As Christmas drew near, Mark stopped staying after school. I had always looked forward to 【3】 him. One afternoon, as he was leaving our classroom, I stopped him and asked why he hadn't been staying around to help me clean.

After saying that, he became embarrassed and rushed out of the room. He didn't stay after school anymore after that.

Finally, the last school day before Christmas came. Mark gave me a tiny box. I opened the wooden box and found nothing in it. I held the empty box and asked gently, "What is this, Mark?"

22、   It’s late at night. A car stops in the middle of a forest. After dropping off their three teenagers, the parents say “good luck” and drive away. The teenagers, totally lost, have to find their way back home by themselves.

It may sound crazy to you, but this is a tradition with a long history for Dutch parents called “dropping”. Dutch people believe that children should not depend too much on their parents and should learn how to solve problems through activities like “dropping”.

However, for many other parents around the world, their top worry is their children’s safety. After all, why should they put their children at risk when there are many other ways to develop their independence?

People have many different opinions about parenting (育儿). All parents want their children to be happy, healthy and successful. In China, for example, many parents spend much money on summer vacation activities for their children. They want their children to enjoy their vacation as much as possible.

But some parents try too hard and become “helicopter ( 直 升 机 ) parents”—just the opposite of “dropping”. They worry too much about their children and pay attention to everything they do—like helicopters flying over their children. In their eyes, children need to be protected all the time.

But this might not be a good parenting style either, according to American parenting expert Kenneth Ginsburg. As Ginsburg writes, parents should keep a balance (平衡) by “making sure their children don’t crash (碰撞) against the rocks, but allowing them to ride the waves (波浪).”

【1】For Dutch people, “dropping” can help children .

A.learn how to solve problems B.find their homes in forests

C.depend on their parents D.enjoy a summer vacation

【2】Many other parents around the world worried the most about  .

A.good luck B.safety C.grades D.success

【3】Which one of the following pictures can best show “helicopter parents”?

A.A B.B C.C D.D

【4】According to Kenneth Ginsburg, parents should   .

A.find a balance between keeping safe and letting go

B.depend a lot on their children in the future

C.let their children take risks all the time

D.watch their children doing everything

24、

Reid tried to draw a sports car like Peter’s. But no pictures looked good. He hated them and threw them away.

“Is there a secret to being a good artist? ” he felt sad and asked his teacher Mrs. Lee for help. “Yes, of course.” said Mrs. Lee. “Draw that car again. No throwing away. Give it to me when you’ re done. Then do a drawing every day. Don’t worry about how bad the drawings are or throw them away. Hand in one picture to me each day for four weeks. Then I’ll tell you the secret.”

Reid did as the teacher told him.

One day, Reid started to feel like drawing more. “Is it OK to do more than one picture a day?” he asked. “Draw as much as you’d like,” said Mrs. Lee.

Finally, four weeks passed. “It’s time for the secret.” Mrs. Lee said, “But first I want you to do one more drawing.” Reid did. He showed it to Mrs. Lee when he finished. Mrs. Lee smiled and showed him the drawing he did the first day. Reid looked the two pictures. What a difference! The new one wasn’t perfect, but it looked much like Peter’s car.

“What’s the secret?” he asked.

“It’s practice! You drew every day, and look how much better your pictures got. If your work improved this much in four weeks, just think what will happen in three months or a year.”

“Would you hold on to these for another four weeks? I want to keep learning the secret.” said Reid.
