         Department stores sell ready-to-wear clothing, which is also called ready-made-clothing Such clothing
    is made in fixed sizes. Those people who find that ready-made clothing fits them well can save money by
    buying it. Most often. People do not fit exactly into a producer's size. Their clothing must be altered (改变)
    to make it fit better, However, most alterations are not very expensive. The small cost of most allerations
    means that ready-made clothing can meet the needs of most customer.
         Those who can afford it often get someone to design and make their clothing. Such clothing is called
    custom-made(定做的). The person who makes it measures the customer, and then sews it so that it fits
    perfectly. Alterations are not needed. Custom-made clothing is largely sewn by hand. Has better quality,
    better material, and is of the style you have chosen. Of course, it costs much more than ready-to-wear
    clothing. You need to pay the difference for the special fitting and better skill that you are receiving. This
    often means that you spend double or more than you would for a ready-made garment (衣服).
         Custom-made clothing is not always that much better than ready-made clothing. It costs more partly
    because only one garment has been made, just for you. Companies that produce ready-made products make
    thousands of garments at a time. This means they can buy large quantities of material. Workers cut each
    size by the hundreds. Companies work out ways to make the garments, quickly ly machine and pay workers
    according to their skill. Thus they can sell the finished products at a low price while still making money.
    Most of the clothing sold in the United States is made in this way. Customers gain from the lower prices
    which are made possible by mass production (批量生产).It may or may not give them high quality.
    1. According to the passage, people who buy ready-made clothing _____.
    A. wish to make alterations
    B. can fit into the sizes

         Madame de Stael says that only the people who can play with children are able to educate them.For
    success in training children, the first condition is to become a child oneself.It means to treat the child as
    really one's equal, that is, to show him the same consideration, the same kind of confidence one shows to
    an adult.It means not to affect the child to be what we ourselves want him to become, but to be affected
    by the impression of what the child himself is; not to treat the child with cheating, or by force, but with the
    seriousness and true love suitable to his own character.
         Not leaving the child in peace is the greatest problem of present methods of training children.Parents
    do not see that during the whole life, the need of peace is never greater than in the years of childhood, an
    inner peace under all outside liveliness.
         But what does a child experience?Corrections, orders, interference (干涉), the whole livelong day.
    The child is always required to leave something alone, or to do something different, to find something
    different, or to want something different from what he does, or finds, or wants.He is always guided in
    another direction from the true inner will that is leading him.All of this is caused by our socalled enthusiasm
    in directing, advising, and helping the child to become the same model produced in one assembly line (流水线). Understanding, the deepest characteristic of love, is almost always absent.
         To bring up a child means carrying one's soul in one's hand; it means never placing ourselves in
    danger of meeting the cold look on the face of the child.It means the truth that the ways of injuring the
    child are limitless while the ways of being useful to him are few.How seldom does the educator remember
    that the child, even at four or five years of age, has already had a sharp feeling!The smallest mistrust and
    unkindness, the least act of injustice, leave wounds that last for life in the heart of the child.While, on the
    other hand, unexpected friendliness and kindness make quite as deep an impression on those soft senses.

    1. The passage mainly talks about________.

    A. misleading zones and right ways in educating children
    B. current problems in training children
    C. what should be taught to children
