Tday，when dubts clud my mind，I think f Appa's sharpened pencil.Its purpse may have been t slve a crsswrd.A crsswrd is cmplete — and gives ne jy — with nly s many wrds，and nly when each wrd rests n elements frm the thers.Culdn't my wrds hld a duality （双重性） that cmpletes my purpse t？And s，nw I take up assignments，sme that pay well，sme that dn't，but tgether，and mst imprtantly，they fill me with jy.After all，it is nly ur heartfelt passin that matters.

The practice f paying children an allwance became ppular in America abut 100 years ag.Nwadays，American kids n average receive abut ＄ 800 per year in allwance.But the vast majrity f American parents wh pay allwance tie it t the cmpletin f husewrk.Althugh many parents believe that paying an allwance fr cmpleting chres（家务活）benefits their children，a range f experts expressed cncern that tying allwance very clsely t chres may nt be ideal.In fact，the way chres wrk in many husehlds wrldwide pints t anther way.
Suniya Luthar，a psychlgist，is against paying kids fr chres.Luthar is nt ppsed t giving allwances，but she thinks it's imprtant t establish that chres are dne nt because they will lead t payment，but because they keep the husehld running.Luthar's suggested apprach t allwance agrees with that f writer Rn Lieber，wh advises that allwances be used as a means f shwing children hw t save，give，and spend n things they care abut.Kids shuld d chres，he writes，"fr the same reasn adults d，because the chres need t be dne，and nt with the expectatin f cmpensatin."
This argument has its critics，but cnsidering the way chres are undertaken arund the wrld may change peple's thinking.Prfessr David Lancy f Utah State University has studied hw families arund the wrld handle chres.At abut 18 mnths f age，Lancy says，mst children becme eager t help their parents，and in many cultures，they begin helping with husewrk at that age.They begin with very simple tasks，but their respnsibilities gradually increase.And they d these tasks withut payment.Lancy cntrasts this with what happens in America."We deny ur children's bids t help until they are 6 r 7 years ld，"Lancy says，"when many have lst the desire t help and then try t mtivate them with payment.The slutin t this prblem is nt t try t use mney as a mtive fr ding husewrk，but t get children invlved in husewrk much earlier，when they actually want t d it."
12.What d sme experts think abut paying children fr ding chres？ ______
A. It may nt be the best thing t d.
B. It may nt help cmplete hmewrk.
C. It may benefit children in the lng term.
D. It may help children engage mre in labr.
13.Accrding t Rn Lieber，parents shuld give children allwances t ______ .

14.What des David Laney say abut 18-mnth-lds？ ______
A. They shuld learn t take family respnsibilities.
B. They are t yung t request mney fr what they d.
C. They have a natural tendency t help arund the huse.
D. They need a little supprt t get invlved in husewrk.
15.What des David Laney advise American parents t d？ ______

Researchers fund that they culd accurately （准确地） predict hw clse tw peple were based nly n their brain activity in respnse t a series f unfamiliar vide clips.Put simply：Yu and yur best friends really d think alike.Accrding t a Dartmuth study finding，friends have similar neural （神经的） respnses t real-wrld stimuli （刺激） and these similarities can be used t predict wh yur friends are.The study reveals that friends have the mst similar neural activity patterns，fllwed by friends-f-friends wh，in turn，have mre similar neural activity than peple three degrees remved （friends-f-friends-f-friends）.
Published in Nature Cmmunicatins，the study is the first f its kind t examine the cnnectins between the neural reactin f peple within a real-wrld scial netwrk."Neural respnses t active，naturalistic stimuli，like vides，can give us a windw int peple's unlimited，unplanned thught prcesses as they unfld.Our results suggest that friends prcess the wrld arund them in exceptinally similar ways，"says lead authr Carlyn Parkinsn.
The study analyzed the friendships r scial ties within a grup f 280 graduate students.The researchers estimated the scial distance between pairs f individuals based n mutually （相互地） reprted scial ties.Frty-tw f the students were asked t watch a range f vides while their neural activity was recrded in a functinal magnetic resnance imaging （fMRI） scanner.The vides cvered a range f tpics and genres，including plitics，science，cmedy and music vides，fr which a range f respnses was expected.Each participant watched the same vides in the same rder，with the same instructins.The researchers then cmpared the neural respnses in pairs acrss the set f students t determine if pairs f students wh were friends had mre similar brain activity than pairs further remved frm each ther in their scial netwrk.
The findings revealed that neural respnse similarity was strngest amng friends，and this pattern appeared acrss brain regins invlved in emtinal respnding and high-level reasning.Even when the researchers cntrlled variables（变量），including left-handedness r right-handedness，age，gender，race，and natinality，the analgy （类比） in neural activity amng friends was still evident.The team als fund that fMRI respnse similarities culd be used t predict nt nly if a pair were friends but als the scial distance between the tw.
