Their full school day and her job as a lawyer’s assistant are busy enough. But Hagner also has to take the two boys to soccer or hockey or basketball while dropping off her daughter at piano lessons or Girl Scout Club. Often, the exhausted family doesn’t get home until 7 pm. There is just time for a quick supper before homework. In today’s world, middle-class American and British parents treat their children as if they are competitors racing for some finishing line. Parents take their children from activity to activity in order to make their future bright. It seems that raising a genius has become a more important goal than raising a happy and well-balanced child. “Doctors across the country are reporting a growing number of children suffering from stomachaches and headaches due to exhaustion and stress, ” says child expert William Doherty of the University of Minnesota. Teachers are dealing with exhausted kids in the classroom. It’s a very serious problem. Many children attend after-school clubs by necessity. But competitive pressures also create an explosion of activities. They include sports, language, music and math classes for children as young as four. “There is a new parenting trend(趋势) under way which says that you have to tap all your child’s potential(潜 能) at a young age; otherwise you will let him down, they will be unhappy, ” says Terry Apter, a Cambridgebased child and adolescent psychiatrist(青少年精神病专家). “It isn’t entirely new: there have always been pushy parents. But what was previously( 以前) seen as strange behaviour is now well accepted. ” 21. From the second paragraph of this passage we can find that ______. A.

Instead, realize that the seeds of success were planted within you when you were born. Only you have the power to make those seeds grow. 　 　 The seeds, and the power to grow them, are contained in the most awesome machine ever created: the human mind. Success is a choice and not a chance. You were born a winner. You were born rich. You can be a success if only you make the right choice. 　 　 You cannot be successful without first developing your self-confidence. Your level of self-confidence is always based on the degree of control that you are able to exercise over yourself, and thus over your life. People with low self-confidence are people who do not believe that they have any power, or responsibility for their lives. They are always victims. They are leaves tossed( 摇 摆 ) by the winds of chance blown about with any sudden change in the weather. 　 　 You can exercise control over your life only to the degree that you believe that you are responsible for whatever happens in your life. Failures think that everything happens by accident while successful people realize that they are responsible. 　　Everything happens as a result of something. If we can identify(确定) the cause, we can control the effect. We are responsible for what we choose to accept and believe. One generally rises to the level that one expects. We are responsible for setting our expectations. Our success depends upon our level of confidence. 　　In all areas of your life, whether they are financial, physical, emotional, or spiritual, you are responsible. Once you recognize this, accept it, and firmly believe it, you are on the road to success. 24. People with low self-confidence are compared to leaves because they______. A. don’t have the power to face their fate B. are ready to change their
