单选题
It is natural for young people to he critical of their parents at times and to blame them for most of the misunderstandings between them. They have always complained, more or
21
justly, that their parents are out of touch
22
modem ways; that they are possessive and dominant;
23
they do not trust their children to deal with crises; that they
24
too much about certain problems—and that they have no
25
of humor, at least in parent-child relationships.
I think it is true that parents often
26
their teenage children and also forget how they themselves felt
27
young.
young people often irritate their parents with their
28
if clothes and hairstyles, in entertainers and music. This is not their
29
. They feel cut off from the adult world into which they have not
30
been accepted. So they create a culture and society of their own.
31
, if it turns out that their music or entertainers or vocabulary or clothes or hairstyles
32
their parents, this gives them additional enjoyment. They feel they are
33
, at least in a small way, and that they are leaders in style and
34
. Sometimes you are resistant, and proud because you do not want your parents to
35
of what you do. If they did approve, it looks as if you are
36
your own age group. But in that case, you are
37
that you are the underdog (失败者): you can"t win but at least you can keep your honor. This is a
38
way of looking at things. It is natural enough after long years of childhood,
39
you were completely under your parents" control. But it
40
the fact that you are now beginning to be responsible for yourself. So if you plan to control your life, cooperation can be part of that plan.
【正确答案】
C
【答案解析】[解析] 测试要点:固定搭配用法。more or less为固定搭配,意为“或多或少”。故答案只能为C。
【正确答案】
A
【答案解析】[解析] 测试要点:固定搭配用法。out of touch with为固定搭配用法,意为“对……不了解”,题句意为“他们的父母对现代生活方式不了解”。故A应为答案。
【正确答案】
D
【答案解析】[解析] 测试要点:引导从句的关系代词选择。整个第一段第二句实际上是五个并列句,主谓语均为“They have complained”,that引导一个宾语从句,后面四个句子省略了主谓语成分,答案应为D。
【答案解析】[解析] 测试要点:名词词义与逻辑意义选择。choices“选择”;hobbies“业余爱好”;likes“爱好,喜欢”;dislikes“不喜欢”。题句意为“年轻人常常在服装和发式、演员和音乐的选择上激怒自己的父母。”从后面所列举的4个名词,决定前面的选项应填入A choices;同时choice后面可以跟介词in,例如:I have no choice in this affair.在这件事上我没有选择的余地。
【答案解析】[解析] 测试要点:副词的习惯用法。在表示“还,仍然”意义时,副词already,still和yet均含此意,但already和still主要用于肯定句,而yet多用于否定句,同时用在完成时态句型中,例如:The doctor"s have not yet decided how the woman died.医生们尚未确定这位妇女的死因。而ever意为“曾经”,与题意不符,故可排除。答案为C。
