问题    "Helicopter parenting" describes a style of raising children where parents are over-protective and do too much. The term was used for the first time in the late 1960s. It describes parents who watch over their kids like a helicopter. Today, modem technology allows these helicopter parents to watch over from even far away. They can give their children directions at any moment from anywhere.
   Author Julie Lythcott-Haims wrote a book titled How to Raise An Adult. In her book, she gives readers a closer look at this parenting style.
   " Over-parenting," she says, " comes in three types: the first is the over-protective parents who think the world is scary and unsafe and unpredictable. And therefore, I must protect and prevent them from this. The second type is the over-directive type—the parent who says, I know best what leads to success and you will do as I say. You’ll study these topics, do these activities and you will be highly achieving at all of it. The third type is the concierge(看门人)—the parent who just wants to make life smoother—from waking their kid up, to keeping track of their deadlines, to making sure they haven’t forgotten anything, to even doing the homework for the kid. "
   Julie Lythcott-Haims says she experienced the effects of helicopter parenting first-hand when she worked as dean of first-year students at Stanford University. The incoming students were very smart and accomplished on papers. But many were unable to take care of themselves.
   " They were turning to parents constantly for guidance, for problem-solving, to have them make the choice about something. " Often times, Lythcott-Haims had to remind those parents that their kids were old enough to take care of themselves.
Lythcott-Haims’ attitude towards helicopter parenting is______.
选项 A、supportive
B、negative
C、uninterested
D、unclear
答案B
解析 从文章第四段讲到在斯坦福大学的经历可以看出，Julie Lythcott-Haims 认为这些孩子生活自理能力太差，最后一段又提到有时她不得不提醒父母，他们的孩 子已经长大，可以照顾自己了。由此可推知，她是不赞同这种养育方式的，所以她对 这种养育方式的态度应该是否定的。故选B。
