Life's greatest joys and its greatest sorrows often come from the relationships we have developed with others.

In our world today,it seems that most people struggle for happiness through pleasant physical surroundings and economic security.These are great,but if there is conflict in human relations,these things do not bring happiness. Think about the last time you were having an argument or a disagreement with one of your co-workers,your boss, your friend,or a family member.Was it easy or difficult to focus on your priorities(優(yōu)秀考慮的事)?Even though you might have been having some success m many areas of your life,did you find yourself still feeling some discomfort due to the stress in that particular relationship?On the contrary,you may know people who are happy in great poverty and with physical stress if they have meaningful,pleasant relations with people around them.

Consider the most relationship that you have ever had with any individual(個(gè)人).To some degree it probably is or was marked by absolute honesty,deep levels of trust,respect for that person's skills,knowledge,or abilities,open communication,acceptance of differing views,and little concern for images(形象).

In effort to make the relationships we currently have the best that they can be,remember that persuasion usually cannot take place unless there is some sort of close,meaningful connection between the two people involved.The result will be a relationship of respect and progression.

Many of us have difficulty in accepting the faults and weaknesses of others; co-workers,work leaders,family members,or members of our social or religious groups.Our tendency to demand perfection of others can cause us to lose sight that we,ourselves,are less than perfect.Undoubtedly,there are differences among us.Some of us are even cruel and unpleasant.Others may have cultural differences that are blocks that affect us.But learning to look for the similarities instead of those things that set us apart,bearing differences,and seeing the best in others rather than the worst will lead to relationships of deep respect and lasting value.

Parents do need to teach their kids financial responsibility and that money is earned.Still,many child-development experts agree that tying a child's allowance to chores can be a slippery slope.Here's why.

Susie Walton,master instructor at Peace in Your Home advises to keep chores and allowances totally separate. "Allowance is one thing.When it comes to chores,life skills,responsibilities-that's a whole different thing." says Walton.

Walton says, "When kids aren't doing a chore,you don't say, 'Well,there goes your allowance.' You're going to sit them down and ask what's going on. 'We are a team.We are a family.We've got to have them done.' "

Besides,by paying children for chores with an allowance,you'll also be sending the message that work isn't worth doing unless they're getting paid for it.

There are times when it would make sense to pay kids for chores.Most financial and child-development experts agree that it's a fine idea to pay children money for extra jobs that are outside their normal set of chores,such as washing windows,washing the car or helping to clean out the garage-especially if the child is saving for a big item. This may even develop an entrepreneurial(企業(yè)家的)spirit to think outside of the box to earn money.

For parents who are concerned that their children won't learn the value of a dollar if the allowance isn't tied to household chores,note that there are still plenty of money management skills to be learned from a straight allowance. Depending on the age,kids can be made responsible for paying for their own toys or snacks.Some parents even require that kids set aside a percentage of their allowance toward savings.

"I really like having my own money," says Kevin,9. "It's up to me if I want to buy the cheap toy now,or save and get the better toy." And that's a good lesson to learn at 9 years old.

No matter which allowance route you take in parenthood,kids will feel empowered by being able to handle their own money.

1.According to Susie Walton,parents should________.

A. teach kids the value of work

B. pay kids allowances after they finish chores

C. separate chores from allowances completely

D. tell kids to take responsibility for earning money

2.Which of the following would most financial and child-development experts agree with?

A. A kid's allowance should be tied to all the chores.

B. Kids can be paid allowances for their extra jobs that are outside their normal set of chores.

C. Kids should be paid allowances to develop their entrepreneurial spirits.

D. Kids should be taught to think outside of the box.

3.What does the author think of Kevin's action?

A. He approved of what Kevin said.

B. He didn't give any opinion about Kevin's action.

C. He thought it proper for a boy of 9 to buy cheap toys.

D. He worried about Kevin's action.

4.What's the main idea of the text?

A. Parents should not give kids allowances.

B. Whether kids should do chores at home.

C. Whether kids should keep allowances for later use.

D. Whether parents should pay kids for chores.

I’d like to know that we should play one kind of music or different style to start with. And is it enough to practice only at weekends? Why can we get more chances to perform? In addition, we’d appreciate if you would be come up with a name for our band.

Thanks to your considering our above questions, Mr. Cousins. I’m looking forward to your reply.

Yours sincerely,

18.Competitors who wear red win more than those that are dressed in any other color,according to study in Germany.
(36)EExperts believe that red could make individuals and teams feel more confident as well as being perceived by others as more aggressive.
(37)F On the other hand,the results could suggest that the success of those teams has given those that wear the red color more confident.
The study,by German sports psychologists at the University of Munster,was reported in New Scientist magazine.They showed video recording of taekwondo matches to 42 experienced referees.One fighter wore blue and the other wore red.They then showed them the same recordings but digitally manipulated the clothing to exchange the colors.(38)B"If one competitor is strong and the other is weak,it won't change the outcome of the fight,"said Norbert Hagemann,who led the study."(39)G"
In 2004 scientists at Durham University also looked at how color influenced sporting competitiveness.They analyzed Olympic contest sports such as boxing,taekwondo,and freestyle wrestling and found that nearly 55% of which were won by the competitor in red.
"(40)D"said Robert Burton,one of the researchers.

A.It is the color of fire and is often associated with energy,danger,strength,power,and determination.
B.The fighters wearing red were given an average of 13percent more points than when they wore blue.
C.The study shows that football shirts from worldwide teams such as Arsenal,Liverpool,sell successfully.
D.It is reasonable that wearing red makes individuals feel more confident,although this hasn't yet been tested.
E.Researchers found that those who wear red tops,jackets or clothing score 10percent more in any competition than if they were in another color.
F.The findings could explain why Manchester United,Liverpool and Arsenal have been so successful.
G.But the closer the levels,the easier it is for the color to tip the scale.
