If parents bring up a child with the aim of turning the child into a genius, they will
cause great damage to him. According to several leading educational psychologists, this is
one of the biggest mistakes which some parents make. Generally, the child will understand
very well what the parents expects, and will fail. Unrealistic parental expectations can cause
great damage to the children.
However, if parents are not unrealistic about what they expect their children to do, but are
hopeful in a sensible way, the child may succeed in doing very well especially if the parents
are very supportive of their children.
Michael Smiths is very lucky. He is very fond of music, and his parents help him a lot by
taking him to concerts and arranging private piano and violin lessons. Although Michael's
father plays the trumpet in a large orchestra, he never makes Michael enter music

competitions if he is unwilling.
Michael's friend, Winston Maier, however, is not so lucky. As both his parents are successful
musicians, they set too high a standard for Winston. They want their son to be as successful
as they are, and so they enter him in every piano competition held. They are very unhappy
when he does not win. "When I was at your age, I used to win every competition I entered,"
Winston's father tells him. Winston is always afraid that he will disappoint his parents and
now he always seem quiet and unhappy.

A. his parents help him in a sensible way
B. his family is rich enough to have a car
C. his father is a musician in an orchestra
D. he is free to do anything that he likes best
Question 38. Winston's parents set so high a standard for him that________.
A. he has to do his best to do everything
B. he has made great progress in music
C. he is afraid that he may disappoint them
D. he often wants to kill himself some day
Question 39. According to the author's opinion,________.
A. it is unimportant to let the child develop in the way they want.
B. parents should be supportive of their children.
C. all sensible parents can train their children to succeed in everything.
D. unrealistic parents should arrange private lessons for their children.
