DEAR AMY: Last year I got a full-time job as a baby-sitter for a wonderful family with two amazing kids. They have come to treat me as one of their own. But my boyfriend and I are attempting to save much more money for the life we want to build, including marriage, a house and kids. Much as I love my “babies,” I’m looking forward to beginning a challenging career in a big company. Should I tell the family that I am looking for a new job? I don’t want to find one that requires me to begin work immediately, leaving them without child care, but I also don’t want them to assume that I’m leaving right away.
Up-in-the-Air Au Pair
DEAR AU PAIR: Whatever your arrangement, it is reasonable for them to expect you to be honest and to keep them in the loop. They see that you are making changes in your life, and surely they will also understand your desire to advance in a career. Tell them frankly and they should be happy to employ you as long as you are available.
Amy
DEAR AMY: I am a freshman in a high school. Last summer my best friend was diagnosed with skin cancer. It isn’t very serious, but she seems to be becoming more and more depressed. How can I help her be happy again?
Best Friend
DEAR FRIEND: Your best role is to prop up and encourage your friend when she seems down, and to be supportive and kind to her. You're doing a great job with that, and your friend is lucky to have you in her life.
Amy
1.What is Au Pair’s problem according to the first paragraph?
A. She has no idea whether to tell the family her plan or not.
B. She has no idea whether the family will hate her or not.
C. She has no idea where to find a new good job.
D. She has no idea how to save more money.
2.From the underlined phrase“ to keep them in the loop”, we can infer that Amy advises Au Pair_____.
A. to keep it secret to the family
B. to cheat the family for the time being
C. to tell her true impression of the family
D. to let the family know what’s going on
3. In which column of a newspaper can we probably find the passage?
A. Jobs B. culture C. Life D. Entertainment
1.A
2.D
3.C
【解析】
試題分析:本文取材于報紙的生活解惑答疑欄目。文章屬于記敘文。文章講述了兩個求助者的問題。
1.考查細節(jié)理解。根據文章第一段中的Much as I love my “babies,” I’m looking forward to beginning a challenging career in a big company. Should I tell the family that I am looking for a new job?可知,Au Pair是問題是:她應該不應該告訴那個家庭她在找新的工作。所以A正確。
2.考查推測短語的含義。根據it is reasonable for them to expect you to be honest可知,他們期望你是誠實的。又根據并列連詞and可知,前后內容一致,她應該讓那個家庭知道要發(fā)生的事情。所以選D。
3.考查推理判斷。根據文章內容可知,這是生活答疑欄目,所以選C。Jobs找工作欄目; culture文化欄目; Entertainment娛樂欄目。這三項都不符合文意。
考點:考查記敘文的閱讀。

Dear Amy,
I glad to discuss your present situation with you. People often miss parents for the first time they left home. However, most people have to leave home for higher educations or employment. You cannot live with our parents forever. You should realize that the separation will help improve your person ability. You need to make new friends and share ideas with whomever has something in common with you. Maybe you will still miss your parents, and your new friends will bring joy to your new life. Also I suggest you will enjoy yourself by taking the active part in different activities. You will get much pleasure.
Faithfully yours
Sharon
