的未来——剥夺他们的住房安全会损害到每个人)”可知，年轻人的住房安全应该得到保障。故选A。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是第一段中“Britain’s housing crisis has created a distinct generational divide.(英国的住房危机造成了明显的代际分化)”可知，本文主要讲述了英国的住房危机造成了明显的代际分化，年轻人面临着租房难和买不起房的问题，因此选项A“住房：让年轻人望而却步？”适合作为文章标题。故选A。 第二节（共 5 小题；每小题 2.5 分，满分 12.5 分） 根据短文内容，从短文后选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Parents are the number one influence in their children’s lives. ____12____ In a Parents Empowered survey, parents placed themselves last in the line-up of influences on their children — after friends, teachers and media. ____13____ Research shows that there are three things parents can do to protect children from risky behaviors: bonding (联结), boundaries (边界), and monitoring. The stronger the relationship between parents and their children, the more the child will not want to disappoint the parent. Eating dinner together as a family has a significant impact on protecting children from risky behavior. ____14____ Listening to children without preaching (说教) strengthens the bond. Boundaries are set when parents set clear family rules on behaviors such as no alcohol or other drugs. Only a small percentage of teens will try these if parents make it very clear and talk about consequences (后果) for breaking the family rule. A much needed parental task, that tends to drop as the children become teens, is monitoring. A recent study shows the best kind of parenting to protect youth is “warm and with follow through”. ____15____ When they are going out, ask the questions: Where are you going? Who are you going with? What will you be doing? When will you be home? Will there be alcohol or other drugs there? ____16____ So it is helpful for kids who have a hard time saying “no” to their friends to be able to use their parents as the fall guys. A. Check on their social media. B. Parents don’t always believe this. C. In other words, trust but check on your kids. D. Have consequences when the rules are broken. E. That’s because there is family togetherness and discussion. F. There are plenty of dangerous activities kids can get into these days. G. But when the youth answered the same question, they placed their parents first. 【答案】12 B 13. G 14. E 15. C 16. F 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍父母对孩子影响最大却常不自信，还给出保护孩子远离危险行为的三种方法：建立联结、设边界、监督。 【12题详解】 由上文“Parents are the number one influence in their children’s lives. (父母是孩子生活中最重要的影响者)”及下文“In a Parents Empowered survey, parents placed themselves last in the line-up of influences on their children — after friends, teachers and media. (在一项父母赋权调查中，父母将自己排在影响孩子的行列的最后——排在朋友、老师和媒体之后)”可知，上文表明父母对孩子影响最大，下文却说父母自己认为对孩子影响最小，二者形成对比，B选项“Parents don’t always believe this. (父母并不总是相信这一点)”承接上文，并引出下文父母在调查中的表现，符合语境。故选B。 【13题详解】 由上文“In a Parents Empowered survey, parents placed themselves last in the line-up of influences on their children — after friends, teachers and media. (在一项父母赋权调查中，父母将自己排在影响孩子的行列的最后——排在朋友、老师和媒体之后)”及下文“Research shows that there are three things parents can do to protect children from risky behaviors: bonding (联结), boundaries (边界), and monitoring. (研究表明，父母可以做三件事来保护孩子免受危险行为的影响：联结、边界和监督)”可知，上文提到父母在调查中的排名情况，下文说研究表明父母对孩子有很大影响，能保护孩子，G选项“But when the youth answered the same question, they placed their parents first. (但当年轻人回答同样的问题时，他们把父母放在了第一位)”与上文形成对比，且引出下文关于父母对孩子影响的研究，符合语境。故选G。 【14题详解】 由上文“Eating dinner together as a family has a significant impact on protecting children from risky behavior. (一家人一起吃晚餐对保护孩子免受危险行为的影响有显著作用)”及下文“Listening to children without preaching (说教) strengthens the bond. (倾听孩子而不说教会加强这种联结)”可知，上文提到一家人一起吃晚餐对孩子有好处，下文说倾听孩子能加强联结，E选项“That’s because there is family togetherness and discussion. (那是因为有家庭的团聚和讨论)”解释了上文一家人一起吃晚餐对孩子有好处的原因，且“family togetherness and discussion”与下文“Listening to children”相呼应，符合语境。故选E。 【15题详解】 由上文“A recent study shows the best kind of parenting to protect youth is “warm and with follow through”. (最近的一项研究表明，保护青少年的最佳育儿方式是“温暖且持续跟进”)”及下文“When they are going out, ask the questions: Where are you going? Who are you going with? What will you be doing? When will you be home? Will there be alcohol or other drugs there? (当他们要出去时，问这些问题：你要去哪里？你和谁一起去？你要做什么？你什么时候回家？那里会有酒精或其他毒品吗？)”可知，上文提到保护青少年的最佳育儿方式是“温暖且持续跟进”，下文说孩子出去时父母要问一系列问题，C选项“In other words, trust but check on your kids. (换句话说，信任但要检查你的孩子)”对上文进行解释说明，且引出下文父母对孩子出去时的检查，符合语境。故选C。 【16题详解】 由下文“So it is helpful for kids who have a hard time saying “no” to their friends to be able to use their parents as the fall guys. (所以对于那些很难对朋友说“不”的孩子来说，能够把父母当作背锅侠是很有帮助的)”可知，下文提到孩子可以把父母当作背锅侠，说明孩子要以父母作为挡箭牌，对朋友说“不”，由此推知，上文提及的是孩子不想要参加的活动，F项“There are plenty of dangerous activities kids can get into these days. (现在孩子们可以参加很多危险的活动)”陈述事实情况，引出下文应对此情况的具体方法，符合语境。故选F。 第三部分 语言知识运用 第一节 完形填空（共 15 小题；每小题 1 分，满分 15 分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的 A、B、C 和 D 四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 Karen, 16, was a college freshman in a local university.

