　　Chinese are very generous(慷慨的) when it comes to educating their children. Not caring about the money, parents often send their children to the best schools or even abroad. They also want their children to take extra-course activities where they will either learn music or dance, or other classes which will give them a head start in life. The Chinese believe that the more expensive an education is, the better it is. So the parents will spend an unreasonable amount of money on education. Even poor parents will buy a computer for their son or daughter.

　　However, what most parents fail to see is that the best early education they can give their children is usually very cheap.

　　Parents can see that their children’s skills are different, maybe skilled in some areas while poor in others. What most parents fail to realize, is that today's children are in great need of self-confidence.

　　The problem is that parents are only educating their children on how to take tests and how to study well, but parents are not teaching them the most important skills that they need to be confident, happy and clever.

　　Parents can achieve this by teaching practical skills like cooking, sewing and doing housework.

　　Teaching a child to cook will improve many of the skills that he will need later in life. Cooking needs patience and time. It is an enjoyable but difficult experience. A good cook always tries to improve his cooking, so he will learn to work hard and gradually finish his job successfully. His result, a well-cooked dinner, will give him much satisfaction and lots of self-confidence.

　　Some old machines, such as a broken radio or TV set that you give your children to play with will make him curious(好奇的) and have interest. He will spend hours looking at them, trying to fix them. Your child might become an engineer when he grows up. These activities are not only teaching a child to read a book, but also to think. And that is more important.

　　A. are too strict in their children’s lives and studies

　　B. pay enough attention to children’s different skills

　　C. spend a lot of money on children’s education

　　A. self-confidence

　　B. high marks

　　C. housework skills

　　( ) 63. Doing some cooking at home helps children________.

　　A. learn how to serve their parents

　　B. learn how to become strong and healthy

　　A. broken radios and television sets are useful
