The lives of children from rich and poor American families look more different than ever before. Well-off families are ruled by calendars, according to a new Pew Research Center survey. There are usually two parents, who spend a lot of time reading to children and worrying about their anxiety levels and hectic schedules. In poor families, meanwhile, children are more likely to grow up in neighborhoods that their parents say aren’t great for raising children, and their parents worry about them getting shot, beaten up or in trouble with the law.
The class differences in child rearing are growing, researchers say—a symptom of widening inequality with far-reaching consequences. Different upbringings set children on different paths and can deepen socioeconomic divisions, especially because education is strongly linked to earnings. Children grow up learning the skills to succeed in their socioeconomic stratum, but not necessarily others.
American parents want similar things for their children, the Pew report and past research have found: for them to be healthy and happy, honest and ethical, caring and compassionate. There is no best parenting style or philosophy, researchers say, and across income groups, 92 percent of parents say they are doing a good job at raising their children. Yet they are doing it quite differently. Middle-class and higher-income parents see their children as projects in need of careful cultivation, says Annette Lareau. They try to develop their skills through close supervision and organized activities, and teach children to question authority figures and navigate elite institutions. Working-class parents, meanwhile, believe their children will naturally thrive, and give them far greater independence and time for free play. They are taught to be compliant and deferential to adults.
There are benefits to both approaches. Working-class children are happier, more independent, while less complaint and are closer with family members, Ms. Lareau found. Higher-income children are more likely to declare boredom and expect their parents to solve their problems. Yet later on, the more affluent children end up in college and enroute to the middle class, while working-class children tend to struggle. Children from higher-income families are likely to have the skills to navigate bureaucracies and succeed in schools and workplaces, Ms. Lareau said.
Which of the following about growing class difference in children’ s growth environment is TRUE?
选项
A、It is a symbol of aggravating unfairness.
B、It can narrow socioeconomic divisions.
C、It makes children receive similar education.
D、It doesn’t have direct influences on children.
答案
A
解析
细节题。根据题干关键词定位到文章第二段首句The class difference sin child rearing are growing, researchers say—a symptom of…A项symbol of aggravating unfairness是该句symptom of widening in equality的同义替换,故正确。B项“缩小社会经济的差距”与原文deepen socioeconomic divisions意思相反。C项并不能直接在文中找到相关信息,但通过especially because education is strongly linked to earnings,Children grow up learning the skills to succeed in their socioeconomic stratum, but not necessarily others可推断出“不同环境下的孩子将接受不同的教育”,故该项错误。同时,第二段总体上都在讲述阶级差异对社会和孩子的影响,D项所表达的意思与之相悖,可排除。故本题选A。
