Helicopter parenting is an expression that describes parents who are over focused on their child, like a helicopter hovering ( 盘旋 ) closely over him, whether he needs them or not.
__1.__ As family sizes are getting smaller, more attention is focused on the one or two children and some parents have responded by taking more control over their lives. Also, many parents are making an attempt to develop close bonds with their children, often being overly involved in their lives. Also, some parents always fear that their children may fail in what they want to achieve, so they try to prevent the serious consequence, especially if it seems it could be avoided with parental involvement.
Sometimes the practice continues to spread due to what is called “peer (同龄人) pressure”. When parents observe other parents overparenting, it will pressure them to do the same to make sure that their own children don’t fall behind.
__2.__ For example, by always “doing” for the child, the hovering parents don’t give the child a chance to fully develop his sense of independence. As a result, the child may lack the confidence necessary to do well in school. As an adult, he might find it difficult to deal with life’s challenges. __3.__ Research has shown that helicopter parents have more anxiety because they constantly judge their own value by their children’s success.
__4.__ Experts suggest that you should let your child do tasks that he is physically and mentally capable of doing by himself, which will help to build a self-confident kid. __5.___ Gradually, your child will learn inde
pendence as he steps out on his own. Meanwhile, valuable lessons can occur when making mistakes. So if your child is allowed to make mistakes, he’s given the opportunity to learn from those lessons.A. So how can you avoid being a helicopter parent?
B. There are a number of reasons for helicopter parenting.
C. There may be various consequences of helicopter parenting.
D. The term “helicopter parents” has been widely used in the media.
E. This parenting style also affects the parents.
F. It is also important to let your child struggle while trying new activities.
G. Some parents are just protecting their investment or acting like any other consumer.

Have you ever seen any students whose trousers hang so low you can see their underwear? What do you think of that? Fashionable? Some of today’s teenagers are big fans of such a look . 1..
The headmaster of a school in central Italy has asked students to stop wearing low-rise jeans that expose underwear and part of the body. His request came after a class trip. One day, he saw one boy’s baggy trousers slide to his feet. 2..
But in Italy, a nation that takes fashion very seriously, the suggestion caused a debate among parents, teachers and students. The issue is whether the headmaster’s request will limit students’ freedom—or whether dress in Italian schools is too casual.
3.. “We do not want to kick fashion out.” the headmaster
explained, “but extremes of fashion like this are not right in school.” Many other schools have now requested that their students also stop wearing such trousers.
4.. Ludovica Gaudio, 14, wore extremely low trousers exposing orange underwear in class. It was cold, so she wore a matching orange scarf. 5.. “I don’t really feel comfortable in those sorts of jeans,” said Sarah Lattanzi, “in winter, when dressed like that, it’s quite cold and I am afraid my stomach will ache.”
A．But recently this trend has been at the center of an argument in Italian middle schools.
B．A parents’ group praised the move in favor of good taste, while others advised schools to stop worrying about fashion and fix up old school buildings.
C．He pointed out that this way of dressing is not suitable for school.
D．Most students have simply ignored the request.
E．Another 14-year-old said she would probably respect the request simply for practical reasons.
F．Requests.
G．Schools should pay attention to things more important than students’ clothes.

