考题 Passage OneSharon Keating was worried about her kids when she got a divorce. Her daughter, says, "I was feeling.., like down and sad and even though I didn't really show it."Judith Wallerstein says problems from divorce can stay for many years. They can show up when the kids are adults. As adults the kids have trouble.Wallerstein studied 93 children over a generation. The results can only be found in her book.She says children of divorce are more likely to have problems with drugs. They are far more likely to seek therapy. About 40-percent of them do not marry. Their marriages fail at nearly twice the usual rate. It is hard for them to trust. They are afraid of failing.Critics say Wallerstein had too few children in her study. Other things may be the cause of the kid's problems. The study does not compare kids from divorced families with kids from "healthy" families.Wallerstein's families divorced a generation ago. Times have changed. People feel different about divorce. Today programs like Kid's Turn try to lessen some of the effects of divorce with family counseling. Talking about their feelings helps the kids get through it.Since they know more about the problems, maybe the kids will be able to handle it.31. Children of divorce ______.A. are always happyB. Sometimes feel sad but don't really show itC. are not affectedD. are always very angry

考题 Tom says his girl classmates ____ talk a lot about love novels at school.

考题 About 21,000 young people in 17 American states do not attend classes in school buildings.Instead,they receive their elementary and high school education by working at home on computers.The Center for Education Reform. says the United States has 67 public “cyberschools.” and that is about twice as many as two years ago.The money for students to attend a cyberschool comes from the governments of the states where they live.Some educators say cyberschools receive money that should support traditional public schools.They also say it is difficult to know if students are learning well.Other educators praise this new form. of education for letting students work at their own speed.These people say cyberschools help students who were unhappy or unsuccessful in traditional schools.They say learning at home by computer ends long bus rides for children who live far from school.Whatever the judgement of cyberschools,they are getting more and more popular.For example,a new cyberschool called Commonwealth Connections Academy will take in students this fall.It will serve children in the state of Pennsylvania from ages five through thirteen.Children get free equipment for their online education.This includes a computer,a printer,books and technical services.Parents and students talk with teachers by telephone or by sending emails through their computers when necessary.Students at cyberschools usually do not know one another.But 56 such students who finished studies at Western Pennsylvania Cyber Charter School recently met for the first time.They were guests of honor at their graduation.1、What do we know from the text about students of a cyberschool?A、They have to take long bus rides to school.B、They study at home rather than in classrooms.C、They receive money from traditional public schools.D、They do well in traditional school programs.2、What is a problem with cyberschools?A、Their equipment costs a lot of money.B、They get little support from the state government.C、It is hard to know students' progress in learning.D、The students find it hard to make friends.3、Cyberschools are getting popular became().A、they are less expensive for studentsB、their students can work at their own speedC、their graduates are more successful in societyD、they serve students in a wider age range4、We can infer that the author of the text is().A、unprejudiced in his description of cyberschoolsB、excited about the future of cyberschoolsC、doubtful about the quality of cyberschooisD、disappointed at the development of cyberschools

考题 Parents can have a great impact on the development of their children's creativity in art. But first,they have to know how. They may find the following advice interesting and instructive.Encourage free drawing rather than coloring books. Coloring books stop the possibility of self-expression. A child may just enjoy colorful pictures and never learn how to express himself. As an art teacher says,“Children have a very powerful instinct to draw freely and roughly. Such practice makes them learn language easily. ”In fact,a child expresses himself in rough drawing. This is the beginning of literacy and creativity. Also,parents should not teach their kids“how”to draw and they should not make their kids draw realistic pictures to entertain themselves. Experience tells us that such teaching from the parents will discourage children,making them think they can't do it the “right”way.Competition and rewards should also be avoided in the process of artistic creation. A child's natural instinct to create will disappear if he or she thinks about prize while drawing.Parents should be role models for their kids. They should not say things like,“I can't draw a straight line. ”Instead,they should learn to say,“I love to create. ”This teaches children that the process of creation is more important than the product. If children see their parents drawing,cooking or building creatively,they will do the same.Buy a notebook for your child to use every day. This can be a journal for making up stories,writing ideas and drawing pictures. Even the youngest child can use it to draw freely and roughly,expressing himself.Take your child to places that promote ideas and creativity. Art museums,science centers,libraries and children's museums all are great places to see other people's creativity. That will inspire children to make their own creations and inventions.Give children choices and free time. Some of the best ideas come from daydreaming and imagining.In short,parents should allow their kids to have the freedom to invent for themselves. That means not always teaching and commanding.To develop their artistic creativity,children should be encouraged to______.A.draw freely and roughlyB.learn to draw realistic picturesC.know how to draw before they startD.learn to draw good pictures to get prizes

