A
If you have to attend a
party or other social events where a lot of people
will be present, do you feel confident
that
you
will
make
a
good
impression
on
others?
Or
do
you
feel
shy?
In
any
case,
you
should
increase
your
confidence at social events.
Whenever
you
are
meeting
new
people
at
any
social
event,
you
should
wear
proper
clothes.
Before
you
attend
the event, try to find out how other people will
be dressing. If everyone else is wearing business
clothes,
you should, too. If the event
is informal, you should wear informal clothes so
that you fit in.
If you are going to
meet people from a certain business or profession,
try looking through a few professional
magazines
or
checking
on
the
Internet
ahead
of
time
to
get
some
conversation
ideas
which
are
related
to
their
fields of interest. This can prevent
you getting tongue-tied at the event.
When
you
are
at
the
event,
don’t
worry
about
whether
or
not
other
p
eople
you
are
talking
with
like
you.
Instead, try your best to find reasons
to like them.
When
you
are
making
conversation
with
people,
be
sure
to
keep
good
eye
contact,
and
make
your
facial
expression soft. Nod to show you’re
listening. Let your face and
body relax
so that you can make natural gestures.
After the event is over, take a bit of
time to think of your social performance and the
conversation you had
with people. Tell
yourself exactly what you did very well at the
event. For example, perhaps you made a big effort
to really listen to the people you were
talking with, or you may have asked several people
some good questions
that really got
them talking. By doing so, your conversation
confidence will gradually improve.

event?

I
have forgotten the name of an old lady in my home
town when I was a twelve-year-old boy. Yet it
dwells in
my memory that she taught me
a lesson in forgiveness that I shall never forget.
On a winter afternoon, a friend and I
were throwing stones onto the roof of the old
lady’s house. As a result,
the stone
headed straight for a small window. We knew we
were in trouble. We ran faster off her roof.
I was too scared about getting caught
to be concerned about the old lady with the broken
window in winter.
However, a few days
later, I started to feel guilty for her
misfortune. She still greeted me with a smile each
day
when I gave her the paper, but I
was no longer able to act comfortably.
I
made up my mind to save my
paper delivery
money. In three weeks I
had the seven dollars and put the
money
in an envelope with a note explaining that I was
sorry for breaking her window and hoped that the
seven
dollars would cover the cost for
repairing it. After that, I walked up to the old
lady’s house secretly, and put the
letter
I
didn’t
sign
through
the
letter
hole.
My
soul
felt
relieved
and
I
could
have
the
freedom
of,
once
again,
looking
straight into the old lady’s kind eyes.
The next day, I handed the old lady her
paper and she thanked me for the paper, giving me
a bag of cookies
she had made herself.
I thanked her and continued to eat the cookies
while walking.
After several cookies, I
felt an envelope and pulled it out of
the bag. When I opened the envelope, I was
shocked. Inside were the seven dollars
and a short note that said, “I’m proud of
you.”
5. What does the
underlined word “dwell” refer to?
A. Appear.
B. Change.
C. Happen.
D.
Exist.
6. What happened when the author
and his friend were throwing stones?
A.
The roof of the old lady’s house was
broken.

B. The stone broke a small
window of the old lady’s.
C.
The old lady broke into her house secretly.
D. The old lady gave him a bag of
cookies.
7. How did the author feel
about his breaking the old lady’s
window?
A. Lucky.
B. Discouraging.

