Respect can mean different things to different people. But basically, respect means showing regard or consideration for someone or something. It is important to recognize the difference between respect and obedience (顺从). 　　16　　 　However, when a child understands that your rules will finally do his good, he will obey you because he respects you.

The best way to teach your child about respect is for you to show respect to yourself, your child, and others. 　　17　　 　Observing respectable adults’ behavior helps your child learn the value of respect and how to use it.

As your child enters the teen years, it can be extremely difficult to show respect and set up boundaries (界限) with your child when he or she is being disrespectful to you. It’s important, though challenging, not to stoop (屈尊) to their level. 　　18　　

Keep in mind that schools may teach children about respect. 　　19　　 　If you are caught saying unpleasant things about the opposing team during a soccer game or screaming bad words at the people who just cut you off, your child will take this as a cue (暗示) that it’s okay to be disrespectful to your peers.

　　 20　　 　Truly listen to them when they have something to say. Let them know that their words and feelings are important to you. Help them learn to appreciate and take care of their things by respecting their personal property. Respect their freedom by knocking before entering their room and ask that they do the same. Remember that you are their role model.

Droughts (干旱) are a common feature of the weather in the UK, with one around every 5 to 10 years on average. After 18 months since the drought began to hit the UK, most of the east and south-east of England is affected by drought. Luckily, a new water plant in Beckton, East London, is helping to ease the drought by turning seawater into drinking water.

The £270-million plant uses a process (过程) called desalination, through which salt and other minerals are taken out of seawater. The plant takes seawater from the Thames Estuary when the sea is at low tide, filters (过滤) it and then pumps it through a membrane (薄膜) with lots of little holes in it. The process makes the water so clean that essential minerals have to be put back into it. Around 150 million liters of water will be produced in this way each day, supplying 1.4 million people with water.

With summer drawing near, the project has been developed to help the widespread drought across the UK. Seven water companies have announced the limited use of water, and hosepipe (水龙带) bans are likely to be announced next month. The ban could affect one in three homes and people caught breaking the rules could face a fine of up to £1,000.

As the desalination process is expensive to run and uses a lot of energy, it will only be used in times of drought. Martin Baggs, chief executive of Thames Water, said that more money is needed to help build reservoirs (水库) and develop new technology. He added, “People must use less water during extreme conditions.”
