Moms take care of their children’s life and dads bring home food and make the family rules. These are the roles moms and dads fall into when they become parents and it’s common among all cultures. But times change and parents’ roles seem to be changing, too. More women are bringing home food by having full-time jobs and men are taking care of their children at home.
Chinese TV show Where Are We Going, Dad? provides a closer look at the changing roles of dads in modern family life. The show follows the adventures（冒险经历）of five celebrity（明星）dads who take trips with their young children and try to complete a set of tasks. It shows how dads are trying hard to find the best way to raise their children and keep a closer relationship with them. Young dads no longer want to be cold.
Psychologists（心理学家）say that a strong fatherly influence is important in a child’s development. Because fathers teach their children skills and encourage them to try new things, and they also give them a sense of safety. A child learns that if something goes wrong, he or she can depend on dad to help fix it. The psychologists also say that without a dad, a child is more possible to drop out of school and get into trouble.
A mother’s love is important, and so is a father’s love. Chen Mo, a psychology professor says, “It takes both parents to raise a child. Children have different needs at different ages and this needs to be considered by both parents.”

Here is some advice on listening. We hope it can help you.
●Relax yourself.
Before you start to listen to something, you need to relax. Don’t get nervous or excited. This will help you with your listening.
●Listen carefully to the first sentence.
The first sentence tells a lot about the whole passage. For example, if at the very beginning, you hear “Many shops in many parts of China have decided to talk away all kinds of Japanese goods off their shelves but some people say it's not a good idea. Our reporter says...”you know you will hear a piece of news, not a children’s story, or a science report.
●Think when you’re listening .
When you’re listening, try to do some thinking. For example, you can think of the following questions_: What happened when, where and how? What was the result and what does the speaker want to tell us? This way, you may understand the passage better.
●Listen for important facts.
It’s important for you to remember some important facts. For example, if the passage is a science report, you should try to remember how the scientists got their results.
●Don’t think about one or two words for too long.
You may hear some words that you don’t know, but don’t spend too much time on them. Very often, you’ll find out what they mean later when you go on with the listening.

A Christmas Carol is a famous short novel written by Charles Dickens. It is about an old man named Scrooge who never laughs or smiles. He is mean and only thinks about himself. He doesn't treat others nicely. He just cares about whether he can make more money and he hates Christmas. One Christmas Eve, Scrooge sees the ghost of Jacob Marley. Marley used to be just like Scrooge, so he was punished after he died. He warns Scrooge to change his ways if he doesn't want to end up like him. He also tells Scrooge to expect three spirits to visit him.
