In some families, it is the grandparents who ____for the spoiled child.

A. are blamed B. is blamed

C. are to blame D. has been blamed

C

【解析】

試題分析：考查主謂一致和動詞用法。主句句型是強調(diào)句型，故在確定主語時，可以先將it is+who去掉。剩下 the grandparents ____for the the spoiled child。主語為grandparents，故謂語動詞用復(fù)數(shù)，故排除B、D。再根據(jù)固定搭配：sb be to blame，表示某人應(yīng)受到責備。故選C。

Babies born in summer are more likely to become short-sighted in late life, a study has shown.

As many as a quarter of all cases of short-sightedness are caused by too great an exposure to sunlight in the first weeks of life, say eye experts.

They are advising all parents to put sunglasses on their babies during the first weeks.

Scientists had already established that over-exposure to sunlight caused shortsightedness in animals.

Researchers who compared the months in which babies were born with whether they needed glasses later on say the principle also applies to humans.

A study of almost 300,000 young adults-the largest of its kind-showed that those born in June and July had a 25 per cent greater chance of becoming severely short-sighted than those born in December or January.

Research leader Professor Michael Belkin, of Tel Aviv University, said it was because prolonged illumination(光照) causes the eyeball to lengthen-causing short-sightedness.

Hence the more light a newborn is exposed to, the more the eyeball lengthens and the worse the short-sightedness will be.

The mechanism which lengthens the eyeball is associated with levels of melatonin(褪黑激素), a pigment (色素) which protects the skin against harmful rays of the sun.

In young babies not enough melatonin is released as protection, meaning they are more vulnerable to sunburn and changes to eyeball shape.

Sight expert Professor Daniel O’Leary, of Anglia Ruskin University in Cambridge, said “At the moment we don’t know the precise cause of why light exposure affects sight, but the evidence seems to prove that it is one of the reasons for people becoming shortsighted.”

1.Babies born in summer are more likely to be shortsighted ____________.

A. because the summer sun is too strong for babies

B. because babies born in summer have lengthened eyeballs

C. if they are exposed too much sunlight in the first weeks after they are born

D. if parents don’t know a proper way to protect their babies’ eyes

2.Melatonin is a kind of material to ___________.

A. prevent the eyes from becoming near-sighted

B. protect the skin from harmful sun rays

C. make our body strong

D. protect babies’ eyes from summer sun

3.From what Professor Daniel O’Leary says we can conclude that ___________.

A. there is no evidence that shortsightedness is related to exposure to sunlight

B. whether light exposure affects sight still needs to be further proved

C. he believes that light exposure can cause shortsightedness

D. he tries to give the cause of why light exposure affects sight

4.The underlined word “vulnerable” in the passage probably means __________.

A. easy to be harmed B. resistant

C. protective D. changeable

Dear mum and dad,

I still cannot believe that I am taking up this prize I won last year. I have to

remind yourself constantly that I am real in AD 3008. Worrying about the journey,

I was unsettled for the first a few days. As a result, I suffer from “time lag”. This

is similar with the “jet lag” you get from flying, but it seems that you keep getting

flashbacks from your previous time period. So I was very nervous and uncertain

at first. However, Wang Ping, my friend and guide, were very understanding

but gave me some green tablet which helped a lot. Well-known for their expertise,

his parents company transported me safely into the future in a time capsule.

…

Yours,

Li Qiang

The uninvolved dad, turning up his nose at diapering(換尿布) and too busy to bathe, dress and play with his kids, is mostly a myth(神話) , a big government survey suggests. Most American fathers say they are heavily involved in hands-on parenting, the researchers found.

The results are encouraging and important " because others have found the more involved dads are, the better the outcomes for their children. " said researcher Jo Jones of the National Center for Health Statistics, part of the Centers for Disease Control Prevention. She co-authored the report released Friday.

"Times have changed," said Robert Loftus, 34, of Yonkers, NY. He quit a six-figure sales job a year ago to care for his two young children while his wife works full time. "We are trying to rethink our priorities (優(yōu)先考慮的事) and family seem to be N0 1 priority while in the past maybe people were more focused on career. "

The study involved nearly 4.000 fathers who were interviewed in person between 2009 and 2013.

◇ Key findings among fathers living with children younger than 5 :

*9 in 10 bathed, diapered, helped them use the toilet or get dressed at least several times weekly .

* Even higher numbers played with them and ate meals with them that often

* Almost 2 0ut of 3 read to them at least several times weekly.

◇Among dads living with kids aged 5-18.

* More than 9 0ut of 10 ate meals with them at least several times weekly and talked with them about what happened during the kids' day that often.

* Almost 2 0ut of 3 helped with homework several times weekly.

* About half took their kids to or from activities that often.

Dr. David Hill, a Wilmington, N. C. pediatrician (兒科醫(yī)生) said the survey reflects what he's seen among his patients' fathers. Increasingly, fathers rather than mothers take their kids to the doctor. Some "are anxious about changing a diaper, " he said.

Census(調(diào)查) numbers show that there were almost 190,000 stay-at-home dads nationwide last year versus 93,000 in 2010. Loftus, the New York stay-at-home dad, said, "I feel fortunate to be able to be such a hands-on father. I'm doing the most significant occupation in the world. "

1.What can we learn about the research?

A. It aimed to study fathers' influence on kids.

B. It showed most fathers often helped kids learn.

C. It found most fathers played with kids every day.

D. It mainly surveyed fathers' living with young kids.

2.According to the text, Robert Loftus would agree that______.

A. time is important for success

B. it is harder to find a job than before

C. family is more important than work

D. today's people are under much pressure

3.Dr David Hill seems to consider the findings of the report ______ .

A. surprising B. misleading

C. convincing D. unimportant

4.What can we learn from Loftus' s words in the last paragraph?

A. He is proud of his efforts.

B. He prefers to work full time.

C. He needs his wife' s support very much.

D. He finds it hard to be a stay-at-home dad.

5.Which of the following can be the best title for the text?

A. More stay-at-home dads in America

B. Parents spend more time with children .

C. The importance of family for Americans

D. American dads more involved in parenting
