(2017·广东省“六校联盟”第三次联合考试)When it comes to parenting, Chinese fathers say the most important role they play is that of the family chauffeur.In a survey of 500 Chinese fathers released earlier this week by communications company JWT, respondents ranked driving their children to extracurricular activities and to school first
and
second,
respectively,
as
the
main
childcare responsibilities of the male in the family.More than twothirds of Chinese fathers surveyed said they saw these tasks as their responsibilities, not their wives'.
Fathers ranked handling doctor visits, disciplining children and helping with homework third through fifth on the list of daddy jobs.
Zhang Xiaoyan, a housewife in Shanghai, complained that driving the children is the only task her husband does at home.“Men are under greater stress to support the family by working long hours, so they want ‘easy’tasks that don't involve a lot of thinking,” she said.
“Since those long hours prevent many fathers from spending much time with their children, they don't want to be the one to scold them for not doing their homework,” she added.
“They want to make up for not being there most of the time, and they want to be the good cop,”
Ms.Zhang said. “So moms are always the bad cop, which is fine because kids have a stronger bonding with us.”
Kids have long been an obsession in China, but the chatter (喋喋不休) about family has increased this past week after the government announced that it would ease restrictions on its longstanding policy of restricting most families to having just one child.Fathers' roles have also been featured in the media limelight in recent weeks after a reality show called Where Are We Going, Dad? became a hit last month on Chinese television and the online video site Tudou.
The show, which is an adaptation of a Korean reality series of the same name, takes five celebrity dads and their young kids to the countryside where the fatherson duos
compete against one another in various tasks.
Many Chinese moms, like Ms.Zhang, have encouraged their husbands to watch the show, hoping it will inspire them to be more active in parenting duties.
1.What does the underlined word “chauffeur” in the first paragraph mean?
A.Breadwinner.
B.Car driver.
C.Homework instructor.
D.Housework participant.
2.With heavy workloads, Chinese fathers would do the following EXCEPT________.
A.voicing their anger when kids fail to do their homework
B.devoting most of their time to their career
C.making up for their absence from parenting duties
D.only taking family tasks that don't demand much thinking
3.The show Where Are We Going, Dad? highlights________.
A.the teamwork spirit of the participants
B.the wisdom of kids
C.the important role of fathers
D.the conflicts between parents and kids
4.What can be inferred from the passage?
A.The Chinese government would ease restrictions on its family plan policy.
B.Where Are We Going, Dad? is most popular among kids.
C.Chinese fathers value their work more than parenting.
D.Chinese wives expect more help from their husbands in raising kids.
答案
Ⅰ.
A
1.解析:distant 考查形容词。根据语法可知,空白处修饰的是名词,应该用distance的形容词形式distant。
