35、母害怕告诉她，但是正如事实证明的那样，离婚“没什么大不了的”。【难句分析2】The home life of children whose parents have an unhappy marriage is often far from ideal, and whats worse, parents will compound the problem by taking their unhappiness out on the children.分析：该句为并列句。前一分句中“whose parents have an unhappy marriage”为whose引导的定语从句，修饰先行
36、词children，whose在从句中作定语。译文：父母婚姻不幸福的孩子的家庭生活往往很不理想，更糟的是，父母把他们的不幸福发泄在孩子身上，会使问题更加严重。5A考查细节理解。根据第一段中的“Every night after I went to bed, I would hear my parents fighting. It made me really unhappy”可知，Annie的父母每天晚上都吵架，这让她感到很不幸福，故A项正确。6B考查推理判断。根据第二段中的“According to psychologist Lynn Martingdale, hearing their p

38、divorced were not worse off than the children of those who remained together, and in some cases fared better”可知，在对这些家庭进行了5年的跟踪调查后，他们发现，最终父母离婚的孩子并不比那些父母勉强在一起的孩子生活得更差，在某些情况下，他们的生活更好。据此可知，最后一段旨在通过研究进一步说明本文的论点：在不幸的婚姻中，离婚不是最糟糕的选择，故C项正确。8B考查主旨大意。根据第一段第二句和Annie所说的话可知，对孩子们来说，父母的争吵比离婚更糟糕；结合第二段中的“there is a g
39、reat deal of evidence to suggest that staying together for the sake of the children is not what should be encouraged, and may do more harm than good”可以判断，本文的主旨是：在不幸的婚姻中，和离婚相比，父母为了孩子而在一起给孩子的伤害更大。最后一段的研究也论证了这一点。故B项最适合作为本文标题。.七选五体裁：议论文题材：家庭关系主题：家庭里的交流问题【语篇解读】本文是一篇议论文。家庭关系的不和谐主要是由于家庭成员之间缺乏交流造成的。本文介绍了几个导
40、致交流问题的因素及一些解决方法。1G根据空处所在的位置可知，空处承上启下；由上文“Every family goes through its ups and downs. Most often, the root cause of this situation is the lack of communication”可知，每个家庭都会经历起起落落；大多数情况下，这种情况的根本原因是缺乏沟通。结合下文介绍的导致家庭成员之间缺乏交流的因素可知，G项正确。2F根据空后一句“In order to survive, everyone must focus all their attention on
41、 the work, so they do not have enough time to have a good talk with others”可知，为了生存，每个人都必须把所有的注意力集中在工作上，所以他们没有足够的时间和别人好好谈谈。据此可推知，F项“随着社会的发展，所有人都面临着激烈的挑战和竞争”符合语境。3C根据空前一句“Lack of discipline is the worst problem in terms of children”可知，缺乏纪律对孩子来说是最糟糕的问题。据此可推知，空处应是介绍缺乏纪律的孩子给家庭带来的不良后果，故C项正确。4B根据空前一句“Youd
42、better hear out what the children have to say on a certain matter, or even consult them about their significant ideas”可知，该处建议听听孩子们对某件事的看法，甚至向他们请教一些想法。据此可推知，空处应是介绍该建议的效果：避免和孩子争执，故B项正确。5D根据空前一句“It would be natural to see childish behavior of the younger members of a family but it is up to the elders t
43、o control the atmosphere and keep it calm”可知，看到家庭中年轻成员幼稚的行为是很自然的，但是要靠长辈来控制局面；据此可知，遇到家庭成员中的晚辈有幼稚行为的发生，长辈们应该把事情说出来，而不是保持沉默，故D项正确。.语法填空体裁：记叙文主题语境：人与社会文化奔越“一带一路”沿途国家的接力赛【语篇解读】为领略“一带一路”倡议的发展，银行职员Herman Kambugu和他的同事参加了奔越“一带一路”沿途国家的接力赛。通过这项活动，他们深刻体会到“一带一路”倡议让参与国的人民的生活更美好。1celebration考查词形转换。介词后常接名词或动名词，根据空前
44、的介词in可知，空处应填名词celebration。该句意为：他跑了32公里以示庆祝。2to take考查固定用法。attempt to do sth.为固定用法，意为“尝试做某事”。3which考查定语从句。分析该句结构可知，空处引导非限制性定语从句，引导词在从句中作主语，先行词为空前的整个主句，故用which引导该定语从句。4has witnessed考查动词的时态和主谓一致。根据该句中的时间状语“so far”可知，该句应用现在完成时；由该句主语Kambugu可知，主语为第三人称单数，故谓语动词用单数形式。5the考查冠词。此处表示使生活变得更好，for the better“好转”为固
45、定搭配，故用定冠词the。6what考查主语从句的引导词。分析该句结构可知，空处引导主语从句，作从句中had seen的宾语，表示“的事物”，故用what引导该主语从句，表示“她所看到的”。7her考查代词。空处作及物动词impressed的宾语，故用宾格代词her。8more fluently考查副词的比较级。根据该句中的“than”可知，空处用其比较级，修饰动词spoke，故可知答案。9participating考查现在分词。分析该句结构可知，the countries和动词participate之间为逻辑上的主谓关系，故用其现在分词形式作定语。10runners考查名词的单复数。runner为可数名词，又主语the countries 为复数，故此处表示多个奔跑者，应用复数形式。
