A common concern we often hear with regard to single children is whether one child necessarily means a lonely child.Many single-child parents feel a dilemma associated with their decision to have only one child.There are no other children in the family for the child to associate with, and this may lead to the child feeling lonely at times, especially during vacations.
Another common argument against having just one child is that an only child may be more spoiled than one with brothers or sisters.Many people believe that a single will not have learned to negotiate with others, and respect the give-and-take involved in many relationships.Some think this may leave the child less able to interact well with people his or her own age than one who has been raised with brothers or sisters.
However, for some single-child parents, particularly those with busy careers, the pressures of giving time and energy to a second child can seem too great, resulting in them electing to have no more children.For other parents, the financial burden of having a second child may be the prime consideration.Still others believe that, ________, the parents can give, and the child can receive, more quality time and attention.This often leads to increased self-respect which, combined with increased independence, can lead to the child being more confident.

“Should there be separate classes for boys and girls?It might be a wise idea, because it is difficult to satisfy all tastes,”researchers at Leeds University in the UK last week said.
According to their report, in Britain, boys want science lessons to be about weapons of mass destruction and the effects of chemical weapons, while girls prefer to learn how to keep fit or the meanings of their dreams.
The study among 15-year-olds aimed to discover how science might be made more popular.The researchers, who contracted 1,200 English students, say“most did not like science as much as other subjects.”
The difference in results has curriculum(課程)planners considering separate classes for each sex.“The responses show a strong interest among boys in destructive technologies,”say the researchers.“while girls, by contrast, ________ their own bodies.They want to know how to deal with eating disorders, and they are interested in how to beat cancer and how to keep fit.”The differences make teaching a mixed-gender class a very difficult job.
There was, though, agreement on what boys and girl least want to learn.Both sexes were bored by the thought of studying the benefits and possible dangers of modern farming methods.Neither did they want to study“famous scientists and their lives”.

Successful people always have a dream.They dream big dreams and then show great courage to do things that others say cannot be done.
Your dreams form the foundation of success.Many people have long forgotten the dreams they used to have when they were kids.As they grow older, they are simply to catch up with their work activities so that they fail to discover what they really want to pursue in life.
To get you back on track to pursue your dreams, follow these steps:
Learn to dream again:We are born to dream.But we hear of teachers calling in school:“Stop dreaming and pay attention in class!”Parents, too, have shouted,“Stop dreaming and get on with your homework!”In the end, many do get“realistic”and give up their dreams in time.
Dream big dreams:Never set mental boundaries on what you are able to achieve.Dreams are free anyway as long as you are dreaming, you might as well dream big.Many people cannot realize their dreams and achieve greater success because they limit their own beliefs.
Flee from dream killers:Dream killers are destructive to your success.Your friends, colleagues and even loved ones can be one of your dream killers.There are people who will try to change, confuse or persuade you ________, not the life that you want.
