Even ad adults, they respect and honor their parents.1A.strange BdifferentCnew Dunlike答案：B语意表示“每个孩子又都各不相同”，所以用different。2A.noticing BrememberingCknowing Ddeciding答案：C从上下文可知，由于没有如何养育孩子的说明书，有时候家长不知道(know)该怎么办。3A.influenced BmadeCcontrolled Dchanged答案：A但养育孩子在很大程度上受到文化的影响(influence)。make表示“使得，做”，control表示“控制”，change表示“改变”，都与语境不符合。4A.services BstandardsCrules Dvalues答案：D结合3题知，自然地，美国父母教给孩子的是一些基本的美国价值观(values)，而不可能是service“服务”， standard“标准”和rule“法规”，据此选D项。5A.sit BgetCstand Drise答案：C对于美国人而言，父母养育孩子的目的在于帮助孩子自立。stand on ones own feet表示“独立，自立”。6A.adulthood BgirlhoodCboyhood Dchildhood答案：D根据上下文可知，从孩提时(childhood)开始，美国小孩就有自己的房间了。B和C都是片面的，因为小孩有男有女；A项则表示成年，不符合题意。所以选D项。7A.freedom BspaceCtime Dmoney答案：A结合上文提到的(stand)on their own two feet可知，此处表示“随着孩子慢慢长大，他们有更多的自由(freedom)做出自己的选择”。8A.Adults BTeenagersCAmericans Dmoney答案：B上文提到As chilldren grow，这儿提及的应该是青少年(teenagers)，他们能够选择自己的娱乐方式，选择跟自己分享(share)的朋友。9A.help BjoinCshare Dprovide答案：Chelp表示“帮助”，join表示“加入”，provide表示“提供”，都与语境不符合。10A.gain BpassCbee Dreach答案：D根据常识判断，当孩子们从青少年时期进入(reach)成年期的时候，他们能自由地选择职业和人生伴侣(marriage partner)了。11A.wives BpartnersChusbands Dcouples答案：B由于前文未明确性别，故A和C项都为片面用词，D项表示“夫妻”，不合语境。marriage partner表示“婚姻对象或人生伴侣”。12A.seek BinviteCtry Dchoose答案：A从语境知，有些年轻人仍然会寻求(seek)父母对他们作出的选择的建议。13A.room BhouseCnest Dplace答案：C但是一旦他们在18至21岁这个年龄段离开家(leave the nest)的话，他们就想要独立，而不再依附父母。leave the nest喻为“离开自己(父母)的家；离开安乐窝”。14A.connected BheldCstuck Dtied答案：Dtie to ones mothers apron strings意为“依附父母”。15A.serve BtreatCdescribe Drecognize答案：B美国父母把孩子当作独立的个体，而不是自己的延伸。treat sb as.是固定词组，表示“把作当”。16A.jobs BplansCdreams Dhopes答案：C据语境，realize/achieve ones dream表示“实现自己的梦想”。17A.dependence BtrustCbelief Dconfidence答案：D从上下文可知，美国人表扬并鼓励孩子们，给他们以取得成功的信心(confidence)。18A.friendship BpanionCmembership Dassociation答案：A从上下文知，孩子长大后，他们与父母的关系更像朋友。19A.known BsimilarCcontrary Ddue答案：Ccontrary to是固定词组，表示“与相反”。20A.travel BvisitCsee Dlive答案：B与通常的看法相反，大多数美国人来看望(visit)父母的时候，是不会让自己的父母付食宿费用的。.阅读理解阅读下面的文章，从题中所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳答案。(xx山东)Batteries can power anything from small sensors to large systems. While scientists are finding ways to make them smaller but even more powerful, problems can arise when these batteries are much larger and heavier than the devices themselves. University of Missouri(MU)researchers are developing a nuclear energy source that is smaller, lighter and more efficient.“To provide enough power, we need certain methods with high energy density(密度)，” said Jac Kwon, assistant professor of electrical and puter engineering at MU. “The radioisotope(放射性同位素)battery can provide power density that is much higher than chemical batteries.”Kwon and his research team have been working on building a small nuclear battery, presently the size and thickness of a penny, intended to power various micro/nanoelectromechanical systems(M/NEMS). Although nuclear batteries can cause concerns, Kwon said they are safe.“People hear the wordnuclearand think of something very dangerous.”he said. “However, nuclear power sources have already been safely powering a variety of devices, such as pacemakers, space satellites and underwater systems.”His new idea is not only in the batterys size, but also in its semiconductor(半导体). Kwons battery uses a liquid semiconductor rather than a solid semiconductor.“The key part of using a radioactive battery is that when you harvest the energy, part of the radiation energy can damage the lattice structure(晶格结构)of the solid semiconductor, ”Kwon said, “by using a liquid semiconductor, we believe we can minimize that problems.”Together with J. David Robertson, chemistry professor and associate director of the MU Research Reactor, Kwon is working to build and test the battery. In the future, they hope to increase the batterys power, shrink its size and try with various other materials. Kwon said that the battery could be thinner than the thickness of human air.1Which of the following is true of Jae Kwon?AHe teaches chemistry at MU.BHe developed a chemical battery.CHe is working on a nuclear energy source.DHe made a breakthrough in puter engineering.答案：C细节理解题。第二段表明Jae Kwon在MV作电学及计算机工程的助教，因此A项不对；B项很明显与文章内容不符；D项在文中没有信息支持；第三段第一句表明Kwon与他的研究小组正在努力研制一种核能电池，由此可知C项是正确答案。2The Kwon gave examples in Paragraph 4_.Ato show chemical batteries are widely appliedBto indicate nuclear batteries can be safely usedCto describe a nuclearpowered systemDto introduce various energy sources答案：B推理判断题。第三段最后一句中提到“虽然核电池可能给人们带来担忧，但Kwon说它们是安全的”。第四段承接上面这句话，显然是在证明核电池的安全性。3Liquid seniconductor is used to_.Aget rid of the radioactive wasteBtest the power of nuclear batteriesCdecrease the size of nuclear batteriesDreduce the damage to lattice structure答案：D细节理解题。通读倒数第二段可知，固体半导体的晶体结构会遭到核电池中放射性能量的伤害，而液体半导体却可以减少这一问题。4According to Jae Kwon, his nuclear battery_.Auses a solid semiconductorBwill soon replace the present onesCcould be extremely thinDhas passed the final test答案：C细节理解题。由文章最后一句话可知C项为正确答案。5The text is most probably a_.Ascience news report Bbook reviewCnewspaper ad Dscience fiction story答案：A推理判断题。通读全文可知本文谈论的是关于核电池的研制与功效，因此这篇文章属于科技报道。
