三、 阅读理解
21. Let’s be honest, kids are strange. And when you hear your three- year-old son arguing over who gets to be the mom while playing “house” alone in the other room, you might question if you’ve done something wrong as a parent. But don’t worry, it’s perfectly normal for your child to have an imaginary friend, and it even has some benefits. While your kids are benefiting from playing with their imaginary friend, try out these other ways to raise an intelligent child!
One of the biggest profits is that it promotes creativity. Just think about it-you have to be a special kind of creative to carry on a conversation with an imaginary figure that doesn’t respond. Developmental psychologist Marjorie Taylor told PureWow that your child’s creativity will remain with them as they get older, even when they stop hanging out with their “friend”.
Along with being more creative, they will also have a better developed and more different vocabulary as well as stronger social skills. Talking to “Sally” or “Bob” all day will allow them to practice their speech and conversation skills. Researchers at La Trobe University in Australia found that children who engage with their imaginary friends on a regular basis use more complex sentences and are more confident in everyday social situations.
There are also some benefits for the parents. If your child’s brothers or sisters aren’t around or they’re an only child, they have someone to entertain them while you spend the time on you never-ending to-do list. So even though it might get odd when your kids constantly ask you to set an extra plate at the table for their imaginary friends, they’ll benefit in the future from keeping them around. Having an extra member of the family can’t be that bad, the more the merrier, right?
12. Who is the three-year-old boy talking to while playing “house” alone?
A. His toy.    B. His mother.
C. His brothers and sisters    D. His imaginary friend.
13. How does Marjorie Taylor feel about children playing with heir “friend”?
A. It helps children develop better.
B. It relieves busy parents’ pressure.
C. It shows children’s loneliness.
D. It makes the family get closer.
14. What does the author suggest to parents?
A. Sparing time with children.
B. Taking children to play outside.
C. Adopting an extra member of family.
D. Letting children play with imaginary friends.
15. What is the best title for the text?
A. Ways to play creatively
B. Ways to raise an intelligent child
C. Benefits of children’s having imaginary friends
D. Benefits of letting your child play
参考答案：
12. D    13. A    14. D    15. C
