How to Develop a Good Parent and Child Relation
The relation between a parent and a child is the most important in a child's life. It can make a difference to the child's life much. Positive relations can help children grow healthily and successfully. Here are some ways to help you build a good relation.
Get used to their way. If you learn more about their ideas and opinions, you will communicate or play with them in their way. This will help you get close easily. You can communicate with them freely and find the world in their heart through playing games on the floor instead of at the dinner table.
Make good use of family time. You must make family time a regular (有规律的) and special part of your life. Then your children can know you accept and respect them. You can eat meals together most nights of the week. You can also share sports events, movies and other events.
Join in children's school. If you have some free time, volunteer in the children's school. Then you can know more about your children at school. You can also sit near them when they do homework. This will make them better at schoolwork.
Build trust. It's important for you and your children to believe in each other. You can make them know they can trust you. When you plan to do something, you must finish it. You will set a good example for them.
Listen to children. If children are complaining (抱怨) about school, you must listen to them. Then they will know you are important and trust you. You also need to leave your mobile phone and TV and look at children's eyes. Then you can give your opinions and ideas to them in time.
Have you noticed that time seems to pass more slowly when you're waiting in a long line? But when you're playing with your friends, hours seem like minutes. Of course, time is always passing at the same speed--but why does it sometimes feel different?
A study in the Journal of Neuroscience can tell us the answer. Lead researcher Masamichi Hayashi and his research team in the US have found that it has something to do with neurons (神经元) in our brains that are sensitive(敏感的) to time.
The researchers studied the brain activity of 18 adults who were asked to look at a picture on a screen for a certain length of time. They were then asked to guess how long they'd been looking at the picture. They tended to(倾向于) guess incorrectly in the end when they were asked to stare at the picture for very long or very short periods of time.
After researching into their brain activity further, the researchers discovered neurons that work actively in response to(对…有反应) certain amounts of time, which are called time-sensitive neurons. When they receive repetitive stimulation (重复的刺激)(such as staring at a screen), these neurons finally get "tired" and don't work properly. It doesn't matter whether this amount of time is long or short, as long as the stimulation is repetitive. However, other neurons still work normally, having an influence on the ways we experience time.
When you stand in line or do some other repetitive things, such as math homework, your time-sensitive neurons get tired and cause you to feel like time is going slowly. But when you're doing something more fast-changing, such as playing soccer, you feel like time is flying. Either way, you'd better be careful with your brain when it comes to your experience of time. It may lie.

Christmas for Americans is like the Spring Festival for Chinese people. It is a time when families get together and everyone is happy. {#blank#}1{#/blank#} Before Christmas, everyone goes shopping to buy the gift for a family member, or a friend. Then they put the gifts under the Christmas tree. {#blank#}2{#/blank#}
In the weeks before Christmas, the shops are full of wonderful things that children want.
{#blank#}3{#/blank#} Pets look cute, and some pets are not too expensive to buy — it is easy to buy one quickly. But before you buy a pet, you should ask yourself some important questions, such as" How long do I love this pet?"" Do I have enough time to keep it?"" Can the pet be happy in my family?"{#blank#}4{#/blank#} Because the family thinks the pets are not interesting any more, or they don't have enough time or money for the pets. So in the UK at Christmas time, you can see many signs(标牌) in pet shops:{#blank#}5{#/blank#} Think before you buy one!
A. It is also a time for giving gifts. B. A pet is for life, not for Christmas. C. Most people have to wait until Christmas morning before they can open the gifts. D. Children often ask their parents for a pet, so pet shops are very popular. E. It's sad but true that not long after Christmas, people don't want to keep them. |
