Several years ago, people thought that having big families was common and this was seen as an advantage. That was mainly because children began working at an early age to help provide for the family. But with the changing times and with the cost of living getting higher every single year, having a big family is no longer considered to be a practical option. In fact, more couples consider that they have only one child and some do not have any desire to become parents at all.According to the Australian Institute of Family Studies, by 1986, women aged 40 to 44 years, were considerably more likely to have given birth to two children than three children (36% vs. 27%) or four or more children (19%). However, taken together, women were still more likely to have had three or more children than to have had two children (46% vs. 36%).In recent years, women were more likely to have had two children than three or more children a trend that was most marked in the most recent period (38% vs. 25% in 1996; 38% vs. 22% in 2006). These days, most families in Australia have two children. But the number of women who hadgiven birth toa single childincreased progressivelyfrom only 8% in 1981 to 13% in 2006.The U.S. Census Bureau states that there are approximately 14 million only children in America today. Thiscomprises 20% ofthe childrens populationcompared toonly 10% around fifty years ago.操作提示：通过题干后的下拉框选择题目的正确答案。1. Several years ago, people thought that having big families was 正确答案是：CA. uncommon and this was seen as an advantageB. common and this was seen as a disadvantageC. common and this was seen as an advantage2.

Which of the following may be the best title for the passage?回正确答案是：AA. Families Having Fewer Children Nowadays.B. Couples Having More Children Nowadays.C. Women Being Likely to Have More Children.解析：1. 这是一道细节题。本题询问“几年前，人们认为拥有大家庭？”，第一段第二句话告诉读者 “人们认为有个大家庭，很常见，而且大家庭也被认为是个优势”，所以选C。2. 这是一道细节判断题。第二段第一句话意为“而综合来看，妇女仍然有可能要三个或更多个孩子而不是要两个孩子（其比例为46% vs. 36%）”，此句表明有可能要多个孩子，所以选B。3. 这是一道细节判断题。本题询问“近年来，妇女有可能要多少个孩子？”，第三段第一句话告诉读者妇女更有可能要2个而不是3个或更多个孩子，所以选C。4. 这是一道推断题。按照短文内容，我们可以了解到现今澳大利亚大部分家庭拥有2个孩子，而要1个孩子妇女数量（increased progressively）逐渐增加，所以我们推断将来拥有1个孩子的家庭会显著增多，所以选B5. 这是一道主旨大意题。通读全文可知，文章讲过去有个大家庭（多生孩子），很常见，而且大家庭也被认为是个优势。但近几年来，由于生活成本逐年增长，拥有大家庭已不再是一个现实的选择，妇女愿意要3个或更多个孩子的越来越少。而如今澳大利亚大部分家庭拥有2个孩子，要1个孩子的家庭逐年递增。所以选A。单元自测2题目为随机，用查找功能（Ctrl+F）搜索题目题目：Do you mind if I record your lecture? .答案：No，not at all.题目：Linda, whats wrong with your grandmother? .答案：She hurt her leg.题目：Im sorry to hear that your grandmother is ill in hospital. 答案：Its very kind of you.题目：Is your grandmother getting well now? .答案：Yes, she is much better now.题目：Looking after a baby is not an easy job, is it? .答案：No, it isnt.二、阅读短文子问题 1：A; 子问题 2：B; 子问题 3：B; 子问题 4：A; 子问题 5：C单元自测3题目为随机，用查找功能（Ctrl+F）搜索题目题目：He asked John _ he could swim.答案：if题目：He is worth _.答案：trusting题目：John asked me _ to visit his uncles farm with him.答案：whether I would like题目：She _ the children not to make any noise.答案：told题目：She is a _ woman.答案：confident young题目：She said she _ lost a pen.答案：had题目：There is only one thing that people cant _you, and that is your wisdom.答案：take away from题目：We found him _ in the laboratory.答案：working题目：We must keep our classroom _.答案：clean题目：Youd better _ to hospital at once.答案：go二、阅读理解：选择题子问题 1：C; 子问题 2：C; 子问题 3：A; 子问题 4：B; 子问题 5：B二、阅读理解：正误判断子问题 1：F; 子问题 2：T; 子问题 3：T; 子问题 4：F; 子问题 5：F单元自测4题目为随机，用查找功能（Ctrl+F）搜索题目题目：I have trouble in _ my homework.答案：doing题目：This plant cantbe exposed_strong sunshine.答案：to题目：Brand was Janes brother! he reminded me so much of Jane!答案：No wonder题目： How about going to the cinema? _答案：Sounds like a good idea!题目：May I open the window to let in some fresh air?_答案：Go ahead!题目：Ok, Ill fix your computer right now.Oh, take your time. _答案：Im in no hurry.题目：Susan, will you please go and empty that drawer? 答案：What for？