UGG boots have been a winter-weather fashion for several years now,combining function,comfort,warmth and even some style.What many UGG-enthusiasts don’t know is that their boots are a breeding ground for bacteria and cause foot problems.

Doctors believe the boots,which are particularly popular among young teenage girls,are leading to a rise in the number of people suffering pains in their feet and knees.

Dr.Ian Drysdale,head of the British College of Osteopathic Medicine,believes because the foot does not get the proper support on the inside,it will lead to more ankle,knee,hip and back problems.“These boots are not designed for outside wear.That something becomes a trend or fashionable doesn’t mean it’s good or right,” he said,“The particular problem with this type of footwear is that it is unsupported.It’s a slipper.You wouldn’t normally expect to be doing outdoor activities from something that’s indoor.If you decide to wear your pajamas outside all the time,someone will come up and say it’s not a good idea.” Dr.Drysdale explained that the feet issues become a particular problem among young teenage girls,whose bones are “plastic” and developing when they are growing.“If that structure is developing in an inappropriate way,” he said,“then the ultimate structure will be deformed.”

Mike O’Neill,a consultant surgeon,said,“As the foot slides around,you get wear and tear(磨损)on the joints on the inside of the foot.The ankle is in the wrong position,the thigh bone also changes position,and you get an abnormal movement in the pelvis,which lead to back problems.”

UGG Australia,who makes the designer version of the boots,told The Daily Mirror that their boots are “comfort” rather than “performance” footwear and consumers should be aware of “knockoffs”(仿制品) which lack reinforced heels in their boots.

Encouragement and praise can come in many forms,and some ways are better for children’s development than others.Researchers at the University of Chicago who studied mother-child interactions over the course found that the type of praise children receive affects their attitudes toward challenges later in life.Specifically,praise coming with feedback about their behavior that kids made helped them to deal better with difficult experiences five years later,compared with compliments that focused more on the child himself,like “You’re a good boy.”

“This is something we suspected would be the case based on a lot of experimental research,and it’s exciting to see it plays out in the real world,” says Elizabeth,a professor of psychology at Temple University,who led the study.“Praising the efforts,actions and work of the kid is going to be more beneficial in their long-term persistence and work hard in the future.”

Such “process praise” includes comments such as “You worked really hard” or “You’re doing a great job,” which emphasize the child’s actions.“Person praise” includes comments like “You’re so smart” or “You’re so good,” which focus on a child’s inherent qualities.These distinctions aren’t new in the field of psychology,but exactly how they affect children’s development over the years hasn’t been clear.

As part of the study,researchers visited the homes of more than 50 toddlers between the age of 1 and 3 years old,and filmed their daily interactions with their parents during multiple 90-minute sessions.Five years later,the researchers followed up with the families,using questionnaires to measure the children’s attitudes toward challenges and problem solving.The children who grew up with more process praise were more open to challenge,and could identify more ways of overcoming difficult problems.While person praise didn’t seem to have any negative effect on the children,process praise teaches children that their talents and abilities can be developed and improved,while person praise sends the message that their abilities are fixed and therefore not easily changed.

1.Which of the following statements is NOT true?

A.Praising inspires kids to form good personal quality.

B.Praising kids is tested to be effective in the long run.

C.The process of praising kids experiment is suspected.

D.The praising experiment is carried out in real situation.

3.From the last paragraph we can learn that .

A.kids should not be praised too frequently

B.different kids should be praised differently

C.process praise is less effective as we expected

D.kids with process praise tend to be more creative

4.What is the main purpose of the passage?
