There was one area in which men scored higher than women, though, and that was on emotional stability and ability to face jobrelated pressure and stress. The results suggest that women are more sensitive to the effects of highpressure or highly emotional situations. Obviously，it39。s important to consider individual(個人的) differences.

Fathers and mothers frequently teach their children both ambition and the confidence necessary to work toward their goals. American parents are always active in concentrating on what their kids can do, not what they can39。t. As a result, millions of American boys and girls grow up hoping to bee actors and athletes, diplomats and doctors. Many of them even want to bee president. American parents often encourage their children to bee involved in extra activities of all types at school, such as student government, sports and music. They believe that only through taking part in these activities can their children bee mature young adults. As we all know, school work is important. But parents should realize that the social skills their children learn from natural conversations with each other are as important as schoolwork and the skills they will need in the future work. What39。s more important in their work is that their children should have a sound knowledge of physics or the ability to municate effectively. As a rule, Chinese parents don39。t educate their children about the same kind of ambition and confidence as Americans do, nor do they encourage the same level of participation in extra activities. Children are typically advised to study hard and pass exams. They have to spend a lot of time in doing much schoolwork every day. It is a great waste of time to do so. Now more and more Chinese parents have recognized that they should pay attention to developing the potential of their children. I hope that leaders in Chinese educational circles should take some measures to develop the potential of their children. I am very confident about it.（1）From the passage, we know the American parents pay much more attention to .
