is very busy. Their school days are busy
enough. After school, though, Cathy takes
the two boys from football to basketball.
Then she has to take her daughter to piano
lessons. The tired children don’t get home
until 7 pm. They have a quick supper, and
it’s time for homework.生活对于Cathy Taylor的三个孩子来说是
非常忙碌的。这些疲倦的孩子们要到晚上7点才得到家。null The Taylors are like many American
and British parents. They take their children
from activity to activity, and try to fit as
much as possible into their kids’ lives. Doctors
say many children are under too much
pressure. Teachers complain about teaching
tired kids in the classroom.在繁重的压力下nullThey take their children from activity to activity, and try to fit as much as possible into their kids’ lives. 他们带孩子参加各种活动,设法尽可能地融入到孩子的生活中去。
(1) fit into意为“适合;适应”。如:
I get much too fatter, so I can’t fit into my clothes.
我太胖,所以我的衣服穿不上了。
(2) as ... as possible意为“尽可能……”。如:
Please speak English as much as possible every
day. 每天尽可能多地讲英语。 null Most children take part in after-school
clubs. Activities include sports, language
learning, music, and math classes. Pushy
parents are nothing new, but now parents
seem to push their children a lot more.
Parents see other children doing a lot of
things, and they feel their own children
should do the same. 固执的家长们没有新的变化, 但是更多的家长
把孩子们推向这些压力之下。null Linda Miller, a mother of three in London, knows all about such pressure.“In some families, competition starts from a very young age,” she says. “Mothers send their kids to all kinds of classes when they are very young. And they are always comparing them with other children.
It’s crazy. People shouldn’t push their kids so hard.” 他们总是拿自己的孩子与其他的孩子做比较。null Dr Alice Green agrees. She also says
that these children may find it hard to think
for themselves when they are older. “Parents
are trying to plan their kids’ lives for them.
When these kids are adults, they might find
it difficult to plan things for themselves.”这些孩子们就会发现当他们长大后要自己思考问题是多么困难的事.家长们总是尽力为他们的孩子们

事情。但是当孩子们成年后就会发现自己计划事情很困难.nullParents should learn to give their kids a bit
more time to themselves. On the one hand,
children need organized activities. On the
other hand, they also need time and freedom
to relax, and they need time to do things by
themselves.nullSection 3 After You ReadIs the situation the same in China?American and British children do many
after- school activities.
Many children are under pressure.
Parents these days push their children
much harder than before.
Competition between families starts at a
young age.
Children should have free time to relax.null3b Write four sentences using one of the words from 1b in each sentence.null3c You are Dr Alice Green. Write a letter to Cathy Taylor. Give advice about what she should do with her children.nullDear Cathy,
