Ⅵ.阅读理解
When Leon Martin asked for his parents' advice on how to become a UX designer, they both went silent. “In fact, I had no idea what he was talking about,” said Anne, his mother.
Even when her 18-year-old son explained that it was something about “behind the scenes” online design, his mother was still a bit lost. “I felt like I had totally failed as a parent,” she said. “My job as a parent is to open doors so my children can achieve best of their abilities, but how can I do that when I don't even understand what their dreams are?”
____ Research has found that more than 2/3 of parents in England are now facing the problem that, when their children express interest in job choices, they may know nothing about them. Over 75% of parents feel it is impossible to offer their children good advice in such a fast-changing job market.
Michelle Rea did a survey of over 2,000 parents of secondary school students in England. She found that many parents were afraid their children would just stop talking about their career plans simply because their parents could hardly follow them. “We all know parents' opinions and suggestions play an important role in shaping their children's career dreams,” she said. “But we usually depend much on our own experiences. And things have changed so much since most of us were at school.”
Bryony Mathew, writer of a series of career books, said the world was changing so rapidly that parents should respect their children's decisions.

【文章大意】本文是一篇说明文，介绍了很多父母感到困惑的一个问题，即当他们的孩子表达对工作选择的兴趣时，他们可能对此一无所知。
1. D 写作意图题。根据第三段“Research has found that more than 2/3 of parents in England are now facing the problem that, when their children express interest in job choices, they may know nothing about them.”可知，文章开头提到 Leon 和他父母的问题是要表明父母中存在的一个普遍的问题——当他们的孩子表达对工作选择的兴趣时，他们可能对此一无所知。故选 D。
2. C 推理判断题。根据第二段“My job as a parent is to open doors so my children can achieve best of their abilities”可知，Anne 认为一个成功的家长应该能提高自己孩子的能力。故选 C。
3. A 补全文章题。根据上文“My job as a parent is to open doors so my children can achieve best of their abilities, but how can I do that when I don't even understand what their dreams are?”和第三段“Research has found that more than 2/3 of parents in England are now facing the problem that, when their children express interest in job choices, they may know nothing about them.”可知，此处是说 Anne 的情况不是个例，很多父母都有这样的经历。故选 A。
4. B 推理判断题。根据第四段“She found that many parents were afraid their children would just stop talking about their career plans simply because their parents could hardly follow them.”可知，Michelle Rea 的调查发现，许多父母担心他们的孩子会停止和他们谈论自己的职业规划，即拒绝分享自己的职业梦想。故选 B。
