problem.The humanresource department at the company that paid me was unable to help as I didnt have enough details.I rang the bank again.Thankfully I had sympathetic call operator who gave me a name，so I again rang the company “Daniel” worked for.I expected the bank would contact me to arrange to take the money from my account and repay Daniel.I heard nothing for a month and the money remained in my account when Daniel called，explaining hed tried to get back his money but had been unsuccessful as neither the bank nor his company felt it was their error.He had rung to ask if I could

Yale Law School，states her childbringingup method learned from her parents moving here from China years ago：no sleepovers，no television，no grades lower than an A.“We guessed her book would cause much disagreement，” Wang Feifei，editor at CITIC Publishing House，told the reporter.“We dont take it as a traditional parenting book，largely because it involves crosscultural conflict.” The book has been available online since MidJanuary and ranked No.80 in sales on J，a Chinese version of Amazon.It is to receive wider distribution(发行) at bookstores after the Feb.3 Chinese New Year holiday.The book has struck a nerve with Americans，especially American mothers.An article published earlier this month in the Wall Street Journal，called Why Chinese Mothers are Better，lit a strong reaction(The article now has close to 8,000 comments and most of them are critical，many of them completely unfriendly)And thats just what she did on Tuesday nights show “The Colbert Report”The host Stephen Colbert put Chua on the spot.“People have accused you of saying that the Chinese way of raising a child is better to what Western mothers do.True or false？” he asked.“Uh.false，” Chua replied，her voice uncertain.Colbert seized the opportunity to point out Chuas inconsistency(不一致)“So you raised your children in a worse way？” Chua made a set of defensive talking points，some of them more convincing than others.Her arguments in defense of strict parenting were “I think if you give a 5 or 8yearold free choice，I think thats going to be video games.” Chua thinks that anyone can be what she calls a “Chinese Mother”；all you have to do is to demand hard work，determination and discipline from your children.“I think they are fundamental American values.”11What is Amy Chuas method of bringing up her children
