Question

【题目】Who do you think are the most important people in your life, your parents, your sisters or brothers, or your friends? I think your answer must be “my friends”. Some teenagers often say their parents don't understand them. In large families, brothers and sisters often argue with each other. So most of us think friends are the most important people in our lives.

It is very important for teenagers to have one good friend or a group of friends. As for the reason, it may be because we can discuss some private things with friends. Of course we won't tell these things to our family members.

However, parents often try to choose friends for us. They may even stop us from meeting some of our best friends. In fact, they do it just because they care for us too much. But they often neglect our real feelings. How can you solve this problem? I think the best way is to find a right time to talk with parents about our real feelings.

【解析】

谁是你生命中最重要的人？很多人都会回答朋友，朋友在我们的生活中的确很重要。有时候父母对我们交的朋友感到不满意，我们应该和父母多交流、多沟通。

【1】细节理解题。由第一段So most of us think friends are the most important people in our lives.

可知，大多数青少年都觉得“朋友”在他们的生活中最重要。故答案为A。

【2】细节理解题。结合第二段的第一、二句It is very important for teenagers to have one good friend or a group of friends. As for the reason, it may be because we can discuss some private things with friends.可知，青少年拥有朋友很重要，因为他们可以和朋友讨论一些隐私问题。故答案为D。

【3】词义猜测题。结合画线词的后一句“Of course we won't tell these things to our family members.”可推断，private things意为“私事”。public“公共的”；personal“私人的”；difficult“困难的”；interesting“有趣的”。只有选项B符合文义。

【4】细节理解题。本题是问父母甚至阻止我们去见朋友的原因是什么。结合第三段第三句“In fact, they do it just because they care for us too much.”可知，父母那样做是因为他们太关心我们了。故答案为C。

【5】推理判断题。结合文章最后一段最后两句“How can you solve this problem? I think the best way is to find a right time to talk with parents about our real feelings.”可知，解决这个问题的最好办法是找个合适的时间和你的父母谈谈你的真实感受。选项中只有B项符合文义。

这篇短文给我们讲述的是很多人都觉得朋友是我们生活中最重要的人，的确如此。但如果父母对我们交的朋友不满意的话，他们也只是关心我们，我们应和父母多沟通、交流。文章内容与学生们的日常生活息息相关，因此比较容易理解。后面的题目设置有细节理解题、推理判断题和词义猜测题。细节题考查我们对文章某处事实的理解，题目的答案常可以在原文直接找到，例如第1小题，题目问的是谁是最重要的，这个问题在文章第一段中讨论的，根据第一段的内容，尤其是最后一句话我们就可以知道应选A。第3小题是一个猜测词义的问题，这时我们必须把单词放在语境中，从上下文的线索中进行猜测。根据下句话Of course we won't tell these things to our family members.我们不会把这些事情告诉给家里人，因此这里应指的是“个人的私事”，personal的意思是“个人的，私人的”，符合文意，故选B。
