world around them.So play is a wonderful time to be introducing science to them.Think of the games that we used to play:Don"t Spill the Beans. Don"t Break the Ice. the Telephone Game. Lincoln Logs. each of
these games has science behind it.
Children are by nature curious (好奇的) as they feel out the world. trying to make sense of what is

space projectors. or Hydro Greenhouses.

Although parents" first reaction is usually to deny (否认) favoring one child over another, most
parents end up admitting that they do it, according to Dr Kenneth Hardy."All parents have favorites, "
he believes.
Hardy said children were often aware of it, too.The kids didn"t hesitate to nod when asked whether
their mother favored one."If you ask two children from the same family which one is the favorite and
both point to themselves, there"s no problem, " he says."If both kids point one way, you know you
have a problem."
"It seems that she doesn"t love me, " Jamie started to say when he was asked if his mother loved
him, and then corrected himself, "She does love me, but she seems to like Chris more." Their mother
said she loved both boys, but sometimes found that Jamie"s complaining could make her dislike him."I
don"t think with Chris I ever have that same feeling."She also said she found Chris more lovely.
Like the other mothers, Dianne Ely said she felt guilty when she realized how much she was favoring
one of her children.She thought it was just not right to treat her children differently.
Like Jamie, Morgan Johnson is aware that__________in her family."They don"t like me that much, "
Morgan said."It doesn"t make me feel angry, but it makes me feel sad, "she added.
But_Hardy_said_parents_should_keep_in_mind_that_each_of_their_children_had_good_and_bad
_qualities.The most important thing, Hardy said, was for parents to admit the favoritism."It"s not a horrible
thing for a parent to look at herself in the mirror and say, "You know what, I do like one more than the
other."I think that"s a good sign, and a good healthy first start."

It is often considered that the schoolyard is where bullies(欺负)go to make other kids a miserable
school life, but a new study suggests that classrooms are another popular place.
The study, presented recently at the American Public Health Association"s yearly meeting in
Philadelphia, is based on the results of the research from more than 10,000 middleschool students
who answered questions online.
Of those researched,43%said they"d been physically bullied within the last month.A bit more than
half said they"d been laughed at in an unfriendly way, and half reported being called hurtful names.
About onethird said groups had excluded (排斥)them to hurt their feelings.28% said their belongings
had been taken or broken；21%said someone threatened to hurt them.According to the results,
twothirds of the students said they"d been bullied in more than one way over the previous month.
The study authors mentioned that 8% of the students who answered said they"d missed school at
least once during the school year because of fear of being bullied. 25% said they"d taken other actions,
such as missing recess(课间), not going to the bathroom or lunch, missing classes, or staying away from
some area of the school to escape from experiencing a bully.

| The evidence for harmony may not be obvious in some families. But it seems that four out of five
young people now get on with their parents, which is the opposite of the popularlyheld image of unhappy
teenagers locked in their room after endless family quarrels.
An important new study into teenage attitudes surprisingly shows that their family life is more
harmonious than it has ever been in the past."We were surprised by just how positive today"s young
people seem to be about their families, "said one member of the research team."They"re expected to
be rebellious(叛逆的 )and selfish but actually they have other things on their minds; they want a car
and material goods, and they worry about whether school is serving them well.There"s more negotiation(商议) and discussion between parents and children, and children expect to take part in the family
decisionmaking process.They don" t want to rock the boat. "
So it seems that this generation of parents is much more likely than parents of 30 years ago to treat
their children as friends."My parents are happy to discuss things with me and willing to listen to me, "
says 17yearold Daniel Lazall. "I always tell them when I"m going out clubbing.As long as they know
what I"m doing, they"re fine with it."Susan Crome, who is now 21, agrees."Looking back on the last 10
years, there was a lot of what you could call negotiation. For example, as long as I"d done all my
homework, I could go out on a Saturday night. But I think my grandparents were a lot stricter with my
parents than that."
Maybe this positive view of family life should not be unexpected. It is possible that the idea of
teenage rebellion is not rooted in real facts. A researcher comments, "Our surprise that teenagers say
they get along well with their parents comes because of a brief period in our social history when
teenagers were regarded as different beings. But that idea of rebelling and breaking away from their
parents really happened during the 1960s when everyone rebelled. The normal situation throughout
history has been a smooth change from helping out with the family business to taking it over." |
| 1. What is the popular images of teenagers today? |
| A. They worry about school.
B. They dislike living with their parents.
C. They have to be locked in to avoid troubles.
D. They quarrel a lot with other family members. |
| 2. The study shows that teenagers don"t want to ________. |
| A. share family responsibility
B. cause trouble in their families
C. go boating with their family
D. make family decisions |
| 3. Compared with parents of 30 years ago, today"s parents________. |
| A. go to clubs more often with their children
B. are much stricter with their children
C. careless about their children"s life
D. give their children more freedom |
| 4. According to the author, teenage rebellion________. |
| A. may be a false belief
B. is common nowadays
C. existed only in the 1960s
D. resulted from changes in families |

A new study suggests that the roundtheclock(24小时的)availability that cell phones
have brought to people"s lives may be taking_a_toll_on family life.The study,which followed
more than 1,300 adults over 2 years, found that those who consistently used a mobile phone
throughout the study period were more likely to report negative "spillover" between work and
home life-and,in turn,less satisfaction with their family life.
Spillover essentially(本质上)means that the line between work and home begins to become
unclear.Work life may invade home life when a parent is taking jobrelated calls at home,for
instance-or family issues may start to take up work time.For example,a child may call mum at
work,telling her "microwave exploded",explained Noelle Chesley,an assistant professor of
sociology at the University of WisconsinMilwaukee and the author of the study. The problem
with cell phones seems to be that they are allowing for even more spillover between work and
home.
This may be especially true for working women,the study found. Among men,consistent use
of mobile phones seemed to allow more work issues to creep (潜入)into family time.But for
women,the spillover tended to go in both directions. Being "connected" meant that work cut into
home time,and family issues came into work life.
Cell phones seem to be opening more lines for stressful exchanges among family members.
But there may be ways to control the spillover,according to Chesley.Employers, she said,could
look at their policies on contacting employees after hours to make sure their expectations are
"reasonable"．For their part,employees could decide that cell phones go off during family time,
Chesley said. |
| 1．What does the underlined phrase "taking a toll on" probably mean in Paragraph 1 |
A．Explaining.
B．Founding.
C. Damaging.
D．Extending |
| 2．According to Chesley,what is the best solution to the problem caused by cell phones? |
A．Refuse to use cell phones.
B. Separate work hours from family time.
C. Ignore coming calls during family time.
D. Encourage women to stay at home. |
| 3．We can learn from the passage that ________. |
A．cell phones make the line between work and home unclear
B．cell phones seem to be convenient to families
C．cell phones affect men as much as women
D．we can do nothing to solve the problem |
| 4．What is the main idea of the passage? |
A．How to control the negative spillover caused by cell phones.
B. Cell phones cause negative "spillover" between work life and home life.
C. Consistent use of cell phones makes people feel less satisfied with their work.
D. How work life invades home life. |
