课后分层集训Unit 2Growing pains (B卷).阅读理解A(2017贵州普通高等学校招生适应性考试)“Helicopter parenting” describes a style of raising children where parents are overprotective and do too much.The term describes parents who hover_over their kids at home and on the playground like a helicopter.Today，modern technology allows these helicopter parents to hover from even far away.They can give their children directions at any moment from anywhere.Julie LythcottHaims wrote a book titled How to Raise an Adult：Break Free of the Overparenting Trap and Prepare Your Kids for Success.In her book，she gives readers a closer look at this parenting style.She also explains why parents should stop it.Julie LythcottHaims says she experienced the effects of helicopter parenting firsthand when she worked as dean of firstyear students at Stanford University.The incoming students，or freshmen，she says，were very smart and accomplished on paper.But many were unable to take care of themselves.“They were turning to parents constantly for guidance，for problemsolving，to have them make the choice about something.”LythcottHaims warns this kind of parenting has many shortterm wins but longterm costs that harm the child.She uses an area common to most childrena playground.LythcottHaims suggests letting your child get a little hurt.“If you do your childs homework，it will be perfect.That is what she calls the shortterm win.The longterm cost is that your child may not feel capable.And he does not become a determined learner，meaning he will give up easily when faced with a difficult problem to solve.” So what can parents do if they want to break the overparenting “helicopter” cycle？Reading Julies book，you can follow some ways to stop hovering over your children.In a word，when kids have all the skills to take care of themselves，they will be prepared for adulthood.【语篇解读】Julie LythcottHaims写了一本书否定了“直升机式教养”，告诫父母：做得太多会伤害孩子，阻碍孩子的成功。1The underlined words “hover over” in Paragraph 1 probably mean“_”Adeal withBfly

fruit groweror would like to become onetake advantage of Apple Day to see whats around.Its called Apple Day but in practice its more like Apple Month.The day itself is on October 21, but since it has caught on, events now spread out over most of October around Britain.Visiting an apple event is a good chance to see, and often taste，a wide variety of apples.To people who are used to the limited choice of apples such as Golden Delicious and Royal Gala in supermarkets, it can be quite an eye opener to see the range of classical apples still in existence, such as Decio which was grown by the Romans.Although it doesnt taste of anything special，its still worth a try，as is the knobbly(多疙瘩的) Cats Head which is more of a curiosity than anything else.There are also varieties developed to suit specific local conditions.One of the very best varieties for eating quality is Orleans Reinette, but youll need a warm, sheltered place with perfect soil to grow it, so its a_pipe_dream for most apple lovers who fall for it.At the events, you can meet expert growers and discuss which ones will best suit your conditions, and because these are family affairs, children are well catered for with applethemed fun and games.Apple Days are being held at all sorts of places with an interest in fruit, including stately gardens and commercial orchards(果园)If you want to have a real orchard experience, try visiting the National Fruit Collection at Brogdale，near Faversham in Kent.【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文。全文介绍了在苹果节上的各种各样的苹果。虽说是Apple Day，其实该节日持续接近一个月的时间。在这段时间里，我们可以品尝到很多稀有品种的苹果。如果想尝试各种各样的苹果，就来参加Apple Day吧。5What can people do at the apple events?AAttend experts lectures.BVisit fruitloving families.CPlant fruit trees in an orchard.DTaste many kinds of apples.D细节理解题。根据第二段中的Visiting an apple event is a good chance to see，and often taste，a wide variety of apples.可知，参加苹果节可以看到并经常尝到各种各样的苹果。6What can we learn about Decio?AIt is a new variety.BIt has a strange look.CIt is rarely seen now.DIt has a special taste.C推理判断题。根据第二段中的.it can be quite an eye opener to see the range of classical apples still in existence，such as Decio.is more of a curiosity than anything else.可知，见到它很开阔眼界并且可以与稀奇的Cats Head这一品种类比，由此判断Decio非常稀少。A项说“它是新品种”，这与which was grown by the Romans不符；B项说“它外形奇特”，这指的是Cats Head的特点，犯了张冠李戴的错误；D项说“它有特殊的味道”，这与it doesnt taste of anything special不符。7What does the underlined phrase “a pipe dream” in Paragraph 3 mean?AA practical idea.BA vain hope.CA brilliant plan.DA selfish desire.B词义理解题。根据本段中的One of the very best varieties for eating quality is Orleans Reinette，but youll need a warm，sheltered place with perfect soil to grow it.可知，尽管Orleans Reinette是很好的品种，但是对各项条件的要求很高，因此大多数喜欢它的人种植它的希望会落空。A项说“一个切合实际的想法”，这与它对生存条件要求高矛盾；C项说“一个很好的计划”，根据画线前的描述可知，这是一种希望或梦想；D项说“一个自私的愿望”，这里说的是愿望的可否实现，不是自私与否。8What is the authors purpose in writing the text?ATo show how to grow apples.BTo introduce an apple festival.CTo help people select apples.DTo promote apple research.B作者意图题。根据文章第一段中的If you are a fruit groweror would like to become onetake advantage of Apple Day to see whats around.和第二段中的Visiting an apple event.以及后文介绍节日上的各类苹果可知，作者在介绍苹果节。A项“展示如何种植苹果”，C项“帮助人们选苹果”，D项“促进苹果的研究”，均与文章内容不符。.完形填空(2017四川重点中学高三评估检测)It was just a simple sixletter word.When I
