Kathy started at my nursery school at the age of three. She settled into the group easily, and would be first on the slide and highest up the climbing frame. She could put on her coat withouthelp and not only fasten her own buttons but other children"s too. She was a lovely child but unfortunately a scratcher. If anyone upset her or stood in her way,her right hand would flash out fast and scratch down the face of her playmates. Children twice her age would fly in fear from her. This must have been very rewarding for Kathy but obviously it had to be stopped. All the usual ways failed and then I remembered an account by G Atkinson of Highfield School,of how fights in the playgroud had been stopped. No punishment had been given, but the attacker had been ignored and the victims rewarded. So I decided to try this out on Kathy. With a pocketful of Smarties I followed Kathy around. She was so quick that it was impossible to prevent her scratching, but I was determined to stay within arm"s length all afternoon. All was peaceful but then I saw Kathy"s hand moved and heard the scream. Gently I gathered up the little hurt one in my arms and said" Nice , nice sweetie" and I put a Smartie into her mouth. Kathy opened her mouth, expecting a Smartie and then looked puzzled when she got nothing. Soon came another scream , this time from John. While holding him in my arms , I said , " Look , Kathy , a nice Smartie for John" and put it into John"s mouth. A smile of understanding flashed across Kathy"s face. Minutes later,she came to me and said loudly, " Give me a Smartie! I have hurt my finger ! " " No , " I replied , " you"ll get it if someone hurts you." On purpose, she turned and scratched a nearby boy, Tom, and waited quietly while I mothered and rewarded him , then she walked away.She has never scratched a child since. Parents who find older children bullying younger brothers and sisters might do well to replace shouting and punishment by rewarding and giving more attention to the injured ones. It"s certainly much easier and more effective. |

More than 10 years ago ,it was difficult to buy a tasty pineapple (菠萝). The fruits that made it to the UK were green on the outside and , more often than not,hard with an unpleasant taste within. Then in 1996 , the Del Monte Gold pineapple produced in Hawaii first hit our shelves. The new type of pineapple looked more yellowy-gold than green. It was slightly softer on the outside and had a lot of juice inside. But the most important thing about this new type of pineapple was that it was twice as sweet as the hit-and-miss pineapples we had known. In no time, the Del Monte Gold took the market by storm, rapidly becoming the world"s best-selling pineapple variety, and delivering natural levels of sweetness in the mouth, up until then only found in tinned pineapple. In nutrition it was all good news too.This nice-tasting pineapple contained four times more vitamin C than the old green variety. Nutritionists said that it was not only full of vitamins , but also good against some diseases. People were understandably eager to be able to buy this wonderful fruit. The new type of pineapple was selling fast , and the Del Monte Gold pineapple rapidly became a fixture in the shopping basket of the healthy eater. Seeing the growing market for its winning pineapple, Del Monte tried to keep the market to itself. But other fruit companies developed similar pineapples. Del Monte turned to law for help, but failed. Those companies argued successfully that Del Monte"s attempts to keep the golden pineapple for itself were just a way to knock them out of the market. |

When they realized that their daughters, now 3, had come from the same orphanage, they began comparing photos and other information.

Almost every body in America will spend a part of his or her life behind a shopping cart (购物手车) . They will , in a lifetime , push the chrome-plated contraptions many miles. But few will know-or even think to ask-who it was that invented them. Sylvan N. Goldman invented the shopping cart in 1937. At that time he was in the supermarket business. Every day he would see shoppers lugging (吃力地携带) groceries around in baskets they had to carry. One day Goldman suddenly had the idea of putting baskets on wheels. The wheeled baskets would make shopping much easier for his customers , and would help to attract more business.On June 4,1937 , Goldman"s first carts were ready for use in his market. He was terribly excited on the morning of the day as customers began arriving.He couldn"t wait to seethem using his invention.But Goldmanwas disappointed. Most shoppers gave the carts a long look , but hardly anybody would give them a try. After a while. Goldman decided to ask customers why they weren"t using his carts. " Don"t you think this arm is strong enough to carry a shopping basket?" one shopper replied.But Goldman wasn"t beaten yet. He knew his carts would be a great success if only he could persuade people to give them a try. To this end, Goldman hired a group of people to push carts around his market and pretend they were shopping! Seeing this, the real customers gradually began copying the phony(假冒的) customers. As Goldman had hoped, the carts were soon attracting larger and larger numbers of customers to his market. But not only did more people come-those who came bought more. With larger, easier-to-handle baskets , customers unconsciously bought a greater number of items than before. Today"s shopping carts are five times larger than Goldman"s original model. Perhaps that"s one reason Americans today spend more than five times as much money on food each year as they did before 1937-before the coming of the shopping cart. |
