24、ashion show. D. In a book review.CGetting your children to stop lying is challenging. There are many influences (TV, movies, video games and some great books) in which lies are common. Children see parents lie to others, if only to be polite. Most parents add to that with tales about the lives and a
25、ctivities of Santa Claus or the Tooth Fairy, or to allay fears. (“This will not hurt!”) Parents do this out of love, but for some children, lying can become a problem. The most common reactions to children who lie are explaining why it is wrong and punishment. But as ways of changing behavior, these
26、 are ineffective.However, what counts is to praise. You could ask your child to say something that happened at school that is true. It is not critical what that is. This is about practice. When your child complies, praise him enthusiastically. Be specific: “That was great! You told me what happened
27、just like I asked. Wow!” and give your child a hug or a high five. If your child says something true in the course of her day, praise that behavior too. Aim for one or two interactions like this a day. If you happen to “catch” your child in a lie, be matter-of-fact in your disapproval. Say something
28、 like, “That is not true and could get you in trouble outside of the hoe; it is better to say the truth.”Besides, you should set a good example to your kids and tell the truth explicitly. This could be about something that happened when you were a child or something that happened during the day. It
29、need not be dramatic. Another option is to play a game at dinner. Each person tells one thing that was true that day. Again, give a little praise to the child who normally lies if she plays along.In most instances, children are unlikely to change behavior or develop the conduct you want. That does n
30、ot mean ignoring, lying or letting it go. Rather, use very mild punishment (light reprimand, short loss of privilege, a brief time-out). More severe, harsh or enduring punishments (shouting, taking away something for a week, hitting) are not more effective in actually changing the frequency of lying
31、.Try these procedures for two to three weeks and see where you are. Usually they can be dropped by then. It is unlikely that lying will be completely removed, but with the right encouragement, it can be dramatically lessened.28. Which punishment is relatively ineffective?A. A brief time-out. B. Ligh
32、t reprimand.C. Short loss of privilege. D. Taking away something for a week.29. What can we conclude from the passage?A. Parents can tell lies sometimes. B. Lying will disappear thoroughly.C. Punishment can change behaviors. D. Praising your kids a lot is beneficial.30. Which of the following could
33、serve as the best title?A. Is Lying a Problem? B. Can Kids Stop Lying?C. What Can You Do When Kids Tell lies? D. How Can You Punish Your Kids for Lying?31.

34、teering (驾驶) and braking, could be available within five to ten years. Pioneered by Nissan, the Japanese motoring giant unveiled their Brain-to-Vehicle technology (B2V) at the CES 2018 trade show in Las Vegas, US. The company claims it will enable vehicles to interpret signals from the drivers brain
35、, redefining how drivers interact with their cars.Nissan also said that as well as making road travel safer, the cars will keep adapting to make driving more enjoyable. “When most people think about autonomous driving, they have a very impersonal vision of the future, where humans relinquish control
36、 to the machines,” said the companys Executive President Daniele.“Yet B2V technology does the opposite, by using signals from their own brain to make the drive even more exciting and enjoyable. Through Nissan Intelligent Mobility, we are moving people to a better world by delivering more autonomy, m
37、ore electrification and more connectivity.”The development is the result of Nissans research into the use of brain decoding technology which can predict a drivers actions and detect discomfort. By catching signs that the drivers brain is about to initiate a movement - such as turning the steering wh

This can improve reaction times and enhance manual driving.“Other possible uses include adjusting the vehicles internal environment,” said Dr Lucian, whos leading the B2V research. For example, the technolo
39、gy can use enhanced reality to adjust what the driver sees and create a more relaxing environment. “The potential applications of the technology are incredible. This research will be a boost (促 进) for more Nissan innovation inside our vehicles in the years to come.”Nissans goal is to offer the best
40、driving assistance in manual driving mode so that a driver can be in complete control of his or her car. They hope to implement the technology into their vehicles in between five to ten years.32.