Conquering Procrastination (拖延症)
Procrastination, the habit of putting tasks off to the last possible minute, can be a major problem in both your career and your personal life. 1. . Therefore, it takes deliberate strategies to avoid becoming our own worst enemy by procrastinating on our intended actions.
Don’t give in to feeling good. 2. . For example, a task at hand makes us feel anxious or overwhelmed, so we give in to feeling good, seeking immediate emotional relief, and we walk away, leaving the task for tomorrow. To cope with this, stay for a minute — don’t walk away. Acknowledge the negative emotions, but get started anyway. Progress on a goal provides the motivation for another step forward.
3. . We’re most likely to procrastinate on tasks that lack structure. This means that in addition to making your task specific, it’s important to reduce the uncertainty about how to continue — and, when it’s time to act, to reduce available distractions (分心的事物) as well. Shut off your e-mail, separate yourself from others as much as you can, and make sure the environment around you is working to strengthen your willpower and focus, not to weaken your efforts.
Make the most of the willpower muscle. A great deal of recent research clearly indicates that willpower is like a muscle. You can exhaust it more quickly than you might imagine and, when you do, you lose your ability to self-regulate your behavior. One immediate method to strengthen your resolve in order to keep you on task is to remind yourself of your values. 4. .
Beating procrastination isn’t rocket science, but it is psychology. Procrastinators can change their behavior — but doing so consumes a lot of mental energy. 5. . It can be done with highly organized cognitive (认知的) behavior treatment.
A. Its side effects include losing opportunities, rushed work, stress, anger, and guilt.
B. Do not perform several tasks at a time.
C. This process of self-recognition strengthens our weakening willpower.
D. When self-regulation fails, it’s often because short-term emotional repair comes before our long-term goals.
E. And it doesn’t necessarily mean one feels transformed internally.
F. It means doing more enjoyable things in place of less enjoyable ones.
G. Reduce uncertainty and distractions.

1.-----------------------
When we speak of a basic human need we mean something necessary to life, something we cannot do without. Food is a basic human need. Without it we would starve to death. Whether in primitive(原始的)countries or in more advanced societies, man’s food needs are the same. 2.
But primitive people eat only the food which can be grown near their homes, whereas people in more advanced societies eat food which is often grown many thousands of miles away from their homes. Primitive people are satisfied with less kinds of food, therefore we can say people’s wants are different although their needs are the same.
3.Clothing is necessary to regulate (调节) the heat of our bodies. In different climates and in different seasons we need more or less clothes. We also dress differently for other reasons. 4.
Shelter, the third of our needs, depends on climate, the skill of the builders, one’s social position, and the material which can be used. 5.The three-bed-roomed house of the average family would not be grand enough for a very rich family, but a modern house with many of the material comforts were denied to the kings and queens in the past.
A. Food, Clothing and Shelter.
B. Human Needs
C. We always change our style of clothing for different occasions, such as work, sports, parties.
D. We all need food to live a healthy life.
E. We want to live comfortably .
F. The simple shelter of the primitive people would not do for us, and yet it satisfied their needs.
G. The same is true of the second of human needs.

Understanding Disabilities
There are around 650 million people in the world that have disabilities，yet most people are still quite ignorant (无知的) about it.
1．What do you think of when you see the word，‘disability’？
Wheelchairs? White sticks? The Paralympics (残奥会)? 1. The legal definition of disability is that someone has a physical or mental impairment that has a great and longterm bad effect on his or her ability to carry out normal daytoday activities.
This affects about 650 million of us，worldwide. 2. Most become disabled during the course of their life. So maybe the term TAB (Temporarily AbleBodied) is better for people who are not disabled，because we may not stay that way forever.
2． 3.
Imagine not being able to see，or not being able to walk. Think of all the things that would be different. How can I get my education? What about my future? Would my friends still want to hang out with me? Will strangers laugh at me in the street? Can I get my own place? What job can I do?
Clearly，having a disability can affect many things in a person's life.
3．Disability and the law
4. It is illegal and extremely unpleasant to discriminate (歧视) against someone who is differently abled. The label ‘disabled’ is not always helpful. Even if someone meets the legal definition，they may not see themselves that way. Instead of thinking about what is wrong with those people，or noticing what they can't do，we should look at how we like to live，and try to make it possible for everyone to join in.
After all—what is normal？ 5. But better understanding would be a start.
A．How can the disabled find better jobs?
B．How does disability affect people?
C．People with disabilities don't need pity.
D．Most of us have never really thought about it.
E．We should consider more for people with disabilities.
F．Only 17% of people with a disability are born with it.
G．There are laws to prevent people with disabilities being treated unfairly.

