29、ar away that can drill without a human being on board,“ says Pezzuto, the manager for the project, which is supported by the European Commission.

35、. Discovery When a 10-year-old boy gets a first-class degree in mathematics or an 8-year-old plays chess like a future grand master, they are considered as geniuses. Where does the quality of geniuses come from? Is it all in the genes or can any child be turned into a genius? And if parents do have

36、a child who might become a genius in the future, what should they do? In this 30-minute film, Barry Johnson, the professor at School of Medicine, New York University will help you discover the answer. 10:00 P.M. Science there was a piece of paper on the wall. It was a cut list. The boys whose names

37、were on the list were welcome to keep on coming to practices. The boys whose names were not on the list had been cut; their presence (出席 ) was no longer desired. I had not known the cut was coming that day. I stood and stared at the list. The list had not been made with a great deal of consideration

38、; the names of the very best players were at the top, and the other members of the team were listed in what appeared to be a descending (下降 ) order of basketball skills. I kept looking at the bottom of the list, hoping against hope that my name would appear if I looked hard enough. I held myself tog

39、ether as I walked out, but when I got home I began to cry. For the first time in my life, I had been told officially that I wasnt good enough. Sports meant everything to boys that age; if you were on the team, it put you in the desirable group. If you were not, you might as well not be alive. All th

40、ese years later, I remember it as if I were still standing right there in the gym. I dont know how the mind works in matters like this; I dont know what went on in my head following that day of cut. But 1 know that my determination has been so strong ever since then; I know that for all of my life s

41、ince that day. I have done more work than I had to be doing, put in more hours than I had to be spending. I dont know if all of that came from a determination never to allow my-self to be cut again never to allow someone to tell me that Im not good enough again but I know its there. And clearly its

Everyday parental activities such as reading, singing, and others can play a very important role in a childs healthy development. Experts (专家 ) suggest

46、 that the single most important activity for building the knowledge required for success in reading is reading aloud to children. This is especially so during the preschool years. While listening to stories read from a book, children learn at a young age that the letters on the page are connected to

47、 the words in our spoken language. They also become familiar with the language in books. Parents help children develop a lifelong love for books by reading aloud stories from books. Reading aloud to children when they are young can help their understanding of the world in which they live. They can “

48、travel“ the world through the pages of books. Consider the example of Anthony, whose mother has read to him since birth. She says, “His first visit to the zoo was a journey of rediscovery. “ Rediscovery? Yes, although Anthony was seeing zebras, lions, giraffes, and other animals for the first time,

49、he had already been introduced to them.
