In these countries a high birthrate is acpanied by a lowered death rate thanks to improved standards of public health. Ideally it should be possible to counter(相反地) balance the effect of a reduced death rate by an increased use of family planning. In practice, however, population control is a plex matter. Throughout history people have determined the size of their families according to the cultural values of their societies.Population control has long been a subject of discussion among researchers. Some have argued that the supply of good land is limited. In order to feed a large population, bad land must be cultivated and the good land overworked. As a result, each person produces less in a given amount of time and this means a lower average ine than could be obtained with a smaller population. Other researchers have argued that a large population gives more range for the development of facilities such as sports, roads and railways, which are not likely to be built unless there is a big demand for them. Similarly, it can be argued that the public costs of society will not be so heavy to each individual if they are shared among the members of a large population.One of the difficulties in putting birth control into practice lies in the fact that official attitudes to population growth vary from country to country. In underdeveloped countries where a large population is pressing hard upon the limits of food, space and natural resources, it will be the first concern of government to place a limit on the birthrate. In a well developed society the problem may be more plex. A declining birthrate may lead to unemployment because it results in a decreasing market. Cities with a declining population may have to face the prospect of a decreasing tax base and a fall in land values. If there are fewer children going to school, teachers may be thrown out of work. When the pressure of population on housing declines, prices also decline and the building industry is weakened. Faced with considerations such as these, the government of a developed country may well prefer to see a slowly increasing population, rather than one that is stable or in decline.Title Population controlThemePopulation control causes (1) among researchers and countries.AmongresearchersReasons for population control It can (2) the effect of a reduced death rate.

A preschool is also known as kindergarten or nursery school, which provides basic learning skills for children between the ages of two to five. Preschools focus on getting the children to municate better with other children as well as adults around them. Preschool-education also focuses on encouraging childrens creativity and encouraging them to express their thoughts and ideas through speaking and drawing as well. Preschools also usually include simple exercises and outdoor games to make sure of the physical fitness of the children. Preschools also help develop childrens basic mathematical skills. In a word, the goals of preschool-education can be summarized (总结) as one point to develop a childs overall growth. To make the education both creative and fun, preschools can organize many preschool games and activities. For example, educational visits to the zoo or other places are an excellent way for children to learn about different types of animals and other extracurricular (课外的) knowledge. Making children exposed to educational puter games in proper levels can be a great way to improve the childrens hand-eye coordination （协调） and introduce the children to the technology. Whats more, drawing can also help in developing the childrens aesthetic (审美) sense, and it is also a creative way of expression for the preschoolers.Kids would love music and you can sing a few well-known songs in class. Teach particular actions like a few claps or shouts with the song. These body actions will help them to develop their powers of observation and memory skills. Besides this, there are several other outdoor and indoor games for preschoolers. The important rule to remember while designing a preschool activity is to keep a good balance between educational importance or learning value and entertainment. Preschoolers need activities that make the process of learning interesting.Title: Preschools(1)_Kindergarden or nursery school is where children between the age of two to five can pick up their basic learning skills before their legal education.(2) To make children municate better with other children and adults around them.To encourage childrens creativity.To encourage children to (3) their thoughts and ideas by speaking and drawing.To (4) childrens physical fitness.To develop childrens basic mathematical skills.

They sometimes have a feeling to escape from whats difficult or boring, so they jump out, he says. The part of the brain devoted to attention is connected to the brains emotional center. Any strong emotion-quarrels with colleagues, problems at home-can interrupt our attention. Studies over the last decade have shown that too much work to do at a time can easily lead to distraction.Refocusing is hard for many people. Robert Epstein suggests the following, Stop and listen to music for a few minutes. Go for a short walk or take a deep breath, where you breathe in deeply, count to five slowly, hold it and breathe out very slowly. This can blow out all the tension and the unwanted in your mind to restore your focus.Take more control by structuring your time and being more aware of your behaviors. Setting the phone alarm to go off every hour is my way of creating awareness, Mr. Bregman says, You have to inform yourself that youve lost focus in order to do something about it. Starting the day with a to-do list is important, such as when to eat, when to go to the gym or take a walk. But if its overly ambitious, you will put yourself in a state of anxiety, which makes it hard for the brain to concentrate. Choosing three or four things as your priority (优先) for the day allows your brain to settle down and focus, he says.TopicHow to bee more (1) _ on the work?(2)_ of gettingdistractedPeople tend to get away from things that theyre (3) _ up with.Strong (4) _ affect the brain s part for attention.People get distracted easily if (5) _ multitasks at a time.(6) _ of strong emotionshaving a (7) _ with a colleague.meeting with problems at homeTips on holding attentionStop working to restore your focus by (8) _ your breath and trydifferent relaxing things.(9) _ your time effectively and create awareness of your be- haviors.Make a to-do list at the beginning of a working day.Focus on 3 or 4 things and get them done (10) _ for the day.1. focused/concentrated 2.

If youre looking to expand your general happiness, you may consider adopting these in your own life.People may take an active role in their local city council, join a social club supporting causes they believe in, or find passion in their careers.

A continuous general awareness of your daily successes can have a noticeably positive effect on your overall emotional happiness.The power of endings is quite remarkable. The end of any experience has a great impact on a persons overall perception(看法) of the experience as a whole. Think about reading a well-written novel. Now imagine the ending is really poor. Even if the story was appealing until the ending, would you still be happy remending the novel to a friend? People always remember the ending.

Always tie loose ends, leave things on a good note, and create happy endings in your life whenever possible.Everyone possesses unique personal strengths. We all have different talents and skill sets.

A person who believes in himself will keep trying to reach his goal no matter how many times he fails. In my opinion, the quality of determination to succeed is an important one to have. Therefore, I believe that we should never give up. One reason is that if we give up too easily, we will rarely achieve anything. It is not unusual for us to fail in our first attempt at something new, so we should not feel disappointed and should try again. Besides, if we always give up when we fail, we will not be able to develop new skills and grow as people. Another reason we should never give up is that we can learn from our mistakes so that we cannot make the same mistakes. If we do not try again, the lesson we have learned is wasted. Finally, we should never give up because as we work to reach our goals, we develop confidence, and this confidence can help us succeed in other areas of our lives. If we never challenge ourselves, we will begin to doubt our abilities. In short, it is important that we do not give up when working for our goals. Whether we succeed in the end or not, we will learn something, and what we learn will help us to bee better, more confident people. Furthermore, if we give up, we have no chance of attaining our goals any more, but if we keep making great efforts, there is always a chance that we will succeed one day.Topic: Never Give Up Possible meanings and the authors opinionsThe words “Never give up” can 1 _ others or oneself and express ones determinationA person who wants to72 _ should have the quality.
