　　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(严厉的) 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(寄养家庭).In Silver Spring,leaving anyone under 18 unsupervised(无人看管的) 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(盘旋).

　　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.”

　　【语篇导读】本文是议论文。文章围绕孩子们是否应当被允许独自漫步阐述了几种不同的观点。

　　答案与解析:

　　【语篇导读】作者的妻子沉溺于网购,常花冤枉钱,且不听作者的提醒和劝诫。可见,网购给人们的生活带来便利的同时,也带来了一些问题。

　　1.It　解析:考查代词及固定句式。It seems that...“似乎……”,为固定句式。

　　2.had shopped　解析:考查过去完成时。It was the first/second...time that sb had done sth “是某人第一次/二次……做某事”,因表示到过去某一时间为止已经是第几次做某事,所以使用过去完成时。

　　3.to think　解析:考查非谓语动词。remind sb to do sth 表示“提醒某人做某事”。

　　4.approaching　解析:考查动词-ing形式。此处为“with+宾语+宾补”的复合结构,因宾语the New Year与宾补所用动词approach构成主谓关系,所以应使用动词-ing形式做宾补,故填approaching。

　　5.Besides　解析:考查副词。此处是作者的妻子在陈述自己网购的又一个理由,所以应填入Besides。注意:此处并无转折关系,不能填However。

　　6.the　解析:考查冠词。此处表示“网购的过程”,为特指,因此填定冠词the。

　　7.with　解析:考查介词。with the development of“随着……的发展”,为固定短语。

　　8.who　解析:考查定语从句。该句的先行词为Those,此处是指人的不定代词,且关系词在从句中作主语,所以填who。

　　9.problems　解析:考查名词的数。根据空格前的“a series of”及下文中的“One of them is”可知,此处名词应使用复数形式。

　　10.easily　解析:考查副词。因修饰谓语动词作状语,所以填入副词。
