Every li
17、ttle boy wants to grow up to be just like his father, and every little girl thinks her father is the smartest man on the earth. Its not very easy to be a good father, but its not that difficult either. Children will truly enjoy spending time with their fathers, not just when they are kids, but even
18、when they are adults. Not all children communicate well with their fathers. Communication is often left to mothers, while fathers dispense advice as and when necessary. Dont expect all conversations to centre around the dinner table. Go to your childrens bedrooms and talk to them about school, their
19、 teachers or their friends. Remember that the conversation cannot be one-sided. When your children open up to you, you also need to open up to them.

20、silly reason to be upset, dont voice your opinion. It may be silly to you, but to your children it is important enough.

25、ustry in Beijing is expected to become more attractive both as a job and as an industry. Sources at the Beijing Peoples Political Consultative Conference said resistance to home service work is melting away from minds of the citys laidoff workers. The Conference suggested the establishment of munici
26、pal (市政的) centers which supervise property management, household mending and installation, and house keeping services. Modern city life is creating a need for home services. This will create job opportunities for laidoff workers, said vice director of the Social Judicial Committee of the Conference.
27、 Beijing residents have long desired a home service industry. The demand is expected to drive new economic growth. There are few high quality home help services in Beijing and customers are always complaining. In the past, few laidoff workers worked as home helpers, jobs largely taken by young women
28、 from the countryside. At the same time, some city residents have not felt safe trusting rural girls with modern household machines or with their small children. Many people would pay more for reliable house keepers who are more familiar with city life, but they have had no way of getting one, even
29、though the city is home to thousands of laidoff workers. By the end of June this year, there were 30, 600 jobless workers in the city. Most of them are women in their 40s, who are not blessed with particular skills and who have had their work ethics shaped by the planned economy. Many of them were a
30、t a loss when they first realized they had lost their jobs and a way of life they had got used to for decades. They never imagined being laidoff by state; they never considered other kinds of employment. For them, the private sector (领域) meant taking risks; housekeeping implied lower social status.

43、lace. Asians are immigrating to Canada and the United States in larger numbers than ever before. Most Asians immigrate because they believe that they can give their children a better education in the West. In Asia, especially in China, Japan, and Korea, it is difficult to go to university. Students
44、must first pass the strict national examination. However, in Canada and the United States, it is easy to go to university, and anyone who wants to go can go. As a result, Asian parents decide to leave their countries so that their children can go to university. The problem is that when Asians arrive
45、, they discover that finding a job and making money are more difficult in the West than in the East. Also, they find that they are very lonely, and that they miss their homes. Because of these two reasons, most Asian parents decide to go back to work while their children study in the West. Therefore
46、, these children become “satellite kids”, and most of their parents do not know how sad it is to be a “satellite kid”. Only until now are Canadians and Americans discovering the “satellite kids” problem. Because these children do not speak English and because their parents are not there to take care
47、 of them, they are often absent from school. To be a “satellite kid” means to grow up in a country where you know you are different and where you cannot make friends because you do not speak English well. Also, it means to grow up alone, because your parents are elsewhere. What these “satellite kids
