18、n show CMy best friend and I were in the shop that she owns. It was the middle of the afternoon; we were both pretty happy and making plans for the weekend, and the atmosphere was extremely relaxed, almost lazy. Suddenly a man entered the shop. We knew, somehow, that he didnt look like one of our us

19、ual customers, but we welcomed him politely anyway. Without any hesitation he pulled something out of his coat that we did not recognize immediately, but when he ordered us to go into the back with him, there was no doubt that this “something” was a gun.Giving us precise orders, he offended us and k

21、as not alone. Then I began to understand the news and I learnt that horrible things were happening “out there”, but I still kept thinking that those events were just other peoples worries, not mine. From the precise moment the guy walked out of the shop. I completely changed my way of relating to th

22、e world. I always look around to see which kinds of people are possibly following me. Now I usually double check everything: If Ive locked myself in the car or in the house.

We could have died or he could have beaten or raped

24、 us! I know that I have to work on it because since that day I havent felt safe anymore. What I dont know is where to start.

However, the answers provided by Japanese preschools are not the ones Americans expected to find. In most Japanese preschools, surpris

29、ingly little emphasis is put on academic instruction. In one survey, 300 Japanese and 210 American preschool teachers, child development specialists, and parents were asked about various aspects of early childhood education. Only 2 percent of the Japanese respondents(答问卷者)listed “to give children a

To prepare children for successful careers in first grade and beyond, Japanese schools do not teach reading, writ

The huge majority of young Japanese children are taught to read at home by their parents.Like in America, there is diversity(多样性) in Japanese early childhood education. Some
