24、it. And even if he does not become very rich, he wants people to think that he is. That is what “keeping up with the Joneses” is about.

26、ich people had servants, Momand and his wife also hired a servant and gave big parties for their new neighbours.It was like a race, but one could never finish his race because one was always trying to keep up. The race ended for Momand and his wife when they could no longer pay for their new way of
27、life. They moved back to an apartment in New York City.Momand looked around him and noticed that many people do things just to keep up with rich lifestyle of their neighbors.

33、 home?Not size, of course. Ive been in some of the grandest houses in America, and its readily apparent that no one lives there. Earlier this year, I had dinner in a mud hut in Ethiopia, where we sat on chairs next to the hostesss bed - a home that had more warmth than any house Ive been in since.No
34、w John Edwards is exploring what makes a house a home in his just-released Home: The Blueprints of Our Lives. There Edwards writes, “This is a book about homes, the values they rest on, the dreams they are filled with, and the people they have shaped. The houses and circumstances are different, but
35、much of what you find inside will be familiar.” Whether youre sitting in an airport right now, waiting to fly to your childhood home for Thanksgiving, or in your own home waiting for the relatives to arrive, you know what hes talking about. Weve lived in our townhouse for 21 years. The loose windows
36、 make noise in the wind. The fireplace is so shallow it holds only one log. The kitchen window offers a view of the world passing by. Its where friends sit on the kitchen counter drinking wine while dinner is being fixed. I lived there for only 18 years, but it will always be my true home. Even the
37、lamp in the west living room window, which I could see far down the road when driving home late at night, still shines.

When this happens, a parent tries to help the child to do the right thing. When this does not work, the parent usually punishes th
42、e child.There are many things that a parent can do. One thing that people have done is to spank the child. When a parent spanks a child, they will use their hand or a hard object to strike them on their bottom. This is meant to show the child that they have done something wrong.One parent remembers
43、being spanked when he was a child. His parents used a wooden spoon. When he spanked his own children with his hand, he saw that he put a red mark on his childs leg. He never did that again.One problem with spanking is that it teaches the child to hit someone when they do not like what the other pers
44、on is doing. Another problem with spanking is that the parent is usually angry and can hit the child too hard. Sometimes parents will use spanking for everything and not try other ways to get the child to do the right thing.Many parents are not sure of what to do instead of spanking. Some people thi
45、nk that their religion（宗教）tells them that spanking is okay. Some think that the law lets them do it. The courts (法院) say that parents have the right to teach their children how to behave.Other things should be tried before a parent decides to spank a child. Telling the child exactly what is wanted f
46、rom them can be one thing. Giving a child more than one choice is another thing that can be tried.
