问题     "It hurts me more than you." and "This is for your own good." These are the statements my mother used to make years ago when I had to learn Latin, clean my room, stay home and do homework.
    That was before we entered the permissive period in education in which we decided it was all right not to push our children to achieve their best in school. The schools and educators made it easy on us. They taught that it was all right to be parents who took a let-alone policy. We stopped making our children do homework. We gave them calculators, turned on the television, left the teaching to teachers and went on vacation.
    Now, teachers, faced with children who have been developing at their own pace for the past 15 years, are realizing we’ve made a terrible mistake. One such teacher is Sharon Klompus who says of her students—"so passive"—and wonders what happened. Nothing was demanded of them, she believes.
    Television says Klompus contributes to children’s passivity. "We’re not training kids to work any more," says Klompus, "We’re talking about a generation of kids who’ve never been hurt or hungry. They have learned somebody will always do it for them. Instead of saying ’go look it up’, you tell them the answer. It takes greater energy to say no to a kid. "
    Yes, it does. It takes energy and it takes work. It’s time for parents to end their vacation and come back to work. It’s time to take the car away, to turn the TV off, to tell them it hurts you more than them, but it’s for their own good. It’s time to start telling them no again.
How does Sharon Klompus describe her students?

选项 A、They like to work out problems themselves.
B、It is easy for them to get hurt and angry.
C、They often make silly mistake.
D、They are lazy and spoiled.

答案D

解析 文章第三段讲到克伦普斯对她学生的评价时提到她的学生“很被动……我们不再训练我们的孩子工作……他们知道总有人会帮他们做的……”这一切都说明这些孩子懒惰,而且被宠坏了。
