Research shows that playful teasing between parents and their children can be a way to strengthen relationships, bring up difficult topics, and just have fun. 1. Carol Bishop says, “You need to recognize if they are enjoying it,” There are also rules about what is okay and not okay to tease your child about. 2. Instead, tease kids about safe topics, like a messy room, or things that can be easily changed.

Teasing should also be a two-way street. 3. If they go too far making fun of you, be sure not to blow up. Instead, help them to learn boundaries and what may hurt others.

Teasing about a disappointing grade should only be used as a gentle reminder to study or do homework. It shouldn't be focused on the ability because that could make the situation worse. It’s not wrong to say to your child, “I'm disappointed that you got a C.”4. You need to examine if there is a learning disability or maybe they are depressed or being bullied.

From monsters under the bed to darkness and noises, fears that may seem silly to an adult may be very real to a child. 5. In fact, it could make them worse. Teasing a child who is frightened about something is not a way for them to expand their horizon—you need to make them feel secure.

A.Kids often feel hurt when teased by others.

B.Topics like appearance and weight are prohibited.

C.You have to be willing to let your child tease you about things.

D.But then you must work with them to figure out the cause.

E.But parents need to recognize when teasing becomes hurtful.

F.Laughing or teasing won't help them overcome their fears.

G.Teasing a child about sports performance can cause a child to quit the sport.

Texting is a great way to communicate and teenagers are doing just that. New research shows that on average, teens are sending 2,000 text messages a month, and doctors say it’s causing injuries.

13-year-old Bailey Baker keeps using her thumbs, sending text messages to her friends again and again. The past March may have been her best month ever, texting 8,000 times. Now, she says she’s feeling the pain. “Just mainly back and neck problems and thumb numbness,” she says.

Baylor-Garland Dr. Jane Sadler is seeing more and more teens who simply text until it hurts. She says parents, including Bailey’s mom, have no idea how much their kids are texting. “I was thinking she was texting about 25 texts a day,” says Lisa Baker. “Wrong! We’ve uncovered a problem.” It didn’t take Dr. Sadler long to find the problem. She gave Bailey the once-over and learnt that Bailey had developed Texting Teen Tendinitis(肌腱炎)

“A lot of them report pain in their thumbs, back and neck,” says Dr. Sadler. “When we look into it and examine a little bit further, we see texting is the main cause of the problem.” Dr. Sadler says back pain is caused by poor posture while texting. Bailey often texts for up to 2 hours a day; that’s a lot of wear and tear on the thumbs which over time, can break down. Dr. Sadler tells over-texting teens to look into the future. “What I tell them is ‘Hey, you might be normal now, but when you are 40 or 50, you can get arthritis (关节炎).’”

Dr. Sadler recommends limiting texting to 50 a day, and keeping good posture. Dr. Sadler also says touch screens are easier on the thumbs than keyboards and hand exercises are great to build up those muscles, making it easier to text.

1. How many text messages did Bailey Baker send a day on average last month?

A. Less than 226.     B. About 230.            C. About 267.            D. More than 300.

2. Because of texting, Bailey Baker suffers from the following problems EXCEPT ______.

A. back pain               B. neck pain               C. headache              D. thumb numbness

3. What does the underlined part in Paragraph 3 mean?

A. She gave Bailey Baker a quick examination.

B. She solved Bailey Baker’s problem at once.

C. She gave Bailey Baker a piece of advice.

D. She let Bailey Baker send a text message again.

4. What can we conclude from Paragraph 4?

A. Teenagers won’t get hurt if they stop texting right now.

B. Poor posture while texting is the main cause of injuries.

C. Thumbs won’t ache if teens text for no more than 2 hours a day.

D. Over-texting may have a bad effect on people in the long run.

Research shows that childhood friendships are important indicators of future success and social adjustment. Children's relationships with peers (同龄人) strongly influence their success in school, and children with fewer friends are more likely dropping out of school, becoming sad and other problems.

