According to some researchers, you should not praise children for everything that they do. It does not help them build self-confidence.
Most parents and teachers agree that praise can help increase children’s self-confidence —the more, the better. However, according to some researchers, only proper praise is good for children. If adults praise everything children do, it makes children look for praise all the time, not trying to do their best. \should not say things like 'good job’ or 'nice work’ whenever a child does something. They should encourage them to continue to improve,\
Another idea is that children with high self-confidence are happier, and do better at school. About this, Marshall Duke, a researcher in children, says, \happier, get more, or become able to do more. Finding a child’s strengths (强项) and developing them can help build confidence more than too much praise can.\影响) if it is given equally to all students.

You have been learning English for about seven years. 36 And you still can’t make yourself understood in English. However, you love learning English. How can you learn English well?
Many people have asked this question. 37 Here are several tips for learning English. ● 38
First of all, you must want to learn. If you are not interested in learning English, no class will help you and no book will help you. So you have to be honest with yourself. Ask yourself, “Do I really want to learn English?” If you can’t answer “yes” to this question, it is better for you to set English aside until you’re ready and willing to learn.
● Set goals (目标).
To learn English well, you must set some goals. 39 It will also help you to see your progress. Ask yourself, “What are my goals? What areas would I like to improve?” Think about what your goals are, and review once in a while to see that you are making progress toward your goals.
● Practice, practice, and practice.
After you have set your goals, you have a better idea of what you need to practice. Just like the athlete whose goal is the Olympics must train daily, you as a language learner must practice language every day to make progress toward your goal. 40 A. Want to learn. B. I think it is not easy to learn it well. C. Make friends with some Americans online. D. Reading is a very good way to learn new words. E. The answers are as different as the people asking the question. F. The more you practice, the more progress you will make. G. Having goals will help you remember what areas you want to work on.
