Once in a television interview, I was chatting with the host about stay – at – home athers. I made the point that one reason why we’re seeing more stay – at – homw dads may be hat it’s no longer definite that a man makes more money than his wife. Many families now ake earning power into account when deciding which parent will stay home.

At that point, one of the male crew members pointed out, almost to himself but loud nough for my benefit, “It should be the better parent who stays home.” A lot of guys say hings like that. Usually it’s a code for “My wife, or any woman is the better parent.”

I was a stay – at – home father for 8 years, so his words made me excited. It implied that our family’s choice could only have been correct if I was a “better” parent than my wife.

I suppose an argument could have been made that when I began staying home my wife was the “better” parent if she spent more time with Jack. She would be able to read him wetter and calm him more quickly. But as the more employable one, my wife went out to work and I looked after our son.

Because of the increased time I spent with Jack. I soon knew him well, understood that he needed and could look after him more or less as well as my wife could. Actually, he experience helped me unlock one of the world’s great secrets; Women are good at booking after children because they do it. It is not because of any innate (先天的) female talent. It is because they put in the time and attention required to become good at the job.

Woman obviously get a biological head starting from giving birth and nursing, but ever the long term experience is more important. When I got the experience myself. I was people are able to look after them as well besides their moms.

One year, my school report made my parents angry. On Christmas Eve, all the presents were stolen, along with our TV. My parents told me that there were no presents because Santa was very angry with my behavior over the past year. The next year on Christmas Eve I slept downstairs with a plastic sword waiting for Santa to make sure that he didn't steal the new TV. The next morning, when I woke up, I saw Santa standing there. As soon as I saw that there were no presents, I grabbed my plastic sword and ran at him, shouting angrily: "THIEF! THIEF!"

Jack

When I was young, we always had a specific room for the Christmas tree. My mom never really liked the location, so one year she moved the tree into another room. I was convinced that Santa would not know where the tree was and would get lost in our house. I was worried that he would be mad and put me on the "bad" list and would not give me any gifts because he couldn't find the tree. I came up with the idea to make signs leading from the fireplace to the tree. They said things like: "Tree this way" or "Santa, put the gifts over here." When my big brother saw them he began to laugh his head off.

Lucy

Does everyone remember going to the mall and sitting on Santa’s lap to have his picture taken at Christmas time?

Well, I used to think that if I did that, Santa would get mad bcause he would have to go all around the world and give every kid the chance to have his picture taken with him. Of course his lap would hurt and he would be very fired. I thought he might keep a copy of the picture and that would be how he decided who would be on his naughty list.

My mom couldn't get me onto Santa's lap until she made him promise I wouldn't end up on his naughty list.

Lydia

1.The real reason why Jack's TV was taken away is that ______________.

A.his parents were too careless

B.his parents thought he had watched too much TV

C.Santa Claus was not satisfied with Jack’s behavior

D.Santa gave the TV to another child as a present

2.Which of the following is NOT one of the reasons why Lucy didn't want the tree to be moved?

A.Santa would not know where the tree was.

B.Santa would be angry and would not give her any gifts.

C.Her big brother might laugh at her.

D.Santa might think she was a "bad" child.

3.We can learn from the third story that _______________.

A.Lydia’s mother was very Strict with her

B.Lydia believed in Santa when she was young

C.Lydia was naughty when she was young

D.Lydia liked taking pictures with Santa

4.Why didn't Lydia want to take pictures with Santa?

A.She was afraid that Santa would get mad with her.
