3、stions 8-10, complete the sentences with the information given in the passage.Helicopter Moms vs. Free-Range KidsWould you let your fourth-grader ride public transportation without an adult? Probably not. Still, when Lenore Skenazy, a columnist for the New York Sun, wrote about letting her son take

4、the subway alone to get back to Long story short :my son got home from a department store on the Upper East Side, she didnt expect to get hit with a wave of criticism from readers.“Long story short: My son got home, overjoyed with independence, Skenazy wrote on April 4 in the New York Sun. “Long sto

5、ry longer: Half the people Ive told this episode to now want to turn on in for child abuse. As if keeping kids under lock and key and cell phone and careful watch is the right way to rear kids. Its not. Its debilitating (使虚弱)for us and for them.Online message boards were soon full of people both app

6、lauding and condemning Skenazys decision to let her son go it alone. She wound up defending herself on CNN (accompanied by her son) and on popular blogs like the buffing ton post, where her follow-up piece was ironically headlined “More From Americas Worst Mom.The episode has ignited another one of

7、those debates that divides parents into vocal opposing camps. Are Modern parents needlessly overprotective, or is the world a more complicated and dangerous place than it was when previous generations were allowed to wander about unsupervised? From the “shes an irresponsible mother camp came: “Shame

8、 on you for being so careless about his safety, in Comments on the buffing ton post. And there was this from a mother of four: “How would you have felt if he didnt come home? But Skenazy got a lot of support, too, with women and men writing in with stories about how they were allowed to take trips a

9、ll by them selves at seven or eight. She also got heaps of praise for bucking the “helicopter parent trend: “Good for this Mom, one commenter wrote on the buffing ton post. “This is a much-needed reality check.Last week, encouraged by all the attention, Skenazy started her own blogFree Range, kidspr

10、omoting the idea that modern children need some of the same independence that her generation had. In the good old days nine-year-old baby boomers rode their bikes to school, walked to the store, took busesand even subwaysall by themselves. Her blog, she says, is dedicated to sensible parenting. “At

11、Free Range Kids, we believe in safe kids. We believe in car seats and safety belts. We do NOT believe that every time school-age children go outside, they need a security guard.So why are some parents so nervous about letting their children out of their sight? Are cities and towns less safe and kids

12、 more vulnerable to crimes like child kidnap and sexual abuse than they were in previous generations?Not exactly. New York City, for instance, is safer than its ever been; its ranked 36th in crime among all American cities. Nationwide, stringer kidnaps are extremely rare; theres a one-in-a-million c

13、hance a child will be taken by a stranger, according to the Justice Department. And 90 percent of sexual abuse cases are committed by someone the child knows. Mortality rates from all causes, including disease and accidents, for American children are lower now than they were 25 years ago. According

14、to Child Trends, a nonprofit research group, between 1980 and 2003 death rates dropped by 44 percent for children aged 5 to 14 and 32 percent for teens aged 15 to 19.Then theres the whole question of whether modern parents are more watchful and nervous about safety than previous generations. Yes, so

15、me are. Part of the problem is that with wall to wall Internet and cable news, every missing child case gets so much airtime that its not surprising even normal parental anxiety can be amplified. And many middle-class parents have gotten used to managing their childrens time and shuttling them to va

16、rious enriching activities, so the idea of letting them out on their own can seem like a risk. Back in 1972, when many of todays parents were kids, 87 percent of children who lived within a mile of school walked or biked every day. But today, the Centers for Disease Control report that only 13 perce

17、nt of children bike, walk or otherwise t themselves to school.The extra supervision is both a city and a suburb phenomenon. Parents are worried about crime, and they are worried about kids getting caught in traffic in a city thats not used to pedestrians. On the other hand, there are still plenty of

18、 kids whose parents give them a lot of independence, by choice or by necessity. The After School Alliance finds that more than 14 million kids aged 5 to 17 are responsible for taking care of themselves after school. Only 6.5 million kids participate in organized programs. “Many children who have wor

19、king parents have to take the subway or bus to get to school. Many do this by themselves because they have no other way to get to the schools, says Dr. Richard Gallagher, director of the Parenting Institute at the New York University Child Study Center.For those parents who wonder how and when they

20、should start allowing their kids more freedom, theres no clear-cut answer. Child experts discourage a one-size-fits-all approach to parenting. Whats right for Skenazys nine-year-old could be inappropriate for another one. It all depends on developmental issue, maturity, and the psychological and emo

21、tional makeup of that child. Several factors must be taken into account, says Gallagher. “The ability to follow parent guidelines, the childs level of comfort in handling such situations, and a childs general judgment should be weighed.Gallagher agrees with Skenazy that many nine-year-olds are ready

22、 for independence like taking public transportation alone. “At certain times of the day, on certain routes, the subways are generally safe for these children, especially if they have grown up in the city and have been taught how to be safe, how to obtain help if they are concerned for their safety,

23、and how to avoid unsafe situations by being watchful and on their toes.But even with more traffic and fewer sidewalks, modern parents do have one advantage their parents didnt: the cell phone. Being able to check in with a child anytime goes a long way toward relieving parental anxiety and may help

24、parents loosen their control a little sooner. Skenazy got a lot of criticism because she didnt give her kid her cell phone because she thought hed lose it and wanted him to learn to go it alone without depending on moma major principle of free-range parenting. But most parents are more than happy to

25、 use cell phones to keep track of their kids.And for those who like the idea of free-range kids but still struggle with their inner helicopter parent, there may be a middle way. A new generation of GPS cell phones with tracking software make it easier than ever to follow a childs every movement via

26、the Internetwithout seeming to interfere or hover. Of course, when they go to college, they might start objecting to being monitored as theyre on parole (假释).注意：此部分试题请在答题卡1上作答。 1.
