Perhaps a parent’s most important contribution toward raising a trustful child is to develop a relationship founded on trust. A child of any age will feel proud and grown-up if parents frequently show their trust. In court a defendant(被告) is innocent until proved guilty. But in the family, a teenager “defendant” is too often assumed guilty.

Even when the child is caught in a complete lie, this should not be the end of trust. A parent can tell a child that a single lie is forgivable. Yet it should be clear that if lies continue, the child, like the boy who cried wolf, will suffer loss of trust.

When my wife and I discovered that our son Tom, then 13, had lied about throwing a party while we were away, we grounded him for a month. We also told Tom that we could no longer trust him, and we could not allow him to stay alone overnight again. This loss of freedom was an important lesson; he learned how hard it is to live with people when they don’t trust him. As a result, now more than three years later we can again trust Tom to stay alone overnight.

Parents must always remember there is no easy answer to this universal problem of lying. We can set a good example, allow for privacy, monitor friendship, develop trust and punish wrong doing, but still we discover our child has lied to us. Finally that’s why there is a need for trust on both sides of a parent-child relationship. Lying destroys closeness and friendship. For that reason, parents should always try to give a child the feeling that they can be trusted with the truth. Parents may start with a child’s trust, but as the child grows older, parents must earn it.

When the writer and his wife discovered that their son had lied, they _________.

A. took all his freedom from him

B. decided never to trust him again

C. forbade him to stay alone overnight

D. arranged him to stay at home.

We can infer from the passage that very often ________.

A. parents don’t trust their child as they should

B. defendants are usually proved not guilty in court

C. parents have too much trust in their child

D. some children are founded guilty in court

According to the passage, the writer believes that _____________.

A. parents shouldn’t punish their children even if they lie

B. it is not easy to deal with the problem of lying as parents

C. there are effective ways to prevent children from lying

One day an earthquake rocked the mountain,  22  one of the eggs to roll down the mountain  23  a chicken farm, which was in the valley below. The chickens knew that they must  24  and care for the eagle’s egg, so an old hen   25  to hatch and raise the large egg.

    One day, the egg hatched and a beautiful eagle was born.  26  , however, the eagle was raised to be a(n)  27  . Soon, the eagle believed he was 28  more than a chicken. The eagle loved his home and family,  29  his spirit cried out for more. While playing a game on the farm one day, the eagle looked to the skies above and  30  a group of eagles soaring(翱翔) in the skies. “Oh,” the eagle  31  , “I wish I could soar like those birds.” The chickens shouted with32  , “You cannot soar with those birds. You are a chicken and chickens do not soar.”

    The eagle  33  staring at his real family up above,  34  that he could be with them. Each time the eagle would let his  35  be known, he was told it couldn’t be done.
