It has never been easier t cheat than it is tday. With all the technlgy available, students needn’t cheat by lking ver their shulders anymre. They use mbile phnes t send answers t each ther during a test. There is als their Internet. With hundreds f websites, students dn’t have t wrry because they can find lts f materials which they can cpy and use in prjects. There are even tips n the art f cheating in exams.
Of curse, if yu get caught cheating, yu fail the exam r the subject. But it desn’t really matter whether yu get caught r nt. What’s imprtant is that it’s wrng. Yu mustn’t cheat because cheating is a lie. It deceives peple int thinking yu knw mre than yu actually d. Hw can yu be prud f smething yu have achieved thrugh cheating?

Phrases like “tiger mm” and “helicpter parent” have made their way int everyday language. Many f us find urselves drawn t the idea that with just a bit mre parental wrk and effrt, we might turn ut children with bright futures. But is there anything wrng with a kind f “ver-parenting style”?
Parental invlvement has a lng histry f being studied. Many f the studies, cnducted by Diana Baumrind, a famus psychlgist at the University f Califrnia, Berkeley, have fund that a gd parent is the ne wh is invlved and reacts t her child in a psitive way, wh sets high expectatins but gives her child independence. These “authritative (有权威的) parents” appear t hit the sweet spt f parental invlvement and generally raise children wh d better academically, psychlgically and scially than children whse parents are nt strict and less invlved, r cntrlling and mre invlved. Why is this parenting style s successful?
Authritative parents actually help imprve mtivatin in their children. Carl Dweck, a scial psychlgist at Stanfrd University, has dne research that indicates why authritative parents raise mre mtivated children. In a typical experiment, Dr. Dweck takes yung children int a rm and asks them t slve a simple puzzle. Mst d s with little difficulty. But then Dr. Dweck tells sme, but nt all, f the kids hw clever they are. As it turns ut, the children wh are nt tld they are smart are mre mtivated t slve increasingly difficult puzzles. They als shw higher levels f cnfidence and shw greater prgress in puzzle-slving.
As the experiment suggests, praising children’s talents and abilities seems t shake their cnfidence. Dealing with mre difficult puzzles carries the risk f lsing ne’s status as “smart”. Dr. Sweck’s wrk strngly supprts that Dr. Baumrind, wh als fund that reasnably supprting a child’s independence and limiting interference (干扰) causes better academic and emtinal results.
The central task f grwing up is t develp a sense f self that is independent and cnfident. If yu treat yur yung child wh is just learning t walk as if she can’t walk, yu reduce her cnfidence. Allwing children t make mistakes is ne f the greatest challenges f parenting. It is easier when they are yung. The ptential mistakes carry greater risks, and part f being a parent is reducing risk fr ur children.
39. Frm the passage, it is inferred that cntrlling style f parenting may ______.
A. face mre challenges f children B. cause mre prblems in children
C. increase independence in children D. lead t children’s academic success
40. The last paragraph shws us that ______.
A. parents shuldn’t give children much freedm
B. parents shuldn’t increase the risk f challenging
C. children shuld crrect mistakes with their parents
D. parents shuld allw children t learn frm mistakes
41. Which is prbably the best title f this passage?
A. Mtivatin in Children. B. Being Authritative Parents
C. Parental Invlvement D. OK, Tiger Mm Helps

Phrases like “tiger mm” and “helicpter parent” have made their way int everyday language. Many f us find urselves drawn t the idea that with just a bit mre parental wrk and effrt, we might turn ut children with bright futures. But is there anything wrng with a kind f “ver-parenting style”?
Parental invlvement has a lng histry f being studied. Many f the studies, cnducted by Diana Baumrind, a famus psychlgist at the University f Califrnia, Berkeley, have fund that a gd parent is the ne wh is invlved and reacts t her child in a psitive way, wh sets high expectatins but gives her child independence. These “authritative (有权威的) parents” appear t hit the sweet spt f parental invlvement and generally raise children wh d better academically, psychlgically and scially than children whse parents are nt strict and less invlved, r cntrlling and mre invlved. Why is this parenting style s successful?
Authritative parents actually help imprve mtivatin in their children. Carl Dweck, a scial psychlgist at Stanfrd University, has dne research that indicates why authritative parents raise mre mtivated children. In a typical experiment, Dr. Dweck takes yung children int a rm and asks them t slve a simple puzzle. Mst d s with little difficulty. But then Dr. Dweck tells sme, but nt all, f the kids hw clever they are. As it turns ut, the children wh are nt tld they are smart are mre mtivated t slve increasingly difficult puzzles. They als shw higher levels f cnfidence and shw greater prgress in puzzle-slving.
As the experiment suggests, praising children’s talents and abilities seems t shake their cnfidence. Dealing with mre difficult puzzles carries the risk f lsing ne’s status as “smart”. Dr. Sweck’s wrk strngly supprts that Dr. Baumrind, wh als fund that reasnably supprting a child’s independence and limiting interference (干扰) causes better academic and emtinal results.
The central task f grwing up is t develp a sense f self that is independent and cnfident. If yu treat yur yung child wh is just learning t walk as if she can’t walk, yu reduce her cnfidence. Allwing children t make mistakes is ne f the greatest challenges f parenting. It is easier when they are yung. The ptential mistakes carry greater risks, and part f being a parent is reducing risk fr ur children.
39. Frm the passage, it is inferred that cntrlling style f parenting may ______.
A. face mre challenges f children B. cause mre prblems in children
C. increase independence in children D. lead t children’s academic success
40. The last paragraph shws us that ______.
A. parents shuldn’t give children much freedm
B. parents shuldn’t increase the risk f challenging
C. children shuld crrect mistakes with their parents
D. parents shuld allw children t learn frm mistakes
41. Which is prbably the best title f this passage?
A. Mtivatin in Children. B. Being Authritative Parents
C. Parental Invlvement D. OK, Tiger Mm Helps