Every moment, we were moving farther away from the city, the place where I knew how to do things right. The car engine wasn’t off before Grandma hugged me. I slowly dragged myself out of the car. “Jude, you look unhappy. Why?” Grandma asked. She acted like nothing bad had happened last time. Could I ask how much money her neighbor Mr. Jackson had lost because of my mistake? Was he still upset with me? “I’m fine,” I answered. “I’m just missing my computer camp. Computers are something I’m good at.” “That sounds disappointing.” Grandma nodded. I liked visiting the farm during breaks before I messed things up last summer. Grandma lived alone, and Mr. Jackson was like family to her. Then one day I forgot to lock the gate and let the goats into his flower beds. He lost almost all his roses for the farmers’ market. Now, back at the farm, I felt nervous. I was trying to hide in the room when I saw Mr. Jackson! He was opening the door and calling Grandma. “I need help!” he yelled to her. “Just a second for the freshly harvested roses!” That was when he saw me. I felt my heart tighten and was ready for his criticism. I deserved it. He had probably been waiting for this moment since last summer. However, Mr. Jackson greeted me happily, “Great, Jude is here! Your grandma always tells us you are a wonderfully competent(有能力的)computer programmer.” I shook my head. “I am not competent. I am sorry I messed things up.” He was surprised and comforted me, “It was an accident. Being competent doesn’t mean you never make mistakes.” I looked out of the window. There were piles of roses waiting to be sold. “Jude, can you help us? We want to sell roses online. We have a computer and all the parts(零件)for our internet connection, but we just can’t set it up,” Grandma asked. No internet. They seemed to live in the twentieth century. 注意： 1. 续写词数应为150左右; 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Maybe I could be someone who was really competent. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Within a few hours, orders for roses flooded in. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 I could be someone who was really competent. “I can definitely help with that! Where are the parts?” Following Grandma, I went into the room, where a computer sat surrounded by some scattered parts. Rolling up my sleeves, I carefully connected everything. It was a piece of cake to me. “Done!” I announced confidently. After a few adjustments, the internet was up and running. Now it was time to sell the roses. I decided to start from my social media platform. I quickly uploaded photos, added descriptions, and set prices. Before long, notifications started showing up — people were noticing. My abilities made a difference!(96词) Within a few hours, orders for roses flooded in. “This is amazing, Jude!” Grandma cheered with joy as she began bustling about, packing flowers. Mr. Jackson chuckled warmly as he handed me another bunch to label. The energy was electric — everyone was on their feet, moving quickly to keep up with the growing orders. The farm felt alive, and so did I. To our surprise, the roses sold out in just half a day. “You’ve brought the farm into the twenty-first century, Jude,” Grandma hugged me tightly. I realized that being competent wasn’t about avoiding mistakes. It was about facing them head-on and making the most of my strengths.(100词) 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了暑假爸爸带Jude去奶奶的农场，但Jude去年在农场时因忘记锁门，导致山羊进了奶奶邻居Jackson先生的花田，最后毁了所有的玫瑰花，现在Jackson回到农场感到紧张，Jude在Jackson先生来找奶奶帮忙时试图躲避，Jackson却很高兴见到他并说去年只是一次意外，奶奶询问擅长电脑的Jude是否能帮忙在网上卖玫瑰花。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“也许我可以成为一个真正有能力的人。”可知，第一段可描写Jude组装电脑并开始在网上卖玫瑰花。 ②由第二段首句内容“几个小时内，订购玫瑰订单如潮水般涌来。”可知，第二段可描写玫瑰花很快被卖完以及Jude的感悟。 2.续写线索：组装电脑——开始在网上售卖——接到大量订单——大家为订单忙碌——玫瑰花售空——感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①宣布：announce/declare ②拥抱：hug/embrace ③意识到：realize/be aware 情绪类 ①喜悦：joy/delight/happiness ②惊讶：surprise/astonishment 【点睛】[高分句型1] Following Grandma, I went into the room, where a computer sat surrounded by some scattered parts.（由关系副词where引导的非限制性定语从句） [高分句型2] Mr. Jackson chuckled warmly as he handed me another bunch to label.（由从属连词as引导时间状语从句） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 莆田二中高二上第一次月考 第二部分 阅读理解（共两节，满分 40 分） 第一节（共 11 小题；每小题 2.5 分，满分 27.5 分） 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的 A、B、C 和 D 四个选项中，选出最佳选项。 A Charles Library Room Reservation System Welcome to the Charles Library study room and space reservation system!

