Now lots of parents will buy everything that their children want to have. If they go on with the habit, their children won't know the money from hard work.
Some parents like birthday parties for their children. If they keep on doing this, their children will think it
for them to enjoy birthday parties every year. Year after year, maybe they will forget their
birthdays and only remember their own. It is against traditional habits.
Many parents don't let the children do housework. They think children have only one thing to do. They should study hard and do in their lessons. If parents go on doing this, the children will only learn to open their mouths to be
and stretch out (伸出) their arms to be
every day. When the children grow up, they will be able to do

Did your parents make you take music lessons? Recent research has
that people who studied music as a child are able to remember words much better than people
musical training. One experiment was
with sixty female American college students. A similar study was carried out with ninety boys in Hongkong of China. In both cases, students had to
words and pictures.
they were asked how many they remembered. Scientists found that students
studied music were better at remembering words, but both groups remembered the pictures equally well. Perhaps it is
to use your imagination to associate(联想) pictures with things in your life. Also, you can make up stories for pictures.
Scientists explain the
by saying that both musical memory and verbal (written or spoken words) memory are located in the left side of the brain. Visual memory, the kind needed for pictures, is located in
half of the brain. Since verbal memory is very important for success at school, researchers now think that taking music lessons can give you a real academic advantage. In fact, when the students were tested a year
, the students who had stopped taking lessons still did well on verbal memory. Maybe it’s time to give music lessons a try.
