    I fell in love with England because it was quaint(古雅)—all those little houses, looking terribly old-fashioned but nice, like dolls’ houses. I loved the countryside and the pubs, and I love London. I’ve slightly changed my mind after seventeen years because I think it’s an ugly town now.

    Things have changed. For everybody, England meant gentlemen, fair play and good manners. The fair play is going, unfortunately, and so are the gentlemanly attitudes and good manners—people shut doors heavily in your face and politeness is disappearing.

    I regret that there are so few comfortable meeting places. You’re forced to live indoors. In Paris I go out much more, to restaurants and nightclubs. To meet friends here it usually has to be in a pub, and it can be difficult to go there alone as a woman. The cafes are not terribly nice.

   As a woman, I feel unsafe here. I spend a bomb on taxis because I will not take public transport after 10 p.m. I used to use it, but now I’m afraid.

   The idea of family seems to be more or less non-existent in England. My family is well united and that’s typically French. In Middlesex I had a neighbor who is 82 now. His family only lived two miles away, but I took him to France for Christmas once because he was always alone.

The writer doesn’t like London because she___.

  A. is not used to the life there now           B. has lived there for seventeen years

  C. prefers to live in an old-fashioned house    D. has to be polite to everyone she meets there

Where do people usually meet their friends in England?

  A. In a café.       B. In a restaurant.      C. In a nightclub.      D. In a pub.

The underlined part “it” (in Para.4) refers to ___.

  A. a taxi     B. the money     C. a bomb         D. public transport

The writer took her neighbor to France for Christmas because he ___.

  A. felt lonely                            B. had never been to France

  C. was from a typically French family        D. didn’t like the British idea of family

Has Tiger Mom gone soft? One year after the release of her book, Battle Hymn of the Tiger Mother, Amy Chua is back in the spotlight, reflecting on how overnight infamy (惡名) affected her life, her family and her parenting.
“I have changed a lot,” she told the Huffington Post. “In October, we had 30 kids at our house! We have hosted parties with lots of food and music.”
Last January, the Wall Street Journal published an excerpt (節(jié)選) from Chua’s book with the headline “Why Chinese Mothers Are Superior”. In the excerpt, Chua described how her daughters were never allowed to have sleepovers (在外過(guò)夜的兒童聚會(huì)), appear in school plays, or earn any grade lower than an A. Chua, an author and professor at Yale Law School, spent much of 2011 on the defensive. In fact, many of her interviews seemed to lend fuel to her critics’ fire.
Now, with the book out in paperback, she said, “I put passages in the book and used very harsh words that I regret. Everybody has those moments you wish you could take back.”
For those who still read Battle Hymn as an advice guide, Chua argues that so-called tiger parenting should be employed mainly during a child’s early years, ideally between the ages of 5 and 12. These “super-strict parenting tactics” are not meant for all ages. Remaining strict after middle school makes you a helicopter parent, according to Chua. And she is quick to point out how different that is from being a tiger mom.
“By the time kids get to high school, helicopter parents are hiring all these tutors, carrying their kids’ sports bags. I never checked older daughter Sophia’s papers because I knew she knew how to sit down and focus,” Chua said.
As for younger daughter Lulu, 15, the rebel for whom the book was written, Chua has really backed off. Instead of forcing Lulu to practise violin for hours a day—the source of their biggest fights, Chua “l(fā)et her give that up”. “My compromise (妥協(xié)) is that I’m going to still be as strict academically, but in exchange she has a lot of social freedom. Lulu has had four sleepovers in the last two months!” Chua said. Chua predicts she’ll only get more easygoing with age.
【小題1】What does the passage mainly tell us?

A．Tiger Mom has changed and wants to be soft.
B．Tiger Mom persuaded readers to follow her example.
C．How Battle Hymn of the Tiger Mother came out.
D．How Tiger Mom became the worldwide spotlight.
【小題2】From paragraph 1 we can know that after the publication of the book______________.
A．Tiger Mom became stricter with her children
B．Tiger Mom was thought highly by the public
C．Tiger Mom’s life and family were influenced
D．Tiger Mom became wealthy and easygoing
【小題3】Lulu quarreled with her mother mainly over______________.
A．whether she could do well at school
B．when she could have sleepovers
C．what should be written in the book
D．how long she practiced the violin
