网络资源 免费考研网/2009-01-16
Questions 59 to 62 are based on the following passages:
“It hurts me more than you”, and “this is for your won
good.” These are the statements my mother used to make
years age when I had to learn Latin, clean my room, stay
home and do homework.
That was before we entered the permissive period in
education in which we decided it was all right not to push
our children to achieve their best in school. The schools
and the educators made it easy on us. They taught that it
was all right to be parents who take a let-alone policy. We
stopped making our children do homework. We gave them
calculators, turned on the television, left the teaching to
the teachers and went on vacation.
Now teachers, faced with children who have been developing
at their own peace for the past 15 years, are realizing we’
ve made a terrible mistake. One such teacher is Sharon
Klompus who says of her students—“so passive”——and
wonders what happened. Nothing was demanded of them, she
believes. Television, says Klempus, contributes to
children’passivity, “we’re not training kids to work any
more,” says Klomepus, “we’re talking about a generation
of kids who’ve never been hurt or hungry. They have
learned somebody will always do it for them. Instead of
saying, “ go look it up”, you tell them the answer. It
takes greater energy to say no to a kid.”
Yes, it does. It takes energy and it takes work. It’s time
for parents to end their vacation and come back to work.
It’s time to take the car away, to turn the TV off, to
tell them it hurts you more than them but it’s for their
own good. It’s time to start telling them no again.
