Bringing a giraffe into the world is a tall order. A baby giraffe is born 10 feet high and usually lands on its back. Within seconds it rolls over its legs under its body. Then the mother giraffe rudely introduces its children to the reality(现实) of life.
In his book, A View from the Zoo, Gary Richmond describes how a new-born giraffe learns its first lesson.
The mother giraffe lowers her head long enough to take a quick look. Then she puts herself directly over her child. She waits for about a minute, and then she does the most unreasonable(不合情理的) thing. She throws her long leg and kicks her baby, so that it’s sent sprawling(四脚朝天).
When it doesn’t get up, the process is repeated again and again. The struggle to rise is important. As the baby giraffe grows tired, the mother kicks it again. Finally, it stands for the first time on its shaky(摇晃的) legs. Then the mother giraffe kicks it off its feet again. Why? She wants it to remember how it got up. In the wild, a baby giraffe must be able to get up as quickly as possible to stay with its group, where there’s safety.
Another writer named Irving Stone understood this. He spent a lifetime studying greatness, writing stories about such men as Michelangelo, Vincent van Gogh, Sigmund Freud, and Charles Darwin.
Stone was once asked if he had found something that runs through the lives of all these great people. He said, “I write about people who sometime in their life have a dream of something. They’re beaten over the head, knocked down and for years they get nowhere. But every time they stand up again. And at the end of their lives they’ve realized some small parts of what they set out(着手) to do .”

　　We've had the Tiger Mom, the Wolf Dad, now we have the Eagle Dad. The
Eagle Dad is a man from Nanjing who uploaded a video of his four-year-old son
running through the snow and cold of New York's central Park. The boy was
dressed only in pants and sneakers. And the video shows the boy crying, his skin
bright red from the cold.
　　The man was very proud of the video and his treatment of the boy. He said
that, just like the eagle, a parent should be tough on his child. He said hardship
and suffering would make the child strong and successful. I suppose the Tiger
Mom would agree. She said that punishment was one way to make the child work
harder. And the Wolf Dad would certainly agree. He said that beating a child
was a good way to make the child successful in school.
　　Many people, of course disagree. They say that people who treat their
children the same way that some animals treat their young are close to
criminality. The fact that many people also agree with those kinds of parents
shows that they are confused (困惑) about how to raise children properly.
　　All parents love their children and want to do what is best for them. But
tough love may not be the best way for all children. The better way for the Eagle
Dad is to take some of his feathers and use them to keep his child warm.
1. Where is the Eagle Dad from?

2. What was his son doing in the video?

4. Who would agree with the Eagle Dad's treatment of the children?

     Raising pets is a popular online game among reenagers. " More than 20 of my classmates have
adopted (领养) pets online, while last year the number was just 10," said Wang Hui, a middle school
student from Beijing, who also raises pets online.
     If you go to some websites,  you can adopt virtual (虚拟的) pets like penguins, chickens, dogs and
elephants. You can feed, wash, talk to and play with your pet.

means spending a lot of time online.
     This makes many parents worried. They fear there will be bad influence on the children's studies.
     Dai said that she usually asks her uncle to take care of her pet, while she is at school.
     Wang Zhaotong, from Anhui, has been raising a penguin on QQ.com since last year. The 14-year-old

　　　 In 1985 I visited China.I thought many Chinese parents put much pressure on only high school students.But in the following years, I found the pressure came to primary school children, then those of pre?school age, and finally newborn babies and pre?born children.

In order to succeed, one or two years before entering kindergarten (幼稚园) they must study English, drawing, singing, and dancing, and the three years of kindergarten are mostly spent to build up an early lead in primary school performance.

What if parents let their 3 or 4 years old child enjoy free time on Saturday and Sunday, after five days in nur?sery? They would be thought to be wasting their kid's early life.As others do, so must they do.

　　　 Yet children have not only the right, but the need to play.Kindergartens should not be a school.There should be no classroom, no lesson, no homework, and especially no exams.Instead, playing should be the first thing for children.　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　

They need to play with others and also to play on their own, as playing is good for learning in a lively way. Children can discover numbers while playing games and the alphabet (字母表) through songs.Some Chinese cha?racters can become familiar to them by being used in games.But the problem with kindergartens is very serious.Chinese parents think studying is more important.Children work hard while having less and less time to play.What these parents fail to realize is that they are following the examples of how not to raise a kid.

　　 A.kids don't want to play　 　　　　B.they have to do what other people do

(　　)8.According to the author, what should a kindergarten be like?
