Making Peace with Your Parents
As a teen, you’re going through big changes physically and mentally. Your interests are expanding.  【小题1】 
Here is the challenge: Kids need to explore the world in new ways, and parents need to protect them from the dangers that are out in that world. These conflicts (矛盾) can easily set off fireworks in otherwise calm houses. Sometimes conflicts can’t be avoided. But by paying attention to the building blocks of successful relationships, you can work towards making home a happy and healthy place for you and your parents.
For instance, try to find a time to talk when your parents are not angry, tired, distracted, or hungry. A good time to talk is when you’re all relaxed. Timing is everything. If the conversation begins to turn into an argument, you’d better calmly and coolly ask to stop the conversation -- for now. 【小题2】 Listen to what your parents are saying, and repeat it back to them. This shows them that you’re listening.【小题3】_ 
Respect is the building block of good communication. People who respect each other and care about each others’ feelings can disagree without things getting ugly. _【小题4】__ How do you build trust?  Trust comes by actually doing what you say you’re going to do. Some teens find that doing fun activities with their parents can improve their relationships. Sometimes we forget that parents are more than rule-makers—they’re interesting people who like to watch movies, and go shopping—just like their teenagers!
What do you do if you are trying your best, but your relationship with your parents continues to be rocky? _【小题5】__ You can find supportive adults, such as a teacher or a coach, who can lend an ear.
Remember you can only change your own behavior; your parents are the only ones who can change theirs.

A.It also gives them a chance to clear things up if you’re not on the same page.
B.You can pick it up again when everyone’s more relaxed.
C.And then you’ll be able to accept what your parents say.
D.Faced with the challenge, children don’t know what to do.
E. You are more likely to get along with your parents and have more independence if your parents believe in you.
F. And your desire to take control of your own life is growing.
G. You may consider seeking outside help.


【小题1】F
【小题2】B
【小题3】A
【小题4】E
【小题5】G

解析试题分析:本文论述了十几岁的年轻人,有了更多的欲望,想自己独立,必然和父母有分歧,本文给出了一些如何和父母和平相处建议
【小题1】根据Your interests are expanding.可知兴趣多了,自己的控制欲在增长,故选 F。
【小题2】根据A good time to talk is when you’re all relaxed. Timing is everything. If the conversation begins to turn into an argument, you’d better calmly and coolly ask to stop the conversation -- for now.暂停争论,冷静下来,就必须再找其他的时间交流,故选B。
【小题3】根据Listen to what your parents are saying, and repeat it back to them. This shows them that you’re listening.把父母说的话再重复一下,父母就会再考虑一下自己的做法,故选A。

When our son, Alex, was young, he hated to travel. We endured refusals to visit one more museum, even if it was the Louvre. We coped with a child who resisted even a taste of onion soup in Paris and who insisted he would like nothing more than ordering room service at the hotel and watching TV.
Over the years, we have come up with several hard-earned but realistic strategies to help kids cope on long-distance trips.
First, we recognize that some children have trouble adjusting to new environments, food, time zones and schedules. So, in advance of a trip to England, we gave our son a taste of the new culture by making shepherd’s pie for supper. He loved the mashed potatoes, chopped meat and brown gravy(肉汁). For Italy, we sampled homemade pesto(香蒜沙司) served over linguine(扁面条). For Amsterdam, I cooked up a pot of comforting pea soup and baked a delicious apple pancake called pannekoeken. Then, when we traveled to these places, he ate these foods and they seemed like a taste of home.
In addition to food, we always sample the culture beforehand by reading books and renting movies from the countries we will be visiting. For Italy, the book Italian Folktales by Italo Calvino and the films Johnny Stecchino, Cinema Paradiso, and Il Postino gave our son a glimpse of the Italian way of life. For Britain, we rented Mr. Bean and Billy Elliot, and enjoyed stories by J.R.R. Tolkien and E. Nesbit. For Amsterdam, he finished The Diary of Anne Frank.
Before we leave home, we also ask Alex to go through our tour books and pick out activities that appeal to him. He was excited about visiting the London Dungeon and the Imperial War Museum, and taking a ride in the London Eye. They turned out to be big hits. Because Alex’s preferences were given equal attention, he was more tolerant of his parents’ selections, such as visiting Charters Cathedral and the Van Gogh Museum.
We’ve also learned the hard way that dragging our son out of bed early in the morning ,thus making him grumpy all day. Now that he is a teenager, we let him sleep in while we sip coffee at a café, work out at the hotel gym, or take a long walk. This makes our time together much more enjoyable
59.According to the writer, parents are advised to _______.
A. cook children’s favorite food           
B. postpone traveling until the kids are in college
C. allow their kids a ride in the London Eye
D. take children’s interest and preferences into account
60.Cinema Paradiso and Il Postino are mentioned as _______.
A. particular desires of children       B. an approach to interest the future possible visit
C. highly appreciated films for tourists  D. comfortable activities children could pick out
61.The underlined word “grumpy” in the last paragraph is similar in meaning to _______.
A. bad-tempered        B. tolerant           C. energetic           D. nervous
62.Which of the following might serve as a possible title for this passage?
A. Kids and Parents.                         B. Joys of Traveling.