B A baby born today will be thirty — something in 2050. If all goes well, that baby will still be around in 2100, and might even be an active citizen of the 22nd century. What should we teach that baby that will help them survive and flourish in the world of 2050 and beyond? What kind of skill will they need in order to get a job, understand what is happening around them, and navigate the maze of life? At present, too many schools across the world focus on providing pupils with a set of predetermined skills, such as writing computer code in C++ and conversing in Chinese. Yet since we have no idea how the world and the job market will look in 2050, we don’t really know what particular skills people will need. We might invest a lot of effort in teaching kids how to write in C++ or to speak Chinese, only to discover by 2050 that AI will have been able to code software far better than humans, and that a new translation app will have enabled you to conduct a conversation in almost flawless Mandarin, Cantonese or Hakka, even though you only know how to say ni hao. So what should we be teaching? Many experts argue that schools should downplay technical skills and emphasize general-purpose life skills: the ability to deal with change, to learn new things, and to preserve your mental balance in unfamiliar situations. In order to keep up with the world of 2050, you will above all need to reinvent yourself again and again. To succeed in such a demanding task, you will need to work very hard on getting to know your operating system better — to know what you are and what you want from life. This is, of course, the oldest advice in the book: know thyself. This advice was never more urgent than in the mid-21st century, because unlike in the days of Laozi or Socrates, now you have serious competition. Coca-Cola, Amazon and Facebook are all racing to hack you. Right now, the algorithms (算法) are watching where you go, what you buy, and who you meet. Soon they will monitor all your steps, breaths and heartbeats. They are relying on big data and machine learning to get to know you better and better. And once these algorithms know you better than you know yourself, they could control and manipulate you. In the end, authority will shift to them. Of course, you might be perfectly happy giving up all authority to the algorithms and trusting them to make decisions for you and for the rest of the world. If, however, you want to maintain some control over your personal existence and over the future of life in general, you have to run faster than the algorithms. To run fast, don’t take much luggage with you. Leave all your illusions behind. They are very heavy. 4. What does the underlined word “downplay” in paragraph 3 most probably mean? A. To give too much importance to something. B. To give reasons why you think that something is right or wrong. C. To decide something in advance so that it does not happen by chance. D To make people think that something is less important than it really is. 5. According to the article, children with ________ will more likely succeed in the world of 2050. A. imagination B. adaptability C. self-discipline D. a good sense of balance 6. Why is it important to know our operating system? A. Because if we don’t, algorithms will hack all our devices. B. Because it is an essential skill for us to succeed in the world of 2050. C. Because we need to outrun algorithms to keep some control over our personal life. D. Because we need to learn how algorithms work and make full use of them to make better decisions for us. 7. The article mainly talks about _________. A. the importance of knowing yourself B the threats and dangers of technology C. some potential benefits algorithms would bring to humankind D. what kind of skill we might need in the future C Britain’s housing crisis has created a distinct generational divide. While older generations often own property, millions of young adults face increasing rents and unachievable homeownership. A recent official report warns that 630, 000 people under 35 may face homelessness in old age due to chronic shortages of affordable homes. This crisis originates from decades of policy failure. Since the mid-1990s, house prices have skyrocketed dramatically, widening the gap between property owners and others. Government projects like “Help-to-Buy” intended to assist first-time buyers instead inflated prices further, making housing less accessible. University graduates carry heavy debts from tuition fees exceeding £9, 000 annually since 2010, weakening their savings potential. The rental market offers little relief. Private renters have jumped from 2. 8 million to 4. 5 million households since 2007, with those aged 25-34 consisting of over a third. Yet renters face instability and exploitation. “No-fault drivings” allow landlords (房东) to end rentings without cause, while rents exceed wage growth. Even social housing renters experience widening inequality compared to homeowners. Policy responses are emerging but controversial. London Mayor Sadiq Khan proposed a landlord registry and rent control commission to regulate the private sector. Scotland has established “rent pressure zones” to stop increases. The Labour Party advocates abolishing no-fault drivings, arguing that secure right of habitation are essential for dignity. Ultimately this is about intergenerational fairness. A functional society cannot thrive when younger citizens bear unreasonable burdens. As one analyst notes: “We depend on the young to sustain our future — denying them housing security damages everyone.” 