11、ent things to different people. There are several aspects that many people can agree on, though. For example, at its most basic level, respect means being kind and considerate to others.Respect can take many forms. Dont make fun of others. Put yourself in other peoples shoes and think about how they
12、 feel. Remember the Golden Rule: treat others the same way youd want to be treated.Respect is important because it sets the proper stage for all our human interactions.

15、ur respect!Be careful, though. Not everyone will show you respect all the time. In fact, youll probably see examples of impolite behaviour each and every day. How you respond to impolite behaviour, though, can make a huge difference.If you choose to respond to impolite behaviour by acting rudely you
16、rself, youve gained nothing. Youve only continued the pattern of impolite behaviour and set a bad example. Instead, act respectfully and set a good example.

20、British psychoanalyst John Bowlby believes that separation from parents during the sensitive “attachment” period from birth to three may scar a childs personality and lead to psychological problems in later life. Some people have drawn the conclusion from Bowlbys work that children should not be sub
21、jected to day care before three because of the parental separation it causes, and many people do believe this.According to Bowlby, a great deal of psychological harm can occur when young children are separated from their parents. If they are left without touch for a while, they will have a higher st
22、ress level. Parents influence on their childrens well-being may never be greater than during the earliest years of life, when a childs brain is developing rapidly and when nearly all of her or his experiences are shaped by parents and the family environment.However, there are critics. Some anthropol
23、ogists (人类学家) point out that the love affair between children and parents found in modern societies does not usually exist in traditional societies. There has been a long history of the fact that father and mother did not bring up their children alone. Plato, around 394 BC, argued that a system of e
24、arly child care would free women to participate in society. Results from Israeli and Dutch studies show that child-raising duties are more evenly distributed among a broader group of people.Besides, studies have reported that early day care has a neutral or slightly positive effect on childrens deve
25、lopment. They learn the benefits of being socially smart, understanding the concept of sharing and caring. They promote concentration skills, which is very important in their learning. There are games where children are taught basic language and mathematical skills through stories and everyday examp
26、les.Common sense tells us that early day care would not be so widespread if children had problems with it. But Bowlbys analysis raises the possibility that it has delayed effects. The possibility that such care might lead to more mental illness 15 or 20 years later can only be explored by the use of
27、 statistics. Whatever the long-term effects, parents sometimes find the immediate effects difficult to deal with. Children under three dislike leaving their parents and show unhappiness. At the age of three almost all children find it easy to go to the nursery. The matter, then, is far from being cl
28、early known, though experience and available evidence indicate that early day care is reasonable for young children.1、The passage mainly argues whether _.Achildren over three will accept school educationBchildren under three should be sent to nursery schoolsCthe family relationship is different in t

32、ave long been Chinas, ultimate convenience food.Since it was a snack for students, a meal on the train, or just the go-to choice for hungry workers, more than 46.2 billion packets were sold in China in 2013.

And about 95% of those are using smart phones to connect. And apps that offer food delivery to your home, office or
35、 wherever you happen to be are a real fast-developing industry.Their menus are undoubtedly more expensive than a pot of instant noodles. But these meals can still be inexpensive, and arguably more tasty, depending on your favor.But put in the global background, China is still easily the biggest mark
36、et for instant noodles. In fact, Chinas consumption was roughly equal to Indonesia, Japan, Vietnam, India, the US, South Korea and the Philippines combined.And that means global noodle manufacturers are unlikely to turn away from the Chinese market. Japans instant noodle business Nissin Foods, for e
37、xample, is planning to land on the stock market, in Hong Kong, by which operation it hopes to raise about 145 million dollars. It is rare for a Japanese firm to list in Hong Kong, but Nissin is talking up its prospects in China, where it is already the fifth biggest brand.“Some consumers stopped con

44、ent, but it wasnt long before the girl again started reporting pain in her eyes. They discovered more dead ants, and this time, they took her to hospital.A local doctor told Ashwinis parents that the insects must have first entered her body through the ears and then somehow made their way to her eye
