2.Romeo and Juliet was probably written in 1595, when Shakespeare was a young successfulplaywright. He had already written comedies and history plays, but had not yet developed his shill in tragedy.The power of fate is strong to Shakespeare’s play. Chance and evil eventually join to bring tragedy.Chance involves Romeo in a murder, chance prevents a message from reaching Romeo in time, chance brings about a deadly meeting in a cemetery.Many Elizabethans were followers of astrology(星相术) and believed that the stars could control events. Thus, Romeo and Juliet art referred to as” star-crossed lovers” whose stars doomed(命中注定)them to disaster.Elizabethans also had a concept of fate in the person of Dame Fortune (命运女神). By spinning her wheel, she could raise the state of a beggar or a lower that of a king. One of the fascinations of Shakespeare is the way in which he put these ideas into the play.One of the most difficult things to decide about this play is the question of responsibility. Didirresistible fate bring tragedy to Romeo and Juliet, or were they themselves to blame? The fact that this question is not resolved by the author also helps to make Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet a fascinating work.What is unresolved about this play is ____.

There's a time to get angry,and it's best for your child if you do.Let's say your childhit a playmate with a toy-hard enough to make the other child cry.How can you teachyour child to feel sorry so he or she won't do it again?Researchers say the best way forParents to react(反应）is to show their anger and to let the child know exactly why theyare mad.

When your young child does something wrong,scold him or her seriously at once.Atthe same time be sure to tell the child clearly what he or she has done wrong.An angry reaction without an immediate explanation does little good,Forbidding a child to play outsideor not allowing him to watch TVas a punishment works well-but only when taken together with an explanation,Make certain your child understands that although his or herwrongdoing has made you angry,you still love him or her.Use simple,direct words suchas,"You hurt Peter.How would you feel if he hit you?You must never,never hurt people."If your voice expresses strong feelings clearly,your message will carry enoughweight.
