十一、阅读理解
A
Everybody is afraid of something. That’s what more than 1,700 kids told us when we asked them about fears and scary(害怕的) things. We gave kids a list of 14 scary things and asked which one frightened them most. Here are the top 5 answers from our survey: ① Scary movies and TV shows; ② Scary dreams; ③ Thunderstorms, hurricanes (飓风), and other horrible weather; ④ War and terrorism (恐怖行动); ⑤ Sounds heard at night.
But not everyone is afraid of the same thing. And what makes one person scared can be of no big deal for someone else. Plenty of kids said their biggest fear wasn’t on our list.
What is fear? Fear is a feeling that everyone has — it’s programmed into all of us — and that’s a good thing because fear is there to protect us. We’re born with a sense of fear so we can react to something that could be dangerous. The baby cries, and their mom comes over to comfort him or her, helping the baby feel safe and OK again.
Real vs. Pretend
The best way to get over a fear is to get more information about it. As kids get older, they understand more and start seeing the difference between what is real and unreal. So when William’s imagination leads him to think of witches(女巫), he can tell himself, “Wait a minute. They’re only pretend things. I don’t need to worry about them.”
The same goes for the dark. A kid’s imagination can start playing tricks when the lights go out. What’s under my bed? Is that a thief I hear? With the help of a parent, kids can get more comfortable in the dark. Using a night light or shining a flashlight under the bed to see that there’s nothing there can help kids fight that fear.
1. What is paragraph 2 mainly about?
A. The list of fears is not complete.
B. The things people fear are of no big fear.
C. Kids have more fears than people think.
D. People are afraid of different things.
2. In the writer’s opinion, ___________.
A. having a sense of fear is not a bad thing
B. babies have a weak sense of fear
C. fear is not something that we are born with
D. not all people can react to dangerous things
3. What does the underlined word “pretend” in paragraph 4 mean?
A. Ugly B. Usual C. Unreal D. Lovely
【答案】1. D 2. A 3. C
【解析】本文介绍了每个人都有害怕的东西，但是害怕的东西不同。其实，恐惧也不是一件坏事。克服恐惧的最好方法就是多了解你害怕的东西。
1概括归纳题。根据“But not everyone is afraid of the same thing.”可知，第二段主要介绍并不是每个人都害怕同样的事情。因此人们害怕的东西不同，故选D。
3.推理判断题。根据“and that’s a good thing because fear is there to protect us. We’re born with a sense of fear so we can react to something that could be dangerous.” 这是一件好事，因为恐惧会保护我们。我们生来就有恐惧感，所以我们可以对危险的事情做出反应。因此作者认为恐惧感不是一件坏事。故选A。
4.词义猜测题。根据“vs”表示相对，与real “真实的”相对立的是不真实的，因此是unreal，故选C。
B
Last week my youngest son and I visited my father at his new house in Arizona. He moved there a few years ago, and I wanted very much to see his new place and meet his friends.
In my earliest memories my father was a tall, handsome and successful man. He loved his work and family, but was uncomfortable with his children. As a child I loved him; as a schoolgirl and young adult I was afraid of him and felt bitter(愤愤不平的) about him. He seemed unhappy with me unless I got straight A's in my study and unhappy with my boyfriends if their fathers were not as “successful” as he was. Whenever I went out with him on weekends, I used to try hard to think up things to say to protect myself.
On the first day of my visit, we went out with one of my father's friends for lunch at an outdoor cafe. We walked along that afternoon, did some shopping, ate at the street table, and laughed over my son's funny talks. My father's critical(挑剔的) air and strict rules were gone. He seemed so friendly and interesting to be with us.
The next day my dad pulled out his childhood pictures and told me many stories about his own childhood. Although our times together became easier over the years, I never felt closer to him at that moment. After so many years, I'm at last seeing another side of my father. And in so doing, I'm happy with my new friend. My dad, in this new home in Arizona, is back to me from where he was. 
4.The writer used to feel bitter about her father in her youth because 　　　 
A. he was silent most of the time
B. he was too proud of himself
C. he did not love his children
D. he expected too much of her
5.When the writer went out with her father on weekends, she would feel 　　　　. 
A. nervous B. sorry C. tired D. safe
6.What does the writer think of her father after visiting him in Arizona?
A. Strict and hard-working. B. More critical.
C. Friendly and interesting. D. More successful.
7.The underlined words “my new friend” refer to 　　　　. 
A. the writer's son B. the writer's father
C. the friend of the writer's father D. the cafe owner
