Conflicts between parent and child often center around the same issue. As children enter adolescence, they begin to demand greater freedom to go where they please, do what they please, and make decisions without parental interference. Many American parents do not know how to deal with their teenagers and seek advice from books, lectures, and parent training courses. Parents want to maintain a friendly relationship with their teenagers and also want to guide them so that their behavior will be whatever the parents consider proper and constructive.But in a society of rapidly changing social and moral values, parents and children often disagree about what is important and what is fight.Arguments may concern such unimportant matters as styles of dress or hairdos. But quarrels may also concern school work, after school jobs, decisions, use of the family car, dating, and sex behavior. Some families have serious problems with teenagers who drop out of school, run away from home, or use illegal drugs. Because so much publicity is given to the problem teenager, one gets the impression that all teenagers are troublemakers. Actually, relatively few adolescents do anything wrong, and nearly all grow up into "solid citizens" who fulfill most of their parents’ expectations. In fact, recent studies show that the "generation gap" is narrowing. The vast majority of teenagers share most of their parents’ values and ideas. Many parents feel that they get along with their adolescents quite well.第1题According to the writer, conflicts between husband and wife usually reflect ________A.feeling of hatredB.power struggleC.that they don´t care for each otherD.that they may appeal to divorce第2题As children enter adolescents, they begin to do the following EXCEPT________A.demanding greater freedom to go wherever they pleaseB.making decisions without parental interferenceC.getting married whenever they pleaseD.doing what they please第3题". . . generation gap is narrowing.

Food is weightless, just as men are.Food for space has to be packed in special ways. Some of it goes into tubes that a man can squeeze into his mouth. Bite-sized cookies are packed in plastic.There is a good reason for covering each bite. The plastic keeps pieces of food from traveling in the spaceship. On the earth very small pieces of food would simply fall to the floor. But gravity doesn´t pull them to the floor when they are out of the plastic in a spaceship. They move here and there and can get into a man´s eyes or into the spaceship´s instruments. If any of the instruments is blocked, the astronauts may have trouble getting safely home.As astronauts travel on longer space trips, he must take time to sleep. An astronaut can fit himself to his seat with a kind of seat belt. Or, if he wants to, he can sleep in a sleeping bag which is fixed in place under his seat. But be careful he must put his hands under the belt when he goes to sleep. This is because he is really afraid that he might touch one of controls that isn´t supposed to be touched until later.第6题Why would astronauts cover each bite of food in space?A.Because small pieces of food would fall down to the floor.B.Because weightless pieces of food might make trouble when they travel around.C.Because they haven´t enough food for longer trips.D.Because astronauts don´t want to waste food.第7题In a spaceship, astronauts can________A.walk just as they do on the earthB.not eat anything because it´s dangerousC.control the spaceship when they are sleepingD.not litter small things or it will make trouble第8题In what way is food for space packed?A.Very small pieces of food are put on the floor.B.Some of it is put into robes.C.Small-sized cookies are packed in plastic.D.Both B and C第9题Why does an astronaut put his hand under his belt when he sleeps?A.Because he thinks it is comfortable to sleep in that way in space.B.Because he doesn´t want to touch any controls when he sleeps.C.Because the instruments of the spaceship are easily broken.D.Because he is afraid that the seat will move.第10题The best title of this article is________.A.Eating and Sleeping in SpaceB.How Astronauts Eat in SpaceC.Food for SpaceD.How Astronauts Sleep in Space上一题下一题(11~15/共20题)Reading ComprehensionDirections: There are three passages in this part.

