【文章內(nèi)容簡(jiǎn)介】 are doing much around the house at all. In a survey of 1, 000 American adults, 75 percent said they believed regular housework made kids more responsible. Yet while 82 percent reported having had regular housework growing up, only 56 percent of those with children said they required them to do housework. Sports and homework are not getoutofhouseworkfree cards. The goal, after all, is to raise adults who can balance a caring role in their families and munities with whatever lifetime achievement goals they choose. Housework teaches that balance. What should you do when getting children to do housework? Accept no excuses. Don39。t worry if you must repeat yourself again and again. If you39。re spending more time getting the child to do this job than it would take to do it yourself, then you39。re doing it right. Can an allowance help? Maybe. But if you39。re trying to teach kids to share the responsibility of a home, paying them for routine housework is not the right message.（1）What is most parents39。 problem with children doing housework?

Many more of us assign housework, or say we believe in them, but the housework just doesn39。t get done.”一些父母會(huì)說(shuō)他們的孩子太忙了，沒(méi)有時(shí)間做家務(wù)。我們中更多的人會(huì)分配家務(wù)，或說(shuō)我們相信他們，但家務(wù)就是做不完?？芍贁?shù)家長(zhǎng)覺(jué)得孩子學(xué)業(yè)太忙無(wú)暇做家務(wù)，但多數(shù)家長(zhǎng)即便認(rèn)為孩子該做家務(wù)，實(shí)際生活中也沒(méi)有很好地付諸實(shí)踐。可知對(duì)大多數(shù)父母來(lái)說(shuō)讓孩子做家務(wù)存在的問(wèn)題是他們沒(méi)有把它付諸實(shí)踐。故選B。 （2）考查推理判斷。根據(jù)第三段中的“Those early shared responsibilities extended to a sense of responsibility in other areas of their lives.”那些早期共同承擔(dān)的責(zé)任擴(kuò)展到了他們生活的其他領(lǐng)域?？芍恼略诘诙谓榻B了孩子做家務(wù)的好處，第三段用一項(xiàng)研究具體闡釋了第二段的內(nèi)容。該研究表明，孩子幼時(shí)做家務(wù)預(yù)示著成年后較早成功，因?yàn)樽黾覄?wù)過(guò)程中培養(yǎng)出的責(zé)任感會(huì)遷移到生活的其他方面。可知作者提到研究是為了證明讓孩子做家務(wù)是有益的。故選C。 （3）考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。根據(jù)第四段中的“Yet while 82 percent reported having had regular housework growing up, only 56 percent of those with children said they required them to do housework.”然而，82%的人稱自己在成長(zhǎng)過(guò)程中經(jīng)常做家務(wù)，而只有56%的有孩子的人稱自己需要孩子做家務(wù)?？芍瑓⑴c調(diào)查的1000個(gè)人中，82%的人說(shuō)自己成長(zhǎng)過(guò)程中經(jīng)常做家務(wù)，即有820人小時(shí)候做過(guò)家務(wù)。故選A。 （4）考查推理判斷。最后一段中的“What should you do when getting children to do housework?”要讓孩子做家務(wù)時(shí)你應(yīng)該做什么?，是本段的主題句，作者在本段就“如何讓孩子參與到家務(wù)事中”向家長(zhǎng)提供了建議。可知作者寫的最后一段是給父母一些關(guān)于分配孩子做家務(wù)的建議。故選D。 【點(diǎn)評(píng)】本題考點(diǎn)涉及細(xì)節(jié)理解和推理判斷兩個(gè)題型的考查，是一篇教育類閱讀，考生需要準(zhǔn)確捕捉細(xì)節(jié)信息，并根據(jù)上下文進(jìn)行邏輯推理，從而選出正確答案。5．閱讀理解 The stories we share with one another are important. They show wisdom and provide inspiration. They are important to our development. But sometimes people choose not to tell. Consider the negative effects of not sharing a story in the news: People are wondering if public health officials are holding back too much information about the recent outbreak of Ebola. There is a danger in holding back stories that ought to be told. Bobette Buster said it like this, The fact is, history has shown us that stories not told can bee like a dangerous genie (妖怪) left in a bottle. When they are finally uncorked, their power to destroy is set free. There are a number of reasons why we hide parts of our story: they often show our weaknesses or expose our disadvantages。 they require courage and strength to share。 and of course, there are some stories that should be kept secret—especially those that embarrass someone else. Most of us have two selves: the one we display on the outside and the one we actually are on the inside. And the better we get at hiding the stories that show our true selves, the more damage we may be causing to ourselves and to others. Honesty and openness is important: It proves we are trustworthy. It displays we are human. We are not perfect or better. It highlights the importance of hard work and personal development. Hard work may not allow us to overe our disadvantages pletely. But with hard work, we do not have to be restricted to our mistakes. Does this mean we admit every weakness, every disadvantage, and every secret regret to everybody we meet? No, of course not. There is a time and a place and a certain level of relationship necessary for some stories to be told in an appropriate manner.（1）What39。s the function of the example in Paragraph 2? reflects that people are concerning about the spread of Ebola. shows the bad effect caused by sharing a story. proves not sharing a story can cause trouble. concludes that one should share a story at a proper time.（2）One of the reasons why people are unwilling to share experiences is that _______. highlights the importance of hard work are used to exposing their weaknesses sometimes have no courage to share their stories stories make themselves feel uneasy（3）Which is close in meaning to the underlined word uncorked in Paragraph 3? （4）The writer aims to convince us to _______. open to people close to you by sharing some secrets stories appropriately for the good of others and ourselves the dangers that can be caused by untold stories the import
