Being alone in outer space can be frightening. That is one reason why astronauts on solo (单独的) space flights were given plenty of work to keep them  45  . They were also constant communication with people on the earth.  46 , being with people from whom you cannot get away might be even harder than being alone. This is what happens on long submarine (潜水艇) voyages. It will also happen on  47  space flights in the future. Will there be special problem of adjustment under such conditions?

Scientists have studied the reactions of men to one another during long submarine voyages. They have found that the longer the voyage lasts, the more serious the problem of 48  is. When men are  49  together for a long period, they begin to feel uneasy. Everyone has little habits of speaking and behaving that are ordinarily acceptable. In the limited space over a long period of time, however, these little habits may become very  50 .

Apparently, although no one wants to be  51  all the time, everyone needs some degree of privacy. When people are enclosed together, they are in what is called a stress situation. That means that they are under an unusual amount of  52  or stress.

People who are well-adjusted are able to  53  stress situations better than others. That is one reason why so much care is taken in  54  our astronauts. These men undergo a long period of testing and training. One of the things tested is their behavior under stress.

She must use her sense of touch to help her during her routine. Sometimes she even closes her eyes. “You have to   45   your mind that it’ll take you where you want to go.” says Lola.

To be a top-level gymnast, one must be brave. The beam is probably the most   46   for anyone because it’s four inches wide. At the state competition, Lola didn’t fall   47   the beam. In fact, she got an 8.1 out of 10---- her highest score yet.

Lola doesn’t want to be   48   differently from the other girls on her team. At the competitions, the judges don’t know about her vision   49   . She doesn’t tell them, because she doesn’t think they need to know. Her mom is amazed by her   50   attitude.

Lola never thinks about   51   . She is presently at level 7 while the highest is level 10 in gymnastics. Her   52   is to reach level 9. She says she wants to be a gymnastics coach to pass down what she’s learned to other kids   53   she grew up.

Lola is   54   of all her hard work and success. She says it’s helped her overcome problems in her life outside gymnastics, too. Her   55   for others is “just believe yourself”.

I am a strong believer that if a child is raised with approval, he learns to love himself and will be successful in his own way.

    Several weeks ago,I was doing homework with my son in the third grade and he kept standing up from his chair to go over the math lines.I kept asking him to sit down, telling him that he would concentrate better. He sat but seconds later, as if he didn’t even notice he was doing it, he got up again.I was getting frustrated, but then it hit me.I started noticing his answers were much quicker and accurate when he stood up.Could he be more intent while standing up?[来源:学.科.网Z.X.X.K]

This made me start questioning myself and what I had been raised to believe. I was raised to believe that a quiet, calm child was a sure way to success.This child would have the discipline to study hard, get good grades and become someone important in life.

Now those same people perhaps come to realize that their kids are born with their own sets of DNA and personality traits,and all you can do is loving and accepting them.As parents,throughout their growing years and beyond that, we need to be our kids' best cheerleaders,guiding them and helping them find their way.

    I have stopped asking my son to sit down and concentrate.Obviously, he is concentrating just in his own way and not mine.We need to learn to accept our kids' ways of doing things.Some way may have worked for me but doesn't mean we need to carry it through generations.There is nothing sweeter than being individual and unique.It makes us free and happy and that's just the way I want my kids to live their own life.
