Read the passage and choose the best answer. Most educational specialists believe that early schooling should provide children with an awareness of their own abilities and the self-confidence to use their abilities. One approach recognised by many experts as promoting these qualities is the Montessori method, first practised by Maria Montessori of Italy in the early 1900s, Nancy McCormick Rambusch is credited with popularising the method in the United States, where today there are over 400 Montessori, schools. The method helps children learn for themselves by providing them with instructional materials and tasks 'that facilitate acts of discovery and manipulation. Through such exploration, children develop their sense of touch and learn how to do everyday tasks without adult assistance.

People commonly complain that they never have enough time to accomplish tasks. The hours and minutes seem to slip away before many planned chores get done. According to time management experts, the main reason for this is that most people fail to set priorities about what to do first. They get tied dow n by trivial, time-consuming matters and never complete the important ones. One simple solution often used by those at the top is to keep lists of tasks to be accomplished daily. These lists order Jobs from most essential to least essential and are checked regularly through the day to access progress. Not only is this an effective way to manage time, but also it serves to give individuals a much-deserved sense of satisfaction over their achievements.
