2.There is a scene in the movie The Descendants and it went something like this---George Clooney's character Matt King has a daughter who may be 9or 10.She said something bad to a girl at her school that made her cry.The mother of that girl made Matt and his daughter come to their house to apologize."Sorry,"said his daughter very casually.She was clearly not sorry for her actions and the girl's mother complained she didn't take her apology seriously.Matt shrugged(耸)his shoulders.What was he supposed to do?His daughter apologized as asked.He couldn't make her mean her words.I always think of this story when my daughter is asked by other adults to apologize for her wrong doings.I know my daughter is being taught to say"sorry"with all the best intentions.They are teaching her to be polite.But she is apologizing because she is being forced to please the adult or to avert punishment.
This situation has happened on a few occasions and it really bothers me.Here are three reasons why I don't think it's a good idea to teach children to say sorry:1.My daughter is being taught to say things that are not from her heart.2.She is being taught insincerity(不真诚) is valued over genuineness.3.She is being taught she needs to please others to be loved.
These messages make me uncomfortable and I will not ask my children to apologize.Instead,this is what I think people should teach children:
•teach them behavior that is acceptable and to practice positive behavior.
•teach them how their actions affect others.
•give them space to think about the situation and ask them to suggest ways to make the situation better.
•help them make healthy choices
•lead by example and show them how to fix wrong doings

A.sometimes people don't take their apology seriously
B.The Descendants is a good film that is worth seeing

D.parents should punish their children for their mistakes
22.What does the underlined word"avert"in Paragraph 2mean?B
A.Suffer
B.Avoid
C.Deserve
D.Get

A.doesn't like apologizing to other people.
B.doesn't think apologizing is important to children
C.doesn't think her daughter has done anything wrong
D.thinks forcing a child to apologize has disadvantages
24.According to the last paragraph,the author suggests people shouldC.
A.teach children how to become independent

分析 本文主要是反思我们教育孩子所缺少的东西,建议人们应该好好教育孩子,而不是让他们犯了错误后去道歉.
解答 21-24 CBDC
21 C 考查推理判断.根据第一段 She was clearly not sorry for her actions and the girl's mother complained she didn't take her apology seriously."对不起,"他的女儿很随便地说.她显然不为自己的行为道歉,而女孩的母亲却抱怨说,她没有认真对待自己的道歉.可知强迫孩子道歉没有得到所希望的结果,故选C.
22 B 考查推理判断.根据 But she is apologizing because she is being forced to please the adult or to avert punishment.可知有时候小孩子道歉是为了让大人高兴或是为了逃避惩罚. Avert 是避免.故选B.
23 D 考查细节理解.根据1.My daughter is being taught to say things that are not from her heart.2.She is being taught insincerity(不真诚) is valued over genuineness.3.She is being taught she needs to please others to be loved.1.我的女儿被教导要说的事情,不是从她的心.2.她正在教伪善远大于真实性.3.她在教她需要取悦别人的爱.可知这些都是缺点,故选D.
24.C 考查主旨要义.根据These messages make me uncomfortable and I will not ask my children to apologize.Instead,this is what I think people should teach children:作者建议人们应该好好教育孩子,而不是让他们犯了错误后去道歉.故选C.
