阅读理解 | After the Tiger Mom comes the "Wolf Father"
Tan Xiaoyan, 15: My dream is to go to Tsinghua University. There are top educational resources (资源), world famous teachers and excellent students in this university. If we spend years studying there, we surely will get a good job and live a better life in the future. However, there must be a lot of challenges and difficulties on the way. So I will accept (接受) the wolf father"s strict educational style if it can really make my dream come true. Liu Boyu, 15: I would accept a wolf father because I really need a strict person to help me control (控制) myself. Now I am interested in playing computer games all day. And I don"t want to study. A wolf father can help me focus on my studies. I believe under his strict control I can study better and go to one of the key universities. Shi Yunting, 16: I will not accept a wolf father. I don"t think I can get used to his educational style. It would make me too tired to enjoy the golden moments of my childhood. Besides, entering Peking or Tsinghua University doesn"t mean that I will certainly have a bright future. I think studies should be a pleasant thing. We should study in the way that we like. Liu Jiahui, 16: I don"t believe life is only made for studying. There are many meaningful things to do in life. Studying is one of them. So I will say no to the wolf father"s educational style. Even if I don"t enter a university as good as Peking or Tsinghua University, I would still be very happy because I would be going to a university as a person, not a learning machine. | 1.
