Question

I am a strong believer that if a child is raised with approval, he will learn to love himself and will be successful in his own way.

Several weeks ago, I was doing homework with my son in the third grade and he kept standing up from his chair to go over the math lines. I kept asking him to sit down, telling him that he would concentrate better. He sat but seconds later, as if he didn’t even notice he was doing it, he got up again. I was getting frustrated, but then it hit me. I started noticing his answers were much quicker and accurate (準確的) when he stood up. Could he be more intent (專心的) while standing up?

This made me start questioning myself and what I had been raised to believe. I was raised to believe that a quiet, calm child was a sure way to success. This child would have the discipline (紀律) to study hard, get good grades and become someone important in life.www.zxxk.com

Now those same people perhaps come to realize that their kids are born with their own sets of DNA and personality traits (特點) and all you can do is loving and accepting them. As parents, throughout their growing years and beyond that, we need to be our kids’ best cheer leaders, guiding them and helping them find their way.

I have stopped asking my son to sit down and concentrate. Obviously, he is concentrating just in his own way and not mine. We need to learn to accept our kids’ ways of doing things. Some way may have worked for me but doesn’t mean we need to carry it through generations. There is nothing sweeter than being individual (個人的) and unique (獨一無二的). It makes us free and happy and that’s just the way I want my kids to live their own life.

試題分析：文章大意：作者通過輔導(dǎo)孩子寫作業(yè)的經(jīng)歷意識到用傳統(tǒng)的教育方式約束孩子已不再適用，父母應(yīng)該引導(dǎo)和幫助孩子找到適合他們自身的學(xué)習(xí)方法，培養(yǎng)獨特個性，進而獲得成功。

1.A 細節(jié)題。根據(jù)第二段前半部分中的“I kept asking him to sit down, telling him that he should concentrate better”可知作者讓兒子坐下來是想讓他更專心地學(xué)習(xí)。

2.B 細節(jié)題。結(jié)合第三段的內(nèi)容可推斷作者開始懷疑傳統(tǒng)教育方式。

3.D 推理題。根據(jù)最后一段的We need to learn to accept our kids’ ways of doing things. Some way may have worked for me but doesn’t mean we need to carry it through generations.判斷D正確。

4.C 概括題。文章第一段開門見山地提出了本文的主題，如果孩子得到了認同，就能學(xué)會自愛并用自己的方式取得成功，所以C項最能概括文章大意。
