阅读解析：
1. C。主旨大意题，本文写的是在美国很多父母开始通过短信方式唠叨或催促孩子。D选项错在how。文章并没有讲这种新的方式如何兴起的。
2. D。段落大意题，根据文章第1、2小段即可知答案：美国父母不但重视他们孩子的学习，
还重视他们孩子其他方面的素质。
3. D。这里引用Reginald Black的话是用来体现上一段“There are changes in how parents nag and in what they nag about and in the frequencyof their nagging. ”，所以D正确。
4. A。推断题，根据文章倒数第二段“She thinks a good way to do it is to mix friendliness with nagging. ”即可知答案。
5. D。线索为下一句“These ice-breakers will help you get through the embarrassing (尴尬的) moments: ” 。
6. G。线索为后面的“common ground”。
7. A。线索为“…the safest bet is to ask about his or her last holiday. ”。
8. B。线索为“conversations”。
9. E。线索为“like to use weekends to relax and have fun” 。
10. C。由第二段第二句“Indeed, it may not be a problem at all, according to some researchers, just the way the teenage body works.”可知，孩子习惯晚睡晚起的主要原因在于他们的生物钟。
11. D。由第三段最后一句话“They’ve found that starting after 8 am makes students more likely to turn up on time to school, do better work, and generally feel happier.”可知D项正确。
12. B。 由第八段第一句“She found teens have a higher hormone level late at night than either adults or young children.”可知teenagers产生的荷尔蒙最多。
13. C。由第四、五段可知，目前美国大部分学校实行的上课时间被认为导致了孩子睡眠不足，故A、B正确；最后一段提到了Helen Emsellem在她的著作“Snooze … or Lose”中提出了睡眠不足对青少年产生的不良影响，故D正确；文中第四段提到了after school activities like sports 是学校上课早的原因之一，文中又提到了上课早导致孩子睡眠不足，故C项不对，为本题答案。
15. B。细节理解题。从I thought she would scream and cry.的意思可以得出答案。
16. C。推断题。从文中倒数第四和第三段可以看出，作者以前是属于比较悲观的人。
17. C。主旨大意题。文章主题是以一个故事说明我们应用乐观的态度来面对生活中突发的问题。
听力原文：
W: Listening comprehension
Topic four: School life
W: I need to borrow some books from the library, but I don’t know its opening hours.
M: I think I can remember it. It is open from 8 a.m. to 10 p.m. on weekdays, and from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Saturdays. It’s closed on Sundays.
M: I have to go to class and then to the library to prepare for my exam, but if I could, I’d go with you to the movies.
W: That’s too bad. I wish you could come along.
W: Danny, it’s almost vacation time. Have you found a summer job yet?
M: I think I can work at the summer training camp where I worked last summer. But camp jobs don’t pay much. What about you?
W: I can get a job at the restaurant near my home. A friend of mine was a waitress there last summer. The pay wasn’t good, but she got lots of tips.
M: My sister did that one summer.
W: But what I actually want is a job outside. After sitting in college classes all winter, I’d like a job in the open air.
M: High school kids earn a lot of money every summer by cutting grass. My brother is only fourteen, but he gets five dollars every time he cuts somebody’s grass. It only takes him an hour.
W: That’s pretty good. I used to cut grass when I was in high school. But now I’m thinking of working on a farm or something like that.
M: It will be a good experience. You can learn a lot.
