5．If your child constantly moves when he's doing math homework or insists on listening to music while studying，take heart．Although it may seem like he's trying to drive you crazy，he's probably just using the strategies that help him learn．
"I like to study at a desk in silence，and my daughter can't think that way．She likes to bounce around on a ball with music in the background，"says author Maureen McKay，whose website，Optimistic Outcomes，provides tips based on a child's learning style for parents．"Sometimes kids are just doing what works for them．"
Three basic learning styles are auditory，kinesthetic（肌肉运动知觉的），and visual ones．Auditory learners prefer listening to explanations to reading them and may like to study by reciting information aloud．This type of learner may want to have background music while studying，or they may be distracted by noises and need a quiet environment to study．Kinesthetic learners learn by doing and touching something．They may have trouble sitting still while studying，and they are better able to understand information by writing it down or doing hands-on activities．Visual learners process new information by reading，looking at graphics，or watching a demonstration．Children with this learning style can grasp information presented in a chart or graph，but they may grow impatient listening to an explanation．
Most people use a combination of styles but have a clear preference for one．Understanding your child's learning style can reduce homework frustrations and make it easier for families to communicate，says McKay．She observed different learning styles while working as a teacher's assistant，and she started researching strategies for working in different learning styles when her daughter began having trouble in elementary school．
Because her daughter had difficulty listening in class，McKay looked for exercises to strengthen listening skills．Her daughter is now doing well in middle school，and she owes her success to the fact that her teachers and parents came to understand her unique style of learning．

4．Sometimes when I'm flying from one speaking engagement to another，I find myself sitting next to someone who's quite talkative．This is often a pleasant experience for me because I'm a people-watcher．I learn so much by watching and listening to the people I meet and see every day．I've heard stories of sadness and others of delight，fear and joy，and others that would rival those on"Oprah"and"Geraldo"．
Sad to say，there are times when I'm sitting next to someone who just wants to vent（发泄） his temper or inflict（强加）his political views on an audience for 600miles．It was one of those days．I settled in，as my seatmate began his speech on the terrible state of the world with the time worn，"You know，kids today are…"He went on and on，sharing vague notions of the terrible state of teens and young adults，based on watching the six o'clock news rather selectively．
When I gratefully got off that plane and finally made it to my hotel in Indianapolis，I bought the local paper and went to have dinner in the hotel．There，on an inside page，was an article I believe ought to have been the front-page headline news．
In a little Indiana town，there was a 15-year-old boy with a brain tumor．He was undergoing radiation and chemotherapy（化疗）treatments，As a result of those treatments，he had lost all of his hair．I don't know about you，but I remember how I would have felt about that at his age---I would have felt awkward and ashamed．
This young man's classmates willingly came to the rescue：all the boys in his grade asked their mothers if they could shave their heads so that Brian wouldn't be the only bald boy in the high school．There，on that page was a photograph of a mother shaving all of her sons'hair with the family looking on approvingly．And in the background，a group of similar bald young men．
No，I don't despair about kids today．

3．Remembering names is an important social skill．（36）B
●Recite and repeat in conversation．
When you hear a person's name，repeat it．Immediately say it to yourself several times without moving your lips．You could also repeat the name in a way that does not sound forced or artificial．
●Ask the other person to recite and repeat．
You can let other people help you remember their names．After you've been introduced to someone，ask that person to spell the name and pronounce it correctly for you．（37）G
●Admit you don't know
Admitting that you can't remember someone's name can actually make people relaxed．Most of them will feel sympathy if you say．"I'm working to remember names better．（38）C What is it again？"
●Use associations
Link each person yon meet with one thing out find interesting or unusual．For example，you could make a mental note："Vicki Cheng---tall，black hair．"To reinforce you're your associations，write them on a small card as soon as possible．
●（39）F
When meeting a group of people，concentrate on remembering just two or three names．Free yourself from remembering every one．Few of the people in mass introductions expect you to remember their names．Another way is to limit yourself to learning just first names．Last names can come later．

Great changes have been taken place in the way people communicate each other．In the past people write letters to share informations and later they talked with each other on the telephone．Now more and more people use our own mobile phones to communicating．And instead writing on the paper，they email to each other on the computer．As a result，people find that quicker and easier to communicate，and at the same time some people feel that they become poorer in writing．They worry about whether people can be as closely as before．

After about an hour or so，the man calmed down，and started to think．Maybe there was something he really needed to buy with that $10 and he really didn't ask for money very often．（38）E"Are you asleep，son？''He opened the door and asked．"No，Daddy，"replied the boy．"I've been thinking，maybe I was too hard on you just now，"said the man，"Here's the $10 you asked for．"（39）G"Oh，thank you，Daddy!"he yelled．Then，reaching under his pillow he pulled out some small change．（40）B"Why do you want more money if you have already had some？"the father asked angrily．

20．Why is pink or purple a color for girls and blue or brown for boys？
The answer depends largely on cultural values as well as personal experiences．To the Egyptians，green was a color that represented the hope and joy of spring，while for Muslims，it means heaven．Red is a symbol of good luck in many cultures．In China，children are given money in a red envelope to bring good fortune in the New Year．For many nations，blue is a symbol of protection and religious beliefs．Greek people often wear a blue necklace hoping to protect themselves against evils（灾祸）．
People's choice of colors is also influenced by their bodies'reactions（反应） toward them．Green is said to be the most restful color．It has the ability to reduce pain and relax people both mentally and physically．People who work in green environments have been found to have fewer stomach aches．
Red can cause a person's blood pressure to rise and increase people's appetites （食欲）．Many decorators will include different shades of red in the restaurant．Similarly，many commercial websites will have a red"Buy Now"button because red is a color that easily catches a person's eye．
Blue is another calming color．Unlike red，blue can cause people to lose appetite．So if you want to eat less，some suggest that eating from blue plates can help．
The next time you are deciding on what to wear or what color to decorate your room，think about the color carefully．
