32、School was over and I was tired. I sat at the front of the school bus. Janie, the driver, always tries to break the uncomfortable atmosphere by talking. I try to listen politely, but usually Im too busy thinking about my day. On this day, however, her talk was worth listening to. "My fathers il

33、l," she said to no one in particular. I could see worry in her eyes. I had never seen her like this before. She always meets students with a smile. With a sudden chance of interest, I asked, "Whats wrong with him?" With her eyes wet and her voice unusual, she answered, "Heart tro

34、uble. " Her eyes lowered as she continued, "Ive already lost my mum, so I dont think I can stand losing him." I couldnt answer. My heart ached for her. I sat on the seat thinking of the great pain my own mother was thrown into when her father died. I saw how hard it was, and still is,

35、 for her. I wouldnt want anyone to go through that. Suddenly I realized Janie wasnt only a bus driver, which was just her job. She had a whole world of family and cares too. I shouldnt have been so selfish. I paid no attention to Janie because she was a bus driver. I had judged her by her job and br

36、ushed her off as unimportant. I shouldnt have been so selfish and self-centered. Understanding people is an art. 60. When the students get on the school bus, Janie usually_.

39、CPerhaps a parents most important contribution toward raising a trustful child is to develop a relationship founded on trust. A child of any age will feel proud and grown-up if parents frequently show their trust. In court a defendant被告 is innocent until proved guilty. But in the family, a teenager

40、“defendant is too often assumed guilty.Even when the child is caught in a complete lie, this should not be the end of trust. A parent can tell a child that a single lie is forgivable. Yet it should be clear that if lies continue, the child, like the boy who cried wolf, will suffer loss of trust.When

41、 my wife and I discovered that our son Tom, then 13, had lied about throwing a party while we were away, we grounded him for a month. We also told Tom that we could no longer trust him, and we could not allow him to stay alone overnight again. This loss of freedom was an important lesson; he learned

42、 how hard it is to live with people when they dont trust him. As a result, now more than three years later we can again trust Tom to stay alone overnight.Parents must always remember there is no easy answer to this universal problem of lying. We can set a good example, allow for privacy, monitor fri

43、endship, develop trust and punish wrong doing, but still we discover our child has lied to us. Finally thats why there is a need for trust on both sides of a parent-child relationship. Lying destroys closeness and friendship. For that reason, parents should always try to give a child the feeling tha

44、t they can be trusted with the truth. Parents may start with a childs trust, but as the child grows older, parents must earn it.64When the writer and his wife discovered that their son had lied, they _.Atook him from all his freedom Bdecided that they could never trust him againCforbade him to stay

45、alone overnight for more than three yearsDarranged for him to live with people who do not trust him for more than three years65We can infer from the passage that very often _.Aparents dont trust their child as they shouldBdefendants are usually proved not guilty in courtCparents have too much trust

46、in their child Dsome children are founded guilty in court66According to the passage, the writer believes that _.Aparents shouldnt punish their children even if they lieBit is not easy to deal with the problem of lying as parents Cthere are many effective ways to prevent children from lyingDa child w
