21、ate homework. However, their parents hate homework, too.Is it good for kids to do homework? Of course, a great number of researches do show that kids can remember what they have learnt in class better by finishing their homework on time and homework itself plays an important role in developing their
22、 learning skills, such as independent thinking and creativity.But for parents, the result is not the same. After a day of hard work, most of them feel like theyre going through school a second time when they sit down with their children each night to help with their homework. And a recent survey fou
23、nd that 46 percent of parents feel like they dont spend enough quality time with their children, because they spend too much time doing the housework or helping with homework.

28、teps. Is someone following you? How do you know the footsteps are someone elses and not your own?You can tell because your brain(大脑)has the ability to ignore(忽略)certain sounds, according to a study from New York University in the US. Because of this, we often ignore our own footsteps. But we may eas
29、ily hear others footsteps.Scientists tested this on mice. They found that when mice became familiar with the sound of their own footsteps, they developed a “sensory filter(感觉过滤器)”. This allowed the mice to ignore the sounds of their own footsteps. They could more easily notice the sounds of their en
30、vironment.“For mice, this is really important because they need to listen for a cat getting close to them, even when they are walking and making noise.” Said David Schneider, one of the lead authors of the study.Our minds dont just ignore our footsteps. We also ignore some other sounds that we make
31、ourselves, including the sound of eating, breathing heavily and typing on a keyboard. Being able to ignore these unimportant noises lets us focus on(集中精神)more important and dangerous ones. For example, we are quick to notice the sound of a baby crying. So we can rush to make sure they are okay and k

40、ird, try to change your questions into statements and talk in the first person so that people will understand you more easily.

42、 be used to too much openness.
