A viral (爆红) video showed a schoolgirl who first argued with and kicked (踢) her mother and then a passenger tried to stop her. This video has started an online discussion about children’s upbringing (教养), Wuhan Post reported.
It all started when the woman and her daughter took the wrong subway. They got off at a station after realizing that. Then the girl began to argue with her mother, though it was the mother who was carrying their bags, with the girl offering little or no help. During the argument, the girl kicked her mother six times.
When the girl kicked her mother, the mother just stood there. And she wasn’t angry with her daughter for kicking her at all.
Parents are responsible (负责的) for telling children what is impolite and can’t be accepted. It is only by pointing out their small mistakes that parents can stop them from making bigger ones.
To be good parents, it is necessary for them to set examples themselves. Also, they should pass on these values (价值观) to their children.

阅读E篇短文,根据短文内容简要回答问题。请将答案填写到答题卡指定位置。
With the development of science and technology, communications are becoming easier and quicker now— people can use telephones, cellphones, fax machines and the Internet. It means that we seldom write letters now. But a TV show, Letters Alive (《见字如面》), is bringing back this old habit.
Letters Alive invites famous actors and actresses, but there are no funny jokes or different competitions. Instead, only one person walks up to a microphone and reads a letter. The letters were written by people from different times in history. For example, in one episode (集), they read a letter written by the famous writer Xiao Hong to her younger brother in 1941. The letter shows that Xiao Hong missed her brother so much and had great hopes for his future.
“Every letter opens another world for us,” said Guan Zhangwen, the director of the TV show. “It seems that we can experience the real lives and feelings of the writers”. Since its first episode was on, Letters Alive has been widely praised. Many audiences (观众) say that it has provided a breath of fresh air to today’s TV shows.
Besides Letters Alive some other cultural TV shows have also attracted Chinese audiences. They include the Chinese Poetry Conference, a traditional Chinese poetry competition and Readers, a program that invites people to read poems and articles they like or wrote. It suggests that cultural values and true feelings are becoming our interest.

50. 高声的音乐总是让我很不舒服。
_______________________________________
【答案】Loud music always makes me very uncomfortable.
【解析】
【详解】“高声的”loud;“音乐”music;“总是”always;“让”make,因主语“Loud music”为第三人称单数,所以make用第三人称单数形式makes;“我”me;“很不舒服”very uncomfortable;本句结合语境用“make sb.+形容词”表示“让某人……”。故填Loud music always makes me very uncomfortable.
51. 在排队吃午饭的时候,我听到了一声巨响。
_______________________________________
【答案】I heard a loud noise while I was waiting in line for lunch.

With the development of science and technology, communications are becoming easier and quicker now— people can use telephones, cellphones, fax machines and the Internet. It means that we seldom write letters now. But a TV show, Letters Alive (《见字如面》), is bringing back this old habit.
Letters Alive invites famous actors and actresses, but there are no funny jokes or different competitions. Instead, only one person walks up to a microphone and reads a letter. The letters were written by people from different times in history. For example, in one episode (集), they read a letter written by the famous writer Xiao Hong to her younger brother in 1941. The letter shows that Xiao Hong missed her brother so much and had great hopes for his future.
“Every letter opens another world for us,” said Guan Zhangwen, the director of the TV show. “It seems that we can experience the real lives and feelings of the writers”. Since its first episode was on, Letters Alive has been widely praised. Many audiences (观众) say that it has provided a breath of fresh air to today’s TV shows.
Besides Letters Alive, some other cultural TV shows have also attracted Chinese audiences. They include the Chinese Poetry Conference, a traditional Chinese poetry competition and Readers, a program that invites people to read poems and articles they like or wrote.
