     It"s a fine line parents walk as they try to guide their kids into adulthood. You want to protect but not
treat too kindly, advise but not control and let them live their own lives-with some input, of course.
     If your child asks you to tie a particular hardtotie knot(绳结)for a project she is working on,just tie
the knot. Don"t start helping with the rest of the project or making suggestions on how to do it. She wants
to do it herself, in her own way. Before offering help or advice which your child has not asked for, count
to ten. Perhaps in those seconds you"ll decide that the advice would do no good,or isn"t really that
important,and you"ll drop it. If the advice still seems important, you will give it,but the pause may lead you
to give it in a more thoughtful way.
    Remember that your child is not you and is not a reflection of you. We make a serious mistake if we
try to shape our children into copies of ourselves, or if we think of them as extensions or reflections of
ourselves. We need to help them to be them, not try to turn them into us or into something that we think
will make us look good.
     Our primary responsibility to our children is not that of telling them momenttomoment or daytoday
how to behave but providing them with a healthy environment in which to develop. For example, one of
the best ways you can help your kids is to work with your community to create safeenough outdoor
places to play in your neighborhood.

      Just like humans, birds too rely on sound to communicate.However, they do not have a "language" in
the true sense of the word and instead produce a variety of sounds to convey different emotions.
     Often, birds recognize their mates (or young) by sound rather than sight.Hungry young birds use
begging calls to let their mothers know it is feeding time.Alarm calls, flight calls and warning calls are other sounds made frequently by adults.
    A new study shows that songbirds rehearse (排演) their songs even in their sleep.The activity in the
brain of the birds when asleep is similar to the brain activity when the birds were awake and singing.The
team used tiny recording devices to measure the activity of individual brain cells in four songbirds both
when they were singing and when they were asleep.
     Apparently the bird stores a song after hearing it, and then rehearses it later in its sleep.Scientists now
believe the birds "dream of songs and tunes" to help them master the fine art of singing and that sleep
plays a key role in the learning process!
     Many songbirds learn to sing listening to adult birds of the same species.However, if separated from
the adults, the young birds develop sounds which are hard to understand instead of normal song patterns.
Researchers carried out an experiment in which a male bullfinch (灰雀) was raised by a female canary
(金丝雀). The bullfinch soon learned the canary"s song and when it was later mated to a female bullfinch, Mr.Bullfinch taught his children the canary"s songs.
     Last year, a British survey of London"s songbirds showed that the city"s birds are losing their tunes.
Birds could hardly hear one another, over the traffic noise；as a result, instead of copying the sweet
notes of the adults, young birds were copying the sounds they heard most often, namely car horns and
beeping cellphones!

1. According to the passage, birds recognize their mates by ________.
A. using their own words
B. listening to their sounds
C. looking at their appearances
D. singing the same songs

2. What kind of calls might a young bird make most often according to the passage?
A. Flight calls.
B. Alarm calls.
C. Begging calls.
D. Warning calls.

3. The story of Mr.Bullfinch suggests that ________.
A. young birds learn to sing from whom they live together with
B. birds only learn how to sing from the same adult species
C. it"s not easy for adult birds to teach young birds songs
D. a canary"s song is more beautiful than a bullfinch"s

4. From the last paragraph we know that ________.
A. traffic noise makes young birds become deaf
B. birds in the city can sing as sweetly as those in the wild
C. birds in the city recognize their mates mainly by sight
D. noise pollution causes much trouble for birds in the city

5. What can we infer from the passage?
A. The eyesight of songbirds is very poor in most cases.
B. There"s no brain activity when a bird is sleeping.
C. Birds have something in common with humans in terms of communication.
D. Different songbirds usually develop the same song patterns.
