第三节 （共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）
阅读下面的短文，回答问题或将划线部分译成英文或中文。
Now more and more Chinese teenagers find life more difficult without their parents. They don’t know how
to do housework, because their parents do almost everything for them at home. This is a big problem.
Joy is 14 years old. One day her parents went on a trip to Shanghai, so she had to stay at home alone. At
first she thought she would be happy because her parents were not in. She could do everything that she liked. But
it was seven o’clock in the evening, and she felt hungry. “Oh, it’s time to have supper. Where can I get my food?”
she said to herself. Later she found some food in the fridge, but she didn’t know how to cook. At that moment, she
missed her parents very much. At last she could only go to a restaurant to eat.
Many of teenagers are the same as Joy. 4. So I think teenagers should learn some basic life skills such as
tidying up their rooms, dressing themselves, cooking some simple dishes and so on. They shouldn’t depend too
much on their parents, either. 5. 学会独立对于他们相当重要。
56．Do most Chinese teenagers know how to do housework?
57．Why did Joy miss her parents that evening according to the passage?
58．Do you think teenagers should learn to do housework? Why or why not?
