(2013·吉林省长春市高中毕业班第一次调研测试)
When was the last time you did something really fun with one of your parents—just the two of you?
Parents who take their young children to music，swimming and art classes often stop arranging such activities once their kids are older and in school all day.But it doesn’t have to be that way.Doing something enjoyable with your kids just might make
you look at each other in a whole new way，especially if you do it through a class or an event.When parent and child become students together，it puts them on the same level，at least for a while.
“I really like parents to come to class with their kids—they start sharing things and talking about what they’re doing and what they like，〞 said art teacher Pyper Dixon.
However，finding something new in common is a big choice for them，especially when kids get involved in sports and other after­school activities.But it’s possible to learn a new skill or hobby together.
That’s certainly true of Lauren,11，from Silver Spring，who is in Dixon’s class with her father，Dennis.“I was just going to drop her off，〞 Dennis said，“but Dixon persuaded me to stay.〞
Now Lauren gets to nag her father about doing his art homework.“He always leaves it to the last minute，〞she said.“But then he’ll turn around to do amazing drawings，〞she added.“We have different styles of drawing，so it’s interesting to talk it over with him.〞
Without the Saturday morning art class，Dennis said，he would be reading the paper，and Lauren would be on her own in her room or on the computer.But they talk more now.“I can’t think of an experience where you communicate with your kid so closely，〞 he said.
1．The author raises the question at the beginning to________.
A．expect an answer B．criticize some parents
C．introduce the topic D．support his argument
2．What does Dixon think is the benefit of parent and child studying art together? A．They will become equal.
B．They will communicate more.
C．The child will learn art much better.
D．The parent will learn something new.
3．The underlined word “nag〞 in the text probably means________.
A．urge B．help
C．ignore D．teach
4．We can learn from the text that________.
A．Lauren used to talk a lot with her father
B．Dennis enjoys studying art with Lauren
C．Lauren dislikes her father’s drawings
D．Dennis likes playing computer games

University.Kelly, 22, graduated last Sunday from Duke University.Tracy, 20, is a sophomore (二年级学生) at the University of Denver.The oldest, Maddy, 23, graduated from Berklee College of Music last year.
So what's the cost of putting five daughters through college？Beverly told ABC News $60，000 to $70，000 a year.In total, the family will spend about $1.5 million on college after taxes and that's not including graduate school.One daughter informed Marc that she now wants to seek her PhD.Marc is the best­selling author of Get Rich Click, and a multi­millionaire from Internet businesses.“We're fortunate that we can take care of it，〞Beverly said.“We decided a long time ago we didn't want the girls to take out college loans, so that was our commitment to them.〞
Marc and Beverly married five years ago, blending (融合) their own daughters into one big family of college­ready girls.Beverly said they wanted their daughters to have a choice of where they wanted to go to college, but having their children spread throughout the US created another expense—flying all of them home for holidays and visits.Just this week, Marc flew to North Carolina for Kelly's graduation, then to St.Louis for Shelly's graduation and hopes to make it back just in time to Houston for Mary Grace' s graduation tonight.
With the last child leaving home for college, Marc says he and Beverly are going to take a breather．“It's like wiping the sweat off the forehead now.It's time to think about what we can do.Perhaps we'll take a vacation abroad，〞 he said.
