TOKYO(Reuters)—“Who played the father in the movie‘Kramer versus Kramer’? ”
That’s one of the 50 questions Japanese men could face in a “daddy exam”,meant to raise awarene about fatherhood in a country where men tend to work long hours and leave their wives in charge of childcare and household chores.Even men who remember Dustin Hoffman struggling as a father in the movie may have a hard time answering questions ranging from potty training and baby food to politics,such as the percentage of gro domestic product used for parenting support.Tetsuya Ando,director of Fathering Japan,a Tokyo nonprofit organization that came up with the test and will offer it to eager dads from next March,said the exam was a catchy way to get fathers into parenting.“There just isn’t enough information about parenting for fathers.Through the exam,we want men to realize that they don’t know anything about childraising,”he said.For the price of 3,900 yen($34),fathers can find out whether they qualify as a “Super Dad”,or are in need of more effort as a “Challenge Dad”.
“We have received inquiries(咨询)from fathers,single men,tobedads,grandfathers...even an aunt who was concerned that her nephew is too busy with work to notice the fun of parenting,”Ando said.The image of fathers is gradually changing in Japan as younger men eschew their own dads’handsoff approach in favor of closer involvement,and a wave of new parenting magazines for male readers has been hitting newtands.But it is still hard for Japanese fathers to cut down on their work hours and spend more time with their families.Only 0.5 percent of employed men in Japan took parental leave in 2005,as opposed to 14 percent in the United States and 12 percent in Britain in 2000.41.The “daddy exam”is intended to ________.A.test tobedads’ fatherhood knowledge B.test Challenge Dads’ parenting knowledge
C.attract the whole society’s attention to parenting
D.have fathers realize their responsibility for their families 答案 D 解析 细节理解题。由第一段的“...‘daddy exam’,meant to raise awarene about fatherhood”可知,该项测试旨在提高父亲对家庭的责任。注意同义句的替代是解决此题的关键。
42.In the exam,the Japanese fathers may find that ________.A.they almost know nothing about the questions B.the questions only make sense to tobedads C.there is ample information about parenting D.it’s not a good way to get them into parenting 答案 A 解析 细节理解题。由第三段的最后一句话“...to realize that they don’t know anything about childraising”可知。
43.The underlined word“eschew”in the last paragraph can be replaced by the word “________”.
A.avoid B.adopt C.improve D.addore 答案 A 解析 词义猜测题。前文告诉我们,男人因忙于工作而忽略了做父亲的责任,然后告诉我们,现在年轻男士的这一形象正在逐渐改变,因为他们避免了自己的父亲们不插手家庭事务的态度,正因如此,针对男士读者出版的一些养育孩子的一些杂志也深受欢迎,由此可以看出,该词和avoid同义。
44.The magazines for male readers are popular most probably because many men ________.A.long to know how to do household chores B.become more concerned about parenting C.want to get high scores in the 50question test D.like to know whether they are Challenge Dads 答案 B 解析 细节理解题。由前一分句,尤其是“in favor of closer involvement”可知这种男士读物受欢迎的原因,是因为男士们更加关心“parenting”,故选B项。
45.From the whole report,it can be inferred that ________.A.Japanese fathers show no interest in parenting B.young Japanese men tend to set about parenting C.young fathers value parenting le than their fathers D.Japanese fathers value parenting more than British fathers.答案 B 解析 推理判断题。

When an earthquake hit a small town,many houses fell down.After the earthquake,all the newspapers reported many stories about some of the families who were in trouble.One Sunday,when I was reading a newspaper,a special picture touched me.It gave the clothing sizes of each family member.I thought that this would be a good chance to teach my children to help those who were le lucky than themselves.I said to my sevenyearold twins,Brad and Brett,and threeyearold Meghan,“We have so much,and these poor people now have nothing.We’ll share what we have with them.”
I filled a box with foods and clothes.While I was doing this,I encouraged the boys to choose their toys and donate some of their le favourite things.Meghan watched quietly as the boys took out their old toys and games and put them together.Then she walked away.A few minutes later she came back with Lucy,her muchloved doll.She put the doll on top of the other toys.“Oh,dear,”I said.“You don’t have to give Lucy.You love her so much.”Meghan said,“Lucy makes me happy,Mommy.Maybe she’ll make another little girl happy, too.”
I looked at Meghan for a long moment.She taught me a leon.It’s easy to give something that we don’t want any more,but hard to give what we cherish(珍爱),isn’t it?
46.The writer has ________ children.A.one B.two C.three D.four 答案 C 解析 细节理解题。根据“I said to my sevenyearold twins,Brad and Brett,and threeyearold Meghan.”判断可知。
47.The underlined word “donate” probably means “________”. A.捐赠 B.丢掉 C.展出 D.放好 答案 A 解析 细节理解题。由孩子们找玩具及“Lucy makes me happy,Mommy.Maybe she’ll make another little girl happy,too.”判断可知。
48.Lucy is the name of ________.A.a girl B.a game C.a doll D.an earthquake 答案 C 解析 细节理解题。由“...she came back with Lucy,her muchloved doll.”判断可知。
49.Which of the following is true?

