11、s (2) Passage C Technological change is everywhere and affects every aspect of life, mostly for the better. However, social changes that are brought about by new technology are often mistaken for a change in attitudes. An example at hand is the involvement of parents in the lives of their children w

12、ho are attending college. Surveys on this topic suggests that parents today continue to be “very” or “somewhat” overly-protective even after their children move into college dormitories. The same surveys also indicate that the rate of parental involvement is greater today than it was a generation ag

13、o. This is usually interpreted as a sign that todays parents are trying to manage their childrens lives past the point where this behavior is appropriate. However, greater parental involvement does not necessarily indicate that parents are failing to let go of their “adult” children. In the context

14、(背景) of this discussion, it seems valuable to first find out the cause of change in the case of parents involvement with their grown children. If parents of earlier generations had wanted to be in touch with their college-age children frequently, would this have been possible? Probably not. On the o

15、ther hand, does the possibility of frequent communication today mean that the urge to do so wasnt present a generation ago? Many studies show that older parentstodays grandparentswould have called their children more often if the means and cost of doing so had not been a barrier. Furthermore, studie

16、s show that finances are the most frequent subject of communication between parents and their college children. The fact that college students are financially dependent on their parents is nothing new; nor are requests for more money to be sent from home. This phenomenon is neither good nor bad; it

17、is a fact of college life, today and in the past. Thanks to the advanced technology, we live in an age of bettered communication. This has many implications well beyond the role that parents seem to play in the lives of their children who have left for college. But it is useful to bear in mind that

18、all such changes come from the technology and not some imagined desire by parents to keep their children under their wings.67. The surveys inform us of _. A. the development of technology B. the changes of adult childrens behavior C. the parents over-protection of their college children D. the means

19、 and expenses of students communication68. The writer believes that_. A. parents today are more protective than those in the past B. the disadvantages of new technology outweigh its advantages C. technology explains greater involvement with their children D. parents changed attitudes lead to college

20、 childrens delayed independence69. What is the best title for the passage? A. Technology or Attitude B. Dependence or Independence C. Family Influences or Social Changes D. College Management or Communication Advancement70. Which of the following shows the development of ideas in this passage? A. B.

21、 C. D.I=Introduction P=Point Sp=Sub-point C=Conclusion Passage D Let children learn to judge their own work. A child learning to talk does not learn by being corrected all the time: if corrected too much, he will stop talking. He notices a thousand times a day the difference between the language he

22、uses and the language those around him use. Bit by bit, he makes the necessary changes to make his language like other peoples. In the same way, children learning to do all the other things they learn to do without being taught to walk, run, climb, whistle, ride a bicycle, compare their own performa

23、nces with those of more skilled people, and slowly make the needed changes. But in school we never give a child a chance to find out his mistakes and correct them for himself. We do it all for him. We act as if we thought that he would never notice a mistake unless it was pointed out to him, or corr

24、ect it unless he was made to. Let him work out, with the help of other children if he wants it, what this word says, what the answer is to that problem, whether this is a good way of saying or doing this or not.If it is a matter of right answer, as it may be in mathematics or science, give him the a

25、nswer book. Let him correct his own papers. Why should we teachers waste time to such routine work? Our job should be to help the child when he tells us that he cant find the way to get the right answer. Let the children learn what all educated persons must someday learn, how to measure their own un

26、derstanding, how to know what they know or do not know. 41. According to the passage, the best way for children to learn things is by_.

30、 to be a mothers ultimate threat. But with the two-parent household becoming less and less common. University of Maryland researchers set out to study how important contact with dad is to childrens development. They found that even when fathers do not live at home. children whose fathers are activel

31、y involved in their lives tend to have better cognitive (认知) and language skills and fewer behavior problems.”We found that fathers who are involved with children have children with fewer problems.” according to leading investigator Dr. Maureen Black. “That added involvement from a father helps chil
