Are you carrying too much on your back at school? Lots of kids(孩子) at the same age as you are. Not only are students in China   1   from this problem, but kids in the United States are   2   fed up with(饱受……之苦) heavy school bags.

 

Experts are starting to   3   that more and more young students are having back and neck problems as a result of school bags   4   too heavy for them. “It’s hard for me to get up the   5___ with my bag because it’s so heavy,” said Rich Hammond,   6   11-year-old student in the US. Rick is among the students who have   7   backpacks(背包)with two straps(带子) to carry them,   8   a number of other students choose rolling backpacks. But even with rolling backpacks,   9   up stairs and buses with them is   10   a problem for kids. Many of them have hurt their knees, backs or necks because of heavy school bags.

 

But how much is too   11  ? Experts say students should carry   12   more than 10 to 15 per cent of their own body weight. Scott Bautch, a Wisconsin   13   doctor, said kids under 4th grade should   14   with 10 per cent. But it’s also important that older kids don’t go   15   15 percent, because their bones are still growing. Bautch explained that there are other injuries caused by backpacks. “Kids are   16   their balance and falling down with these backpacks,” he saiD.

 

Parents and teachers are starting to tell the kids to only take   17   library books they will be reading that night. Some teachers are using worksheets(作业纸) or   18   workbooks for students to take home.  One of the best answers is, as some   19   themselves suggested, to have no homework   20  !

答案解析: 

 

1. 选D。根据后面的also fed up with(也饱受……之苦)选定。

 

2. 选D。not only…but also系习惯搭配。

 

3. 选C。学生负担重,是一个人人皆知的现象,无需专家指出,故排除A、B、D三个选项。

 

4. 选A。of后是一个介词短语,故选非谓语动词being。

 

5. 选B。由副词up可排除另三个选项。

 

6. 选D。此处表示泛指,故用不定冠词,又由于eleven以元音开头,所以选择an。

 

7. 选D。这里的regular等于usual,意为“正常的、通常的”。

 

8. 选B。前后意义在此形成转折。

 

9. 选A。上文已呈现过这一说法,此外,另三个选项不能与bus搭配。

16. 选C。背着背包跌倒的原因就是身体“失去”平衡。

 

17. 选A。第18空后再现了take home这一说法,此外,另三个词是名词,应排除。

I consider myself something of an expert on apologies. A quick temper(脾气) has   1   me with plenty of opportunities(机会) to make them. In one of my earliest   2  , my mother is telling me, “Don’t watch the   3   when you say ‘I’m sorry’. Hold your head up and look the person in the   4  , so he’ll know you   5   it.”

 

My mother thus made the key point of a(n)   6   apology: it must be direct. You must never 7   to be doing something else. You do not   8   a pile of letters while apologizing to a person   9   in position after blaming him or her for a mistake that turned out to be your  10  . You do not apologize to a hostess(女主人), whose guest of honor you treat   11  , by sending flowers the next day without mentioning your bad   12  .

 

One of the important things you should do for an   13   apology is readiness to   14   the responsibility(责任) for our careless mistakes. We are used to making excuses, which leaves no   15   for the other person to   16   us. Since most people are open-hearted, the no-excuse apology leaves both parties feeling   17   about themselves. That, after all, is the   18   of every apology. It   19   little whether the apologizer is wholly or only partly at fault: answering for one’s   20   encourages others to take their share of the blame.

7. A. pretend                 B. forget       C. refuse                    D. expect

 

8. A. hold on                 B. put away     C. look through     D. pick up

 

9. A. poorer                 B. weaker      C. worse                   D. lower

 

10. A. fault                  B. reason            C. result               D. duty

 

11. A. cruelly                B. freely             C. roughly       D. foolishly

 

12. A. manners              B. excuses           C. efforts               D. roles

 

13. A. active                 B. effective           C. extra        D. easy

 

14. A. raise                  B. perform      C. admit        D. bear

 

15. A. situation              B. need         C. sign         D. room

 

16. A. advise                B. forgive            C. warn                D. blame

4. 选D。道歉时看着对方的眼睛,以示真诚,这一点在中西方文化是相同的。

 

5. 选C。mean it意为“这样对方就会明白你有道歉的意思”。it在这里指道歉的行为。

 

6. 选B。冒号后的内容即为“成功的”道歉的一些基本特征。

 

7. 选A。 pretend“假装”。根据情景和常识选定。

 

8. 选C。其他三个选项不合语境。

 

9. 选D。职位一般论的是高、低。

 

10. 选A。fault“过错(责任)”。turn out意为“后来证明是”。

 

11. 选C。roughly此处表示对待客人不礼貌,服务不到位。从前面的要不要道歉的讨论可以猜出这一答案。

18. 选A。道歉的最终“目的”是化干戈为玉帛,大家和好如初,所以用purpose。 end表示“目的”时用复数较多,而且不及purpose直接。

 

19. 选B。道歉者是全部还是部分承担责任这些都不太重要:关键是为所作所为主动负责,这也能促使别人共同承担责任。 根据语境不难排除另三个选项

 

20. 选D。根据行文逻辑应该是对自己的“行动”负责。answer for在此意为“对……

 

负责”。
