问题     When we are not engaged in thinking about some specific problem, we usually spend about 95 percent of our time thinking about ourselves. Now, if we stop thinking about ourselves for a while and begin to think of other persons’ good points, things will be quite different.
    One of the most neglected virtues is appreciation. Somehow, we neglect to praise our son or daughter when he or she brings home a good report card, and we fail to encourage our children when they first succeed in baking a cake or building a birdhouse. Nothing pleases children more than this kind of parental interest and approval.
    The next time you enjoy delicious food at a restaurant, send a word to the cook that it is excellently prepared, and when a tired salesperson shows you unusual politeness, please mention it.
    Every minister, every lecturer and every public speaker knows the discouragement of pouring himself or herself out to an audience and not receiving any appreciative comments. What applies to professionals applies doubly to workers in offices, shops and factories and our families and friends. In our interpersonal relations we should never forget that all our associates are human beings and hunger for appreciation. It is the legal tender that all souls enjoy.
    Try to be friendly and appreciative in your daily life, and you’ll be surprised how that will change your life and the world.
The writer criticizes the parents who________.
选项 A、ignore their children’s achievements
B、are not interested in baking a cake
C、set high demands up on their children
D、don’t help out when their kids have difficulties
答案A
解析 根据第二段第二句“Somehow, we neglect to praise our son or daughter when he or she…”可知，当孩子们把优异的成绩单拿回家时，父母会疏忽了表扬他们；当孩子们第一次成功烘焙蛋糕或者搭了一个鸟窝时，父母也没有鼓励他们。而父母的这些行为都是作者不赞同的。由此可推知，作者批评的是忽略孩子成就的父母。故选A。
