A
Seventy-three-year-old George McNeilon selected his food in Value Mart very
carefully． After leaving the cashier， he estimated （估计） that he had saved 80 cents and thought that he had got good value for his money again． At the exit， the chilly wind reminded him of his gloves． \？\here and there， but nowhere could he find them． He was sure he was wearing them when he entered the store． The worried man made a second search in all his pockets， again including the grocery bag． He was sure they must have been dropped somewhere inside the store． George bought the gloves at a 25% discount， for just $30， ten years ago． They were genuine lambskin soft， warm and durable． Until then， he had worn cheaper man-made （小羊皮），
material that lasted no more than three years． His impulsive decision to buy the expensive gloves turned out to be a good one， which even promoted his social status on the bus， as passengers stared at him enviously for six months out of the year． He enjoyed being envied． Bad luck， George thought， to lose his expensive gloves on New Year's Eve． He reentered the store and followed the same route he had walked before． But several minutes of anxious search turned out to be in vain． \． People have changed …\to himself． \， if people picked up something lost， they would give it back．\ Back home， George was at a loss． In deep winter， he could not do anything without a pair of gloves． If he bought cheap ones， he would have to replace them very soon． If he bought new leather ones， they would cost forty dollars．
After the holiday， poor George decided to buy another pair of leather gloves． Before
boarding the subway， he stepped into Value Mart again to see if by any chance his gloves had been returned to the lost and found office．
\？\． \，\．
She looked into her drawer and drew out a pair of men's leather gloves． \？\
\

Twenty-five years ago， as a parent educator， I began reading about the dangers of praise． I was completely shocked by what I was learning： praise is not good for our kids． How could that be？ So I spent years talking with experts， reading about the effects of praise， and finally decided to close the door on praise and focus on building an encouraging family． Even today， with many studies available to parents， I still hear people say， \be？ How can saying ‘Good job' or ‘You're smart' be bad？\． It can be a difficult habit to break．
If we tell a boy \， how does he feel when he comes home with a D？ If we've told him that he is smart， then he will more likely feel a failure when he struggles with homework - \． Why can't I do this？\
Praise trains children to depend on constant feedback on what a \
doing． This dependency shatters rather than builds children's confidence． Praise trains children to ask， \？\？\？\begin to believe that what others think is more important than what they think about their achievements and mistakes．
Praise breaks the relationship between parents and children． Without even realizing it， parents may be using praise as a tool to direct the child's behavior． The message is clear - I approve of you when you …and I do not approve of you when you …Living with this kind of constant judgment can damage not only the child's confidence but also the relationship． The solution to the problem of praise is encouragement． Encouragement can be given at any time， to anyone， in any situation． It is a comment， an acknowledgment， a statement that
