Everybody wants to learn. And everybody wants to teach. And the process is going on all the time. All that is necessary is to put a person who knows something —really knows it—within the curiosityrange of someone who doesn39。 t do things in that way anywhere in the world, except in school. you would know perfectly well that he was crazy。 and then, after a little, somewhat exhaustedly, started in to play The Rock of Ages on a flute, interrupting the tune to order you to stand up straight and not whisper to the little boy beside you.

They go to somebody who knows about it, and ask him. They do not go to somebody who is supposed to know about everything —except, when they are very young, to their parents: and they speedily bee dissatisfied with that variety of knowledge. They go to somebody who might reasonably expected to know about the particular thing they are interested in. When a man buys a motorcar, he does not say to himself: Where can I find somebody who can teach me how to run a motor car? He does not look in the telephone directory under T. He just gets an experienced driver to teach him. He just pays attention and asks questions and tries to do the thing himself, until he learns. 【點(diǎn)評】本題考點(diǎn)涉及細(xì)節(jié)理解,推理判斷和主旨大意三個(gè)題型的考查,是一篇教育類閱讀,要求考生在捕捉細(xì)節(jié)信息的基礎(chǔ)上,進(jìn)一步根據(jù)上下文的邏輯關(guān)系,進(jìn)行分析,推理,概括和歸納,從而選出正確答案。s enthusiasm for learning”太多作業(yè)可能會(huì)削弱學(xué)生的學(xué)習(xí)熱情,可知,作者對于給孩子太多家庭作業(yè)去做這件事持否定態(tài)度。 (4)考查推理判斷。孩子們也需要休息,因此要讓他們自由控制一天中的某些時(shí)間,可知,作者建議父母需要給孩子更多的空閑時(shí)間以使他們得到放松。根據(jù)最后一段中的“Their eyes should go beyond their children39。故選B。 (2)考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。這是由現(xiàn)象分析原因,看得出小學(xué)生和高中生的壓力很大的原因在于青少年的學(xué)習(xí)負(fù)擔(dān)過于繁重,因此文章的主要內(nèi)容是青少年的學(xué)習(xí)負(fù)擔(dān)過于繁重。s kids are ing home from school weighed down with backpacks full of books and worksheets. They are spending hours at desk at night, seldom going outside to play and getting to bed late.”可知,孩子們放學(xué)回家,書包里裝滿書和資料。 (1)考查主旨大意。s test results. need to give children more free time.(4)What is the author39。s enthusiasm for learning. To raise cheerful, contented and wellmannered children, parents need to put in a lot of time and effort. Their eyes should go beyond their children39。 s time to play freely with neighborhood kids and more importantly, their time to sleep. How can this be a good thing?Today39。 Moreover, 75 percent of the high school respondents admitted that they had problems talking to their parents and more than 55 percent of them found it hard to associate with other people, according to the study. 7.閱讀理解 故選A。 (4)考查主旨大意。根據(jù)最后一段中的“Or will the solution e from a different mindset, a simpler approach and practice, and overall a new culture?”或者,解決方案將來自一個(gè)不同的心態(tài),一個(gè)更簡單的方法和實(shí)踐,以及一個(gè)全新的文化?可推知作者似乎同意改變對健康的態(tài)度。故選B。 (2)考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。s widespread awareness of the importance of regular exercise, nearly every munity has a gym or fitness club where people can go or pay to work out, and we understand more about how the human body works.”顯然,這些最新的發(fā)展帶來了很多好處:人們普遍意識(shí)到定期鍛煉的重要性,幾乎每個(gè)社區(qū)都有一個(gè)健身房或健身俱樂部,人們可以去那里或花錢去那里鍛煉,我們對人體如何工作了解得更多,可知健身產(chǎn)業(yè)帶來了積極的影響。 (1)考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。問題產(chǎn)生很大一部分原因是人們?nèi)狈?nèi)在動(dòng)機(jī)。 s body in a practical and effective manner is no longer an embarrassing condition. The fitness industry no matter how good each new program claims to be, has failed to get the majority of people to value, practice, and enjoy physical exercise. s widespread awareness of the importance of regular exercise, nearly every munity has a gym or fitness club where people can go or pay to work out, and we understand more about how the human body works. Yet despite the many health and fitness methods, programs, and resources, the general population has never been so physically sedentary (久坐的)and outofshape. A recent World Health Organization report indicates that life expectancy (壽命)in the U. S. dropped for the first time since 1993. The health of modem people is declining, despite highly advanced medical technologies and the booming health and fitness industry. As we reflect on the evolution of fitness over the centuries, and the emergence of a well organized and growing fitness market and industry, it is well to ask ourselves: what have we lost, and what have we gained? 【點(diǎn)評】本題考點(diǎn)涉及細(xì)節(jié)理解和主旨大意兩個(gè)題型的考查,是一篇文化知識(shí)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)行概括和歸納,從而選出正確答案。本文主要內(nèi)容都是圍繞著fun的比較級和最高級變化規(guī)則展開論述,故A選項(xiàng)funner是一個(gè)詞嗎?符合文章主旨。d add suffixes on it to create superlatives.”但是樂趣這個(gè)詞呢?這個(gè)簡單的形容詞只有一個(gè)音節(jié),所以你會(huì)認(rèn)為你應(yīng)該在它上面加上后綴來創(chuàng)造最高級。根據(jù)第二段中的“But what about the word fun?
