Question

Bad Hobbies

It’s easier to walk downhill than to climb uphill. So it is easier to fall into bad habits than into good ones. Bad habits do not form suddenly. They form little by little, so you don’t realize（意识到） their danger. Schoolboys and schoolgirls first pick up little bad habits at school or on the streets. When they cannot do their homework, they copy from their classmates. If they see bigger boys or girls smoking, they also want to learn to smoke. If they see their friends gambling(赌博)，they want to gamble. When they get older, the habits become stronger and stronger. Then they can no longer give them up. From copying, they learn to steal; from gambling, they learn to cheat. At last, no one believes in them. It is very important to stop bad habits as soon as they begin!

My son is eight years old. He is now in Grade Three. When he was five, he started school. Every evening we have homework battles. Three afternoons a week he has activities after school. By the time we get home, homework is the last thing he feels like doing. The other two afternoon, he gets home early and we argue(争论) about whether he should do his homework straight away, or if he should have some time to rest and play first. When my son finally sits down to do his homework, he seems to want me there helping him all the time. I do want to help him, but I am sure that he can do it by himself. In fact, I often end up telling him the answers to most of his homework. He has fallen into the habit of depending on me to do this. He never wants to use his own brain.

【解析】

试题分析：走下坡比上坡更容易。所以养成坏习惯比有好习惯更容易。坏习惯不是突然形成的。他们是一点一点形成的，所以你没有意识到他们的危险。男生和女生第一次接触到坏习惯是在学校或在街道上。作者又通过自己孩子的实例来说明这一点。

1.Bad habits do not form suddenly. They form little by little, so you don’t realize（意识到） their danger. 句意：坏习惯不是突然形成的。他们是一点一点形成的，所以你没有意识到他们的危险。故选B

2.Schoolboys and schoolgirls first pick up little bad habits at school or on the streets. 句意：男生和女生第一次接触到坏习惯在学校或在街道上。明确答案为第二项。故选B

3.from gambling, they learn to cheat. 句意：通过赌博，他们学会了欺骗。结合选项第三项正确。故选C

4.He has fallen into the habit of depending on me to do this. 句意：他现在已经习惯于依靠我来告诉他们答案了。从另一个角度讲是他依靠父母太多。故选C

5.
