Ⅰ.阅读理解 Japanese students work very hard but many are unhappy.They feel heavy pressures from their parents.Most students are always told by their parents to study harder and better so that they can have a wonderful life in the future.Though this may be a good idea for those very bright students，it can have terrible results for many students who are not gifted (有天赋的) enough.Many of them have tried very hard at school but have failed in the exams and have their parents lose hope.Such students feel that they are hated by everyone else they meet and they don't want to go to school any longer.They become dropouts． It is surprising that though most Japanese parents are worried about their children，they do not help them in any way.Many parents feel that they are not able to help their children and that it is the teachers' work to help their children.To make matters worse，a lot of parents send their children to those schools opening in the evenings and on weekends—they only help the students to pass the exams and never teach them any real sense of the world.
