24、 My 11-year-old daughter has been offered an academic scholarship (奖学金) to a private school. It's only a small discount (折扣), but the scholarship means she is accepted by the school which my husband and I need to pay $ 20,000 a year for. Should we pay the private school cost, or choose free education instead?
It was really a hard decision for us to make. For me, I always wanted my children to go to a private school, like I did. Not because my family is rich, but because I believe that the best education is private. It took years for me to make peace with the fact that my two children attended our local public primary school. “They'll go to a private high school.” I told myself.
But the fact is that my eldest is now in her last year of primary school, and my husband and I will find our way to afford the private school. If so, I could increase my work hours. My law degree was supposed to be my ticket to a good job and a good pay, but that was just our wishes, not the fact.
During many sleepless nights, I felt troubled by the decision. Although I want the best for my daughter, I have my own dreams too. I can't give up everything for my baby girl. I explain that I want to be a positive (积极的) role model for my daughter, and an unhappy parent is a terrible strain on a family. I point out that even the best private school won’t protect my children from disappointment or hard work. And finally, it's decided.
Because I understand it's my family that shaped me instead of my great private school education. I can no longer remember the maths problems and what Shakespeare said which I once knew so perfectly. The lessons from my family, however, have turned out to be impossible to forget.
【1】The scholarship her daughter has won means that ________.
A.she is good at sports B.the family is full of love
C.she is accepted by that private school D.they don’t have to pay for the school
【2】The underlined word strain in Paragraph 3 means ________.
A.愤怒 B.安慰 C.负担 D.解脱
【3】According to the passage, which of the following is TRUE?
A.The writer had a good job with a good pay.
B.It took a long time for her to make the final decision.
C.Her two children attended their local private primary school.
D.The scholarship her daughter won could cover all of her school cost.
【4】We can infer from the passage that ________.
A.the daughter will go to a public high school
B.private schools provide better education than public schools
C.the writer wanted her daughter to receive the best education
D.her daughter’s talent was wasted at the public primary school
25、Fairy tale(童话) fiction or not?
One hot debate topic from I Can I Bibi (《奇葩说》) has become popular on Weibo: Should parents tell their children that fairy tales are fake(假的)? Some people think we shouldn’t. Fairy tales give kids hope and teach life lessons. But others think that children need the ability to distinguish (区分) real from fake, and this role is best played by their parents. What’s your opinion?
YES
Hu Enqi, 16
There is no doubt that the world of fairy tales is beautiful, but the real world is cruel (残酷的). If children are always deep in fairy tales, they might not adjust(调节) themselves to society. That’s why there are so many “giant babies” in society. It is parents’ duty to tell children that beauty and darkness are coexistent(共存的). They need to be stronger to adapt to (适应) society.
Li Ziyi, 16
It’s important to tell kids the wisdom in fairy tales, not whether or not they’re fake. If I’m a parent, I will tell my kids: “Dear, the Queen’s poisoned apple is fake, but in our daily lives, fake apples may be many other seductions (诱惑) that you need to be careful of.” Fairy tales can never solve all problems. After all, dangers are always present in both fairy tales and reality (现实).
NO
Yuan Siyi, 16
Not every fairy tale is fake — they’re from our lives. The essence (本质) of fairy tales is to teach children the most basic truths based on the real world. The content of fairy tales is not meaningless. Parents could look on them as partners to children when they grow up. Children will understand the truth step by step.
Hu Pei, 16
As a kid bathed in fairy tales, I don’t want to be told that they are fake. Fairy tales get kids to read, help shape their world outlook, encourage their imaginations and give them entertainment. Even if parents tell the kids the cruel reality, they may miss the point. Instead, they may be filled with fear of the future and the world, which is not our purpose.
【1】According to the passage, “the giant babies” are ___________.
A.those babies who can’t grow up
B.those babies who are big in shape
C.those adults who can adapt to society well
D.those adults who can’t distinguish real from fake
【2】According to Li Ziyi, ___________.
A.we shouldn’t tell children fairy tales are fake
B.some fairy tales have wisdom while others don’t
C.there are many dangers in different shapes in reality
D.“poisoned apples” needn’t be afraid of because they are fake
【3】From the passage, we can know _________.
A.in fairy tales everything is beautiful and good
B.fairy tales can give kids hope and teach life lessons
C.fairy tales have nothing to do with the real world
D.fairy tales mainly need to tell kids cruelty of reality
