5、ing how long the TV was on during the day and how often they feed 10their babies while watching TV.1.答案:likelikely考点 本题考查固定搭配。解析 be likely to do something是固定搭配，表示“很有可能做某事”。2.答案:watchingthat考点 本题考查同位语从句的用法。解析 先行词evidence的同位语从句应该由that引导，不能省略关系代词。3.答案:lessmore考点 本题考查篇章理解。解析 根据下文经常观看电视的孩子因为会吃很多不健康食品，导致肥

6、胖病(obesity)的发生，因此用more更符合上下文的意思。4.答案:wouldshould考点 本题考查虚拟语气的用法。解析 that引导的从句作为动词recommend(表示“建议，推荐”)的宾语从句，谓语动词应该用虚拟语气，即should do something，或者省略助动词should。5.答案:relatedlyrelatively考点 本题考查副词辨析。解析 relatedly表示“有关地，相关地”；relatively表示“相对地”。句中指父母们渴望用“相对”简单、快速的方法管教孩子，所以用后者更贴切。6.答案:HopeHoping考点 本题考查非谓语动词的用法。解析 h

9、所未读过的书，我应该利用所有时间，写我所要写的东西，但是我没能这样做。我的好多的时间都糊里糊涂的混过去了，“少壮不努力，老大徒伤悲。”例如我翻译莎士比亚，本来计划于课余之暇每年翻译两部，二十年即可完成，但是我用了三十年，主要的原因是懒。翻译之所以完成，主要的是因为活得相当长久，十分惊险。翻译完成之后，虽然仍有工作计划，但体力渐衰，有力不从心之感。假使年轻的时候鞭策自己，如今当有较好或较多的表现。然而悔之晚矣。答案:I muddled away lots of my time, but just as the old saying goes Laziness in youth spells re

When the translation is done, I still have other working plans, but I feel i
