They turn their gyms into campsites for Moms and Dads, some of whom have traveled thousands of miles across the country, to say goodbye.For the past five years, Tianjin University in northern China has provided free acmodation for parents in what it calls “tents of love”. Other schools let parents sleep on mats in school gymnasiums.“Going to college is a life moment and my parents didnt want to miss that,” said Zhang Jinqi, a freshman at Tianjin University majoring in applied chemistry. His parents traveled with him on the 19-hour train journey from Jiangxi Province in southern China.Images of school gyms packed with parents have been widely shared on Chinese social media prompting a debate on whether Chinas only children are too coddled.Some have voiced criticisms of Tianjin University, saying that they think both the parents and the children should be more independent.Xiong Bingqi, deputy director of think-tank 21st Century Education Research Institute,thinks the problem is overstated. “It has always been a problem in China that at the start of every school year, colleges are packed with parents who e along to drop off their children and stay with them,” he said. “For some families, its their way to celebrate the first-ever family member whos able to go to college,”Xiong added. “Theres nothing wrong with sharing the happiness.”Zhangs father said the decision to escort their son was a no-brainer. He and his wife are among the many “campers” who sleep in the 550 temporary tents set up in Tianjin Universitys gym.“My child has lots of luggage and we also want to go traveling,” said his father Zhang Yonghui. “The hotels nearby are fully booked so I have to sleep in the tents.”Their son also shrugged off the criticisms although he said he was looking forward to living on his own for the first time. “Being acpanied by my parents doesnt mean Im spoiled.”4.Zhang Jinqi thought his parents acpanied him to his university mainly because.A.they wanted to help him with his luggageB.they wanted to go to travel in TianjinC.they doubted his independenceD.they wanted to witness his important life moment5.Xiong Bingqi thinks going to college in the pany of parents.A.is a chance for freshmen to travel with their parentsB.is not such a serious problem as people thinkC.is a long-lasting problem to solveD.is not good for freshmen to build up their independence6.The underlined phrase “shrugged off” probably means.A.was in favor ofB.was ashamed ofC.thought nothing ofD.was concerned about7.Whats the main idea of the passage?A.“Tents of love” is widely criticized.B.Chinese only children are too spoiled.C.Chinese college education is faced with a big challenge.D.There are different opinions on “tents of love”.答案语篇解读文章介绍了中国大学开学季父母陪伴孩子上学,许多高校为家长提供免费的“爱的帐篷”,以及对此引发的不同的看法。4.D细节理解题。根据第三段中的“Going to college is a life moment and my parents didnt want to miss that,” said Zhang Jinqi可知,Zhang Jinqi认为父母陪他来大学报到是想见证他一生中的重要时刻,故选D项。5.B推理判断题。根据第六段中的.thinks the problem is overstated.和“For some families, its their way to celebrate the first-ever family member whos able to go to college,”Xiong added. “Theres nothing wrong with sharing the happiness.”可知Xiong Bingqi认为父母陪伴孩子上大学并不是什么大事,并不像人们想的那么严重,分享快乐没错。故选B项。6.C词义猜测题。根据最后一段中的“Being acpanied by my parents doesnt mean Im spoiled.”可知他认为由父母陪伴并不意味着被宠坏了。由此推断shrugged off意为“对不予理睬”,与thought nothing of同义,故选C项。7.D主旨大意题。文章介绍了大学开学季父母陪伴孩子上学,许多高校为家长提供免费的“爱的帐篷”,以及对此引发的不同的看法。故选D项。C(2018吉林实验中学考前模拟)When I was in the fourth grade, I worked part-time as a paper boy. Mrs. Stanley was one of my customers. Shed watch me ing down her street, and by the time Id biked up to her doorstep, there would be a cold drink waiting.

The first time she said that, soda (汽水) went up my nose.I told my father how Mrs. Stanley talked as if Mr. Stanley were still alive. Dad said she was probably lonely, and that I ought to sit and listen and nod my head and smile, and maybe shed work it out of her system. So thats what I did, and it turned out Dad was right. After a while she seemed content to leave her husband over at the cemetery (墓地).I finally quit delivering newspapers and didnt see Mrs. Stanley for several years. Then we crossed paths at a church fund-raiser(募捐活动). She was spooning mashed potatoes and looking happy. Four years before, shed offer her paper boy a drink to have someone to talk with. Now she had friends. Her husband was gone, but life went on.I am living in the city now, and my paper boy is a lady named Edna with three kids. She asks me how Im doing. When I dont say “fine”, she sticks around to hear my problems. Shes lived in the city for most of her life, but she knows about munity. munity isnt so much a place as it is a state of mind.

