题目内容
Ted, my little brother, is in Grade One. Last Friday he came back from school with a letter. The letter was from his teacher. "I got a red flower today. Could you please sign签字 this note?" he said to Mum. The note showed that he had been talking in class.
Ted hardly gets top scores in his school work. The best he gets is "OK", but often he gets "You can do better than this." Mum knows what it means. She tells me "You can do better than thi
s" means "Extremely bad" in China.
In the USA, teachers never say anything too bad about their students, even if the students are making trouble in class or not working hard enough. The worst they might say is "Please be nicer tomorrow". Many parents are satisfied with对---满意 a B-grade for each subject.
But things in Chinese schools are quite different. Parents have high expectations for their children. I sometimes felt that my second-grade cousin spent more time on homework than I did when I was a 6th grader in the USA! Yet his parents and teachers didn't think he worked hard enough.
Is it too strict in China? Or is it not strict enough in the USA? Maybe both are true.

【解析】
试题分析：短文介绍了美国的教育依靠学生的自觉性与自主性。同时又介绍了中国的教育特点，家长对孩子的要求严格，并且学校给学生的作业量上也是较大的。
1.上写着，他已经在课堂上说话了。结合上文得知，他在学校做了错事，那就是在课堂乱说话。故选B
2.泰德几乎得不了很高的成绩在他的学校学习。他得到最好的评语是“OK”。联系下文，因为他的表现不好，所以他经常得到的是“你能做的比这次好。”因此体现当学生在学校成绩中等的时候，评语为OK.故选 B
3.
4.high expectations for their children.句意：但是，事情在中国的学校有很大的不同。父母对孩子有很高的期望。同时结合实际情况，中国的父母对孩子的期望很高。因此划线部分为很高有期望。故选C
5.
