After an earthquake or any similar disaster, parents and teachers need to help children overcome the effects of this frightening and sometimes devastating （ 毀滅性的） experience. Psychologists （心理學(xué)家）say that if children go through a disturbing event before the age of ten, they are three times as likely to suffer psychological problems as teenagers. After a disaster children may become easily upset, shy, aggressive , or afraid of wind, rain, noises, or darkness. They may have trouble letting go of their parents and resist going to school or daycare. Some children may even feel guilty thinking that they somehow caused the disaster through their bad behavior.  Because of such common reactions, parents and others should begin as soon after the event as possible helping these children. 
Some suggestions include talking to the children about what happened, letting the children express their own feelings, spending extra time with them doing activities together and reassuring （使放心）them that you love them and won't leave them. For some children expressing themselves through drawing pictures or writing can be useful. Do everything possible to help children get back to a normal routine; however, don't be afraid to "spoil" these children for a while after the disaster.  Let them have extra privileges （特權(quán)）and more attention than usual.  Encourage the children to grieve （悲痛）after a loss. It should be OK for them to cry. Caring families and friends can do much to heal children victims of disasters.

[1]Freezing weather can mean frostbite(凍傷)and hypothermia(體溫過低)unless a person is prepared. Today we talk about how to stay warm，dry and safe．

[2]Frostbite is damage that happens when skin is exposed to extreme cold for too long．It mainly happens on the hands，feet，nose and ears．If deeper tissue is affected, a person is likely to feel pain every time the area gets cold．Hypothermia is a condition that develops when the body cannot produce as much heat as it：releases．Signs of hypothermia include uncontrollable shaking，very slow breathing and difficulty thinking clearly．

[3] To avoid cold-related injuries，here is a simple way to remember four basic steps to staying warm．Think of COLD—C．O．L．D．

[4]The C stands for cover．Wear a hat and scarf to keep heat from escaping through the head，neck and ears．And wear mittens(連指手套)instead of gloves．

[5]The O stands for overexertion(用力過度)．Avoid activities that will make you sweaty．Wet clothes and cold weather are a dangerous combination．

[6] L is for layers．Wearing loose，lightweight clothes，one layer on top of another，is better than wearing a single heavy layer of clothing.

[7]D is for dry．In other words，stay as dry as possible．Pay attention to the places where snow can enter clothing．These include the tops of boots，the necks of coats and the wrist areas of mittens or gloves．

[8] And here are two other things to keep in mind-one for children and    ．Eating snow might be fun but it lowers the body’s temperature．And drinking alcohol might make a person feel warm．But what it really does is weaken the body’s ability to hold heat．

Leeds, England--A Leeds University psychology(心理學(xué)) professor is teaching a course to help dozens of Britons forgive their enemies.

“The hatred(痛恨) we hold within us is a cancer,” Professor Ken Hart said, adding that holding in anger can lead to problems such as high blood pressure and heart disease.

      More than 70 people have become members in Hart’s first 20-week workshop in London ---a course he says is the first of its kind in the world.

     These are people who are sick and tired of living with the memory. “They realize their bitterness(痛楚) is a poison they think they can pour out, but they end up drinking it themselves, ” said Canadian-born Hart.

The students meet in groups of eight to ten for a two-hour workshop with a visit to an adviser every fortnight.

The course, ending in July, is expected to get rid of the cancer of hate in these people. “People have lots of negative(否定) attitudes(態(tài)度) towards forgiveness,” he said. “People confuse(使混亂) forgiveness with forgetting. Forgiveness means changing from a negative attitude to a positive one.”

Hart and his team have created instructions to provide the training needed.

“The main idea is to give you guidelines on how to look at various angers and how they affect you, and how to change your attitude toward the person you are angry with,” said Norman Claring-bull, a senior expert on the forgiveness project.

Hart said he believes forgiveness is a skill that can be taught, as these people “want to get free from the past”.

A. persuade us to go to Hart’s workshop
