暑假滑坡,如何帮孩子“刹住车”?


Summer break is a happy time for many students. However, a report shows that about half of students may feel worse during the summer months. This problem is called the “summer slide.”

Why does this happen? During the school year, students have a clear routine. But in summer, without this routine, students may spend too much time on screens. They may also feel bored and have poor sleep habits. All these can affect their mental health.
What can parents do? Experts say parents can make a simple plan for the summer. Family activities are also a good idea. These can help children stay active and healthy. Parents should also talk with their children. Dan McMinn, a director of a learning center, said that it is important for parents to ask children about their plans. Even simple questions can start a good conversation.
What can students do? Students can find summer jobs or do volunteer work. These activities can help them stay busy, learn new skills, and make good use of their time. By doing so, students can enjoy their summer break and keep the “summer slide” away.

1.1.The report shows that during summer, about 50% of students ______.

A do not feel so good

B often travel around

C do much more reading

D sleep a lot longer

解析:选A。A 细节理解题。根据第一段“a report shows that about half of students may feel worse during the summer months”,约半数学生在暑假期间感觉更不好。B项文中完全没有提到学生外出旅行相关内容,属于无中生有;C项全文未提及暑假多阅读,无原文依据;D项文中只说学生睡眠习惯差,并没有说睡眠时间更长,与原文信息不符。故选A。

2.2.What is the main cause of the “summer slide”?

A Too much screen time.

B Lack of a daily routine.

C Poor sleep at night.

D Feeling bored at home.

解析:选B。B 推理判断题。第二段以设问“Why does this happen?”引出原因,随即回答“during the school year, students have a clear routine. But in summer, without this routine...”,明确说明日常规律的缺失是导致summer slide的根本原因。A、C、D三项都是缺少规律后衍生出的次要表现,并非造成问题的根源;原文逻辑是无作息→长时间看屏幕、无聊、睡眠差,三者均为结果,不是主要诱因,因此全部排除。故选B。

3.3.What does Dan McMinn think about family plans in summer?

A They take too much time.

B They help start good talks.

C They should be very detailed.

D They are only for young kids.

解析:选B。B 观点态度题。 第三段引用Dan McMinn的话“Even simple questions can start a good conversation”,他认为关于计划的提问能开启良好的亲子沟通。A项文章只建议制定简单计划,从未提到计划会耗费大量时间,无中生有;C项专家建议 simple plan(简单计划),和 very detailed(十分详尽)表意相反;D项文中没有区分年龄,没说该计划只适合低龄儿童,属于主观臆断。故选B。

4.4.Students are recommended to ______ in summer.

A join volunteer work

B stay at home alone

C set up family plans

D take a long vacation

解析:选A。A 细节理解题。第四段明确指出“Students can find summer jobs or do volunteer work”。B项“stay at home alone”与“stay busy, learn new skills”相反(颠倒是非)。C项“set up family plans”是给家长的建议(张冠李戴)。D项“take a long vacation”曲解了文章通过活动保持积极状态的建议(曲解文意)。故选A。

5.5.What is the best title for the passage?

A Summer Break: A Time to Worry

B How to Find Summer Jobs

C Summer Slide: A Problem to Solve

D Helping Kids Through Summer

解析:选C。C 主旨大意题。全文以提出问题(summer slide)→分析原因(lack of routine)→给出建议(家长plan/talk + 学生jobs/volunteer)为主线。C项“Summer Slide: A Problem to Solve”同时概括了问题与分析解决,最为完整。A项“Summer Break: A Time to Worry”过度强调负面情绪,文章更侧重解决问题而非制造焦虑(过度推理)。B项“How to Find Summer Jobs”仅覆盖第四段(以偏概全)。D项“Helping Kids Through Summer”只从家长角度切入,遗漏了学生自身的主动参与(以偏概全)。故选C。
