Voice Your Opinion: Change is Needed in Youth Sports

Everywhere you look, you see kids bouncing a basketball or waving a tennis racquet (网球拍).And these kids are getting younger and younger In some countries, children can compete on basket-ball, baseball, and volleyball teams starting at age nine. _ (46) And swimming and gymnasticsclasses begin at age four, to prepare children for competition. It&39;s true that a few of these kids will de-velop into highly skilled athletes and may even become members of the national Olympic teams. _ (47) This emphasis on competition in sports is having serious negative effects.

Children who get involved in competitive sports at a young age often grow tired of their sport.Many parents pressure their kids to choose one sport and devote all their time to it. _ (48) But 66 percent of the young athletes wanted to play more than one sport for fun. Another problem is the pressure imposed by over-competitive parents and coaches. Children are not naturally competitive. In fact, a recent study by Paulo David found that most children don&39;t even understand the idea of compe-tition until they are seven years old. _ (49) The third, and biggest, problem for young athletes is the lack of time to do their homework, have fun, be with friends-in short, time to be kids. When they are forced to spend every afternoon at sports practice, they often start to hate their chosen sport. A researcher&39;s found that 70 percent of kids who take part in competitive sports before the age of twelve quit before they turn eighteen. _ (50) Excessive competitiveness took away all the en- joyment.

Need to remember the purpose of youth sports-to give kids a chance to have developing strong, healthy bodies.

Sharon Keating was worried about her kids when she got a divorce. Her daughter says, "I wa
s feeling... like down and sad and even though I did't really show it."

Judith Wallerstein says problems from divorce can last many years. They can show up when the kids are adults. And the kids have their own trouble. Wallerstein studied 93 children over a generation. The results can be found in her book.

She says that children of divorce are more likely to have problems with drugs. They are far more likely to seek therapy. About 40 percent of them avoid marriage themselves. When they do marry, fail at nearly twice the usual rate. It is hard for them to trust. They are afraid of failing.

Critics say Wallerstein had too few children in her study. They think that Wallerstein stresses too much from a small study. Other things may be the cause of the kid's problems. The study does not compare kids from divorced families with kids from "healthy" families.

Wallerstein's families divorced a generation ago. Times have changed. People feel different a bout divorce. Today programs like Kid's Turn try to reduce some of the effects of divorce with family advice. Talking about their feelings helps the kids get through it. Since they know more about the problems, maybe the kids will be able to handle it.

Which word can best describe the kids from divorced families according to Paragraph 1?

A.Offensive.

B.Relieved

C.Depressed

D.Prejudiced

&8226;Read the article below about Hikikomori.&8226;Choose the best sentence to fill in ea

&8226;Read the article below about Hikikomori.

&8226;Choose the best sentence to fill in each of the gaps.

&8226;For each gap 8-12,mark one letter(A-G)on your Answer Sheet.

&8226;Do not use any letter more than once.

&8226;There is an example at the beginning(0).

Hikikomori has become a major issue in Japan. Loosely translated as "social withdrawal," Hikikomori refers to the state of anomie into which an increasing number of young Japanese seem to fall these days. Socially withdrawn kids typically lock themselves in their bedrooms and refuse to have any contact with the outside world.

They live in reverse: they sleep all day, wake up in the evening and stay up all night watching television or playing video games.

(8) Their funk can last for months, even years in extreme cases. No official statistics are available, but it is estimated that more than one million young Japanese suffer from the affliction. One such young man was the protagonist of my latest novel, Symbiosis Worm.

Hikikomori is a consequence of the phenomenal growth of the Japanese economy during the latter half of the 20th century and the tremendous technological progress the country made during that time. Japanese youth could not afford to be socially withdrawn if their parents were not affluent enough to provide them a home, meals and extras that have come to be thought of as basics--audio and video equipment, software, mobile phones, computers. (9)

Affluent Japanese do not know what kind of lifestyle. to take up now. (10) "Socially withdrawn" people find it extremely painful to communicate with the outside world, and thus they turn to the tools that bring virtual reality into their closed rooms. (11) The country has to accept that World War II ended long ago--and so did the glory days of national restoration and economic growth. We don't need the state to come up with an alternative national goal. Instead Japan should develop into a society in which each member is able to set his or her own aims. That's not easy, but not impossible. If the culture cannot adjust and drowns in a tsunami of technology. (12)

A Some own computers or mobile phones, but most have few or no friends.

B Socially withdrawn kids typically lock themselves in their bedrooms and refuse to have any contact with the outside world.

C Japan, on the other hand, must face reality itself.

D Great changes in a country's social structure have always caused stresses.

