| If we agree that the function of education is to prepare us for life, then there is very little time to waste. So, while we can, we ought to concentrate on teaching children something really useful. Here is what our school should teach. Politeness is a mark of civilization. The sooner children learn this, the better. In any case, a lot can be accomplished by a smile and good manners. Like it or not, our adult lives will be consumed by the struggle for money, but we don't make an effort to teach children how to manage it. So our schools have a duty to teach them this ability from the beginning. We're likely no accepted something we are told, but that's not what educated people do. Educated people are reasonable and they look at facts. If our schools teach nothing else, they should at least teach critical (批 判性的) thinking. Children should learn to take care of their health. They should know that if they eat junk food (垃圾食品), they will become fat and unhealthy. They should be very clear about what happens to their bodies when they drink or smoke. All of us are part of society. We have rights and responsibilities. We ought to understand what they are. We have to know a little bit of history and geography, because we need to have an environment in which to relate to the people around us. How will we test students on these? We can't. But that's not a reason to avoid teaching what is important. Our schools should spend every moment they have telling this to our children:"This is life, this is what you are going to face, and this is how you deal with it." | ||||||||||

| In a memory-based competition between you and a chimp (猩猩); who do you think would win? If you put yourself on top, you might want to guess again. In a test that challenged participants to remember numbers, a young chimp performed better than Japanese college students. Here's how the test worked. At Kyoto University in Japan, human students and chimpanzee participants sat in front of a computer. Five numbers, ranging from 1 to 9,were combined with one another and then, they appeared at random places on the screen. The numbers stayed on the screen for less than a second. In the first test, for example, participants saw the numbers for 650 milliseconds (about two-thirds of a second). Then, each number disappeared and they saw a white square instead. Participants had to touch the squares in numerical order, based on the numbers that had been there a moment before. In this test, the students touched the boxes in the correct order about 80 percent of the time. A young chimp named Ayumu performed equally well. During a harder test, participants were only able to see the numbers for 210 milliseconds. This time, students only succeeded in putting the boxes in the correct order about 40 percent of the time. But Ayumu still could select the boxes in the right order nearly 80 percent of the time. Some people have what's called a "photographic memory," which allows them to remember a surprising number of details after just a quick glimpse of something. Ayumu's memory might work in a similar way, says lead researcher Tetsuro Matsuzawa. The chimp's young age might have something to do with his impressive perfomance, too. In previous tests, the Japanese researchers found that young chimps perfomed better than their mothers. The scientists are interested to see whether Ayumu loses his strong memory as he gmws older. They already know that young children sometimes have sharp memories when offered something photographical, but they lose this ability over time. | ||||||||||

| You may admire both the romantic love story and the mysterious city of Rome in the movie Roman Holiday. If you are planning to visit Rome, here are some cultural dos and don'ts you should know. Coffee Etiquette: Italian breakfast consists of pastry and a cup of Cappuccino or shot of espresso. Cappuccino is a morning drink and is not drunk after noon by real Italians. A post-dinner espresso, however, is a common practice. Dinner rules: Guests are expected to arrive for dinner reservations at least fifteen minutes late. In many restaurants, the printed memus are only for tourists. Regular customers know how to ask for the daily specials, which typically feature the freshest ingredients. Bread is rarely served together with butter or olive oil. Drinking water. Rome has plenty of public water fountains, and real Romans (and their dogs) always drink directly from them. Many people also refill their water bottles from these fountains. Mind the traffic: Unless there is a traffic light, or you are in a crosswalk, don't expect cars to stop for you. Though crosswalks go first, in a car-crazy city, still you'd better keep cautious and walk cautiously. Money: Always have some Euros with you. Most major hotels, restaurants and shops take credit cards, but many smaller operations will either be unwilling to accept them for smaller purchase or not accept them at all. ATMs are available throughout the city and at the airports. About soccer: Most Italian men are passionate about their soccer. Arm yourself with some knowledge of Italy's soccer scene, and you will find ready conversation partners almost everywhere. The Romans: The people here love to share their thoughts, opinions and emotions. They are creative, passionate, playful, occasionally rude or vain but always entertaining, and almost always good-humored. | ||||||||||||

| How do you enter a room full of strangers? Do you walk right in full of confidence? Or do you try to slip in without being noticed? The way you go into new situations shows your level of self-confidence. In life, we admire those who do their tasks confidently. We prefer people who appear to know what they're doing. But where does that confidence begin? Developing self-confidence starts very early. It's parents' role to get kids on the right track (軌道) toward becoming confident people. To help that process, parents should always offer more praise than criticism (批評). That can be done by focusing on the child's strengths. Parents should encourage their children to try new things and take risks. When children make mistakes, their parents should still let them know that they are loved. Children whose parents do these things will likely develop into confident adults. But self-confidence still doesn't come easily. So what's the solution (解決辦法)? With most things in life, practice makes perfect, and that is true of confidence skills. The more you practice them, the easier they will become. Always hold your head high and look people in the eye. Answer questions clearly and confidently. The way you walk shows others how confident you are. Focus on the things that you do well, and look for opportunities to use those abilities. Keep an item in clear view that reminds you of a recent success. It could be a good test score or a prize from a contest. Remind yourself that one success often leads to the next. Prepare thoroughly for every project. You'll approach the task more confidently knowing that you're ready. All humans fail at times, and you will too. But don't allow mistakes to trouble you. Learning from mistakes helps you face the same situation later without fear. Even with practice, you will never be perfect. But you can learn to love and accept yourself and live your life with confidence. | ||||||

It is the ability to make decisions and choices and to act in agreement with them. It is the ability to act rather than to be acted upon, to actively carry out the program we have developed through the other three qualities. The human will is an amazing thing. Time after time, it has overcome unbelievable difficulties. The Helen Kellers of this world give dramatic(給人深刻印象的) evidence to the value, the power of the independent will. But as we examine this quality in the context of effective self-management, we realize it's usually not the dramatic, the visible, the once-in-a-lifetime, up-by-the-bootstraps(自立自強的) effort that brings lasting success. This special ability comes from learning how to use this great quality in the decisions we make every day. The degree to which we have developed our independent will in our everyday lives is measured by our personal honesty. Honesty is, fundamentally, the value we place on ourselves. It's our ability to make and keep promises to ourselves, to "walk our talk." Effective management is putting first things first. While leadership decides what "first things" are, it is management that puts them first, day-by-day, moment-by-moment. Management is discipline (training to be self-controlled), carrying it out. Discipline obtains from belief-belief in a set of values, belief in an overriding(最主要的) purpose, to a long-term or short term goal that must be carried out. In other words, if you are an effective manager of yourself, your discipline comes from within; it is a function of your independent will. You are a follower of your own deep values and their source. And you have the will, the quality to control your feelings and moods rather than depend on others or have your work half done.
