If parents bring up a child with the sole aim of turning the child into a genius, they
will cause a disaster. According to several leading educational psychologists, this is one of
the biggest mistakes which ambitious parents make. Generally, the child will be only too
aware of what his parents expect, and will fail. Unrealistic parental expectations can cause
great damage to children.
However, if parents are not too unrealistic about what they expect their children to
do, but are ambitious in a sensible way, the child may succeed in doing very well –
especially if the parents are very supportive of their child. Michael Collins is very lucky.
He is crazy about music, and his parents help him a lot by taking him to concerts and
arranging private piano and violin lessons for him. They even drive him 50 kilometers
twice a week for violin lessons. Michael’s mother knows very little about music, but his
father plays the trumpet in a large orchestra. However, he never makes Michael enter
music competitions if he is unwilling.
Winston Smith, Michael’s friend, however, is not so lucky. Both his parents are
successful musicians, and they set too high a standard for Winston. They want their son to
be as successful as they are and so they enter him for every piano competition held. They
are very unhappy when he does not win. Winston is always afraid that he will disappoint
his parents and now he always seems quiet and unhappy.
Question 11: One of the serious mistakes parents can make is to ______.
A. push their child into trying too much
B. help their child to become a genius
C. make their child become a musician
D. neglect their child’s education
Question 12: Parents’ ambition for their children is not wrong if they ______.
A. force their children into achieving success
B. themselves have been very successful
C. understand and help their children sensibly
D. arrange private lessons for their children



C. has become a good musician
D. is afraid to disappoint them
Question 17: The word "They" in the passage refers to ______.

C. parents in general

Question 18: All of the following people are musical EXCEPT _____.
A. Winston’s father

B. Winston’s mother

C. Michael’s father