考题 共用题干 第二篇Bullying at school can have serious and harmful negative effects.Because it causes such a problem for many schools,it is important that schools take the appropriate action to minimize its harmful effects.One of the most influential steps that a school can take against bullying is to research and develop a firm understanding of the specific types of bullying the students at the school are facing. Administrators should conduct monthly surveys that ask students about their experiences with bullying, such as whether they were bullied in the past month,whether they witnessed bullying and issues that they think the school administrators should have known about. Administrators should also survey the school's teachers to find out what they know about bullying.Another step that a school administration can take to prevent bullying is to train its teachers, administrators and students' parents about bullying. Hold seminars in your school district to teach parents about ways to communicate with their children if they are bullied at school.Conduct workshops with professional speakers or psychology experts about recognizing the signs of bullying in the classroom for teachers and administrators in your school district.Create newsletters for parents about detail strategies your school is taking to combat bullying or discuss new research on bullying in schools.Last but not least school administrators,teachers and school board members should work together to create a disciplinary plan to use when situations of bullying arise.Make teachers work together in groups to discuss the strategies that they use for dealing with bullying in their individual classrooms.Developing a plan when bullying arises is important in helping students realize that they will face consequences if they choose to bully their peers.Having a disciplinary system in place can help prevent bullying before it even begins.Which title is appropriate for the essay?A:Bullied Students.B:What Parents Need to Know About School Bullying.C:Peer Pressure.D:Strategies Against School Bullying.

考题 Five ways to make conversation with anyone in choosing a new home,Camille McClain’s kids have a single demand:a backyard.McClain’s little ones aren’t the only kids who have an option when it comes to housing,and in many cases youngsters’views weigh heavily on parents’real estate decisions,according to a 2018 Harris Poll survey of more than 2000 US adults.While more families buck an older-generation proclivity to leave kids in the dark about real estate decisions,reality agents and psychologists have mixed views about the financial,personal and long-term effects kids’opinions may have.The idea of involving children in a big decision is a great idea because it can help them feel a sense of control and ownership in what can be an overwhelming process,and Ryan Hooper,a clinical psychologist in Chicago.“Children may face serious difficulties in coping with significant moves,especially if it removes them from their current school or support system,”he said.Greg Jaroszewski,a real estate brokers with Gagliardo Realty Associates,said he’s not convinced that kids should be involved in selecting a home-but their options should be considered to regards to proximity to friends and social activities,if possible.Younger children should feel like they’re choosing their home-without actually getting a choice in the matter,said ADAM Bailey,a real estate attorney based in New York.Asking them questions about what they like about the backyard of a potential home will make them feel Many of the aspects of home buying aren’t a consideration for children,said Tracey Hampson,a real estate agent based in Santa Clarita,Calif.And placing too much emphasis on their opinions can ruin a fantastic home purchase.“Speaking with your children before you make a real estate decision is wise,but I wouldn’t base the purchasing decision solely on their opinions.”Hampson said.The other issue is that many children-especially older ones-may base their real estate knowledge on HGTV shows,said Aaron Norris of The Norris Group in Riverside,Calif.“They love Chip and Joanna Gaines just as much as the rest of us,”he said.“HGTV has seriously changed how people view real estate.It’s not shelter,it’s a lifestyle.With that mindset change come some serious money consequences.”Kids tend to get stuck in the features and the immediate benefits to them personally,Norris said.Parents need to remind their children that their needs and desires may change over time,said Julie Gurner,a real estate analyst with FitSmallBusiness.com.“Their opinions can change tomorrow,”Gurner said.“Harsh as it may be to say,that decision should likely not be made contingent on a child’s opinions,but rather made for them with great consideration into what home can meet their needs best-and give them an opportunity to customize it a bit and make it their own.”This advice is more relevant now than ever before,even as more parents want to embrace the ideas of their children,despite the current housing crunch.   Araon Norris?《》()A.notes that aspects like children's friends and social activities should be considered up on home-buying. B.believes that home-buying should be based on children's need's rather than their opinions. C.Assumes that many children's views on real estate are influenced by the media. D.remarks that significant moves may pose challenges to children. E.says that it is wise to leave kids in the dark about real estate decisions. F.advise that home purchase should not be based only on children's opinions. G.thinks that children should be given a sense of involvement in home-buying decisions.

