2022·雅安中学月考 记叙文 327词 ★★★★☆
My 11yearold daughter has been awarded an academic scholarship to a private school. It's
only a small discount, but the scholarship means she'll skip the waiting list—provided my husband
and I can cover $20，000 a year. Should we pay the private school fees, or choose free education
instead?
I always assumed my children would go to a private school, like I did. Not because my
family is wealthy, but because I believe that the best education is private. It took years for me to
make peace with the fact that my two children attended our local public primary school. They'll go
to a private high school, I told myself. Yet here we are. My eldest is now in her last year of
primary school, and my husband and I will struggle to afford private school. If so, I could increase
my work hours. My law degree was supposed to be my ticket to a good job and a solid income,
but that's not quite how it turned out.
During many sleepless nights, I felt troubled by the decision. Although I want the best for my
daughter, I have my own dreams too. I can't sacrifice everything for my precious girl. I explain
that I want to be a positive role model for my daughter, and an unhappy parent is a terrible strain
on a family. I point out that not even the privilege of private school will protect my children from
disappointment or struggle. And finally, it's decided. My daughter is going to the public school
behind our home. She couldn't be more pleased.
It's taken me a little longer, but now I'm content. More than my fancy private school
education, it's my family that shaped me. With high school now 25 years in the past, I can no
longer remember the mathematical problems and Shakespearean quotes I once knew so
perfectly. The lessons from my childhood home, however, have proved impossible to forget.

2020·全国卷Ⅲ 说明文 315词 ★★★★☆
With the young unable to afford to leave home and the old at risk of isolation (孤独), more
families are choosing to live together.
The doorway to peace and quiet, for Nick Bright at least, leads straight to his motherinlaw:
she lives on the ground floor, while he lives upstairs with his wife and their two daughters.
Four years ago they all moved into a threestorey Victorian house in Bristol—one of a
growing number of multigenerational families in the UK living together under the same roof.
They share a front door and a washing machine, but Rita Whitehead has her own kitchen,
bathroom, bedroom and living room on the ground floor.
“We floated the idea to my mum of sharing a house，” says Kathryn Whitehead. Rita cuts
in: “We spoke more with Nick because I think it's a big thing for Nick to live with his motherin-
law.”
And what does Nick think? “From my standpoint, it all seems to work very well. Would I
recommend it? Yes, I think I would.”
It's hard to tell exactly how many people agree with him, but research indicates that the
numbers have been rising for some time. Official reports suggest that the number of households
with three generations living together had risen from 325，000 in 2001 to 419，000 in 2013.
Other varieties of multigenerational family are more common. Some people live with their
elderly parents; many more adult children are returning to the family home, if they ever left. It is
said that about 20% of 2534yearolds live with their parents, compared with 16% in 1991. The total
number of all multigenerational households in Britain is thought to be about 1.8 million.
Stories like that are more common in parts of the world where multigenerational living is
more firmly rooted. In India, particularly outside cities, young women are expected to move in
with their husband's family when they get married.
5．Who mainly uses the ground floor in the Victorian house in Bristol?
A．Nick. B．Rita.
C．Kathryn. D．The daughters.
6．What is Nick's attitude towards sharing the house with his motherinlaw?A．Positive. B．Carefree.
C．Tolerant. D．Unwilling.
7．What is the author's statement about multigenerational family based on?
A．Family traditions. B．Financial reports.
C．Published statistics. D．Public opinions.
8．What is the text mainly about?
A．Lifestyles in different countries.
B．Conflicts between generations.
C．A housing problem in Britain.
D．A rising trend of living in the UK.
