Ⅰ.阅读理解
A
In Mark Turin’s article“Protecting Our Public Spaces” in issue 14, he claims that “all graffiti(涂鸦) is vandalism(故意破坏财物的行为), pure and simple, and offers no benefit to our public spaces”. I would like to point out that many people believe that graffiti is an art form that can benefit our public spaces just as much as sculptures, fountains, or other more accepted art forms.
People who object to graffiti usually do so more because of where it is, not what it is. They argue that posting graffiti in public places is considered an illegal act of property damage. But the location of such graffiti should not prevent the images themselves from being considered real art.
I would argue that graffiti is the most important public art form. Spray paint is a medium unlike any other. Through graffiti, the entire world has become a canvas(画布). These works of art dotting the urban landscape are available, free of charge, to everyone who passes by.
To be clear, I do not consider random words or names sprayed on stop signs to be art. Plenty of graffiti is just vandalism, pure and simple. However, there is also graffiti that is breathtaking in its complex detail, its realism, or its creativity. It takes great talent to create such involved designs with spray paint. Are these creators not artists just because they use a can of spray paint instead of a paintbrush?
To declare that all graffiti is vandalism, and nothing more, is an overly simplistic statement. Furthermore, graffiti is not going anywhere, so we might as well find a way to live with it and enjoy its benefits. One option could be to make a percentage of public spaces open to graffiti artists. By doing this, the public might feel like part owners of these works of art, rather than just the victims of a crime.
【解题导语】 本文是一篇议论文。文章通过论述涂鸦与公共空间的关系,进而探讨涂鸦是否为艺术。作者认为判断其是否为艺术应该根据涂鸦的质量而非存在的地方。
1.Mark Turin apparently believes that graffiti ________.
A.is not an art form
B.is too simple to be considered art
C.can only sometimes be considered a work of art
D.should be restricted to places where it is allowed
A 解析:细节理解题。根据第一段第一句“In Mark Turin’s article ‘Protecting Our Public Spaces’ in issue 14, he claims that ‘all graffiti(涂鸦) is vandalism(故意破坏财物的行为), pure and simple, and offers no benefit to our public spaces’.”可知,Mark Turin显然认为涂鸦不是一种艺术形式。
2.The author argues that graffiti ________.
A.is the only art form that is free
B.is best viewed on public walls rather than canvases
C.provides more public benefits than sculptures do
D.should be judged on artistic qualities rather than places
D 解析:细节理解题。根据对全文的整体理解,尤其是第二段最后一句“But the location of such graffiti should not prevent the images themselves from being considered real art.”可知,作者认为评价涂鸦应该根据其艺术品质而不是其所在地点。

Growing Pains
The term “adulting” started as a sort of joke—whenever a millennial(千禧一代) would do something ageappropriate, this was an act of “adulting”. Now, though, millennials obviously require training in being an adult.
Rachel Flehinger has cofounded an Adulting School, which includes online courses on simple sewing, conflict resolution and cooking. The cause for such classes is that many millennials haven’t left childhood homes—in America 34 percent of adults aged 18 to 34 still lived with their parents as of 2015, up from 26 percent a decade before.
There’s a good deal of truth to this. If you’re living at home, with Mom and Dad doing their best to spoil(溺爱) you, you’re less likely to know how to do laundry, cook or balance a checkbook. Dependency__breeds__enervation.
But living at home doesn’t necessarily lead to dependency. As of 1940, more than 30 percent of 25 to 29yearolds lived at home with parents or grandparents. They were adulting, even while living at home. Parents expected their kids to do chores, to prepare for life. Instead of blaming living at home, then, we have to blame our style of parenting. The truth is that we’ve simply become lazier as parents.
So what’s the real problem?
We’re more likely to let our kids crash on our couches(长沙发) than tell them to get a job and pay rent. We don’t push our kids to build families of their own, as life expectancy has increased, so has adolescence. Americans aren’t expected to start building a life, particularly middleand upperclass Americans, until they’re nearing their 30s. Then the question is how we can encourage young people to “adult” in noncircumstancedriven fashion.
【解题导语】 千禧一代的孩子接受着父母的宠爱,他们很多人不知道如何洗衣、做饭、管理生活收支,不能独立;所以有必要在他们成人之前培训他们缝纫、解决冲突、烹饪等简单的生活技能。事实上,是父母的养育方式导致孩子不能独立,父母应当让孩子去承担他们的责任。
4.What does the last sentence “Dependency breeds enervation.” in the third paragraph mean?
A.Parents would like to do housework by themselves.
B.Present kids are too lazy to do housework.
C.Dependency makes kids unable to do things.
D.Kids depend on their parents.
C 解析:句意理解题。根据第三段第二句可知,如果你住在家里,爸爸妈妈竭尽全力溺爱你,你就不太可能知道如何洗衣服、做饭或平衡收支。画线句为进一步的总结,据此可推知,画线句意在表达:过度依赖父母会使孩子丧失做事情的能力。故C项正确。
5.Which of the following statements is TRUE?