Urbanization
Until relatively recently, the vast majority of human being lived and died without ever seeing a city. The first city was probably founded no more than 5,500 years ago. _1._ In fact, nearly everyone lived on farms or in tiny rural (乡村的) villages. It was not until the 20th century that Great Britain became the first urban society in history—a society in which the majority of people live in cities and do not farm for a living.
Britain was only the beginning. _2.__ The process of urbanization—the migration (迁徙) of people from the countryside to the city—was the result of modernization, which has rapidly transformed how people live and where they live.
In 1900, fewer than 40% of Americans lived in urban areas. Today, over 82% of Americans live in cities. Only about 2% live on farms. __3.__
Large cities were impossible until agriculture became industrialized. Even in advanced agricultural societies, it took about ninetyfive people on farms to feed five people in cities.__ 4.__ Until modern times, those living in cities were mainly the ruling elite (精英) and the servants, laborers and professionals who served them. Cities survived by taxing farmers and were limited in size by the amount of surplus（过剩）food that the rural population produced and by the ability to move this surplus from farm to city.
Over the past two centuries, the Industrial Revolution has broken this balance between the city and the country.__ 5._ Today, instead of needing ninetyfive farmers to feed five city people, one American farmer is able to feed more than a hundred nonfarmers.
A．That kept cities very small.
B．The rest live in small towns.
C．The effects of urban living on people should be considered
D．Soon many other industrial nations became urban societies.
E．But even 200 years ago, only a few people could live in cities.
F．Modernization drew people to the cities and made farmers more productive.
G．Modern cities have destroyed social relations and the health of human beings.

Money Matters
Parents should help their children understand money. 1. So you may start talking about money when your child shows an interest in buying things, candy or toys, for example.
1. The basic function of money
Begin explaining the basic function of money by showing how people trade money for goods or services. It is important to show your child how money is traded for the things he wants to have. If he wants to have a toy, give him the money and let him hand the money to the cashier(收银员). 2. When your child grows a bit older and understands the basic function of money, you can start explaining more complex ways of using money.
2. Money lessons
Approach money lessons with openness and honesty. 3. If you must say no to a child’s request to spend money, explain, — You have enough toy trucks for now. Or, if the request is for many different things, say, — You have to make a choice between this toy and that toy.
3. 4.
Begin at the grocery store. Pick out two similar brands of a product — a name-brand butter and a generic (无商标产品)，for example. You can show your child how to make choices between different brands of a product so that you can save money. 5. If he chooses the cheaper brand, allow him to make another purchase with the money saved. Later, you may explain how the more expensive choice leaves less money for other purchases.
A. Wise decisions.
B. The value of money.
C. Permit the child to choose between them.
D. Tell your child why he can — or cannot — have certain things.
E. Ask yourself what things that cost money are most important to you
F. Talk about how the money bought the thing after you leave the toy store.
G. The best time to teach a child anything about money is when he shows an interest.

Evaluating Sources (来源) of health Information
Making good choices about your own health requires reasonable evaluation. A key first step in bettering your evaluation ability is to look carefully at your sources of healthy information. Reasonable evaluation includes knowing where and how to fins relevant information, how to separate fact from opinions, how to recognize poor reasoning, and how to analyze information and the reliability of sources. 1.
Go to the original source. Media reports often simplify the results of medical research. Find out for yourself what a study really reported, and determine whether it was based on good science. Think about the type of study. 2.
Watch for misleading language. Some studies will find that a behaviour “contributes to” or is“ associated with” an outcome; this does not mean that a certain course must lead to a certain result. 3. Carefully read or listen to information in order to fully understand it.
Use your common sense. If a report seems too good to be true, probably it is. Be especially careful of information contained in advertisements. 4. Evaluate “scientific” statements carefully, and be aware of quackery(江湖骗术).
5. Friends and family members can be a great source of ideas and inspiration, but each of us needs to find a healthy lifestyle that works for us.
Developing the ability to evaluate reasonably and independently about the health problems will serve you well throughout your life.
A. Make choices that are right for you.
B. The goal of an ad is to sell you something.
C. Be sure to work through the critical questions.
D. And examine the findings of the original research.
E. Distinguish between research reports and public health advice.
F. Be aware that information may also be incorrectly explained by an author’s point of view.
G. The following suggestions can help you sort through the health information you receive from common sources.
