15、ions is to give their children a personal worth.

22、 owe (欠) their children a college education.But they neednt feel guilty if they cant.” 父母不欠子女大学教育.如果他们承担不起大学教育,也不必感到内疚,可知,作者认为,如果父母不能送子女上大学,也不必感到内疚。故选D。 (2)考查词义猜测。根据第一段中的“If they want to do it, it must be considered a favor, not an obligation. ”如果他们想这样做,就必须把它看作一种恩惠,而不是义务, 这一句中的“favor”意为“恩惠、帮忙”相反意思应为
23、“义务、责任”,所以可以判断“obligation”应是“义务”之意,同时“obligation”和前一句“They do not have the duty to look after their grandchildren, either.” 他们也没有义务照顾孙子孙女,这一句里的“duty”是近义词,属于词义重现用法。故选C。 (3)考查细节理解。根据第三段中的“Of course they should be properly corrected when they do wrong, but its often better to let children learn their m
24、istakes by themselves in time.” 当然,如果孩子做错了,他们应该得到适当的纠正,但是最好是让孩子们自己及时地知道他们的错误,可知,当孩子犯错时,父母应该让孩子自己及时了解错误。故选B。 (4)考查主旨大意。根据第一段中的“Parents do not owe (欠) their children a college education.”从父母送子女上大学,帮忙买房子或照看孙辈等琐事引入主题,说明这些并不是父母真正的职责;以及第三段中的“One of their obligations is to give their children a personal wo
25、rth.” 他们的义务之一是给孩子们个人的价值和最后一段中的“Parents owe their children a set of solid values around which to build their lives.” 父母有义务为孩子建立一套坚实的价值观,并以此来构建他们的生活。可知,父母真正要给予孩子的是个人价值和正确的价值观,这才是父母真正的职责,所以文章主要讲父母的职责。故选A。 【点评】本题考点涉及细节理解,词义猜测和主旨大意三个题型的考查,是一篇教育类阅读,考生需要准确捕捉细节信息,同时根据上下文进行逻辑推理,概括归纳,从而选出正确答案。3阅读理解 My challen
26、ge for you is this: to read a book for 15minutes every single day for a month. Let me explain a bit by telling you where the challenge came from. I have many things in common with my dad, like music taste and sense of humor, but sadly reading isnt one of them. I can happily spend a whole day with a
27、book, but my dad cant read a book for longer than about 5 minutes. He reads emails, websites and papers for work, but not books. Hes busy, so I think sitting down to read for just 15 minutes a day is a good way to relax and to introduce him to reading. My dad is not the only person who avoids books.
28、 I know lots of people would rather relax on their computers or in front of the TV. Everyone is different and has their own interests, but I think there are lots of benefits to reading, which screenbased activities dont have. Firstly, its better for your eyes. Looking at screens can be very stressfu
29、l for your eye muscles, and clearly you should avoid looking at screens for an hour before bed, to get a good nights sleep. One thing I personally love reading, is being transported to another worldI often forget the time or things around me! Reading is a great way to switch off before you go to bed
30、, because you think more about the world of the book, rather than the real world, so you can truly relax. I know you can be transported to a different world in a film or a TV show, but I think books do it better. I also enjoy hearing what people are doing and finding out what they think. Reading giv
31、es me the chance to get to know hundreds of new people! It also teaches you to see things from other peoples point of view, and understand other peoples decisions or opinions. With a book, you can hear everything a character is thinking or feelingyou really can be inside someone elses head! So give
32、it a go! Take 15 minutes when you are waking up, going to bed, eating lunch, or having a coffee. If you read a lot, why not try 15 minutes of an English book, or pass the challenge on to someone else? Good luck, and happy reading!(1)The author mentions his father in the text to show.
