book. either the author has aimed (定目标) too _3_, so that children cant follow what is in his ( or more often, her ) story, _4_ the story seems to be talking to the readers.the best childrens books are _5_ very difficult nor very simple, and satisfy（令人满意的） the _6_ who hears the story and the adult（成年人） who _7_ it. unfortunately（不幸的是）, there are in fact few books like this, _8_ the problem of finding the right bedtime story is not _9_ to solve. this may be why many of the books regarded as _10_ of childrens literature（文学） were in fact written for _11_ “alice in wonderland” is perhaps the most obvious（明显）of this. children, left for themselves, often _12_ the worst possible interest in literature. just leave a child in a bookshop or a _13_ and he will more willingly choose the books written in an unimaginative (并非想象的 ) way, or have a look at the most childrens comics（连环图书）, full of the stories and jokes which are the rejections of teachers and righting-thinking parents.perhaps we parents

意为“读给某人听”，to后面接动作的对象。d。根据下文可知，存在的困难在于如何把孩子们的书写好。故选 good。c。书中的内容让孩子们无法理解，说明作者的目标定得高。故选 high。4. c。与前文either 对应，这里应用or. “eitheror” 意义为“要么要么”。5. b。与下半句的nor 对应，这里应用neither。 “ neithernor” 意为“既不也不”。a。satisfy的宾语除了读故事的成年人以外，当然就是听故事的孩子。故选child。d。孩子听的故事越来越少，家长把讲故事当成读故事。故选reads。c。前后两句形成因果关系，所以应用so引导结果状语从句。 b。上文讲好书越来越少，说明去发现好书并非是容易的事。故选easy。b。名词 works 意为“作品”。a。根据后面所举的例子以及文意，现在被认为是孩子们读的作品，实际上是为成年人所写的。故选grown-ups。a。show interest in something 意为“对感兴趣”。b。孩子们选书的地点一般是书店或是图书馆。故选library。d。try to do something 意为“想法设法做某事”，符合当今社会实际情况，为正确选项。c。家长不要期望孩子门会接纳他们的观点，因为两者大不相同。故选择different。mrs. ball had a son. his name was mick. she _1_ him very much and as he was not a _2 _ child, she was always _3_ that he might be

ear名师点评深爱儿子的鲍尔夫人一直为儿子的健康忧虑，常带他去医院看病，甚至被儿子脱毛衣引起眼睛和鼻子的不适而虚惊一场。答案简析1a。根据下文鲍尔夫人常带儿子去看病可见她非常爱儿子，故选择loved。2c。鲍尔夫人担心儿子会有病，常带他医院，说明nick没有强壮的体魄，故选择strong。3a。上文讲到鲍尔夫人爱儿子，那么儿子的健康状况应让做妈妈的担心才对，而不是惊奇或快乐，故选择afraid。4d。两分句从意思上看，应为因果关系，因此应用so引导这个结果状语从句。5c。生病了当然是去看医生，再根据下文意思，应选择doctor。6b。look over为固定词组，意为“检查”。7b。上文提到一年要去医院检查四次，下文将要讲到其中一年里发生的一件事情，故选years从而形成对应。8d。have trouble with sth 意为“在某方面有麻烦”为一习惯用语。9b。医生问了一个问题，他要作出回答，因此得思考一会儿，故选择thought。10c。医生的问题用了现在完成时态，对之作出的回答也应用现在完成时，即：yes ，i have。11d。深爱儿子的妈妈第一次听说儿子鼻子、眼睛有问题应感到惊讶，故选择surprised。12c。妈妈感到惊讶是因为她从未听儿子提到过这回事，故应选never。13b。医生对自己经常检查的病人，出现新的病情应作为严肃的事情来处理，故应选seriously。14b。take a sweater off意为“脱去毛线衣”。15a。穿毛衣时衣领子挤压眼、鼻引起疼痛，故应选collar。in ancient egypt ，the pharaoh(法老) treated the poor message runner like a prince when he arrived at the palace, if he brought good news. however, if the exhausted runner had the misfortune to bring the pharaoh unhappy news, his head was cut off.shades of that spirit spread over today s conversations.once a friend and i packed up some peanut butter and sandwiches for an outing. as we walked lightheartedly out the door，picnic basket in hand, a smiling neighbor looked up at the sky and said, “oh boy, bad day for a picnic. the weatherman says it s going to rain.” i wanted to strike him on the face with the peanut butter and sandwiches. not for his stupid weather report, for his smile.several months ago i was racing to catch a bus.as i breathlessly put my handful of cash across the greyhound counter, the sales agent said with a broad smile, “oh that bus left five minutes ago.” dreams of headcutting!it s not the news that makes someone angry. it s the unsympathetic attitude with which it s delivered. everyone must give bad news from time to time, and winning professionals do it with the proper attitude. a doctor advising a patient that she needs an operation does it in a caring way. a boss informing an employee he didn t get the job takes on a sympathetic tone.big winners know, when delivering any bad news, they should share the feeling of the receiver.unfortunately, many people are not aware of this. when you are tired from a long flight, has a hotel clerk cheerfully said that your room isn t ready yet? when you had your heart set on the toast beef, has your waiter merrily told you that he just served the last piece? it makes you as traveler or diner want to land your fist right on their unsympathetic faces.had my neighbor told me of the upcoming rainstorm with sympathy, i would have appreciated his warning.had the greyhound salesclerk sympathetically informed me that my bus had already left, i probably would have said, “oh, that s all right. ill catch the next one. ”big winners, when they bear bad news, deliver bombs with the emotion the bombarded (被轰炸的) person is sure to have.语篇解读当我们告诉别人不好的消息时，我们应该以同情的表情和语气来表达。1in paragraph 1 ，the writer

last seventy years. in the 1930s, twenty-five percent of the nations population lived on farms. today less than one percent of americans do.farm incomes have changed over the years too. for example, in 1933, people living and working on farms had much less money to spend than other americans. at that time, farm families had about one-third the income of non-farmers after all necessary expenses had been paid. by the late 1970s, however, that difference had almost disappeared. in 2004,farmers had their best year ever. the average farm family earned about eighty-one thousand dollars. that is more than the average american family, which earned about sixty thousand dollars.the department of labor measures
