PART 1: Thoughts
孩子成長的三階段:?
1.啟蒙關(guān)鍵期：興趣
父母：重要角色——價值觀的導(dǎo)向作用辛萍，這個階段孩子需要父母給予大量陪伴的時間谍婉，關(guān)注和鼓勵
動機：好奇心→表揚慷嗜、對自我技能的滿足感赤拒、兄弟姐妹間的競爭（不過我想這點還是需要斟酌巩割，因為中國的孩子已經(jīng)受夠了和“別人家的孩子”對比，壓力太大反而適得其反蛙婴。）
2.刻意練習(xí)首次觸電：變得認真
導(dǎo)師：刻意練習(xí)訓(xùn)練，鼓勵和表揚
父母：支持尔破，鼓勵街图，表揚浇衬，日程安排，幫助孩子創(chuàng)建心理表征——培養(yǎng)技能和養(yǎng)成習(xí)慣（長期激勵）
動機：外部→內(nèi)部（心理表征的創(chuàng)建）
3.投入
導(dǎo)師：最好的導(dǎo)師
父母：時間和費用
動機：靠自己保持
孩子的啟蒙：以前喜歡英語但一直沒機會用到餐济，也羞于開口耘擂，姐姐的寶寶出生后我就開始偷偷用英語和她交流，原本只是為了練習(xí)自己的口語絮姆，在她一歲的左右時梳星，我發(fā)覺當(dāng)我問她"where do you want to go?" "where is our home?"她都明白并且都會指出，我便更積極的練口語滚朵，也漸漸敢在家人面前和她用英語交流≡┰郑現(xiàn)在她四歲了，26個字母都認識辕近，顏色也會說韵吨，進我房間會問我"may I come in"，每次我說我要學(xué)習(xí)時移宅，她會說我也要學(xué)習(xí)归粉，要學(xué)a、 apple漏峰，我就會幫她開starfall糠悼， 她會很認真看視頻跟讀。永遠不要低估孩子的吸收能力和我們的影響浅乔，我生活的周圍人們常喜歡把學(xué)習(xí)差的責(zé)任怪在孩子和老師身上倔喂，卻不曉得大人對孩子早期的陪伴，引導(dǎo)的重要性靖苇。
成年人的學(xué)習(xí)：或許成年后的學(xué)習(xí)沒有孩童時期吸收的那么快席噩，但成年人的心理適應(yīng)能力還有抵御誘惑力往往更強，而且實際經(jīng)驗也豐富贤壁，只要我們找對方法一直堅持下去悼枢。自從在小侄女身上得到成就感后，我開始刻意的練習(xí)英語口語脾拆，嘗試了許多練習(xí)方式馒索，去年更意外的得到一個和英語有關(guān)的工作機會，我的口語也受到一些好評名船，但誰知道我以前英語有多差绰上，四級也是踩線過。就像大器晚成的摩西奶奶說的：“有人總說:已經(jīng)晚了包帚。實際上渔期，“現(xiàn)在”就是最恰當(dāng)?shù)臅r候。對一個真正有追求的人來說，生命的每個時期都是年輕的疯趟、及時的拘哨。”
PART 2: Summary
The author holds that the parents of children who are to become experts play a crucial role in the child's development.（訂：in the children's development.） For one thing, the parents shape the interests of their children. And they help their children develop mental representations. （訂：For one thing, the parents shape the interests of their children? and help them to develop mental representations.）And, again, the parents always need to give them a great deal of time, support, encouragement and money for improvements. Furthermore, a good teacher or coach is also an important role who instruct the children the why more than the how.
Although more and more older adults are training harder and harder, the adult brain is still more than capable of learning and changing. Moreover, if we adults try hard enough, our brains will find a way, just as the case of Don. We can develop our skills by constant deliberate practice.
