Early or Later Day Care

The British psychoanalyst John Bowlby maintainsthat separation from the parents during the sensitive "attachment"period from birth to three may scar a child's personality and predispose toemotional problems in later life. Some people have drawn the conclusion fromBowlby's work that children should not be subjected to day care before the ageof three because of the parental separation it entails, and many people dobelieve this. But there are also arguments against such a strong conclusion.

Firstly, anthropologists point out that theinsulated love affair between children and parents found in modern societiesdoes not usually exist in traditional societies. For example, in some tribalsocieties, such as the Ngoni, the father and mother of a child did not reartheir infant alone - far from it. Secondly, common sense tells us that day carewould not be so widespread today if parents, care-takers found children hadproblems with it. Statistical studies of this kind have not yet been carriedout, and they have uniformly reported that day care had a neutral or slightlypositive effect on children's development. But tests that have had to be usedto measure this development are not widely enough accepted to settle the issue.

But Bowlby's analysis raises the possibilitythat early day care has delayed effects. The possibility that such care mightlead to, say, more mental illness or crime 15 or 20 years later can only beexplored by the use of statistics. Whatever the long-term effects, parents sometimesfind the immediate effects difficult to deal with. Children under three arelikely to protest at leaving their parents and show unhappiness. At the age ofthree or three and a half almost all children find the transition to nurseryeasy, and this is undoubtedly why more and more parents make use of child careat this time. The matter, then, is far from clear-cut, though experience andavailable evidence indicate that early care is reasonable for infants.

12、13、14、15、16题:

Many people believe the glare from snow causessnowblindnenss. Yet, dark glasses or not , they find themselves suffering fromheadaches and watering eyes,and even snowblindness,when exposed to severalhours of "snow light" .

The United States Army has now determined thatglare from snow does not cause snowblindness in troops in a snow-coveredcountry.Rather, a man's eyes frequently find nothing to foucs on in a broadexpanse of barren snow-covered terrain. So his gaze continually shifts andjumps back and forth over the entire landscape in search of tsomething to lookat. Finding nothing, hour after hour, the eyes never sotp searching and theeyeballs become sore and the eye muscles ache. Nature offsets this irritationby producing more and fluid which covers the eyeball. The fluid coverstheeyeball in increasing quantity until vision blurs, then is obsured,and theresult is total, even though temporary,snowblindness.

Experiments led the Army to a simple method ofovercoming this problem. Scouts ahead of a main body of troops are trained toshake snow from evergreen bushes, creating a dotted line as they crosscompletely snow-covered landscape,Even the scouts themselves throw lightweight, dark colored objects ahead on which they too can focus . The men followingcan then see something.Their gaze is arrested. Their eyes focus on a bush andhaving found something to see,stop scouring the snow-blanketed lanscape. Byfocusing their attention on one object at a time,the men can cross the snowwithout becoming hopelessly snowblind or lost. In this way the problem ofcrossing a solid white terrain is overcome.

1.To prevent headaches, watering eyes andblindness caused by the glare from snow, dark glasses are_____.

A.indispensible

3.Snowblindness may be avoided by_______.

A.bive the men behind something to see

B.beautify the landscape

C.warm themselves in the cold

D.prevent the men behind from losing their way
