In a survey of 1,001 U.S. adults released last fall by Braun Research, 82% reported having regular chores growing up, but only 28% said that they require their own children to do them.

“Parents today want their kids to spend time on things that can bring them success, but ironically, we’ve stopped doing one thing that’s actually been a proven predictor of success—and that’s household chores,” says Richard Rende, a developmental psychologist in Paradise Valley, Ariz., and co-author of the forthcoming book Raising Can-Do Kids. Decades of studies show the benefits of chores—academically, emotionally and even professionally.

Giving children household chores at an early age helps to build a lasting sense of mastery, responsibility and self-reliance, according to research by Marty Rossmann,retired professor at the University of Minnesota.

Chores also teach children how to be empathetic and responsive to others’ needs, notes psychologist Richard Weissbourd of the Harvard Graduate School of Education. In research, he and his team surveyed 10,000 middle- and high-school students and asked them to rank what they valued more: achievement, happiness or caring for others.

Almost 80% chose either achievement or happiness over caring for others. As he points out, however, research suggests that personal happiness comes most reliably not from high achievement but from strong relationships. “We’re out of balance,” says Dr. Weissbourd. A good way to start readjusting priorities, he suggests, is by learning to be kind and helpful at home.

The next time that your child asks to skip chores to do homework, resist the urge to let him or her off the hook, says psychologist Madeline Levine.

Here are some of the best ways to get your children properly motivated to do chores:

★ Watch your language. In a study of 149 3-to-6-year-olds in the journal Child

Development, researchers found that thanking young children for “being a helper”, as opposed to “helping”, significantly increased their desire to pitch in. They were motivated by the idea of creating a positive identity-being known as someone who helps.

★ Schedule chore time. Write chores into the calendar, right next to the piano lesson and soccer practice, to maintain consistency.

★ Keep allowances and chores separate. Research suggests that external rewards can actually lower intrinsic(内在的) motivation and performance. With chores, psychologists say that money can lessen a child’s motivation to help, turning an altruistic(无私的) act into a business transaction.

★ Types of tasks matter. To build prosocial behavior like empathy, chores should be routine and focused on taking care of the family (like dusting the living room or doing everyone’s laundry), not self-care (tidying one’s bedroom or doing personal laundry). Psychologists add that involving children in choosing the tasks makes them more likely to buy in.

★ Give chores a PR boost. Don’t tie chores to punishments. Keep any talk about chores, including your own, positive or at least neutral. If you complain about doing the dishes, so will your children.

阅读下面的短文,然后按要求写一篇150词左右的英语短文。

The government of Shenzhen sent shockwaves through the e-commerce world when, late last month, it started carrying out the strictest rules against electric bicycles and tricycles without license in the country.

The rules stated that all electric bicycles and tricycles without license, especially those used in commercial activities such as goods delivery or passenger transportation, would be taken off the road within 100 days, starting on March 21. Thousands of vehicles have been seized, and hundreds of owners have been fined, according to media reports. The measures met with criticism throughout the country, with many consumers worried that the rules would hit the e-commerce industry hard. There were also concerns that Shenzhen’s laws would inspire similar measures across the nation, making online shopping more expensive and less convenient for millions of online shoppers.

Shenzhen authorities have clarified that the new rules were not aimed at the e-commerce industry in particular. Rather, they say their goal was primarily to improve road safety. Drivers of electric vehicles, especially couriers(快递员), often ignore traffic rules by exceeding speed limits and using unauthorized lanes. Shenzhen officials say these drivers give great danger to themselves and the public.
