Sylvester is keeping track of the distortions, and he already has quite a long list. He says that all housewives seem to live in lovely homes, dress beautifully, and love their household chores. They smile and boast about floor waxes and proudly display their dirty laundry, dusty tabletops, and filthy ovens. In addition, he has never seen men doing housework. Sylvester thinks that this view of family life is filled with distortions.I am keeping track of the people who appear in the advertisements. I have found handsome men courting the All-American Girl, and they are always recommending brand X toothpaste or brand Y cologne. I see teenagers and children surrounded by their friends, having wonderful times at parties and at school, and they are usually enjoying large harmonious family gatherings. I think that these advertisements are also filled with fantasy.Sylvester and I have concluded that much of American life is pictured unrealistically in commercials. Teenagers do not always have fun at parties, and very few people love doing chores. People do have problems, but few of these are ever shown in commercials. Instead, we watch Cinderella (灰姑娘) discover a miracle floor wax, finish the kitchen chores, and waltz off to the ball. Our heads are filled with these fantasies, and they also suggest that, for any problem, brand Z will provide the instant cure. Sylvester and I will have very few facts and a lot of fantasy to write about in our research reports.

Amazingly，though so many people regret the rising dropout rate，our schools continue to lack formal plans—or any plans—about students’ motivation.Most schools have no game plans to ensure that students understand that school will be completely necessary.Schools expect the children to act as the school is important，but they never teach them to believe that.
Years ago，families ensured that the offspring recognized the value of school.But in many modern families，the children may fail to recognize the importance of school life just because these families may actually tell the children that school is not important.Since many families are not motivating their children to be interested students，young professionals，like teachers，may need to provide this training.Otherwise，it is likely that the dropout rate will continue to not drop，but only worsen.
Here are some strategies to convince even the most apathetic students that they must stay in school.
Ask students if they will ever need to work：The world has changed.100 years ago，factory work was the booming job，and it required no education.Today，factories are increasingly automated.Most computerrelated jobs require education and at least a high school diploma.
Ask students which century they will be prepared for：In 1900，the most common jobs were farm laborer and domestic servant—education not needed.Now，the most common jobs are office and sales worker—education and diploma usually needed.6 out of 10 people today work in a store or an office.
Ask students to devise a way that the employee could be replaced.For example，the coming trend in fast food is to use computers rather than people to run the restaurant.A prototype is apparently already being tested.The students should discover that most jobs that lack education and diploma requirements will be ripe for automation.
