For many years there’s been a debate about rewarding our children. Does it work? Is it effective?

Some people think we should establish a standard with our kids and give them something for meeting this standard as a reward. Punishment is given out in much the same way, but it’s used when certain standards of performance, behavior, etc. have not been met. Kids will often become more dutiful when threatened with punishment, and work harder when promised a valuable reward. The problem is what happens when you aren’t around.

To develop responsible, self-disciplined kids, parents need to promote certain ideas. One of these ideas is that everyone pitches in and helps in your family. Another idea is that there can be enjoyment in doing any task if we choose to make it so. When a task is for a worthy cause ( our family can enjoy the house more because I helped clean it), this message can have a big impact.

This is how we help our kids develop a sense of responsibility. When our children develop this responsibility, they’ll be more disciplined, and they’ll control their emotions better. When we give rewards to our kids, we reduce the sense of responsibility. We also create children who may temporarily perform to a certain standard, but who aren’t likely to continue the performance without the carrot hanging in front of them.

“Rewards and punishment can change behavior for a while, but they cannot change the person who engages in the behavior,” said Alfie Kohn, author of Punished by Rewards. “Good values have to be grown from the inside out.” Parents can help give their children a sense of shared responsibility and discipline which can last a life time. The real rewards that your children receive will be their readiness for the complex and demanding world that waits for them—a world that rewards those who have learned the secrets of discipline responsibility. So keep those shiny rewarding to yourself, and let your kids find their own rewards.

Although many Chinese students say that their knowledge of English grammar is good, most would admit that their spoken English is poor . 1. However, their spoken English does not have to remain“ poor”. I would like to suggest that there may be some reasons for their problems with spoken English.

First, 2. Obviously the better answer is to expand their vocabulary. However , you can speak with a limited vocabulary ,if your attitude is positive .Others will follow you as long as you use the words that you know.

Second, 3. Sometimes they make mistakes when they are speaking because they are shy and nervous. Yet students should remember that their goal should be FLUENCY NOT ACCURACY. Your aim in writing is to be accurate following the rules for grammar and using them to get your message across. But to talk to someone in English, as quickly and well as you can, even though sometimes you may use a wrong word or tense, but it doesn’t matter because the person you are speaking to will understand and forgive you for any mistakes he hears.

Third, 4. You have one mouth but two ears! All that hearing is necessary for you to start speaking.

Fourth, 5. Instead of actively seeking out opportunities to come to them and wonder why their English always remains poor. If you have this proactive outlook, then , you will see English opportunities wherever you go.

A. not enough attention is paid to listening.

B. They fail to find suitable words to express themselves due to a limited vocabulary.

C. most Chinese students are reactive rather than proactive (预先主动的)language learners.

D. They are so stupid that they cannot finish their necessary homework in time.

E. Whenever I speak to some Chinese students, they always say, “My spoken English is poor.”

F. It is no use crying over spoilt milk.

G. They are afraid of making mistake.
