"It hurts me more than you," and "This is for your own good." These are the statements my mother used to make years ago when I had to learn Latin, lean my room, stay home and do homework.

That was before we entered the permissive period in education in which we decided it was all right not to push our children to achieve their best in school. The schools and the educators made it easy on us. They taught that it was all right to be parents who take a let-alone policy. We stopped making our children do homework. We gave them calculators turned on the television, left the teaching to the teachers and went on vacation.

Now teachers, faced with children who have been developing at their own pace for the past 15 years, are realizing we've made a terrible mistake. One such teacher is Sharon Klompus who says of her students-"so passive"-and wonders what happened. Nothing was demanded of them, she believes. Television, says Kiompus, contributes to children's passivity. "We're not training kids to work any more," says Klompus, "We're talking about a generation kids who have never been hurt or hungry. They have learned somebody will always do it for them. Instead of saying‘go look it up', you tell them the answer. It takes greater energy to say 'no' to a kid."

Yes, it does. It takes energy and it takes work. It's time for parents to end their vacation and come back to work. It's time to take the car away, to turn the TV off, to tell them it hurts you more than them but it's for their own good. It's time to start telling them "no" again.

第26題. Children are becoming more inactive in study because ________.

A. they watch TV too often

B. they have done too much homework

C. they have to fulfil too many duties

D. teachers are too strict with them

答案： A

詳解：答案A.見第三段第四句Kompus說(shuō)，電視助長(zhǎng)了孩子們學(xué)習(xí)的消極性。這與A項(xiàng)的內(nèi)容一致。contribute to在文中意指“促成、助長(zhǎng)”。

第27題.To such children as described in the passage______.

A. it is easier to say "no" than to say "yes"

B. neither is easy-to say "no" or to say "yes"

C. it is easier to say "yes" than to say "no"

D. neither is difficult-to say "yes" or to say "no"

答案： C

詳解：答案C.第三段后一句講的是：孩子們說(shuō)不要花更大的力氣。言外之意是說(shuō)“好”可以少費(fèi)些力氣，這正是C項(xiàng)所表達(dá)的意思。

第28題.We learn from the passage that the author's mother used to lay emphasis on _______.

A. learning Latin

B. natural development

C. discipline

D. education at school

答案： C

詳解：答案C.作者在文章開頭告訴我們：幾年前，我不得不學(xué)拉丁語(yǔ)、打掃房間，呆在家里做家庭作業(yè)時(shí)，我母親就常對(duì)我說(shuō)：“這與其說(shuō)使你難受，倒不如說(shuō)使我難受，這是為你好”。根據(jù)經(jīng)驗(yàn)我們知道這是母親在要求自己的孩子好好學(xué)習(xí)時(shí)常說(shuō)的話。這表明作者的母親管教是十分嚴(yán)格的。故C項(xiàng)為正確答案。

第29題. By "permissive period, in education" (S1, Para.2) the author means a time ________

A. when children are allowed to do what they wish to

B. when everything can be taught at school

C. when every child can be educated

D. when children are permitted to receive education

答案： A

詳解：答案A.第二段具體描述了詳permissive period in education(教育的自然發(fā)展階段)的情形：無(wú)人要求孩子在學(xué)校取得好成績(jī)，無(wú)人責(zé)怪父母對(duì)孩子放任自流。孩子可以使用計(jì)算器，可以看電視，父母則驅(qū)車去度假?？傊?，父母對(duì)孩子不管教，也就是說(shuō)，孩子可以隨心所欲。這與A項(xiàng)的意思一致。

第30題.The main idea of the passage is that _______

A. parents should leave their children alone

B. kids should have more activities at school

C. it's time to be more strict with our kids

D. parents should always set a good example to their kids

答案： C

詳解：答案C.綜觀全文，段講作者小時(shí)候母親對(duì)他要求嚴(yán)格;第二段講以后一個(gè)時(shí)期學(xué)校和家長(zhǎng)對(duì)孩子采取了任其自然發(fā)展的態(tài)度;第三段講現(xiàn)在老師發(fā)現(xiàn)這個(gè)時(shí)期成長(zhǎng)起來(lái)的孩子十分缺乏積極主動(dòng)的精神，認(rèn)識(shí)到聽任孩子自然發(fā)展的態(tài)度十分錯(cuò)誤;第四段指出現(xiàn)在必須改變這種狀況，即像以前那樣嚴(yán)格要求孩子。由此可見，本文主題思想是C項(xiàng)。
