  If you go to Egypt,you¡¯ll see a lot of pyramids. The biggest of all is the Great Pyramid. It is about 137 meters high and made of 2 ,300,000 big stones. Each stone weighs about two and a half tons (¶Ö) .The biggest ones even weigh fifteen tons. It took more than 100,000 men twenty years to build it. Nobody can tell just how the men cut,carried and lifted (¾Ù) the huge stones without our modem machines (»úÆ÷) .

   The Egyptian kings told the people to build the pyramids for themselves. They thought they had tombs (·ØĹ) strong enough to keep their bodies well until they came back to life. But they never thought that about 5 ,000 years later their bodies would be on show in museums.(½­ËÕÊ¡ÑγÇÊо°É½ÖÐѧ 2013 ¡ª2014 ѧÄê°ËÄ꼶ÏÂѧÆÚÆÚÖп¼ÊÔÓ¢ÓïÊÔÌâ)

          Differences in bicycling between China and other countries 

   People all over the world ride bicycles. But there are many differences between China and other countries.

   Wearing helmets (Í·¿ø) 

   You may think helmets are useless. But you are wrong. In many places kids have to wear them when they ride bikes. In some places of the United States,it's against the law (Î¥·´·¨ÂÉ) for kids under 16 to ride without helmets. Many people say that helmets are like seat belts (°²È«´ø) for bikes.

   Bike lanes (³µµÀ) 

   In China,bicycles have their own special lanes on the road. People can ride next to cars. In the USA. roads are only for cars. People don't ride their bikes to school or work. But this isn¡¯t true everywhere in the West. In the Netherlands (ºÉÀ¼) there are more bikes than people. The whole country has bicycle lanes. 

   Riding for fun 

   Do you ride your bike to school? In China this is very common. But in the USA. kids only ride their bikes for fun on the weekend. They regard bicycling as a sport. Many cities have special parks. People turn old railways (Ìú·) into bike roads. People can ride from town to town.(ÉÂÎ÷Ê¡Î÷°²ÊÐÇì°²ÖÐѧ 2011 ¡ª2012 ѧÄê °ËÄ꼶ÏÂѧÆÚÆÚÖп¼ÊÔÓ¢ÓïÊÔÌâ)

Earlier this year£¬my oldest daughter got braces(½ÃÕýÆ÷)on her teeth£¬and let¡¯s just say she did not go quietly into that dentist¡¯s chair£®Fear and hate pretty much describe the days leading up to her first appointment£®

So when she finally walked out with shiny teeth£¬a sore(ÌÛÍ´µÄ)mouth and a broken spirit£¬I told her I was proud of her and took her to Ben &Jerry¡¯s for an ice cream reward£®Two weeks later£¬we returned to the scene of the crime£®The dentist spent about 45 seconds checking her teeth before sending her on her merry way£®Before I could start the car, she was placing her ice cream order£®She was shocked when I told her that she wasn't going to get a reward every time we get her teeth checked£®

Clearly£¬she¡¯s not alone£®According to some parenting experts£¬kids are easily addicted to a benefit¡ªproducing system of parental rewards and bribes¡ªit¡¯s not all ice creams£¬candies and cool toys£®Some parents are offering their children prizes to just let them sit down and behave in a restaurant¡ªor sleep in their own beds¡ªor score a goal in the next soccer game£®

While the experts agree that occasional awards are okay, the danger lies in the system¡¯s overuse£®Kids quickly gain a sense of entitlement(Ó¦µÃµÄȨÀû)£¬where they come to expect a big reward for every good thing that they do£¬no matter how small£®To keep things in check£¬experts say parents should reduce the number of rewards they offer£¬make sure rewards match the behavior and explain the real benefits of behaving for the sake of behaving£®

Have you used bribery or a reward system with your kids? Was it successful? Do your kids expect more because of that system?
