参考答案49、BC 51—2、DA

Today’s children are the “result” of the modern society. Our parents have jobs that keep

them busy almost all day long. They only have a free day in a week. This doesn’t allow

them to keep an eye on their children.

On the other hand, the modern society gives more freedom to the children than they

could “handle”. As a child, you don’t know how to grow up by yourself until you reach

a certain age. That is why you need school and parents to be by your side all the time. If

you don’t have either of them you may make a lot of mistakes. The social system of the

modern society is very lenient especially with the children.

Most of the children today are rebels (判逆者). They are rude. They are given too much

freedom by their families. This is their parent’s mistake. They ought to know that the

freedom they give to their children is misunderstood.

For example it is a bad thing for a 17 – year – old child to go out in the evening on

weekends. Parents are also guilty of the way their children show up in the street or at school. The same guilt belongs to the teaching system as well. Pupils shouldn’t be

allowed to dress like they were on a fashion presentation at school.

Another important fact we can think of regarding the freedom of children is their free

will of spending money. Parents shouldn’t allow their children to spend money on

whatever they want.

I think children are given too much freedom not only by their parents, but also by the

society. The latter is more to be blamed!

64．The writer implies that parents’ busy lifestyle .

A．makes their children become independent

B．may lead to a tense parent – child relationship

C．is harmful to their children’s health

D．is likely to create a troubled generation

Plastic sludge(污泥)and garbage is a disaster for the world's oceans. A film crew traveled the

globe to document the rubbish. And Julie Andersen of the Plastic Oceans Foundation says what

we see is just the tip of the problem. “Half of the waste actually sinks to the bottom, and that

remains on the surface actually breaks down. ”

The filmmakers found rubbish in ocean gyres, the circulating currents that trap large

concentrations of pollution in the Atlantic, Indian, and Pacifc Oceans, home of what some have

plastic. What we found was a plastic smog that spread throughout all the water. And in some

parts of the oceans, scientists have found more plastic than plant. ”

The pieces of the plastic garbage infect the food chain, sometimes visibly, and more so at the

阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A.B.C和D项中，选出最佳选项。

Educators are seriously concerned about the high rate of dropouts among the doctor of philosophy candidates and

the consequent loss of talent to a nation in need of Ph. D. s. Some have placed the dropouts loss as high as 50

percent. The extent of the loss was, however, largely a matter of expert guessing. Last week a well-rounded study was

published. It was published. It was based on 22,000 questionnaires sent to former graduate students who were

enrolled in 24 universities and it seemed to show many past fears to be groundless.

The dropouts rate was found to be 31 per cent, and in most cases the dropouts, while not completing the Ph. D.

requirement, went on to productive work. They are not only doing well financially, but, according to the report, are
