解析

小题1:C 原因题。询问母亲开始自己的生意的原因，文章中给出的原因是She said she didn’t want to stay at home and work as a houwife: “It’s a waste of life.”说明母亲是不想要浪费生命，故选择C小题1:C 原因题。询问母女两争吵的原因，文章第二段提到We quarreled becau she rarely showed up at parents’ meetings.说明他们争吵的原因是因为母亲没有出席家长会，故选择C小题1:D 主旨大意题。文章要告诉我们的最重要的道理是No mom is perfect, but she is the one who really cares about her kid.即没有完美的母亲但是她们都爱自己的孩子，选择D小题1:C 细节反选题。文章中提到作者在生物课上尖叫的原因时这样说my life was like a wheel spinning (旋转) faster and faster and that was the reason for what had happened to me说明原因并非是作者害怕蝴蝶而是因为压力太大。故选择C小题1:A 主旨大意题。文章主要的内容由最后一句话可以总结，即No mom is perfect, but she is the one who really cares about her kid.故选择A

考点

据考高分专家说，试题“She is quiet, soft-s.....”主要考查你对 [日常生活类阅读 ]考点的理解。 日常生活类阅读

日常生活类阅读的概念：

日常生活这一话题主要涉及人们衣食住行等方面的活动。这一话题的选材主要针对人们日常的工作，生活以及学习情况。做这一类题时，最主要的是要把握好人物的活动内容，时间和地点。

日常生活类阅读题答题技巧：

【题型说明】该类文章内容涉及到人们的言谈举止、生活习惯、饮食起居、服饰仪表、恋爱婚姻、消遣娱乐、节日起源、家庭生活等。文章篇幅短小，追根溯源，探索各项风俗的历史渊源，内容有趣。命题也以送分题为主，如事实细节题、语义转换题、词义猜测题和简单推理判断题等。虽然这类文章读起来感觉轻松，试题做起来比较顺手，但绝不能掉以轻心。因为稍不留神，就会丢分。 【备考提醒】为了保证较高准确率，建议同学们做好以下几点： 1、保持正常的考试心态。笔者在教学中发现，越是容易的试题，同学们越是容易失分。为什么呢？因为在这种情况下，同学们极易产生麻痹思想，认为题目好做，就不引起高度重视，于是思维不发散、不周密。而命题人就是利用同学们的这一弱点，设计陷阱题。所以，无论试题难易与否，我们都要保持正常的考试心态。试题容易，不欣喜；试题难，不悲观。 2、根据前面讲到的方法，认认真真、细细心心做好事实细节题。 3、做好语义转换题。这类题是根据英语中一词多义和某些词语在文中能表达一定的修辞意义的原则而设计的。要求同学们解释某生词的含义，确定多义词或短语在文中的意思，确认文中的某个代词所指代的对象，或者对英语中特有的表达、格言、谚语进行解释。这种题要求同学们一定要根据上下文猜测词义或理解句子，切不可望文生义。 4、做好简单推理判断题。简单推理判断题要以表面文字为前提，以具体事实为依据进行推理，做出判断。这种推理方式比较直接，只要弄清事实，即可结合常识推断出合理的结论。
