Read the passage and choose the best option to answer to each of the following questions.
One of your most important goals as a parent is to raise children who become independent and self-reliant people. However, some well-intended, but misguided parents have raised contingent children rather than responsible ones. Contingent children are dependent on others for how they feel about themselves. Those children are raised by parents who act on their own needs for power and use control to ensure that they remain the dominant forces in their children’s lives. Independent children differ from contingent children in several ways. If your children are independent, you have provided them with the belief that they are competent and capable of taking care of themselves. You offered them the guidance to find activities that are meaningful and satisfying. You gave your children the freedom to experience life fully and learn its many important lessons. The most important thing about raising independent children is that you understand the essential responsibilities that you and they need to accept. Your responsibilities revolve primarily around providing your children with the opportunity, means, and support to pursue their goals. The psychological means include providing love, guidance, and encouragement in their efforts. The practical means include ensuring that your children have the materials needed, proper instruction, and transportation, as well as other logistical concerns. Your child’s responsibilities Involve doing what is necessary to maximize the opportunities that you give them. These responsibilities include giving their best effort, being responsible and disciplined, staying committed, and giving an achievement opportunity a realistic try, as well as, completing all tasks and exercises, getting the most out of instruction, being cooperative, and expressing appreciation and gratitude for others’ efforts.

Một trong những mục tiêu quan trọng nhất của cha mẹ là nuôi dạy con cái trở thành những người độc lập và tự chủ. Tuy nhiên, một số cha mẹ có ý định tốt, nhưng lại sai định hướng nên đã nuôi dạy nên một đứa trẻ phụ thuộc thay vì một đứa trẻ có trách nhiệm.
Trẻ em phụ thuộc là trẻ phụ thuộc vào người khác trong cách họ cảm nhận về bản thân mình. Những đứa trẻ đó được nuôi dưỡng bởi cha mẹ là những người mà hành động theo nhu cầu quyền lực của chính họ và sử dụng quyền kiểm soát để đảm bảo rằng họ luôn là người chi phối chính trong cuộc sống của con cái họ.
Trẻ em độc lập khác với trẻ em phụ thuộc ở một vài điểm. Nếu con bạn độc lập, bạn đã cho chúng niềm tin rằng chúng có năng lực và có khả năng tự chăm sóc bản thân. Bạn hướng dẫn chúng tìm các hoạt động có ý nghĩa và khiến chúng hài lòng. Bạn đã cho con bạn tự do trải nghiệm cuộc sống một cách đầy đủ và học được nhiều bài học quan trọng từ cuộc sống.

Những trách nhiệm này bao gồm sự nỗ lực hết mình, có trách nhiệm và kỷ luật, luôn tận tâm và nỗ lực thực sự khi có cơ hội thành công, cũng như hoàn thành tất cả các nhiệm vụ và bài tập, tận dụng tối đa sự hướng dẫn, có thái độ hợp tác, thể hiện được sự cảm kích và lòng biết ơn trước những nỗ lực của người khác.

1. What is the passage mainly about?
Read the passage and anwer the questions below.
If you are in public or with other friends or family in Japan, your Japanese partner will most likely not show an open display of affection such as hand holding, touching, kissing or verbal expressions of love. It doesn’t mean that the person does not love or care about you. It is a point of respect that people do not show physical expressions of love in the general public or if older people are nearby. At the same time, when you both return to a private residence or location, you might see a different side of that person. That person may be very “loving” in his or her words and actions. This can also be true if you and your significant other travel or live in another country outside of Japan. My friends and I who have dated or married Japanese nationals have found that our Japanese partners (both male and female) tend to show more open affection in locations outside of Japan. However, once they arrive at the airport in Japan, they change to be more reserved and show all the Japanese cultural mannerisms they learned growing up. For many cultures, open displays of affection are considered standard daily practices. However, if you are dating a Japanese person, you will need to understand the difference between public and private locations. Public affection is a common concern among internationals dating Japanese individuals. They don’t understand how Japanese can be so affectionate in private and indifferent when with others. Which can lead to misunderstandings, arguments or even the end of a relationship.
