    阅读下面的句子,根据文章内容进行判断,正确写“T”,错误写“F”。

    Stop Yelling At Your Kids

    Parenting is hard. If you’re a parent, I’m sure that I don’t need to tell you that our job is a tough one. When you're managing children, it can be difficult to remember that they are still learning. If you find yourself yelling at your kids more often than you want to, here are some ways that can help you reduce the yelling. I’ve been working on this for the past few months and I have to say,it’s been amazing for both the kids and me.

    If you are having an argument with your child, you need to make sure you both take the time to really listen. It gives both of you time to think and really listen to each other, which is important. Kids are more likely to listen to you if you listen to them!

    One of your biggest struggles is to remind yourself of appropriate expectations. You can’t expect that your youngest acts as responsibly as your oldest. You should lower what you expect -taking into consideration things like their age - it can make a big difference. You should do your best to take a moment before yelling and take in a deep breath. It makes a world of difference for you. Instead of yelling, you’d better whisper. It can also help diffuse any situation by making things quieter, not louder. Besides, the more time you spend with your kids, the better you’ll get at communicating with them. You’re both more likely to understand each other.

    If your children aren’t listening or it seems they only don’t listen to you, you don’t take it personally. You should remind yourself that your kids are still learning and they’re not going to be perfect.

    ( )21. As a parent, you may know that parenting is an easy job.

    ( )22. Listening to each other is a good way to stop argument between parents and their kids.

    ( )23. Usually younger kids behave less responsibly than elder children.

    ( )24. Parents should lower their expectation for their kids.

    ( )25. Both yelling and whispering can help make things quieter.

Right after your evening meal,engage in some sort of physical activity一a sport such as bowling,perhaps.______(48).Then go to bed at your usual time or a little earlier,and you should be able to get a good night's rest without taking a pill.
    If you can get into the habit of spending your evenings this way,I am sure you will feel less tired during the day.______(49).If so,get up and watch television or do some jobs around your house until you feel sleepy.If you fall asleep and then wake up a few hours later,get up but do not take a sleeping pill.Read a while or listen to the radio,and make yourself a few hours' sleep that night.You will feel better in the morning than you usually feel after taking a pill.______ (50).
    The most important thing is to avoid taking that nap right after dinner and avoid taking pills.

    本题考查的是对上下文之间意义关系的理解和对文章细节的把握。上一句说到“我认为你的血液没有任何问题”,那么接下来就该说明实际是什么问题,而空格的下一句说“如果在晚上睡觉前你不小憩这几个小时,在晚上该睡觉时你应该很快入眠的”。因此 A与上下文联系最紧密。
    本题考查的是对上下文之间意义关系的理解和时文章细节的把握。空格的下一句是服安眠药后“导致你一天都感到困乏”,因此这里应该是解释出现这个现象的原因,因此F最符合上下文内容。
    本题考查的是对上下文之间意义关系的理解和对文章细节的把握。上一句说到“也许应该在晚饭后做些体力活动,比如打保龄球”,而空格后内容是“然后按时或者稍微提前睡觉,你就会不需要安眠药而睡个好觉”,因此B与上下文内容最符合。
    本题考查的是对上下文之间意义关系的理解和对文章细节的把握。空格后内容是“如果这样的话,你可以起床看电视或在房子周围做些运动,一直到你有睡意”,因此这里的内容应是不服用安眠药后的不适应感。因此C最符合此内容。
    本题考查的是对上下文之间意义关系的理解。前面说到前一晚由于没有服安眠药没有睡好,因此这里应是“第二天晚上你要准备早睡一个小时”。因此D与此内容最符合。

  • 第5题:

