【題目】根據(jù)短文理解,選擇正確答案。
A new book called “Battle Hymn of the Tiger Mother” by Amy Chua has caused a debate (爭(zhēng)論) about cultural differences in parenting. Amy Chua is a teacher in an American university and both of her parents are Chinese. In the book, Ms. Chua writes about how she taught her daughters. She told NBC television that she had a clear list of what her daughters were not allowed to do, such as having a play date, watching TV or playing computer games and getting any grade less than an A.
Many people are against Amy Chua's parenting style (風(fēng)格), even her husband, who is American. They say it is rude and unfair to children. But she says her parents raised her and her three sisters in that way.
Ms. Chua says after her younger daughter shouted “I hate my life! I hate you!” she decided to retreat because she was afraid of losing her daughter. But she also says American parents often have low expectations of their children's abilities.
“The debate is about what it means to be a successful parent and what it means to be a successful child,” said Stacy DeBroff, who has written four books on parenting. She says Amy Chua's parenting style is not limited to Chinese families. It is a traditional way of parenting among immigrants (移民). They hope to get a better future for their children.
She also sees a risk (風(fēng)險(xiǎn)). When children have no time to be social or to develop their own interests, they might not develop other skills that they need to succeed in life. DeBroff advises parents to develop their own style of parenting and not just repeat the way they were raised.
(1)Which of the following words can best describe Amy Chua?
A.Polite.
B.Cruel.
C.Strict.
D.Popular.
(2)The underlined word “retreat” in Paragraph 3 is closest in meaning to _____.
A.give up
B.go on
C.go out
D.give out
(3)According to Ms. DeBroff, _____.
A.Amy Chua's parenting style should be forbidden
B.Americans should learn from Amy Chua
C.parents should have their own parenting style
D.Amy Chua's style is bad for children's growth
(4)In which part of a newspaper can you read the passage?
A.Business.
B.Entertainment.
C.Sports.
D.Culture.

【答案】
(1)C
(2)A
(3)C
(4)D

⑵詞義猜測(cè)。根據(jù)第三段第一句Ms. Chua says after her younger daughter shouted “I hate my life! I hate you!”可知,她的小女兒對(duì)她說:“我厭惡生活!我討厭你!”她聽了之后因?yàn)楹ε率ヅ畠,所以她決定放棄,所以答案是A。

⑶細(xì)節(jié)理解。根據(jù)文章最后一句DeBroff advises parents to develop their own style of parenting and not just repeat the way they were raised.可知,DeBroff建議父母?jìng)儜?yīng)該有自己的教育方式。所以答案是C。

⑷推理判斷。根據(jù)第一段中A new book called Battle Hymn(圣歌) of the Tiger Mother by Amy Chua has caused a debate about cultural differences in parenting.及全文內(nèi)容可知,本文主要是圍繞這本書的教育方法來講述的,故本文應(yīng)該出自報(bào)紙的“文化”版塊。所以答案是D。

He 2 (think) to be a music teacher and a 3 (talent) musician who was able to play several instruments expertly. Perhaps for other people around the world, music was meant mainly for amusement. 4 during the time of the Zhou Dynasty about 500 BC, music had an important role in making society stable.

How music was used and performed is expressed in several main Confucian books. Confucius taught that 5 (educate) somebody, you should start with poems, emphasize ceremonies, and finish with music.

Musical knowledge was 6 matter of higher learning. It is said that he thought of the six most important 7 (subject) to study, ranking music higher than the other five necessary subjects like writing and mathematics.
