Parents should stop blaming themselves because there’s not a lot they can do about it. I mean the teenager (十幾歲的孩子) problem. Whatever you do or however you choose to deal with it, at certain times a wonderful, reasonable and helpful child will turn into a terrible animal.

I’ve seen friends deal with it in all kinds of different ways. One strict mother insisted that her son, right from a child, should stand up whenever anyone entered the room, open doors and shake hands like a gentleman. I saw him last week when I called round.Sprawling himself (懶散地躺) on the sofa in full length, he made no attempt to turn off the loud TV he was watching as I walked in, and his greeting was no more than a quick glance at me. His mother was ashamed.“I don't know what to do with him these days,” she said.“He’s forgotten all the manners we taught him.”

He hasn't forgotten them. He' s just decided that he' s not going to use them. She confessed (坦白) that she would like to come up behind him and throw him down from the sofa onto the floor.

Another good friend of mine let her two daughters climb all over the furniture, reach across the table, stare at me and say, “I don’t like your dress; it’s ugly.” One of the daughters has recently been driven out of school. The other has left home.

“Where did we go wrong?” her parents are now very sad.Probably nowhere much. At least, no more than the rest of that unfortunate race, parents.

71.This text is most probably written by ______.

A.a(chǎn) specialist in teenager studies             B.a(chǎn) headmaster of a middle school

C.a(chǎn) parent with teenage children              D.a(chǎn) doctor for mental health problems

72.The underlined word “it” in the second paragraph refers to ______.

A.the change from good to bad that ' s seen in a child

B.die way that parents often blame themselves

C.the opinion that a child has of his parents

D.the advice that parents want their children to follow

73.The boy on the sofa would most probably be described as ______.

A.lazy                   B.quiet                  C.unusual              D.rude

74.From the second example we can infer that the parents of the two daughters ______.

A.pay no attention to them                      B.a(chǎn)re too busy to look after them

C.have come to hate them                     D.feel helpless to do much about them

75.What is the author' a opinion about the sudden change in teenage children?

A.Parents have no choice but to try to accept it.

B.Parents should pay still sore attention to the change.

C.Parents should work more closely with school teachers.

D.Parents are at fault for the change in their children.

Rising above the names

   I was shopping in the supermarket when I heard a young voice.

  “Mom,come here!There's this lady here my size!”

   The mother rushed to her son;then she turned to me to apologize.

   I smiled and told her,“It's okay.”Then I talked to the boy,“Hi,I'm Darryl Kramer.How are you?”

   He studied me from head to toe,and asked,“Are you a little mommy?”

  “Yes,I have a son,”I answered.

  “Why are you so little?”he asked.

  “It's the way I was born,”I said.“Some people are little.Some are tall.I'm just not going to grow any bigger.”After I answered his other questions,I shook the boy's hand and left.

   My life as a little person is filled with stories like that.I enjoy talking to children and explaining why I look different from their parents.

   It takes only one glance to see my uniqueness.I stand three feet nine inches tall.I was born an achondroplasia dwarf(侏儒).Despite this,I did all the things other kids did when I was growing up.

   I didn't realize how short I was until I started school.Some kids picked on me,calling me names.Then I knew.I began to hate the first day of school each year.New students would always stare at me as I struggled to climb the school bus stairs.

   But I learned to smile and accept the fact that I was going to be noticed my whole life.I decided to make my uniqueness an advantage rather than a disadvantage.What I lacked in height,I made up for in personality.

   I'm 47 now,and the stares have not diminished as I've grown older.People are amazed when they see me driving.I try to keep a good attitude.When people are rude,I remind myself,“Look what else I have-a great family,nice friends.”

   It's the children's questions that make my life special.I enjoy answering their questions.My hope is that I will encourage them to accept their peers(a person of the same age,class,position,etc.),whatever size and shape they come in,and treat them with respect.

科目:高中英語(yǔ) 來(lái)源:2011年山東省高二上9月質(zhì)量檢測(cè)(英語(yǔ)) 題型:閱讀理解

Catherine Destivelle is a rock star. She loves rock, but she can’t sing or play the guitar! She is a rock climber and a big star in France and Italy. She is the most famous woman climber in the world because she often climbs without ropes. She climbs in many countries but most often in the French Alps near Chamonix, where she lives. She started climbing near her home in Paris when she was five. Then, at fourteen, she joined the French Alpine Club to learn more, but immediately she climbed better and more quickly than the older members of the club. She won her first competition in Italy in 1995.

Three years ago she found a new route up the Dru Mountain near Chamonix. The climb took eleven days and for four days the snow was so heavy that she could not move. Last year other climbers tried to follow the new Destivelle Route, but they failed. They are going to try again this year.

People always ask her about her climbing. She says, “I climb because I’m in love with mountains. I like touching the rock and reading the face of the rock. I like it a lot. I felt at home on the side of a mountain. I prepare well before I go, so I’m never worried.”

Catherine chooses new mountains from books—like buying from a shopping catalogue(目錄)! “I see a nice mountain and I go to climb it!” Her next mountain is in Pakistan. She is going there next month. “It’s much bigger than the Dru, so it’s going to take longer to climb. An American climber, Jeff Lowe, is coming with me to help.”

A. she won a competition in 1995        B. she loves rocks

C. she’s a famous woman climber         D. she found a new route up to the Dru Mountain

2.She had great trouble finding a new route up the Dru Mountain because _______.

A. she lost her way                             B. the climb took 11 days

C. she needed help from an American climber    D. there was heavy snow

3.On the side of a mountain she feels _______.

A. independent    B. easy and happy     C. energetic and challenged   D. nervous

4.We can infer from the passage people often ask her “________”.

A. Why do you like climbing?                 B. Are you in love with an American climber?

C. Do you enjoy reading books on mountains?    D. What do you do before you go climbing?
