But most homes aren’t run this way. If parents do plan their children’s lives minute by minute, what happens when that child grows up and goes to college? At some point, kids need to learn to manage their own time. This can be one of the valuable skills you help y o u r k i d s d e v e l o p o u t s i d e o f s c h o o l.B u t i t g e n e r a l l y w o n’t h a p p e n a l l b y itself, because there’s a big transition that happens when kids leave the structured school environment and come home.If you have kid stay alone at home, think hard about trying to find an adult w ho can be there and provide the support your child needs. If a supportive adult isn’t a vailable, an expert named Martin recommends you find an after-school program led by e xperienced professionals who will engage them in creative activities, nourish the m with healthy snacks, and assist them with their schoolwork.If you ar e at hom e o n t he cont ra r y, t o t ake s om e bre ak aft er t he gu ys get st art ed o n di vers i ons,because it’s hard to stop and do somethin g like homework. “If that little bit of downtime is television, good luck ... getting the m to do their homework.” says a professor of child development at California State University, “TV is addictive.” A better way to help your child unwind is w ith a healthy snack. “Wai t u nt i l di nn e r,m a k e a pl at e ful l of e n e rgi z i n g f oo d. Yo u c ou l d e v en d i s h up p a rt o f t he di n n er you’re preparing a little early for the kids,” she says. While you’re sharing a snack, you can make a list o f what your kids will get to do during their study breaks. The types of breaks rec ommended include shooting baskets, getting a drink, using the bathroom, or even playing a quick card game with parents. Your kids can be the ones to decide whi ch b r e a k s t h e y’d l i k e t o t a k e.But, as Freimuth says, y o u r c h i l d r e n w i l l h a v e t o b e h o n e s t a b o u t w h a t kind of break will energize them and not upset their momentum.1. The main purpose of this passage is _ __.A) to provide some advice for the parents about children’s educationB) to explain how to prepare a pretty snack for your childrenC) to explain why the parents spoil their childrenD) to describe children’s lives after school2. The words“this way” in the sentence “But most homes aren’t run this way” in the first parag raph most possibly means _ __.A) to stay on the taskB) to arrange everything in detailC) to give some lessons to childrenD) to behave in the structured school3. Accordingto the passage, the expert named Martin, appearing in the second paragraph, most probably takes up the following jobs EXCEPT _.A) a specialist in children educationB) a professional consultant in a after-school programC) the leader of a research group about sports, such as basketballD) mostly the same as what Freimuth (in the last paragraph) does4. According to the last two paragraphs, the appropriate snacks that the parents provide will _ __.A) upset the children’s momentumB) exhaust them by lots of dirty dishesC) make the children get addicted to TVD) bring more energy to children5. Which of the following is NOT commended for the break during the children’s study after class?A) Shoot baskets.B) Play some games with parentsC) Go out to drink some beverage in a bar for a long time.D) Relax a bit by using the bathroom.Money secrets are not uncommon. According to MSNBC, a survey of 23,000 people found 37 percent of men, and 56 percent of women keep money secrets. In a separate study by Smart Money, 36 percent of men were found to keep money secrets and 40 percent of women did. These money secrets come in many forms. For example, Dr. Regina Barreca of Psychology Today says even seemingly minor non-disclosure of financial information is deceitful and potentially harmful to a relationship.Numerous reasons account for why people keep money secrets. Keeping money secrets is a way some people deal with differences of opinion and how others hide money problems. However, according to Judith Sills, a psychotherapist on Oprah, money secrets are harmful to relationships because they bury or avoid issues that could get bigger; theyalso indicate a lack of trust or mutual understanding. Even though one partner thinks he or she is protecting the other from worry, or that a financial matter is a non-issue, it is still often something that should be dealt with together.Fear of consequences or not knowing how to solve a money matter is not a valid reason to keep money secrets. Instead, the issues should be discussed maturely and reasonably using a “Money Huddle” according to the Money Couple. Moreover, using this technique helps keep other aspects of a relationship sane by airing out money concerns. If carried outcorrectly money huddles can also help prevent money issues from becoming overblown in addition to helping overcome the money barrier to a more functional relationship.Being informed about how to talk about money is beneficial to the outcome of financial discussions. According to research conducted by the StarTribune, discussing money matters early in a relationship is a good idea. Aleksandra Todorova of Smart Money concurs and states a balanced approach is a good premise with which to approach financial discussions. For example, in matters of spending it is suggested that a budget be the primary focus, and not so much what each individual purchases with their share of the budget.After becoming informed about how to talk about money secrets, a way to deal with them is to develop a financial system. For instance, according to WebMd, a reference couple who developed a money method prior to getting married were still doing well as a couple six years later. They used multiple accounts that individualized and jointly distributed money in addition to discussing large money issues together.1.We can learn from the first paragraph that _________.A.women are likely to keep money secrets than menB.it’s considered uncommon that people keep money secretsC.the percentage of men’s keeping money secrets is double women’sD.no study can give the exact information about people’s keeping money secrets2.According to Judith Stills, keeping money secrets _________.A. should follow some scientific rulesB. is something that should be encouragedC. can strengthen family family relationshipD. can’t be accepted by the other parterner3. “ Money Huddle” is a technique that can be used to ________A. save as much money as the couple wantB: settle the trouble that lies between the coupleC. discover whether one is keeping money secretsD. establish reasonable and good family relationship4.
