Thats exactly when the controlling mom swallows it up whole out of frustration. The short film actually reflects the condit

4、ion of the director herself and of most Chinese families. In China, “widowstyle childcare” describes many Chinese mothers ending in recent years. The term describes a bitter social reality: Once the child is born, the father disappears. He would work, drink all night, or do anything except help his

5、 wife take care of their child. As a result, the mother would throw herself completely into raising the child, without having a life of her own. She needs to know where her child is every moment, what he or she is doing whenever possible — even if the child has attained adulthood. She can be bossy,

6、anxious and seemingly unreasonable. She represents many Chinese mothers of today. Believe me, such an unnatural relationship can harm both mother and child. When one grows up, he or she may find it difficult to fit in with society. As for the mother, she would feel lonely as long as her child is no

8、I grew up and went to college, she wouldnt interfere in my life because she had already taught me to distinguish good from bad. I dont need to worry about her as she has her own life — loves yoga, cooking, and even started to learn English when she was 40. Now she hangs out with her foreign friends

9、from time to time just like teenagers. I believe this is a healthy mother — child relationship as the two are independent individuals. Indeed, the mother needs to take care of her child. But instead of providing the fish, it is more important to teach one how to fish. Thus when the child grows up,

10、both have their own life, and do not become attached to each other. A mother is not supposed to control her child for life. By doing so, she would only be pushing her son or daughter away from her because nobody wants to live in a prison made of love. But the film has a happy ending. The woman find

23、rgy starts to fade? Deny, deny, deny. A large body of research has been developed in recent years to explain many aspects of willpower.Most of the researchers exploring selfcontrol do so with an obvious goal in mind: How can willpower be strengthened? Avoiding temptation is one effective strategy

24、for maintaining selfcontrol.In Walter Mischels marshmallow(軟糖) study, the children who stared directly at the treat were less likely to resist it than were kids who closed their eyes, turned away or otherwise distracted themselves.This principle applies to adults, too.One recent study, for instance,

25、 found office workers who kept candy in a desk drawer ate less than when they kept the candy in plain sight. Another helpful technique for improving selfcontrol is an “implementation (履行) intention.” For example, someone who is watching their alcohol intake might say before a party, “If anyone offe

26、rs me a drink, then Ill ask for club soda.” Research among adolescents and adults has found that implementation intentions improve selfcontrol, even among people whose willpower has been reduced by laboratory tasks. Just like a muscle that gets tired with heavy use, there is another aspect to the

27、muscle comparison.While muscles become exhausted by exercise in the short term, they are strengthened by regular exercise in the long term.Similarly, regularly exercising selfcontrol may improve willpower strength. The evidence from willpowerdepletion studies also suggests that making a list of re

28、solutions (心愿) on New Years Eve is the worst possible approach.Being used in one area can reduce willpower in other areas, so dont try to quit smoking, adopt a healthy diet and start a new exercise plan at the same time.Taking goals one by one is a better approach.Once a good habit is in place, youl

29、l no longer need to draw on your willpower to maintain the behavior.Eventually healthy habits will become routine and wont require making decisions at all.

33、一篇說明文，主要講述了意志力會(huì)減弱以及增強(qiáng)意志力的辦法。 1．limited　根據(jù)右邊表格“★Just like muscle, willpower decreases as you use it more.In the parole instance, the judge made more unfair judgements as time passed.”可知，人的意志力是有限的，故填limited。 2．unfair　根據(jù)第二段“At the beginning of the day, a judge will give each case a fair shot.But as t

34、heir energy starts to fade? Deny, deny, deny.”可知，隨著時(shí)間的推移，法官的精力開始消退，就會(huì)做出不公平的判決，故填unfair。 3．staying/keeping　根據(jù)第四段“Avoiding temptation is one effective strategy for maintaining selfcontrol.”可知，避免誘惑是保持自我控制的一個(gè)有效策略。“staying/keeping away from temptations”與“avoiding temptation”同義。 4．sight　根據(jù)第四段“One recent

36、行) intention.’”可知，另一個(gè)提高自我控制能力的有用技巧是履行目標(biāo)，即事先要有一個(gè)目標(biāo)。 6．instead　根據(jù)第五段“If anyone offers me a drink, then Ill ask for club soda.”可知，如果有人請我喝一杯，我就要蘇打水代替。故填instead。 7．practice/exercise/training　根據(jù)“While muscles become exhausted by exercise in the short term, they are strengthened by regular exercise in th

38、f resolutions (心愿) on New Years Eve is the worst possible approach.Being used in one area can reduce willpower in other areas”可知，意志枯竭研究的證據(jù)還表明，在除夕夜列一份心愿清單是最不可能的辦法。在一個(gè)領(lǐng)域使用會(huì)降低其他領(lǐng)域的意志力。即意志力會(huì)被分成若干部分。故填divided/split。 10．news　根據(jù)右邊表格“People can strengthen their willpower with the right approaches.”可知，人們可以用正確的方法來增強(qiáng)自己的意志力，這是一個(gè)好消息，所以填news。 7
