第三部分：阅读理解（共20小题；每小题2分，满分40分）
阅读下列短文，从每题所给出的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。
A
It is not unusual at all for teens to answer their parents with one-word answers. “Where are you going?” “Places.” “When will you be back?” “Sometime.” “Who will you be with?” “People.”
That means that the days of your children bounding in the front door with the details of their day are over. They are breaking away from you so that they’ll be able to stand on their own as a young adult.
Some parents feel sad about this loss of their children’s closeness. Of course you miss those conversations and friendly talks. Once your children move out after high school and establish themselves confidently as a young adult, they’ll come back for easy conversations and even ask for advice. But in order to determine who they are right now they need to separate from you.
Your job, however, is to keep them safe——and that requires knowing there they are and who they are with. Let them know clearly that it’s not because you want to dominate their life and control them; it’s because it’s a safety issue for family members to keep track of one another.
When they’re home and sit down to eat a meal, sit down with them. You need to open up to them about your life. Tell them of an interesting incident at the office, let them in on a bit of family gossip(闲谈), discuss a piece of news with them. They are glad that you see them as old enough to be in on a few experiences of your life. By letting a teen in on your life, they just may let you in of theirs.

“I swear, I didn’t steal anything!” I shouted over the alarm. Obviously the security guard didn’t believe me because he seized the shopping bag right out of my hand.
“Do you have a receipt ofr this?” he asked doubtfully, putting any new back-to-school outfit (全套设备) onto the dusty floor near the mall entrance.
“Of course I do,” I replied, fishing my wallet out of my coat pocket. Elsie and Monica, my two best friends, stood beside me. They were laughing their heads off!
I almost tore my wallet apart for the receipt, but it had disapeared. “Let me look again,” I said nervously. Then I looked again, and again, and again! My face was getting botter by the minute, and my heart was beating like a racehorse.
Finally, I loooked back at the guard and whispered, “It’s not here.” The guard picked up my clothes and said, “You’ll have to come with me, Miss.”
When he opened the office door, I saw a man sitting behind a big metal desk. It was the manager. Then I had an idea.

Every day , life is made and lost . Every day ,life goes on. Every day we experience some of the most important parts of life and may not even realize it : love , generosity , and perseverance. These values aren’t just important to us ; they make the world what it is.
Scientists say that gravitational（重力的）force makes the world turn , but some people say that love makes it go round. Love can be found anywhere: in families, friends , even complete strangers.Even of you can’t see it , you know it’s there.
Love may connect people all over the world, but what would the world be without generosity? Whether after a national disaster , or a school fund-raiser, one thing is certain -----it is better to give than to receive. Generosity is found everywhere and whether it’s a large or small act , it makes a difference. Most of all , being generous is not something you need any qualifications for , but no matter what you do , it can make a difference . Sometimes , though , it takes effort to be generous , which leads us to perseverance.
