During the Second World War, I met a housewife from Chicago who told me how she discovered for herself that “the cure for worry is to get completely occupied by doing something constructive.” I met this woman and her husband in the dining car while I was traveling from New York to my farm in Missouri.
This couple told me that their son had joined the armed forces the day after the attack on Pearl Harbor. The woman told me that she had almost ruined her health through worrying over that only son. Where was he? Was he safe? Would he be wounded? Killed?
When I asked her how she overcame her worry, she replied：“I got busy.” She told me that at first she had dismissed her maid and tried to keep busy by doing all her housework herself. But that didnˈt help much. “The trouble was，” she said, “that I could do my housework almost mechanically. So I kept on worrying. Then I realized I needed some new kind of work that would keep me busy both mentally and physically. So I took a job as a saleswoman in a store.”
“That did it，” she said. “I immediately found myself involved in a lot of activities：customers crowding around me, asking for prices, sizes, colors. Never a second to think of anything except my immediate duty. And when night came, I could think of nothing except getting off my aching feet. As soon as I ate dinner, I fell into bed and instantly became unconscious. I had neither the time nor the energy to worry.”
1.Doing housework failed to work on the woman because ________.
A. it was too boring to do housework
B. she didnˈt like doing housework at all
C. there wasnˈt much housework to do
D. she didnˈt need to use her mind to do housework
2.Why did the woman take a job as a saleswoman?
A. She had to work to support her family.
B. She needed a more effective way to defeat her worry.
C. She wanted to make her life more colorful.
D. She enjoyed being surrounded by people.
3.After a dayˈs work as a saleswoman, the woman ________.
A. felt extremely tired
B. fell into unconsciousness because of worries
C. seemed quite disappointed
D. lost her appetite

A couple of years ago, when my older daughter was 8,she gently told my wife and me that she’d gotten too old for us to read her books anymore. We didn’t try to talk her out of it or tell her many benefits of reading aloud to a child (even after they can do so themselves). 1.
Two weeks after stopping our bedtime readings, though, my older daughter asked whether we could start again. 2. As she later explained, “Everyone likes to be read to, even adults.” We’ve continued uninterrupted since. Right now, we’re deep into Philip Pullman’s “The Golden Compass.”
3. In most of the studies, people found that reading aloud appeared to strengthen parents’ feelings of competence, improve the quality of their relationships with their children and even reduce parental stress or depression.
Reading aloud to children improves a young mind’s cognitive development (thinking, problem-solving, decision-making) and reduces behavior problems, research shows. As with playing board games, reading to them increases concentration and attention spans.
And yet, too many of us stop before the kids want us to. 4.
The conversations children have around themes and ideas in books help them make sense of the world. And it’s a joyful way to connect and be close with your kid. While reading in bed, my daughters and I lie next to each other, sometimes leaning into one another. 5. It’s as high a quality as quality time gets.
A. She simply enjoyed the practice too much to let it go yet.
B. When she was a young child, we began a nearly daily reading called Milk & Books.
C. We were disappointed but respected her.
D. Reading aloud was significantly beneficial to children and their parents.
E. In Australia, more than a third of children aged 6 to 1l whose parents had stopped reading to them wanted to continue.
F. We laugh and are surprised together and have deep conversations about the novels.
G. It’s one of the most virtuous circles of parenting and teaching.
