解析

试题分析：这篇短文的中心意思是，作者小的时候无论做什么事，父母都会有意见，直到作者念了大学也不明白为什么父母对自己要求这么严格。等到有一天作者也做了父母，对待自己的孩子却是和当年父母对待自己一样，作者这才明白父母的良苦用心。
小题1:句意：我喜欢穿鲜红色的衣服，但是他们说这个颜色太刺眼了。由wear 这个词我们可以判断此空应填“衣服”。
小题2:句意：我喜欢听摇滚音乐，但是他们说那太吵了。noisy 形容词，吵闹的。摇滚音乐的特点就是声音大，有活力，根据首字母n 可知填noisy 。
小题3:句意：我讨厌吃蔬菜，但是他们说吃蔬菜对健康有好处。根据句意可猜出填health，名词，健康。
小题4:句意：我的父母总是告诉我我做的事情是坏的。由上下文可知，无论我做什么，父母总是有意见，觉得我做的事情不对，故填bad。
小题5:句意：我的生活并不像我朋友的生活那样多姿多彩。colorful 多姿多彩的，是一个形容词。
小题6:句意：我大学学的心理学，并取得了很好的成绩，但是我仍然不明白为什么我的父母如此的严格。but 表示转折，虽然我学的心理学，但是我不明白父母是什么心理的，对我要求严格。
小题7:句意：然后我结婚了，有了两个孩子。children 孩子，复数。
小题8:句意：我总是对孩子们说，不要老是打电话，把精力用在学习上，利用你的业余时间去读书。free time 业余时间。
小题9:句意：我开始理解了我的父母。当作者自己为人父母时，他终于理解了自己的父母。
小题10:句意：年轻人，在所以你的父母给你的建议背后，他们真正想说的是，我们在乎你，我们爱你。advice 建议，是一个不可数名词。

举一反三

Do you like drinking Coke? As a symbol of American culture, Coca-Cola is liked by many people, especially young people around the world．But from now on, perhaps it will be difficult for students in the US to get it in school. A new agreement (协议) will stop almost all sales of high-sugar fizzy (起泡的) drinks in American schools.
The agreement allows only juice, milk and water to be sold in primary schools and middle schools. It will help 35 million young people choose healthy drinks.

Childhood obesity (肥胖) has become a big problem in America. A report shows that obesity has risen so fast in teenagers in the past 25 years. The main reason is that kids eat too much junk food and drink too much Coke.
The UK has already used similar ways to fight obesity. A recent study shows that people in the UK are much healthier than those in the US. However, it"s better late than never. Now American schools are trying to lead students to healthier lives.

We live in a noisy world. Young and old alike are troubled by sounds over which we may have little or no control: car and house alarms, motorcycles, loudspeakers, even movie previews.
We attend rock concerts, weddings, parties and sports events at which the music is so loud that you can hardly hear the person sitting next to you. At home, televisions, stereos and computer games are often turned up so loud that listeners cannot hear a doorbell or a telephone.
As if environmental noise were not enough, now we surround children with noisy toys and personal listening devices that can permanently damage their hearing. A series of studies conducted in 2002 indicated that even moderate (缓和的) background noise can interfere with how they learn language. In fact, children in classrooms on the noisy side of a school had lower reading scores than those whose classes were on the quiet side.
Noise-induced (噪音诱发的) hearing loss can come about in two ways: from a brief exposure to a very loud noise or from consistent exposure to moderate-level noise. Thus, there is much concern about the lasting effects of MP3 players that are turned up loud enough to block out surrounding sound, like street noise. An MP3 player at maximum volume produces about 105 decibels（分贝）— 100 times as severe as 85 decibels, where hearing damage begins.
So, before buying noise-making toys, parents would do well to listen to how loud they are. If the item comes with a volume control, monitor its use to make sure it is kept near the lowest level. Consider returning gifts that make loud noises, or disable the noise-making function. Children who play computer games and stereo equipment should be warned to keep the volume down. Most iPads have a control that allows parents to set a maximum volume.
Avoid taking children to loud action movies. If you do go and the sound seems deafening, ask the management to turn down the volume or insist on your money back.
The League for the Hard of Hearing urges parents to encourage participation in quiet activities, like reading, doing puzzles, making things with construction toys, playing educational computer games, drawing and painting, and visiting libraries and museums.