考题 资料:Did your child's brain shrink last summer? Probably not, but it may have shifted into reverse, according to a study by Dr. Harris Cooper, professor of psychology at the University of Missouri-Columbia. The study found that when students return to school after a long summer vacation, they've lost one to three months worth of learning. The decline is more detrimental for math than it is for reading. "All students lose math skills," says Cooper. It may be because community and home environments give kids more opportunities to practice reading than math. The study also found that income has an impact on how much a student loses or gains in reading. Middle-class children actually gained in reading over the summer, while lower-income students experienced losses. Cooper attributes this to the enrichment activities that many middle-class kids participate in over the summer, such as camp and trips. Your kids don't have to spend the summer stuck in reverse. "Parents can help their kids retain educational skills," says Cooper. He suggests the following five tips to kick off a learning-filled summer. 1. Keep lots of books around and make regular trips to the library. Most libraries schedule special summer events for kids. Sign up your family! 2. Think about what your kids may be learning next year when you plan the family vacation. Talk with teachers to find out what they'll be covering in class. If it's a unit on the civil war for example, you may want to schedule a visit to Gettysburg. If it's geology, visit a national park. 3. Keep math in mind. Since kids lose more math skills than anything else over the summer, try to do some special planning to find math-related activities. For example, if you can't decide whether to sign your child up for "Shakespeare's Theater" or "Math Magic" at the local community center, go with the math. 4. Consider summer school or tutoring. Struggling kids can get a lot of different kinds of help from these programs. Summer school can also enrich and accelerate learning in areas where kids show a special interest. 5. Call the curriculum coordinator in your child's school district, visit the school board office, or contact the schools of education at local colleges and universities to find out what educational programs will be offered in your area over the summer. Remember to keep it fun! You don't want to sour your kids on learning during the summer break. Why is decline worse for math than it is for reading?( )A.Because the community have the libraries B.Because at home the parents will make kids reading more C.Because in summer vacation kids have more time in reading D.Because community and home give kids more opportunities to read

考题 共用题干 第一篇About eight million school-age children are home alone after school.These are the hours when the number of violent crimes peaks and when youths are most likely to experiment with alcohol,tobacco,and drugs.Many older children take care of themselves after school for an hour or two until a parent comes home,and research suggests that some of these children are more at risk of poor grades and risky behaviors.Studies have been done to find out what helps to reduce these kinds of risky behaviors among youths.One study of Chicago neighborhoods showed that after-school programs resulted in less violence even in poor neighborhoods.After-school programs can help to reduce crime and violence because they offer activities to children and youths during their out-of-school time.In addition to helping youths make use of after-school hours,after-school programs provide teens with opportunities to develop caring relationships with adults.Studies have found that high-quality relationships with parents and other adults,as well as good use of time,are very important for healthy development in youth.After-school programs can also be used for teens who hang out at friends' houses and play basketball when a parent or other responsible adult is at home.The programs can also be helpful for formal after-school activities,including"drop-in"programs that are provided by organizations. Despite the benefits of after-school programs,there are many reasons why some parents do not use them. Programs may be too expensive,of poor quality,or hard to join.Some older cililciren and young teens may refuse to attend programs that seem like they are just child care.F'arents may ieei uncertain about how much freedom is proper for children and youths who are beyond the traditional child care years.However,research supports the effectiveness of these programs in protecting middle school and high school youths from risk and harm.Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?A:The grades of those children who are home alone after school are more likely to suffer.B:Parents want to give their children as much as possible freedom.C:The after-school programs help the students to make use of the time after school.D:The after-school programs are effective in protecting middle school and high school youths from risk and harm.

