C
What should I eat for breakfast? Who should I go out with on weekends? What should I do if I miss the bus to school? What colleges should I apply for? Again and again Chinese kids ask these questions to their teachers and parents. They can’t make their own choices.
Kids in America would be very surprised to hear how much Chinese children depend on adults. When they are ten years old, kids decide what clothes they want to wear and buy. By twelve they know what classes to take for middle school. Thirteen years old is the beginning of being what Americans call a “teenager”. Now the child is up to almost all his / her decisions. Finally at sixteen the kid usually gets a car from his / her parents.
Why should kids be independent? Think about it. After high school most of us will be by ourselves. Will our parents be able to tell us what to eat for breakfast in college? Can our teachers decide what we should do at work?
Making our own choices can be quite hard and scary. But we can start with making small choices, and then slowly make bigger and more important choices.
64. The first paragraph is written to tell the readers that Chinese kids ______.
A. don’t know what to do                B. always have many questions
C. believe in their teachers and parents     D. depend on adults too much
65. At what age can an American kid make most decisions by himself or herself?
A. Ten.                 B. Twelve.          C. Thirteen.           D. Sixteen.
66. Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?
A. American kids are more independent than Chinese kids.
B. American kids will more easily adapt themselves to society.
C. American parents don’t care for their children.
D. A sixteen American youngster can drive his / her own car.
67. In the writer’s eyes, ______.
A. dependence on adults is shameful in China
B. independence from adults is worth encouraging
C. kids have no ability to make a real choice
D. making decisions is rather easy


64--67   DCCB  

解析64. D。第一段主要講了中國(guó)的孩子對(duì)成年人的依賴(lài)性太強(qiáng)。
65. C。根據(jù)第二段中的“Now the child is up to almost all his / her decisions.”可知。
66. C。美國(guó)的父母并非不關(guān)心孩子。和中國(guó)的父母相比，他們更重視對(duì)孩子的 獨(dú)立能力的培養(yǎng)。
67. B。從文章后兩段可以看出作者是鼓勵(lì)孩子獨(dú)立的。

I was ten when I first sat with my grandmother behind the cashier（收銀臺(tái)）in her general store.       1.         I quickly learned the importance of treating customers politely and saying “thank you.”

At first I was paid in candy.        2.        I worked every day after school, and during the summer and on weekends and holidays from 8 a.m. to 7 p.m. My father helped me set up a bank account.     3. By the time I was 12, my grandmother thought I had done such a good job that she promoted me to selling cosmetics（化妝品）. I developed the ability to look customers directly in the eye. Even though I was just a kid, women would ask me such things as “What color do you think I sho uld wear?” I took a real interest in their questions and was able to translate what they wanted into make-up ideas.    4.       .

The job taught me a valuable lesson: to be a successful salesperson, you didn’t need to be a Rocket scientist—you needed to be a great listener.     5.      and expect they are no longer women purchasing cosmetics from me; instead, they are kids who tell me which toys they would like to see designed and developed.

A. Later I received 50 cents an hour.

B. Before long, she let me sit there by myself.

C. I ended up selling a record amount of cosmetics.

D. Today I still carry that lesson with me: I listen to customers

E. My grandma’s trust taught me how to handle responsibility.

F. Soon I found myself looking more beautiful than ever before.

G. Watching my money grow was more rewarding than anything I could have bought.
