As a child, I was truly afraid of the dark and of getting lost; these fears were very real and 1 me some uncomfortable moments.
Maybe it was strange that things in my room often frightened me at night. There was never total darkness, but a streetlight or passing car lights2 clothes hung over a chair take on the3 of a wild animal. Out of the cormner of my eye, I saw the curtains seem to move when there was no4 . A tiny sound in the floor would seem a hundred times5 than in the daylight. My imagination would6 wild, and my heart would beat fast. I would lie very still so that the "enemy" would not discover me.
Another of my childhood fears was that I would get lost,7 on the way home from school. Every morning I got on the school bus right near my home. That was no8 . But after school, when all the buses were9 up along the street, I was afraid that I'd get on the wrong one and be taken to some10 neighborhood. On school or family trips to a park or a museum, I wouldn't let the leaders out of my11 .
Perhaps one of the worst fears of all I had as a child was that of not being liked or12 by others. Being popular was so important to me13 and the fear of not being liked was a powerful one.
One of the processes of growing up is being able to recognize and14 our fears.
Understanding the things that frightened us as children helps us15 greater success later in life.

Then she worked there for the following 8 years.
"From my own experience, I have realized that a person's future has a lot to do with he meets," said Zhao Ya. When people ask Zhao Ya whether she r spending so much time helping others, her answer is always "No". She wants to do something for the (社会). And she thinks she has made the right choice.
Five years ago, my mother, gave birth to a brother for me when I was 8. I have learned a lot from getting along with him.
After he was born, I almost became a babysitter. I had to amuse him after school. I would make faces and sing to him when he was crying. Sometimes I even camped him everywhere in our yard to refresh him while my parents were busy. What I liked to do best was to feed him when looking after him. How cute he was as he tasted his favorite food! My parents often praised me happily," As an elder brother, you've made contributions to looking after your younger brother. "
I have got happiness from sharing. When I was young, I was the only child in my family. I could get what I wanted from my parents and get my parents' whole love. I was a "Little Emperor".
But now, as long as I get something good, I will share it with him. I remembered the year when he was three, he was fond of Rubik's cubes(魔方). I bought one for him with my lucky money as a birthday present When he got the toy, he was so happy that he laughed, hugged me and said, "Brother, I love you!
Thanks for spending these years together, with my family. It has taught me what responsibility means, what unselfishness means and what friendship means.
Not only should I look after myself, but also I should pay attention to my family and my friends.
In your school, are you allowed to choose the subjects you want to learn? If you don't like a subject, can you choose not to take it? Of course, the answer is "No"in China.
In America there is a school trying something new. At a high school in Florida, students will be able to choose their own classes. We all know that some students are better at some subjects than others. Some students plan to go on to college, while others will not. At this school students are able to find subjects they are interested in, and possibly even find the field(领域) they would like to go into after school. They are allowed to choose a subject like biology, math, a foreign language, or study skills like computer or car repair.
Some people think this is a good idea, because it helps students think about what they want to do in the future, and the school helps to give them the knowledge and skills they need to get there. They say that giving the students the chance to choose their own classes makes high school more interesting. Others disagree. They think it will make it difficult for students to discover different possibilities(潜力). They point out that fourteen-year-old teenagers are too young to know what they will want to do in the future. How do you think? Would you like to be able to choose your own classes? Would you like to decide what you learn in school? Many useful changes have been made in education, but seeing the differences in each student is also important. What are they interested in? How can we help each student become a better student?
A. You should punish your kids only in ways you have discussed before the rule is broken. B. Many parents like setting family rules for their kids. C. Punishment is a way to express your anger, but it's not a very good one. D. Rules are made to help your kids behave better. E. Punishments you set should be reasonable, without violence(暴力)or threat(威胁). |
When kids break rules, parents will give them some punishments, which aren't included in rules. In fact, when you tell your kids about a new rule, you should talk with them about the price they should pay for breaking the rule—what the punishment will be.
For example, if you find your son smoking, you may limit his social activities for two weeks. A study shows that the most popular punishment is to limit kids' TV time.
It's understandable that you'll be angry when rules are broken. Sharing your feelings of anger, disappointment or sadness with your kids can have a better effect on them. Try to do that. When your kids know what they have done has made you sad, they will feel guilty. When they know their actions influence you greatly, they will obey rules better.
If your rules or ways of punishment make them unhappy or under a lot of pressure, are they helpful?
