Few people would defend the Victorian attitude
of children, but if you were a parent in those days,【M1】______
at least you know where you stood; children were to【M2】______
be seen and not heard. Freud and company did away
with all that and parents have been bewildered ever
since. The child's happiness is all-important, the
psychologists say, but what about the parents' happiness
Parents suffer constantly with fear and guilt 【M3】______
while their children gaily romp about pull the place【M4】______
apart. A good old-fashion spanking is out of the 【M5】______
question; no modern child-rearing manual would
permit such barbarity. The trouble is you are not al
lowed even to shout at. Who knows what deep 【M6】______
psychological wounds you might inflict？ The poor child
may recover from the dreadful traumatic experience.
So it is that parents bend over backwards to avoid
to give their children complexes which a hundred 【M7】______
years ago hadn't even been heard of. Certainly a
child needs love, and a lot of it. But the excessive
permissiveness of modern parents is surely doing
more harm than good. Psychologists have succeeded
in undermining parents' confidence in their own au
thority. And it has taken children long to get wind of【M8】______
the fact. There are countless articles in magazines
and newspapers. With so much unsolicited advice
fly about, parents do nothing at all. And the children【M9】______
take complete control. What else can the poor
parents do but obey？ But the psychologists have
much to answer. They should keep their mouths shut【M10】______
and let the parents get on with the job. This will at
least belp the children to develop vigorous views of
their own and give them something positive to react
against.

【英译汉必译题】
This week and next, governments, international agencies and nongovernmental organizations are gathering in Mexico City at the World Water Forum to discuss the legacy of global Mulhollandism in water - and to chart a new course.
They could hardly have chosen a better location. Water is being pumped out of the aquifer on which Mexico City stands at twice the rate of replenishment. The result: the city is subsiding at the rate of about half a meter every decade. You can see the consequences in the cracked cathedrals, the tilting Palace of Arts and the broken water and sewerage pipes.
Every region of the world has its own variant of the water crisis story. The mining of groundwaters for irrigation has lowered the water table in parts of India and Pakistan by 30 meters in the past three decades. As water goes down, the cost of pumping goes up, undermining the livelihoods of poor farmers.
What is driving the global water crisis？ Physical availability is part of the problem. Unlike oil or coal, water is an infinitely renewable resource, but it is available in a finite quantity. With water use increasing at twice the rate of population growth, the amount available per person is shrinking - especially in some of the poorest countries.
Challenging as physical scarcity may be in some countries, the real problems in water go deeper. The 20th-century model for water management was based on a simple idea: that water is an infinitely available free resource to be exploited, dammed or diverted without reference to scarcity or sustainability.
Across the world, water-based ecological systems - rivers, lakes and watersheds - have been taken beyond the frontiers of ecological sustainability by policy makers who have turned a blind eye to the consequences of over- exploitation.
We need a new model of water management for the 21st century. What does that mean？ For starters, we have to stop using water like there"s no tomorrow - and that means using it more efficiently at levels that do not destroy our environment. The buzz- phrase at the Mexico Water forum is "integrated water resource management." What it means is that governments need to manage the private demand of different users and manage this precious resource in the public interest.
Psychologists have succeeded in undermining parents' confidence in their own authority. And it hasn't taken children long to get wind of the fact. In addition to the great modern classics on childcare, there are countless articles in magazines and newspapers. With so much unsolicited advice flying about, mum and dad just don't know what to do any more. In the end, they do nothing at all. So, from early childhood, the kids are in charge and parents' lives are regulated according to the needs of heir offspring. When the little dears develop into teenagers, they take complete control. Lax authority over the years makes adolescent rebellion against parents all the more violent. If the young people are going to have a party, for instance, parents are asked to leave the house. Their presence merely spoils the fun. What else can the poor parents do but obey'？
Children are hardy creatures (far hardier than the psychologists would have us believe) and most of them survive the harmful influence of extreme permissiveness which is the normal condition in the modern household. But a great many do not. The spread of juvenile delinquency in our own age is largely due to parental laxity. Mother, believing that little Johnny can look after himself, is not at home when he returns from school, so little Johnny roams the streets. The dividing-line between permissiveness and sheer negligence is very fine 'indeed.
The psychologists have much to answer for. They should keep their mouths shut and let parents get on with the job. And if children are knocked about a little bit in the process, it may not really matter too much. At least this will help them to develop vigorous views of their own and give them something positive to react against. Perhaps there's some truth in the idea that children who have had a surfeit of happiness in their childhood appear like stodgy puddings and fail to make a success of life.
