2．My mother always told me，"You should explore your own country before stepping out into the world．"However，it seems like a tough mission to travel all across its expansive surfaces．But luckily for me，Via Rail Canada offered youths between the ages of 18 and 25 the chance to ride the train across Canada for the month of July．The ticket was a bargain ＄150．My best friends Trevor，Joel and Jeremy and I immediately jumped at the opportunity and secured four tickets on the great Canadian railroad．
For a group of 20-year-olds，this was like the first flight of young birds from the nest．When we approached the train station in the morning，our 22-day adventure from Sudbury to Vancouver was to begin．Eyes baggy from lack of sleep，we jumped on board as if it was the train to Hogwarts in Harry Potter．Although the thought of three full days on those tracks covering close to 3，000 kilometres crushed our spirits a little，what happened next caught us by surprise．
The three days on board turned into a summer camp on rails．At night，we would climb up the glass-domed train car，which gave us a scenic view of the starry night sky，untouched by the harmful light pollution．Before we knew it，the warm sun rays beating down on our faces woke us up for another day on the rails．To my surprise，a sea of golden grain fields dominated the landscape we were in the Canadian Prairies．
Another day slipped away and we set up for another night in the dome．And this time we were greeted by night sky painted by a fantastic thunderstorm．Lightning was striking at an incredible rate．The spectacular and memorable light show left everyone in the glass bubble in complete disbelief．
Arriving in the Rocky Mountains was one of the most surreal（超現(xiàn)實(shí)的）experiences of my life．Before the train adventure，if I could have skipped the travel and arrived at the destination，I would have．That is no longer true．I've learned that the journey can be more enjoyable than the destination．
（1）What has made the author's train adventure across Canada a reality？
A．The encouragement given by his mother．
B．The appeal of the scenic views in the country．
C．The discount ticket offered by Via Rail Canada．
D．His great courage to challenge a tough mission．
（2）What can we infer about the young people from Paragraph 2？
A．They were excited about the coming train journey．
B．They left their parents for the first time in their life．
C．They never thought of having a train adventure．
D．They were hooked by the magic story of Harry Potter．
（3）What does "the glass bubble" in the fourth paragraph refer to？
A．A brain in lack of imagination．
B．The glass-domed train car．
C．A summer camp on the train．
D．The sightseeing bus．
（4）What did the author learn from the train adventure across Canada？
A．Opportunities are hard to get．
B．Enjoying a journey counts a lot．
C．Splendid scenery attracts young people．
D．The traveling experience is not real to him．組卷：8引用：2難度：0.5 -
3．It's generally acknowledged that raising a child has geographic features．A recent survey，for example，looked at the personalities parents wanted their children to have in different countries．The finding was fascinating：Dutch parents focused on rest，cleanliness and routine；Italian parents preferred their children to be even-tempered，well-balanced and likeable；American parents，meanwhile，were more likely to want their kids to be intelligent or cognitively advanced．
The US preference represents the shift in the way American parents raise their children，a transition from the so-called latchkey kids of the 1980s to the helicoptered children of today．With more parents adopting the kind of intensive parenting style common in the US，parenting in European nations，traditionally more relaxed，is changing．
Intensive parenting is a type of parenting that requires a significant amount of time and money，including scheduling children for additional activities，as well as advocating for their needs and talents in communications with schools．It's not limited to a small circle of parents but the dominant cultural model of parenting in the US．
The increasing fear of inequality makes parents feel the need to help drive their children's education．The inequality，in their opinions，is making it critical for the kids not to be left behind．And so they will assume a parenting style that is more intense and more success-oriented．Thus the intensive parenting approach has become a parenting style influencing the overall parenting culture in Europe．
The intensification（加強(qiáng)）of parenting has consequences for nations，parents and children．One of the problems is that it increases economic inequality．In the 1960s，for example，when there was less emphasis on developing children's talents and interests，parents across social classes spent similar amounts of time and money on their kids．
Experts also point to the large volume of parenting books，blog posts and articles now available to those raising families．Even if parents are skeptical of expert advice，they are still influenced by it．Turning kids into well-rounded and successful personalities is naturally becoming their life-long pursuit．
（1）What does the study mentioned in the first paragraph indicate？
A．A well-balanced child is more likeable in Dutch．
B．How kids are brought up varies from area to area．
C．A kid's cognitive ability is fixed by geographic features．
D．Being clean is preferred by American parents．
（2）What can be concluded about intensive parenting？
A．It needs much involvement of parents．
B．It makes kids more relaxed than before．
C．It has been criticized．
D．It is out of date in the US．
（3）What a possible result can intensive parenting bring？
A．Weakening the ties between parents and their kids．
B．Intensifying the inequality among the people economically．
C．Relieving the depression and anxiety of parents．
D．Meeting a strong protest from most European parents．
（4）What's the best title of the passage？
A．American Parenting Mode Swings Back
B．Returning to the Traditional Parenting Mode
C．Parenting Makes Parents over Stressed
D．Intensive Parenting Is Sweeping through the US組卷：7引用：1難度：0.5
