Growing Pains was on television form 1985 to 1992 in America. This was a total of sevenyears, and it told over one hundred and sixty different stories.

The program was about a family of six who lived on Long Island, near New York City.【1】The father was a doctor and the mother was a writer at a newspaper. They had four children. The oldest child was Mike.【2】He did really well in the program.

From the start of Growing Pains, Mike was always getting into trouble. He was caught by the police for driving a car too fast. He promised his parents that he would never ride a motorcycle, but then he hurt himself riding one. However, in the last year of the program, he helped a young boy who had no home, and asked his family to help him care for and support the boy, Though his parents were upset because he often broke his promises, the way he cared for this boy made them proud to have him as their son.【3】He sometimes did wrong things, but also cared for others and was a warm person.

Perhaps another reason why the program was popular in America is that most of its stories were about normal family problems.【4】Like Mike's parents, many parents who work often worry about their children and have difficult decisions to make about them. Even now the show still appears on American TV.

A.Many of the people watching the program had the same problems

B.As teenagers grow, it is normal for them to become confused with the changing world inside and outside of them

C.He was the main reason for the program's huge success

D.These stories are good examples of the two sides of Mike's nature

E.The parents were a working couple

Answer 1

【答案】

【1】E

【2】C

【3】D

【4】A

【解析】

文章大意：本文講述了《成長的煩惱》這部電視劇的情況，包括播出時間，主要內容以及給美國家庭帶來的影響等等。

【1】通過下一句The father was a doctor and the mother was a writer at a newspaper.父親是一名醫(yī)生，母親是報社的作家，可知這里填The parents were a working couple.父母是一對工作的夫婦。這樣就跟下文很好的銜接上了。故選E。

【2】根據(jù)空前后的句子The oldest child was Mike.和 He did really well in the program.這兩句都是描述Mike,所以空上句子也是跟Mike有關，選項C. He was the main reason for the program's huge success這個電視劇成功的主要原因能跟前后句很好的銜接起來，故選C。

【3】此空前面內容描述了Mike不遵守承諾的事例和關心他人的事例。空后He sometimes did wrong things, but also cared for others and was a warm person.他有時候做錯事，但是也關心他人，是一個熱心人。這些都是Mike品質的兩面性的描述，所以選D。

【4】根據(jù)空前Perhaps another reason why the program was popular in America is that most of its stories were about normal family problems.可知這部電視劇受歡迎的另一個原因是它描述了一些共同的家庭問題，所以后一句應該是Many of the people watching the program had the same problems.看電視劇的很多人有著同樣的問題，跟下一句Like Mike's parents…也很好地做了銜接，故選A。

還原型閱讀思路其實很簡單，空上所填句子要要么做到“承上”，要么“啟下”，要么“承上啟下”，所以解題關鍵是仔細分析空前后的句子。比如第2小題，空前后內容都是描述Mike的，所以空上內容也跟Mike相關，然后對比選項就不難選出答案了。
