As we all know, games play a very important role in the growth of children. Children should grow along with playing games; for, {#blank#}1{#/blank#} playing games, they can not only acquire knowledge, but also develop their abilities to get along with others.

      However, most children are {#blank#}2{#/blank#}(face) with a completely different situation. Most parents fear that games will prevent children from increasing new knowledge and {#blank#}3{#/blank#} the children will fail in the future examinations. So, instead of{#blank#}4{#/blank#} (let) the children themselves find and learn naturally from their surroundings, they force their children to take part in{#blank#}5{#/blank#} (variety) kinds of classes, learning English, playing{#blank#}6{#/blank#} piano or practicing drawing, etc. What's more, some parents put away the children's toys which are very useful in developing children's {#blank#}7{#/blank#} (imagine) and practical abilities.

      Here is a piece of good advice to those parents: {#blank#}8{#/blank#} you want to expect your child to be able to accomplish something, you must first of all develop his ability to adapt {#blank#}9{#/blank#} the new surroundings. That cram (填鸭式的) education can lead to nothing {#blank#}10{#/blank#} a failure in the children's growth.

Man: Yeah, there are Art Nouveau, and Art Deco, and Art Moderne... I have a hard time {#blank#}3{#/blank#} (keep) it all straight.

Woman: I know what you mean.

Man: For example, it seems to me {#blank#}4{#/blank#} Art Deco and Art Moderne are the same things.

Woman: Well, it's somewhat confusing. They were both popular in {#blank#}5{#/blank#}1930s although Art Deco came a little before Moderne. I think Professor Vargas {#blank#}6{#/blank#} (say) Art Deco started at an exhibition in Paris in 1925. Let me check out my notes. Right, Art Deco was a popular international art design movement from 1923 until the 1940s, {#blank#}7{#/blank#} (affect) the decorative arts such as architecture and {#blank#}8{#/blank#} (industry) design, as well as the visual arts such as fashion, painting, the graphic arts and film.

Man: So, they were about the same time. It's one thing that gets confusing. {#blank#}9{#/blank#} thing is, they seem so similar that it's hard to see why they're {#blank#}10{#/blank#} (consider) different styles.
