Ⅲ.阅读理解
(2009年合肥三模，D)
Marriages improve after children grow up and move out，according to an academic study，which suggests an “empty nest” is not always a bad thing.
Popular wisdom has it that parents’ relationships may suffer once their young fly the coop，because they feel they have lost their purpose in life.However，a new study by researchers at the University of California，Berkeley，has found that many couples actually feel happier when their children leave home because they are able to enjoy spending time together.
In total,123 American mothers born in the 1930s were tracked for 18 years and asked to rate their satisfaction levels shortly after marrying，when they were bringing up babies，once their children reached their teenage years and finally at age 61，when almost all had “empty nests”．
Although not all said they were happier in general，most claimed their marriages had improved since their children had left home.Researchers believe this is not just because the spouses were spending more time together，but because they were able to enjoy each other’s company more.
One of the participants in the study，which is published in the journal Psychological Science，said：“Once the kids grow up...there’s some of that stress removed...that responsibility removed，so things are a little more relaxed.”
Psychologist Sara Gorchoff，who carried out the investigation，said：“The take­home message for couples with young children is ‘hang in there’．” Her co­author Oliver John added：“Don’t wait until your kids leave home to schedule quality time with your partner.”
However，Dr Dorothy Rowe，from the British Psychological Society，said the effects of living in an “empty nest” will depend on the parents’ relationship with their children.“If you’re just waiting for them to leave home so you can get on with your life，then of course you’ll be pleased to see them go，” she said，“But if you’ve built your life around your children you’ll be terribly lonely.For some parents，their world falls apart when their children leave.”
1．It is commonly believed that________.
A．marriages improve after children leave home
B．an “empty nest” is always a happy thing
C．parents’ relationships may suffer once their young grow up and move out
D．parents will be pleased after their children leave home
2．When did many couples feel happier according to the study?
A．At age 61，when almost all had “empty nests”．
B．Shortly after marrying.
C．Once their children reached their teenage years.
D．When they were bringing up babies.
3．Marriages improve after children fly the coop not because______.
A．many couples are able to spend time together
B．many couples are able to enjoy each other’s company
C．things are a little more relaxed
D．many couples needn’t work at all
4．The author of the passage tends to agree that________.
