ii.认真阅读下面两篇短文，每篇短文后有五个问题。根据短文的内容从四个选项中选择一个最佳答案。（本大题共10小题，每小题1分，共10分）

passage 1

a linguist is always listening, never off-duty. i invited a group of friends round to my house, telling them that i was going to record their speech. i said i was interested in their regional accents, and that it would take only a few minutes. thus one evening, three people turned up at my house and were shown into my front room. when they saw the room they were a bit alarmed, for it was laid out as a studio.(工作室) in front of each easy chair, there was a microphone at head height, with wires leading to a tape recorder in the middle of the floor. they sat down, and i explained that all i wanted was for them to count from 1 to 20. then we could relax and have a drink.

i turned on the tape-recorder and each in turn counted from 1 to 20 in their best accents. when it was over, i turned the tape-recorder off and brought round the drinks. for the rest of the evening there was general jolly conversation—spoilt only by the fact that i had to take a telephone call in another room, which unfortunately lasted some time.

as a matter of fact, the microphones were not connected to the tape-recorder in the middle of the room at all but to another one in the kitchen. the participants, having seen the visible tape-recorder turned off, paid no more attention to the microphone which stayed in front of their chairs, only a few inches from their mouths, thus giving excellent sound quality. and my lengthy absence meant that i was able to obtain as natural a piece of conversation as it would be possible to find. of course, i did tell my friends what had happened to them after the event was over and gave them the option of destroying the tape. but none of them wanted to.

31.the linguist asked his friends to count from one to twenty because a．he wanted to record the numbers for his research

b．he wanted to find out whether the tape recorder was working

c．he wanted to make his friends relax before real recording started

d．he wanted his friends to think that was all he wanted to record

32.the linguist turned off the tape-recorder because a．he had to answer a phone call

b．he wanted his friends to enjoy some drinks

c．he thought the tape-recorder might bother his friends

d．he wanted to make his friends believe he had finished the recording

33.the linguist went into another room to a．get a natural recording of his friends’ conversation

b．stay away from too much drinking with his friends

c．bring a telephone into the front room.

d．answer a long distance phone call

34.the linguist successfully recorded his friends’ conversation on the recorder .

a．in the kitchen

b．in the front room

c．in the middle of the room

d．in the room where he was answering the call

35.which of the following words can best describe the recording which the linguist managed to make?

a．controlled b．prepared

c．natural d．artificial

passage 2

a father’s relationship to his child’s current and future academic success is an important factor with some rather interesting implications that educators are beginning to study and estimate. as a matter of fact, “life with father” has been discovered to be a very important factor in determining a child’s progress or lack of progress in school.

a recent survey of over 16,000 children made by the national child development study in london, england, revealed that children whose fathers came to school conferences and accompanied their children on outings did better in schools

than did those children whose fathers were not involved in these activities. the study monitored(监测) children born in the same week in march,1958, from the time of their birth through the years of their early schooling. it revealed that the children of actively involved fathers did better in reading and math than did children whose only involved parent was the mother. the purpose of the study was to evaluate the role played by fathers in the raising of a child. it indicated a much higher level of parental involvement by the father than had been expected. over 66% of the fathers were said to have played a major role in parental responsibility.

the study also suggested that the greatest level of fatherly parenting took place in the families of only one child. as the number of children and financial obligations increased, the father’s apparent interest and involvement with the children decreased. however, no matter what the size of financial condition of the family, a father’s active participation in the child’s development made a definite difference in the child’s progress.

the study further revealed that when the father was frequently away from home for the night, it had a bad effect on the child’s level in math and reading. however, if he worked on night shifts, it appeared to have little effect on the child’s academic progress. the data for the study was obtained primarily through interviews with parents, teachers and physicians. the information that evaluated the level of the father’s parenting performance came chiefly from observations of their wives.

36.in this article the author intends to say that ( ).

a．parental involvement by the father is as good as that by the mother

b．parental involvement by the father is far better than that by the mother

c．children with only father’s involvement do very well in schools

d．children with the father’s involvement do better in math and reading than those whose only involved parent is the mother

37.the expression “life with father” in this context means ( ).

a．life in a family without the mother

b．life in a family with only the father

c．life in a family where the father is involved in the child’s growth

d．life in a family where the mother is not involved in the child’s growth

38.study results show that ( ) the fathers were involved in the child’s development.

a．about one third of b．about two-thirds of

c．just about half of d．no more than half of

39.the study indicated that if fathers are frequently away from home for the night, their children might be ( ) in reading and math.

a．favorably affected b．little affected

c．unfavorably affected d．a little affected

40.the data accumulated was obtained through ( ).

a．monitoring children of the same age throughout their schooling

b．interviews with the children’s mothers

c．observations of parents, teachers and physicians

d．monitoring, interviews and observations

ur kids too much?

