example, was the great Italian artist, Leonardo Da Vinci. In the sixteenth
century he made designs for machines that would fly, but they were never built. Throughout history, other less famous men had

life," says my nine-year-old son. "I don't know why you think you can
do that, but you can't." I received this bit of information after I asked
Gabriele to put his dirty socks in the basket. And I get no sympathy from my
mother, who says, "You let him have his way from the beginning."
It's true. I have always asked Gabriele's opinion, found out how he felt
about things - treated him as my peer, not my child. And what have I got from
my troubles? A lot of back talk. At least I'm not alone; it's a complaint heard
among parents across the country. It's
not just that we're confused by the contradictory advice offered in parenting
books. The fact is, in an effort to break away from how we were raised - to try
something more liberal than our parents' "do it because I say so"
approach - our generation has gone too far. "Today's parents want to be
young, so they try to be friends with their children," says Kathy Lynn, a
parenting educator. "When
it comes to discipline, our society has gone from one extreme to the
other," says Ron Moorish, a behavior specialist. "We used to use the
strap, to intimidate. Then we had permissiveness, and now it's about giving
children choices and allowing them to learn from their own experiences." Real
discipline, says Moorish, is about teaching. "By correcting our children
when they do something wrong, we teach them how to behave properly," he
says. But this only works, he emphasizes, if parents regain their position of
authority. Children will always be children. The key is for parents to choose
to take the time to guide and teach their kids. Rita
Munday, a mother of four children, couldn't believe the dramas that played out
in the children's shoe store she operated. She often saw children insist on
having the high-priced, brand-name shoes. And even when the mother didn't want
to spend the money, she would give in when the kid started acting up and
throwing shoes around. Rhonda
Radice, Munday's younger colleague, is one parent who has bucked the trend -
and is proud of it. "I don't negotiate with them. You can't. I've seen
parents come into the store and bribe their children to behave. You shouldn't
have to buy love and respect."
(6)、The author's
way of treating her son ____________. A:is shared by many parents B:is encouraged by her mother C:proves to be quite successful D:shows little concern for the child
(7)、It can be

children B:parents need to follow the advice of parenting
books C:today's children enjoy more freedom than the
previous generation D:today's parents are better at raising children
than previous generation
(8)、According to
the passage, to have "discipline" means that parents should
___________. A:adopt the "do it because I say
so"approach B: teach their children to understand the rules C:negotiate with their children for a decision D:never allow their children to have their ways
(9)、If Ronda
Radice is the parent who has "bucked the trend", which of the
following can also be cited as the example for"bucking the trend"? A:Parents buy whatever their children want. B:Parents treat their children as their equals. C:Parents make decisions for their children. D:Parents maintain authority over their children.

3、
One day in 1965, when I was a library worker at school, a
teacher came to me. She had a student who finished his work before all the
others and needed something more difficult for him to do. "Could you help
me in the library?" she asked. I said, "Send him along." Soon, a golden-haired boy appeared. "Do you
have a job for me?" he asked. I told him about a system for sorting books.
He picked up the idea immediately. Then I showed him some cards for some
unreturned books that I thought had been returned but not recorded. Maybe some
books were put on wrong places. He said, "Is it a kind of a detective (侦探)
job?" I answered yes, and then began his work. He had found three
books with wrong cards by the time his teacher opened the door and said,
"Time for rest!" he argued for finishing the finding job, but the
teacher won. The next morning,
he arrived early, "I want to finish these books," he said. At the end
of the day, when he asked to work with me more often, it was easy for me to say
yes. After a few weeks I
found a note on my desk, inviting me to dinner at the boy's home. At the end of
a pleasant evening, his mother declared that the family would be moving to
another school. Her son's first concern, she said, was leaving the library.
"Who will find the lost books?" he asked. When the time came, it was
hard to say goodbye. Though at the beginning he had seemed an ordinary boy, his
strong feeling of interest had made him different. Do you know who he is? This boy became a
great man of the Information Age: Bill Gates.
(11)、Why did the teacher go to the library to find a job for Bill Gates? A:Because
the teacher found the librarian quite busy. B:Because
Bill Gates wanted to find a job. C:Because
Bill Gates finished his study quickly and had more free time than the others. D:Because
the library needed a new worker.
(12)、What do you know from the passage? A:Library
work was very difficult for Bill Gates. B:Bill
Gates did his job without any difficulty. C:The
librarian was too busy to have a rest. D:His
mother hoped that Bill Gates would stay for his job.
(13)、The sentence "He picked up the idea immediately" means that
______. A:he
learned that system quickly B:he
collected that system quickly C:he
lifted up that system quickly D:he
improved that system quickly

the lost cards. B:Learning
