托福写作高分范文：好父母应具备什么素质

英语自学网

　　What are some of the qualities of a good parent. Use specific details and
examples to explain your answer.
        　　I am fortunate to have good parents so it is easy for me to identify the
qualities that make them good. These qualities are unconditional love, trust,
and respect for me and my brothers and sisters.
        　　All mothers and fathers love their children. They nurture them and keep
them from harm. But not all love is unconditional. Some parents would not love
their children if they married someone of a different religion or from a
different ethnic group. Some parents would not love their children if they were
of a different sexual orientation. My parents won’t. My parents would love us
regardless of whom we married or whom we chose to love.
        　　Part of unconditional love is trust. My parents trust us to do what is
right. They know we would never do anything to hurt them or to disgrace them.
They trust us so we trust them. We are confident that they would never do
anything to hurt us.
        　　Because our parents love us, they also respect us. They treat us as
individuals. They accept our differences. They do not expect us to be like them.
They want us to be our own persons. They want us to make our own way in the
world, not follow in their footsteps.
        　　Without their love, I would not be as confident as I am. Without their
trust, I would not be free to do what I want. Without their respect, I would not
feel comfortable being on my own. All children should have such wonderful
parents.