1 while traveling for various speaking engagements, i frequently stay overnight in the home of a family and am assigned to one of the childrens bedrooms. in it, i often find so many playthings that theres almost no room - for my small toilet kit. and the closet is usually so tightly packed with clothes that i can barely squeeze in my jacket.

2 im not complaining, only making a point. i think that the tendency to give children an overabundance of toys and clothes is quite common in american families, and i think that in far too many families not only do children come to take their parents generosity for granted, but also the effects of this can actually be somewhat harmful to children.

3 of course, im not only thinking of the material possessions children are given. children can also be overindulged with too many privileges - for example, when parents send a child to an expensive summer camp that the parents cant really afford.

4 why parents give their children too much, or give things they cant afford? i believe there are several reasons.

5 one fairly common reason is that parents overindulge their children out of a sense of guilt. parents who both hold down full-time jobs may feel guilty about the amount of time they spend away from their children[0804:64] and may attempt to compensate by showering them with material possessions.

6 other parents overindulge because they want their children to have everything they had while growing up, along with those things the parents yearned for but didnt get. still others are afraid to say no to their childrens endless requests for toys for fear that their children will feel unloved or will be ridiculed if they dont have the same playthings their friends have.

7 overindulgence of a child also happens when parents are unable to stand up to their childrens ueasonable

demands.[0907:61; 1001:61] such parents vacillate between saying no and giving in - but neither response seems satisfactory to them. if they refuse a request, they immediately feel a wave of remorse for having been so strict or ungenerous. if they give in, they feel regret and resentment over having been a pushover.[0610:44] this kind of vacillation not only impairs the parents ability to set limits, it also sours the

parent-child relationship to some degree, robbing parents and their children of some of the happiness and mutual respect

that should be present in healthy families.

8 but overindulging children with material things does little to lessen parental guilt [0907:32] (since parents never feel that theyve given enough), nor does it make children feel more loved (for what children really crave is parents’ time and attention). instead, the effects of overindulgence can be harmful. children may, to some degree, become greedy, self-centered, ungrateful and insensitive to the needs and feelings of others, beginning with their parents. when children are

given too much, it undermines their respect for their parents.

in fact, the children begin to sense that a parents unlimited generosity is not right. the paradoxical result may be that

these children will push further, unconsciously hoping that, if they push too hard, they will force their parents into setting limits.

9 also, overindulged children are not as challenged as

children with fewer playthings to be more creative in their play. [0607:50] they have fewer opportunities to learn the value of money, and have less experience in learning to deal with a delay in gratification, if every requested object is given on demand.

10 the real purpose of this discussion is not to tell parents how much or how little to give to their children. rather, my intent is to help those parents who have already sensed that they might be overindulging their children but dont know how to stop.

11 parents who are fortunate enough not to have a problem with feelings of guilt dont need to respond crossly to their children when denying a specific request which is thought to be ueasonable. they can explain, cheerfully, that its too expensive - except perhaps as a birthday or holiday gift - or

that the child will have to contribute to its purchase from an allowance or from the earnings of an outside job. [0310:43]

12 its the cheerfulness and lack of hesitation that impress upon the child that parents mean what they say. a cross response signals that the parents are in inner conflict.[0410:42] in fact, ill make a rash statement that i believe is true, by and large: children will abide by what their parents sincerely believe is right. they only begin arguing and pestering when they detect uncertainty or guilt, and sense that their parents can be pushed to give them what they want, if they just keep at it. but the truth is that a child really wants parents to be in control - even if it means saying no to a request - and to act with conviction in a kind and loving fashion.

13 but, you may answer, i often am uncertain about whether to give in to many of my childrens requests. that doesnt mean you cant change. first you should try to determine what makes you submissive or guilty. then, even if you havent uncovered the reason, you should begin to make firm decisions and practice responding to your childrens requests in a prompt, definite manner.

14 once you turn over a new leaf, you cant expect to change completely right away.

[1107:34] you are bound to vacillate at times. [0607:43] the key is to be satisfied with gradual improvement, expecting and accepting the occasional slips that come with any change. and even after you are handling these decisions in a firmer and more confident manner, you cant expect your children to respond immediately. for a while theyll keep on applying the old pressures that used to work so well. but theyll eventually come to respect your decisions once they learn that nagging and arguing no longer work. in the end, both you and your children will be happier for it.

