16、range problem inability to read.In the library, I found my way into the “Childrens Room.” I sat down on the floor and pulled a few books off the shelf at random. The cover of a book caught my eye.

I never forgot my beagle.There on the books cover was a beagle which looked identical（相同的） to my dog. I ran my fingers over the picture of the dog on the

18、 cover. My eyes ran across the title, Amos, the Beagle with a Plan. Unknowingly, I had read the title. Without opening the book, I borrowed it from the library for the summer.Under the shade of a bush, I started to read about Amos. I read very, very slowly with difficulty. Though pages were turned s

19、lowly, I got the main idea of the story about a dog who, like mine, had been separated from his family and who finally found his way back home.

25、r has had happy summers ever since.CResearchers from France and Italy discovered that Canadian parents are less strict with their children than mothers and fathers in France and Italy. “Our most important finding was the difference between Canadians and the others,” said Professor Michel Claes, the

26、lead author of the study. “Canadians focus on independence and negotiation. On the other hand, Italians, for example, exercise more control. We found Canadians seem to focus on negotiation in case of a conflict.” Claes said Canada, France and Italy were selected for the study because they share impo

27、rtant cultural and social factors. “We chose French Canadians because they share the same language as French, and originally came from France and share certain values. Italy was included because it was considered to have similar, strong and important family values.” he explained.The researchers exam

28、ined the emotional ties between parents and their children by questioning 1,256 students aged 11 to 19 years old. Canadian students reported less control and more free actions, according to the study. Italian parents were stricter and French parents were somewhere in the middle. Claes explains that

29、the differences lie in education in Canada, France and Italy. “North America has its own educational values, which promote individualization. Tolerance and comprehension are encouraged. Italy, on the other hand, promotes respect of authority, control, and the need for permission,” he said. Children

30、from all three countries described their mothers as warm and communicative. Italian and Canadian children had similar feelings about their fathers, and reported high levels of emotional ties. But French fathers were generally thought by their children to be more distant and cold.“We were surprised b

36、elf-control is at the root of all the advantages. Let a man give in to his impulses and feelings, and from that moment he gives up his moral freedom. A single angry word has lost many a friend. When Socrates found in himself any temper or anger, he would check it by speaking low in order to control

37、himself. If you are conscious of being angry, keep your mouth shut so that you can hold back rising anger. Many a person has dropped dead in great anger.

38、es error a fault.” To be angry with a weak man is to prove that you are not strong yourself. “Anger,” says Pythagoras, “brings with folly(愚蠢) and ends with regret.” You must measure the strength of a man by the power of the feelings he conquers, not by the power of those which conquer him.