A.Millennials would like to be trained in being an adult.
B.Parents are too lazy to do chores.
C.Millennials don’t adult because they still live in their childhood homes.
D.In the 1940s kids were adulting even when they were living at home.
D 解析:细节理解题。根据第四段第二、三句可知,自20世纪40年代起,有超过30%的25至29岁的人与父母或祖父母一起住在家里;但即使和家人同住,他们也很成熟。故D项正确。
6.Which of the following statements is the main idea of the passage?
A.“Adulting” is hard, but only because parents are too lazy to teach their kids.
B.Millennials should leave home early to adult.
C.Americans aren’t expected to start building a life until they’re nearing their 30s.
D.Adulting schools with online courses are popular.
A 解析:主旨大意题。根据第四段尾句“The truth is that we’ve simply become lazier as parents.”并结合全文其他内容可知,本文主要论述了由于父母的过分宠爱和懒得教孩子们生活技能,现在许多千禧一代的孩子不能独立,不知道如何洗衣、做饭、管理生活收支等。故A项正确。
7.According to the passage, what will be written about next?
A.The government should put off the age of adulthood.
B.Parents should leave kids in charge of society.
C.Parents should put responsibility on young people.
D.Pushing kids to adult is painful for parents.
C 解析:推理判断题。根据本文最后一句可知,接下来的问题是,我们如何鼓励年轻人以非环境驱动的方式“成年”。据此可推知,下文将介绍家长如何鼓励孩子们承担生活的责任。故C项正确。
【难句分析】 If you’re living at home, with Mom and Dad doing their best to spoil(溺爱) you, you’re less likely to know how to do laundry, cook or balance a checkbook.
分析:本句是一个主从复合句。句中“If you’re living at home”为if引导的条件状语从句,“how to do laundry, cook or balance a checkbook”为“疑问副词+不定式”结构,作know的宾语;“with Mom and Dad doing their best to spoil(溺爱) you”为with复合结构,作状语。
译文:如果你住在家里,父母尽最大努力溺爱你,那你不太可能知道如何洗衣、做饭和管理生活收支。

Ⅰ.阅读理解
A
In Mark Turin’s article“Protecting Our Public Spaces” in issue 14, he claims that “all graffiti(涂鸦) is vandalism(故意破坏财物的行为), pure and simple, and offers no benefit to our public spaces”. I would like to point out that many people believe that graffiti is an art form that can benefit our public spaces just as much as sculptures, fountains, or other more accepted art forms.
People who object to graffiti usually do so more because of where it is, not what it is. They argue that posting graffiti in public places is considered an illegal act of property damage. But the location of such graffiti should not prevent the images themselves from being considered real art.
I would argue that graffiti is the most important public art form. Spray paint is a medium unlike any other. Through graffiti, the entire world has become a canvas(画布). These works of art dotting the urban landscape are available, free of charge, to everyone who passes by.
To be clear, I do not consider random words or names sprayed on stop signs to be art. Plenty of graffiti is just vandalism, pure and simple. However, there is also graffiti that is breathtaking in its complex detail, its realism, or its creativity. It takes great talent to create such involved designs with spray paint. Are these creators not artists just because they use a can of spray paint instead of a paintbrush?
To declare that all graffiti is vandalism, and nothing more, is an overly simplistic statement. Furthermore, graffiti is not going anywhere, so we might as well find a way to live with it and enjoy its benefits. One option could be to make a percentage of public spaces open to graffiti artists. By doing this, the public might feel like part owners of these works of art, rather than just the victims of a crime.
【解题导语】 本文是一篇议论文。文章通过论述涂鸦与公共空间的关系,进而探讨涂鸦是否为艺术。作者认为判断其是否为艺术应该根据涂鸦的质量而非存在的地方。
1.Mark Turin apparently believes that graffiti ________.
A.is not an art form
B.is too simple to be considered art
C.can only sometimes be considered a work of art
D.should be restricted to places where it is allowed
A 解析:细节理解题。根据第一段第一句“In Mark Turin’s article ‘Protecting Our Public Spaces’ in issue 14, he claims that ‘all graffiti(涂鸦) is vandalism(故意破坏财物的行为), pure and simple, and offers no benefit to our public spaces’.”可知,Mark Turin显然认为涂鸦不是一种艺术形式。
2.The author argues that graffiti ________.
A.is the only art form that is free
B.is best viewed on public walls rather than canvases
C.provides more public benefits than sculptures do
D.should be judged on artistic qualities rather than places
D 解析:细节理解题。根据对全文的整体理解,尤其是第二段最后一句“But the location of such graffiti should not prevent the images themselves from being considered real art.”可知,作者认为评价涂鸦应该根据其艺术品质而不是其所在地点。
3.The author concludes his passage by ________.