科目:高中英语 来源: 题型:阅读理解

       It’s impolite to spit out the first bite of your dinner. But to a type of Australian snake, this rude behavior is a matter of life and death.

       The snake, called a floodplain death adder(蝰蛇), eats two types of frogs that are hard to stomach. The frogs produce chemicals to defend them from predators(猎食者).

       One of these species, the Dahl's frog, can kill a snake that tries to eat it. The other species, the marbled frog, is less dangerous but still tough to eat. When attacked, it produces a glue like substance. Leaves and branches get caught up in this material, making a big sticky mess that gets in the way of anything trying to swallow it. A marbled frog can even get stuck on the head of an attacking snake.

       Both frogs have good defense methods. But the floodplain death adder knows how to get around each of them.

       Floodplain death adders quickly strike these frogs, using their poisonous teeth to inject poison. But then, instead of swallowing their dinner immediately, the snakes sit back and wait for their preys to become safe to eat. That's because both the Dahl's frog's protective toxin(毒素) and the marbled frog's glue break down over time. After a while, the frog toxin is no longer poisonous and the glue is no longer sticky.

       The two substances break down at different rates, and floodplain death adders seem to know the difference, And adder waits for a different length of time depending on the species of frog it just struck.

       The stickiness of the marbled frog glue decreased by as much as two-thirds after just 10 minutes. And that's just about how long an adder waits before eating a marbled frog.

       On the other hand, the snakes wait for about 40 minutes before eating a Dahl's frog. That's enough time for the frog's toxin to break down into harmless substances.

       But even a quick strike gives a taste of the Dahl frog's toxin. After striking such a frog, a floodplain death adder thrashes(翻腾) around and lies on its back with its mouth open, It's like the snake has just had a mouthful of chili pepper.

      By comparison, when given frogs that have no chemical defenses, floodplain death adders eat their prey immediately after striking. Snakes, despite the fact that they’ve got this tiny pea-size  brain are clearly capable of recognizing what kind of frog they’ve bitten.

 

61.What’s the best title of the passage?

       A.A dangerous meal

       B.A snake――floodplain death adder

       C.Two types of frogs――Dahl’s Frog and Marbled Frog

       D.The method  of killing frogs

       A.sticking the snake’s head

       B.making a safe place to live in

       C.preventing anything from tying to attack it

       D.killing an attacking snake

64.From the passage we can conclude that           .

A.the Dahl’s frog carries enough poison to kill a snake but only if the snake eats it immediately

       B.the floodplain death adders only eat the Dahl’s frog and Marbled frog

       C.although the snakes have tiny pea size brain , they are cleverer than human beings

       D.both the Dahl’s frog and the marbled frog protect themselves by producing toxin

65.What’s the floodplain death adder’s method to make the frogs safe to eat ?

       A.They thrash around with their mouths open

       B.They sit back and wait for their preys to become safe to eat

       C.They inject poison on the preys and wait for the breaking down of their toxin and glue before eating them