8. What does the official report predict about young adults? A. Universal elderly poverty. B. Persistent renting difficulties. C. Long-term housing insecurity. D. Unachievable huge property. 9. What brings about the housing crisis? A. Stable rental market. B. Students’ reduced debt burden. C. Decades-long policy failure. D. Consistent policy responses. 10. What can be inferred from the last paragraph? A. Young adults’ housing security should be guaranteed. B. Efforts should be made to create a sustainable society. C. The property of older generations should be passed on. D. The young should be responsible for intergenerational fairness. 11. What can be a suitable title for the text? A. Housing: Pricing out the Young? B. Policy: Regulating the Private Owners? C. Landlords: Forced to Accept Rent Hikes? D. Rental Control: Solving the Renter-landlord Conflicts? 第二节（共 5 小题；每小题 2.5 分，满分 12.5 分） 根据短文内容，从短文后选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Parents are the number one influence in their children’s lives. ____12____ In a Parents Empowered survey, parents placed themselves last in the line-up of influences on their children — after friends, teachers and media. ____13____ Research shows that there are three things parents can do to protect children from risky behaviors: bonding (联结), boundaries (边界), and monitoring. The stronger the relationship between parents and their children, the more the child will not want to disappoint the parent. Eating dinner together as a family has a significant impact on protecting children from risky behavior. ____14____ Listening to children without preaching (说教) strengthens the bond. Boundaries are set when parents set clear family rules on behaviors such as no alcohol or other drugs. Only a small percentage of teens will try these if parents make it very clear and talk about consequences (后果) for breaking the family rule. A much needed parental task, that tends to drop as the children become teens, is monitoring. A recent study shows the best kind of parenting to protect youth is “warm and with follow through”. ____15____ When they are going out, ask the questions: Where are you going? Who are you going with? What will you be doing? When will you be home? Will there be alcohol or other drugs there? ____16____ So it is helpful for kids who have a hard time saying “no” to their friends to be able to use their parents as the fall guys. A. Check on their social media. B. Parents don’t always believe this. C. In other words, trust but check on your kids. D. Have consequences when the rules are broken. E. That’s because there is family togetherness and discussion. F. There are plenty of dangerous activities kids can get into these days. G. But when the youth answered the same question, they placed their parents first. 第三部分 语言知识运用 第一节 完形填空（共 15 小题；每小题 1 分，满分 15 分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的 A、B、C 和 D 四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 Karen, 16, was a college freshman in a local university.

Every moment, we were moving farther away from the city, the place where I knew how to do things right. The car engine wasn’t off before Grandma hugged me. I slowly dragged myself out of the car. “Jude, you look unhappy. Why?” Grandma asked. She acted like nothing bad had happened last time. Could I ask how much money her neighbor Mr. Jackson had lost because of my mistake? Was he still upset with me? “I’m fine,” I answered. “I’m just missing my computer camp. Computers are something I’m good at.” “That sounds disappointing.” Grandma nodded. I liked visiting the farm during breaks before I messed things up last summer. Grandma lived alone, and Mr. Jackson was like family to her. Then one day I forgot to lock the gate and let the goats into his flower beds. He lost almost all his roses for the farmers’ market. Now, back at the farm, I felt nervous. I was trying to hide in the room when I saw Mr. Jackson! He was opening the door and calling Grandma. “I need help!” he yelled to her. “Just a second for the freshly harvested roses!” That was when he saw me. I felt my heart tighten and was ready for his criticism. I deserved it. He had probably been waiting for this moment since last summer. However, Mr. Jackson greeted me happily, “Great, Jude is here! Your grandma always tells us you are a wonderfully competent(有能力)computer programmer.” I shook my head. “I am not competent. I am sorry I messed things up.” He was surprised and comforted me, “It was an accident. Being competent doesn’t mean you never make mistakes.” I looked out of the window. There were piles of roses waiting to be sold. “Jude, can you help us? We want to sell roses online. We have a computer and all the parts(零件)for our internet connection, but we just can’t set it up,” Grandma asked. No internet. They seemed to live in the twentieth century. 注意： 1. 续写词数应为150左右; 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Maybe I could be someone who was really competent. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Within a few hours, orders for roses flooded in. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
