3.Training./Helping./Teaching./Instructing.

5.Yes,theydo.Theycareaboutmyschoolresultsandspendalotofmoneyonmyafter-classtutoring.

【解析】

本文为一篇议论文，作者描述J'目前中国存在的父母非常重视孩子的教育这一现象，并说明「其背

后的原因，表达了自己的观点。

考查主旨大意。根据第一段"NowadaysinChina,parentscareabouttheirchildren'seducationmorethan

anythingelse.”(如今在中国,父母最关心孩子的教育。)及“Itseemsasifabettereducationisallthat

parentsexpectfortheirchildren.^^(似乎更好的教育是父母对孩子的全部期望。)可知，本文描述了目

前中国存在的父母非常重视孩子的教育这一现象。故答案为Ittellsusparentspaymuchattentionto

theirchildren'seducationinChina.

2.

考查细节理解。根据第二段"Firstofall,theswiftdevelopmentofChina'seconomyiscallingformoreand

moreskilledandknowledgeableworkersandprofessionals.^^（首先，中国经济的快速发展需要越来越多

的有技能和知识的工人和专业人员。）可知，有技能和知识的工人需求量越来越大是因为中国经济的

高速发展。故答案为BecauseChina'seconomyisdevelopingswiftly./Becauseoftheswiftdevelopment

ofChina'seconomy.

3.

考查词义猜测。根据第一段“thosewhohavenotimeorarenotabletodoithavetutorshiredfortheir

children.Manyhavetheirchildrensenttoafter-classschools."（那些没有时间或没有能力做家务的人会

为他们的孩子聘请家教。许多人把孩子送到课外学校。）可知，在中国，父母十分关注孩子的教育，

他们花很多金钱辅导孩子学习。因此，coaching是“指导、教导、教授、帮助”的意思，与

training/helping/teaching/instructing意思相近。故答案为Training./Helping./Teaching./Instructing.

4.

考查细节理解。根据第三段"However,theyshouldnotgotoofartoignoretheirchildren'sabilitiesand

personalqualities.n（然而，他们不应该过分忽视孩子的能力和个人素质。）及力fparentscantrytheir

besttohelpbuildtheirchildren'scharacters,itwillbringahappylifetotheirchildrenwhentheygrowup.”

（如果父母能尽他们最大的努力帮助他们的孩子建立性格，当他们长大，这会给他们的孩子带来幸

福的生活。）可知，在作者的观点中，除了技能和知识，孩子的能力，个人素质以及性格特征都是很

重要的。故答案为Children'sabilitiesandpersonalqualities,characters.

5.

开放性题目。问句句意：你
