课时09 语法填空（一）-含提示词语法填空 .阅读理解AI have two kids， a boy and a girl. I dont worry about my girl； Im sure shell be well trained in mixed martial arts. I worry about my son. Im pretty sure hes going to be feminine (女性化的). Sorry to say that， but lets face it. No dad wants his son to go feminine.At the rate were moving in a couple of years you wont be able to tell the difference between boys and girls. Sound extreme？ Think about this. In every movie where advanced timetraveling beings come to our planet theres one constant： You cant tell the male aliens from the female aliens！But thats the future. Kids today are soft and fat. People ask why. Is it junk food？ No. Junk food has been around for fifty years. Is it video games？ No. Video games have been around for thirty years. None of the kids playing them back in the day were terribly obese. Were all scratching our heads trying to figure out what weve introduced to society to ruin our kids. But its not anything weve added that has ruined our kids. Its stuff weve gotten rid of.Take the gym rope for example. Remember that thing that stretched from the floor to the ceiling in your gym class that you could never climb？ Most of the kids couldnt make it to the top. But that wasnt the point； the point was you had to try while some middleaged guy who couldnt make it up a flight of stairs shouted at you. We should have put our son on that rope， and given him a head start. But we didnt want to shame the boy， so we took it down.Taking down the rope would be a good idea if there were no ropes in life. But theyre everywhere. You just cant see them. Theyre in every goal unrealized and expectation not met. The point everyone missed about the rope is you werent supposed to make it to the top. It was there to create a fire that burned in the oversize belly of every kid.语篇解读现在的孩子普遍变得比以前软弱和肥胖了，这究竟是为什么呢？1.What is the example of aliens used to show？A.Girls are growing like boys.B.Boys are going feminine.C.There are really timetraveling beings.D.Alien movies are popular with children.解析：考查推理判断。文章第一段谈到作者担心儿子会变得女性化，再根据第二段首句和最后一句的内容可知，这个外星人的例子就是用来证明男孩越来越女性化的观点的。此外，第三段的前两句也是提示。答案：B2.What causes kids today to be soft and fat？A.Junk food.B.Video games.C.Stuff introduced to society.D.Things removed from society.解析：考查细节理解。根据第三段的“Its stuff weve gotten rid of”可知，是我们丢弃的事物毁掉了我们的孩子，即让现在的孩子变得软弱和肥胖。“Its stuff weve gotten rid of”其实是个省略形式的强调句，补充完整是“Its stuff weve gotten rid of that has ruined our kids”。答案：D3.How does the author find teenagers today？A.They have too much dignity.B.They are overprotected.C.They are less independent.D.They are thought too highly of.解析：考查推理判断。根据第四段中的“We should have put our son on that rope，and given him a head start. But we didnt want to shame the boy， so we took it down”可推知现在的孩子都被家长“过度保护着”。答案：B4.What does the rope probably symbolize？A.Goals.B.Expectations.C.Competition. D.Assistance.解析：考查推理判断。根据第五段中的“Taking down the rope would be a good idea if there were no ropes in life. But theyre everywhere. You just cant see them. Theyre in every goal unrealized and expectation not met”可知生活中处处都有“绳子”，只是人们看不到，它们存在于每一个未实现的目标和未达成的期望中，再结合第四段提到的gym rope的作用可知，rope其实象征着生活中的竞争。答案：CBFrom a college designed specifically for high school students to one that doesnt provide students with grades， here are some of the countrys most unique institutions.Berea College， Berea， KentuckyThe first interracial， coeducational college in the South， Berea specializes in attracting students who may be otherwise unable to afford a college education.
