Still, when Lenore Skenazy, a columnist for the
New York Sun, wrote about letting her son take
the subway alone to get back to story
short:my
son got home from a department store on the Upper
East Side, she didn’t expect to get
hit with a
wave of criticism from readers.“Long story short:
My son got home, overjoyed with
independence,”
Skenazy wrote on April 4 in the New York Sun.
“Long story longer: Half the
people I’ve told
this episode to now want to turn on in for child
abuse. As if keeping kids under
lock and key
and cell phone and careful watch is the right way
to rear kids. It’s not. It’s
debilitating
(使虚弱)—for us and for them.”Online message boards
were soon full of people both
applauding and
condemning Skenazy’s decision to let her son go it
alone. She wound up
defending herself on CNN
(accompanied by her son) and on popular blogs like
the buffington post,
where her follow-up piece
was ironically headlined “More From America’s
Worst Mom.”The
episode has ignited another one
of those debates that divides parents into vocal
opposing camps.
Are Modern parents needlessly
overprotective, or is the world a more complicated
and dangerous
place than it was when previous
generations were allowed to wander about
unsupervised?From
the “she’s an irresponsible
mother” camp came: “Shame on you for being so
careless about his
safety,” in Comments on the
buffongton post. And there was this from a mother
of four: “How
would you have felt if he didn’t
come home?” But Skenazy got a lot of support, too,
with women
and men writing in with stories
about how they were allowed to take trips all by
them selves at
seven or eight. She also got
heaps of praise for bucking the “helicopter
parent” trend: “Good for
this Mom,” one
commenter wrote on the buffongton post. “This is a
much-needed reality
check.”Last week,
encouraged by all the attention, Skenazy started
her own blog—Free Range,
kids—promoting the
idea that modern children need some of the same
independence that her
generation had. In the
good old days nine-year-old baby boomers rode
their bikes to school,
walked to the store,
took buses—and even subways—all by themselves. Her
blog, she says, is
dedicated to sensible
parenting. “At Free Range Kids, we believe in safe
kids. We believe in car
seats and safety
belts. We do NOT believe that every time school-
age children go outside, they

so nervous about letting their children out of

Part IV Reading
Comprehension (Reading in Depth) (25 minutes)
(1)Directions: In this section, there is a
short passage with 5 questions or incomplete
statements.
Read the passage carefully. Then
answer the questions or complete statements in the
fewest
possible words. Please write your
answers on Answer Sheet ons 47 to 51 are based on
the
following is nothing new about TV and
fashion magazines giving girls unhealthy
ideas
about how thin they need to be in order to be
considered beautiful. What is surprising is the
method psycholo gists at the University of
Texas have come up with to keep girls from
developing
eating disorders. Their main weapon
against superskinny (role) models: a brand of
civil
disobedience dubbed “body
activism.”Since 2001, more than 1,000 high school
and college
students in the U.S. have
participated in the Body Project, which works by
getting girls to
understand how they have been
buying into the notion that you have to be thin to
be happy or

