Most parents hope that their children can be happy and successful. But do you know the most powerful (很有效的) way to encourage them to be so? 丁lie answer is to allow them to make their own decisions.
Unfortunately,most parents make decisions for their children —what they wear,what they eat and what movies they watch. In fact,it's not good for children to grow up.
Children should be allowed to make decisions when they are very young. But this doesn’t mean they are allowed to do everything. For example,you shouldn’t take your children into a store and tell them they can have anything they want. But you can give them a choice among snacks. When children get older,you can expand the number of choices you give them. For example,allow them to decide the activities they want to take part in or when they go to bed.
The next step is to teach your children to think before they act. Let them ask themselves several important questions. First,why do I want to do this? Second,what are my choices? Third,what are the results of the actions? After the three questions,they are sure to make right decisions.
() 1. What's the best way to make children happy and successful?
A. To make children read more books.
B. To make children go to college.
C. To allow children to make their own decisions.
D. To allow children to buy more books.

Thomas and Ann Rose,a couple from Pennsylvania,are well into retirement age: Thomas is in his 70s,and Ann is over 80. Yet,rather than relaxing by the beach,the couple is preparing to become parents. They’ve already done it more than 70 times.
