Question

【題目】Japanese students work very hard but many are unhappy. They feel heavy pressures from their parents to do well in school. Most students are always being told by their parents to study harder so that they can have a wonderful life. Though this may be good ideas for those very bright students, it can have very bad results for many students who are not quick enough at learning.

Unfortunately, a number of students killed themselves. Others are after comfort in using drugs. Some do bad things with trouble-makers and turn to crime. Many of them have tried very hard at school but have failed in the exams and have disappointed their parents. Such students feel that they are less important and leave school before they have finished their study.

It is surprising that though most Japanese parents are worried about their children, they do not help them in any way. Many parents feel that they are not able to help their children and that it is the teachers’ work to help their children. To make matters worse, a lot of parents send their children to special schools called juku-cram schools. These schools are open during the evening and on weekends, and their only purpose is to prepare students to pass exams. They do not try to educate students in any real sense of the real world. It thus comes as a shock to realize that almost three quarters of the junior or high school population attend these cram schools.

Ordinary Japanese schools usually have rules about everything from the students’ hair to their clothes and things in their school bag. Child psychologists now think that such strict rules often lead to a feeling of being unsafe and being unable to fit into society. They regard the rules as being harmful to the development of each student. They believe that no sense of moral values is developed and that students are given neither guidance nor training in becoming good citizens.

試題分析：這篇文章主要介紹了日本學生面臨的一些嚴重的心理問題。

【1】D考查判斷推理題。根據第一段“They feel heavy pressures from their parents to do well in school. Most students are always being told by their parents to study harder…”可知日本的孩子們面臨著來自父母的很大的壓力。父母們總是告訴孩子要努力學習以后才會有好生活。所以日本孩子在學校過得不開心的原因是他們面臨巨大的壓力。

【2】B考查細節(jié)理解題。根據第二段“Others are after comfort in using drugs.”句意：其他人在嗑藥中尋求安慰。易知選B。

【3】C考查細節(jié)理解題。根據juku-cram school定位到第三段，再根據后面的“These schools are open during the evening and on weekends, and their only purpose is to prepare students to pass exams.”可知這種學校唯一的目的就是讓孩子們通過考試。理所當然地，在這種學校中學生被訓練來通過考試。

【4】A考查細節(jié)理解題。根據最后一段第一句話“Ordinary Japanese schools usually have rules about everything from the students’ hair to their clothes and things in their school bag.”可以推斷出普通的日本學校通常對學生的各個方面都有嚴格的規(guī)定。