successful. After critiquing (评论) the so-
called thin ideal by writing essays and role-
playing with
their peers, participants are
directed to come up with and execute small,
nonviolent acts. They
include slipping notes
saying “Love your body the way it is” into dieting
books at stores like
Borders and writing
letters to Mattel, makers of the impossibly
proportioned Barbie
ing to a study in the
latest issue of the Journal of Consulting and
Clinical Psychology,
the risk of developing
eating disorders was reduced 61% among Body
Project participants. And
they continued to
exhibit positive body-image attitudes as long as
three years after completing the
program,
which consists, of four one-hour sessions. Such
lasting effects may be due to girls’
realizing
not only how they were being influenced but also
who was benefiting from the societal
pressure
to be thin. “These people who promote the perfect
body really don’t care about you at
all,” says
Kelsey Hertel, a high school junior and Body
Project veteran in Eugene, Oregon. “They
purposefully make you feel like less of a
person so you’ll buy their stuff and they’ll make
money.”注意:此部分试题请在答题卡2上作答。
Part
IV Reading Comprehension (Reading in Depth) (25
minutes)
(1)Passage OneQuestions 52 to 56
are based on the following hundreds of millions
of
years, turtles (海龟) have struggled out of
the sea to lay their eggs on sandy beaches, long
before
there were nature documentaries to
celebrate them, or GPS satellites and marine
biologists to track
them, or volunteers to
hand-carry the hatchlings (幼龟) down to the water’s
edge lest they become
disoriented by
headlights and crawl towards a motel parking lot
instead. A formidable wall of
bureaucracy has
been erected to protect their prime nesting on the
Atlantic coastlines. With all that
attention
paid to them, you’d think these creatures would at
least have the gratitude not to go
Nature is
indifferent to human notions of fairness, and a
report by the Fish and
Wildlife Service showed
a worrisome drop in the populations of several
species of North Atlantic
turtles, notably
loggerheads, which can grow to as much as 400
pounds. The South Florida nesting
population,
the largest, has declined by 50% in the last
decade, according to Elizabeth Griffin, a
marine biologist with the environmental group
Oceana. The figures prompted Oceana to petition
the government to upgrade the level of
protection for the North Atlantic loggerheads from
“threatened” to “endangered”—meaning they are
in danger of disappearing without additional
raises the obvious question: what else do these
turtles want from us, anyway? It turns
out,
according to Griffin, that while we have done a
good job of protecting the turtles for the
weeks they spend on land (as egg-laying
females, as eggs and as hatchlings), we have
neglected
the years spend in the ocean. “The
threat is from commercial fishing,” says Griffin.
Trawlers
(which drag large nets through the
water and along the ocean floor) and longline
fishers (which
can deploy thousands of hooks
on lines that can stretch for miles) take a heavy
toll on
course, like every other
environmental issue today, this is playing out
against the background of
global warming and
human interference with natural ecosystems. The
narrow strips of beach on
which the turtles
lay their eggs are being squeezed on one side by
development and on the other
by the threat of
rising sea levels as the oceans warm. Ultimately
we must get a handle on those
issues as well,
or a creature that outlived the dinosaurs (恐龙)
will meet its end at the hands of
humans,
leaving our descendants to wonder how creature so
ugly could have won so much
affection.注意:此部分试题请在答题卡2上作答。

(6)Passage Two
Questions 57 to 61 are based on the following are
few more
sobering online activities than
entering data into college-tuition calculators and
gasping as the
Web spits back a six-figure
sum. But economists say families about to go into
debt to fund four
years of partying, as well
as studying, can console themselves with the
knowledge that college is
an investment that,
unlike many bank stocks, should yield huge
dividends.A 2008 study by two
Harvard
economists notes that the “labor-market premium to
skill”—or the amount college
graduates earned
that’s greater than what high-school graduate
earned—decreased for much of the
20th century,
but has come back with a vengeance (报复性地) since
the 1980s. In 2005, The
typical full-time
year-round U.S. worker with a four-year college
degree earned $$50,900, 62%
more than the
$$31,500 earned by a worker with only a high-school
’s no question
that going to college is a
smart economic choice. But a look at the strange
variations in tuition
reveals that the choice
about which college to attend doesn’t come down
merely to dollars and
cents. Does going to
Columbia University (tuition, room and board
$$49,260 in 2007-08) yield a
40% greater return
than attending the University of Colorado at
Boulder as an out-of-state student
($$35,542)?
Probably not. Does being an out-of-state student
at the University of Colorado at
Boulder yield
twice the amount of income as being an in-state
student ($$17,380) there? Not
, in this
consumerist age, most buyers aren’t evaluating
college as an investment, but
rather as a
consumer product—like a car or clothes or a house.
And with such purchases, price is
only one of
many crucial factors to with automobiles,
consumers in today’s college
marketplace have
vast choices, and people search for the one that
gives them the most comfort and
satisfaction
in line with their budgets. This accounts for the
willingness of people to pay more for
different types of experiences (such as
attending a private liberal-arts college or going
to an
out-of-state public school that has a
great marine-biology program). And just as two
auto
purchasers might spend an equal amount of
money on very different cars, college students
(or,
more accurately, their parents) often
show a willingness to pay essentially the same
price for
vastly different products. So which
is it? Is college an investment product like a
stock or a
consumer product like a car? In
keeping with the automotive world’s hottest
consumer trend,
maybe it’s best to
characterize it as a hybrid (混合动力汽车); an expensive
consumer product
that, over time, will pay
rich dividends.注意:此部分试题请在答题卡2上作答。

In

As for whether it
sounds good I think the name is not important, it
is important to remember your
name better, so
at least the names of other people have to bear in
mind when you will not be very
difficult, is
not it? Remember the name of a good, sometimes
better than a nice title is even more
