Unless children believe they can succeed, they will never bee totally independent.My daughter Carlas fifth-grade teacher made every child in her class feel special. When students received less than a perfect test score, she would point out what they had mastered and declared firmly they could learn what they had missed.You can use the same technique when you evaluate your childs work at home. Dont always scold and give lots of praise instead. Talk about what he had done right, not about what he hasnt done. If your child pletes a difficult task, promise him a Sunday trip or a ball game with Dad.Learning is a process of trying and failing and trying and succeeding. If you teach your children not to fear a mistake of failure, they will learn faster and achieve success at last.11. The whole passage deals with _.

Enter the Red Hat Society a group holding the belief that old ladies should have fun.“My grandmothers didnt do anything but keep house and serve everybody. They were programmed to do that,” said Emily Cornette , head of a chapter of the 7-year-old Red Hat Society.While men have long spent their time fishing and playing golf, women have sometimes seemed to bee unnoticed as they age. But the generation now turning 50 is the baby boomers(生育高峰期出生的人), and the same people who refused their parents way of being young are now trying a new way of growing old.If you take into consideration feminism(女权主义), a bit of spare money, and better health for most elderly, the Red Hat Society looks almost inevitable(必然的). In this society, women over 50 wear red hats and purple(紫色的) clothes, while the women under 50 wear pink hats and light purple clothing.“The organization took the idea from a poem by Jenny Joseph that begins: “When I am an old woman, I shall wear purple. With a red hat which doesnt go,” said Ellen Cooper, who founded the Red Hat Society in 1998. When the ladies started to wear the red hats, they attracted lots of attention.“The point of this is that we need a rest from always doing something for someone else,” Cooper said. “Women feel so ashamed and sorry when they do something for themselves.” This is why chapters are discouraged from raising money or doing anything useful. “Were a ladies play group. It couldnt be more simple,” added Coopers assistant Joe Heywood.16The underlined word “chapter” in paragraph 2 means _.Aone branch of an organization Ba written agreement of a clubCone part of a collection of poems Da period in a societys history17From the text, we know that the “baby boomers” are a group of people whoAhave gradually bee more noticeable Bare worried about getting old too quicklyCare enjoying a good life with plenty of money to spendDtried living a different life from their parents when they were young18It could be known from the text that members of the Red Hat Society are .Ainterested in raising money for social work Bprogrammers who can plan well for their futureCbelievers in equality between men and womenDgood at cooking big meals and taking care of others19Who set up the Red Hat Society ?AEmily Cornette.