    Being financially secure in retirement just doesn’t happen magically It takes lots of planning time and savings
    Some scary facts about retirement
    ?More than 50% of persons do not have enough finances for retirement
    ?25%do not participate in their company’s retirement plan
    ?The average person spends 20 years in retirement
    Here are some tips to help you plan correctly
    1. Talk to a financial professional. Every few years it’s a good idea to schedule a meeting with a financial planner to get a “check-up”. It’s just like a doctor’s visit and you should really talk about your present situation and future goals
    2. Save and keep on saving. Make it a habit to save as much as you can
    3. Learn your retirement needs. Retirement can be expensive. Learn from today how much you need to save for your retirement. Talk to a financial planner or find an online retirement calculator
    4. Take part in your employer’s retirement plans. If your company offers one it is usually the best tool you can use. Talk to a financial professional for all your options
    5. Learn about pension. If you have an employer or government pension plan learn all the details
    6. Keep your retirement savings off-limits. Don’t make a withdrawal until you retire. You might incur penalties and it will be a setback for realizing your goals
    Which of the following is NOT true about retirement?

    A. More than half of people don’t have enough finances for retirement
    B. A quarter of people don’t take part in their company’s retirement plan
    C. No one can be financially secure in retirement
    D. The average person will spend 20 years in retirement

    答案:C
    解析:
    是非题。从题目要求看这个题是一个细节题。A项我们可以在文段中定位出来“More than 50% of persons do not have enough finances for retirement”,排除A项。B项文段定位到“25%do not participate in their company’s retirement plan”a quarter就相当于25%,排除B项。D项定位“The average person spends 20 years in retirement”和D项几乎是同义替换,排除D项。C项文段只是说要耗费时间和金钱,但并没有说没有人在退休是有保障。故C项不符文意。因此答案选C。

  • 第17题:

    Five Ways to Win Over Everyone in the Office Is it possible to like everyone in your office?Think about how tough it is to get together 15 people,much less 50,who all get along perfectly.But unlike in friendships,you need coworkers.You work with them every day and you depend on them just as they depend on you.Here are some ways that you can get the whole office on your side 41.____If you have a bone to pick with someone in your workplace,you may try stay tight-lipped around them.But you won't be helping either one of you.A Harvard Business School study found that observers consistently rated those who were frank about themselves more highly,while those who hid lost trustworthiness.The lesson is not that you should make your personal life an open book,but rather,when given the option to offer up details about yourself or painstakingly conceal them,you should just be honest.42._____Just as important as being honest about yourself is being receptive to others.We often feel the need to tell others how we feel,whether it's a concern about a project,a stray thought,or a compliment.Those are all valid,but you need to take time to hear out your coworkers,too.In fact,rushing to get your own ideas out there can cause colleagues to feel you don't value their opinions.Do your best to engage coworkers in a genuine,back-and-forth conversation,rather than prioritizing your own thoughts.43._____It's common to have a“cubicle mate"or special confidant in a work setting.But in addition to those trusted coworkers,you should expand your horizons and find out about all the people around you.Use your lunch and coffee breaks to meet up with colleagues you don't always see.Find out about their lives and interests beyond the job.It requires minimal effort and goes a long way.This will help to gTow your internal network,in addition to being a nice break in the work day.44._____Positive feedback is important for anyone to hear.And you don't have to be someone's boss to tell them they did an exceptional job on a particular project.This will help engender good will in others.But don't overdo it or be fake about it.One study found that people responded best to comments that shifted from negative to positive,possibly because it suggested they had won somebody over.45.______This one may be a bit more difficult to pull off,but it can go a long way to achieving results.Remember in dealing with any coworker what they appreciate from an interaction.Watch out for how they verbalize with others.Some people like small talk in a meeting before digging into important matters,while other are more straightforward.Jokes that work one person won't necessarily land with another,So,adapt your style accordingly to type.Consider the person that you re dealing with in advance and what will get you to your desired outcome.44选?

    A.Give compliments,just not too many.
    B.Put on a good face,always.
    C.Tailor your interactions.
    D.Spend time with everyone.
    E.Reveal,don't hide,information.
    F.Slow down and listen.
    G.Put yourselves in others'shoes.

    答案:A
    解析:
    解析:根据段落转折句,“但是不要过度去做或者做假。应该做的内容就在下句,“一个研究发现,人们对于从负面到正面的评价反应最好,也许因为这个评价表明他们有比其他人做得好。因此这就是要称赞,但是不能太多。
