Children are children after all, and most of them speak their mind. When they are just toddlers（幼儿）, no matter how naughty or rude they are, we think it is amusing to watch them speak like a grown-up. But as they grow, these same kids seem annoying and ill-mannered if they try to sound grown-up.

Conflicts often appear between parents and children. Reasoning does not seem to work with them．It's hard to tell who are right and who are wrong. A child of 7-8 always finds some reasons to have a conflict with his parents. Whether it is about some toys, studies, basic affairs, parties or friends, there is always a difference in opinions between them. And it becomes worse when they answer you back. Psychologists say that children should be handled with care. Yes, sure they should be but not at the cost of disrespecting their elders.

We are partly responsible for this situation. At an early age we encourage

grown-up-like behaviour, just because we find it amusing. The kids on the other hand consider this same behavior as normal and get used to it. And when it is not funny for us any more, we expect them to stop it, but by then it is already too late. Only when they reach a certain maturity will the children realize that answering back and being rude are not acceptable. Until then, most of the time their behavior is difficult to change, unless by force. And the use of force is again not a very good idea, as it weakens the child's confidence.

Thus this brings us to the conclusion that it is one thing to bring a child into this world but quite another to make them into well mannered citizens. The best way is to be a good example ourselves, as our children are a reflection of us adults. 25.Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?

A. It is annoying to watch children speak like a grown-up.

B. We should deal with children carefully according to psychologists. C. We are totally responsible for our kids’ impolite behaviour. D. Most of the time children’s behaviour is easy to change.

26.What's the main idea of the second paragraph?

A. There are usually conflicts of opinions between parents and children. B. Children would like toys better than their parents. C. Children always look down upon their parents.

D. It’s strange for children and parents to disagree with each other.

27.Which of the following is part of the reason for the present situation of the children?

A. Children always think their parents’ opinions are wrong. B. Parents often try to change their children by force. C. Parents give too much loose to children. D. Children are often asked to follow their parents.

28. What does the underlined sentence in the last paragraph probably mean?

A. It is important that we teach children how to behave well and bring them into

the world.

B. It is important to bring a child into the world safe and sound. C. We should try to make a child follow the elders.

D. We should train children to be good citizens with good manners. C