Happy Meals are at the low end of the scale. With the help of business, schools are also giving away cars, iPods, seats to basketball games, andin a growing number of casescold, hard cash. The appeal of such programs is obvious, but the consequences of tying grades to goods are still uncertain. Its been a mon tradition in middle-class families to reward top grades with cash as a way to teach that success in school leads to success in life. But for many disadvantaged minority children, the long-term benefits of getting an education are not so clear, according to experts.No one knows for sure how well cash and other big-ticket rewards work in education in the long run. But there are plenty of concerns that the kind of practice could have negative effects on kids. Virginia Shiller, a clinical psychologist, says that its worth experimenting with cash encouragements but that tying them to success on a test is not a worthwhile goal. “Id rather see rewards based on effort and responsibility things that will lead to success in life,” she says.Even if rewards dont lead to individual achievement on a test, they could have a meaningful effect in the school. Charles McVean, a businessman and philanthropist(慈善家), started a tutoring program which pays higher-achieving students $10 an hour to tutor struggling classmates and divides them into teams. During the course of the year, students bond(团结) and pete. The team posting the highest math scores wins the top cash prize of $100.McVean calls the bination of peer tutoring, petition, and cash encouragements a recipe for “nothing less than magic”.For its part, the Seminole County Public School System in Florida plans to continue its report card encouragement program through the rest of the school year. The local McDonalds restaurants help the poor district by paying the $1,600 cost of printing the report card. Regina Klaers, the district spokeswoman, says most parents dont seem bothered by the Happy Meals rewards. “There are many ways we try to urge students to do well, and sometimes its through the stomach, and sometimes its the probability of students winning a car,” she says. “One size doesnt fit all.”12.According to the text, it is a mon practice for schools to .A.offer free meals to students with high scoresB.tie students grades to material rewardsC.educate students to form a business senseD.cooperate with business to improve teaching13.According to the text, the long-term results of giving students cash as rewards in education are. A.negativeB.optimisticC.uncertainD.disappointing14.The tutoring program run by Charles McVean.A.hires some excellent teachers to teach struggling studentsB.has a meaningful effect in inspiring students enthusiasm on studyC.is a program bining tutoring, petition and future job offersD.rewards the students with the highest scores with the top cash prize of $10015.We can learn that in Seminole County.A.there are various ways to inspire students to study hardB.many parents are not satisfied with the Happy Meals rewardsC.the local McDonalds restaurants provide the rewards for poor studentsD.people are searching for a good-for-all method to urge students to do well答案语篇解读为了激励学生努力学习并取得好成绩,学校和家长都在采取措施,其中一项措施就是物质奖励。这样做会带来什么样的结果呢?12.B细节理解题。由第一段第一句中的schools are urging kids to work harder by offering them obvious encouragements和倒数第二句Its been a mon tradition in middle-class families to reward top grades with cash as a way to teach that success in school leads to success in life.可知,现在的学校普遍喜欢用物质奖励来鼓励学生好好学习,因此B项中提到的“将学生的成绩和物质奖励联系起来”符合文意。13.C推理判断题。由第二段第一句 No one knows for sure how well cash and other big-ticket rewards work in education in the long run.可知,就长期来看,人们对这种给予物质奖励以达到激励学生学习的方式对教育的影响还不能确切地了解。因此 uncertain 正确。negative 意为“消极的,负面的”,optimistic 意为“乐观的,积极的”,disappointing 意为“失望的”,均不符合文意。14.B细节理解题。由第三段倒数第三句During the course of the year, students bond(团结) and pete.可知,通过 Charles McVean 的这个指导项目,学生们联系在了一起并且相互之间竞争着学习,因此在激励学生学习热情上有重要的影响。故B项正确。15.A推理判断题。根据最后一段第四句“There are many ways we try to urge students to do well.” 可知,在 Seminole County,有很多种激励学生努力学习的方式,故A项正确。
