children are the “result” of the modern society. our parents have jobs that keep them busy almost all day long. they only have a free day in a week. this doesnt allow them to keep an eye on their children.on the other hand, the modern society gives more freedom to the children than they could “handle”. as a child, you dont know how to grow up by yourself until you reach a certain age. that is why you need school and parents to be by your side all the time. if you dont have either of them you may make a lot of mistakes. the social system of the modern society is very lenient especially with the children.most of the children today are rebels (判逆者). they are rude. they are given too much freedom by their families. this is their parents mistake. they ought to know that the freedom they give to their children is misunderstood.for example it is a bad thing for a 17 year old child to go out in the evening on weekends. parents are also guilty of the way their children show up in the street or at school. the same guilt belongs to the teaching system as well. pupils shouldnt be allowed to dress like they were on a fashion presentation at school.another important fact we can think of regarding the freedom of children is their free will of spending money. parents shouldnt allow their children to spend money on whatever they want.i think children are given too much freedom not only by their parents, but also by the society. the latter is more to be blamed!64the writer implies that parents busy lifestyle .amakes their children become independentbmay lead to a tense parent child

why young children decide to include or exclude (排斥) other kids from their group of friends. it suggests that the kids decision-making process is much more complex than previously believed. they take into account group information, ranging from cliques (小圈子) and networks, when deciding what makes a group work well. sometimes kids are excluded because they lack social skills, but a lot of time it has nothing to do with that. instead it has to do with what we refer to as group membership such as gender, race, nation, and culture, says professor melanie killen, the associate director of the centre for children relationships and culture at maryland, who led the 4-year project. reporting their findings in the journal, the researcher said whatever was the reason, individuals who experienced long-term exclusion (排斥) from the group of friends suffered from depression, anxiety and loneliness. the study looked at two models to define how children make decisions regarding acceptance of other kids in their group - the individual social deficit model and the inter-group social cognition (认同) model. while the former says that childrens rejection occurs due to social deficits like shyness, wariness or fearfulness, the latter says that it happens because of group dynamics, prejudice and exclusion. it was also found that the age of children was also a factor that influenced their decisions regarding other kids acceptance as friends. with age, kids become more aware of group dynamics, conventions, customs, and rituals. with this comes a greater concern about group functioning, which can lead to exclusion which can be negative from a social justice viewpoint, says killen. the researcher believes that her study may have many benefits, as it could provide insights into how to help when children are rejected by their peers.9. while making friends, kids think more about the following except _. a. social skills b. culture c. race d. gender10. the underlined word deficit in paragraph 5 may mean “_”. a. skill b. relationship c. weakness d. experience11. one of the major purposes of the research is to _. a. tell the reader how to tell inclusion from exclusion b. remind