A.restating his position
B.questioning the magazine
C.offering an answer to the matter
D.identifying the benefits of graffiti
C 解析:推理判断题。根据最后一段的内容尤其是“One option could be to make a percentage of public spaces open to graffiti artists.”可推知,作者是通过提供一个解决办法来结束文章的。
B
Growing Pains
The term “adulting” started as a sort of joke—whenever a millennial(千禧一代) would do something ageappropriate, this was an act of “adulting”. Now, though, millennials obviously require training in being an adult.
Rachel Flehinger has cofounded an Adulting School, which includes online courses on simple sewing, conflict resolution and cooking. The cause for such classes is that many millennials haven’t left childhood homes—in America 34 percent of adults aged 18 to 34 still lived with their parents as of 2015, up from 26 percent a decade before.
There’s a good deal of truth to this. If you’re living at home, with Mom and Dad doing their best to spoil(溺爱) you, you’re less likely to know how to do laundry, cook or balance a checkbook. Dependency__breeds__enervation.
But living at home doesn’t necessarily lead to dependency. As of 1940, more than 30 percent of 25 to 29yearolds lived at home with parents or grandparents. They were adulting, even while living at home. Parents expected their kids to do chores, to prepare for life. Instead of blaming living at home, then, we have to blame our style of parenting. The truth is that we’ve simply become lazier as parents.
So what’s the real problem?
We’re more likely to let our kids crash on our couches(长沙发) than tell them to get a job and pay rent. We don’t push our kids to build families of their own, as life expectancy has increased, so has adolescence. Americans aren’t expected to start building a life, particularly middleand upperclass Americans, until they’re nearing their 30s. Then the question is how we can encourage young people to “adult” in noncircumstancedriven fashion.
【解题导语】 千禧一代的孩子接受着父母的宠爱,他们很多人不知道如何洗衣、做饭、管理生活收支,不能独立;所以有必要在他们成人之前培训他们缝纫、解决冲突、烹饪等简单的生活技能。事实上,是父母的养育方式导致孩子不能独立,父母应当让孩子去承担他们的责任。
4.What does the last sentence “Dependency breeds enervation.” in the third paragraph mean?
A.Parents would like to do housework by themselves.
B.Present kids are too lazy to do housework.
C.Dependency makes kids unable to do things.
D.Kids depend on their parents.
C 解析:句意理解题。根据第三段第二句可知,如果你住在家里,爸爸妈妈竭尽全力溺爱你,你就不太可能知道如何洗衣服、做饭或平衡收支。画线句为进一步的总结,据此可推知,画线句意在表达:过度依赖父母会使孩子丧失做事情的能力。故C项正确。
5.Which of the following statements is TRUE?
A.Millennials would like to be trained in being an adult.
B.Parents are too lazy to do chores.
C.Millennials don’t adult because they still live in their childhood homes.
D.In the 1940s kids were adulting even when they were living at home.
D 解析:细节理解题。根据第四段第二、三句可知,自20世纪40年代起,有超过30%的25至29岁的人与父母或祖父母一起住在家里;但即使和家人同住,他们也很成熟。故D项正确。
6.Which of the following statements is the main idea of the passage?
A.“Adulting” is hard, but only because parents are too lazy to teach their kids.
B.Millennials should leave home early to adult.
C.Americans aren’t expected to start building a life until they’re nearing their 30s.
D.Adulting schools with online courses are popular.
A 解析:主旨大意题。根据第四段尾句“The truth is that we’ve simply become lazier as parents.”并结合全文其他内容可知,本文主要论述了由于父母的过分宠爱和懒得教孩子们生活技能,现在许多千禧一代的孩子不能独立,不知道如何洗衣、做饭、管理生活收支等。故A项正确。
7.According to the passage, what will be written about next?
A.The government should put off the age of adulthood.
B.Parents should leave kids in charge of society.
C.Parents should put responsibility on young people.
D.Pushing kids to adult is painful for parents.
C 解析:推理判断题。根据本文最后一句可知,接下来的问题是,我们如何鼓励年轻人以非环境驱动的方式“成年”。据此可推知,下文将介绍家长如何鼓励孩子们承担生活的责任。故C项正确。
【难句分析】 If you’re living at home, with Mom and Dad doing their best to spoil(溺爱) you, you’re less likely to know how to do laundry, cook or balance a checkbook.
分析:本句是一个主从复合句。句中“If you’re living at home”为if引导的条件状语从句,“how to do laundry, cook or balance a checkbook”为“疑问副词+不定式”结构,作know的宾语;“with Mom and Dad doing their best to spoil(溺爱) you”为with复合结构,作状语。
译文:如果你住在家里,父母尽最大努力溺爱你,那你不太可能知道如何洗衣、做饭和管理生活收支。
