问题: Is it good to reward children too often? Why?
思路 1
No, it’s not good to reward children too often
不，经常奖励孩子并不好
考官答案
I don’t think it’s good to reward children too often. If kids get a prize every time they do something, they will start to expect it and might not want to do anything unless there’s a reward. This can make rewards less special and children might not learn to be responsible or work hard on their own. For example, if a child always gets candy for finishing homework, they might refuse to study if there’s no candy.
我认为不宜过于频繁地奖励孩子。如果孩子每次做了什么事情都能得到奖品，他们会开始期待这些奖励，可能只在有奖励的情况下才愿意去做事情。这会使奖励变得不那么特别，孩子们也可能学不到自律或自主努力的重要性。例如，如果孩子每次完成作业都能得到糖果，可能在没有糖果的情况下拒绝学习。
思路 2
Sometimes, but with limits
有时，但有限制
考官答案
I think it’s okay to reward children sometimes, but not all the time. Giving a reward once in a while can make kids feel happy and encourage them to do better. But if they get rewards for everything, it’s not special anymore. It’s better to give rewards for big achievements, like getting good grades or helping someone, instead of for everyday things.
我认为有时候奖励孩子是可以的，但不能一直都奖励。偶尔给予奖励可以让孩子感到开心，激励他们做得更好。但如果什么事情都奖励，奖励就不再特别了。最好是对重大成就给予奖励，比如取得好成绩或帮助别人，而不是对日常的小事。
思路 3
Yes, but use non-material rewards
是的，但使用非物质奖励。
考官答案
Yes, but I think it’s better to use non-material rewards. Saying “good job” or giving extra playtime can make children feel proud and happy. These kinds of rewards help kids learn to value effort and good behavior, not just things like toys or candy. For example, a sticker or a compliment can be enough for young children.
是的，但我认为使用非物质奖励更好。说“干得好”或给予额外的玩耍时间可以让孩子感到自豪和快乐。这些类型的奖励帮助孩子学会重视努力和良好的行为，而不仅仅是玩具或糖果。例如，一张贴纸或一句赞美对年幼的孩子来说就足够了。
