15．Ways to Create a Happy Household
Every family is different，with different personalities，customs，and ways of thinking，talking，and connecting to one another．There is no one"right"kind of family．But whether parents are strict or tolerant，irritable or calm，home has to be a place of love，encouragement，and acceptance of their feelings and individuality for kids to feel emotionally safe and secure．It also has to be a source of don'ts and limits．Most of us want such an atmosphere to exist in our homes，but with today's stresses this often seems harder and harder to achieve．From time to time it helps to take stock and think about the changes we could make to improve our home emotional climate．Here are a few that will．
How we talk to our children every day is part of the emotional atmosphere we weave．Besides giving them opportunities to be open about how they feel，we have to watch what we say and how we say it．
We often forget how much kids take parental criticisms to heart and how much these affect their feelings about themselves．Psychologist Martin Seligman found that when parents consistently blame kids in exaggerated ways，children feel overly guilty and ashamed and withdraw emotionally．Look at the difference between"Roger，this room is always a pigsty!You are such a boy!"and"Roger，your room is a mess today!Before you go out to play，it has to be picked up．"
One way tells Roger he can never do anything right．The other tells him exactly what to do to fix things so he can be back in his mom's good graces and doesn't suggest he has a permanent character flaw．For criticism to be constructive for children，we have to cite causes that are specific and temporary．
Another constructive way to criticize children is to remind them of the impact their actions have on us．This promotes empathy rather than resentment．
A predictable daily framework，clear and consistent rules，and an organized house make kids--and parents--more relaxed and comfortable，and that means everyone has emotional balance．When conflicts，tensions，or crises occur，the routine is a reassuring and familiar support，a reliable harbor of our lives that won't change．
Think about your mornings．Do your kids go off to school feeling calm and confident？Or are they upset and ill-tempered？
What about evenings and bedtime？Do you have angry fights over homework or how much TV children can watch？A calm bedtime routine is one good medicine for the dark fears that surface when kids are alone in bed with the lights turned out．
Yet a routine that's too inflexible doesn't make room for kids'individual temperaments（气质），preferences，and characters．
Time together is at such a precious in most households that many families，like the Martins，hold regular family meetings so everyone can air and resolve the week's worries as well as share the good things that happened．
When the Martins gather on Friday night，they also take the opportunity to anticipate what's scheduled for the week ahead．That way they eliminate （mostly!） those last-minute anxieties over whether someone has soccer shoes for the first practice，the books for a report，or a ride to a music lesson．
Everyday life is full of opportunities to establish loving connections with our kids．Researchers have found that parents who spend time playing，joking with，and sharing their own thoughts and feelings with their kids have children who are more friendly，generous，and loving．
After all，giving love fosters love，and what convinces our kids that we love them more than our willingness to spend time with them？Many parents say that often they feel most in tune emotionally with their kids when they just hang out together--sprawling on the bed to watch TV，walking down the block together to mail a letter，talking on long car rides when kids know they have a parent's complete attention．At these times the hurt feelings and the secret fears are finally mentioned．
Part of encouraging loving feelings is insisting that kids treat others，including siblings，with kindness，respect，and fairness--at least some of the time．In one family，kids write on a chart in the kitchen at the end of each day the name of someone who did something nice for them．

19．There are two kinds of memory：short-term and long-term．Information in long-term memory can be remembered at a later time when it is needed．The information may be kept for days or weeks．However，information in short-term memory is kept for only a few seconds，usually by repeating the information over and over．The following experiment shows how short-term memory has been studied．
Henning studied how students who are learning English as a second language remember vocabulary．The subjects in his experiment were 75 college students．They represented all levels of ability in English：beginning，intermediate （中等），and native speaking students．
To begin，the subjects listened to a recording of a native speaker reading a paragraph in English．Following the recording，the subjects took a 15-question test to see which words they remembered．Each question had four choices．The subjects had to circle the word they had heard in the recording，some of the questions had four choices that sound alike．For example，weather，whether，wither，and wetter are four words that sound alike．Some of the questions had four choices that have the same meaning．Method，way，manner，and system would be four words with the same meaning．Finally the subjects took a language proficiency test．
Henning found that students with a lower proficiency in English made more of their mistakes on words that sound alike； students with a higher proficiency made more of their mistakes on words that have the same meaning．Henning's results suggest that beginning stud ents hold the sound of words in their short-term memory，and advanced students hold the meaning of words in their short-term memory．
25．Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage？A
A．Information in short-term memory is different from that in long-term memory．
B．Long-term memory can be achieved only by training．
C．It is easier to test short-term memory than long-term memory．
D．Henning gave a separate test on vocabulary to his students．
26．From Henning's result we can see thatA．
A．beginners have difficulty distinguishing the pronunciation of words
B．advanced students always remember words by their meaning
C．it is difficult to remember words t hat sound alike
D．it is difficult to remember words that have the same meaning
27．The word"subject"in the passage meansD．
A．memory                             
B．the theme of listening material
C．a branch of knowledge studied                  
D．the student experimented on
28．The passage centers onC．
A．memory
