I'm a survivor
of atomic bombing (
原子弹轰炸

Hiroshima, I was only nine months old. My family
were not even in the city

can kill you. One is the blast
(

fireball. ___17___And those who were touched by
the fireball disappeared
immediately.
And the third way is the radiation
(

remember both my mother and my sister were sick in
bed. And when I was six, they died.

tell my father that I wouldn't live to see my
tenth birthday. So I knew that I
was
not going to live long.___19___Whenever I get a
simple cold, I thought this might be the end of my
life.

was wrong for me to stay alive. Why did my sister
and my mother, who were
wonderful people, had to die? And yet

kills everything on its way.
It kills
slowly. and painfully.

the United States is attacked with radioactive

universal tips that will help you improve your
writing:

purpose

question to ask yourself before you start is why

most effective way.

readers through what you write

your message quickly and
precisely.______13______Each sentence,
each paragraph should be relevant to
what comes before and what comes after. You should
use words and phrases
that connect to
show these connections.

write the information for.

eye

hate it.

favorite color? Do you like yellow, orange, red?
___11___. Do you prefer grays and blues? Then
you are probably quiet, shy, and you
would rather follow than lead. You tend to be
pessimist. At least, this is what
psychologists tell us, and they should
know, because they have been seriously studying
the meaning of color
preference, as
well as the effect that colors have on human
beings. ___12___. If you happen to love brown, you
did
so, as soon as you opened your
eyes, or at least as soon as you could see
clearly.
___13___. A yellow
room makes most people feel more cheerful and more
relaxed than a dark green one; and
a
red dress brings warmth and cheer to the saddest
winter day. ___14___. A black bridge over the
Thames River,
near London, used to be
the scene of more
suicides(

immediately fell sharply. Perhaps it would have
fallen even more if the
bridge had been
done in pink or baby blue.
___15___. It is an established fact
that factory workers work better, harder, and have
fewer accidents when
their machines are
painted orange rather than black or
grey.

black is depressing.

our favorite color as grow up — we are born with
our
preference.

colors as you like.

active person who enjoys life, people and
excitement.

bright colors make people not only happier but
more active.

a picture or a poem, full of different
colors.

A
famous
saying
goes
：
Don't
judge
a
book
by
its
cover
．
It
reminds
us
that
when
deciding
its
value
(36)
．
This is what
the Love my Body movement is all
about
．
Its
message is that we should value ourselves
for who we are
．
But
it's
easier
said
than
done
．
Many
people
still
don't
feel
confident
in
themselves
and
their
appearance
．
(37)
？
Not comparing your body to
others' is a good first
step
．
An expert
points out that comparing only forms a
standard
（标准）
we
think we need to reach
，
and if we fail
，
it will lead to our feelings of
disappointment
．
(38) When someone says something
nice
，
accept it
happily
-
don't push it away
or play it down
．
And
praise others
too
．
If
you think someone looks
nice
，
or someone
has a good idea
，
tell them
．
It can lift
them
up
．
(39)
-
walking
，
yoga
，
playing sport or
otherwise
．
your shape or
size
，
，
another famous
expert
．
，
I attended the
gym
and realized how strong and able my
body was
，
even
though it was fat
．
So thank it very
much
．
Finally
，
the only person who can
truly affect your body positivity is
you
．
(40)
-
but don't give
up
，
you will
succeed sooner or later
．
Remember that everyone is short of
confidence sometimes
．
And as David
Fadd says
．
Love what you
look like
．
A
．
Learn to take praise
B
．
something's appearance should not be
the most important thing
C
．
So what can a
person do to improve the love of their own
body
D
．
a book's cover
is not important
E
．
Thank your body
for what it can do
F
．
So how
self
-
respect and body
confidence problems affect everyone
G
．
Becoming
