Parents often say,"I don't understand why my child is acting this way.We've given him everything in
the world,and he just wants more.He's never happy.He doesn't enjoy what he has."
For some reason,we often feel that if we give our child everything he wants to keep him happy,he
should behave the way we want him to.An important part of meeting children's emotional(情感的)needs
is to set limits often and firmly in a loveing way.Pardnts who learn to set limits in a loving way set them
more often because they don't have to wait until they've "had it up to here" to do so.
A therapeutic(治疗的)way of setting limits is called ACT:Acknowledge the feeling,communicate the
limit,and target the choice.Necessarily,you're saying to the child,"I understand how you feel.It's OK to
feel that way,but you can't act that way when you feel like that.You can act this way when you feel like
that." It's also important to communicate this message in a loving way,not an angry way.
Using ACT limitsetting teaches children to cope with their emotions and to find appropriate behavioral
expressions that don't hurt the children themselves.It can also be used to teach children to delay
gratification(满意)．Here are some examples of how it works.If your child wants a toy when you're at
the store and you don't want to buy it,you can say,(A)"You love that toy and want it right now,(C)but
we're not spending any money on toys today.(T)You can put it on your wish list for birthday or Christmas."
Using this technique,you'll learn to set reasonable limits that work.If you set limits too severely,you're
also more likely to give in,because you feel guilty.If you don't follow through with a consequence or you
make one that's too severe,you teach your child not to trust you.

Having just quit a highly moneymaking job with tech giant Microsoft in the United States，where he’d made millions working as a program manager，Patrick Awuah would wake up once in a while wondering if he’d done the right thing．
What Awuah wanted was to create a university in his native Ghana．a state-of-the-art education centre that would help educate the country’s next generation of leaders．Awuah moved with his family back to Ghana．There，he invested his own money and with the help of other donors he founded Ashesi University．
“Africa needs to have a renaissance(复兴),” says Awuah as he explained what drove him to take the risky decision．“The world needs to change in this way and I strongly believe that people like me need to be part of the solution；I need to be really actively involved in helping to drive this change in Africa‘‘
Located about an hour's drive from the capital Accra，Ashesi，which appropriately translates to “beginning,” is the first Ghanaian university to combine technical majors with a liberal arts approach．Its campus，set on 100 acres in a town called Berekuso，was designed to be inspiring for the more than 500 young Ghanaians studying there．
“So when I look at universities I see Africa fast—forward 30 years．When this 20-year-old is now in his or her 50s，that person is going to be a leader．”
Today Ashesi，which celebrates its 10th anniversary this year，offers degrees in business，information systems and computer science．There are plans to offer engineering and economics majors in the near future．The school’s graduation rate is between 70％and 90％，according to Awuah．
In our last freshman class，50％ of the students paid full tuition(学费)，25％were on full scholarships and 25％on partial scholarships ,”he said．“The reason why variety is so important is that the most important conversation on campus is a conversation about the good society—what is the good society we would like to see in Africa? That conversation is a lot more interesting if you have variety in the classroom，”adds Awuah．
1.In Awuah’s opinion，Africa should be changed by
A．investing more money for development
B．developing computer science
C．training future leaders for development
D．founding more universities
2.The underlined sentence in the first paragraph infers that “_____”.

B．Awuah would doubt if he should resign from Microsoft
C．Awuah wondered whether it was right to invest for a university
D．Awuah felt it wrong that he had refused a job with a large salary
3.The university founded by Awuah_____.
A．came into being 10 years ago B．was named with “beginning”
C．is located in the capital of Ghan D．will be run for 30 years
4.Which of the following is TRUE according to the text?
