Question

【題目】

Bicycles, roller skates and skateboards are dangerous. And don’t get me started on walking. But I’m glad I didn’t spend my childhood trapped indoors to protect me from every bump and bruise. “That which does not kill us makes us stronger.” 【1】 And now technology has become the new field for the age-old battle between adults and their freedom-craving kids.

Locked indoors, unable to get on their bicycles and hang out with their friends, teens have turned to social media and their mobile phones to socialize with their peers. What they do online often mirrors what they might otherwise do if their mobility weren’t so heavily limited in the age of helicopter parenting. Social media and smartphones have become so popular in recent years. 【2】

As teens have moved online, parents have projected their fears onto the Internet, imagining all the potential dangers that youth might face – from violent strangers to cruel peers to pictures or words that could haunt them on Google for the rest of their lives.

Rather than helping teens develop strategies for negotiating public life and the potential risks of interacting with others, fearful parents have focused on tracking, monitoring and blocking. 【3】 “Protecting” kids may feel like the right thing to do, but it gradually weakens the learning that teens need to do as they come of age in a technology-soaked world.

The key to helping youth navigate contemporary digital life isn’t more restrictions. It’s freedom-plus communication. What makes the digital street safe is when teens and adults collectively agree to open their eyes and pay attention, communicate and negotiate difficult situations together. Teens need the freedom to wander the digital street, but they also need to know that caring adults are behind them and supporting them wherever they go. The first step is to turn off the tracking software. 【4】

【解析】

本文是一篇說明文。介紹了父母該如何打贏與孩子之間在科技領域的戰(zhàn)爭。

【1】根據(jù)空前But I’m glad I didn’t spend my childhood trapped indoors to protect me from every bump and bruise. “That which does not kill us makes us stronger.”（ 但我很高興我沒有把我的童年困在室內(nèi)來保護我免受每一次碰撞和擦傷�！澳切�殺不死我們的，只會讓我們更強大�！保┘翱蘸�And now technology has become the new field for the age-old battle between adults and their freedom-craving kids. （如今，科技成為了成年人和渴望自由的孩子之間由來已久的戰(zhàn)爭的新戰(zhàn)場）可知，此處需要一個承上啟下的過渡句，既要與上文形成轉(zhuǎn)折關系，又要引出下文科技已經(jīng)成為成年人和孩子們之間斗爭的新領域這一話題。由此可知，E項“但是，當青少年把這一理念付諸實踐時，父母卻無能為力”符合語境。故選E。

【2】根據(jù)空前Social media and smartphones have become so popular in recent years.（近年來，社交媒體和智能手機變得非常流行）可知，此處承接上文，講的是青少年使用社交媒體和智能手機上網(wǎng)的原因。由此可知，D項“青少年想要探索自己身份和周圍世界的自由，所以他們會上網(wǎng)”符合語境。故選D。

【3】根據(jù)空前Rather than helping teens develop strategies for negotiating public life and the potential risks of interacting with others, fearful parents have focused on tracking, monitoring and blocking.（恐懼的父母并沒有幫助青少年制定策略來應對公共生活和與他人互動的潛在風險，而是專注于跟蹤、監(jiān)控和阻止）可知，此處承接上文，講的是父母的這些做法對青少年的影響。由此可知，AB項“這些都不能幫助青少年發(fā)展他們需要的技能來管理復雜的社會情況，評估風險，并在他們遇到麻煩時尋求幫助”符合語境。故選AB。

【4】根據(jù)空前The first step is to turn off the tracking software.（第一步是關閉跟蹤軟件）可知，此處承接這一話題，說的是父母接下來應該采取的做法。由此可知，A項“然后問問你的孩子，當他們上網(wǎng)時他們在做什么，為什么這對他們?nèi)绱酥匾�”符合語境。故選A。

在六選四的解題過程中，選項中的某一關鍵詞上下文中的關鍵詞的對應關系往往是重要線索，例如本篇第4空，根據(jù)空前The first step is to turn off the tracking software.（第一步是關閉跟蹤軟件）可知，此處承接這一話題，說的是父母接下來應該采取的做法。A項中的Then與空前一句中的The first step正好相對應，由此可知，A項“然后問問你的孩子，當他們上網(wǎng)時他們在做什么，為什么這對他們?nèi)绱酥匾�”符合語境。
