16."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,clean my room,stay home and do homework.
That was before we entered the permissive period in educafion 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 thought 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 15years,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 Klompus,contributes to children's passivity."We're not training kids to work any more,"says Klompus."we're talking about a generation of kids who've 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.

點評 閱讀理解是考查語篇理解能力.?嫉念}型有:推理判斷題;主旨大意題;細(xì)節(jié)理解題;猜測詞意題.近幾年又出現(xiàn)了兩種新的考查方式:寫作態(tài)度判斷題和文章結(jié)構(gòu)題.解題時,在讀懂文章的基礎(chǔ)上,還有特別注意掌握題型的特征,尤其是細(xì)節(jié)題和推斷題不可混淆:細(xì)節(jié)題是文章信息的再現(xiàn);推斷題是文章信息的提取.本題是廣告類文章,考查主要是以細(xì)節(jié)題為主,細(xì)節(jié)題要注意常用的出題陷阱有:夸大,縮小,張冠李戴,偷梁換柱,無中生有等,做題時要看清看準(zhǔn).
