2、u should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center.（分数：10.00）_Concerning money or anything else, conflicts between husband and wife usually reflect a power struggle. Conflicts between parent and child often center around the

3、 same issue. As children enter adolescence , they begin to demand greater freedom to go where, they please, do what they please, and make decisions without parental interference. Many American parents do not know how to deal with their teenagers and seek advice from books, lectures, and parent-train

4、ing, courses. Parents want to maintain a friendly relationship with their teenagers and also want to guide them so that their behavior will be whatever the parents consider proper and constructive. But in a society of rapidly changing social and moral values, parents and children often disagree abou

5、twhat is important and what is right. Arguments may concern such unimportant matters as styles of dress or hairdos. But quarrels may also concern school work, after school jobs, decisions, use of the family car, dating, and sex behavior. Some families have serious problems with teenagers who drop ou

6、t of school, run away from home, or use illegal drugs. Because so much publicity is given to the problem teenager, one gets the impression that all teenagers are troublemakers. Actually, relatively few adolescents do anything wrong, and nearly all grow up into “solid citizens“ who fulfill most of th

7、eir parents expectations. In fact, recent studies show that the “generation gap“ is narrowing. The vast majority of teenagers share most of their parents values and ideas. Many parents feel that they get along with their adolescents quite well.（分数：10.00）(1).According to the writer, conflicts between

11、ocial and moral values(5).When many American parents dont know how to deal with their children they seek advice from the following EXCEPT_.（分数：2.00）A.neighborsB.parent-training coursesC.booksD.lecturesThe annual campaign to make Singapores three million people more polite ended yesterday and was imm

12、ediately followed by another drive to get them to be punctual. Tardiness is not yet a criminal offence in the island republic, and the National Punctuality Working Committee can only use gentle persuasion. “ Being on time means being considerate, “ said committee chairman Toh Weng Cheng. Previous dr

13、ives made little headway in changing a deeply rooted habit that seems oddly out of place in this otherwise efficient city-state. Tardiness at dinner parties is usually attributed to Chinese tradition, a belief that older and more important guests were expected to make an entrance after the others. M

14、eanwhile, officials will assess the results of the 15th annual courtesy (礼貌) campaign, a HK $2.4 million drive to persuade Singaporeans to mind their manners. Earlier courtesy campaigns used posters, films, advertisements in newspapers and magazines to portray considerate behavior. The publicity thi

15、s year stressed courtesy through examples of discourtesy. Few countries use elaborate public campaigns to change behavior and raise civic consciousness. It has been a way of life in Singapore for more than 30 years. Some, like the courtesy drive, deal with basic habits and culture. October was first

16、 declared “Speak Mandarin Month“ in 1978, an effort to wipe out regional Chinese dialects in favor of the official tongue. Others focus on problems of the day. The police launched a drive in 1989 to stop abuse of the emergency phone number 999, because one call in five was of the nuisance or non-eme

17、rgency variety. Some campaigns have been so successful that they have been reversed. Family planners urged parents to “Stop at Two“ in 1978. Birth rates dropped from 3.5 percent in 1960 to 1.2 percent in 1980, and families who can afford it are now encouraged to “Have Three or More“. By the early 19

18、80s, the growth of campaigns inspired one exhausted newspaper columnist to suggest a “ take your campaigns seriously campaign“.（分数：10.00）(1).In the passage, the word “tardiness“ (Line 1, Paragraph 2) most probably means_.（分数：2.00）A.punctualityB.impolitenessC.dishonestyD.lateness(2).The courtesy driv

23、senses how it is moved and can send the information to an Android phone or iPhone via a Bluetooth wireless connection.

24、 watch your brushing on a day-to-day basis., “ says Thomas Serval, the French inventor. The toothbrush will also be able to talk to other applications on your phone, so developers could, for instance, create a game controlled by your toothbrush.

25、 teeth. “We try to make it smart but also fun, “ Several says. Serval says he was inspired by his experience as a father.

This involves inserting (插入)flexible nee

32、dles (针)into certain parts of the body. The needles used are available in a number of stores in China and everyone may buy them. To learn how to use needle takes about one month of training.
