4、ay, you will begin to feel more cheerful. The worries and troubles of the coming day will give way. Do not let it discourage you if the moment you leave your room you come across a trouble or a disaster which usually happens. When a schoolboy boasts (自夸) of his strength, and says he can “beat any bo

But how did this slightly unusual, if precious, concept of putting babies on show come in
11、to being?Well, theyre not really for putting babies on show. Firstly, they were created as an area for nurses to take care of all of the new babies, separate from their mothers. Newborn nurseries have been around pretty much since moms started having babies in hospitals. In the early 1900s, hospital
12、s replaced homes as the primary place to give birth. Hospitals built maternity wards (产科病房), and those wards had nurseries with windows.According to Smithsonian. com, a 1943 publication gave two main purposes for the nurseries. The first purpose was to allow the relatives to see the new babies. The
13、windows, however, were to keep the babies safe and clean while they were being admired by relatives. And that sanitary concern is right and reasonable. Babies immune systems (免疫系统) are not yet developed, which has to do with the frightening reason you should be careful about letting people kiss your
14、 new baby. However, the Smithsonian. com article does admit that solid walls would be even more effective at keeping bacteria and viruses out than windows. Not to mention they would be more costeffective. So, yeah . the primary purpose is still to look at the cute babies. Some hospitals would offer
15、individual viewings so that relatives could have some quality time with their new member. In the mid to late twentieth century, these nursery viewings were often the first time fathers got to see their new babies.Today, though, the nurseries mean a lot to many hospital visitors and family members. D

Standing outside the nursery, seeing the babies . can give hope to families trying to deal successfully with something difficult.” Its pretty

Combining work and motherhood is an issue faced by an increasing number of women every day.New research by the Institute for Economic and Social Resea
21、rch could solve this modernday quandary once and for all. In short, it concludes that going back to work after the birth of a child can have a negative impact on a childs development unless you have lots of money.“Growing up in a family in which the mother chooses to work appears to have some advers
22、e consequences for childrens welfare,” the research says. However, it adds that extra money brought in by both parents can lessen some negative effect. The negative effect is also less apparent in children of bettereducated mothers.“It is hard to see anything but gloomy prospects for the children of
23、 single parents (who are generally poor),” the researchers said. This is because in a traditional family where both parents work, extra money brought in by the mother working would compensate (补偿;弥补) for less time spent with the child.In contrast, the researchers said the effects of paternal (父亲的) e
24、mployment were far more modest, but this did not mean that fathers had no role in shaping their childrens wellbeing. Money brought in by the father would be a major resource for helping children develop.The research says, however, that before parents get too carried away by worrying about working, t
25、here are more important issues facing a childs development. Parents personalities and emotional stability(稳定), parenting practices, and the friends and networks that children experience while growing up will be much bigger factors than whether their mothers work.语篇解读:母亲应该在外工作,还是照顾孩子?研究者认为,母亲在外工作弊大于利

64、y parents considered a must for a long time. On the contrary, it means allowing children to have more responsibilities and freedom as they grow older. Generally speaking, the goal is to let go, and letting go requires trust. Parents trust in their children might include “I can count on you to be hon
65、est, to keep your promise, and to treat me with respect.”As teens get older they spend less time with their parents and more time with their friends, on work and other activities away from home. Parents have to trust them to make a lot of decisions. Parents often worry that their teens will make poo
66、r decisions when faced with choices or situations they might not be ready to handle. Trust is a balance between the fear of what might happen with the knowledge of past decisionmaking and responsibility taking. If a teen has always driven the car safely in the past few months, his parents may be wil
67、ling to trust him to drive longer distances. Trust is a twoway street. Fear can also make it difficult for teens to trust their parents. Teens might fear that their parents will take away their freedom, try to control their lives, or embarrass them in front of their friends. Trust between parents an
68、d teens makes it easier for teens to talk with their parents when something goes wrong. The teens must get rid of the fear that their parents will be angry, so that they can feel confident that regardless of what has happened, things can be worked out. To build up trust, parents should listen to tee
69、ns when they freely share the things about themselves and their lives. When teens trust parents enough, they tend to speak openly about their lives, and parents will be in a good position to learn about and affect some of their most important decisions. It is also important to listen to parents so t
70、eens will feel comfortable when sharing their thoughts and experiences with their parents. 参考范文:The goal of parenting is to stop having the children under parents wing and enable children to be more responsible and independent (要点1), in which trust from parents matters a lot. (要点2) It requires cooperation to build up the trust between parents and teens (要点3), because it can rid the teens of fear and help with open communication.(要点4)
