2.There is a problem discussed by people about whether parents should hit their children?Or should they ever beat them?Research suggests many of us are likely to respond"no",and public support for spanking (打屁股) has been falling over the years.But surveys also show that 75percent to nearly 90percent of parents admit spanking their child at least once.
I was raised in a zero-tolerance home for disrespect,and my parents often turned to physical punishment.And,no,I don't feel I was damaged by it.
Nothing is more annoying than watching ill-mannered behavior from children.
But there is data to suggest that a return to old-school spanking isn't the answer.
Two years ago,Newsweek reported that it had found data suggesting that teens whose parents used physical punishment were more likely to become aggressive.
Murray Straus,professor at the University of New Hampshire in America,has studied the topic of children and spanking for decades.He said that children who were physically punished have lower IQs than their peers.It may be that children with lower IQs were more likely to get spanked,but the punishment may have been counterproductive (反作用的) to their mental development,as well.
Some researchers make the argument that occasional open-handed smacks (用巴掌打) on the bottom are not only harmless but can have some benefit.
Last year,Marjorie Gunnoe,a psychologist at Calvin College,studied teens who have never been spanked.There are a greater number of children growing up without ever having been physically punished.Gunnoe's research suggests they don't turn out any better than those who were sometimes spanked.
There are some parents who simply cannot control their tempers.But I still believe that the best parents are the ones who are able to offer fair and firm discipline (纪律) without ever turning to physical punishment.

分析 这是一篇议论文.文中主要谈到了父母对孩子的体罚问题,文中重点讲述了体罚对于孩子成长的一些负面影响.作者认为好的父母应该用一种公平理性的方式来约束他们的孩子.
解答 21.B.推理判断题.根据第三段"I was raised in a zero-tolerance home for disrespect,and my parents often turned to physical punishment.And,no,I don't feel I was damaged by it."我是在一个对无礼零容忍的家庭中被养育长大的,并且我的父母经常借助于体罚.然而,我没有感到我被这种行为毁掉.由此可知,作者小时候可能因为无礼,被父母打过.故选B.
22.C.细节理解题.根据倒数第四段中的句子"Murray Straus,professor at the University of New Hampshire in America,has studied the topic of children and spanking for decades.He said that children who were physically punished have lower IQs than their peers."可知Murray Straus认为经常被打屁股的孩子的智商比同龄人较低.故选C.