2.解析:who 考查关系代词。分析句子结构可知,此处指代的是前面的“the city mouse”,关系词在从句中作主语,在此用拟人手法,故应用关系代词who来引导非限制性定语从句。
3.解析:invitation 考查名词。分析句子结构可知,此空作accepted的宾语,应该使用invite的名词形式invitation。
4.解析:that 考查连词。surprised后面是宾语从句,从句句子成分完整,故引导词用that。
5.解析:and 考查连词。根据语境可知,此处表示并列关系,应用并列连词and。
6.解析:they 考查代词。根据上文可知,此处指的是上文提到的那两只老鼠,应用代词they。
7.解析:is coming 考查动词的时态。根据语境可知,此处表示“猫就要来了”,应用现在进行时表示一般将来时。
8.解析:Breathing 考查分词作状语。根据下文中的“said to”可知,空格处作伴随状语,因为“the country mouse”与breathe之间存在主谓关系,故应用breathe的现在分词形式。
9.解析:back 考查语境逻辑。根据上下文可知,此处指的是乡下老鼠对城里老鼠说他还是回到乡下的家里去吧,故应用back。
10.解析:peacefully 考查副词。分析句子结构可知,此处修饰的是谓语动词live,应用peace的副词形式peacefully。
B
1.解析:missing 考查形容词。由前面的a和后面的名词“credit card”可知,此处应用动词miss的形容词形式missing作定语,表示“丢失的,失踪的”。
2.解析:name 考查名词。根据下文的回答“Janet Wilson.”可知,此处该填名词name。
3.解析:an 考查不定冠词。根据下文的“American citizen”可知,此处表示你不是一位美国公民,故应用不定冠词,又因为American是以元音音素开头的单词,故填不定冠词an。
4.解析:Italian 考查词性转换。根据上文的“American citizen”可知,此处表示“我”是意大利人,故用Italian。
5.解析:was lost 考查系表结构。分析句子结构可知,say后是宾语从句,从句中缺少谓语动词,且根据提示词lose可知,此处应用系表结构,而且丢失这一动作发生在过去,故用一般过去时。又因为主语为“your card”,故填was lost。
6.解析:on 考查副词。try sth.on表示“试穿(衣物)”。
7.解析:When 考查疑问副词。由下文的“I didn't discover it until I went to pay.”可知,此处表示你什么时候发现信用卡被偷的,故用when提问,且该单词首字母必须大写。
8.解析:may 考查情态动词。由上文的“I guess”可知,此处应用情态动词may,表示“可能”。
9.解析:Don't 考查助动词。根据语境可知,此处表示不必担心,故用Don't。
10.解析:informing 考查动名词。根据介词by及作宾语的“the bank”可知,此处应用动名词informing
Ⅱ.1.解析:选C 根据上文“Most people hate to be criticized; most people hate to fail.”可知,大多数人不喜欢被批评和失败,这样的人应该不会接受批评和失败。第二段又提到“accept criticism with an open mind”可知,作者建议大家接受批评。由此可推知,人们对于批评和失败的回应是不同的。
2.解析:选A 根据下文“criticism which is good and valuable”可知,作者告诉其他人接受好的、有价值的批评。
3.解析:选B 根据下文“because the criticism enables me to improve”可知,作者尊重那些批评他的人,因为这些批评让作者成长。
4.解析:选A 根据下文“No problem, Prof.”可知,作者这里是说他的教授。
5.解析:选D 根据上文“I like your ideas”可知,教授喜欢作者的想法,看到了作者写作中的进步。
6.解析:选A 作者相信通过批评可以学得更好,并想提高自己。
7.解析:选C 根据下文“the harsher the criticism was, the better it was for me”可知,对作者的批评越严厉越好。由此可知,作者是欢迎批评的。8.解析:选D 根据上文“I started writing.”及下文“someone else to read”可知,作者开始写作,他将他的作品给别人看。
9.解析:选A 根据上文“I'd also advise them to be very critical of it ...”可知,作者也建议别人狠狠地批评他的作品,并讲真话,即“to be honest”。10.解析:选B 如果作者写的东西都是废话,那么看的人应该如实相告。
11.解析:选C 作者宁愿修改他的作品,而不愿别人问他到底写什么。
12.解析:选B 根据下文“accept criticism with an open mind”可知,当你的老师或父母批评你时,你应该保持冷静,虚心地接受批评。
13.解析:选C 前后为转折句意。接受实在的批评,而不是轻描淡写的批评。
14.解析:选D 根据上下文“you can challenge him/her ...you are right”可推知,当你相信真理的时候,你可以质疑(提出批评的)人。
15.解析:选A 根据上文并列连词“or”可知,此处为“或你有事实证明你是对的。”
16.解析:选B 根据下文“not negative”可知,作者意识到批评与失败是两个积极的因素。
17.解析:选C 根据下文“and you will fail many times”可知,一个人在学习的过程中会遇到批评,会失败很多次。
18.解析:选D 根据上文可知,你要习惯批评。
19.解析:选B 根据下文“...from appreciating criticism and failure has improved ...and helped my mind mature”可知,作者从欣赏批评和错误中得到收获。
20.解析:选D 根据下文“helped my mind mature”可知,帮助作者心智成熟,即提高了作者的思维能力。
Ⅲ.1.解析:选B 词义猜测题。根据第二段中的“respondents ranked driving their children to extracurricular activities and to school first and second”可知,受访者将开车送孩子参加课外活动和开车送孩子上学排在前两位,所以该词应表示“汽车司机”。2.解析:选A 细节理解题。根据第五段中的“they don't want to be the one to scold them for not doing their homework”可知,他们不希望自己是那个因孩子没有做作业而训斥他们的人,所以选择A。3.解析:选C 推理判断题。根据倒数第二、三两段可知,真人秀节目《爸爸去哪儿?》侧重于父亲在养育子女方面的角色,因此选择C。
4.解析:选D 推理判断题。根据最后一段可知,许多中国妻子鼓励丈夫看《爸爸去哪儿?》,希望该节目能给他们启发,使其更积极地参与到养育子女的义务中。由此可推知,中国妻子希望在养育子女方面得到丈夫更多的帮助。
