Romanticism  (浪漫主义)  was  a  literary,  artistic  and  intellectual  movement  that  originated  in  Europe  towards  the  end  of  the  18th  century.  And  it  reached  its  peak  from  1800  to  1840.
Romanticism  urged  people  to  look  at  nature  and  surroundings  from  a  scientific  point  of  view.  It  was  also  a  rebellion  against  scientific  rationalization  (合理化  )  of  nature.  It  permitted  a  person's  imagination  and  freedom  in  art.  The  concept  of  romanticism  was  present  in  all  the  major  art  forms,  like  literature,  the  visual  arts  and  music.
Friedrich  Schlegel,  a  German  philosopher,  writer  and  critic,  used  the  term  “Romantic”  for  the  first  time  to  name  a  new  school  of  literature  which  arose  in  opposition  to  “Classicism”.  Though  the  concept  of  Romanticism  was  identified  much  earlier,  critics  believe  that  Romanticism  in  English  literature  dates  from  the  Lyrical  Ballads.  The  romantics  were  very  interested  in  mystery,  ambition  and  adventure.
In  the  visual  arts,  the  term  Romanticism  refers  to  a  trend  that  appeared  in  the  19th  century,  which  was  characterized  by  opposition  to  the  classical  forms  and  its  rules.  Romanticism  in  the  visual  arts  focused  more  on  the  spiritual  and  emotional  representation  of  nostalgia(怀旧).  Romantics  used  objects,  like  wild  trees,  moonlight,  and  so  on,  to  convey  their  ideas  and  concepts.
In  music,  Romanticism  was  characterized  by  the  freedom  of  forms  and  an  emphasis  on  the  emotions.  It  was  German  composers  who  used  romanticism  widely  and  developed  this  concept.  Many  famous  composers  worked  in  smaller  forms  of  music  that  had  flexible  structure;  for  instance,  ballads,  solo  piano  music,  and  so  on.
Romanticism  influenced  the  literature  and  arts  of  the  18th  and  19th  century.  The  popularity  of  this  movement  declined  gradually  with  passing  time,  but  it  has  a  significant  place  in  the  history  of  literature  and  art  development.

Make Up Your Mind to Succeed
Kind-hearted parents have unknowingly left their children defenseless against failure.The generation (age) born between 1980 and 2001 grew up playing sports where scores (marks) and performance (show) were played down because “everyone's winner.” And their report cards sounded more positive than ever before.As a result, Stanford University professor Carol Dweck, PhD, calls them “the overpraised generation.”
Dweck has been studying how people deal with failure for 40 years.Her research has led her to find out two clearly different mind-sets that have a great effect on how we react to it.Here's how they work:
  A fixed mind-set is grounded in the belief that talent is genetic – you're a born artist, point guard, or numbers person.The fixed mind-set believes it's sure to succeed without much effort and regards failure as personal shame.When things get difficult, it's quick to blame (liability), lie, and even stay away from future difficulties.
  On the other hand, a growth mind-set believes that no talent is entirely heaven-sent and that effort and learning make everything possible.Because the ego (自尊) isn't on the line as much, the growth mind-set sees failure as a chance rather than shame.When faced with a difficulty, it's quick to rethink, change and try again.In fact, it enjoys this experience.
  We are all born with growth mind-sets.(Otherwise, we wouldn't be able to live in the world.) But parents, teachers, and instructors often push us into fixed mind-sets by encouraging certain actions and misdirecting praise.Dweck's book, Mind-set: The New Psychology of Success, and online instructional program explain this in depth.But she says there are many little things you can start doing today to make sure that your children, grandchildren and even you are never defeated by failure.
What does the author think about the present generation?

A.They don't do well at school.
B.They are often misunderstood.
C.They are eager to win in sports
D.They are given too much praise.

A fixed mind-set person is probably one who ___ .

A.doesn't want to work hard
B.cares a lot about personal safety
C.cannot share his ideas with others
D.can succeed with the help of teachers

What does the growth mind-set believe?

