单选题 In bringing up children, every parent watches eagerly the child's acquisition of each new skill—the first spoken words, the first independent steps, or the beginning of reading and writing. It is often tempting to hurry the child beyond his natural learning rate, but this can set up dangerous feelings of failure and states of worry in the child. This might happen at any stage. A baby might be forced to use a toilet too early, a young child might be encouraged to learn to read before he knows the meaning of the words he reads. On the other hand, though, if a child is left alone too much, or without any learning opportunities, he loses his natural enthusiasm for life and his desire to find out new things for himself. Parents vary greatly in their degree of strictness towards their children. Some may be especially strict in money matters. Others are severe over times of coming home at night or punctuality for meals. In general, the controls imposed represent the needs of the parents and the values of the community as much as the child's own happiness. As regards the development of moral standards in the growing child, consistency is very important in parental teaching. To forbid a thing one day and excuse it the next is no foundation for morality. Also, parents should realize that 'example is better than precept'. If they are not sincere and do not practise what they preach (说教), their children may grow confused and emotionally insecure when they grow old enough to think for themselves, and realize they have been to some extent fooled. A sudden awareness of a marked difference between their parents' principles and their morals can be a dangerous disappointment.

单选题 Teach Kids to Daydream Today's children are exhausted, and not just because one in three kids is not getting sufficient sleep. Sleep deprivation (缺乏，不足) in kids has been found to significantly decrease academic achievement, lower intelligence test scores, slower physical growth, heighten moodiness and so on. While the argument for protecting our children's sleep time is compelling, there is another kind of rest that is equally beneficial to our children's academic, emotional, and creative lives: daydreaming. Daydreaming, which looks lazy from the outside, may just be the hidden wellspring (源泉) of creativity and learning. Not all mental downtime (停工休息期) is alike, of course. Downtime spent playing a videogame or watching a television show may have its charms, but the kind of downtime I am talking about is different. I'm talking about the kind of mind-wandering that happens when the brain is free of interruption and allowed to get rid of the worries of the day. Television, videogames, and other electronic distractions prevent this kind of mental wandering because they interrupt the flow of thoughts and memories that strengthen the foundation of positive, productive daydreaming. In 'Ode to Positive Constructive Daydreaming'—an article Scott Barry Kaufman cowrote with Rebecca McMillan—reads: For the individual, mind wandering offers the possibility of real, personal reward, some immediate, some more distant. These rewards include self-awareness, goal driven thought, future planning, simulating the perspective of another person, evaluating the implications of self and others' emotional reactions, moral reasoning, etc. In other words, daydreaming only appears lazy from the outside, but viewed from the inside—or from the perspective of a psychologist, such as Kaufman—a complicated and extremely productive neurological process is taking place. Viewed from the inside, our children are exploring the only space where they truly have autonomy (自治权): their own minds.
