Passage 1
Stopping Yelling At Your Kids
Parenting is hard. If you're a parent, I'm sure that I don,t need to tell you that our jobis a tough one. When you're managing children, it can be difficult to remember that they arestill learning. If you find you are yelling at your kids more often than you want to, here aresome ways that can help you reduce the yelling. I' ve been working on this for the past fewmonths and I have to say, it' s been amazing for both the kids and me.
If you are having an argument with your child, you need to make sure you both take thetime to really Jisten. It gives both of you time to think and really listen to each other, whichis important. Kids are more likely to listen to you if you listen to them !
One of your biggest struggles is to remind yourself of appropriate expectations. Youcan't expect that your youngest acts as responsibly as your oldest. You should lower whatyou expect - taking into consideration things like their age - it can make a big difference.
You should do your best to take a moment before yelling and take in a deep breath. Itmakes a world of difference for you. Instead of yelling, you'd better whisper. It can also helpdiffuse any situation by making things quieter, not louder. Besides, the more time you spendwith your kids, the better you'11 get at communicating with them. You' re both more likelyto understand each other.
If your children aren't listening or it seems they only don't listen to you, you don'ttake it personally. You should remind yourself that your kids are still learning and they'renot going to be perfect.
21. What is the passage In_ost likely to be?
A. An announcement. B. A letter.
