They turn their gyms into campsites for Moms and Dads, some of whom have traveled thousands of miles across the country, to say goodbye.For the past five years, Tianjin University in northern China has provided free acmodation for parents in what it calls “tents of love”. Other schools let parents sleep on mats in school gymnasiums.“Going to college is a life moment and my parents didnt want to miss that,” said Zhang Jinqi, a freshman at Tianjin University majoring in applied chemistry. His parents traveled with him on the 19-hour train journey from Jiangxi Province in southern China.Images of school gyms packed with parents have been widely shared on Chinese social media prompting a debate on whether Chinas only children are too coddled.Some have voiced criticisms of Tianjin University, saying that they think both the parents and the children should be more independent.Xiong Bingqi, deputy director of think-tank 21st Century Education Research Institute,thinks the problem is overstated. “It has always been a problem in China that at the start of every school year, colleges are packed with parents who e along to drop off their children and stay with them,” he said. “For some families, its their way to celebrate the first-ever family member whos able to go to college,”Xiong added. “Theres nothing wrong with sharing the happiness.”Zhangs father said the decision to escort their son was a no-brainer. He and his wife are among the many “campers” who sleep in the 550 temporary tents set up in Tianjin Universitys gym.“My child has lots of luggage and we also want to go traveling,” said his father Zhang Yonghui. “The hotels nearby are fully booked so I have to sleep in the tents.”Their son also shrugged off the criticisms although he said he was looking forward to living on his own for the first time. “Being acpanied by my parents doesnt mean Im spoiled.”4.Zhang Jinqi thought his parents acpanied him to his university mainly because.A.they wanted to help him with his luggageB.they wanted to go to travel in TianjinC.they doubted his independenceD.they wanted to witness his important life moment5.Xiong Bingqi thinks going to college in the pany of parents.A.is a chance for freshmen to travel with their parentsB.is not such a serious problem as people thinkC.is a long-lasting problem to solveD.is not good for freshmen to build up their independence6.The underlined phrase “shrugged off” probably means.A.was in favor ofB.was ashamed ofC.thought nothing ofD.was concerned about7.Whats the main idea of the passage?A.“Tents of love” is widely criticized.B.Chinese only children are too spoiled.C.Chinese college education is faced with a big challenge.D.There are different opinions on “tents of love”.答案語(yǔ)篇解讀文章介紹了中國(guó)大學(xué)開學(xué)季父母陪伴孩子上學(xué),許多高校為家長(zhǎng)提供免費(fèi)的“愛的帳篷”,以及對(duì)此引發(fā)的不同的看法。4.D細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第三段中的“Going to college is a life moment and my parents didnt want to miss that,” said Zhang Jinqi可知,Zhang Jinqi認(rèn)為父母陪他來大學(xué)報(bào)到是想見證他一生中的重要時(shí)刻,故選D項(xiàng)。5.B推理判斷題。根據(jù)第六段中的.thinks the problem is overstated.和“For some families, its their way to celebrate the first-ever family member whos able to go to college,”Xiong added. “Theres nothing wrong with sharing the happiness.”可知Xiong Bingqi認(rèn)為父母陪伴孩子上大學(xué)并不是什么大事,并不像人們想的那么嚴(yán)重,分享快樂沒錯(cuò)。故選B項(xiàng)。6.C詞義猜測(cè)題。根據(jù)最后一段中的“Being acpanied by my parents doesnt mean Im spoiled.”