题目：Adictionarymaydefinegenetics_simply“thescienceof thestudyofheredity”.答案：as题目：He asked his neighbor to _his house.答案：keep an eye on题目：People_foxes_cleverbutslyanimals.答案：consideras二、英译汉子问题 1：B; 子问题 2：A; 子问题 3：C; 子问题 4：B; 子问题 5：B2、 阅读理解：正误判断he law defines youthful offenders (age 18 or under) as “delinquent” if they commit offenses.As for the same offenses, the court would consider an adult as a “criminal”. “Status offenders” are juveniles who commit offenses appropriate only to juveniles, such as truancy from school. Here are a few ideasto help prevent your children from being a delinquent. Keep your children in school to help prevent delinquency. Minor offenses, such as truancy, can lead to more serious offenses. Make clear to your children your expectations about their school attendance. Meet with school officials if necessary. Exercise adequate supervision. Juveniles rarely commit serious offenses while under the supervision of an adult. Seek the assistance of your local service agencies if you feel you cannot control your children. Attend parenting classes, or join a local support group if you are having trouble understanding how to exercise discipline. Educate your children about the dangers of drugs. Drug offenses and addiction can have serious consequences for your children. Let your children know you will not tolerate drug use. Stay informed about drug use trends in children. Get your children involved in after-school recreational activities, sports, community service or other positive activities. Young people with positive outlets for their energy are more likely to do well in school and avoid the problems of delinquency. Know who your childrens friends are. Show an interest in your childrens social life and peer groups. Peer pressure may have a bad effect on teenagers and young people. Do not allow your children to associate with juvenile delinquents.子问题 1：F; 子问题 2：F; 子问题 3：T; 子问题 4：T; 子问题 5：T单元自测5题目：I have no idea _ to make my speech interesting.答案：how 题目：My suggestion is that Tom _ to see a doctor at once.答案：go题目：-Im sorry for breaking the cup.-Oh, _ .

It describes the need for people to continue their education and training throughout their lives. Lifelong learning is more and more important for everyone because people are now facing different career choices in changing economies. It is believed lifelong learning is a crucial response to the challenges of the global knowledge economy. Currently, most universities have reacted to the era of lifelong learning by adding new programs and services for adults who seek to combine employment with part-time study. Special arrangements have been developed for these students but the core activity of the university, providing teaching to full-time young undergraduates, often goes on much as before. Lifelong learning is both formal and non-formal; and the boundaries between face-to-face teaching and distance education are increasingly blurred. By making learning possible anytime and anywhere, distance education is a powerful tool for supporting lifelong learning. Technology-based teaching is creating new educational systems that anyone from anywhere can access. The key challenge for universities is to evolve from a teacher-centered model of education to student-centered model. The challenge for governments is that they have to develop new funding approaches and new quality assessment procedures. 操作提示：句子正确选择下拉选项框为“T”；句子错误选择下拉选项框为“F”。 The term “lifelong learning” describes the need for people to continue their education and training in a certain period of their lives. 回答 The challenges of the global knowledge economy bring the needs for lifelong learning. 回答 Lifelong learning is non-formal. 回答 The universities should make the classroom student-centered. 回答 To develop a new quality assessment system is a challenge for the government. 回答子问题 1：F; 子问题 2：T; 子问题 3：F; 子问题 4：T; 子问题 5：T