Try this: For
an entire day, forget about the clock. Eat when
you’re hungry and sleep when you’re tired. What
do you think will happen?
You may be surprised to find that your
day is much like most other days. You’ll probably
get hungry when
you normally eat and
tired when you normally sleep. Even though you
don’t know what time it is, your body
doe
s.
These
patterns
of
daily
life
are
called
circadian
rhythms
(
生理节奏
),
and
they
are
more
than
just
habits.
Inside our bodies
are several clocklike systems that follow a
roughly 24-hour cycle. Throughout the day and
night,
our inner clocks direct changes
in temperature, body chemicals, hunger, sleepiness
and more.
Everyone’s rhythms are
different, which is why you might like to stay up
late while your sister always wants
to
go to bed early. But on the whole, everyone is
programmed to fell tired at night and energetic
during the day.
Learning about our body
clocks may help scientists understand why problems
arise when we act out of step
with our
circadian rhythms. For example, traveling across
time zones can make people wake up in the middle
of
the night. Regularly staying up late
can make kids do worse in tests.
“There
is a growing sense that when we eat and when we
sleep are important parts of how healthy we are,”
says Steven Shea, director of the Sleep
Disorders Program at Brigham and Women’s Hospital
in Bosto
n.
One
way
to
learn
about
how
our
body
clocks
tick
is
to
mess
them
up
and
see
what
happens.
That’s
what
neurologist
(
神经病学家
) Frank Scheer and his
workmates did in a recent study.
Staying
up
night
after
night,
their
studies
suggest,
could
make
kids
extra
hungry
and
more
likely
to
gain
weight.
And
regularly
sleeping
too
little,
Scheer
says,
may
be
one
cause
of
the
recent
increase
in
childhood
obesity.
8. What will happen if you forget about
the clock according to the passage?
A.
You will feel upset.
B. You will behave
normally.
C. Your body will not know
what time it is.
D. You will probably
get hungry more easily.
9. Mike feels
energetic at 12 midnight while Tom feels sleepy.
What advice would be given by the writer?

C. Regretful.
D. Annoyed.
A.
Both should see a doctor.
C. Both should take it easy.
B.
Tom should see a doctor.
D. Mike should
have a watch.
10. How do Frank Scheer
and his workmates study body clocks?
A.
By seeing what happens when they are messed up.
B. By asking questions and collecting
answers.
C. By studying people
traveling across time zones.
D. By
programming people with man-made clocks.
11. What will the writer most probably
talk about next?
A. Other examples of
what people will do when their body clocks go
wrong.
B. Medicines that can keep
people from putting on weight.
C. Why
it is important to have a normal body clock.
D. What circadian rhythms are.

Friendship is one of the
basic bonds between human beings. While the
characteristics of friendship might
vary from one country to another,
people from all cultures not only enjoy friends
but need them.
Many studies have shown
that teenagers who have no friends often suffer
from psychological disorders. It
has
been
shown
that
teenagers,
perhaps
more
than
any
other
age
group,
need
companionship
and
a
sense
of
belonging. The negative
consequences of loneliness have also been observed
among the elderly. The death of a
spouse often leaves a widow or a
widower totally bereft. If, however, they are
surrounded by friends and relatives
and
if they are able to express their feelings, they
are more likely to recover from their grief.
“No man is an island.” In other words,
we are all parts of society. We all need the love,
admiration, respect
and
moral
support
of
other
people.
If
we
are
fortunate,
our
friends
will
provide
us
with
all
of
these
necessary
aspects of life.
As
most
people
observe,
there
are
many
levels
of
friendship.
The
degree
or
intensity
of
friendship
varies
depending on the personality of the
individuals involved and the context of the
relationships. Outgoing persons
enjoy
being
surrounded
by
many
people
whereas
shy
persons
are perhaps
content with
fewer
but
more
intense
friendships.
Everyone is not
equally open with all their friends. The degree of
closeness is determined by many factors.
Close friends can
be formed
at any stage in one’s life but they are usually
very rare.
Not very many
people have more than a few really close friends.
Regardless of the level of closeness, all
friendships are based on reciprocity
(
互惠
), honesty and a certain
amount of love and affection.

A. No man is willing to live on an
island.
B. Man usually doesn’t go to an
island
C. Everyone is
related with our society.
D. Our
society is just like an island.

They are fond of making friends.

They have intense friendships.

Tips for Staying Sharp
It’s
not abnormal to feel out of it from time to time
or perhaps you’re feeling a bit sluggish
(
迟钝的
) when it
comes to remembering things. If you’re
worried about your forgetf
ulness, try
out these five tips to stay sharp.
Feed
your brain.
16
. If you decide to eat sugary foods
that are heavy with fats then expect to feel lazy
and have no energy.
But if you decide
to eat fruits, vegetables and make other healthy
eating decisi
ons you’ll find that
you’re full of
energy.
17
.
Challenge
yourself
constantly
—
whether
it
is
puzzles,
reading,
cooking
or
other
tasks
that
will
keep
your
mind working. If your
mind is always learning new things and active,
you’ll realize that it’s much
easier
for you to
learn new things and to
function. Remember your brain is a muscle and if
you want to get the most out of it, you
must use it.
