0547/2/M/J/07 14 © UCLES 2007 Exercise 2 Questions 29-34 问题二十九至三十四 请阅读下面的短文,然后用中文回答问题。 大学旅游,孩子真受益吗? 八月的北京,记者来到清华大学西门外,一群穿着黄色衬衫的孩子在照相。 他们是参加了当地的旅游团来北京旅游的。北京大学、清华大学两所有名的大学 是所有学生旅游团必须参观的地方。陪他们的一位老师说:“家长想让孩子感受 一下名牌大学的气氛,希望能使他们朝这个方向努力。” 据记者了解,学生旅游团参观大学的时候,一般游览两到三个小时,让小 学生感到十分累。 “这里很漂亮,就是太大了。”一个来清华大学的小学生说。在北京大 学,一名从西安来的初中学生说:“这里跟颐和园一样,很好玩。”对于初中 学生、小学生来说,参观大学跟去长城、故宫没有什么不同。不过,一个叫林 方的高中学生是从山东来的。他看过北京大学的校园以后说:“我下定决心考 这里了。” 有人认为,家长让孩子游大学,可能会给孩子造成“非清华北大不读”的压 力,对孩子未来的成长不一定就是一件好事。
