4．After commuting，cooking dinner and doing household chores，the average parent has just 30minutes to devote to their children in the evenings，according to a new study．One in four working parents worry that half an hour simply isn't enough，while almost half fret that they aren't a good enough parent during the week．
However，parenting experts believe just 12minutes a day may be enough for mothers and fathers to fully reconnect with their child-as long as they ask the right questions．Child psychologist Dr Claire Halsey said asking a series of open-ended questions can help improve parents'relationship with their children．
Among the questions recommended in the research are："How many times have you smiled today-what made you laugh？"；"Can you act out what you did at breaktime？"；"Who is taller-mummy or your teacher？"and"What are the names of the toys you played with today？"Parents of older children are advised to start up a conversation with："I've got a great story for you but I want one in return…you first!"or"Tell me some school gossip …I'm all ears!"
Dr Halsey，working with the makers of Ribena Plus，who commissioned the research，said："There is no one as tough on their own parenting skills as a parent-but this study shows there is no need for parents to be so harsh．It's hard for working parents to juggle all their responsibilities and it can feel like guilt is simply a parent's lot-but it's absolutely not．By using clever tactics such as a little preparation alongside use of open-ended questions-such as‘Tell me what the best bit about your day was？'-parents can reduce the time worrying about chores and work and spend more time learning about their children's day．"

1．I travel a lot，and I find out different"styles"of directions every time 1 ask"How can I get to the post office？"
Foreign tourists are often confused in Japan because most streets there don't have names； in Japan，people use landmarks in their directions instead of street names．For example，the Japanese will say to travelers，"Go straight down to the corner．Turn left at the big hotel and go past a fruit market．The post office is across from the bus stop．"
In the countryside of the American Midwest，there are not usually many landmarks．There are no mountains，so the land is very flat； in many places there are no towns or buildings within miles．Inste ad of landmarks，people will tell you directions and distances．In Kansas or Iowa，for example，people will say，"Go north two miles．Turn east，and then go another mile．"
People in Los Angeles，California，have no idea of distance on the map； they measure distance in time，not miles．"How far away is the post office？"you ask．"Oh，"they answer，"it's about five minutes from here．"You say，"Yes，but how many miles away is it？"They don't know．
It's true that a person doesn't know the answer to your question sometimes．What happens in such a situation？A New Yorker might say，‘Sorry，I have no idea．"But in Yucatan，Mexico，no one answers"I don't know．"People in Yucatan believe that"I don't know"is impolite，They usually give an answer，often a wrong one．A tourist can get very，very lost in Yucatan!

5．My daughter recently asked me what a travel agency does．There is one located on our street and it has just been completely rebuilt．I told her that they helped people book their trips and vacations．"Why haven't we ever been there？"she wanted to know．"Because we do everything ourselves online these days，"I explained．"But why do it yourself if other people want to do it for you？"she wondered out loud．
The answer is that the travel agency makes a little bit of money on each ticket you book through them．If you book your ticket yourself online，you save that money．Saving money sounds great except that when you think about it you typically spend three evenings comparing prices to end up saving﹩30on a﹩300trip．All those﹩30discounts add up of course so I guess we should be happy with that．
Still，how bad is it really to pay someone﹩30and trust them to buy you something wonderful？Wouldn't you say your free evenings are worth more than﹩10a piece？
Consider books for a moment．Buying your book at Amazon saves you maybe 30% to 40% on each book．Add to that the convenience of shopping from home and getting the package delivered to your home address．So far so good．
Unfortunately，that does mean you spend too much time browsing Amazon．com while you could do something fun instead．Like maybe reading an actual book．
Then the package arrives and you aren't home and end up having to pick it up at the local post-office．All in all I wonder how much time I end up investing（投入） in the whole process．Time sounds free，but to most of us，it is more valuable than money．
The Internet Economy promised to get rid of the middle-men and we loved it．Somehow，I'm starting to get the feeling that we ourselves ended up doing the work of that middle-men we were so eager to get rid of．
In any project you can always pick two of these：fast，cheap or good．We seem to have focused a lot on‘cheap'and‘good'but the extra time we need to invest to also keep it‘fast'comes out of our own pockets．You can always make more money but you can never make more time．
