（C）阅读理解
For many parents, raising a teenager is like fighting a long war, but years go by without
any clear winner. Like a border conflict between neighboring countries, the parent-teen war is
about boundaries: Where is the line between what I control and what you do?
Both sides want peace, but neither feels it has any power to stop the conflict. In part, this is
because neither is willing to admit any responsibility for starting it. From the parents’ point of
view, the only cause of their fight is their adolescents’ complete unreasonableness. And of course,
the teens see it in exactly the same way, except oppositely. Both feel trapped.
In this article, I’ll describe three no-win situations that commonly arise between teens and
parents and then suggest some ways out of the trap. The first no-win situation is quarrels over
unimportant things. Examples include the color of the teen’s hair, the cleanliness of the bedroom,
the preferred style of clothing, the child’s failure to eat a good breakfast before school, or his
tendency to sleep until noon on the weekends. Second, blaming. The goal of a blaming battle is to
make the other admit that his bad attitude is the reason why everything goes wrong. Third,
needing to be right. It doesn’t matter what the topic is—politics, the laws of physics, or the proper
way to break an egg—the point of these arguments is to prove that you are right and the other
person is wrong, for both wish to be considered an authority—someone who actually knows
something—and therefore to command respect. Unfortunately, as long as parents and teens
continue to assume that they know more than the other, they’ll continue to fight these battles
forever and never make any real progress.
1．Why does the author compare the parent-teen war to a border conflict?
资料收集整理【淘宝店铺：向阳百分百】A．Both are about where to draw the line.
B．Both can continue for generations.
C．Neither has any clear winner.
D．Neither can be put to an end.
2．What does the underlined part in Paragraph 2 mean?
A．The teens tend to have a full understanding of their parents.
B．The teens agree with their parents on the cause of the conflict.
C．The teens cause their parents of misleading them.
D．The teens blame their parents for starting the conflict.
3．Parents and teens want to be right because they want to ______.
A．give orders to the other
B．know more than the other
C．gain respect from the other
D．get the other to behave properly
4．What will the author most probably discuss in the paragraph that follows?
A．Solutions for the parent-teen problems.
B．Examples of the parent-teen war.
C．Causes for the parent-teen conflicts.
D．Future of the parent-teen relationship.
（D）语法填空
Most of my friends have never been to China. I have been lucky enough to make at least
thirteen trips there, some on business, others for ___1___(please). When in China, I had the
opportunity to eat in a lot of different restaurants, ___2___(range) from the large and fancy to the
small and pedestrian. ___3___ I really miss, and can’t get here in Canada is the Chinese street
food.
Years ago, while working in Beijing, my route to the office took me though a hutong and I
always passed a man making food on a cutting board. The man had a large bowl of white dough
from which he would break off a piece that he rolled into a ball a little ___4___(large) than a golf
ball. This he then flattened into a “waffle” about ten centimeters across and went on
___5___(cook) on the hot top of an oil barrel, turning the “waffle” ___6___ constantly. An egg,
sometimes two, would be spread over this together with ___7___(chop) onions and some sort of
spices. The whole thing ___8___(serve)in a paper wrapper. I would take two of these, brew a cup
of coffee and have an ___9___(absolute) delicious breakfast.
Unfortunately, I don’t think I will ever again have the privilege of travelling to China
___10___the street food treats will have to live on only in my memory.
