about how best to reach this goal Over the years,parents have Ined dramatically different ways.They have put their baby on a schedule,or they have fed on demand;they have let their baby cry himself to sleep,or they have picked him up as soon as he cried;they have given their child whatever he wants,or they have taught him to get everything through his own efforts.These contrasting parenting strategies arise from quite different views of the nature of children and childhood and the roles of parents.Some parents view their child as naturally social,lb them,their job is to allow him the space to succeed.Others think that their chiW should be taught how to ad There are probably positives and negatives to each method.None of them guarantees that your child will become the loving individual you want him to be.But some things are certain-a child will be more likely to be loving if you show him love,more successful if you give him examples of success,and happier if you are happy.1.What is this passage about92.What do parents NOT agree upon?3.Why do parents have different methods for raising children?4.How will a father raise his child if he believes his child is naturally social?5.What can we be certain oP五、radio programOur This I Believe essay today comes from Corinne Colbert,a listener in Athens,Ohio.Colbert is a mother of two.She writes the newsletter for a business organization,and she is president of a parent-teachefs organization.Heres Corinne Colbert with her essay for“This I Believe*.My husband is not my best friend.He doesnt complete me In fact,he can be a self-absorbed jerk.Were nearly polar opposites:He*s a lifetime member of the NRA who doesnt care for journalists,and Fm a lifelong liberal with a journalism degree.On the other hand,he doesnt beat or emotionally abuse me.He doesn*t drink or chase other women He*s a good provider So Im sticking with him.Some people would call that settling*,like ifs a bad thing.But I believe in settling.Alas,to many of us.the grass is greener on the other side of the fence.From movies to magazines to commercials,were told that we should demand more from lives that are.for many of us,pretty good.We suppose to look better,eat better,find better jobs,be better lovers and parents and workers.A stable marriage isnt enough ltrs supposed to be a fairy tale.Perfection is the goal.Settling in my sense,is about acceptance.Fm a pretty happy person,in large part because Fm honest with myself about what I have.Of course,some situations are worth improving.If your weight jeopardizes your health,exercise and change your eating habits;if your job makes you truly miserable,find a new one.If your marriage is toxic,end it.Chances are,though,you probably have what you need.If youre unhappy,ask yourself:Am I unhappy because I really dont have what I need,or because I just want more?So,yes,l,m settling.Im happy with my husband who,despite his flaws,is a caring father capable of acts of stunning generosity and fiercely protective of his family.Thinking about him may not set me on fire as it used to,but after 17 years and two kids,our love is stillwarm.And I believe thats good enough.HomeworkTasklM:Hello?Yes.Um.can I get some help over here?W:Sure thing,handsome.Whatll it be?M:A menu,please.W:We dont serve food-just the beers you see on the wall.M:All right What about that one?Its German,right?W:Yeah,it is.Is that what youd like?M:Thafll do.But Fd like a cold one if you got one.W:Sure thing,sweetie.Thatll be$6.25.M:Say,youre kinda friendly,aren*t you?W:Suppose it comes with the job.It pays to be nice to people,dont you think?M:I suppose it does.Thafs what my mother said to me anyway.Oh,waiL Wait a second.Oh no.I canl believe this.W:Whats wrong?M:I think I left my wallet somewhere.W:Quick,look around,Ifs gotta be around here.Maybe on the floor.M:No.ifs not there.I dont know where it could be.Any chance you can be nice and give me the beer for free?W:No chance of that happening.No.if no one*s paying.Im not nice.Questions 1 to 5 are based on the conversation you have just heard.1.What is the man doing in this conversation?2.Where does this conversation take place?3.What does the man want?4.What did the man,s mother teach him?When is the woman friendly?Task2Its difficult to know what is truly happening inside a relationship.Though a woman might appear to be happy,she may be a victim of violence.And though a man may appear to be gentle,he might not actually be.Every year estimates range from 3.4 million acts of violence against a wife or girlfriend to 3.9 million in this small country.This is bad news.Unfortunately,there is more.Nearly one-third of women reported being beaten by a husband or boyfriend at some point in their lives.Some of this violence resulted in injuries that required a doctors care.Thirty-seven percent of women who sought emergency room treatment for violence-related injuries in 2005 were injured by their own husbands or boyfriends.Whafs more,twenty-six percent of all female murder victims in 2006 were killed by their partners.What this means is that we as a society must look for the signs of violence.Do you know someone who often gives poor excuses for being hurt?Maybe you should talk with her about violence.Often a woman will slay in a violent relationship because she believes her husband or boyfriend loves her.But she should know that violence does not equal love.Questions 1 to 5 are based on the passage you have just heard.1.According to the passage,what is difficult?2.How many women are beaten by a husband or boyfriend per year?3.What can we infer from this passage?4.What percentage of female murder victims were killed by a partner in 2006?)5.Why does a woman often choose to stay in a violent relationship?Task3Who doesn*t love being in love?A true love listens to you talk about work,lets you have that last slice of pie,and(usually)remembers to take out the trash.He is ready to forget all kinds of misunderstandings.And he always thinks youre beautiful,even without makeup.Scientists have long been keen to prove that love gives us health benefits too Researchers cant say for sure that a lover is more important than a loving family or warm friendship when it comes to wellness.But they are learning more about how a romantic partner makes us stronger,with health gains that range from faster healing and better control over illnesses to living longer.The benefits of love are explicit and measurable.A study last year from the University of Pittsburgh found that women in good marriages have a much lower risk of heart disease than those in high-stress relationships.The National Love and Health Study has been tracking more than a million subjects since 1979.The study shows that married people live longer,have fewer heart attacks and lower cancer rates,and even get pneumonia less frequently than singles.A new study from the University of Iowa also found that cancer patients with a strong sense of connection to others and in satisfying relationships were better able to fight off cancer.It seems that love helps people strengthen their immuneUnit!Step up to better health一、warming upW:Thank you for agreeing to take this interview.I know youre quite a busy man.M：fm always happy to talk to people and answer questions from the
