Should parents ever hit their children?

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 75 percent to nearly 90 percent of parents admit to 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 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 （脾气）．But I still believe that the best parents are the ones who are able to offer fair and firm discipline without ever turning to physical punishment．

1.According to the first three paragraphs, the author was probably hit by her parents when____________.

A．they were dissatisfied with her grade

B．she showed no respect for the elder

C．they cannot control their temper

D．their discipline turns out to be not strict enough

2.According to Murray Straus, children who are physically punished ______．

A．are less aggressive toward others when they get older

B．have slower physical development

C．benefit from occasional spanking

D．may develop lower IQs than their peer

3.Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the article?

A．40 percent of children grow up without ever being spanked

B．Children who suffer less physical punishment are better students

C．Occasional open-handed spanking on the bottom are mentally harmful

D．Researchers disagree over whether smacking is mentally harmful to children

Career success could be predicted as early as kindergarten, according to a 20-year study recently published in the American Journal of Public Health.

Researchers from Pennsylvania State University and Duke University tracked more than 700 children from across the US between kindergarten and age 25 and found a significant correlation（相关性）between their social skills as kindergartners and their success as adults two decades later.

In 1991, teachers assessed how the kindergartners interacted(互动) with each other socially using a range of criteria like whether they cooperate with their peers without prompting（激励）, if they're helpful to others, whether they're good at understanding feelings, and if they can solve problems on their own.

Researchers then kept track of whether the students went on to graduate high school on time, get a college degree, and find and keep a full-time job by 25. They also monitored the participants' involvement with crime, drug abuse, public assistance, and mental health issues.

The results showed that socially competent（有能力的）children were far more likely to earn a college degree and have a full-time job by 25 than those with limited social skills. Those with limited social skills also had a higher chance of getting arrested, binge（放纵）drinking, and applying for public housing.

“This study shows that helping children develop social and emotional skills is one of the most important things we can do to prepare them for a healthy future," said Kristin Schubert, program director at the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation, which funded the research, in a release.

“From an early age, these skills can determine whether a child goes to college or prison, and whether they end up employed or addicted." The good news, according to Damon Jones, lead author of the study, is that intervention（干预）at a young age can help improve social and emotional skills. “This research by itself doesn't prove that higher social competence can lead to better outcomes later on," he said. “But when combined with other research, it is clear that helping children develop these skills increases their chances of success in school, work, and life."

A. Most kindergartners can solve problems alone.

Ammie Reddick from East Kilbride, Lanarkshire, was only 18 months old when she had the accident that had scarred(留下创伤) her for life. The curious child reached up to grab the wire of a hot kettle in the family kitchen and poured boiling water over her tiny body.

Her mother Ruby turned round and, seeing Ammie horribly burnt, called an ambulance which rushed her daughter to a nearby hospital. Twenty percent of Ammie’s body had been burned and all of her burns were third-degree. There, using tissue(组织) taken from unburned areas of Ammie’s body, doctors performed complex skin transplants（移植） to close her wounds and control her injuries, an operation that took about six hours. Over the next 16 years, Ammie underwent 12 more operations to repair her body.

When she started school at Maxwelton Primary at age 4, other pupils made cruel comments or simply wouldn’t play with her. “I was the only burned child in the street, the class and the school,” she recalled, “some children refused to become friends because of that.”

Today, aged 17, Ammie can only ever remember being a burned person with scars; pain is a permanent part of her body. She still has to have two further skin transplants. Yet she is a confident, outgoing teenager who offers inspiration and hope to other young burned victims.

She is a member of the Scottish Burned Children’s Club, a charity set up last year. This month, Ammie will be joining the younger children at the Graffham Water Center in Cambridgeshire for the charity’s first summer camp. “I’ll show them how to get rid of unkind stares from others,” she says. Ammie loves wearing fashionable sleeveless tops, and she plans to show the youngsters at the summer camp that they can too. “I do not go to great lengths to hide my burns scars,” she says, “I gave up wondering how other people would react years ago.”

1.How many operations has Ammie already had?

A. Twelve B. Thirteen

C. fourteen D. Fifteen

2.What did other children do when Ammie first went to school?

A. They were friendly to her.

B. They showed sympathy to her.

C. They were afraid of her.

D. They looked down upon her.

3.Ammie will teach the younger children at the Graffham Water Center to___________.

A. face others’ unkindness bravely

B. hide their scars by proper dressing

C. live a normal life

D. recover quickly

4.Which of the following words can’t properly describe Ammie?

A. Courageous B. Confident

C. Sensitive D. Outgoing

5.What can be the best title of the passage?

A. A Seriously Burned Girl Survives

B. Ways to Get Rid of Unkind Stares

C. Permanent Scars And Pain For a Girl

D. A Seriously Burned Angel of Hope