This involves placing flexible needles into certain parts of the body. The needles are available in a number of stores in China and anyone may buy them.To learn how to use the needles takes about one month of training, But to be skillful requires greater time. The person who performs the acupuncture knows how to put in the needles so the needles themselves are not painful. This person also knows where to place the needles so the patient feels no pain in the area where the operation is to be performed.A particular operation might require 25 or more needles placed in various parts of the body. But now this operation requires only 3 or 4 needles.Today, the Chinese doctors are trying to learn more about acupuncture. They are trying to develop a convincing theory to explain how the needles work in preventing pain, or why a nee die in the wrist, for example, would prevent the pain in the area of the mouth.A patient who needs an operation is given a choice between having acupuncture or having one of the chemicals used for putting him to sleep. It has been estimated that over half of the patients choose acupuncture because there is no sickness after the operation but the chemical may make the patient sick for a few hours or a day.第11题Acupuncture is________A.a medical operationB.a medical needleC.a medical techniqueD.a medical machine第12题Which statement is NOT tree of the performer of acupuncture?A.He knows where to place the needles without pain.B.He knows where the operation is to be performed.C.He knows how to perform the operation to cure the patient.D.He knows how to use the needles in an operation.第13题To learn how to use the needles, it takes a person________A.several monthsB.a couple of weeksC.a little timeD.almost one month第14题It can be learned from the passage that________A.the person performing the acupuncture knows a lot about the making of needlesB.an operation now needs fewer needles than in the pastC.acupuncture has existed in China for as long as 2,000 yearsD.few patients prefer acupuncture to chemicals第15题Which is implied but not stated in the passage?A.The Chinese mainly use acupuncture to cure strange disease.B.The Chinese are learning to be more skillful and efficient in acupuncture.C.The Chinese have spread acupuncture all over the world.D.Most Chinese patients prefer acupuncture to chemicals in curing diseases.上一题下一题(16~20/共20题)Reading ComprehensionDirections: There are three passages in this part.

But whether that causes any harm is not clear, scientists at the National Institute of Health said at a conference last month, adding that the study will not likely settle concerns of a link between cell phones and brain cancer. " What we showed is glucose(葡萄糖) metabolism(代谢) (a sign of brain activity) increases in the brain in people who were exposed to a cell phone in the area closest to the antenna," said Dr. Nora Volkow of the NIH, whose study was published in the Journal of the American Medical Association. The study was meant to examine how the brain reacts to electromagnetic fields caused by wireless phone signals.Volkow said she was surprised that the weak electromagnetic radiation(电磁辐射) from cell phones could affect brain activity, but she said the findings do not shed any light on whether cellphones cause cancer. "This study does not in any way indicate that. What the study does is to show the human brain is sensitive to electromagnetic radiation from cell phone exposures. " Use of the devices has increased dramatically since they were introduced in the early 1980s, with about 5 billion cell phones now in use worldwide.Some studies have linked cell phone exposure to an increased risk of brain cancers, but a large study by the World Health Organization did not offer a clear answer to this. Volkow´s team studied 47 people who had their brain examined while a cell phone was turned on for 50 minutes and another while the phone was turned off. While there was no complete change in brain metabolism, they found a 7 percent increase in brain metabolism in the region closest to the cell phone antenna when the phone was on.Experts said the results were interesting, but urged that they be understood with great care. " Although the biological significance, if any, of increased glucose metabolism from too much cell phone exposure is unknown, the results require further investigation," Henry Lai of the University of Washington in the U. S. and Dr. Lennart Hardell of University Hospital in Sweden, wrote in an article in JAMA. "Much has to be done to further investigate and understand these effects. " They wrote.第16题According to the passage, which of the following is TRUE?A.Cell phone use is dangerous.B.Cell phone use causes cancer.C.The human brain is an electromagnetic field.D.There are about 5 billion cell phone users in the world right now.第17题Doctor Volkow was astonished because________.A.her research has shed light on her understanding of cell phoneB.she found that cell phone exposure is harmful to human brainC.she found that using a cell phone for about 50 minutes could influence or change brain activityD.human brain is not responsive to electromagnetic radiation第18题According to the passage, cell phones were launched________.A.in the late 1970sB.between 1980 and 1985C.in the late 1980sD.in the early 1990S第19题What does the word "that" stand for in the second paragraph?A.Brain activity.B.Her research findings.C.The fact that cell phone use may cause cancer.D.Her research progress.第20题Which of the following is an appropriate title for this passage?A.Cell Phone Radiation: Is It Harmful?B.Cell Phone Radiation: Is It Useful?C.Cell Phone Radiation: Is It Healthy?D.Cell Phone Radiation: Is It Weak?上一题下一题(1/29)Vocabulary and StructureDirections: In this part there are 30 incomplete sentences.
