　　Many people believe that classical music is not relevant to young people today.However,this issue(问题) frequently causes heated debate.

　　Some people say that classical music is associated only with old people.For example,if you look at the audience at a classical concert,the majority is over the age of fifty.

　　Others say it is more popular than we first imagine.Many young people listen to classical music without realising.It is often used in films and advertisements.For example,a famous piece of classical music was used as the theme music for the 1990 World Cup.Not many people could have given its name,but millions enjoyed it.

　　Also,some people point out that young people produce new music based on classical ideas:for example,it is said that rap(说唱) music was invented by a classical musician in 1912,but it is now used by young people in pop music.

　　However,young people point to the fact that classical music has been outstripped(超越) by technology.To play a classical instrument,such as a violin,you need to study hard and practise for hours.Nowadays,you don’t need to get aching arms from practising.A teenager can write and make music using a computer program in the comfort of their own bedroom.

　　A final point to bear in mind is that the term “classical music” is used to refer to a great variety of music,from jazz to pieces for large orchestras(管弦乐队).This makes it even more difficult to say whether classical music is relevant to young people.

　　So,it may be only a minority of young people who play classical instruments,but when it comes to enjoying classical music,it depends on the piece of music.It may be more relevant to young people in the modern world than they realise!

　　Hugging is an extremely positive form of communication.It expresses the values of love,approval,gratitude and forgiveness.Research shows that hugs have more positive effects on children and adults than just some encouraging words and a smiling face.Giving our child a hug on various occasions can make a world of difference in our young learners’ lives.

　　On the first day of school,giving a hug coupled with a few calming breaths just might help your little learner overcome “The First Day Fears”.By the way,giving hugs for the first full week wouldn’t hurt either.Hugs are relatively inexpensive and apparently very healthy.

　　It’s the day of the class play and your kid is not so confident about saying a few words as a wild turkey in front of an audience.Giving a hug coupled with a few encouraging words just might help them feel more confident.

　　Usually,bedtime is the most frightening time of the day for most kids,who feel very stressed and may stay up.Giving a tight hug coupled with reading their favorite story or singing their favorite song may help them have a good sleep.

　　Besides,according to Intelligence Quotient Development in Children on eHow.com,“A caring yet inspiring environment is always helpful in promoting a child’s language skills.Make sure your child gets plenty of hugs and kisses and hears positive and encouraging words from you.”

　　Sometimes we get caught up in teaching,parenting,providing,and protecting our children so that we forget to hug them.If there’s one thing your child or student may need from you to help adapt their behavior or improve their IQ,it may just be something as simple as a hug.

　　A positive hug could change the course of the day for you both when you least expect it.So remember to hug your children often and put emotion behind it and really mean it!

　　When you’re studying,the list of distractions (使人分心的事物) seems endless.However,you can deal with them successfully by following some practical (实用的) strategies mentioned below.

　　Study at a place,where you feel most comfortable.For most people,home is the best place,but if there are too many people at your home,go elsewhere.Libraries are a good place to study;you can use the study room that they have.

　　★Put away anything in your study place that you do not need while studying.Seeing things like a book or a photograph may distract you.Want to watch your favorite show?If so,keep the TV away.Put your cell phone on silent and preferably out of sight.
