In the morning, we went camping along a path in Green Natural Park. We were happy because it was a sunny day. We were expecting an enjoyable two-day holiday. On the way, we kept singing and making jokes.
However, in the afternoon, when we finished our picnic at one o’clock, it was dark and windy. Soon, there was a shower. Unluckily, none of us brought an umbrella. We ran about but we could find no shelter.
Twenty minutes passed and it was still raining. There were hours to go before we reached the campsite (野营地). It was even worse that our small compass (指南针) showed that we went in the wrong direction. We had lost our way!
We had to make a quick decision as it was raining heavily. Chris said we could set up a tent to shelter us from the rain, so Mary and Tom helped to set up the tent. Chris and I tried to make a fire to keep us warm. But we were unable to light the fire, as everything was wet. We finally succeeded though. We dried ourselves, chatted and waited inside the tent. At about five o’clock, it stopped raining. We decided to give up the camping trip because all of us had been very tired.
This camping trip may not be very successful but we know each other better. And the most important thing I’ve learned from this trip is the importance of team spirit.

C
When you finish some chores at home, will your parents give you a reward (奖励) It is common for parents to do that. But some people do not think it is a good idea.
One of them is Susie Walton, an education expert. She believes if kids get rewards, they will think that housework is not worth (值得) doing unless they get something in return. Kids won’t sweep the floor if they see it is dirty. But they will if their parents reward them for it. Walton also said, “A home is a living place for everyone in the family. It’s important for kids to see that we all should play our part in keeping our home clean.”
Other people don’t think so. They believe that rewards encourage kids to do more chores. Rewarding also teaches them real world lessons. They can learn that we need to work to make money.
Now, there are also mobile phone apps like ChoreMonster. With the app, kids get points after doing chores. After getting some points, they can do something they like. For example, parents will allow them to play video games for half an hour if they get 80 points.
So each side seems to have their own reasons. Whether you give children rewards depends on your own ideas. Maybe you have better ways to solve this problem.
根据材料内容选择最佳答案。
( )51．Which of the following is Susie Walton’s opinion
A．Don’t ask kids to do housework. B．Don’t give kids rewards for doing chores.
C．Don’t allow kids to play computer games. D．Don’t let children play a part in doing chores.
( )52．How many reasons does Susie Walton give in the second paragraph
A．One. B．Two. C．Three. D．Four.

A．People need to work to make money.
B．Doing chores is a good way to make money.
C．They can only be allowed to watch TV by doing chores.
D．They must share housework because they live in the same house.
( )54．Where can we find the topic in the passage
A．In the first paragraph. B．In the second paragraph.
C．In the third paragraph. D．In the last paragraph.
( )55．Which idea may the writer agree with
A．Parents should give rewards to let their kids do chores.
B．Kids should offer to help with chores at home.
C．Apps are better choices for parents than money.
D．We don’t know what’s the best way to get kids helping.
【答案】51．B 52．B 53．A 54．A 55．D
【解析】本文从正反两方面讨论了孩子帮忙做家务是否应获得奖励。
51．推理判断题。根据“She believes if kids get rewards, they will think that housework is not worth (值得) doing unless they get something in return.”可知，她认为，如果孩子们得到了奖励，他们会认为家务活不值得做，除非他们得到了回报。由此可知Susie Walton的观点是孩子做家务不要给奖励。故选B。
52．细节理解题。根据“She believes if kids get rewards, they will think that housework is not worth (值得) doing unless they get something in return.”及“A home is a living place for everyone in the family. It’s important for kids to see that we all should play our part in keeping our home clean.”可知，第二段Susie Walton给出了两个理由。故选B。
53．细节理解题。根据“Rewarding also teaches them real world lessons. They can learn that we need to work to make money.”可知，奖励也教会了他们现实世界的教训。他们可以了解到我们需要工作才能赚钱。故选A。
54．主旨大意题。根据“When you finish some chores at home, will your parents give you a reward (奖励) ”及下文可知，本文讨论的话题是家长是否要给孩子奖励来鼓励孩子做家务，因此主题句在第一段。故选A。
55．观点态度题。根据“So each side seems to have their own reasons. Whether you give children rewards depends on your own ideas. Maybe you have better ways to solve this problem.”可知，孩子做家务是否给奖励取决于自己的想法，由此推出我们不知道让孩子帮忙的最佳方式是什么。故选D。

59．Everyone should never give up (try) to make our dreams come true.

【答案】
Never be afraid of difficulties
In our life, everybody may sometimes need to face different kinds of problems. I think that everyone may face difficulties in learning. However, we shouldn’t give up easily.
Once I could hardly follow my teachers in class and I made many mistakes in my homework and tests. I really felt sad. Now whenever I meet difficulties, I’ll try hard to overcome them instead of giving up. Sometimes I look up in reference books or search the Internet, sometimes I turn to my teachers or classmates. With hard work, I have done much better in my studies.
Nothing is too difficult if we put our hearts into it. Whatever difficulty we meet, there’s always a way for us to deal with it.

In the morning, we went camping along a path in Green Natural Park. We were happy because it was a sunny day. We were expecting an enjoyable two-day holiday. On the way, we kept singing and making jokes.
However, in the afternoon, when we finished our picnic at one o’clock, it was dark and windy. Soon, there was a shower. Unluckily, none of us brought an umbrella. We ran about but we could find no shelter.
Twenty minutes passed and it was still raining. There were hours to go before we reached the campsite (野营地). It was even worse that our small compass (指南针) showed that we went in the wrong direction. We had lost our way!
We had to make a quick decision as it was raining heavily. Chris said we could set up a tent to shelter us from the rain, so Mary and Tom helped to set up the tent. Chris and I tried to make a fire to keep us warm. But we were unable to light the fire, as everything was wet. We finally succeeded though. We dried ourselves, chatted and waited inside the tent. At about five o’clock, it stopped raining. We decided to give up the camping trip because all of us had been very tired.
This camping trip may not be very successful but we know each other better. And the most important thing I’ve learned from this trip is the importance of team spirit.

When you finish some chores at home, will your parents give you a reward (奖励) It is common for parents to do that. But some people do not think it is a good idea.
One of them is Susie Walton, an education expert. She believes if kids get rewards, they will think that housework is not worth (值得) doing unless they get something in return. Kids won’t sweep the floor if they see it is dirty. But they will if their parents reward them for it. Walton also said, “A home is a living place for everyone in the family. It’s important for kids to see that we all should play our part in keeping our home clean.”
Other people don’t think so. They believe that rewards encourage kids to do more chores. Rewarding also teaches them real world lessons. They can learn that we need to work to make money.
Now, there are also mobile phone apps like ChoreMonster. With the app, kids get points after doing chores. After getting some points, they can do something they like. For example, parents will allow them to play video games for half an hour if they get 80 points.
So each side seems to have their own reasons. Whether you give children rewards depends on your own ideas. Maybe you have better ways to solve this problem.
根据材料内容选择最佳答案。
( )51．Which of the following is Susie Walton’s opinion
A．Don’t ask kids to do housework.
B．Don’t give kids rewards for doing chores.
C．Don’t allow kids to play computer games.

( )53．What do people want to teach kids by giving kids rewards for doing chores
A．People need to work to make money.
B．Doing chores is a good way to make money.
C．They can only be allowed to watch TV by doing chores.
D．They must share housework because they live in the same house.
( )54．Where can we find the topic in the passage
A．In the first paragraph. B．In the second paragraph.
C．In the third paragraph. D．In the last paragraph.
( )55．Which idea may the writer agree with
A．Parents should give rewards to let their kids do chores.