第五课你给孩子的东西是不是太多？

1 当我应邀到各地演说时，常常在别人家过夜，而且往往被安排住在这家孩子的卧室里。卧室里的玩具多得几乎没有地方放我小小的

洗漱用具包。而且衣橱一般也是挂满了衣服，满得就连一件夹克也

塞不进去。

2 我不是在抱怨，只是表明一个看法。我认为美国家庭普遍倾向于给孩子买过多的玩具和服装。我还认为，在太多太多的家庭里，这

样做的结果不仅让孩子们认为父母对他们的大方理所应当，而且实际上还会对孩子产生一定程度的负面影响。

3 当然，我指的不仅仅是孩子们得到的具体的物品，孩子们还往往享受过多的特殊待遇，比如，家长把孩子送往他们实际上去不起的收费很高的夏令营。

4 为什么家长要给孩子太多的东西，或者给孩子买他们负担不起的东西？我认为原因有好几个。

5 家长过分娇宠孩子的一个相当普遍的原因是因为家长对孩子有一种负疚感。父母双方要保住全职工作，会因许多时间不在孩子身边而可能感到内疚，于是就给孩子买大量的东西作为补偿。

6 还有些家长娇宠孩子是因为他们想使自己的孩子享有他们小时候拥有的一切，还要使孩子享有他们当时渴望但没能得到的东西。还有的家长不愿拒绝孩子无尽无休的买玩具的要

求，生怕他们会觉得家长不爱他们，或惟恐他们因为没有和其他小朋友一样的玩具而遭到嘲笑。

7 父母顶不住孩子的无理要求也就娇惯了孩子。这类家长对孩子的无理要求举棋不定，不知道是该回绝还是该满足，但又觉着这两者都不理想。如果他们拒绝了孩子，马上就会因自己对孩子太严厉太吝啬而懊悔。如果他们对孩子妥协了，也会因自己意志不坚定而悔恨。这种举棋不定的态度不仅使家长下不了决心给孩子规定界限，而且在一定程度上影响了家长和孩子之间的关系，使他们享受不到健康家庭本应有的欢乐和相互尊重。

8 可是过分满足孩子的物质要求并不能减轻家长的内疚感（因为家长永远不会认为自己给予孩子的已经够多），孩子们也不会因此就感到父母对他们爱得更深（因为他们真正渴望的是父母的时间和关注）。相反，娇宠反而有害。孩子在一定程度上可能会变得贪婪，以自我为中心，忘恩负义，对人，首先是对父母的需要和感情无动于衷。父母给孩子的东西太多，就会削弱孩子对父母的尊敬程度。事实上，孩子已经开始感到父母不应该无限度地为他们慷慨解囊。父母对孩子这种有求必应使他们得寸进尺，下意识地希望过分些会迫使父母给他们的要求规定界限。这种结果看似矛盾，却有道理。

