Twenty-five years ago, as a parent educator, I began reading about the dangers of praise. I was completely shocked by what I was learning: praise is not good for kids. How could that be? So I spent years talking with experts, reading about the effects of praise, and finally decided to close the door on praise and focus on building an encouraging family.

Even today, with many studies available to parents, I still hear people say, “How can that be? How can saying …Good job? or …You?re smart? be bad?” I understand. It can be a difficult habit to break.

If we tell a boy “You are smart!” when he brings home an A in his math test, how does he feel when he comes home with a D? If we?ve told him that he is smart, then he will more likely feel a failure when he struggles with homework—“I?m supposed to be smart. Why can?t I do this?”

Praise trains children to depend on constant feedback on what a “great job” they are doing. This dependency damages children?s con fidence. Praise trains children to ask, “Do you like it?” “Did I do a good job?” They begin to believe that what others think is more important than what they think about their achievements and mistakes.

Praise breaks the relationship between parents and children. Without even realizing it, parents may be using praise as a tool to direct the child?s behavior. The message is clear —I approve of you when you ... and I don?t approve of you when you ... Living with this kind of constant judgment damages the relationship.

The solution to the problem of praise is encouragement. Encouragement can be given at any time, to anyone, in any situation. It is a comment, an acknowledgment, a statement that focuses on effort, improvement or choice. Hearing “You are smart!”can leave a child at a loss when they don?t do well. Using “That took a lot of work to come home with an A in your test …” gives a child the chance to be something else.

24. What can be inferred from the first two paragraphs?

A.Many parents can?t get on well with their children.

B. The author never shows any approval to his children.

C.The author spent 25 years changing people?s opinion on praise.

D.It?s hard for many parents to believe praise is harmful.

25. According to the passage, it seems that parents? praise ______.

A.can lead to children?s being smart

B. helps them get along well with their children

C. is a good tool to educate their children

D. might have just the opposite effect

26. Which of the following is a good example of encouragement?

A.You didn?t think you could finish on time, but you did.

B. You are the best artist I have ever seen.

C. You have a problem and you have to fix it.

D. You are very good at math.

27. What can be the best title for the passage?

A. A study on praise and encouragement

B. Mind your words when praising your children

C. Replace praise with your encouragement

D. The difference between praise and encouragement

C

Seventy-three-year-old George McNeilon selected his food in Value Mart very carefully. After leaving the cashier, he calculated that he had saved 80 cents and thought that he had got good value for his money again.

At the exit, the chilly wind reminded him of his gloves. “Where are they?” He searched here and there, but nowhere could he find them. George was sure he was wearing them when he entered the store. It was obvious that they must have been dropped somewhere inside the store.

George bought the gloves at a 25% discount, for just $30, ten years ago. They were genuine lambskin (小羊皮). Until then, he had worn cheaper ones that lasted no more than three years. His impulsive decision to buy the expensive gloves turned out to be a good one, which even promoted his social status on the bus, as passengers stared at him enviously for six months out of the year. He enjoyed being envied.

Bad luck, George thought, to lose his gloves on New Year?s Eve. He, calm on the outside but frantic in the inside, reentered the store. Several minutes of search turned out to be in vain. “Society has changed. People have changed…?? he murmured to himself. “Years ago, if people picked up something lost, they would give it back.”

Back home, George was at a loss. In deep winter, he could not do anything without a pair of gloves.

After the holiday, George decided to buy another pair of leather gloves. Before boarding the subway, he stepped into Value Mart again to see if by any chance his gloves had been returned to the lost and found office.

“What color are they?” the woman in the office asked.

“Black,” he answered.

She looked into he r drawer and drew out a pair of men?s leather gloves.

“Are they?”

“Yes! Those are mine!”

28.What is the most probable reason for George?s shopping?

A. To kill time in Value Mart as usual.

B. To prove how wise he was with money.

C. To prepare for the coming New Year.

D. To see whether there were gloves on sale.

29.Which of the following can best replace the underlined word “frantic” in Para. 4?

A. Ashamed.

B. Anxious.

Then again, teenagers have 1 feelings about their parents, saying that it is not easy living with them.

On the one hand, parents go mad over 3 rooms, clothes thrown on the floor and their children’s refusal to help with the 4 . On the other hand, teenagers lose their patience continually zxxkwhen parents blame them for 5 the towel in the bathroom, not cleaning up their room or refusing to do the shopping at the supermarket. The research, conducted by St. George University, shows that different parents have different 6 to these problems. However, some approaches are more 7 than others. For example, those parents who yell at their children for their untidiness, but 8 clean the room for them, have fewer chances of changing their children’s 9 . On the contrary, those who let teenagers experience the 10 of their actions can do better. For example, when teenagers who don’t help their parents with the shopping don’t find their favorite drink in the refrigerator, they are forced to 11 their actions. Psychologists say that 12 is the most important thing in parent-child relationships. Parents should 13 to their children but at the same time they should lend an ear to what

2017年高考英语试题浙江卷答案

2017年普通高等学校招生统一考试（浙江卷） 英语答案 第一部分听力 1-5 CACBA 6-10 CABCB 11-15 BCABA 16-20 BCACA 第二部分阅读理解 21-25 CDBDA 26-30 CBABC 31-35 DGBAF 第三部分语言运用 36-40 ADABC 41-45 ADDCB 46-50 DBCAC 51-55 BBDCA 第二部分阅读理解 A 【难句分析】While it is likely that he understood very little of the books，they were his introduction to classical paintings． 分析：这是一个复合句。主句是they were his introduction to classical paintings，While it is likely that he understood very little of the books是让步状语从句；that he understood very little of the books是主语从句。 译文：虽然很有可能本杰明对这些书理解甚少，但它们却是他了解古典绘画的入门指导。21．C【解析】根据文章第一段首句“Benjamin West．．．when he was only six years of age” 以及第四段首句“In 1747，when Benjamin was nine years old”和最后一段，并结合全文可知，全文主要讲述了本杰明·韦斯特少年时代的艺术启蒙，故选C项。 22．D【解析】该句需要结合上下文来理解，第二段提到本杰明剪猫的毛来制作画笔，导致猫惨遭“毁毛破相”，而下文又提到本杰明的堂兄Pennington给他送来了颜料和画笔。 由此可以推知，画线句说明“猫的命运得到了改善”，隐含着“本杰明将得到真正的画笔”，故选D项。A项“猫会被密切关注”，文章中并未提及；B项“猫会得到一些药物治疗”，虽然第二段中提到本杰明父亲认为猫病了，但并没有说明它需要治疗；C项“本杰明将很快离开家”，根据下文可知，本杰明只是9岁的时候离开过家，故与语境不符。 23．B【解析】根据文章第五段首句“In the city，Mr．Pennington gave Benjamin materials for creating oil paintings”可知，为了更好地发展本杰明的绘画天赋，堂兄Pennington给了他很多帮助，提供了创作油画的材料，故选B项。
