21、When your child lies to you, it hurts. As parents, it makes us angry and we take it personally. We feel like we can never trust our child again. Why does lying cause such anger, pain and worry for parents?

Parents are understandably very afraid of their children getting hurt and getting into trouble, but they have very little protection against these things as they send their kids out into the word. Kids learn from other kids and from external media, and this makes parents feel unsafe because they can’t control the information and ideas that their children are exposed to.

When your kid lies, you start to see him as “sneaky（卑鄙的）”, especially if he continues to lie to you. You feel that he’s going behind your back. You begin to think that your kids are “bad”. Because, certainly, if lying is bad, liars are bad. It’s just that simple. Parents need to make their kids responsible for lying. But the mistake parents make is that they start to blame the kid for lying. It’s considered immoral to lie. But when you look at your kid like he’s a sneak, it’s a slippery slope （滑坡谬误）that starts with “You lie” and ends up at “You’re a bad person”.

Kids know lying is forbidden. But they don’t see it as hurtful. So a kid will say, “I know it’s wrong that I eat a sugar snack when I’m not supposed to. But who does it hurt?” “I know it’s wrong that I trade my dried fruit for a Twinkie. But it doesn’t really hurt anybody. I can handle it. What’s the big deal?” That’s what the kid sees.

So I think that parents have to assume that kids are going to tell them lies, because they’re immature and they don’t understand how hurtful these things are. They’re all drawn to excitement, and they’ll all have a tendency to distort(歪曲) the truth because they’re kids.

【1】Why do parents worry about their kids and feel unsafe?

A. Nobody trusts their kids in the world because of lying.

B. Lying always causes their kids to get hurt or get into trouble.

C. Their kids are exposed to outside world without their control.

D. They can’t protect their kids from other kids and external media.

【2】What’s the author’s attitude towards parents’ seeing kids as bad if they lie?

A. Immoral.   B. Negative.

C. Supportive.   D. Different.

【3】The underlined word “they” really refers to ________.

A. parents   B. their children

C. other kids   D. bad things

【4】How do parents react to kids’ lying?

A. Taking no notice of it.

B. Blaming them immediately.

C. Pretending to be angry and educate them.

D. Accept it but make them responsible for it.

22、The Nobel Prize in Literature, which has been awarded annually almost every year since 1901, netted(净赚)the winning author 747,000 pounds, a medal and a certificate (证书), and the legal duty to deliver a lecture in Sweden at some future dates. The winner was selected, as usual, by the Swedish Academy, which also picked a second laureate (获奖者)this year to make up for the fact that no prize was presented in 2018 because of a scandal(丑闻).

The Nobel Prize in Literature for 2018 was awarded to the Polish author Olga Tokarczuk (奥尔加·托卡尔丘克) for “a narrative imagination that with encyclopedic (百科全书式的)passion represents the crossing of boundaries as a form of life”. She won last year’s Man Booker International Prize for her novel Flights. Her representative works (代表作) include Drive Your Plow Over the Bones of the Dead and Primeval and Other Times.

The Nobel Prize in Literature for 2019 was awarded to the Austrian author Peter Handke (彼得·汉德克) for “an influential work that with linguistic ingenuity(语言的独创性)has explored the periphery and the specificity of human experience”. His representative works include A Sorrow Beyond Dreams and Slow Homecoming.

Before the announcement of the Nobel Prize in Literature winners, there were also two nominees(被提名者)who have attracted much attention. Chinese people were keeping an eye on the nominee Can Xue. Can Xue, whose real name is Deng Xiaohua, was born in central China’s Hunan Province in 1953. She had a tough childhood, working as a worker in a street factory for eight years. Her life experience has formed her own unique literary path. Can’s books have been translated and published outside China. Frontier, published in the US in 2017, won attention and applause of the West.

The other hot guess was the Japanese writer Haruki Murakami (村上春树) whose books and stories had been bestsellers in Japan as well as internationally, with his work being translated into 50 languages and selling millions of copies outside his native country. His work has received numerous awards. Internet users kept an eye on him in the Nobel Prize in Literature because he had become a hot guess for years. His representative works include Norwegian Wood, Kafka on the Shore and 1Q84.
