forward to and won’t need me to support them. It all really gets me down.
With such lousy marks on my transcript I couldn’t get into a good cramming class – only into one that’s got kids with really hopeless scores in it. We’re all pretty down about it. One of the boys complained in class, “What crimes have we committed? Why’ve we got to work even harder than adults?” “Your crime was failing the college entrance exams,” the teacher said, “and that’s serious. It isn’t easy for your parents to find the money to send you to this class. You have to feel sorry for them.” He had us all in tears. But who feels sorry for us?
college the only thing for one to do in education? 3. What are the social, economical and cultural reasons for
this nation-wide college mania?

It’s never too late and you’re never too old to learn.University study isn’t just for school-leavers. The universityculture is changing, with more and more people studying later in life.And it’s a grea t way to get to know new people.The story of your education is to be continued.Education is a powerful tool —a tool you can use to shape your life and the world in which you live.By making university study more accessible and achievable, continuing education programs place the tools of knowledge and learning within reach.So, the story of your education doesn’t stop here. It’s only just beginning.2. The Open University (UK)The Open University calls it ―OU supported open learning‖. It’s a method of di stance learning that’s accessible to everybody living in the European Union.

The author himself would like to go right back to being a freshman and study philosophy, calculus, literature, history and grammar. He does recognize that if he were studying for the knowledge and not for earning grades, education would probably become less stressful and more fun.Step 4 AssignmentsReview the words and phrases in Passage BSection III Write and Produce (2 periods)Step 1 Revision (10 mins)Dictation of words and phrases in Passage A and BStep 2 Grammar (35 mins)分句译法(Splitting)总体说来，汉语多用―短句‖，而英语则多用―长句‖。

One is the subject which is concerned more with theories, and the history of theories, than with the storing of the mind with such information and knowledge as theories are built upon: such a subject, and a very popular one, is economics, which consists of a number of complicated and contradictory theories, a subject by no means proved to be a science, usually based on illicit assumptions, the bastard progeny8 of a parent it disowns, ethics. Even philosophy, when divorced from theology and from the knowledge of life and of ascertainable facts, is but a famishing pabulum, or a draught stimulating for a moment, leaving behind drought and disillusion.
Those who have a real genius for acquiring these dead languages are few, and they are pretty likely of their own accord to devote themselves to the Classics – if they are given the opportunity. But there are many more of us who have gifts for modern languages, or for our own language, or for history, who have only a modest capacity for mastering Latin and Greek. We can hardly be expected to realize, during adolescence, that without a foundation of Latin and Greek we remain limited in our power over these other subjects.

Unlike anthropologists or sociologists, historians have not studied family life very closely. Until recently we knew very little of the age at which people married in Western Europe in the centuries earlier than the nineteenth or how many children they had, or what the rates of illegitimacy might be or whether, newly wed, they lived with their parents or set up a house of their own. Few of these questions can be answered with exactitude even now, but we can make better guesses. We know even less, however, of the detailed sexual practices that marriage covered: indeed this is a subject to which historians are only just turning their attention. But we do know much more of the function of

5 The men who had worked on haciendas knew of these matters. We heard snatches of firsthand reports from them but mostly we learned from Don Catarino, Jose, Don Cleofas, and the muleteers who passed through Jalco. Whoever had been there came back cursing it. The riding boss was the Devil on horseback; in the company store every centavo you earned was taken back by a clerk who kept numbers in a book that proved you always owed him something. If a peon left the hacienda before his contract was over and his debts were paid, he became a fugitive. He either returned to his pueblo, his compadres and his milpa in some far-off place in the mountains, or he scratched for a living, lost in the forest.

3 The value of parental affection to children lies largely in the fact
that it is more reliable than any other affection. One’s friends like
one for one’s merits, one’s lovers for one’s charms; if the merits or
the charms diminish, friends and lovers may vanish. But it is in
times of misfortune that parents are most to be relied upon, in
illness, and even in disgrace if the parents are of the right sort. We

1 On Tuesday, March 31, he and I dined at General Paoli’s. A question was started, whether the state of marriage was natural to man. Johnson, “Sir, it is so far from being natural for a man and woman to live in a state of marriage, that we find all the motives which they have for remaining in that connection, and the restraints which civilized society imposes to prevent separation, are hardly sufficient to keep them together.” The General said, that in a state of nature a man and woman uniting together would form a strong and constant affection, by the mutual pleasure each would receive; and that the same causes of dissension would not arise between them, as occur between husband and wife in a civilized state.

aggressive intent. Again the uncle slapped it, scolded it, and sent it away. This treatment went on day after day. After some time, as soon as the kitten saw or smelled that mouse, it screamed and tried to climb up the walls. At that point the uncle lost patience and gave the kitten away, saying that it was stupid and would never learn. Of course the kitten had learned perfectly, and had learned exactly what it had been taught, but unfortunately not what the uncle intended to teach. “I can sympathize with that kitten,” says Chekhov, “because the same uncle tried to teach me Latin.”

“Sir, they would have dissensions enough, though of another kind. One would choose to go hunting in this wood, the other in that; one would choose to go fishing in this lake, the other in that; or, perhaps, one would choose to go hunting, when the other would choose to go fishing; and so they would part. Besides, Sir, a savage man and a savage woman meet by chance; and when the man sees another woman that pleases him better, he will leave the first.” …
biological in his outlook, for anyone who will observe an animal mother with her young can see that her behavior towards them follows an entirely different pattern from her behavior towards the male with whom she has sex relations. And this same different and instinctive pattern, though in a modified and less definite form, exists among human beings. If it were not for this special emotion there would be almost nothing to be said for the family as an institution, since children might equally well be left to the care of professionals. As things are, however, the special affection which parents have for children, provided their instincts are not atrophied, is of value both to the parents themselves and to the children.

Families may be monogamous or polygamous – there are s3ystems where one man is entitled to several wives and others where several husbands share one wife. A society may recognize primarily the small nuclear conjugal unit of husband and wife with their immediate descendants or it may institutionalize the large extended family linking several generations and emphasizing consanguinity more
than the conjugal bond. Residence after marriage may be matrilocal, patrilocal or neolocal; exchanges of goods and services between families at the time of marriage may be based on bride price, groom price or an equal exchange; endogamous or exogamous regulations may indicate who is and who is not eligible for marriage; the choice of a mate may be controlled by parents or it may be left in large measure to the young persons concerned. These are but a few of the many differences which characterize family structures in variant13 societies.

(Pictures of tepees) Houses for buffalo hunters…
4 Not all Native Americans (used to be called American Indians) live in tents (or tepees as they call them). Only those Indian nations that hunted and followed the wild buffalo herds built themselves tepees with long wooden poles and leather skins, which were left over after the hunters had eaten all the buffalo meat or dried it for food in the winter months. Tepees have a small hole at the very top where the smoke can flow out — like igloos. The tents are so light that they can be transported on horseback without any problem.

Combining medication with interventions36 that model and reinforce appropriate academic and social behavior seems to be the most effective approach to treatment. Family intervention is also important. Inattentive, overactive children strain the patience of parents, who are likely to react punitively and inconsistently – a child-rearing style that strengthens inappropriate behavior. Breaking this cycle is as important for ADHD children as it is for the defiant, aggressive youngsters. In fact, 35 percent of the time, these two sets of behavior problems occur together.
