18.A.What do you think of the competition between China and the US?
B.What do you think of the image of"tiger mom?"
C.How do your daughters take the criticism about you after your book was published?
D.You said you would not get her Christmas gifts or anything when your daughter refused to repeatedly practice the music.How did your husband respond?
E.What do you think makes a good mother?
F.What does your husband think of your method of bringing up kids?

61.E
Chua's answer:Well,actually I think there are many ways of being a good mother.In my book my focus is just a memory about my own family story,me trying to raise my own children in a kind of traditional Chinese way.I make mistakes and I make fun of myself.It's amazing the way the book has been received internationally,because.I didn't intend my book to be telling other people of view and I am a proud strict"tiger mom".But I'm not trying to tell other people what are the best ways to teach or raise their children.
62.B
Chua's answer:Well,the title may sound a little frightening.Let me tell you why I chose the title.I was born in the year of the tiger.And"battle Hymn"in the United States comes from"The Battle Hymn of the Republic".The book is really about finding some sort of balance:how can we find the balance between the eastern way of parenting and the western way of parenting.In mays the book as been misunderstood maybe because of the title.
63.A
Chua's answer:I didn't write this book to have any foreign policy implications.But it's been taken into the foreign policy realm.It is of course true that there is a connection between child-raising and the future of nations.We are raising,as parents,the next generation.So I think Henry is right.We tapped into this thing of insecurity,American's fear about the rising power of china.A friend of mine told me that if the book hasd been called The Battle Hymn of an Italian Mother or The Battle Hymn of a Mexican Mother,nobody would have cared.It's really"China".you know.
64.F
Chua's answer:I don't think he opposes my idea of raising children.I'd like to think we have a combination,which is the right solution.You need a balance.From my perspective,what I give my kids is something that I thought was lacking in the US educational system.You know,they hate memorization,while in China you have too much of it.In the US,learning should be fun,a lot of games,.So I b rought hard work and disciplines.My husband and I think this is a great thing always teaching them to question the authority and to ask why.Don't accept everything just because somebody tells you.Figure it out yourself.I really think you need to combine both these qualities if you want creativity and dynamism.
65.C
Chua's answer:They both are stronger than I am.I am really proud of them.Their friends and communities supported them.At a time,I couldn't even look at the Internet because there are so many negative comments.And they would find the good ones and text them to me,saying"here's a good one mommy,hang in there."This experience has actually brought my family together.Believe it or not,not just my kids,also my parents and my three younger sisters have supported me.

分析 本文是记者对虎妈的采访记录,记者从以下几个方面进行了采访.一、是什么使她成为一个好母亲.二、书名虎妈的来历.三、该书是否和中国美国之间的竞争有关系.四、丈夫是否同意她的教育孩子的方法.五、在书出版后女儿如何应对外界的批评的舆论.

6.While income worry is a rather common problem of the aged,loneliness is another problem that aged parents may face.Of all the reasons (32)that explain their loneliness,a large geographical distance between parents and their children is the major one.This phenomenon is commonly known as"Empty Nest Syndrome"(空巢综合症).
In order to seek (33)better(good) chances outside their countries,many young people have gone abroad,(34)leaving(leave) their parents behind with no clear idea of when they will return home.Their parents spend countless lonely days and nights,taking care of themselves,in the hope that someday their children will come back to stay with them.The fact (35)that most of these young people have gone to Europeanized or Americanized societies makes it unlikely that they will hold as tightly to the value of duty (36)as they would have if they had not left their countries.Whatever the case,it has been noted that the values they hold do not necessarily match (37)what they actually do.This geographical and cultural distance also prevents the grown-up children from providing timely response (38)for the needs of their aged parents.
The situation in which grown-up children live far away from their aged parents (39)has been described (describe) as"distant parent phenomenon",(40)which is common both in developed countries and in developing countries.Our society has not yet been well prepared for"Empty Nest Syndrome".
The fact that most of these young people have gone to Europeanized or Americanized societies makes it unlikely that they will hold as tightly to the value of duty as they would have if they had not left their countries.Whatever the case,it has been noted that the values they hold do not necessarily match what they actually do.

13.Since my retirement from teaching music in 2001,I have spent a good deal of time (25)painting (paint) as an artist.I actually began drawing in the summer of 1995when my father died,so perhaps I was trying to recover (26)from the loss of my father,or maybe it was just paintings (27)that brought back memories of him.In any case,I drew pen and ink animals and landscapes much influenced by Krenkel and St.John for five years.
For some strange reason,I had been waiting until my retirement to start doing watercolors again,but (28)as soon as I walked out of the school door for the last time,I picked up my brushes and rediscovered Andrew Wyeth,who quickly became my favorite artist.I had looked through all the art books I had on my shelves and found his watercolors to be (29)the closest (close) to how I thought good watercolors should look.So I painted landscapes around Minnesota for three years and tried out many other types of painting.However,watercolors remained my first choice,and I think I did my best work there,(30)displaying (display) my paintings at a number of art shows.
It is wonderful to have some time doing (31)what/something/everything I want to do.As Confucius once said,"At seventy I can follow my heart's desire."
