高一英语单项填空简单题查看答案及解析
Kids will often ignore your requests for them to shut off the TV, start their chores (杂事), or do their homework as a way to avoid following your directions. Before you know it, you’ve started to sound like a broken record as you repeatedly ask them to do their assignments, clean their room, or take out the trash. Rather than saying, “Do your chores now”, you’ll be more effective if you set a target time for when the chores have to be completed. So instead of arguing about starting chores,just say, “If chores are’t done by 4 p.m, here are the consequences.” Then it’s up to your child to complete the chores. Put the ball back in their court. Don’t argue or fight with them,just say, “That’s the way it’s going to be.” It shouldn’t be punitive (惩罚性的) as much as it should be persuasive. “If your chores aren’t done by 4 p.m, then no video game time until chores are done. And if finishing those chores runs into homework time, that’s going to be your loss.” On the other hand, when dealing with homework, keep it very simple. Have a time when homework starts, and at that time, all electronics go off and do not go back on until you see that their homework is done. If your child says they have no homework, then they should use that time to study or read. Either way, there should be a time set aside when the electronics are off.
When a kid wears his iPod or headphones when you’re trying to talk to him, make no bones about it; he is not ignoring you, he is disrespecting you. At that point, everything else should stop until he takes the earplugs out of his ears. Don’t try to communicate with him when he’s wearing headphones—even if he tells you he can hear you. Wearing them while you’re talking to him is a sign of disrespect. Parents should be very tough about this kind of thing. Remember, mutual(相互的) respect becomes more important as children mature(成熟).
1.According to the passage,it seldom happens that________.
A.kids turn a deaf ear to their parents’ requests
B.parents’ directions sound like a broken record
C.children are ready to follow their parents’ directions
D.parents are unaware of what they are repeating to their kids
2. Parents will be able to deal with their child more effectively if they ________.
A.avoid direct ways of punishment
B.make him do things at their request
C.argue and fight with their child
D.allow their child to behave in his own way
3. When the kid is doing his homework,parents________.
A.should provide him with a good learning environment
B.can do whatever they like
C.can stay aside watching TV
D.must switch off the power
4.It can be inferred from the passage that________.
A.parents should take off his headphones when trying to have a talk with their child
B.it will make no difference that a kid is wearing his earplugs while talking to his parents
C.parents shouldn’t give in to their kid when he shows no sign of respect
D.kids’ purposely talking to their parents with iPod gives them a sense of power and control
5. The main idea of the passage is________.
A.that respecting each other is more important than anything else
B.how kids behave to ignore and disrespect their parents
C.that children should make choices and decisions on their own
D.how parents can deal with their kid’s behavior without losing their control

高一英语单项填空中等难度题查看答案及解析
Science experiments are a fun way for kids to learn all about science.I will introduce a few great experiments and teach your child all about the wonders of inertia(惯性).
Coin Shoot
You'll need some coins, at least eleven, and a smooth table.Stack(堆叠) all but one of the coins on the smooth table, making sure that the “high rise” is straight. Coins with wide edges make this experiment easy to do. Flick ( 弹 ) the extra coin quickly towards the bottom of the stack so that it hits the bottom coin.The bottom coin from the stack should shoot out from under the other coins without changing the rest of the stack. With good aim and quick flicks of your finger, you should be able to shoot all of the coins out of the stack one by one. Because the inertia of the stack of coins is so great, the force from the flicked coin is not enough to make the entire stack move or fall down.
The Pencil Standing
Place a narrow piece of paper on a smooth table. Hold the paper so that most of it hangs off the table.Place a pencil on the paper so that it is standing straight.Now,slowly try to pull the paper out from under the pencil.What happens? Set up the paper and pencil again, and give the paper a fast pull. What happens to the pencil this time?
Since the still pencil wants to stay at rest, it will be against the fast movement of the paper.This means that when the paper is moved quickly out from under the pencil, the pencil remains standing straight. If the paper is moved slowly, the movement has a chance to influence the pencil, and it will fall down.
1.Which of the following is used in both of the two experiments?
A.A narrow piece of paper. B.A number of coins.
C.A smooth table. D.A new pencil.
2.What result can we get if we do the first experiment well?
A.The stack of coins fall down on the table.
B.The bottom coin is flicked out of the stack.
C.All of the coins are taken away from the table.
D.All of the coins are shot out of the stack one by one.
3.Most of the paper hangs off the table so that .
A.we can pull it quickly B.we can take hold of it
C.it can influence the pencil D.the pencil can stand straight
4.If we pull the paper slowly out from under the pencil, the pencil will .
A.move slowly with the paper B.stand straight on the table
C.be shot out from the table D.fall down on the table
