Question

“A very disruptive（扰乱型的）six-year old child kicked my legs and clawed at my hand.” said one teacher. “I broke up a fight but was kicked，” said another. Many people have heard stories like this. But the situation is more worrying still and it involves(涉及) parents.

Every child, regardless of(不管) the surroundings into which they are born，has the right to achieve their potential. And we recognize that, as a nation，it is a long way to achieve this goal. But rights come with responsibilities and what worries people is that we are in danger of ignoring the latter.

Far too many children are behaving badly at school，even to the point of being violent to teachers. This is terrible enough，but it is hard to be surprised since many children are just mirroring the behavior of their parents. Too many are starting school unable to hold a knife and fork, unused to eating at a table，and unable to use the toilet properly.

We are in danger of becoming a nation of families living separate lives under one roof. The bedroom, once a place to sleep，has become the living space for the young. Spending hours in front of computer screens, on social networking sites or being addicted to computer games, children and young people spend little time with their parents. Parents are unable to monitor just what their children are watching.

Schools cannot right the wrongs of society and teachers cannot become substitute (代替)parents. Both parties need to work together. Parents must be helped and given confidence to take back control. They are responsible for setting limits to their children’s behavior and sticking to those limits when things get tough(困难). They are responsible for setting a good example to their children and for devoting that most precious of resources---time---so that children come to school ready and willing to learn.

【答案】

1.D

2.A

3.D

4.C

【解析】这是一篇社会文化类文章。现在的孩子在学校里的举止行为很让人担忧，他们不但不懂得基本的行为规范，而且还和老师发生冲突，作者认为造成这一切的原因在于父母疏于管理。

1.细节推断题。根据第二段中的But rights come with responsibilities and what worries people is that we are in danger of neglecting the latter.可知，人们虽然很重视孩子的权利，却忽视了他们应当承担的责任，所以选D项。

2.推理判断题。根据最后一段的内容可知，作者认为家长们应该负责制定子女的行为界限，坚持这些界限不可逾越。他们有责任为孩子树立良好的榜样以及为子女投入大量宝贵的资源——时间——让孩子们去学校，并愿意学习。由此可知作者对于父母们的表现是不满意的。

3.细节理解题。根据该段中的young people spend little time with their parents可知，父母虽然和孩子住在一起的时间行为。

4.推理判断题。根据最后一段的内容可知，父母要负起教育孩子的责任，要给孩子树立一个良好的榜样，要花费时间多和孩子在一起，使得他们做好上学的准备，所以选C。
