Such an opinion is supported by a research team at Tongji University. The team did research on peoples waiting times at different road crossings for three years. They found that Chinese people would wait for 70 to 90 seconds(秒) before they lost their patience. People are likely to ignore(忽视) the light when the waiting time is longer than they can bear,” said Ni Ying, a member of the research team.However, a survey on Sina Weibo suggested that people jaywalk mainly because they ignore rules.

In Singapore, the maximum can be three months in prison. Some Chinese cities have started taking some actions, too.

Last Friday he came back from school with a letter. The letter was from his teacher. “I got a red flower today. Could you please sign this note?” he said to mum. The note showed that he had been talking in class.Ted hardly gets top scores in his school work. The best he gets is “OK”, but he often gets “You can do better than this.” Mum knows what it means. She tells me “You can do better than this” means “Extremely bad” in China.In the USA, teachers never say anything too bad about their students, even if the students are making trouble in class or not working hard enough. The worst they might say is “Please be nicer tomorrow”. Many parents are satisfied with a B-grade for each subject.But things in Chinese schools are quite different. Parents have high expectations for their children. I sometimes felt that my second-grade cousin spend more time on homework than I did when I was 6th grade in the US! Yet his parents and teachers didnt think he worked hard enough.Is it too strict in China? Or is it not strict enough in the USA? Maybe both are true.（1）Why did Ted come home with a letter last Friday? A . Because the teacher wanted to visit his mother.B . Because he did something wrong.C . Because the teacher was happy with his progress.D . Because the teacher thought he was too lazy.（2）The underlined words “high expectations” in this passage means “_”. A . 很高的待遇B . 很多的自由C . 很高的期望D . 很多的关爱（3）The writer mainly wants to tell us _. A . the differences between Chinese education and American educationB . Chinese students are better than American studentsC . American parents are not strict enough with their childrenD . whats the best way to educate child三、 任务型阅读(每小题1分，共4分) (共1题；共4分)6. （4分）阅读下面短文，根据短文内容回答问题。My best friend and I are in the same school.
