    　　Japanese students work very hard but many are very unhappy．They feel great pressure from their parents to do well in school and in college．Most students are always being told by their parents to study harder so that they can have successful future．Although this may be good advice for those who are very bright, it can have very bad results for many students who are nto quick enough at learning．

    　　Unfortunately, a number of students actually kill themselves．Others are after comfort in using drugs．Some students, however, do bad things with groups of bad people and turn to crime．Many of them have tried very hard at school but, in spite of all their tries, have failed in certain examinations and have disappointed their parents, Such students feel that they are less important than everyone else they meet and leave school before they finish their study．

    　　It is surprising that although most Japanese parents are anxious for their children to do well at school, they do not help them in any way．Many parents feel that they are unable to help their children with their lessons and that it is the teachers’ job to help their children．

    　　To make matters worse, a lot of parents send their children to special schools called jukucram schools．These schools are open during the evenings and on weekends, and their only purpose is to prepare students to pass exams; they do not try to educate students in any real sense of the world．Thus comes a shock to realize that almost three quarters of the junior high school students attend these cram schools．

    　　Ordinary Japanese schools usually have rules about everything from the length of students’ hair to their clothes and things in their school bags．Child psychologists now think that such strict rules often lead to a feeling of being unsafe and being unable to fit into society．They believe that no sense of moral values is developed and that students are given neither guidance nor training in becoming good citizens．

    In the last few years, some researchers have decided to study why kids lie(撒谎)，So they made up a special team of 12 students, all under the age of 21.

    Each student was given 36 cards, and each card listed a topic that teens sometimes lie about to their parents, The researchers worked through the cards with the teens, learning what things the kid was lying to his parents about, and why.

    By the end of the interviews, the kids saw for the first time how much they were lying and how many of family’s rules they had broken. It was reported that 98% of the teens had lied to their parents.

    Out of the 36 topics, the average(平均) teen was lying to his parents about 12 of them. The teens lied about what movie they went to, and whom they went with .They lied about how they spent their afternoons while their parents were at work, and something like that.

    Most parents hear their child lie and think he’s too young to understand what lies are or that lying is wrong. They believe their child will stop when he gets older. Many books also advise parents to just let lies go — they’ll grow out of it. But the truth is that kids grow into it. In studies where children are observed(观察) in their natural environment, a 4-year-old child will lie once every two hours, while a 6-year-old child will lie about once every hour and a half.

    1.The researchers started the project by     .

    A．playing cards

    B．free talking

    C．doing a survey

    D．discussion

    2.The topics on 36 cards are mostly between kids and      .

    A．parents

    B．teachers

    C．researchers

    D．friends

    3.From this passage, the teens lied on about      of the 36 topics as an average.

    A．12%

    B．33%

    C．98%

    D．25%

    4.On this topic, the advice from many books for the parents is that they     .

    A．needn’t worry about it too much

    B．should take it serious enough

    C．had better do something to stop it

    D．should regard it as a great problem