A.Admitting failure is shameful.
B.Talent comes with one's birth.
C.Getting over difficulties is enjoyable.
D.Scores should be highly valued.

There is a kind of shopping that is called compulsive(强迫性的) shopping. Compulsive shopping is usually described as out of control and not reasonable.
How can we know whether we are one of compulsive shoppers? Compulsive shoppers go out and buy things much more often than other people do.They often buy things they do not need.Many times they will spend over their budget limits and get into deep financial trouble.While someone else will think many times if they can afford this or that thing,compulsive shoppers will have no awareness of the boundaries of a budget.They also often hide the things they have bought in order not to be blamed by other family members.They often refuse to admit their problem and cover up their debts with cheat.
Compulsive shopping usually occurs when a person feels sad,lonely or angry. Shopping will not guarantee more love,or cure the hurts,regrets,stress,and the problems of everyday life. Just the opposite, it eventually may make these feelings worse because of the increased financial problems the person has got from this addiction. Some families even lead to a divorce as compulsive shoppers spend a lot of time away from home.
Treating a shopping addiction requires various approaches.The best thing to start with is to recognize the problem by compulsive shoppers themselves. First of all,don’t use their credit cards,and instead,start paying by cash. It might be useful to make a shopping list in order to buy strictly what is needed.And if there is a chance to get attracted, it might help to have just some small money and leave the wallet at home.It is also good to ask family and friends for support. And if after all these people still feel out of control,then it is recommended to seek professional advice or a selfhelp group to deal with this problem.

Guiding students through open-ended discussions can help students develop their understanding of the nature of science.
One useful practice in classroom discussions involves developing a discussion map. A discussion map is a graphic timeline created by the teacher on which a discussion is recorded --- who initially states the idea and who adds to or refuses the idea.
Discussion maps let teachers gain a deep understanding of students’ level of participation, the origins of ideas, and the claims that seem meaningful, useful, and/or reasonable to students. They also give the teacher an idea of students’ science thoughts of phenomena and ideas.
To make a discussion map, the teacher needs to do a couple of things. First, the teacher needs to keep informed of the ideas that are shared and who shared the idea. The teacher does this as the children talk, making quick notes of the ideas and thoughts. It can be helpful to record the discussion, but it isn’t required. Then, after the discussion is over, the teacher reflectively creates the discussion map to clarify the understanding of the ideas and connections that students were making in their talk.
Educators have identified discussions as consistent with reform recommendations in that they help children learn about the nature science and are useful in combining literacy and science. It is suggested that discussions can be useful for teachers in evaluating students’ ideas and building excitement as science. Discussions offer windows on students’ thinking, provide students who struggle in reading and writing with a chance to participate more actively in class, and create situations where students can express their ideas differently than in traditional schools tasks.
However, I suggest that there are additional reasons for having reasoned discussions in classrooms. First, discussions like this allow students to use their own vocabulary --- the words and terms that make sense to them and their classmates --- to drive the intellectual and academic work of understand phenomena. Many times learning science can become focused on learning terms but not necessarily understanding and explaining phenomena. Second, discussions allow students to think about their experiences and the things that they know and try to reconcile these with science ideas. This is challenging, but working together with classmates can help. Finally, reasoned discussions are fundamentally scientific because they offer an open forum that allows all students to be heard, and students’ ideas can be evaluated and connected to their experiences with scientific explanations of those phenomena. For example, during the children’s reasoned discussion about plants, the group came to the agreement that seeds grow into plants. The students understood that most seeds get buried in the ground, the seeds get wet, and then plants grow. This led to a question about whether the seed was still in the ground when the plant had grown into an adult plant. The students came up with several ideas about where the seeds were. During this conversation, the teacher took careful notes so that later investigations could respond to the questions that children were asking. Thus the students were working together using their ideas and understandings and realized something as a group that they didn’t understand as individuals.

Discussion maps make sense!
