题目解答
答案
A. Parents' wishes.
解析
考查要点：本题考查对短文主旨的把握能力，需要根据上下文判断文章的核心主题。
解题思路：通过分析信件的语气、内容及情感，明确作者身份与写作目的。关键点在于识别文中“父母”对即将离家求学的孩子的复杂情感（既期待又不舍），从而对应选项中的“父母的愿望”。
步骤1：定位作者身份
短文以“Dear child”开头，明确是父母写给孩子的信。文中提到“for us”“our greatest pride”等，进一步确认作者是父母。
步骤2：分析情感与内容
- 第一段：描述孩子即将进入大学的“exciting new worlds”，表达对未来的期待与祝福。
- 第二段：提到“moment of sadness”“watching you depart”，体现离别的不舍。
核心情感：父母对孩子的爱、期望与离别时的复杂心情。
步骤3：排除干扰选项
- 选项B（A child's wishes）：错误。信件是父母对孩子的寄语，而非孩子表达自身愿望。
- 选项C（A president's wishes）：明显无关，文中无任何政治或领导层相关内容。
结论：文章主题聚焦于父母对孩子的期望与情感，故选A. Parents' wishes。
