读写任务（共1小题，满分25分）
阅读下面的短文，然后按照要求写一篇150词左右的英语短文。
In the past, the expression "children should be seen and not heard" summed up the attitude of parents to their children. Children were expected to be disciplined, well-behaved and the parents ruled the home. But today parents seem to do everything for their children and control all aspects of their lives. Some call this overparenting. Parents take charge of everything: from what pre-school their kids attend to the pastimes they take up. Parents feel they must protect their children to increase their chances for success. As a result children do less than ever before.
There are two reasons for overparenting. First, people now have fewer children than in years past so they can give each one more attention. Secondly, parents feel the future of their family is now dependent on only one child, so they must do as much as possible to help their child succeed.
But overparenting has negative consequences. Children are less independent now and are protected from the hardships and failures that teach them determination and give them the satisfaction of accomplishment. Also the pressure kids feel to be successful means they experience more anxiety and depression than ever before.

参考答案
1．
Dear Michael,
You want to know the changes about my hometown．You know, great changes have taken placed since 60 years ago．
In the past, the living conditions were very poor．There were not many buses or cars, and the roads were narrow．Usually, a big family was crowded into a small, dark house．Most families couldn’t get enough food．The communications were simple and slow．People kept in touch with others far away mainly by letter or telegram．
Thanks to the government, our hometown has developed rapidly in recently years．The living conditions are much better and more comfortable．The roads are wide．Some people have their own cars．Most of the people have lived in big new houses．Quite a few adults have mobile phones．Because of many good policies, I think our lives will become better and better．
Sincerely Yours,
Li Hua

One possible version:
Dear Paul,
Recently my family are planning to improve our housing conditions. We have different ideas about whether we should buy an old-style house in the suburbs or a flat in the downtown. Some suggest we buy a modern flat because it’s big and bright, and it’s conveniently located close to shops and schools.
However, the others are in favor of the old-style house. They consider the air is fresh and it’s peaceful to live in the suburbs. The most important thing is that neighbours have more chances to communicate with each other to make a harmonious living atmosphere.
What’s your opinion?
Sincerely yours,
Xiao Ming

Because parents are having fewer children, they increasingly feel the need to control the lives of those children. As a result, many children are becoming less independent, determined and ambitious than in the past.
Parents today discourage their children from doing housework, extracurricular activities and socializing because they fear it will interrupt their education. For example, when I was younger I wanted to learn the guitar but my parent wouldn’t allow me because they believed it would distract me from my studies. They are happy as long as I perform well in my exams but don’t seem concerned about how I develop as a person.
To some extend, I understand parents’ concerns, but I think they should love their children for who they are, not what they want them to be. We deserve the chance to chase our own dreams and learn on our own. Even if we fail, we can learn from those failures.

It’s a long time since we last met. I can’t wait to see you!