考题 共用题干 第一篇About eight million school-age children are home alone after school.These are the hours when the number of violent crimes peaks and when youths are most likely to experiment with alcohol,tobacco,and drugs.Many older children take care of themselves after school for an hour or two until a parent comes home,and research suggests that some of these children are more at risk of poor grades and risky behaviors.Studies have been done to find out what helps to reduce these kinds of risky behaviors among youths.One study of Chicago neighborhoods showed that after-school programs resulted in less violence even in poor neighborhoods.After-school programs can help to reduce crime and violence because they offer activities to children and youths during their out-of-school time.In addition to helping youths make use of after-school hours,after-school programs provide teens with opportunities to develop caring relationships with adults.Studies have found that high-quality relationships with parents and other adults,as well as good use of time,are very important for healthy development in youth.After-school programs can also be used for teens who hang out at friends' houses and play basketball when a parent or other responsible adult is at home.The programs can also be helpful for formal after-school activities,including"drop-in"programs that are provided by organizations.

考题 共用题干 第三篇The Home-schoolingSometimes,the line between private and public education can become very vague.Educators in the United States are wondering whether children who are taught at home should get some public services or how this growing practice(about 3 percent of American students are not fully registered in schools but receive education at home)should be regulated.In many western countries,many private schools are founded by religious bodies. Approximately haff the parents who decide to teach their kids at home are motivated religiously and use lessons by Internet or mail from church schools.Probably an additional fourth have some doubts about public education.They believe that regular schools don't meet the special needs of their children.It also happens that home-school is adopted by parents to escape compulsory education,for example,some selfish parents have older children take care of his or her younger siblings(兄弟姐妹)or work in home businesses while only teaching them for a very short time.Weakness in regulations in most states of the US means that officials seldom monitor or challenge parents who say they are teaching their children at home,although children often learn well in home-schooling. With growing frequency,however,public schools offer services to the home-schooled.Local government may allow children who receive education at home to enroll local school part time.However,educators have concerns that these kids could later return full time,but their serious academic weaknesses may lead them to falling behind in their studies,and some districts wanting to qualify for state aid can benefit from kids who used to study part time to fill empty seats.In Kent,Ohio,Mrs. Ringer taught her three children at home in the past years while operating her bakery business there in the non-teaching hours.Mrs. Ringer said to our reporter that her motive was to give her children more training in basic curriculum,such as phonics(读音法).Her curriculum is from a church school,and relevant tests are handed in and returned via e-mail.Three years ago her second child,Mark,wanted to join school programs regularly,and he enrolled at the local high school.Unable to keep pace with his classmates,Mark soon changed his mind and decided to continue studying at home.But he enjoyed the athletic program and chorus at school,so he was allowed by Mr. Ringer to continue in them while taking other courses at home.What is the major concern of educators for the home-schooled kids who returned to school later?A:They can only enroll part time.B:They are not qualified to get the state aid.C:They may occupy the empty seats of classrooms.D:They may not be able to catch up with their classmates.

考题 单选题Passage 1Every day 25 million U.S. children ride school buses. The safety record for these buses is much better than for passenger cars; but nevertheless, about 10 children are killed each year riding on large school buses, and nearly four times that number are killed outside buses in the loading zones. By and large, however, the nation's school children are transported to and from school safety.Even though the number of school bus casualties is not large, the safety of children is always of intense public concern. While everyone wants to see children transported safely, people are divided about what needs to be done particularly whether seat belts should be mandatory.Proponents of seat belts on school buses-many of them parents and medical organizations argue that seat belts are necessary not only to reduce fatality and injury, but also to teach children lessons about the importance of using them routinely in any moving vehicle. A side benefit, they point out, is those seats belts help keep children in their seats, away from the bus driver.Opponents of seat belt installation suggest that children are already well protected by the school buses that adhere to the Nation Highway Traffic Safety Administrations(NHTSA) safety requirements set in 1977. They also believe that many children won't wear seat belts anyway and that may damage the belts or use them as weapons to hurt other children.A new Research Council report on school bus safety suggests that there are alternate safety devices and procedures that may be more effective and less expensive. For example, the study committee suggested that raising seat backs four inches may have the same safety effectiveness as seat belts.The report sponsored by the Department of Transportation at the request of Congress, reviews seat belts extensively while taking a broader look at safety in and around school buses.It may be inferred from this passage that_________.A many of the opponents of seat belt installation are parents and officials of the Department of TransportationB proposals of seat belts on school buses would be seriously consideredC an alternate safety device raising seat backs four inches may be taken into considerationD The Department of Transportation may either take the idea of seat belts or other measures when it reviews the whole situation