A．parents should build their life around their kids
B．parents should schedule quality time with each other before kids leave home
C．parents’ relationship with their kids has no effect on marriages at all
D．parents should be pleased to see their kids leave home

Ⅰ.单项填空
1．D　由上句可知乘客要十点前到达浦东机场，根据答语后句“但是我不能保证”，可知司机说“我会尽力的”(I’ll do my best)。I have no idea我不知道；No problem没问题；It’s scary真令人害怕。
2．A　catch fire着火；set fire to放火。句意为：那间房子昨晚着火了。据说是有人故意放的火。
3．C　strength力气；power力量，权力；force武力；spirit精神。句意为：那天走了25公里之后，我连移动双脚的力气几乎都没有了。
4．D　an idea occurred to sb.＝an idea struck sb.，意为“某人想起了一个好主意”。句意为：我突然想起了一个好主意，我可以用零花钱为父亲买条领带。
5．A　furniture家具，为不可数名词，用that代替，此处表特指。it指物时，是明确地指上文所提到的那个事物。句意为：你注意到了吗？这个房间的家具与你房间的家具完全不同
6．C　此处为动词­ing形式作结果状语。不定式常表示预料之外的结果，而动词­ing形式常表示预料之中的结果。句意为：大雨连续下了四天，把我们的假期都毁了。
7．B　take off去掉；take in吸收；put out扑灭；give out发出，放出。句意为：当他按时完成了任务时，他感到去掉一件大心事。
8．A　kill表示的动作发生在decided之前，即“过去的过去”，且与主语parents之间是动宾关系，因此用过去完成时的被动语态。
9．C　experience作“经验”讲时，通常用做不可数名词(没有复数形式，也不能与不定冠词连用)；当它作“经历”讲时，是个可数名词，有复数形式，也可与不定冠词连用。
10．B　根据对话可以知道回答者对解释原因的人很不满意。因此要用“借口”表达不相信或陈述内容不客观。
11．B　此句是when the great man was asked about his success的省略形式，当主、从句主语一致，而且从句中含有be动词时，可以省去从句中的主语和be动词。
12．A　考查代词。本句中it作形式宾语，代替后面的不定式。
13．D　refer to谈到，涉及，此处是过去分词短语作problem的后置定语。系动词is的主语是problem。
14．D　提问做某事的频率用how often；on average意为“平均来说”。
15．D　第一空“Is there any possibility...？”意为“有……的可能性吗？”第二空用that引导同位语从句。
Ⅱ.完形填空
1．A　think of...as...是固定短语，意为“把……视为/看做……”。
2．B　句意为：我对情人节的记忆最早是从我六岁那年开始的。依据下文的描述可知，作者对这个情人节的记忆特别深刻，所以用magic来描述那种难以忘怀的感觉。
3．D　卡片上有父亲的签名。该选项从第三段第一句中的“included a．..card signed ‘Love，Dad’”可得到提示。
4．C　礼物是一个戒指，上面镶着一片红色的玻璃来代表我的诞生石——红宝石。其他选项不符合语境。
5．B　依据下文的with pride可知，该处用little。对一个六岁的孩子而言，红玻璃和红宝石没有什么不同。
6．C　表示佩戴首饰只能用wear。
7．A　上文提及作者佩戴这个礼物时的自豪之情，所以这里选A，认为这是最好的，世界上所有的卡片都不能超过它。
8．D　as在此处引导时间状语从句，意为“随着”。
9．B　随着我年龄的增加，礼物变成装满了我最喜爱的巧克力的心形盒子。give way to是固定短语，意为“为……所代替”。
10．A　该题可采用排除法，修饰巧克力不能用“可爱的；亲爱的；宝贵的”，但可以用“最喜爱的”。
11．D　父亲的卡片是特殊的，特别的。
12．C　该处语境为“而我的感谢越来越成为一种敷衍的回应”。从上下文可知，此处是与以前相对比。
13．A　这些贺卡看起来似乎不再那么重要。
14．B　我想当然地认为情人节年年都有。正是如此，才有了后文的不珍惜及上文提及的说感谢的话也成了敷衍的回应。
15．C　我把希望和梦想放在收到那些来自“重要的其他人”的卡片和礼物上。place意为“(小心或有意)放置，安放”，用在此处能反映出作者当时对父亲的爱的漠视。
16．B　来自父亲的贺卡似乎远远不够(满足女儿的需要)。与上文的from “significant others”相照应。
17．D　父亲送我的最后一张卡片在提醒着我：父亲对子女的爱是多么特别又是多么重要。看到父亲的卡片，就想起了父亲和卡片的意义，所以这张卡片具有“提示”的功能，故选D。
18．A　由上文可知，父亲一直都在这么做，所以用tradition(传统)。
19．B　句意为：这些事情永远不会消逝，就如同我对一位男子的记忆，他永远是我的情人。这句话表达了女儿对父亲永远的怀念。die在此表“消逝”。
20．D　stop doing sth.停止做某事，符合语境。stop与上文提及的两个never正好照应。
Ⅲ.阅读理解
【语篇解读】　孩子们长大了，飞出去了，拥挤但却温馨的家庭一下子变得空荡荡的。那么我们的父母会不会因孤独而心烦，整天吵个不停呢？
1．C　考查细节理解。由第二段第一句话可知，人们普遍认为，当他们的小孩长大离家之后，父母因失去了生活的目的，关系会变得紧张，所以C项正确。
2．A　考查细节理解。由第三、四段可知，他们对123位美国母亲追踪调查了18年，让她们分别说出她们在刚结婚后、初为人母时、孩子十来岁时和她们61岁时(也就是空巢之后)的幸福度。她们普遍反映，孩子离家之后她们的婚姻关系提高了。
3．D　考查细节理解。根据第四段最后半句话可排除B项；根据第五段可排除A、C两项；故D项为本题答案。
4．B　考查细节理解。由倒数第二段最后一句话可知，不要等到孩子都离家之后才来规划和你爱人高质量的生活。
