The study from psychologists Sian Beilock and Susan Levine shows a marked increase in math achievement among children whose families used Bedtime Math, an Wad app that delivers

11、 engaging math story problems for parents and children to solve together.Even children who used the app with their parents as little as once a week saw gains in math achievement by the end of the school year. The apps effect was especially strong for children whose parents tend to be anxious or unco

12、mfortable with math.Previous research from this group has demonstrated the importance of adults attitudes about math for childrens math success. For example, a recent study found that math-anxious parents who help their children with math homework actually weaken their childrens math achievement.The

13、 new findings demonstrate that structured, positive interactions around math at home can cut the link between parents uneasiness about math and childrens low math achievement.Many people experience high levels of anxiety when they have to solve a math problem, with a majority of adults feeling at le

14、ast some worries about math, said Beilock, professor in Psychology and author of Choke, a book about stress and performance. These math-anxious parents are probably less likely to talk about math at home, which affects how competent their children are in math. Bedtime Math encourages a dialogue betw

15、een parents and kids about math, and offers a way to engage in high-quality math interactions in a low-effort, high-impact way.Study participants included 587 first-grade students and their parents. Families were given an Wad installed with a version of the Bedtime Math app, with which parents and t

16、heir children read stories and answer questions involving math, including topics like counting, shapes and problem-solving. A control group received a reading app that had similar stories without the math content and questions related to reading comprehension instead. Childrens math achievement was

17、assessed at the beginning and end of the school year. Parents completed a questionnaire about their nervousness with math.The more times parents and children in the math group used the app, the higher childrens achievement on a math assessment at the end of the school year. Indeed, children who freq

18、uently used the math app with their parents outperformed similar students in the reading group in math achievement at years end.21. Bedtime Math is an iPad app that .A. requires parents and children to answer reading comprehension questionsB. encourages children together with their parents to solve

19、math story problemsC. teaches children how to count, recognize shapes and solve practical problemsD. assesses childrens math achievement and parents nervousness with math22.

21、hildren whose parents are uneasy about math outperform other studentsC. it is the math problems related to the stories that make the great differenceD. the frequency of using the app has nothing to do with childrens achievementBThe clearing of my parents home has made me think about the importance,

22、even centrality of books to the houses life and soul. The house, and our lives in it, would not have been the same without books. The force of the statement comes home to me as I see what happens when shelves are emptied. The rooms suddenly look uncomfortably bare.I always rather took it for granted

23、 that books furnished a room. The only rooms in our house without books were the dining-room and the bathrooms. Otherwise there were books everywhere: in all the bedrooms, in the drawing-room and in the piano room which became my parents comfortable winter study.I couldnt help feeling that books wer

24、e rather like people: some more formal and boring, others more entertaining; some simply for show, others with unpromising outsides but rich interiors. They did more, in fact, than furnish a room; they were companions who could offer insights, good advice.Now the books are being contributed (not all

25、, to be sure, but very many), and I fear for their future, almost as if they were refugees. Habent sua fata libelli, goes as the old Latin saying, originally written by Terentianus; it meant that the fate and future of books were determined by the capability of the reader. But the meaning of the phr

26、ase has been misunderstood by time and is now associated with the physical fate of particular books, how they have passed from owner to owner. This is how Walter Benjamin read the saying when he wrote his essay Unpacking My Library, which analyses the extraordinarily close relationship between a col

27、lector and his or her books.As I deal with the books-many are going to charity shops and I hope they will find good homes-I cant help wondering if my generation is the last that will oversee such a process. Books are disappearing, as more and more are bought in electronic form and exist only as byte

28、s of information on E-books or other devices. Does this matter? Could books become more spiritual, as they lose their physicality?24.

It might be a creative solution: an elastic(有弹性的) second skin that can be smoothed on to make aged tissue look more youthful.The wearable film, developed at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) has sho

32、wn promise in a series of small experiments where it was applied to wrinkles, under-eye bags and areas of dry skin. When applied to the face or body, the thin, transparent layer sticks to the skin and supports the tissue, making it look and behave like younger skin, its producers claim.What weve bee

33、n able to do is create a cream that you can put on the skin, and then when its on the skin it can actually form, essentially, an elastic second skin, said Bob Langer, who led the research. Tests in the lab found that the polymer film(高分子膜), which is only 70 thousandths of a millimeter thick, reduced

34、 the appearance of wrinkles and under-eye bags, and helped keep moisture(水分)in areas of dry skin.The layer is designed to be applied in the morning, then peeled off at night. In previous studies, the second skin withstood normal daily wear, and the stresses and strains of exercise and swimming, with

35、out falling off or causing irritation. It also survived exposure to rain.Its something you can wear for a whole day or longer, depending on the physical forces that get applied to the area where it is worn, said Daniel Anderson, who helped develop the product at MIT, You cant tell youre wearing it.W
