It was raining hard outside, which made it difficultly for me to go home for lunch. Just as I was wondering that I should eat at noon, I saw a familiar figure passed by our classroom. I rushed out and found it was my mother, already in her fifties, who brought you lunch in spite of the heavy rain. In China, many parents make great sacrifices for their child. But what had the children done in return? All too often, most children just take it for granted that their parents should serve for them unconditionally. My dear mum or dad, thank you very much bringing me up. How shall I do for you?
2 . How to Be a Good Listener to Your Family
Communication is important for strong family relationships. However, if you don't truly listen to others, it can be difficult to communicate.
Listen actively. When listening to a family member, do not let your mind wander to other things. It's important to make your family member feel heard and valued. Put your phone away and give them your full attention. Never think about other things when someone is talking.
Repeat what has been said. Briefly summarizing what the speaker has said can go a long way towards effective communication. Everyone wants to feel valued and heard, so repeating a family member’s point can show you were listening.
Do not interrupt.
A.Avoid hurrying the speaker |
B.Interrupting can put breaks on effective conversation. |
C.Instead, focus on what's being said. |
D.People tend to pause when they speak. |
E.It can help you make sure you understood the speaker. |
F.Working on your listening skills can help you communicate better and form stronger bonds. |
G.When someone finishes talking, ask questions if necessary. |
3 . As Internet users become more dependent on the Internet to store information, are people remember less? If you know your computer will save information, why store it in your own personal memory, your brain? Experts are wondering if the Internet is changing what we remember and how.
In a recent study, Professor Betsy Sparrow conducted some experiments. She and her research team wanted to know the Internet is changing memory. In the first experiment, they gave people 40 unimportant facts to type into a computer. The first group of people understood that the computer would save the information. The second group understood that the computer would not save it. Later, the second group remembered the information better. People in the first group knew they could find the information again, so they did not try to remember it.
In another experiment, the researchers gave people facts to remember, and told them where to find the information on the Internet. The information was in a specific computer folder (文件夹). Surprisingly, people later remember the folder location (位置) better than the facts. When people use the Internet, they do not remember the information. Rather, they remember how to find it. This is called “transactive memory (交互记忆)”
According to Sparrow, we are not becoming people with poor memories as a result of the Internet. Instead, computer users are developing stronger transactive memories; that is, people are learning how to organize huge quantities of information so that they are able to access it at a later date. This doesn’t mean we are becoming either more or less intelligent, but there is no doubt that the way we use memory is changing.