可知他認(rèn)為由父母陪伴并不意味著被寵壞了。由此推斷shrugged off意為“對(duì)不予理睬”,與thought nothing of同義,故選C項(xiàng)。7.D主旨大意題。文章介紹了大學(xué)開學(xué)季父母陪伴孩子上學(xué),許多高校為家長(zhǎng)提供免費(fèi)的“愛的帳篷”,以及對(duì)此引發(fā)的不同的看法。故選D項(xiàng)。C(2018吉林實(shí)驗(yàn)中學(xué)考前模擬)When I was in the fourth grade, I worked part-time as a paper boy. Mrs. Stanley was one of my customers. Shed watch me ing down her street, and by the time Id biked up to her doorstep, there would be a cold drink waiting. Id sit and drink while she talked.Mrs. Stanley talked mostly about her dead husband. “Mr. Stanley and I went shopping this morning,” shed say. The first time she said that, soda (汽水) went up my nose.I told my father how Mrs. Stanley talked as if Mr. Stanley were still alive. Dad said she was probably lonely, and that I ought to sit and listen and nod my head and smile, and maybe shed work it out of her system. So thats what I did, and it turned out Dad was right. After a while she seemed content to leave her husband over at the cemetery (墓地).I finally quit delivering newspapers and didnt see Mrs. Stanley for several years. Then we crossed paths at a church fund-raiser(募捐活動(dòng)). She was spooning mashed potatoes and looking happy. Four years before, shed offer her paper boy a drink to have someone to talk with. Now she had friends. Her husband was gone, but life went on.I am living in the city now, and my paper boy is a lady named Edna with three kids. She asks me how Im doing. When I dont say “fine”, she sticks around to hear my problems. Shes lived in the city for most of her life, but she knows about munity. munity isnt so much a place as it is a state of mind. You find it whenever people ask you how youre doing because they care, and not because theyre getting paid to do so. Sometimes its good to just smile, nod your head and listen.8.Why did soda go up the authors nose one time?A.Because he was talking fast.B.Because he was absent-minded.C.Because he was in a hurry.D.Because he was shocked.9.Why did the author sit and listen to Mrs. Stanley according to Paragraph 3?A.Because he took the chance to rest.B.Because he wanted to be helpful.C.Because he enjoyed the drink.D.Because he tried to please his dad.10.Which of the following can replace the underlined phrase “work it out of her system”?A.Speak out about her past.B.Move out of the neighborhood.C.Turn to her old friends.D.Recover from her sadness.11.What does the author think people should do in a munity?A.Care about one another.B.Depend on each other.C.Pay for others help.D.Open up to others.答案語(yǔ)篇解讀作者通過親身經(jīng)歷告訴我們應(yīng)該互相關(guān)心,有時(shí)候,微笑、點(diǎn)頭、傾聽是件好事。8.D推理判斷題。根據(jù)第二段中的Mrs. Stanley talked mostly about her dead husband. “Mr. Stanley and I went shopping this morning,” shed say.和第三段中的Mrs. Stanley talked as if Mr. Stanley were still alive可知Stanley夫人說她已去世的丈夫今天上午和她去購(gòu)物了,說得好像他還活著一樣。作者被她說的話嚇著了,所以喝的蘇打水嗆到了鼻子里。故選D項(xiàng)。9.B推理判斷題。根據(jù)第三段中的Dad said she was probably lonely, and that I ought to sit and listen and nod my head and smile和So thats what I did, and it turned out Dad was right.可知父親告訴我Stanley夫人是因?yàn)樘聠瘟?我應(yīng)該坐下來聽她訴說并點(diǎn)頭微笑。所以作者那樣做是為了對(duì)Stanley夫人有所幫助,故選B項(xiàng)。10.D句意猜測(cè)題。此處指Stanley夫人太孤單了,我應(yīng)該坐下來聽她訴說并點(diǎn)頭微笑。我這樣做可能會(huì)幫助她從悲傷中走出來,故選D項(xiàng)。11.A推理判斷題。根據(jù)最后一段中的munity isnt so much a place as it is a state of mind. You find it whenever people ask you how youre doing because they care, and not because theyre getting paid to do so.

