It is difficult for nearly every family to teach their children to be responsible for housework, but with one of the following suggestions, you really can get your children to help at home.
If you give your children the impression that they can never do anything quite right, then they will regard themselves as unfit or unable persons. Unless children believe they can succeed, they will never become totally independent.
My daughter Larla’s fifth-grade teacher made every child in her class feel special. When students receive less than a perfect test score she would point out what they had mastered and declare firmly they could learn what they had missed.
You can use the same technique when you evaluate (评价) your child’s work at home. Don’t always scold and give lots of praise instead. Talk about what he has done right, not about what he has not done. If your child completes a difficult task, reward him with a Sunday trip or a ball game with Dad.
Learning is a process of trying and succeeding. If you teach your children not to fear a mistake or failure, they will learn faster and achieve success at last.

The human nose has given to the language of the world many interesting expressions. Of course, this is not surprising. Without the nose, we could not breathe or smell. It is the part of the face that gives a person special character. Cyrano de Bergerac said that a large nose showed a great man----courageous, manly and wise.
A famous woman poet wished that she had two noses to smell a rose. Blaise Pascal made an interesting remark about Cleopatra’s nose. If it had been shorter, he said, it would have changed the whole face of the world!
Man’s nose has had an important role in his imagination. Man has referred to the nose in many ways to express his emotions. Expressions dealing with the nose refer to human weakness, anger, pride, jealousy and revenge.
In England there are a number of phrases about the nose. For example, to hold up one’s nose express a basic human feeling- pride. People can hold up their noses at people, things and places.
The phrase to be led around by the nose, shows man’s weakness. A person who is led around by the nose lets other people control him. On the other hand, a person who follows his nose lets instinct guide him.
There are a number of others. However, it should be as plain as the nose on your face that the nose is more than an organ for breathing and smelling.

When you get to the country, you must be very careful not to do anything that will cause damage.
First of all, not playing with matches! You could easily cause a serious fire. One thing you must always remember to do is to close gates after you. If you don’t, an animal could easily either get killed on the road or get into a field where valuable crops are growing and damage them. And of course you must not damage the crops either. So always keep to the path when crossing a field, even if there is only grass growing there; grass is very valuable. Don’t throw any rubbish away; take it home with you. Besides looking unpleasant, it can make animals ill or even kill them. If you see any water, be careful not to pollute it in any way. It may be going to supply millions of homes. I’m sure I don’t have to tell you not to harm any animals or birds or their eggs. And if you pick wild flowers, you will spoil the pleasure they give other people.
