　　钟果父母

　　钟果父母往往过于关注孩子的学习，以至于不要他们帮忙做家务。他们对孩子的首要要求就是努力学习，考得好,能上名牌大学。他们相信这是为孩子好,因为在中国这样竞争激烈的社会里，只有成绩好才能保证前途光明。钟果父母还认为，如果孩子能在社会上取得大的成就,父母就会受到尊敬。因此，他们愿意牺牲自己的时间、爱好和兴趣，为孩子创造更好的条件。

　　参考译文：

　　Chinese parents often pay so much attention to their children's study that they don't want them to help with the housework. Their first requirement for their children is to study hard, do well and go to a famous university. They believe it is good for their children, because in such a competitive society as China, only good grades can guarantee a bright future. Chinese parents also believe that if their children can make great achievements in society, their parents will be respected. Therefore, they are willing to sacrifice their time, hobbies and interests to create better conditions for their children.
