In one of my favorite photographs of my mother,she's about 18 and very tan,withlong,blond 's the 1970s
and my dad is there,too,hugging her from behind.
I haven't seen this photo for years.I have no idea where it is now,but I still think ofit-and,specifically,my mom is
in

looks
so
young
and

that
time
shehasn't

this
photo
has
noidea
that
life
will
bring
her
five
children
and
five
grandchildren,one
divorce,two
marriagesand a move across the country.
For me,as for many daughters,the time before my mother became a mother is astring of stories,told and retold:the
time she sold her childhood Barbie doll to buy a ticketto Woodstock;the time she worked as a waitress at Howard
Johnson's,struggling
to
payher
way
through
her
first
year
at

old
photos
of
her
are
even
more
appealingthan the stories because they're a historical record,carrying the weight of fact.
It is always a comfort from those photos to know that time,aging and motherhoodcannot take away a woman's
essential daughters who closely resemble theirmoms,it must be an even bigger comfort:these mothers and
daughters are twins,separated by a generation,and an old photo serves as a kind of mirror.
For daughters,these old photos of our mothers feel like both a chasm(
巨大差异）
anda woman in the
picture
is
someone
other
than
the
woman

alsoexactly
the
person
in

She's been here all this time.
can we know about the author's mother from paragraphs 2&.3?
divorced twice all her life.
was tough for her during her first year at college.
traveled across the country in her youth.
was good at storytelling.

does the author find the photo of her mother appealing?
photo reminds her of her mother.
mother looks young and happy in the photo.
wonders why her mother dropped out of college.
photo tells a lot about her mother in her youth.
photos of mothers bring comfort to their daughters because
photos are kept well even after generations
photos record the life of the mothers faithfully
photos help daughters to learn more about their mothers
photos show the essential part of the mothers remains unchanged

Having
an
older
brother
comes
with
plenty
of

brothers
tend
to
look
outfor
their
younger
siblings(
兄弟姐妹），
and
despite
the
occasional
rocky
moment
here
andthere,many
siblings
enjoy
life- long
close
r,a
new
study
finds
aninteresting
downside:children
with
older
brothers
take
longer
when
it
comes to developinglanguage skills.
The
study,conducted
by
a
group
of
researchers
in
Paris,France,builds
upon
earlierresearch
that
had
already
established that having older siblings is associated with poorlinguistic(
语言的）
,researchers say they
have come to a more specificconclusion:only children with an older brother exhibit these linguistic difficulties.
One
would
assume
that
children
with
older
brothers
would
grow
up
around
moreconversation
on
a
dailybasis,thus
speeding
up
their
language
earchers
say
such
children
actually
take
longer
than
their older brothers to begindeveloping these skills.
Researchers
studied
more
than
1,000
children
from
birth
to
the
age
of
five-and-a-halfyears

child's
language skills were tested at ages 2,3,and 5.5,using testsspecially designed to measure numerous aspects of language
development such asvocabulary,syntax,and verbal reasoning.
What
the
research
team
discovered
was
significant:children
with
an
older
brotherhad,on
average,a
two-month
delay in their language development compared to those withan older sister.

As far as explaining this phenomenon,researchers have proposed two hypotheses(
假设）。
The first is that older
sisters tend to talk more often than older brothers,which wouldcompensate for parents potentially being less present
than they were for their first second hypothesis is that older sisters usually compete with their siblings less
thanolder brothers for their parents' attention.
As of now,the study's authors say they can't say for certain why children with olderbrothers have a harder time
developing language the future they would like toinvestigate if culture or location affects the results of these
studies.

Hygge has focused largely on the idea of making the ordinary special,or meaningful,through ritualising(
使仪式
化）
everyday activities such as making a cup of coffee or havingdinner;that means putting technology to one side,and
adopting simple practices such aslighting candles,purchasing flowers,or making real tea in china cups.
