32、em to be very poor at remembering and understanding what hes heard at school.Why should this be?

33、od hearing memories. Other children find it easier to learn and remember things by what they see. Theyve got good seeing memories. Some children have equally good ability at both seeing and hearing in learning things. Others, less fortunate, seem to have poor hearing and seeing-memories. Most childr

34、en, Id say, unknowingly prefer one method over the other for learning and remembering.But this favoring of one sense over the other is a bad habit and deprives (使不能) the child of the full use of his natural senses. Mrs. Alien was clearly incredulous when I told her there was nothing wrong with her s

35、ons heating. “But he never seems to really understand what he hears, thats what his teachers tell me,“ she said.“My psychological examination of William shows hes weak in his hearing memory,“ I said, “but he has perfectly normal intelligence and can learn in school.“Our family doctor examined Willia

36、m and he says the boys hearing was all right. So, that proves youre right on that point,“ admitted Mrs. Alien. “So how can we help him?

41、r the parents to use at home.（分数：1.00）A.B.C.D.CHave you ever thought about what determines the way we are as we grow up? Remember the TV program “Seven Up“? It started following the lives of a group of children in 1963. We first meet them as wide-eyed seven-year-olds and then catch up with them at s

42、even-year intervals: nervous 14-year-olds, serious 21 -year-olds, then grown-ups.Some of the stories are inspiring, others sad, but what is interesting in almost all the cases is the way in which the childrens early hopes and dreams are shown in their future lives. For example, at seven, Tony is a l

43、ively child who says he wants to become a sportsman or a taxi driver. When he grows up, he goes on to do both. How about Nicki?

44、 teaching in India.But if the lives of all the children had followed this pattern the program would be far less interesting than it actually was.

45、at they wanted to do when they grew up? Are children influenced by what their parents do, by what they see on television, or by what their teachers say?

46、e turning point in their byes.
