第一节 阅读理解（共20小题；每小题2分，满分40分）
阅读下列短文，从每题的A、B、C和D项中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
A
One man tells of driving on a long and lonely road, the last 65 miles of it unpaved, in order to watch Indian dances in the state of Arizona. After the dances, he returned to his car only to find that it had a flat tire. He put on the spare and drove to the only service station in that town. “Do you fix flats?” he inquired of the attendant. “Yes,” came the answer.
“How much do you charge?” he asked.
With a twinkle in his eye, the man replied, “What difference does it make?”
This is what has been called a “Hobson’s choice”. A Hobson’s choice is a situation that forces a person to accept whatever is offered or go without.
According to Barbara Berliner, the phrase was inspired by sixteenth-century entrepreneur (企业家) Thomas Hobson. There was no choice by the customer — it was strictly Hobson’s choice.
But often we really have a choice, and the choice does make a difference. We may not always believe it. We may feel as if we have no choice, but almost always there is a choice in the matter. And when we realize that we do most things by choice, then we are taking control of our own lives.
Someone challenged me to try an experiment that completely changed my perspective. “For the next seven days,” he said, “eliminate the words ‘I have to’ from your vocabulary and say ‘I choose to’. Don’t say, ‘I have to work late tonight’. Instead, say, ‘I choose to work late’. When you choose to do it, you take control of your life. Instead of saying, ‘I have to stay home’, try ‘I choose to stay home’. The way you spend your time is your choice. You are responsible. You have control.”
In just seven days I was no longer saying “I have to” and I felt better about my decisions. I learned that there is very little in my life I actually have to do. You and I decide to do certain things because we believe that it will be for the best. When we eliminate “I have to” from our vocabularies, we take control.
Try it for a week and you see what happens. I think you’ll see it’s a change for the better. 26. What did the attendant mean by saying “What difference does it make”? A. The man didn’t need to pay for the work. B. It was unnecessary for the man to ask about the price. C. There was no need for the man to have the tire fixed. D. The man should keep silent.
27. The author learnt from the experiment that he . A. could become more challenging B. could spend more time relaxing himself C. should take pleasure in helping others D. actually changed his attitudes towards life
28. What does the underlined word “eliminate” mean?
A. Remember. B. Repeat. C. Remove. D. Recite. 29. What is the situation where we have a “Hobson’s choice”?
A. We have no choice but to follow. B. We should often change our choice. C. We should make preparations before a journey. D. We should think twice before taking action. 30. The purpose of writing this text is to .
A. advise us to become active in life B. explain what Hobson’s choice is C. tell an interesting story about the author D. accept others’ advice modestly
B
Grandparents might be known for spoiling grandchildren, but a new study says they might also be helping the
kids improve their social skills and behavior.
Spending time with grandma and grandpa especially appears to help children from single-parent, divorced/separated or stepfamily households, according to the report, published in the February Journal of Family Psychology.
\are a positive force for all families but play a significant role in families undergoing difficulties,\American Psychological Association news release. \and be a resource for children who are going through these family changes.\
In interviewing 11- to 16-year olds from England and Wales, Attar-Schwartz and her team found that the more conversations the youths had with a grandparent, including asking for advice or even money, the better they got along with their peers and the fewer problems they had, such as hyperactivity and disruptive behavior.
\stepfamilies benefited the most. The effect of their grandparents' involvement was stronger compared to children from two biological parent families.\
The study did not look at children who lived solely with their grandparents, though.
The findings have great implications for people in the United States, the authors said, because American grandparents are increasingly sharing living space with their grandchildren. A 2004 U.S. Census Bureau survey found that more than 5 million households include a grandparent and a grandchild under 18, up 30 percent since 1990, according to background information in the news release. 31.It is generally known that a grandmother __________ .
A. can help a child through hard times B. can help kids develop social skills C. can spoil a child D. is a positive force for all families
32. According to the passage, grandparents will be of least benefit to a child _______ . A. from two biological parent families B. from a single—parent household C. from a divorced household D. from a stepfamily household 33. A child who asks his grandmother for money will __________ . A. have difficulty in getting along with his peers B. still get along well with his peers
C. be easier to be spoiled than his peers D. not be popular with peers 34. We can infer from the last paragraph that ___________ . A. there are more families in America undergoing difficulties B. American parents are much busier than those from other countries C. American grandparents are much better at bringing up their grandchildren
