ATim is a 16-year-old boy who studies in a high school. His parents tell him to study hard and they do everything for him.

I think there are three big differences between the Chinese and Western parental mind-sets.First, I’ve noticed that western parents are quite worried about their children’s self-esteem(自尊心). In other words, Western parents care about their children’s psyches(心灵). Chinese parents don’t. They found that they are strong, not frail(脆弱的), and as a result they behave very differently.Secondly, Chinese parents believe that their kids should thank them for everything. The reason for this is a little unclear, but maybe it’s because of Chinese traditional customs(中国传统习俗) and the fact that the parents have done so much for their children.Third, Chinese parents believe that they know what is best for their children. So they don’t care about their children.Don’t get me wrong: It’s not that Chinese parents don’t care about their children. Just the opposite. They would give up anything for their children. It’s just an entirely different parenting model(养育模式).6. According to the passage, how many differences between Chinese parents and Western parents?A. Only one.B. Two.C. Three.D. Four.7. What do Western parents worry about their children?A. Self-esteem.B. Psyches.C. Grades.D. A and B.8. Do Chinese parents care about their children’s psyches?A. Yes, they do.B. No, they don’t.C. Not clearly.D. Not mentioned.9. Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?A. Western parents are quite worried about their children’s self-esteem.B. Chinese parents believe that their kids should thank them for everything.C. Chinese parents believe that they don’t know what is best for their children.D. Chinese parents would give up anything for their children.10. Do Chinese parents care about their children?A. Of course.B. Not really.C. The writer thinks they don’t.D. We don’t know.四、选词填空。