Making and Keeping Friends Is More Than Child's Play

When 6-year-old Rachel returned to school on a recent Monday morning, her eyes immediately scanned the playground for her friend Abbie. Though they were only separated by a weekend, the girls "ran right into each other's arms and hugged," recalls Rachel's mother Kathryn Willis of Gilbert. "It was like a scene from a movie."

Most parents instinctively (本能地) know that having friends is good for their child. Experts agree that friendship is not simply child's play, but a powerful predictor of social adjustment throughout life.

A Skill for Life

"Childhood friendships serve as a very important training ground for adulthood," says Dr. Robbie Adler-Tapia, psychologist with the Center for Children's Health & Life Development.

Researcher William Hartup states, "Peer relations contribute significantly to both social and cognitive (认知的) development." Hartup concludes that the single best childhood predictor of adult social adaptation is not school grades or classroom behavior, but rather, how well a child gets along with other children.

The work of Arizona State University proves that just as being able to make and keep friends is beneficial to kids, so is the lack of friends detrimental.

Good Friendships Don't Just Happen

Experts agree that it is basic for children to develop high-quality friendships. But, researchers warn, these friendships don't necessarily just happen. Often, a good friendship begins with involved （卷入，牵连）parents.

Valley psychologist Dr. Lynne Kenney Markan believes kids should be taught social skills in much the same way they are taught math and reading.

Bad Company

Many parents worry about the quality as well as the quantity of their child's friendships. "When she was in 1st grade, her supposed 'best friend' began calling her names and threatening to hurt her," says Mindy Miller. "My daughter wasn't allowed to talk to or even look at other girls in her class. It really crushed (压跨) her spirit. I told my daughter she didn't need a 'friend' like that."

"I'll bend over backwards to help my son get together with a friend I think is good for him," Adler-Tapia says. "I don't look at it as manipulation (操纵), just positive parental involvement. "

1.The example of Rachel and Abbie is used to show that ________.

A．childhood friendship is of great benefit to their growth

B．a positive friendship helps children solve emotional and physical problems

C．it is a proven（被证明的） fact that peer friendship is the most rewarding experience throughout life

D．Rachel missed her friend Abbie very much because of their separation of one weekend

2.The underlined word "detrimental" could be replaced by _______.

A．valuable          B．disappointing       C．accurate          D．harmful

3.We can learn from the passage that high-quality friendship most probably results from ______.

A．social skills and good study habits

B．school grades and classroom behaviors

C．academic success and social adaptation

D．positive parental involvement and social skills

4.From the last paragraph we can conclude that Dr. Robbie Adler-Tapia agrees that ______.

A．parents should regard making friends as something that just happens

B．it's wise for parents to support and encourage healthy peer relationships

C．parents only need to help their children to deal with difficult social situations

D．parents are supposed to encourage their children to make as many friends as they can

A new research shows that in Britain more and more people are returning to the old tradition that the whole family have a meal at table. Worrying about the obesity and breakdown of a family, people change their eating habits so greatly, according to analysis. They find the number of the family having a meal together increases by 5% from 2002 to 2004, and most people who have meals with their family come from the rich social class.

The new discovery makes doctors and the people struggling against obesity extremely excited. Giving up the tradition that the whole family have a meal together is exactly one of the reasons for a series of problems including children’s overweight. If a child has a meal in front of the television or the computer alone, he will often eat some fast food.

Jason Collins is one of the persons returning to the old tradition. Collins is a manager of a bake(烘面包) house. He finds after he gets used to having a meal at home with his child, the child becomes much more obedient(听话的). Dr. Jin is a child psychologist, and she expresses welcome to this result of the study.  She says it can make parents have a very good chance to chat with the child when the whole family have a meal together.

1. What makes people change their eating habit back to the old tradition in Britain?

2. We can infer from the passage that _______.

3. How do the people who hope to lose weight feel about the new discovery?

4. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?
