3.As I drive about the Sois in rural Thailand I catch little glimpses of things that barely register on the mind as the scenery flies by; strange things,beautiful things,sad things,interesting things.I wish I could hold on to these scenes; explore them in detail.I wish that I had the time to stop and investigate further as I'm driving by,but time is a commodity(商品)worth more than all the moneys in the world.I wish I had more.
I once had a guy wave to me as I passed him.He yelled out something,almost in greeting,as if he knew me.I wonder if we knew each other once,in another place,another time,and he recognized my soul as I drove by in the truck,and just had to yell a hello.I wish I had stopped and said hello too.
I saw two young girls,dressed in school uniforms.White blouses,blue skirts,books in hand.They were holding hands,talking,walking down the road,jostling(推,搡) each other with their shoulders and teasing each other as they strolled along.As I passed the one closest to the truck looked up.She was close enough to touch almost.Her smiling face,her clear eyes and golden smooth skin are there in my mind's eye now.I can see her as if she were standing next to me.Once in a while herface just pops into my head.Why?Why is she still there?Sometimes I think maybe I'm a bit mad.
I stopped at a road stop on a corner one time.An old lady standing by the roadside walked over to the truck and put her hand on my arm and smiled at me.Her palm was so cool.It must have been a hundred degrees out that day.She said something in Thai and giggle (咯咯地笑) and walked away.Who was she?Why did she touch me?Why was her hand so cool?Why did I just sit there and let her touch me?I didn't flinch(退縮) away.It was almost as if I knew her,and we were just saying a quick hello.Her cool touch almost seemed familiar; like my long dead grandmother's soothing cool touch remembered from when I was just a little boy.
I need more time.I need to stop the truck more often,and just say hello.Things glimpsed along the road are often far more interesting and wonderful than that which seems to consume our daily lives.Slow down.Stop the truck.Get out,and say hello.

14.How to Teach a Child Respect
As a child grows out of being an infant(嬰兒)and begins to notice and react to the world around them,you may find yourself wondering how you possibly pass all of the things that they need to become a responsible,respectful adult.(36)CA child who learns to respect all he meets not only receives respect from others in kind,but learns to respect himself as well.
Instructions
★Show your child respect.This is perhaps the best way to teach your child how to respect others.Listen to your child by giving her your full attention and she will learn to listen to you,understanding how important this is in relationships.
★(37)A The more you say"please"and"thank you"to your child,the more likely he will learn to use them with you and others.Politeness then becomes a normal part of any conversation.
★Agree to disagree.(38)B Explain your decision so that she will understand your reasoning and expect respectful responses.Disagreeing with you doesn't equate to disobedience.
★Control your impulse (沖動(dòng)) to overreact.When a situation arises between you and your child that requires calmness,keep in mind that you are supposed to be modeling correct behavior.(39)D
★Praise,praise,praise!So much is focused on what a child does wrong and how to correct it that the accomplishments are not celebrated enough.(40)F

A.Teach your child manners by using polite requests and responses.
B.Try to remember that a child won't always agree with you.
C.Respect is necessary for a meaningful and successful life.
D.If he sees you lose your temper,he is more likely to respond that way in future.
E.A child may act like he pleases,but will respect being given limits.
F.When you see your child exhibit respectful behavior,make sure he knows just how proud you are of him.
G.Signs such as sudden poor performance in school,behaviors like fears and threats accompany behavior problems in children.
