举一反三
| 阅读理解。 | A child who has once been pleased with a tale likes, as a rule, to have it retold in almost the same
words, but this should not lead parents to treat printed fairly stories as formal texts. It is always much
better to tell a story than read it out of a book, and if a parent can produce what, in the actual situation
of the time and the child, is an improvement on the printed text, so much the better.
A charge made against fairy tales is that they harm the child by frightening him or making him sad
thinking. To prove the latter, one would have to show in a controlled experiment that children who have
read fairy stories were more often sorry for cruelty than those who had not. As to fears, there are, in
think, some cases of children being dangerously terrified by some fairy story. Often, however, this arises
from the child having heard the story once. Familiarity with the story by repetition turns the pain of fear
into the pleasure of a fear faces and mastered.
There are also people who object to fairy stories on the grounds that they are not objectively true,
that giants, witches, two-headed dragons, magic carpets, etc. do not exist; and that , instead of being
fond of the strange side in fairy tales, the child should be taught to learn the reality by studying history. I
find such people, I must say so peculiar that I do not know how to argue with them. If their case were
sound, the world should be full of mad men attempting to fly from New York to Philadelphia on a stick
or covering a telephone with kisses in the belief that it was their beloved girlfriend.
No fairy story ever declared to be a description of the real world and no clever child has ever
believed that it was | | 1. The author considers that a fairy story is more effective when it is_______ | A. repeated without any change
B. treated as a joke
C. make some changes by the parents
D. set in the present | | 2. According to the passage, great fear can take place in a child when the story is _____. | A. in a realistic setting
B. heard for the first time
C. repeated too often
D. told in a different way | | 3. The advantage claimed (提出) for repeating fairy stories to young children is that it ______. | A. makes them less fearful
B. develops their power of memory
C. makes them believe there is nothing to be afraid of
D. encourages them not to have strange beliefs | | 4. The author"s mention of sticks and telephones is meant to suggest that _______. | A. fairy stories are still being made up
B. there is some misunderstanding about fairy tales
C. people try to modernize old fairy stories
D. there is more concern for children"s fears nowadays | | 5. One of the reasons why some people are not in favor of fairy tales is that ______. | A. they are full of imagination
B. they just make up the stories which are far from the truth
C. they are not interesting
D. they make teachers of history difficult to teach | | 完形填空。 | In the depths of my memory, many things I did with my father still live. These things have come to

used to make years ago 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 for
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 calculat ors, turned on the te levision, left the teaching to the
teachers and went on vacation.
Now teachers, faced with children who have been developing at their own pace for the past 15 years,
are realizing we"ve made a terrible mistake. One such teacher is Sharon Clomps who says of her
students-"so passive" -and wonders what has happened. Nothing is demanded  of them, she believes.
Television, says Clomps, contributes to children"s passivity. "We"re talking about a generation of kids
who" vet never been hurt or hungry. They have learned somebody will always do it for them, instead of
saying "go and 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 s time to start telling them no again. | | 1. Children are becoming more inactive in study because _______. | A. they watch TV too often
B. they have done too much homework
C. they have to fulfill too many duties
D. teachers are too strict with them | | 2. We learn from the passage that the author"s mother used to lay emphasis on _______. | A. learning Latin
B. discipline
C. natural development
D. education at school | | 3. By "permissive period in education" (L.1, Para.2) the author means a time _______. | A. when children are allowed to do what they wish to
B. when everything can be taught at school
C. when every child can be educated
D. when child ren are permitted to receive education | | 4. The main idea of the passage is that _______. | A. parents should leave their children alone
B. kids should have more activities at school
C. it"s time to be more strict with our kids
