Being a good parent is, of course, what every parent would like to be. But defining what it
means to be a good parent is undoubtedly very 1 , particularly since children respond differently
to the same style of parenting. A calm, rule-following child might respond better to a different sort
of parenting than, 2 , a younger sibling.
3 , There’s another sort of parent that s a bit easier to 4 : a patient parent. Children of every
age benefit from patient parenting. Still, 5 every parent would like to be patient, this is no easy 6.
Sometimes parents get exhausted and frustrated and are unable to maintain a 7 and composed style
with their kids. I understand this.
You’re only human, and sometimes your kids can 8 you just a little too far. And then the 9
happens: You lose your patience and either scream at your kids or say something that was a bit too
10 and does nobody any good. You wish that you could 11 the clock and start over, We’ve all been
there:
12, even though it’s common, it’s important to keep in mind that in a single moment of
fatigue. you can say something to your child that you may 13 for a long time. This may not only
do damage t0 your relationship with. your child but also 14 your child’s self-esteem.
If you consistently lose your 15 with your kids. then you are inadvertently modeling a lack of
emotional control for your kids. We are all becoming increasingly aware of the 16 of modeling
tolerance and patience for the younger generation. This is a skill that will help them all throughout
life. In fact, the ability to emotionally regulate or maintain emotional control when 17 by stress is
one of the most important of all life’s skills
Certainly, it’s incredibly 18 to maintain patience at all times with your children. A more
practical goal is to try, to the best of your ability, to be as tolerant and composed as you can when
faced with 19 situations involving your children. I can promise you this: As a result of working
toward this goal. you and your children will benefit and 20 from stressful moments feeling better
physically and emotionally.

Rats and other animals need to be highly at tuned to social signals from others so that can
identify friends to cooperate with and enemies to avoid. To find out if this extends to non-living
beings, Loleh Quinn at the University of California, San Diego, and her colleagues tested whether
rats can detect social signals from robotic rats.
They housed eight adult rats with two types of robotic rat—one social and one asocial—for 5
our days. The robots rats were quite minimalist, resembling a chunkier version of a computer
mouse with wheels-to move around and colorful markings.
During the experiment, the social robot rat followed the living rats around, played with the
same toys, and opened caged doors to let trapped rats escape. Meanwhile, the asocial robot simply
moved forwards and backwards and side to side
Next, the researchers trapped the robots in cages and gave the rats the opportunity to release
them by pressing a lever.
Across 18 trials each, the living rats were 52 percent more likely on average to set the social
robot free than the asocial one. This suggests that the rats perceived the social robot as a genuine
social being. They may have bonded more with the social robot because it displayed behaviours
like communal exploring and playing. This could lead to the rats better remembering having freed
it earlier, and wanting the robot to return the favour when they get trapped, says Quinn.
The readiness of the rats to befriend the social robot was surprising given its minimal design.
The robot was the same size as a regular rat but resembled a simple plastic box on wheels.“We’d
assumed we’d have to give it a moving head and tail, facial features, and put a scene on it to make
it smell like a real rat, but that wasn’t necessary," says Janet Wiles at the University of Queensland
in Australia, who helped with the research.
The finding shows how sensitive rats are to social cues, even when they come from basic
robots. Similarly, children tend to treat robots as if they are fellow beings, even when they display

only simple social signals.“ We humans seem to be fascinated by robots, and it turns out other
animals are too,”says Wiles.
21. Quinn and her colleagues conducted a test to see if rats can .
[A] pickup social signals from non-living rats
[B] distinguish a friendly rat from a hostile one
[C] attain sociable traits through special training
[D] send out warming messages to their fellow
22. What did the social robot do during the experiment?
[A] It followed the social robot.
[B] It played with some toys.
23. According to Quinn, the rats released the social robot because they .
[A] tried to practice a means of escape
[B] expected it to do the same in return
[C] wanted to display their intelligence
[D]considered that an interesting game
24. James Wiles notes that rats .
[A]can remember other rat’s facial features
[B] differentiate smells better than sizes
[C] respond more to cations than to looks
[D]can be scared by a plastic box on wheels
25. It can be learned from the text that rats .
[A]appear to be adaptable to new surroundings
(B] are more socially active than other animals
[C] behave differently from children in socializing
[D]are more sensitive to social cues than expected
It is fashionable today to bash Big Business. And there is one issue on which the many critics
agree: CEO pay. We hear that CEOs are paid too much (or too much relative to workers), or that
they rig others’ pay, or that their pay is insufficiently related to positive outcomes. But the more
likely truth is CEO pay is largely caused by intense competition.
It is true that CEO pay has gone up—top ones may make 300 times the pay of typical
workers on average, and since the mid-1970s, CEO pay for large publicly traded American
corporations has, by varying estimates, gone up by about 500%. The typical CEO of a top
American corporation—from the 350 largest such companies—now makes about $18.9 million a
year.
While individual cases of overpayment definitely exist, in general, the determinants of CEO
pay are not so mysterious and not so mired in corruption. In fact, overall CEO compensation for
the top companies rises pretty much. In lockstep with the value of those companies on the stock
market.
The best model for understanding the growth of CEO pay, though, is that of limited CEO
[C] It set the trapped Tats free.
[D]It moved around alone.
