【参考范文】
As we can see in the picture, Xiaoming is busy with his homework while his mother is fanning him to make him cool and comfortable.
The picture implies the parents are indulgent with their children. For example, like the picture, they do everything for their children to create a good opportunity for their children to involve in their study, which most children are willing to accept.
I don’t approve of what the parents do. Surely there comes a time when everyone has to leave the parental nest, look after themselves and pay their own way in life. Therefore, the parents are required to be aware that a great love and concern means providing a good chance for their children to fly higher instead of spoiling
or restricting them. Certainly it’s better to take action now.
三、阅读理解
20. The year 2114 will be an eventful one for art. In May of that year in Berlin, the philosopher-artist Jonatho n Keats’ “century cameras” – cameras with a 100-year-long exposure (曝光）time – will be brought back from hiding places around the city to have their results developed and exhibited. Six months after that, the Future Library in Oslo, Norway, will open its doors for the first time, presenting 100 books printed on the wood of trees planted in the distant past of 2014.
As Katie Paterson, the creator of the Future Library, puts it: “Future Library is an artwork for future generations.” These projects, more than a century in the making, are part of a new wave of “slow art” intended to push viewers and participants to think beyond their own lifetimes. They aim to challenge today’s short-term thinking and the brief attention spans of modern consumers, forcing people into considering works more deliberately. In their way, too, they are fighting against modern culture – not just regarding money, but also the way in which artistic worth is measured by attention.
In a similar fashion, every April on Slow Art Day, visitors are encouraged to stare at five works of art for 10 minutes at a time – a tough task for the average museum visitor, who typically spends less than 30 seconds on each piece of art.
Like the Future Library, the century cameras are very much a project for c ities, since it’s in cities that time runs fastest and the pace of life is fastest. “Since I started living in a city, I’ve somehow been quite disconnected,” Anne Beate Hovind, the Future Library project manager, who described how working on the library drew her back to the pace of life she knew when she was growing up on a farm in her youth, told The Atlantic magazine.
8. According to the first paragraph, what will NOT happen in 2114?
A. The Future Library will be open to the public for the first time.
B. A camera which was produced 100 years ago will be exhibited.
C. Photos with a 100-year exposure time will be developed and exhibited.
D. Books printed on the wood of trees planted in 2014 will be displayed.
9. What can we learn about today’s people’s attit ude toward works of art?
A. They spend little time on works.
B. They consider works deliberately.
C. They spend much money on works.
D. They stare at works for 10 minutes at a time.
10. What is the purpose of the wave of slow art?
A. To advocate creating works of art slowly.
B. To encourage people to consider works more deliberately.
C. To protect works of art from being damaged.
D. To promote works of art for modern culture.
11. How would Anne Beate Hovind feel about the city life?
A. It’s busy.
B. It’s a wful.
C. It’s developed.
D. It’s discouraging.

8. B 9. D 10. B 11. A
