Parents feel that it is difficult to live with teenagers.Then again,teenagers have1feelings about their parents,saying that it is not easy living with them.According to a recent research,the most common2between parents and teenagers is that regarding untidiness and daily routine tasks.On the one hand,parents go mad over3rooms,clothes thrown on the floor and their children’s refusal to help with the4.On the other hand,teenagers lose their patience continually when parents blame them for5the towel in the bathroom,not cleaning up their room or refusing to do the shopping at the supermarket.
The research,conducted by St.George University,shows that different parents have different6 to these problems.However,some approaches are more7than others.For example,those parents who yell at their children for their untidiness,but8clean the room for them,have fewer chances of changing their children’s 9.On the contrary,those who let teenagers experience the10of their actions can do better.For example,when teenagers who don’t help their parents with the shopping don’t find their favorite drink in the refrigerator,they are forced to11their actions.

[解析] 1.[语篇解读]本文为夹叙夹议文,题材为社会生活类。
心理学家们针对一种社会现象—父母与孩子因日常琐事争吵,进行了一项研究,研究结果表明父母与孩子之间只有通过倾听和相互理解,存在的问题才能得以解决。
1.D 由文章内容可知,孩子和父母一样也有类似的想法。
故选similar。
其他选项均不符合句意。
2.B 由后文的“一方面,对于脏乱的房间和扔在地上的衣服,父母们都要发疯了”可知,父母和孩子之间最常见的争论是有关整洁和日常琐事的。
故设空处填argument。
3.C 由“扔在地上的衣服”可知,设空处用messy与rooms连用表示杂乱的房间。
4.B 根据设空前罗列的孩子的各种让家长不满意的行为可知,设空处需要填另外一个与之相关的让家长不满意的习惯,即“孩子们拒绝做家务”。

7.B 然而,一些方法比其他的方法更普遍,故用popular。
8.A 此处指那些父母因孩子的不整洁冲孩子们吼叫之后,又给他们打扫房间。

9.A 因为脏乱而对孩子大喊大叫然后又帮孩子打扫房间的父母是没有什么机会改变孩子的行为的。
根据后文出现的actions可知设空处与之同义,用behavior。
10.C 相反,那些让孩子体验自己行为所带来的后果(consequences)的父母做得就比较好。
11.D 他们(孩子们)被迫重新考虑(reconsider)自己的行为。
12.A 由后文出现的Communication可知,设空处表达的是:心理学家说在父母和孩子之间最重要的是交流。
故选A。
13.D 父母应该与孩子交谈,但同时也应该倾听孩子的心声。
talk to符合文意。
14.B 此处照应第一段的“...when parents blame them for...”,指父母会因不整洁而责骂孩子。

hope v.希望;assumev.假定;doubt v.怀疑。

find out not that he had died,but that,when his time was up,he would be thought of only as one who profited from5and destruction.
To make sure that he was6with love and respect,Nobel arranged in his7to give the largest part of his money to8the Nobel prizes,which would be awarded to people who made great9to the causes of peace,literature,and the sciences. So10,Nobel had to die before he realized what his life was really about.

[解析] 8.【语篇解读】本文叙述了诺贝尔决定设立诺贝尔奖金的原因。
1.C句中提到的是Alfred的兄弟的死,让人们误以为是Alfred死了;mistake. . . for. . . “误以为……是……”。
2.B报纸上“宣布”死讯用announce,即“公开宣布”的意思。
3.C由首句“become a millionaire”以及报纸上称他为“merchant of death”可知,Alfred是因为发明炸药(即找到了比以前更快的致人死亡的杀人方式)而致富的,因此rich符合题意。
4.A Alfred看到自己死去的报道,并且报道说Alfred是通过“kill more people faster”而致富的,这当然令他感到“upset(沮丧的)”。
这里应该用一个描写负面情绪的形容词,所以excited 与pleased应首先排除。
5.A他因发明炸药而从“死亡”与毁灭中受益,所以此处death与destruction对应,上下文中也反复提到kill,death等词。
6.D Alfred要确保被别人充满爱和尊敬地“记住”,所以用be remembered。
7.C由“. . . to give the largest part of his money to. . . “可知,诺贝尔在“遗嘱”中对他的大部分的钱财作出了安排。
8.A根据词组搭配与常识,应为establish the Nobel Prize(设立诺贝尔奖)。
9.D make contributions to意为“对……作出贡献”。
make sacrifices作出牺牲。
10.B该题难度较大,只有充分理解了句意才能得出答案。
句意:所以“从根本上来说”,诺贝尔只有死了才意识到他生活的意义是什么(正是因为人们误以为他死了而表达了对他否定的看法,从而让他意识到他应该做点什么才能让人们带着爱和尊敬记住他)。
【长难句】To make sure that he was remembered with love and respect,Nobel arranged in his will to give the largest part of his money to establish the Nobel prizes,which would be awarded to people who made great contributions to the causes of peace,literature,and the sciences.为确保被别人充满爱和尊敬地“记住”,Nobel在“遗嘱”中对他的大部分钱财作出了安排—设立诺贝尔奖,这些奖项会奖给那些为和平、文学和科学事业做出巨大贡献的人们。
本句开头To make sure that. . .为不定式结构作目的状语,其中that从句为宾语从句;主句后跟有which引导的非限制性定语从句,其中还包含一个由who引导的定语从句,修饰先行词people。
