past year,i stood with my son,james,in our driveway,watching our neighbors hurry off to kindergarten. my wife and i wanted to give james the best education,but that meant wed have to change our jobs and spend less time with our kid. i asked myself,“would this trade-off be worth it?” when i look at the research on child development,i think it might not. where our kids go to school might matter less than most american parents think.social scientists have long tried to determine why some children grow up to be successful. in a 2001 study,greg duncan,a professor of education at the university of california,measured the influence that the people in a childs life have on how well the child does in school. duncan and his team found almost no relationship between how students did on the test and whom they sat beside in class,whom they hung out with after school and who lived in their block. the only meaningful link they found was between siblings (兄弟姐妹) and twins in particular.for a long time,scholars thought that a familys income heavily affected how well kids did in life. but that might not be the case. when susan mayer at the university of chicago looked at the relationship between family income and lifetime achievement,she ran a series of experiments to measure it,finding such outcomes werent caused by income. she argued that the things that make a difference are relatively inexpensive:the number of books a kid has or how often his family goes to museums.lareau,another scholar began one of the most in-depth observations of american parenting. he concluded that success is much more related to the amount of time parents spend with their children. he said “many parents i interviewed are anxious about their childrens future. but they have exaggerated (夸大) the sense of the risks involved if they dont give their children the best of everything.”so at last,we decided to leave things as they were. more time with our kid is the best we can provide.1.the first paragraph is intended to .a.confirm the result of a researchb.introduce the topic of the passagec.stress the importance of good educationd.support a research on child development2.from the passage we know that most american parents .a.spend a lot of time with their childrenb.like to buy a variety of books for their childrenc.think childrens achievement largely depends on schoolsd.believe their income cannot afford childrens education3.who believes childrens brothers and sisters may influence their academic performance?() a.lareau.b.james.c.susan mayer.d.greg duncan.4.which of the following can be the best title of the passage?()a.parents time matters to childrens futureb.school education determines childrens futurec.family income counts on childrens achievementsd.less education means more risks for childrens success(b)(2015内蒙古赤峰高三最后一模)【社会文化类】as wild animal lovers are not content with watching tigers and gorillas (大猩猩) during the day,a growing number of zoos in the us are offering a more thrilling after-dark experienceovernight stays.the philadelphia zoo is americas first zoo and home to more than 1,300 animals.it has been running its roars and snores overnight programs for about 20 years.the most popular theme program is the night flight overnight program where children aged 5 to 12 sleep in the zoos tree house.the overnight stays are not only popular with young children.most overnight stays include a night tour during which youngsters experience the mysterious sights and unusual sounds of the zoo.a midnight snack and breakfast are also served.“it is a unique experience to be at the zoo without the crowds and additional noise,”explained patterson,director of the denver zoo,which has been running its bunk with beasts program since many years ago.with nearly 4,000 animals and 700 species the zoo attracts more than 1.8 million visitors a year.“the things you hear and see in the zoo are completely different,”said patterson.on the two-hour tour of the zoo,night vision scopes (范围) are provided so guests can see nocturnal (夜间活动的) animals such as owls,and indoor educational games increase the learning experience.patterson said parents tend to be more worried about leaving their children than the children themselves.they have rarely had to call up a parent in the middle of the night.“they love it,”patterson said about the children.“for many,its their first overnight stay away from home.they are so excited that by the end of the day they are so tired that they have no opportunity to worry.”“guests at the new overnight program at the queens zoo make breakfast treats for animals,and watch the keepers feed them to the animals,”said education curator tome hurtubise.the growing popularity of overnight programs has caused zoos that only serve daytime visitors to think again.the queens zoo,which started their program this year,is so pleased with its success that they want to continue it next year.5.what can overnight visitors in the zoo do at
