B 

     Most parents hope that their children can be happy and successful. But do you know the most powerful (很有效的) way to encourage them to be so? 丁lie answer is to allow them to make their own decisions.

     Unfortunately,most parents make decisions for their children —what they wear,what they eat and what movies they watch. In fact,it's not good for children to grow up.

     Children should be allowed to make decisions when they are very young. But this doesn’t mean they are allowed to do everything. For example,you shouldn’t take your children into a store and tell them they can have anything they want. But you can give them a choice among snacks. When children get older,you can expand the number of choices you give them. For example,allow them to decide the activities they want to take part in or when they go to bed.

      The next step is to teach your children to think before they act. Let them ask themselves several important questions. First,why do I want to do this? Second,what are my choices? Third,what are the results of the actions? After the three questions,they are sure to make right decisions.

     Tigers wait until it's dark,then go out to find their food. When a tiger sees an animal,it moves very quietly,then jumps on the animal to kill it. It can take several days for a tiger to finish eating its kill. The tiger eat until it has enough,and then it covers the dead animal with leaves. Later,when the tiger is hungry again,it comes back to eat more.
