问题     When I was about six years old, my mother came home one day and found that I had collected half a dozen babies of the neighborhood-all of them too young to walk-and had them sitting before me on the floor while I was teaching them to wave their arms. When she asked the explanation of this, I informed her that it was my school of dance. She was amused, and placing herself at the piano, she began to play for me. This school continued and became very popular. Later on, little girls of the neighborhood came and their parents paid me a small sum to teach them. This was the beginning of what afterwards proved a very lucrative occupation.
    My mother took me to a very famous ballet teacher, but his lessons did not please me. When the teacher told me to stand on my toes I asked him why, and when he replied " because it is beautiful , " I said that it was ugly and against nature and after the third lesson I left his class, never to return. This stiff and commonplace gymnastics which he called dancing only disturbed my dream. I dreamed of a different dance. I did not know just what it would be, but I was feeling out towards an invisible world into which I guessed I might enter if I found the key.
    My art was already in me when I was a little girl, and it was owing to the heroic and adventurous spirit of my mother that it was not stifled. I believe that whatever the child is going to do in life should begin when it is very young. I wonder how many parents realize that by the so-called education they are giving their children, they are only driving them into the commonplace, and depriving them of any chance of doing anything beautiful or original.
The central idea of the passage is that______.
选项 A、parents should try to discover the natural gift in their children and help to develop it while they are young
B、the so-called good education parents give their children only drives them into the commonplace and deprives them of any chance of doing anything original
C、mothers should be heroic and adventurous
D、ballet is no good as a form of dance
答案A
解析 主旨题。最后一段中, 作者说：I believe that whatever the child is going to do in life should begin when it is very young．文章作者通过以自己的切身经历为例, 讲述了父母要善于发现孩子身上的天赋并在孩子小时候起就加以培养, 这是文章的主题。B选项虽然有在文中提到, 但是从反面说明, 显然没有A选项更适合表达文章的主题, 而且信息也不够充分；C、D选项仅是描述作者自己的经历和看法, 没有概括性。
