Some American parents might think their children need better education to compete with China and other countries’ children. But how much do the parents themselves need to change? A new book called “Battle Hymn of the Tiger Mother”by Amy Chua has caused a debate about cultural differences in parenting. Ms. Chua is a professor at the Yale Law School in New Haven, Connecticut, and a mother of two daughters. She was raised in American Midwest by immigrant Chinese parents.

In the Chinese culture, the tiger represents strength and power. In her book, Ms Chua writes about how she demanded excellence from her daughters. Ms Chua told NBC television that she had a clear list of what her daughters, Sophia and Louisa, were not permitted to do.

Many people criticized Amy Chua. She also admits that her husband, who is not Chinese, sometimes disagreed with her parenting style. But she says that is the way her parents raised her and her three sisters.

Ms. Chua makes fun of her own style of parenting. She says she eased some of the pressure after her younger daughter rebelled and shouted “I hate my life! I hate you!” But she also says American parents often have low expectations of their children’s abilities. One of the biggest differences I see between Western and Chinese parents is that Chinese parents assume strength rather than fragility.”

Stacy DeBroff, who has written four books on parenting, says: “The stirring of this intense debate has to do with what it means to be a successful parent and what does it mean to be a successful child?” Ms DeBroff says Amy Chua’s parenting style is not limited to Chinese families. She says it represents a traditional way of parenting among immigrants seeking a better future for their children. But she also sees a risk. When children have no time to be

social or to follow their own interests, they might not develop other skills that they need to succeed in life. Stacey DeBroff advises parents to develop their own style of parenting and not just repeat the way they were raised.

(C)

You're sitting on the train home and the person opposite you yawns (打哈欠). Suddenly, you're yawning with him, though you're not tired.

This phenomenon confused scientists for years until a recent study found that people tend to sympathize with fellow humans. Supporting this claim was the discovery that those children who were unable to form normal emotional ties with others did not experience contagions (有感染力的) yawning, which showed that humans communicate regularly without words.

Hogo Critchley, a neuroscientist, has conducted an experiment recently, which will prove that happiness and sadness can spread like the common cold. According to Critchley, our mind and body are in constant exchange about how we're feeling. \are closely linked with states of internal (内部的) responses, \changes in our gesture and facial expressions. When we're in a group, these signals can spread to another person. For example, there's the obvious tendency to smile when smiled at and

there are less obvious changes that reflect emotions of surprise, anger or sadness such as a change in our heart rate and blood pressure. \

Hugo Critchley further explained, \bodies synchronize and when we like the other person, we even copy his behavior. Next time you chat with a friend, take note of how you're sitting-it's pretty likely that you will be the same. Scientists believe it's our way of telling each other that we're partners. Through body language, humans give each other very subtle (微妙的) but clear signals that show emotions. \

So, what lessons can we learn from this? \health could suffer, \But when we're happy, our body works normally and we feel relaxed and positive. So we look bright, our skin glows, we feel healthy and it affects everyone around us. \78. According to Hogo Critchley, _________. A. emotions are as visible as facial expressions B. we yawn more frequently when we have a cold C. emotions are connected with states of internal responses

D. the change of blood pressure is not linked with the change of emotions 79. The underlined word \synchronize\ A. move slowly B. change rapidly C. relax temporarily D. respond accordingly

80. From the passage we can learn ______. A. sadness is as contagious as happiness B. anger is less contagious than friendliness C. surprise is more contagious than smile D. surprise is the most contagious among emotions

81. Which of the following statements is true according to the passage? A. Emotions have delicate influence on fellow humans. B. Children like copying the actions of the fellow humans. C. Scientists are still confused about contagious yawning.
