Firstly, families are smaller, and there are far more only children.lt is common for both parents to work outside the home and there just isn't time to bring up a large family, or that no one could possibly afford to have more than one child. As a result , today's boys and girls spend much of their time alone. Another main change is that youngsters today tend to spend a lot of their free time at home, inside.This is due to the fact that parents worry tar more than they used to about real or imagined dangers, so they wouldn't drcam of letting their children play outside by themselves.Finally, the kind of toys children have and the way they play is totally different.Computer and video games have taken the place of the board games and more interesting activities of my childhood.The funny thing is that so many ways of playing games are called ''interactive11, because children can work together or communicate with others in games or the information can be passed between the computer and the person who uses it.It seems like they have friends to play with.But the fact that you can play electronic games on your own at home increases (提高)the sense of loneliness felt by many young people today.Do these changes mean that children today have a less relaxing childhood than I had? I personally believe that they do, but perhaps every generation feels exactly the same. 31. What is the purpose (目 的)of the question given in the first paragraph?A. To show who the passage is written for.B. To gather people's opinions on childhood.C. To get peoples attention and lead in the topic.班级:姓名:D. To compare the childhood lives of two generations.32. What does the underlined word "interactive" mean in Paragraph 4 ?A. able to affect (影响)each otherB. able to help each otherC. able to learn from each otherD. able to care for each otherWhat does the fourth paragraph mainly talk about ?A.Young people today shouldn't play electronic games.B.Computer and video games have replaced the board games.C. Board games are much more interesting than computer games.D. Some games that young people play today aren't really good.四、阅读短文,根据短文内容回答以下问题。(共10分,每题2分)The Huge BaobabOne of the most amazing trees in the world is known as the baobab. This kind of tree mainly grows in South Africa and Australia.Sometimes, it is hard to tell what the name of a tree is because they look like each other. But this is not a problem with the baobab. Its appearance is quite different, so people can't mistake it for another tree. The baobab is very wide at the base, so people often take shelter under it. One Australian baobab was so large that people were able to turn part of the tree into a small room. Prisoners were kept inside the tree room as a resting place when they were transported to the city. The tree itself was so strong and wide that it could hold a large group of people. The strongest tree in the world is over 1,835 years old now.第5页) 教育ID: People also call it the "giving tree". The tree's fruit is very delicious and is a tasty treat that is eaten in many African countries. The fruits have also been found to be very healthy. They are full of vitamins and minerals. People make porridge and favor soft drinks from the fruit. Since the tree grows in dry environments, it has to store water. The tree soaks in water when it is wet. During dry seasons, the baobab tree can use the stored water. Some baobabs can store thousands of gallons of water. Of course, the baobabs also provide the people of sunny South Africa with some shade during hot African days.Sadly, in recent years, the baobab trees are dying because of climate change. Scientists are trying hard to take action to protect them.33 . Where does the baobab tree mainly grow?35 . Why can't people mistake the baobab for another tree?36 .
