①Our body language tells the world a lot about us. But can it change the way in which we see ourselves? The answer is Yes.
②Two scientists, Amy Cuddy and Danna Carney, who know much about body language, did a famous research. According to the result of their research, body language can change the chemistry of our brains. Some high-power body language can make you become confident. For example, you will feel confident when you hold your head high; you will feel confident too when you put your arms out wide as if you have won a race. However, some low-power body language can make you feel unconfident, such as sitting with your arms close to the body, sitting with your legs together or walking with your head down.
③Why do all these happen? The scientists think the reason is that body language changes the amount of something special in our brains. It's called hormone(激素). One kind of hormone can increase your confidence; another kind can increase your stress(压力). But too much stress hormone is bad for learning. It also increases the risk of health problems.
④The result of the research is helpful for your studies. Please remember: try to use more high-power body language in your studies, and you will be confident. That is, always believe you can study well, act as if you were doing well, then you will make greater progress in real life.
Perhaps you are looking for an after school hobby, or something to do on the weekends. Gardening with children can be a great way.
Most children love to get dirty. Gardening is a good reason to let them touch the soft earth and enjoy sunshine outside. It can make them stronger.
Gardening can make children learn about their favorite plants at an early age. It helps them know where their food comes from. Children can also understand why it's important not to waste food.
Don't mind if it takes your children some time to take care of the plants. Be sure to encourage them to keep watering and feeding their plants as needed until the end of the growing season. Gardening is a great way to teach your children about responsibility.
Children always have questions. Gardening can help them develop their curiosity (好奇心). A few minutes in a garden, kids will start asking questions. Feel free to let them guide the conversation. Make sure to take the chance to learn together about anything you can't answer.
Start with small projects that children can follow and enjoy, and get them to choose what they want to plant.
