Students get a taste of the adult world
For some teenagers,being an adult is the coolest thing in the world.Adults don’t do homework or take exams.They do what they like and earn money.How wonderful !But is it true?
Last month.Grade 7 students at Qiaoyi Middle School in Wuxi,Jiangsu,had a taste of the adult world.They had the homework called“Working with your parents for one day”.
What did they find?
Wu Jing’s mother works as a ticket collector in a park.At 6:00 a.m.,the 14一year—old gir1 went
to work with her mother.It Was dark and cold.Before the park opened,they did the cleaning , checked tickets and counted change.when the visitors came,they greeted them with a smile.After standing for the whole day.Wu was worn out.
“Every day Mom makes dinner for me and I take it for granted(認(rèn)為理所當(dāng)然) ,’said Wu,“Now I know how tired she must be ,I should help her more.”
Li Shiyi,14,spent her day in a car.Her father is a taxi driver.She picked up call and gave change back.  Li thought it’d be easy to sit in a car and tour the city.But soon she found that her father didn't even have time for lunch.
“Now I know how hard it is to earn money ,” Li said,“We should do what we can for our parents and never waste money.”
根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容填空,每空填一詞。
小題1:Some teenagers think that it is_______to be adults because the adults can do what they ______ and earn money.
小題2:The students were given the homework_______“Working with your parents for one day’’to have a _______ of the adult world.

小題4:Li Shiyi found her father’s job was not as_______as she had thought and her father was even too______ to have his lunch。

小題1:cool/wonderful/great,like/want
小題2:called/named ,taste

小題5:help/love,waste

試題分析:本文敘述了在無錫喬依中學(xué)七年級的學(xué)生布置了這樣一個(gè)家庭作業(yè)---和自己的父母一起工作一天,學(xué)生原以為父母是成年人,不用寫作業(yè),能夠做自己喜歡做的事情,可是一天下來之后他們發(fā)現(xiàn)父母的工作也很辛苦,所以最后短文提出孩子們要體諒父母的勤苦,不要亂花錢。
小題1:根據(jù)For some teenagers,being an adult is the coolest thing in the world .They do what they like and earn money.可知十幾歲的孩子認(rèn)為當(dāng)一個(gè)成年人是很酷的,不用做作業(yè),能夠做自己喜歡的事情,還能掙錢,故選cool/wonderful/great,like/want。
小題2:根據(jù)had a taste of the adult world.They had the homework called“Working with your parents for one day”.可知學(xué)生有這樣一個(gè)作業(yè)“和你的父母工作一天”。這里call="name" 叫;短語have a taste of品嘗,嘗試,故用called/named ,taste。
小題3:根據(jù)Now I know how tired she must be ,I should help her more.”At 6:00 a.m.,the 14一year—old gir1 went to work with her mother.It Was dark and cold.可知吳靜的媽媽那么早去上班,并且站了一天一定很累。go to work early很早去工作;must表示推測,表一定;故tired,early。
小題4:根據(jù)Li thought it’d be easy to sit in a car and tour the city.But soon she found that her father didn't even have time for lunch.李詩意原認(rèn)為父親的工作很容易的結(jié)果發(fā)現(xiàn)不是她想象的那么容易,甚至父親忙的連吃飯的時(shí)間都沒有。As…as…和……一樣;too…to…太……而不能……;故用easy,busy。
小題5:根據(jù)We should do what we can for our parents and never waste money.可知我們應(yīng)該為父母著想,了解家長的辛苦,不要浪費(fèi)錢。這里是短語help sb to do sth 幫助某人做某事;waste money浪費(fèi)錢,故用help/love,waste。
