how best to reach this goal.Over the years,parents have tried dramatically different ways.They have put their baby on a schedule,or they have fed ondemand;they have let their baby cry himself to sleep,or theyhave picked him up as soon as he cried;they have given theirchild whatever he wants,or they have taught him to geteverything through his own efforts.These contrastingparenting strategies arise from quite different views of thenature of children and childhood and the roles of parents.Someparents view their child as naturally social.To them,theirjob is to allow him the space to succeed.Others think that theirchild should be taught how to act.There are probably positivesand negatives to each method.None of them guarantees that yourchild will become the loving individual you want him to be.Butsome things are certain a child will be more likely to beloving if you show him love,more successful if you give himexamples of success,and happier if you are happy.Q:1.What is this passage about?2.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 childis naturally social?5.What can we be certain of?Radio ProgramOur“This I Believe“essay today comes from CorinneColbert,a listener in Athens,Ohio.Colbert.Colbert is amother of two.She writes the newsletter for a businessorganization,and she is president of a parent-teacher,sorganization.Here s Corinne Colbert with her essay for”ThisI Believe”.My husband is not my best friend.He doesn t complete me.Infact,he can be a self-absorbed jerk.We re nearly polaropposites:He s a lifetime member of the NRA who doesn t carefor journalists,and I m a lifelong liberal with a journalismdegree.On the other hand,he doesn t beat or emotionally abuseme.He doesn t drink or chase other women.He s a goodprovider.So I,m sticking with him.Some people would call that“settling”,like it s a bad thing.But I believe in settling.Alas,to many of us,the grass is greener on the other side ofthe fence.From movies to magazines to commercials,we re toldthat we should demand more from lives that are,for many of us,pretty good.We suppose to look better,eat better,f ind betterjobs,be better lovers and parents and workers.A stablemarriage isn,t enough.It s supposed to be a fairy tale.Perfection is the goal.Settling in my sense,is about acceptance.I m a pretty happyperson,in large part because I m honest with myself about whatI have.Of course,some situations are worth improving.If your weightjeopardizes your health,exercise and change your eating habits;if your job makes you truly miserable,find a new one.If yourmarriage is toxic,end it.Chances are,though,you probablyhave what you need.If you re unhappy,ask yourself:Am Iunhappy because I really don,t have what I need,or becauseI just want more?So,yes,I m settling.I m happy with my husband who,despitehis flaws,is a caring father,capable of acts of stunninggenerosity and fiercely protective of his family.Thinkingabout him may not set me on fire as it used to,but after 17years and two kids,our love is still warm.And I believe thatJ sgood enough.Listening and SpeakingBefore the television was invented,families spent their sparetime doing different activities together.Now,most familiesstay at home and watch TV.But there are a few reasons whywatching television can be harmful.The most important reason why watching TV is bad is itinfluences how much family members communicate.Parents,grandparents,and other family members have a lot of wisdom toshare.This wisdom,however,is often ignored by young peoplewho watch TV.Furthermore,watching television is bad because it reduceschildren s study time.Researchers have found that childrenwho watch little or no television spend three hours a day onstudy more than frequent TV watchers.Finally,TV programs can be a bad influence.Some shows,as weall know,include inappropriate language and too much violence.And while there is still a great amount of general discussionas to whether or not children will imitate the bad things theysee on TV,many researchers say children do repeat what theysee.Several studies link their behaviors to TV programs;forexample,children are three times more likely to get into fightsat school if they watch violent TV programs.Supplementary Listening1.M:Hello?Yes,Um,can I get some help over here?W:Sure thing,handsome.What,H i t be?M:A menu,please.W:We don,t serve food just the beers you see on the wall.M:All right.What about that one?It s German,right?W:Yeah,It is.Is that what yon,d like?M:That 11 do.But I d like a cold one if you got one.W:Sure thing,sweetie.That 11 be$6.25.M:Say,you re kinda friendly,wren t you?W:Suppose it comes with the job.It pays to be nice to people,don t you think?M:I suppose it does.That s what my mother said to me anyway.Oh,wait.Wait a second.Oh no.I can,t believe this.W:What s wrong?M:I think I left my wallet somewhere.W:Quick,look around.It s gotta be around here.Maybe onthe floor.M:No its not there.I don,t know where it could be.Anychance you can be nice and givethe beer for free?W:No chance of that happening.No,if no one s paying,I mnot nice.Q: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?5.When is the woman friendly?2.It s difficult to know what is truly happening inside arelationship.Though a woman might appear to be happy,she maybe a victim of violence.And though a man may appear to be gentle,he might not actually be.Every year estimates range from 3.4million acts of violence against a wife or girlfriend to 3.9million in this small country.This is bad news.Unfortunately,there is more.Nearlyone-third of women reported being beaten by a husband orboyfriend at some point in their lives.Some of this violenceresulted in injuries that required a doctor s care.Thirty-seven percent of women who sought emergency roomtreatment for violence-related injuries in 2005 were injuredby their own husbands or boyfriends.What s more,twenty-sixpercent of all female murder victims in 2006 were killed bytheir partners.What this means is that we as a society must look for the signsof violence.Do you know someone who often gives poor excusesfor being hurt?Maybe you should talk with her about violence.Often a woman will stay in a violent relationship because shebelieves her husband or boyfriend loves her.But she should knowthat violence does not equal love.Q:1.According to the passage,what is difficult?2.How many women are beaten by a husband or boyfriend peryear?3.What can we infer from this passage?4.What percentage of female murder victims were killed bya partner in 2006?5.Why does a woman often choose to stay in a violentrelationship?3.Who doesn t love being in love?A true love listens totalk about work,lets you have that last 1)slice of pie,and(usually)remembers to take out the trash.He is ready to forgetall kinds of 2)misunderstandings.And he always thinks you re3)beautiful,even without makeup.Scientists have long been keen to prove that love gives ushealth 4)benefits too.Researchers can t say for sure thata lover is more important than a loving family or warmfriendship when it comes to 5)wellness.But they are learningmore about how a romantic partner makes us stronger,with healthgains that 6)range from faster healing and better control overillnesses to living longer.The benefits of love are 7)explicit and measurable.A studylast year from the University of Pittsburgh found that womenin good marriages have a much lower risk of hear disease thanthose in high-stress relationship.The National Love and HealthStudy 8)has been tracking more than a million subjects since1979.The study shows that married people live longer,9)havefewer heart attack and lower cancer rates,and even getpneumonia less frequently than singles.A new study from theUniversity of Iowa also found that caner patients with 10)astrong sense of connection to others and in satisfyingrelationships were better able to fight off cancer.It seemsthat love helps people strengthen their immune systems.Unit 2Warming upWthank you for agreeing to take this interview.I know youare quite a busy man.M I am always happy to talk to people and
