Parents have widely different views on the problem of pocket money. Four new fathers were asked this question and this is how they answered.
Ashish Khanna: Although many argue that pocket money helps develop children’s sense of value, I don’t agree. I wouldn’t give my child any pocket money. First of all, I never got pocket money and I seem to have a good value for money. If my child ever needed something and I felt it was a reasonable (合理的) request, I would buy it for him.
Sharad Sanghi: No, I wouldn’t give my child pocket money because I don’t want to create the perception (觀念) of “her” money and “my” money. Besides, if I refuse to buy her something that I think is bad for her, she may buy it with her pocket money on the sly. In this way, I would lose control over my child’s requests. I feel it also encourages children to care more about money than anything else. I don’t want my child to start judging other children by the amount of money or pocket money they have.
Rakesh Shah: Yes, I would give my child pocket money because I feel that children should learn to spend money properly. I will give him a fixed amount every month and if he spends the money before the month is over, he will learn a lesson and not spend money so freely. He will learn what his limitations (限制) are and feel the difficulty when he has to pay for something that is over his own pocket.
Rajiv Patel: Yes, I would give my child pocket money because it is important that he learns to manage money. But I would not give it to him on a weekly or monthly basis. He would have to earn it. If he helped me finish some of my jobs or helped his mother with housework, I would reward him. This helps him realize that “money does not grow on trees” and it requires hard work to earn money.
【小題1】Ashish Khanna may agree that _____.
| A．he was given too much pocket money when young |
| B．he can take much control of his child by money |
| C．he will buy anything he thinks his child really needs |
| D．pocket money helps children develop a good value for money |
| A．for free | B．a(chǎn)t a lower price |
| C．happily | D．secretly |
| A．Ashish Khanna. | B．Sharad Sanghi. |
| C．Rakesh Shah. | D．Rajiv Patel. |
| A．They want their children to learn to manage money from an early age. |
| B．They ask their children to get pocket money by working. |
| C．They teach their children the difficulty of making money. |
| D．They allow their children to spend money freely. |
【小題1】C
【小題2】D
【小題3】C
【小題4】A
解析試題分析：文章介紹了四個新的父親對于孩子零花錢的態(tài)度和觀點。
【小題1】C 細節(jié)題。根據(jù)第二段最后一句If my child ever needed something and I felt it was a reasonable (合理的) request, I would buy it for him. 說明他會給孩子買他認為孩子需要的東西，故C正確。
【小題2】D 推理題。根據(jù)本句, if I refuse to buy her something that I think is bad for her, she may buy it with her pocket money on the sly.說明如果我不給他買，他會偷偷地用自己的零用錢來買，故on the sly指偷偷地，故D正確。
【小題3】C 細節(jié)題。根據(jù)第四段1,2行I would give my child pocket money because I feel that children should learn to spend money properly.說明Rakesh Shah.他會給孩子零花錢。
【小題4】A 細節(jié)題。根據(jù)第四段第二行I feel that children should learn to spend money properly.和第五段第二行it is important that he learns to manage money.說明這兩個人都想通過給孩子零花錢來讓孩子學(xué)會自己管理錢，故A正確。
考點：考查教育類閱讀

I really hadn’t meant to yell at them. But that grey afternoon saw it just as my son and daughter were making a terrible mess on the floor in the kitchen.
With a tiresome report to write, I felt bothered at my desk. Suddenly, it occurred to me that my kids were at fault. A voice inside me insisted that I do something quickly.
“Ok, you two here, but what an awful thing you are attempting!” I was shouting angrily. I made for them, while it became evident that the boy wanted no part of me. “Get away from us!” he shouted back, there being an expression of support from his sister.
All of a sudden, I found the fault in myself. Quickly I shaped my hands into pincers(鉗子) and crawled towards them, “Crabby（暴躁的） Daddy is here. Ha, Ha, Ha, he likes to yell at children, and then eat them!” My son continued to keep me away, but now he was laughing and crying at the same time. My mission to repair the damage caused by my yelling seemed to work well. Still, I regretted not having controlled myself first in a right way.
Need I let them know how badly they were acting by blaming? This is a lesson that serves myself. It only shows just how to get rid of something (ill-feelings, responsibility…) by blaming others. It’s not my “best self”.
We have to search for our “best self” when with our children. They don’t need perfect parents, but they do need parents who are always trying to get better. Here, I am reminded of the words of a great thinker. “When a man lives with God, his voice shall be as sweet as the murmur of the book…” Then, in our lifetime, couldn’t we always speak to our kids in such a sweet voice since most of us consider them as the most precious in the world? And before we reach this level, what should we do when we come across various difficult cases with our children?
The author couldn’t help yelling at his kids this time probably because________.
A. the weather was so unpleasant B. he was tired of his boring work
C. the kids didn’t ask him to join them D. a Daddy has his right to do so
Which of the following made the author aware of his fault?
A. No obvious reason.
B. The boy’s yelling back.
C. His self-awareness.
D. The girl’s shouting back
According to the passage, the author will _____ in another similar situation.
A. play a crab again like this time
B. apologize to kids in a sincere way
C. avoid blaming kids in a hurry
D. beat them up about such things
What will the writer go on to write about in the next paragraph(s)?
A. How to behave ourselves properly when kids are at fault.
B. How to play with our children in a more interesting way.
C. How to deal with the housework with children around us.
D. How to persuade children to do what they are told to.
What does “the boy wanted no part of me” in the third paragraph mean?
A. The boy was happy because I loved them.
B. The boy was curious because I wanted to help them.
C. The boy was very happy for I was angry.
D. The boy didn’t want me to join them.
