這是兩名學生在討論家庭的一篇對話。這篇對話傳遞了三個信息。我們首先了解了Brian的家庭成員(Brian: Four. My parents, my elder sister and I.);其次,了解了Brian父母親的職業 (My father works in a computer company, and my mother is a nurse.),他的父親在一家計算機公司工作,母親是護士。最后,我們從對話中得知,Brian的父母親對他要求很嚴格:Brian在家的時候,他得自己打掃房間,幫助父母做家務活,晚飯前必須做完家庭作業,晚上九點之前必須回家。這些具體事例有力地證明了Brian的父母對他的嚴格要求。
我們不難看出Brian父母的良苦用心,希望Brian學習上養成良好的習慣,生活上鍛煉他自理的能力,要求他分擔家務。家長培養孩子長大成材,就得從小事抓起,溺愛孩子只會使孩子嬌生慣養,依賴性強,事業上無所成就。這篇對話篇幅不長,卻體現了值得大家學習的一種家庭教育理念。
