How to Teach Your Kids to Respect Elders

 Parenting requires a lot of things. Parents need to teach their kids certain manners and etiquette (禮儀) that kids need to learn from an early stage of life. 1       In fact,it can be considered as one of the most important responsibilities of parents.

1. Be consistent. 2       Kids need to consistently be reminded about what they are supposed to do. So when you are teaching your child to respect an elderly person,try to remind them each time they meet a new one. Thus,after a certain time they will start respecting elders without you reminding them.

2. Observe. Always telling your kids what to do and what not to do may make them upset at times. When you teach them something,give them time to acquire it. 3       If not,you'll have to find a new method.

3. Let them socialize. 4       Some tiny behaviors will indicate how much progress they are making. Even though your prime focus will be on how they are approaching to elders,you may notice them behaving appropriately with other kids as well.

4. Become an example for them to follow. In every kid's nature,there is a tendency (傾向) to imitate others;especially their parents. If they see their parents violating the rules they are setting for them,then whom they will choose to look up for? 5       So,try not to just pretend but obey the things by yourself before you advise your kids.

   A. Kids are really sharp and they may pick your mistakes very quickly.

   B. Take them to places like parks where they can interact with others.

   C. You have to be very patient and remain loving throughout the whole process.

   D. A habit does not form in one day.

   E. Respecting elders is also one of them.

   F. And observe whether they are listening to you or not.

   G. Always remember that encouraging helps kids to stay away from the bad influence that they might get.

We took our school bus to the test center. There had already been a teacher waiting for us in the front of the school gate by the time we arrives. I dressed in my favorite sportswear and ready to go for it.

We were guided to the playground,after that the teacher made us stand in several lines and instructed us with some safety warning. Then we walked into the test center and started to warming up. I did the preparations carefully to make sure my body would function proper when running. Finally the running began and the competition was fierce. I kept close behind a fastest student in my group.

We can see lots of ladies dancing in the square or open spaces after dinner time. It is a very harmonious scene 1        someone fires guns and releases his dogs 2       (threat) these ladies to escape,just because their music is too loud. Some people think this noisy music has 3       (serious) affected their life,so that the dancing ladies should 4       ( drive) out of public places. But I can't agree with them.

I have two reasons to support my views. In the first place,most dancing ladies are retired women,they finally have extra time to do something they like to do―get together to dance,make more new friends 5        share the same habit 6        them,and build up their body as well. As a matter of fact,some dancing lady is a loner without family members at home,and the dancing group is like their second home. We should not take 7        their right of dancing.

In the second place,squares and open spaces are public places;everyone can use them for any actions of entertainment 8        relaxation. If someone complains about the noisy music,they can go 9       (straight) to the dance group and ask them to turn it down. We don't have to solve this problem by an extreme way.

As a consequence,we cannot force the dancing ladies away,because it is a public place,and why can't we show some mercy10       a group of retired ladies who just need a place to dance together?

Because of poor childhood reading habits,most people read up to 10  times slower than they actually could. 1       But,by employing certain basic techniques along with some consistent practice,your reading speed and accuracy will increase without taking away from your overall reading comfort.

1. Identify why you're reading.

Before you start reading,you need to seek out your motivation. 2       Think about why you're reading the book in front of you. Is it for fun? A job? School? Your reasoning will help you find the right frame of mind for the task and aid in absorbing the information more efficiently.

2. Narrow down on the important parts.

3          A good speedreader is also smart. Learn to read selectively and change speeds. Think back to your initial reading goals. If you know which topics are essential,don't be afraid to slow down during the important areas to maximize your retention (i己個(gè)乙力) . 4       Don't let an unimportant paragraph get the best of you.

3. Use a guide.

Training your eyes to pick up the reading pace and maintain it is the final step. Naturally,the eyes tend to pause or drift from the page―even for a split second―during regular reading. In reading an entire book,the amount of time lost can be significant. 5       The easiest way to control them is with a guide,which can be as simple as your index finger (食指) or a pen.

   A. Another thing to consider is the type of book you are going to read.

   B. In that case,find a book and a quiet place to read.

   C. We can't expect an average reader to become a "speedreader" overnight.

   D. So it's critical to keep the eyes on the page.

   E. Conversely,you should also be ready to skip paragraphs and unnecessary words.

   F. Don't try to read through each page at top speed.

   G. Why you read is essential for deciding how fast to read.

One day a lion was sleeping 1      (peace) in the forest when a mouse ran across his paw. Then he ran up the nose of the lion,2      (awaken) the great beast from his sleep. The lion caught the little creature and the mouse,shivering with fear,3          (cry) out

for mercy. "Please have mercy 4        me,King Lion!Please don't kill me!Forgive me this time,and I will never forget it. A day may come 5        I may be able to do something for you to repay your 6       (kind) .”The lion smiled at the mouse's fright and laughed at the thought 7        so small a creature could ever help him,8       he let the mouse go.

Not long after this,the lion was caught in a hunter's net. The angry lion let out a roar that could be heard far and wide throughout the forest. Even the mouse heard 9       . He knew it was the voice of the lion. He recalled that the lion had been merciful to him then. So he ran to the place where the lion lay 10       (catch) in the net of ropes. He said to him, "King Lion,now it's time for me to repay you."

The mouse set to work at once,biting with his sharp little teeth at the heavy ropes that held the lion. Soon the lion was free.

The job of raising children is a tough one. Children don't come with an instruction handbook. And each child is different. So parents sometimes pull their hair out in frustration,not knowing what to do. But in raising children―as in all of life―what we do is influenced by our culture. 1       To Americans,the goal of parents is to help children stand on their own two feet. From infancy (幼年) ，each child may get his or her own room. As children grow,they gain more freedom to make their own choices. Teenagers choose their own forms of entertainment,as well as the friends to share them with. 2       Of course,many young adults still seek their parents' advice and approval for the choices they make. But once they "leave the nest" at around 18  to 21 years old,they want to be on their own,not "tied to their mother's apron strings".

The relationship between parents and children in America is very informal. American parents try to treat their children as individuals―not as extensions (延伸) of themselves. They allow them to realize their own dreams. Americans praise and encourage their children to give them the confidence to succeed. When children become adults,their relationship with their parents becomes more like a friendship among equals. 3       Even as adults,they respect and honor their parents.

Most young couples with children struggle with the issue of childcare. Mothers have traditionally stayed home with their children. In recent years,though,a growing trend is to put preschoolers in a daycare center so Mom can work. Many Americans have strong feelings about which type of arrangement is best. 4       Others insist that mothers are the best caregivers for children. A number of women are now leaving the workforce to become fulltime homemakers.

Being a parent is a tall order. 5       Some people are just deciding not to have children at all,since they're not sure it's worth it. But raising children means training the next generation and preserving our culture. What could be worth more than that?

   A. Naturally then,American parents teach their children basic American values.

   B. It takes patience,love,wisdom,courage and a good sense of humor to raise children.

   C. Some argue that attending a daycare center can be a positive experience for children.

   D. When they reach young adulthood,they choose their own careers and marriage partners.

   E. Disciplining children is another area that American parents have different opinions about.

   F. But contrary to popular belief,most adult Americans don't make their parents pay for

room and board when they come to visit.

   G. When parents find out more about their children's school performance,daily activities and attitudes towards life,they can better direct kids towards positive things in life.
