8.The term"helicopter parents"refers to"a style of parents who are over focused on their children".
Helicopter parents are always making a big push to provide children with every opportunity to succeed,from baby steps at age 1,homework at age 8,college application at age 18,employment issues at age 25to family problems at age 30,40 or even older.They constantly shadow the child,always directing his behavior,allowing him zero alone time.
Helicopter parenting can develop for a number of reasons.Worries about the economy,the job market,and the world in general can push parents toward taking more control over their child's life in an attempt to protect them.Adults who felt unloved or ignored as children can overcompensate with their own children.When parents see other overinvolved parents,it can cause a similar response.They feel that if they don't involve themselves in their children's lives,they are bad parents.
The main problem with helicopter parenting is that it can backfire.To give an example,the house where Mary lived with roommates was broken into and things were stolen.Mary called the landlord(房東)to install an alarm system,but before she could finish the negotiations(協(xié)商),her mother rushed in and demanded action."I felt like my mother ruined my communication with our landlord.We could have gotten it done ourselves.She was well intended but only made me feel annoyed and defeated,"says Mary.
Obviously,overparenting is motivated with the idea of doing good things but it does the exact opposite.In the long run parents are actually damaging their child's basic skills to deal with matters independently.It makes the child feel lacking in confidence,less competent in dealing with the stresses of life on their own.They're winning the battle,but actually losing the war.

分析 文章主要講述了家長教育孩子的一些方法方式.
解答 29.A推理判斷題.根據(jù)第二段第一句Helicopter parents are always making a big push to provide children with every opportunity to succeed,from baby steps at age 1,homework at age 8,college application at age 18,employment issues at age 25 to family problems at age 30,40 or even older.可知,直升機(jī)式家長總是盡力地為孩子提供成功機(jī)會(huì).由此可推知,直升機(jī)式家長過分管教孩子的目的是為孩子做些有幫助的事.
30.D 細(xì)節(jié)理解題.根據(jù)最后一段第二句In the long run parents are actually damaging their child's basic skills to deal with matters independently.可知,從長遠(yuǎn)來看,直升機(jī)式家長對孩子的過渡管教會(huì)對孩子造成巨大傷害.
31.B 推理判斷題.最后一段最后一句句意為:直升機(jī)式家長可能贏了某場戰(zhàn)役,但實(shí)際上輸了一場戰(zhàn)爭.由此可推知,下一段的內(nèi)容應(yīng)該是勸說家長不要做直升機(jī)式家長.
32.D觀點(diǎn)態(tài)度題.根據(jù)最后一段It makes the child feel lacking in confidence,less competent in dealing with the stresses of life on their own.They're winning the battle,but actually losing the war.
可知,家長對孩子的過度管教會(huì)對孩子的生活造成傷害,讓孩子失去自信,失去處理生活壓力的能力.由此可推知,作者不贊同對孩子進(jìn)行直升機(jī)式管理.
點(diǎn)評 本文是一個(gè)科教類閱讀理解,題目涉及多道細(xì)節(jié)理解題,做題時(shí)結(jié)合原文和題目有針對性的找出相關(guān)語句進(jìn)行仔細(xì)分析,結(jié)合選項(xiàng)選出正確答案.推理判斷題也是要在抓住關(guān)鍵句子的基礎(chǔ)上合理的分析才能得出正確答案,切忌胡亂猜測,一定要做到有理有據(jù).
