【題目】Every country has its heroes.The heroes are the people the nation and especially the young people admire. If you get a list of the heroes of a nation, it will tell you the potential(潛力) of that nation.

Today in America, if you ask the high school students to list their heroes, their choices would probably fall into three groups. The first group of heroes would be the rock stars—the people connected with rock music. There is no doubt that such people do have talent(才能). But one wonders if one should treat rock stars as a model. The rock stars too often are mixed with drugs and their personal life is not all that good. The rock stars are rich and wear the latest fashion styles. However, one should seek more in a hero than such things as money and good clothes.

A second type of hero for the American youth is the sports star. Again you have a person who has a great ability in one area—sports. However, too often the personal life of the sports star is a bit of disorder. Too frequently drugs and drinking are a part of life of the sports star.

A third type of hero is the TV or movie star. This person may have lots of acting talent and is quite handsome. However, the personal life of too many actors is quite sad and they should not be held up as a model of young people. Today, the rock star, the athlete and the actor all have become the models of the youth in America. Really, do you hear a young person say that his hero is a doctor, a teacher or a scientist? These people are not rich and do not wear fashionable clothes. However, they are talented people who work hard to make the world a better place for everyone.

What is really sad is that the young try to imitate(模仿) their heroes. They like to wear the same clothes and follow their styles. If the heroes of today for the American young people are limited only to rock stars, athletes and actors, the future does not look too bright.

【1】The last sentence of the first paragraph implies that ________.

A. if a nation has a lot of heroes, it will be strong

B. heroes of a nation will make the nation itself

C. what the people admire will make the future of the nation

D. if you want to be a hero, you must admire the hero

【2】According to the writer, people should admire those ________.

A. who are rich and wear the latest fashion clothes

B. who can express people’s feelings

C. whose personal life is good

D. who work for the interests of the people

【3】What is the writer’s attitude towards American youth’s admiration?

A. He understands it.

B. He criticizes it.

C. He is angry about it.

D. He is uninterested in it.

【答案】

【1】C

【2】D

【3】B

【解析】

試題分析：當代美國青少年心目中的英雄是什么？文章講述了現(xiàn)在美國青少年心中的三種英雄。

【1】C 推理判斷題。根據(jù)第一段提到If you get a list of the heroes of a nation, it will tell you the potential(潛力) of that nation.（如果你看到一個國家的英雄名單，這將告訴你這個國家的潛力），故選C項。

【2】D 推理判斷題。根據(jù)倒數(shù)第二段內(nèi)容可知，人們應(yīng)該以讓世界變得更美好的人為榜樣，也就是為人民的利益工作的人，故選D項。

【3】B 推理判斷題。根據(jù)最后一段提到現(xiàn)在的年輕人只是一味的模仿偶像的穿著和風(fēng)格，這是非常不明智的，所以是持批判的態(tài)度，故選B項。

【題目】根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容，從短文后的選項中選出能填入空白處的最佳選項。選項中有兩項為多余選項。

【1】 Being angry doesn’t really solve much, but what people do when they feel angry is important. The goal is to calm down and try to solve what is bothering you. This is hard for some kids and adults, too. Instead of calming down, some kids might keep getting more and more upset until they explode like a volcano!

【2】 Their anger might be so strong that they lose control of their temper. They may act in ways unacceptable and hurtful. People may say that someone has trouble controlling their temper. 【3】

Some kids might get so angry that they scream at their parents, break something, or even worse, hit their brothers or sisters. 【4】 However, it’s not OK for a kid to do any of those things. Kids don’t want to act in this way, but sometimes angry feelings can be hard to manage. So what to do?

Well, the good news is that kids don’t just have to keep making the same mistakes over and over again. 【5】 Imagine your temper as a puppy inside you that needs some training. The puppy is not bad—it will probably turn out a great dog. It just needs to learn some rules because, right now, that puppy is causing some problems to you.

A. Kids should be allowed to express their feelings, even angry ones.

B. You can train you temper.

C. You don’t want to cause trouble.

D. Some kids get angry more often or more easily than some other kids.

E. Instead of thinking of the person you’re angry with, think of something else.

F. In fact, they usually mean that a kid behaves badly when feeling angry.

G. Everybody gets angry sometimes.
