Question

As a child grows out of being an infant and begins to notice and react to the world around him, you may find yourself wondering how you possibly impart all of the things that he needs to become a responsible, respectful adult.   1.      A child who learns to respect all he meets not only receives respect from others, but also learns to respect himself as well.

Show your child respect. This is perhaps the best way to teach your child how to

respect others. Listen to your child by giving him your full attention and he will learn to listen to you, understanding how important this is in communication.

     2.    The more you say “please” and “thank you” to your child, the more likely

he will learn to use them with you and others. Politeness then becomes a normal part of any conversation.

Agree to disagree.     3.   Explain your decision so that he will understand your

reasoning and expect respectful responses. Disagreeing with you doesn’t equate to disobedience.

Control your impulse to overact. When a situation arises between you and your

child that requires calmness, keep in mind that you are supposed to be modelling correct behaviour.   4.     

Praise, praise, praise! So much is focused on what a child does wrong and how to

correct it that the accomplishments are not celebrated enough.     5.   

A. Teach manners by using polite requests and responses.

B. Try to remember that a child won’t always agree with you.

C. Respect is necessary for a meaningful and successful life.

D. If he sees you lose temper, he is more likely to respond that way in future.

E. A child may act like he pleases, but will respect being given limits.

F. When you see your child exhibit respectful behaviour, make sure he knows just how proud you are of him.

G. Setting a good example is the best way to start a child on the path to respect.

試題分析：本文講述的是如何教育我們的孩子學會尊敬他人，給出了一些具體的建議。在答題中，應首先略讀一下短文，了解一下短文的大致意思，然后把幾個選項含義理解透，尤其注意意思相近，表達有交叉的選項之間的區別。然后再細讀短文，把答案填入合適位置。答題時可以把含義相近的幾個選項輪流填入同一處位置，反復閱讀，反復體會，找出最佳選項，對于實在沒有把握的小題可以留待最后完成。完成短文后，再認真通讀一遍全文，看看上下語意是否通順，是否符合邏輯關系。

1.C 根據前句中的become a responsible, respectful adult.以及橫線后一句的A child who learns to respect說明這里討論的都是尊敬在生活中的重要作用。故C項符合上下文。

2.A 根據下句The more you say “please” and “thank you”可知這里的“please” and “thank you”都是一些禮貌的表示尊敬的用語。故A符合上下文。

3.B 本段的標題是Agree to disagree.也就是說要學會接受孩子的反對。B項內容“孩子不會總是同意你的意見”與之吻合。

4.D 根據前句keep in mind that you are supposed to be modelling correct behaviour可知你的一些好的行為也許會被模仿，那么D項“如果我們發脾氣，孩子看見了，他們以后也會模仿這樣的行為”。符合上下文。

5.F 本段的中心思想是Praise, praise, praise!也就是說要表揚孩子的優秀之處，F項中告訴孩子為他們感到自豪是符合上下文的。