E That uncertainty has pulled people further apart and caused a whole raft of social problems. Hikikomori is naturally one of them.

F Japan will end up sinking even deeper into a labyrinth of confusion.

G And there are plenty of newer technological devices for these youths to pursue.

One of the central principles of raising kids in America is that parents should be activel
y involved in their childrens education: meeting with teachers, volunteering at school, helping with homework, and doing a hundred other things that few working parents have time for. These obligations are so baked into American values that few parents stop to ask whether theyre worth the effort. Until this January, few researchers did, either. In the largest-ever study of how parental involvement affects academic achievement, Keith Robinson and Angel L. Harris, two sociology professors at Duke, found that mostly it doesnt. The researchers combed through nearly three decades worth of surveys of American parents and tracked 63 different measures of parental participation in kids academic lives, from helping them with homework, to talking with them about college plans. In an attempt to show whether the kids of more-involved parents improved over time, the researchers indexed these measures to childrens academic performance, including test scores in reading and math. What they found surprised them. Most measurable forms of parental involvement seem to yield few academic dividends for kids, or even to backfire(适得其反)— regardless of a parents race, class, or level of education. Do you review your daughters homework every night? Robinson and Harriss data show that this wont help her score higher on standardized tests. Once kids enter middle school, parental help with homework can actually bring test scores down, an effect Robinson says could be caused by the fact that many parents may have forgotten, or never truly understood, the material their children learn in school. While Robinson and Harris largely disproved that assumption, they did find a handful of habits that make a difference, such as reading aloud to young kids(fewer than half of whom are read to daily)and talking with teenagers about college plans. But these interventions dont take place at school or in the presence of teachers, where policy makers have the most influence — they take place at home. Comment 1: Basically the choice is whether one wants to let kids to be kids. Persistent parental involvement and constantly communicating to the kids on what the parents want consciously or unconsciously would help the kids grow up or think like the parents sooner than otherwise. Comment 2: It also depends on the kid. Emotional and social maturity have a lot to do with success in college and in life. Some kids may have the brains and are bored by high school, but that doesnt mean they are ready for college or the work place. Comment 3: The article doesnt clearly define " helping" , but I understood it as actually assisting children in the exercises(e. g. helping them to solve a math problem)and/or reviewing their work for accuracy rather than simply making sure theyve completed their work. I think the latter is more helpful than the former. I would also certainly hope that no study would discourage parents from monitoring their childrens performance!

The word "they"(Para. 1)refers to______.

A.values

B.obligations

C.studies

D.principles

第9题

The kids are hanging out. I pass small bands of students, in my way to work these mornings
. They have become a familiar part of the summer landscape.

These kids are not old enough for jobs. Nor are they rich enough for camp. They are school children without school. The calendar called the school year ran out on them a few weeks ago. Once supervised by teachers and principals, they now appear to be "self care'.

Passing them is like passing through a time zone. For much of our history, after all, Americans arranged the school year around the needs of work and family. In 19th century cities, schools were open seven or eight hours a day, 11 months a year. In rural America, the year was arranged around the growing season. Now, only S percent of families follow the agricultural model, but nearly all schools are scheduled as if our children went home early to milk the cows and took months off to work the crops. Now, three-quarters of the mothers of school-age children work, but the calendar is written as if they were home waiting for the school bus.

The six-hour day, the 180-day school year is regarded as something holy. But when parents work an eight-hour day and a 240-day year, it means something different. It means that many kids go home to empty houses. It means that, in the summer, they hang out.

"We have a huge mismatch between the school calendar and realities of family life," says Dr. Ernest Boyer, head of the Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching.

Dr. Boyer is one of many who believe that a radical revision of the school calendar is inevitable. "School, whether we like it or not, is educational. It always has been."

His is not a popular idea. Schools are routinely burdened with the job of solving all our social problems. Can they be asked to meet the needs of our work and family lives?

It may be easier to promote a longer school year on its educational merits and, indeed, the educational case is compelling. Despite the complaints and studies about our kids' lack of learning, the United State still has a shorter school year than any industrial nation. In most of Europe, the school year is 220 days. In Japan, it is 240 days long. While classroom time alone doesn't produce a well-educated child, learning takes time and more learning takes more time. The long summers of forgetting take a toll.

The opposition to a longer school year comes from families that want to and can provide other experiences for their children. It comes from teachers. It comes from tradition. And surely from kids. But the most important part of the conflict has been over the money.

Which of the following is an opinion of the author's?

A.The kids are hanging out.

B.They are school children without school.

C.These kids are not old enough for jobs.

D.The calendar called the school year ran out on them a few weeks ago.
