Life really should be one long journey of joy for children born with a world of wealth at their feet.
Internationally famous child doctor Robert Coles is the world’s top expert on the influence of money on children. He has written a well-known book on the subject, The Privileged Ones, and his research shows that too much money in the family can cause as many problems as too little. "Obviously there are certain advantages to being rich", says the 53-year-old doctor, "such as better health, education and future work prospects. But most important is the quality of family life. Money can’t buy love".
It can buy a lot of other things, however, and that’s where the trouble starts. Rich kids have so much to choose from that they often become confused. Over-indulgence(娇养) by their parents can make them that spoilt. They tend to travel more than other children, from home to home and country to country, which causes feelings of restlessness.
"But privileged children do have a better sense of their positions in world", adds Mr. Coles, "and they are more self-assured". The rich children inherit the property from their parents and enjoy a high income. So money will never be one of their problems. "However, they will have a sense of isolation", warns Dr Coles, "and they could suffer from the hardship of not being able to deal with the everyday world because they will never really be given the chance. Everything they have achieved is because of an accident of birth. There can be no tremendous inner satisfaction about that".
Today’s wealthy parents perhaps realize their riches can be more of a heavy load than happiness to their children. So the first thing for them to consider is to ensure that their families are as rich in love as they are in money.
选项
A、there are fewer problems in the rich family than the poor family
B、rich children live a life of separation from the world
C、rich children usually enjoy more love than poor children
D、the quality of rich children’s family life may not be high
答案
D
解析
本题考查的是对文章细节的把握。答案依据文章第二段:his research shows that too much money in the family can cause as many problems as too little.Obviously there are certain advantages to being rich...But most important is the quality of family life.Money can’t buy love."他的研究显示,有钱的家庭可能会比不太有钱的家庭问题更多,很明显,富有会带来一定的优势……但是最重要的是家庭生活的质量,钱买不来爱"。由此可以推断有钱的孩子不一定就是幸福的,他们的生活质量不一定就高。D项符合题意。而A项与his research shows that too much money in the family can cause as many problems as too little相悖,是错误的。B项文章没有提到,C项与文章大意正好相反。
