escape to the city. we lived on a farm and，in the winter especially, we were quite cut off from the outside world. as soon as i left school, i packed my bags and moved to the capital. however, i soon discovered that city life has its problems too.one big disadvantage is moneyit costs so much to go out，not to mention basics like food and housing. another disadvantage is pollution. i suffer from

is to go by bicycle，but that can be quite dangerous.of course there are advantages. first, there is so much to do in the city，whatever your tastes in culture or entertainment (娱乐活动). besides, there are wonderful jobs and greater chances of moving to a more important job or position. finally，if you like shopping, the variety of goods is very surprisingand, what is more, shops are often only a short walk away.is life better then，in the city? perhaps it is，when you are in your teens(十几岁)or twenties. however, as you get older，and especially if you have small children, the peace of the

with supportive parents. but when he was 15 he suddenly stopped trying. he left school at 16 with only two scores for secondary school subjects. one of the reasons that made it cool for him not to care was the power of his peer(同龄人) group.the lack of right male (男性的) role models in many of their lives at home and particularly in the school environment (环境) means that their peers are the only people they have to judge themselves against.they dont see men succeeding in society so it doesnt occur to them that they could make something of themselves.without male teachers as a role model, the effect of peer actions and street culture(文化) is allpowerful. boys want to be part of a club. however, schools can provide the environment for change, and provide the right role models for them. teachers need to be trained to stop that but not in front of a childs peers. you have to do it one to one，because that is when you see the real child.its pointless sending a child home if he or she has done wrong. they see it as a welcome day off to watch television or play computer games. instead, schools should have a special unit where a child who has done wrong goes for the day and gets advice about his problemssomewhere he can work away from his peers and go home after the other children.6. why did tom give up studying?a. he disliked his teachers.b. his parents no longer supported him.c. its cool for boys of his age not to care about studies.d. there were too many subjects in his secondary school.解析细节理解题。由第一段最后一句话“one of the reasons that made it cool for him not to care was the

environment.解析推理判断题。由第一段最后一句话和第二段内容“their peers are the only people they have to judge themselves against.”可推论出对于学生来说对他们产生很大影响的就是他们的同龄人。答案a8. what should schools do to help the problem schoolboys?a. wait for their change patiently.b. train leaders of their peer groups.c. stop the development of street culture.d. give them lessons in a separate area.解析推理判断题。由最后一段“instead，schools should have a special unit where a child who has done wrong goes for the day and gets advice about his problemssomewhere he can work away from his peers and go home after the other children.”可推论出学校应该为这样的学生设立独立的空间单元，来有针对性的采取措施解决他们的问题。答案d9. a teachers work is most effective with a schoolboy when he_.a. is with the boy aloneb. teaches the boy a lessonc. sends the boy home as punishmentd. works together with another teacher解析细节理解题。由第三段最后一句话“you have to do it one to one，because that is when you see the real child.”可知在单独面对和帮助这样的问题学生时，老师会看到他们最真实的一面，这样的方式最有效果。答案a【湖南省怀化市2013三模】b time (lost) will never come again. each age has its pleasures and its pains, and the happiest person is the one who enjoys what

childthings that have lost their interest for older people because they are too well-known. but a child has his parents, he is not so free to do what he wishes to do. he is continually being told not to do things or being punished for what he has done wrong. when the young man starts to earn his own living, he can no longer expect others to pay for his food, his clothes, and his room, but has to work if he wants to live comfortably. if he spends most of his time playing about in the way that he used to as a child, he will go hungry. and if he breaks the laws of society as he used to break the laws of his parents, he may go to prison. if, however, he works hard, keeps out of trouble and ha
