Question

Many parents take on the role of being their children’s preschool teacher and the responsibility of readying them for kindergarten. To achieve this goal, it is important for parents to introduce a variety of subjects in a positive and playful manner.
“Learning should not be forced,”says Marion Godwin, who has taught first grade in Moorestown, N. J. for more than 30 years.“ It should be taught according to what they know and do best—and that is‘ play’. When teaching  them, play games and have fun with the subject. And parents should always be looking for‘teachable moments’.”
“You want a child to be a lifelong learner, so you want to show them learning is everywhere,”she says.“If parents take the time to lay a strong educational foundation, their children will keep building on it.”
Introduce children to science with hands-on activities that interest them, such as growing plants from seeds, discussing animals and how to care for pets, and observing the chemical changes that occur during cooking”, she says.
“Sorting activities, simple patterns and counting games are a great way to teach children the basics of math, and taking them on field trips, singing songs and reciting rhymes also are ways to prepare them for the first day of school”, she says.
“I think children are naturals when it comes to computers,” she says.“Let them play educational games on the computer and teach them how to type their first names using the keyboard. When they are more familiar with using the computer, let them find pictures of animals and places on the web. ”
“Don’t criticize the child,” she says. “You can’t force them to learn something. If they don’t get something right, so what? Smile and be happy and make the experience joyful. Parents need to understand that if a child gets something wrong, they may think something is wrong with them. Keep working with them and when they get the right answer make sure you tell them how hard they worked to get the correct answer. ”

解析試題分析:作為孩子的第一位老師，家長應(yīng)該如何承擔(dān)起培養(yǎng)孩子良好學(xué)習(xí)習(xí)慣的任務(wù)呢？作者認(rèn)為家長首先要用積極的適合孩子水平的教育手段，而且要在生活中時(shí)時(shí)刻刻去尋找教育孩子的機(jī)會。
【小題1】B推理判斷題。通過文章第二段 It should be taught according to what they know and do best—and that is‘ play’可以推測Godwin認(rèn)為要根據(jù)孩子不同的興趣和理解水平來對孩子進(jìn)行教育，選B。
【小題2】C 細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文章第四段首句Introduce children to science with hands-on activities that interest them, such as……可知Godwin認(rèn)為要通過有趣的動手的活動來教給孩子科學(xué)知識，故答案選C。
【小題3】D.推理判斷題。通過文章倒數(shù)第二段的講述“Let them play educational games on the computer and teach them how to type their first names using the keyboard.可以判斷Godwin認(rèn)為孩子在網(wǎng)上的學(xué)習(xí)需在大人的指導(dǎo)下進(jìn)行，選D。
【小題4】A主旨大意題。文章主要講述了作為學(xué)齡前兒童的家長應(yīng)該如何去承擔(dān)起教育孩子的任務(wù)，在文中Godwin提到 And parents should always be looking for‘teachable moments’.和”“You want a child to be a lifelong learner, so you want to show them learning is everywhere,”，由此判斷A選項(xiàng)內(nèi)容是文章體現(xiàn)的中心，故選A。
