2.Our"Mommy and Me"time began two years ago.My next-door neighbor and fellow mother,Christie,and I were out in our front yards,watching seven children of age 6and under ride their bikes up and down."I wish I could take one of my children out alone,"said Christie.
Then we worked out a plan:When Christie takes one of her children out,I'll watch her other three.And when she watches two of mine,I'll take someone out.
The children were extremely quick to accept the idea of"Mommy and Me"time.Christie's daughter,McKenzie,went first.When she returned,the other children showered her with tons of questions.McKenzie was smiling broadly.Christie looked refreshed and happy."She's like a different child when there's no one else around,"Christie shared with me quietly.With her mother all to herself,McKenzie didn't have to make an effort to gain attention.
Just as Christie had noticed changes in McKenzie,I also discovered something different in each of my children during our alone times.For example,I am always surprised when my daughter,who is seldom close to me,holds my hand frequently.My stuttering (口吃) son,Tom,doesn't stutter once during our activities since he doesn't have to struggle for a chance to speak.And the other son,Sam,who's always a follower when around other children shines as a leader during our times together.
The"Mommy and Me"time allows us to be simply alone and away with each child-talking,sharing,and laughing,which has been the biggest gain.Every child deserves (應得到) to be an only child at least once in a while.

分析 文章主要講述了"媽媽和我"這個活動對"我"和鄰居家兩個家庭的影響.
解答 24.B 主旨大意題.文章主要講述了"媽媽和我"這個活動對"我"和鄰居家兩個家庭的影響,最后一段點明了主旨,即"每次花時間和一個孩子在一起的好處".A項"唯一一個和媽媽在一起的孩子的經(jīng)歷",C項"兩個家庭的幸福生活",D項"孩子的基本需求",均不能概括文章的主旨.故正確答案為B.
25.B 細節(jié)理解題.由第三段第三句"When she returned,the other children asked her tons of questions."可知,當 McKenzie 回來之后,孩子們圍著她問了許多問題,可見他們十分好奇(curious).故正確答案為B.
26.D 細節(jié)理解題.由第四段第三句"My stuttering(口吃的) son,Tom,doesn't stutter once during our activities since he doesn't have to struggle for a chance to speak."可知,Tom 的口吃問題改善了,即言語上的問題變少了,D項正確.故正確答案為D.
27.C 細節(jié)理解題.由文章最后一句"Every child deserves to be an only child at least once in a while."可知,作者認為每個孩子都需要當一次父母親唯一的孩子,哪怕一次也好,也就是說每個孩子都需要父母的全部關注.故正確答案為C.