9 还有，玩具太多的孩子在玩的时候不如玩具少的孩子有创造性。如果要什么就给什么，孩子就没有多少机会去体会钱来之不易，自己的要求不能立即满足就不能正确对待。

10 本文要讨论的问题不是告诉家长具体该给孩子多少东西。准确地说，我的意图是给那些已经意识到自己娇惯孩子而又不知如何改正

的家长出点主意。

11 有幸没有负疚感的家长们在拒绝孩子的无理要求时无需跟他们发火。他们可以和颜悦色地解释说这件东西太贵了（除非作为生日礼

物或节日礼物），也可以让孩子也掏出点自己的零花钱或在外面挣

的钱来买这件东西。

12 正是这种和颜悦色和毫不犹豫的态度让孩子感到父母说话是算话的。对孩子发脾气则表明父母内心充满矛盾。事实上，我要鲁莽地

说句我认为基本正确的话：孩子们是会遵循家长真诚想念是正确的

决定的，只有当孩子发现家长犹豫不决或是感到内疚，而且意识到

只要支持下去父母就会答应他们的要求时，才会和家长争吵，才会

纠缠不休。然而，实际上，孩子们真正需要的是父母当家作主，既

要果断行事，又要和蔼可亲，尽管这意味着有时要回绝他们的要求。

13 但你会说，很多时候你对是否要满足孩子提出的要求总是犹疑不定。这并不意味着你无法改变自己。首先你要明白为什么你总会顺

从孩子或对孩子总有负疚感。下一步，即使你还没有找到原因，也

应该开始做到行事果断，并训练自己在孩子提出要求时回答得爽快

干脆。

14 一旦你从头开始，不要期望你会一下子完全改变。有时你肯定还

会犹豫不决。这个时候，关键是要看自己在逐渐改进而感到满意。

对偶尔的反复要有思想准备，不要回避，任何改变都要有反复。也

不要期望你的孩子会马上适应你的变化，甚至在你已经能更果断、

更信心十足地做出决定之后。在一段时间内，他们还会采取过去行

之有效的施加压力的老办法。但一旦他们明白纠缠、争吵不再奏效，他们最终会尊重你的决定。最后，你与你的孩子都会因此而生活得

更快乐。

passage one

we find that bright children are rarely held back by mixed ability teaching. on the contrary, both their knowledge and experience are eiched. we feel that there are many disadvantages in streaming pupils. it does not take into account the fact that children develop at different rates. it can also have a bad effect on both the bright and the not-so-bright child. after all, it can be quite discouraging to be at the bottom of the top grade!

besides, it is rather ueal to grade people just according to their intellectual ability. this is only one aspect of their total personality. we are concerned to develop the abilities of all our pupils to the full , not just their academic ability. we also value personal qualities and social skills, and we find that mixed ability teaching contributes to all these aspects of learning.

in our classrooms, we work in various ways. the pupils often work in groups: this gives them the opportunity to learn to cooperate, to share, and to develop leadership shills. they also learn how to cope with personal problems as well as how to think, to make decisions, to analyze, and evaluate, and to

communicate effectively. the pupils learn from each other as well as from the teacher.

sometimes the pupils work in pairs; sometimes they work on individual tasks and assignments, and they can do this at their own speed. they also have some formal class teaching when it is appropriate. in this case, it is the teachers who do the teaching, which happens in any traditional classrooms. we encourage our pupils to use the library too, and teach them the skills they need in order to do this efficiently. an advanced

pupil can do advanced work: it does not matter what age the child is. we expect our pupils to do their best, not their least, and we give them every encouragement to attain this goal.

31．“we feel that there are many disadvantages in streaming pupils.” in this context, the word streaming means _____. a．evaluating c．lecturing a．using the library b．working in pairs c．learning from each other d．receiving mixed ability teaching

33．which of the following is not mentioned about group work? a．pupils learn to cooperate.

b．pupils learn to develop their leadership skills. c．pupils learn to participate in student teaching. d．pupils learn to think and solve problems.

34．in paragraph 4, formal class teaching probably means

_____. a．lectures by the teacher c．student teaching a．disconcerting c．encouraging

b．discussion d．library work b．positive d．negative b．grouping d．mixing

32．according to the passage, the students can develop all aspects of learning by _____.

35．in this passage, the author is _____ about streaming pupils.

passage two

i have had just about enough of being treated like a second-class citizen, simply because i happened to be a customer. the more i go into shops and hotels, banks and post offices,

railway stations, airports and the like, the more i’m con vinced that things are being run solely to suit the firm, the system, or

the union. there seems to be something deceptive for the so-called “service” organization－staff before service.

how often, for example, have you queued（排队）for what seems like hours at the post office or the supermarket because there weren’t enough staff on duty at the checkout counters? surely in these days of high unemployment it must be possible to hire cashiers and counter staff. yet supermarkets claim that uncovering all their cash registers at any one time would increase cost. and the post office says we cannot expect all their service counters to be occupied “at times when demand is low.”

it’s the same with hotels. because waiters and kitchen staff must finish when it suits them, dining rooms close earlier or menu choice is cut short. as for us guests, we just have to put up with it. there is also the nonsense of so many friendly hotel night porters having been thrown out of their jobs and replaced by machines. not to mention the creeping threat of the tea-making kit in your room: a kettle with a mixed collection of teabags, plastic milk cartons and lump sugar. who wants to wake up to a raw teabag? i don’t, especially when i am paying for “service”.

can it be stopped, this sort of poor service, this growing attitude that the customer is always a nuisance? i eagerly hope so because it’s happening, sadly, in all walks of life.

36．by saying “i have had just about enough of being treated like a second-class citizen,” the writer means that he does not _____. a．get a good job b．get any reward c．get good service

d．get good medical treatment

37．according to the passage, customers queue for a long time because _____. a．fewer people than needed are hired to work at the checkout counters b．the cashiers leave their counters from time to time c．the cashiers work rather slowly d．there are not enough cash registers

38．fewer people are placed at the checkout counters simply because _____. a．unemployment rate is high

b．there are more cashiers than needed

c．those in business hire fewer people to save money
