A new study has discovered that meditation(冥想)and oxygen sport together reduce depression(抑郁).The Rutgers University study found that this mind and body combination done twice a week for only two months，reduced the symptoms for a group of students by 40 percent

“We are excited by the findings Because we saw such a meaningful improvement in both clinically depressed and non—depressed students，”said lead author Dr.Brandon Alderman.“It is the first time that both of these two behavioral ways have been looked at together for dealing with depression.”

Researchers believe the two activities have an interactive effect in combating depression.Alderman and Dr.Traeey Shors discovered that a combination of mental and physical training (MAP)enabled students with major depressive disorder not to let problems or negative thoughts defeat them.

Rutgers researchers say those who participated in the study began with 30 minutes of focused attention meditation followed by 30 minutes of oxygen sport.They were told that if their thoughts drifted to the past or the future they should refocus on their breathing，enabling those with depression to accept moment-to-moment changes in attention.

Shors，who studies the production of new brain cells in the hippocampus—part of the brain involved in memory and learning—says scientists have shown in animal mode1s that oxygen sport exercise keeps a large number of certain cells alive.

The idea for the human intervention(干预)came from her laboratory studies，studies，she says，the main goal of helping individuals acquire new skills so that they can learn to recover from stressful life events.

By learning to focus their attention and exercise，people who are fighting depression can acquire new learning skills that can help them process information and reduce the overwhelming recollection of memories from the past，Shors says.

“We know these treatments，can be practiced over a lifetime and that they will be effective in improving mental health.”said Alderman.“The good news is that this intervention can be practiced by anyone time any time and at no cost.”

Tips for Teaching Kids Responsibility

Your best friend has a teenager who helps with housework without being asked.Your cousin has a one-year-old child that puts her bottle in the sink when she finishes the milk，but no reminders are needed. 36 Raising helpful，good kids who know how to make a sandwich is not a fantasy! The following tips can give you a better chance of raising a responsible child who then grows into a responsible adult.

37 You can’t suddenly spring responsibility on a teenager and expect he will know how to follow through.He needs time to practice and totally understand what responsibility means.

Let kids help you.Don’t complain when it's time to do housework.Smile and invite your son to help. 38 He will take these good feelings and learn to take ownership of his home and feel pride in keeping it up.

39 Make responsibilities age-appropriate.You can show how to complete small tasks in daily life and perform them at a child’s skill level.For example，if your kid wants a snack，show him where the apples are and how to wash one off.

Teach your child consequences.Learning to take care of his things also helps a child develop a sense of responsibility for his actions.Get your son to clean up after an art project，and inform him that he won’t be able to play with his crayons the next day if he leaves a messy table.40 The more you carry out the rules，the more likely he is to clean up without being asked

A.Have a sense of responsibility.

B.Why do they make a sandwich for kids?

C.Show kids how to perform responsibility.

D.Where do these wonderful children come from?

E.Teaching responsibility to kids needs to start early.
