Social science has weighed in on the "tiger mom" debate, and it looks like everyone is right: Both over-protective and laid-back mothers can raise successful children.
Three years after Yale law professor Amy Chua’s controversial article, "Why Chinese Mothers Are Superior," in the Wall Street Journal, Stanford researchers Alyssa Fu and Hazel Markus have published a study examining the effectiveness of the【C1】________, high-pressure parenting Chua【C2】________and the more relaxing style【C3】________in European-American culture.
They found both parenting styles can be【C4】________; the key is in how the child views his or her relationship with the mother. In Asian-American culture, children are often expected to rely on their families,【C5】________traditionally European-American families【C6】________value and encourage independence. Parental pressure【C7】________different reactions in each culture: Asian-American students said they felt like parent involvement in their lives is a form of support, while European-American children【C8】________the pressure to perform.
"These findings underline the importance of understanding cultural【C9】________. in how people interpret themselves and their relationships to others," the researchers wrote. "European-American mothers who assume that achievement is an individual project may be right to believe that too much involvement can【C10】________motivation. Tiger Mothers who assume that achievement is a group project may be equally right to【C11】________that parental involvement is【C12】________for motivation."
The researchers evaluated these two different parenting【C13】________by analyzing the connections between children’s motivation and their mothers. Across the studies, Asian-American students saw more【C14】________between themselves and their mothers and were more accepting of their mothers’ involvement in their lives. These students viewed pressure from their mothers【C15】________and said it motivated them in times of【C16】________. European-American students, on the other hand, reported feeling more independent from their mothers and seeing pressure to succeed【C17】________a lack of support rather than a source of motivation.
Parents might take some comfort knowing that,【C18】________Chua’s battle cries for stricter childrearing, it looks like parenting isn’t quite so clear-cut. And dissatisfied white kids can【C19】________, too: They now have the social science to【C20】________ignoring their mothers.
【C20】
选项
A、interpret
B、observe
C、afford
D、justify
答案
D
解析
空格所在句在冒号后,对前面的句子作进一步解释。虽然“不理会母亲”(ignoring their mothers)是不正确的做法,但孩子却敢于这么做,原因是有“社会科学”帮忙,故选D项justify“证明……有理”。A项interpret“解释”和B项observe“观察”都不能表达出孩子利用社会科学为自己行为辩护的意义。C项afford“提供”,与空格后的宾语无法搭配。
