questions or unfinished statements. for each of them there are four choices marked a, b, c and d. choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage.aparents, our first teachers, play a highly significant role in our lives. however, doesnt it seem that many of us come to have conflicts with them when we start high school? were less likely to listen to them and take their suggestionswe even rebel against them. why? it may be the so-called generation gap. a generation gap appears when we begin to feel our parents are ignoring us, dont understand us, and we feel we can no longer share our feelings with them. the key reason is our desire for independence. in senior high school, we start to want to take responsibility for our own lives and make our own decisions. but parents resist this. they still want to control us and try to force us to do things they think we should do. debate and discussion often come to nothing. gradually, we talk with them less, and keep our feelings locked up inside. zhang xiaoyun, 16, of ningbo, zhejiang, has talked less and less with her mother since she started senior high school. she believes studies should be my priority（优先）, not my inner world, zhang said. each day, she asks me the same old questions like, how was your last exam? or have you made any progress in physics? to zhang, these questions are annoying and so she always tries to ignore them and answers indifferently. sometimes, when i get upset, i quarrel with her. after, she comes to apologize and comfort me. but i know, she doesnt completely understand me, zhang said. now, a home that was once full of laughter has fallen into gloom and silence. the generation gap can be harmful. because of the lack of communication, our parents no longer know what we are thinking about. there are quarrels, even over trivial things. when that happens, we may not be able to concentrate on our studies. some of us even become afraid to go home after school a very serious situation for the whole family. 56. which of the following is not included in article?a. the causes of generation gap.b. the effects of generation gap. c. one example of generation gap.d. ways of narrowing generation gap. 57. which of the following is the real reason for the generation gap according to the passage?a. modern society changing very fast. b. parents having unrealistic hopes of their children. c. parents and kids not understanding and respecting each other. d. young people liking to escape from the control of their parents. 58. which of the following word has the closet meaning to the underlined word indifferently?a. similarly b. uninterestedly c. attentively d. seriously59. what can we learn from xiao zhangs example?a. xiao zhang and her mother will apologize to and comfort each other whenever they have a quarrel.b. there has never been any laughter in her house.c. her mother always asks different and annoying questions.d. xiao zhang thinks her inner world should be considered first rather than her studies.60. in the view of the author, _.a. parents should allow their children more freedomb. parents and children should not stay togetherc. the younger generation should value the older generationd. academic records are more important than ones inner world b we all know that humans are damaging the environment, but what can we do about it? some people are trying to do what they can to try to be more environmentally friendly. local governments in britain encourage green living, such as recycling paper, tin, plastic and glass. they want to reduce the amount of rubbish going into landfill sites(填埋场), because they are running out of places to dump rubbish. in some areas rubbish for recycling is collected from your doorstep, but in other areas, you have to take it to a special recycling place, such as a bottle bank. another way of reducing the amount of rubbish you create is to use reusable products instead of disposable(一次性用的)ones. for example, some people use strong shopping bags or boxes for their food instead of plastic shopping bags, or use something washable instead of disposables.more people are becoming interested in reducing their carbon emissions(排放)by cycling, using public transport or an electric car, rather than driving gas-guzzling vehicles(费油的交通工具). some people choose not to fly to go on holiday because planes are the biggest producers of carbon emissions. you can make green choices when buying food too. its best to buy food which was locally grown or produced so that it hasnt been imported by air, or transported long distances by road. houses can be environmentally friendly too. it takes less energy to heat a house. you can also create your own energy if you can use solar or wind though these can be expensive. you can also save water by using rain water for washing the car or watering the garden. its even possible to use a system where grey water water which has been through a tap once already, is used to flush(冲洗)toilets. some new housing projects are being built to be as environmentally friendly as possible. 61. what can we know from paragraph 2? a. recycling can bring about great economic profits. b. recycling can save lots of space for human beings c. recycling can decrease pollution of environment d. recycling can be of great value to the facts above62.

life is being destroyed by fishing boats as well. third, the worlds population has grown by six times what it was in 1800. as a result, we need more land to live on and more food to eat.on the contrary, other people have this belief that a healthy environment and development should be possible at the same time. in their opinion, what we need are better laws to preserve the environment and still allow our country to grow. for example, those factories 它们污染环境 should have to pay higher taxes according to the laws.66. it is our duty to cut back on production67. 世界上的大片区域被化学废物破坏了68. the

protect children web fans from unsuitable material online while encouraging them to use the internet has long been discussed in the us.for some parents, the internet can seem like a jungle(丛林），filled with danger for their children. but jungles contain wonders as well as danger and with good guides, some education, and a number of precautions (预防), the wilds of the internet can be safely navigated. “kids have to be online. if we tell our kids they cant be allowed to surf the internet, were cutting them off from their future,” said an expert.most kids have started to use search engines. many of them are great for finding tons of interesting internet sites, and they can also locate places where you might not want your kids to go. there are search engines designed just for kids. a certain software contains only sites that have been selected as safe. the most popular way would be to use what is known as a “content screener”. but this cant be wholly reliable (可靠), and the best thing parents can do is to talk to their kids and let them know what is ok or not ok to see or do on the internet. another way is that mum or dad is nearby when the child is surfing the internet. a few other tips:-dont put the pc（personal computer) in a childs room but keep it in an area where mum or dad can keep an eye on things. that also makes the internet more of a family activity.-ask your child what he or she has been doing and about any friends they make online.-tell your child not to reveal(透漏）online strangers personal information, especially like address and phone number.and tell your children never to talk to anyone they meet online over the phone, send them anything, accept anything from them or agree to meet with them unless you go along.title：american children going
