Jane Austen(1775-1817),an English novelist,started writing young and completed six novels in her life.Today Austen's books are more popular than ever.In the last 10 years,five of her six novels have been made into Hollywood films,while her books continue to be best-sellers.
Richard Jenkyns,a professor of English at Oxford University,says that her novels are about marriage,friendships and the family,which are still with us today.“The stories are timeless,”Jenkyns said.
Pride and Prejudice(偏见)(1813)is Austen's most famous work.It is a love story about Elizabeth Bennet and Mr Darcy.At first,these two dislike each other.Elizabeth is pretty,smart and lively.She is proud because Darcy doesn't know about her and her family.Mr Darcy is handsome,,rich and has a better family background.So,he is proud as well.At the same time,Darcy holds prejudice against the Bennet family.He has no understanding of why the family,especially its mother and daughters should try so hard to find wealthy and powerful husbands.He thinks they are vulgar.Anyway,Elizabeth and Darcy finally fall in love and become a romantic couple but their families don't want them to.
In Pride and Prejudice,some of the main things that Jane Austen wants to teach people are as follows:Opposites can attract each other.Lovers should not only make each other feel relaxed or comfortable,but also educate and improve each other.
Austen is often called the greatest romantic writer,so it is surprising she remained unmarried. "Maybe she was too romantic,waiting for the perfect man,"Jenkyns says.
( )1.From Paragraph 1 and Paragraph 2,we can know

How Can We Motivate Children to Succeed
Children are naturally curious about something.but making them study something they aren’t interested in can be a difficult task.Teachers and parents often give rewards in the form of stars or punish their children sometimes.But what if rewards and threats aren't the answer
Natural curiosity is sometimes referred to as"intrinsic motivation"(内在动机).Studies have found that children who see learning as fun and important are better at it,And it's easy to understand why—it's difficult to study something we aren't interested in and if we're passionate about h.information we're learning or understanding, it may make us feel more meaningful.
Extrinsic motivation(外在动机) things like rewards and punishment,does have its uses too. Stimulation based on good grades or fear of punishment has been acknowledged to motivate older students.However,it seems that at an early age, it doesn't have as much effect.So,if it's the case that natural curiosity is motivation for better learning, how can we stimulate that interest
According to some experts,the key is to allow some degree of freedom.Let the child see their learning as their free mind.If you want to teach a child to read, let them choose which book they use, such as a graphic novel,TV guide or classic literature.Likewise, build a relationship with them as learners—listen to their negative feelings.Explain why an activity is valuable,even if it isn't exactly fun.So it seems that the key to motivating children,especially the young ones,might come from stimulating that intrinsic motivation.Maybe it's time to unleash them from the reigns of threats and rewards,and give them a bit more choice of how they learn.
1.What can be a difficult task for children
2.Who is better at learning
3.What has been acknowledged to motivate older students
4.What is the key to motivating children from
5.If you are parents,which way will you take to motivate children

According to their paper published in Science Advances,grains(谷物)and yeast(酵母)were found on the base of the paintings.Beer was the most common d__3__in the 19th century in Denmark,and its by-products(副产品)were spent grains and yeast.
The study showed that they were used to p__4__a stable painting surface.Researchers also pointed out that beer by-product was used as a"glue"because it had a lot of sugar.With beer added,the paint can also d__5__faster.
Apart from beer,eggs have long been found in oil-based paints used by artists in the 15th century,such as Italian painter Leonardo da Vinci.A recent study published in Nature Communications may have found the s__6__of how eggs can help keep artworks in safety.

However,the oil paint with added egg usually takes 1__9__to dry.It seemed fine for artists—they were willing to accept to have their work well-kept for longer.The more we understand how a__10__choose and use their materials,the more we can"appreciate What they're doing",Ken Sutherland,an expert at the Art Institute of Chicago,US,told Science News.Sutherland added that research like this could help people have a deeper understanding of the artworks.
