Rafi and Dvora Meitiv were walking home from the park recently in Silver Spring,Maryland,when they were suddenly stopped by the police.
The Montgomery County Police gave the kids a stern(嚴厲的) warning about walking alone,put them in the car and drove them home.
“I looked out and saw the police and thought,‘Oh my God,what did they do?’”said their father Alexander Meitiv.“I asked‘did they do something’,they said‘no,’I said,‘OK,I’ll take my children,’then I realized they wouldn’t let me take them.”
Maryland Child Protective Services then accused the Meitivs of neglect(疏忽),saying unless they committed a safety plan to the police,the kids would have to go into foster homes(寄養家庭).In Silver Spring,leaving anyone under 18 unsupervised(無人看管的) is considered as neglect.
Before the police found them,Rafi and Dvora,ages 10 and 6,said they used to run around outside and cross the street by themselves all the time.Their parents,Alexander and Danielle Meitiv,said they trust their kids and want to give them the freedom to make mistakes,away from the parental safety net.
It’s an approach known these days as “free range parenting,”which to the Meitivs is an age-old tradition.
“I’m just parenting the way I was parented and the way that almost every adult I know was parented,”Danielle said.
In the time of helicopter parenting,many people wouldn’t dream of letting their kids leave their sight unattended.Plenty of parents are concerned about all the dangers of modern life.But there is also a growing movement of parents who refuse to hover(盤旋).
But in Maryland,the Meitivs are still under investigation.Even some supporters of free range parenting say there should be limits.“A 10-year-old should never be in charge of a 6-year-old,”said Susan Klein-Shilling.
But the Meitivs say they are the best ones to judge if their kids are ready,not the government.
“Honestly I think that raising independent children and responsible children and giving them the freedom that I enjoyed is a risk worth taking,”Danielle Meitiv said.“In the end it’s our decision as parents.”
“It is important for our development,”Rafi added.“I love it and it’s just a part of our life.”
【語篇導讀】本文是議論文。文章圍繞孩子們是否應當被允許獨自漫步闡述了幾種不同的觀點。

解析:細節理解題。由第二段中的“gave the kids a stern(嚴厲的) warning about walking alone”及第四段中的“unless they committed a safety plan to the police,the kids would have to go into foster homes(寄養家庭)”可知,警方之所以不讓他們帶走孩子是因為警方認為他們忽略了孩子們的安全,不是合格的父母。

答案與解析:
【語篇導讀】作者的妻子沉溺于網購,常花冤枉錢,且不聽作者的提醒和勸誡。可見,網購給人們的生活帶來便利的同時,也帶來了一些問題。
1.It 解析:考查代詞及固定句式。It seems that...“似乎……”,為固定句式。
2.had shopped 解析:考查過去完成時。It was the first/second...time that sb.had done sth.“是某人第一次/二次……做某事”,因表示到過去某一時間為止已經是第幾次做某事,所以使用過去完成時。
3.to think 解析:考查非謂語動詞。remind sb.to do sth.表示“提醒某人做某事”。
4.approaching 解析:考查動詞-ing形式。此處為“with+賓語+賓補”的復合結構,因賓語the New Year與賓補所用動詞approach構成主謂關系,所以應使用動詞-ing形式作賓補,故填approaching。
5.Besides 解析:考查副詞。此處是作者的妻子在陳述自己網購的又一個理由,所以應填入Besides。注意:此處并無轉折關系,不能填However。
6.the 解析:考查冠詞。此處表示“網購的過程”,為特指,因此填定冠詞the。
7.with 解析:考查介詞。with the development of“隨著……的發展”,為固定短語。
8.who 解析:考查定語從句。該句的先行詞為Those,此處是指人的不定代詞,且關系詞在從句中作主語,所以填who。
9.problems 解析:考查名詞的數。根據空格前的“a series of”及下文中的“One of them is”可知,此處名詞應使用復數形式。
10.easily 解析:考查副詞。因修飾謂語動詞作狀語,所以填入副詞。
