【题目】阅读理解

阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项。

I am a strong believer that if a child is raised with approval (认可) he learns to love himself and will be successful in his own way.

Several weeks ago, I was doing homework with my son in the third grade and he kept standing up from his chair. I kept asking him to sit down, telling him that he would concentrate (集中注意力) better. He sat but seconds later, as if he didn’t even notice he was doing it, he got up again. I was getting angry, but then it hit me: I started noticing his answers were much quicker and right when he stood up. Could he concentrate better while standing up?

This made me start questioning myself and what I had been raised to believe. I grew up to believe that a quiet child was more likely to succeed. This child would have the ability to study hard, get good grades and become someone important in life. Kids that were active and loud would only be losers.

Now people perhaps come to realize that their kids are born with their own sets of DNA, and all they can do is loving and accepting them. As parents, throughout their growing years and beyond that, we need to guide them and help them find their way.

I have stopped asking my son to sit down and concentrate. Clearly, he is concentrating, just in his own way and not mine. We need to accept our kids, and heir ways of doing things. There is nothing sweeter than seeing our children being themselves. It makes us happy and that’s just the way I want my kids to live a happy life.

Answer 1

【答案】

【1】D

【2】B

【3】D

【4】B

【解析】

通过讲述其儿子与作者在学习方式上的不同，本文告诉我们不同的人有不同的学习方式，要因材施教。

【1】D 推理判断题。根据第二段第二句可知，作者不断地要求儿子坐下来，并告诉他要更集中注意力于学习。这是因为作者一直认为坐着的时候注意力更集中。故D正确。

【2】B 推理判断题。根据第二段倒数第二句可知，作者注意到，当儿子站着的时候，他的答案更准确，更快。所以作者开始怀疑自己之前的想法，再根据第三段前两句可知，作者质疑自己认为安静的孩子更可能成功的想法。这些都说明作者怀疑之前的教育方法了。故B正确。

【3】D 推理判断题。根据最后一段二、三句可知，每个孩子都有自己不同的特点，我们要因材施教，不能使用同样的方法来教育不同的孩子。故D正确。

【4】B 细节理解题。根据最后一段二、三句可知，孩子们都有自己的特点和行为风格。故B正确。
