Children may get into some bad habits ___________ they lack self-discipline.

D.until

参考解析

解析:考查连词辨析。因为前后句是条件关系,故空缺处应填的是表示条件的连词。though表示让步,until表示时间,故排除C和D。unless作为连词时表示“除非,如果不”,含有否定意义。相当于if条件状语从句的否定形式,unless=if...not。这里when相当于if,引导条件状语从句。句意为“孩子们如果缺乏自律性.他们可能会养成一些坏习惯”。

共用题干Step Back in TimeDo you know that we live a lot longer now than the people who were born before us?One hundred years ago the average woman lived to be 45.But now,she can live until at least 80.One of the main reasons for people living longer is that we know how to look after ourselves better. We know which foods are good for us and what we have to eat to make sure our bodies get all the healthy things they need.We know why we sometimes get ill and what to do to get better again.And we know how important it is to do lots of exercise to keep our hearts beating healthily.But in order that we don't slip back into bad habits,let's have a look at what life was like 100 years ago.Families had between 15 and 20 children,although many babies didn't live long. Children suffered from lots of diseases , especially rickets(佝偻病)and scurvy(坏血病), which are both caused by bad diets.This is because many families were very poor and not able to feed their children well.Really poor families who lived in crowded cities like London and Manchester often slept standing up,bending over a piece of string,because there was no room for them to lie down.People didn't have fridges until the 1 920s.They kept fresh food cold by storing it on windowsills(窗台板),blocks of ice, or even burying it in the garden.Some children had to start work at the age of seven or eight to earn money for their parents. If you had lived 1 00 years ago , you might well be selling matchsticks(火柴杆)(a job done by many children)or working with your dad by now. Life was not easy for many children living 100 years ago.A:Right B:Wrong C:Not mentioned

资料:Stress is a common factor in life. Children experience stress from school, new social situations and simply growing up. Adults feel the stress of working, paying bills, raising kids and maintaining households. Seniors also feel stress, even though some may have retired, raised their children and paid off their homes. Certain amounts of stress are a part of life for people of all ages.For seniors, stress has the potential to be especially overwhelming. This type of tension in older adults has unique contributing factors, such as the loss of an elderly spouse or friends. Living alone can increase the sense of isolation. Sometimes the simple tasks of everyday life can cause stress in those who experience physical or medical limitations. The effects of stress can sometimes exacerbate health conditions from which some seniors suffer, causing additional worry.Stress can be detected in various ways. You may follow the five most common ways to find out if a loved one’s stress is cause for concern:1. Changes in eating habits, such as over-eating or loss of appetite, can be caused by overwhelming stress.2. Mood swings due to stress may present in increased irritability, general sadness or depression.3. Memory issues may arise in the form of increased forgetfulness of names, places or other things that normally come naturally. Lack of concentration may become a problem. Some seniors may exercise poor judgment, such as excessive spending when they are already on a limited budget.4. Physical signs of stress can include body aches and pains or increased episodes of illness. Changes in sleeping patterns—either trouble falling asleep or interrupted nighttime sleep—can signal significant stress.5. Seniors experiencing overwhelming stress often isolate themselves from others, refusing to socialize or participate in activities they used to enjoy.Which of the following is NOT true about stress according to the passage?A.Changing schools may cause children’s stress.B.Seniors would feel stress of paying mortgage.C.Grown-ups would get stress from raising kids.D.Loss of a friend may be the source of stress for seniors.

共用题干Kicking the HabitWhat is a bad habit?The most common definition is that it is something that we do regularly,almost without thinking about it,and which has some sort of negative consequence.This consequence could affect those around us,or it could affect us personally.Those who deny having bad habits are probably lying. Bad habits are part of what makes us human.Many early habits,like sucking our thumb,are broken when we are very young.We are either told to stop doing it by our parents,or we consciously or subconsciously observe that others do not have the same habit,and we gradually grow out of it.It is when we intentionally or unintentionally pick up new habits in our later childhood or early adulthood that it becomes a problem.Unless we can break that habit early on,it becomes a part of our life,and becomnes"programmed"into our brain.A recent study of human memory suggests that no matter how hard we try to change our habits,it is the old ways that tend to win,especially in situations where we are rushed,stressed or overworked.Habits that we thought we had got rid of can suddenly come back.During the study programme,the researchers showed a group of volunteers several pictures, and gave them words to associate with them.They then showed the volunteers the same pictures again,and gave them new words to associate with them.A few days later,the volunteers were given a test.The researchers showed them the pictures,and told them to respond with one of the words they had been given for each one.It came as no surprise that their answers were split between the first set of words and the second.Two weeks later,they were given the same test again.This time,most of them only gave the first set of words.They appeared to have completely forgottenthe second set.The study confirms that the responses we learn first are those that remain strongest over time.We may try to change out ways,but after a while,the response that comes to mind first is usually the first one we learned.The more that response is used,the more automatic it becomes and the harder it becomes to re- spond in any other way.The study therefore suggests that over time,our bad habits also become automatic,learned behaviour. This is not good news for people who picked up bad habits early in life and now want to change or break them.Even when we try to put new,good intentions into practice,those previously learned habits remain stronger in more automatic,unconscious forms of memory.Bad habits may return when we are under pressure.A:RightB:WrongC:Not mentioned

Teaching Children to Spend Pocket Money Wisely School-going children need pocket money for food, stationery and bus fares. Parents give pocket money to their children in different ways. Some give a lump sum at the beginning of a month or a week. ____1____ The way in which pocket money is given affects how money is spent or saved. On the other hand, the children's spending habits may affect how pocket money is given. Pocket money given on a daily basis is sometimes termed as "food money". ____2____ They learn how to manage small sums of money. As the money is limited, they have to control their spending. Some parents choose this method of allocating pocket money in order to prevent their children from overspending, hoping that in time they can be trusted with larger sums of money. ____3____. Giving pocket money on a daily basis places responsibilities of budgeting on the parents, instead of the child.

This results in children being short-sighted in their spending. ____4____ They may develop the mentality that money is meant to be spent. Others spend more than they are given. They borrow from their siblings or their classmates when they feel like indulging themselves. Then they may ask for money to pay off their debts. This habit of borrowing causes them to depend on others to solve their problems. ____5____.____3____内应选()A、There is no better way to teach children to manage money than to start with their pocket money.B、The thought of saving money never crossed their minds.C、Children usually use the pocket money to buy food during recess and also at lunch hour if they have school activities in the afternoon.D、Others prefer to give pocket money on a daily basis.E、Parents who earn daily wages may also opt for this due to financial constraints.F、In such instances, the purpose of rationing is defeated.