Happy Meals are at the low end of the scale. With the help of business, schools are also giving away cars, iPods, seats to basketball games, andin a growing number of casescold, hard cash. The appeal of such programs is obvious, but the consequences of tying grades to goods are still uncertain. Its been a mon tradition in middle-class families to reward top grades with cash as a way to teach that success in school leads to success in life. But for many disadvantaged minority children, the long-term benefits of getting an education are not so clear, according to experts.No one knows for sure how well cash and other big-ticket rewards work in education in the long run. But there are plenty of concerns that the kind of practice could have negative effects on kids. Virginia Shiller, a clinical psychologist, says that its worth experimenting with cash encouragements but that tying them to success on a test is not a worthwhile goal. “Id rather see rewards based on effort and responsibility things that will lead to success in life,” she says.Even if rewards dont lead to individual achievement on a test, they could have a meaningful effect in the school. Charles McVean, a businessman and philanthropist(慈善家), started a tutoring program which pays higher-achieving students $10 an hour to tutor struggling classmates and divides them into teams. During the course of the year, students bond(團(tuán)結(jié)) and pete. The team posting the highest math scores wins the top cash prize of $100.McVean calls the bination of peer tutoring, petition, and cash encouragements a recipe for “nothing less than magic”.For its part, the Seminole County Public School System in Florida plans to continue its report card encouragement program through the rest of the school year. The local McDonalds restaurants help the poor district by paying the $1,600 cost of printing the report card. Regina Klaers, the district spokeswoman, says most parents dont seem bothered by the Happy Meals rewards. “There are many ways we try to urge students to do well, and sometimes its through the stomach, and sometimes its the probability of students winning a car,” she says. “One size doesnt fit all.”12.According to the text, it is a mon practice for schools to .A.offer free meals to students with high scoresB.tie students grades to material rewardsC.educate students to form a business senseD.cooperate with business to improve teaching13.According to the text, the long-term results of giving students cash as rewards in education are. A.negativeB.optimisticC.uncertainD.disappointing14.The tutoring program run by Charles McVean.A.hires some excellent teachers to teach struggling studentsB.has a meaningful effect in inspiring students enthusiasm on studyC.is a program bining tutoring, petition and future job offersD.rewards the students with the highest scores with the top cash prize of $10015.We can learn that in Seminole County.A.there are various ways to inspire students to study hardB.many parents are not satisfied with the Happy Meals rewardsC.the local McDonalds restaurants provide the rewards for poor studentsD.people are searching for a good-for-all method to urge students to do well答案語(yǔ)篇解讀為了激勵(lì)學(xué)生努力學(xué)習(xí)并取得好成績(jī),學(xué)校和家長(zhǎng)都在采取措施,其中一項(xiàng)措施就是物質(zhì)獎(jiǎng)勵(lì)。這樣做會(huì)帶來什么樣的結(jié)果呢?12.B細(xì)節(jié)理解題。由第一段第一句中的schools are urging kids to work harder by offering them obvious encouragements和倒數(shù)第二句Its been a mon tradition in middle-class families to reward top grades with cash as a way to teach that success in school leads to success in life.可知,現(xiàn)在的學(xué)校普遍喜歡用物質(zhì)獎(jiǎng)勵(lì)來鼓勵(lì)學(xué)生好好學(xué)習(xí),因此B項(xiàng)中提到的“將學(xué)生的成績(jī)和物質(zhì)獎(jiǎng)勵(lì)聯(lián)系起來”符合文意。13.C推理判斷題。由第二段第一句 No one knows for sure how well cash and other big-ticket rewards work in education in the long run.可知,就長(zhǎng)期來看,人們對(duì)這種給予物質(zhì)獎(jiǎng)勵(lì)以達(dá)到激勵(lì)學(xué)生學(xué)習(xí)的方式對(duì)教育的影響還不能確切地了解。因此 uncertain 正確。negative 意為“消極的,負(fù)面的”,optimistic 意為“樂觀的,積極的”,disappointing 意為“失望的”,均不符合文意。14.B細(xì)節(jié)理解題。由第三段倒數(shù)第三句During the course of the year, students bond(團(tuán)結(jié)) and pete.可知,通過 Charles McVean 的這個(gè)指導(dǎo)項(xiàng)目,學(xué)生們聯(lián)系在了一起并且相互之間競(jìng)爭(zhēng)著學(xué)習(xí),因此在激勵(lì)學(xué)生學(xué)習(xí)熱情上有重要的影響。故B項(xiàng)正確。15.A推理判斷題。根據(jù)最后一段第四句“There are many ways we try to urge students to do well.” 可知,在 Seminole County,有很多種激勵(lì)學(xué)生努力學(xué)習(xí)的方式,故A項(xiàng)正確。
