32、些孩子很少发怒。故 B项正确。2答案与解析：F 空格处在该段结尾，其作用是总结该段内容并引起下段内容；通读该段内容可知，该段主要陈述孩子发怒是表现他们不开心或沮丧的方式，下段内容是说随年龄增长，孩子们的语言技能得到提升，他们也就不那么容易发怒了。F 项“久而久之，孩子们就拥有处理这种沮丧的技能了。 ”承上启下。故 F项正确。3答案与解析：D 根据空格上一句“Because young children at this age cant yet say what they want, feel, or need, a frustrating experience may cause a tant

33、rum.”可知，处在这个年龄阶段的孩子由于无法用言语表达他们的需要，所以会发怒。D项“随着语言技能的提高，发怒的行为将会减少。 ”承接上文，符合语境。故 D项正确。4答案与解析：E 根据该段第二句“This can lead to power struggles as a child thinks I can do it myself or I want it, give it to me ”可知，孩子们总是在想“我能自己完成” “我想要，给我吧” ；据此可以判断，E 项“孩子们总是想要独立，控制他们的环境。 ”与该段内容相符。故 E项正确。5答案与解析：G 根据空格后一句“So you ne

38、 asked his uncle excitedly.They are skis, replied his uncle. And those people are called skiers. Afel was in love. Here was the snow, and here were people who were flying across the snow. At that moment, he decided, he wanted to be a skier.He asked his uncle what the program was. The Winter Olympics

44、orld champion in the Winter Olympics.前文概要：Afel生活在一个见不到真正的雪的地方，但自他在一本图画书中见到雪之后，就对其充满好奇并爱上了这种神奇的东西。一天，Afel 在他叔叔家的电视上看到了冬季奥运会的滑雪项目，并深深地被吸引了，他下定决心要成为一个出色的滑雪者，参加下一届冬季奥运会并获得金牌。但人们提醒他说他们所生活的地方没有雪。思路导航：Paragraph 1的开头是Afel 并不在意，暗示接下来的内容会涉及 Afel如何在没有雪的情况下自己制作滑雪用具，克服一切困难努力成为一个滑雪者，而 Afel最初的尝试可能会遇到一些挫折。写作时可能会用到的画线词有 skis， skiers， TV 等。Paragraph 2的开头是因此，每天晚上在外面的沙漠中间，Afel 都会练习着从沙丘上滑下来，这表明下文讲的可能是 Afel以一种特别的方式练习滑雪，把黄黄的沙漠想象成白白的雪场，并以奥运金牌来激励自己等。写作时可能会用到的画线词有 the white fields of snow， Winter Olympics， medal 等。