A.A Family Story B.The Spirit of Giving C.The Way of Helping Others D.A Sad Experience 答案 B 解析 主旨归纳题。全文介绍作者看了报纸报道地震之后许多家庭陷入困境,她想借此机会让孩子们学会关爱他人,结果女儿给自己上了一课。
D
If you are in charge of a project,the key to succe is getting everyone to want to help you.As a director,I point,I suggest,I gently push the actors in the direction I want them to go.In the 1986 movie,“Nothing in Common”,Jackie Gleason’s character,Max Basner,gets fired from his job as a clothing salesman.The scene,shot on a boat,shows Max’s despair about being out of work.I was looking for some gestrue that would allow Max to show his feelings.Jackie had far more experience at everything than I did,and at first I was frightened.What could I poibly tell “The Great One” about acting?Out of fear I decided to direct by suggestion,and I sat down with Gleason to talk about the scene.“So Max is sad,right?” I said.Gleason nodded.“And he’s probably still carrying his pens with his name on them—the ones he used to hand out to his customers,right?”
Gleason nodded.“So what would you want to do with the pens after you were fired?” He was silent for a moment.“Why don’t I throw them overboard?”
I stood up and turned towards the crew.“Hey,everybody,Jackie has a wonderful idea.Let’s shoot it.”
After filming the scene,Gleason called me over and said with a smile.“Garry,what kind of wonderful idea am I going to have tomorrow?”
You and your team can discover the answers to problems together.When there are no prizes or gold stars for those who get the solution first,you’ll all benefit when everything turns out right.51.The author tells us that to succeed in the project you are in charge of you should ________.A.make everyone work for you B.get everyone willing to help you C.let people know you have the final say D.keep sending out orders to them 答案 B 解析 细节理解题。在第一段中就给出了本题的答案。final say意为“最后的决定权”。52.It can be inferred that ________.A.Jackie Gleason is the director of the film “Nothing in Common” B.Jackie Gleason is very angry when he is fired from his job C.Max,a character in a film,is in very low spirits when he loses his job D.Jackie Gleason is the writer of the film“Nothing in Common” 答案 C 解析 推理判断题。从第一段倒数第二、三句可得出答案。despair意为“沮丧”。53.“The Great One” in Paragraph 2 refers to ________.A.Gleason B.the director himself C.Max D.Max’s bo 答案 A 解析 词义猜测题。从第一段可知,Jackie Gleason是电影Nothing in Common中扮演Max Basner的演员。接着第二段说Gleason具有比“我”多得多的经验,像这样的“大人物”(The Great One),作者认为自己不能给予指导。
54.Why did Gleason call the director over and smile at him? Because Gleason ________.A.thought his wonderful idea was accepted by the director B.succeeded in hitting upon a wonderful idea C.was confident about his work the next day D.appreciated the director’s skill 答案 D 解析 细节理解题。由全文内容可知,Gleason是欣赏作者的技巧。55.The most suitable title for the paage is “________”.A.Directing a Film B.The Key to Succe C.A Wonderful Experience D.Working with Film 答案 B 解析 主旨归纳题。第一段的第一句和最后一段的最后一句话前后呼应,都点明了文章的主题。

第二节 写作(满分30分)假如你(李华)是一名中学生,假期中做了一次社会实践活动。在这次活动中你认识到水是生命之源,水资源越来越匮乏,传统的农业灌溉方式对水资源的浪费太大。请你就该问题给人民日报社写一篇倡议信,建议农民使用现代化的浇灌方式,节约用水,保护水资源,为子孙后代造福。写信时间:2009年5月17日。
【参考范文】 May 17,2009 Dear Editor,My name is Li Hua.I’m a middle school student.I’m writing this letter to put forward a proposal to make good use of water.As is well known to us all,water is the source of life.Without water there would be no living things.Besides,fresh water is becoming le and le.But it is a fact that farmers are still watering crops and vegetables using the traditional way.It’s a waste of water to irrigate farm lands in this way.In my opinion farmers play an important role in saving water.I think it would be better for farmers to use modern technology when they use water for farming.Only in this way can we save as much water as poible.I propose that every one of us should try our best to save water,especially the farmers,so that we can leave more fresh water for our young generations.
