7．阅读理解
As you grow older, you'll be faced with some challenging decisions-like whether to cut class or try cigarettes. Making decisions on your own is hard enough, but when other people take part in and try to pressure you one way or another it can be even harder. People who are your age, like your classmates, are called peers. When they try to influence how you act, to get you to do something, it's called peer pressure.
Peers can have a positive influence on each other. Maybe another student in your science class taught you an easy way to remember the planets in the solar system（太阳系）. Maybe you got others excited about your new favorite book, and now everyone's reading it. These are examples of how peers positively influence each other.
Sometimes peers influence each other in negative ways. For example, a few kids in school might try to get you to cut class with them. Your soccer friend might try to convince（使信服）you to be mean to another player and never pass him the ball.
It is tough to be the only one who says "no" to peer pressure, but you can do it. Paying attention to your own feelings and beliefs about what is right and wrong can help you know the right thing to do.
You've probably had a parent or teacher advising you to "choose your friends wisely." Peer pressure is a big reason why they say this. If you choose friends who don't cut class, smoke cigarettes, or lie to their parents, then you probably won't do these things either, even if other kids do.
If you continue to face peer pressure and you're finding it difficult to deal with, talk to someone you trust. Don't feel guilty（内疚） if you've made a mistake or two.
（1）What does the word "him" in bold in Paragraph 3 refer to?
A. Another player.
B. Your soccer friend.
C. Your father.
D. Your teacher.
（2）The underlined word "tough" in Paragraph 4 is closest in meaning to .
A. difficult
B. wise
C. helpful
D. impolite
（3）Which of following may help deal with peer pressure?
A. Spending more time with classmates.
B. Taking up more relaxing hobbies.
C. Choosing friends with no bad habits.
D. Helping others who are in trouble.
（4）Which of the following shows the structure（结构） of the passage?（P=Paragraph）
A. B. C. D.
（5）For whom is the passage most probably written?
A. Students.
B. Parents.
C. Teachers.
D. Doctors.
【答案】（1）A
（2）A
（3）C
（4）A
（5）A
【解析】【分析】主要讲了影响学生行为的同辈压力。

8．阅读理解
I opened the door. "Where are you going, Mom?" my elder son asked me. And his little brother asked, "Can we come, too?" "I'm going for a coffee," I answered. "And no, you can't come." Then
I ran away before they could say something. But the guilt（内疚的） feelings slowly went away. Being a mom is hard work. There's always something new to do to make my kids happy. Sometimes, I need to do something just for me. It teaches my kids an important lesson: I matter, too.
I know parenting articles often tell us it's OK to take time for ourselves. But it's so much harder to walk the talk. Of course, we should put ourselves first sometimes. And not just when we are sick. I'm talking about putting ourselves first in other ways. For example, tell the baby that after thirty minutes of reading to them, you are going to read your own book or eat at your favorite restaurant. These selfish moments are good ways to teach our children that we are important too. When you ask my kids "What does mom like?" They can answer with some of my interests and favorite things: reading books, watching movies, taking care of animals and them. They often see me do the things I enjoy, so they understand me and would stay with Dad. This understanding is good for our children. "She's a mom" shouldn't be the only way your child describes you. If it is, it's time to be a little selfish, Moms.
（1）Why did the woman leave her children quickly?
A. She had little time left that day.
B. She tried not to change her mind.
C. She didn't want to explain herself.
D. She had many things to do that day.

A. It's easier said than done.
B. It's harder to make a start.
C. It's harder to keep our word.
D. It's not easy to take a walk.
（3）Why do the women's kids know her favorites?
A. They have the same interests.
B. They often do things together.
C. They often see what she's doing.
D. Their dad tells them about her interests.
（4）What's the purpose of the passage? To tell Moms______________.
A. How to be a good mother at home.
B. to enjoy staying with their kids.
C. How to become a cool mom to your kids.
D. to stop always putting their kids first.
【答案】（1）B
（2）A
（3）C
（4）D
【解析】【分析】文章大意：本文介绍了妈妈在日常生活中，在照顾孩子的同时，应该有自己的兴趣和爱好，不应该总是把孩子放在第一位置，这样做对孩子有好处。

（1）推断题。

根据 Then I ran away before they could say something. But the guilt（内疚的）feelings slowly went away.可知妈妈怕自己感到不带孩子感到内疚，会改变主意，所以很快离开，故选B。

（2）词句猜测题。

根据 I know parenting articles often tell us it's OK to take time for ourselves.可知父母为自己花费些时间是可以的，下文but但是表示转折，可猜出it's so much harder to walk the talk.这句意思应该是说起来容易做起来难，故选A。

（3）细节题。

根据 They often see me do the things I enjoy可知孩子知道她最喜欢的事，因为孩子经常看见她做她自己喜欢的事情，故选C。

（4）主旨题。
