Passage ThreeFor more than six million American children, coming home after school means coming home to an empty house. They spend part of each day alone. They are called "latchkey children". They're children who look after themselves while their parents work. And their bad conditions have become a social problem.Lyne Brown was once the headmaster of an elementary school. She said, "A lot of kids had chains around their necks with keys attached.! was constantly telling them to put them inside shirts. There were so many keys, it never came to my mind what they meant. ",slowly, she learned they were house keys.Lyne learned of the impact working couples and single parents were having on their children. She found that Fear is the biggest problem faced by children at home alone. Many had nightmares and were worried about their own safety.The most common way latchkey children deal with their fears is by hiding. It might be in a shower stall, under a bed, in a closet. The second is TV. They'll often play it at high volume. It's hard to get statistics (情况，材料) on latchkey children. Most parents are slow to admit they leave their children alone.41. The main idea about "latchkey children" is that they______.A. are growing in numbersB. are also found in middle-class neighborhoodsC. watch too much television during the dayD. suffer problems from being left alone

共用题干第一篇Pushbike DangerLow speed bicycle crashes can badly injure一or even kill一children if they fall onto the ends of the handlebars（车把）.So a team of engineers is redesigning it to make it safer.Kristy Arbogast,a bioengineer at the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia in Pennsylvania,began the project with her colleagues.The cases they reviewed about serious abdominal（腹部的）injuries in children in the past 30 years showed that more than a third were caused by bicycle accidents."The task was to identify how the injuries occurred and come up with some countermeasures."she says.By interviewing the children and their parents,Arbogast and her team were able to reconstruct many of the accidents and identified a common cause for serious injuries.They discovered that most cases occur when children hit an obstacle at slow speed,causing them to topple（摇摆）over. To maintain their balance the children turn the handlebars through 90 degrees一but their momentum（冲力）forces them into the end of the handlebars.The bike then falls over and the other end of the handlebars hits the ground, pushing it into their abdomen（腹部）.The solution the group came up with is a handgrip（握柄）fitted with a spring and damping（减速）system. The spring absorbs up to 50 per cent of the forces transmitted （传递）through the handlebars in an impact. The group hopes to commercialize the device, which should add only a few dollars to the cost of a bike."But our task has been one of education because up until now,bicycle manufacturers were unaware of the problem." says Arbogast.How many abdominal injuries in children were caused by bicycle accidents?A:Thirty. B:Ninety.C:50 percent. D:More than a third.

问答题The celebrations of Easter have many customs and legends that have nothing to do with Christianity. Among various symbols associated with Easter, Easter bonny has been playing an important part. In pagan times, the “Easter hare” was no ordinary animal, but a sacred companion of the old goddess of spring, Eastre. The Easter bunny has its origin in pre-Christian fertility lore. The Hare and the Rabbit were the most fertile animals known and they served as symbols of the new life during the Spring season. Hares are animals which look like rabbits, but are larger and in many countries quite rare. In most places, the Easter rabbit (bunny) has replaced the Easter hare completely. Since long before Jesus Christ was born, parents told their children that the magic hare would bring them presents at the spring festival. The presents were often painted eggs, as these represented the new life starting at this time of year.
