The theories of modern psychology have stepped in to argue that we must understand the need of children. Children are not just small adults；they are children who must be respected as much.Well, you may say, this is as it should be, a good idea.But think further. What happens? “Education” becomes the responsibility not of teachers, but of psychologists(心理学家). What happens then? Teachers worry too much about the psychological implications(暗示) of their lessons, and forget about the subjects themselves. If a child dislikes a lesson, the teacher feels that it is his fault, not the child’s. So teachers worry whether history is “relevant” to modern young children. And do they dare to recount stories about violence? Or will this make the children themselves violent? Can they tell their classes about children of different races, or will this encourage racial hatred? Why teach children to write grammatical sentences? Verbal expression is better. Sums? Arithmetic? No.Real­life mathematical situations are more understandable.You see, you may go too far. Influenced by educational theorists, who have nothing better to do than to write books about their ideas, teachers leave their teacher­training colleges filled with grand, psychological ideas about children and their needs. They make elaborate, sophisticated(精致的，复杂的) preparations and try out their “modern methods” on the long­suffering children. Since one “modern method” rapidly replaces another, the poor kids will have had a good bellyful by the time they leave school. Frequently the modern methods are so sophisticated that they fail to be understood by the teachers, let alone the children; even more often, the relaxed discipline so essential for the “ informal” feelings the class must have, prevents all but a handful of children from learning anything.1. People do not dare to defend the old system mainly because under the old system________.A．too much grammar was taught to childrenB．children were spoiled (宠坏)C．children were treated as grown­upsD．children were made to learn passively(被动的)2. What view do the modern psychologists hold?A．Children must be understood and respected.B．Children are small adults and know what they need.C．Children are better off without learning lessons.D．Education of children is the responsibility of psychologists.3. What happens when teachers pay too much attention to the psychology of their lessons?A．They find that the children dislike the lessons.B．They tend to blame students for their failure.C．They do not pay enough attention to the actual lessons.D．They no longer want to teach children history.4. Grammatical sentences are regarded as unimportant because________.A．it is better to use verbs onlyB．words are said out of natural feelings onlyC．talking freely and naturally without sentences is a better form of expressionD. it is felt that formal grammar rules might cause unnatural expressions5. According to the passage, the modern methods are understood by________.A．neither teachers nor pupilsB．only a handful of teachers and pupilsC．the more sophisticated teachersD．everyone who enjoys the relaxed discipline of the informal classeslong adj.长的；adv.长久地，长期地生义：v.渴望，盼望(1)I longed to see her again.我盼望再次见到她。
