How to be a good listener
Everyone loves a good listener. But there are more reasons to develop the skill of listening than to win hearts or popularity contests.
Listening heals hurts and builds bridges. It gives us the ability to understand and empathize, to view the world from our own point. It can bring us wisdom over and above mere intelligence. But most importantly, it allows us to give the people around us the gifts they crave (渴望) most—a sense of worth.
As it turns out, there’s more to good listening than just keeping quiet and allowing someone to speak. Effective listening is actually a combination of two key communication skills: listening and verifying (确认).
Even when we’ve managed to hear a person’s entire message, we often interpret it wrong—according to our own understanding, experience, or prejudice. As an effective listener, your goal is to hear and absorb what another has to say……in exactly the way they mean it to be understood. Only then can you respond properly. This is much easier read than done, so here are a few helpful tips:
1. Give the speaker your full attention.
Stop talking and remove all distractions. Turn off the TV, your phone, or computer. Watch your body language. The way you look at the speaker, or the way you stand or sit, makes a huge difference. The right listening body language communicates that we are listening openly and attentively, and puts the other person at ease.
2. Be patient.
Not everyone is a gifted speaker. Some people take longer to find the right word to make a point. Others are too worried to get their message across properly. If necessary, ask the speaker to explain further. It will help him / her speak more exactly and it will help you hear and understand better.
3. Keep your emotions in check.
If what someone is saying creates an emotional response in you, make an extra effort to listen carefully. When we’re angry, frightened or upset, we often miss key parts of what is being said.
4. Hold your fire.
Don’t jump to conclusions immediately. A good listener doesn’t react until comprehension is complete. If you respond in a way that makes the other person defensive, even if you “win” the argument, you may lose something far more valuable.
5. Even if you think you understand. VERIFY.
Never assume you got the message right. Pause, think about what was said, and then ask “Is this what you meant?” or “Am I understanding this right?”
6. Empathize
Take a moment to stand in the other person’s shoes, to look at the situation from his / her point of view……especially when you’re being told something personal or painful, or something you strongly disagree with. The more shoes you are able to successfully stand in within your life time, the less puzzled you’ll find your life and relationships to be.

根据短文内容， 从下框的A-F选项中选出能概括出每段主题的最佳选项。选项中有一项是多余项。(E=A+B; F=A+C;)
A. Make posters and signs catchy and helpful
B. Build your network and remind them to vote
C. Be confident in yourself all the time
D. Give a great speech with full preparations
E. You can win as long as you try your best
F. Determine your issues and keep your promises
How to convince your fellow students to vote for you in an election?
1._________________________________________
Think about why you want to run and what you want to do if you win. These are your issues. Then let people know what you will do if elected. When you do this, be careful not to make promises you can’t keep. Make sure your issues affect all students. If you promise to try to get the whole school painted your favourite color, students probably won’t vote for you. But, if you promise to get rid of that yucky(令人反感的)lunch menu item that no one likes, or raise money for more computers in the library, students will see that you are interested in things they care about, and they’ll vote for you.
2.____________________________________________
Keep it short, simple, and interesting, and students will remember you. Start by writing down your issues and the reasons you think you’re a good person for the job. This is the heart of the speech and will convince other students to vote for you. Start with a story to get people listening and then move on to your issues. Practice your speech so you get used to it, and you won’t be as nervous. Ask your parents or friends to listen a couple of times before the big day. When the time comes to give your speech, relax. You’ll be ready and the other students will notice.
3._____________________________________________
One of the best ways to get people to vote for you is to talk to them about it. Ask your friends to help. In many elections, people don’t vote at all. If you take the time to talk to them ,and remind them to vote, you’ll increase your chances of winning. Remind them why you’re running, and why they should vote for you. They’ll appreciate that you took the time to talk to them in person. And they’ll probably remember your name on the ballot(选票)!
4._____________________________________________
When you make your campaign posters, use a catchy slogan that helps other students remember your name. It can help you win votes. If you have trouble coming up with a catchy slogan, try searching the Internet. Don’t depend solely on posters. Your fellow students have to know why you’re running, and that’s why your speech and networking are so important.
5._______________________________________________
If you keep these things in mind, you can win your election. Just remember that you have to be prepared to work hard to help your fellow students improve your school.

Write a winning story!
You could win ￡1,000 in this year’s Fiction Prize and have your story printed in Keep Writing magazine. Ten other lucky people will win a cheque for ￡100.
Once again, we need people who can write good stories. The judges, who include Mary Littlejohn, the novelist, Michael Brown, the television reporter, and Susan Hitchins, the editor of Keep Writing, are looking for interesting and original stories. Detective fiction was extremely popular last year, although the competition winner produced a love story. You can write down about whatever you want but here’s some advice to start your thinking:
Write about what you know
This is the advice which every writer should pay attention to and, last year, nearly everyone who wrote for us did exactly that. Love, family, problems with friends ---- these were the main subjects of the stories. However, you need to turn ordinary situations into something interesting that people will want to read about. Make the reader want to continue reading by writing about ordinary things in a new and surprising way.
Get your facts right
It’s no good giving a description of a town or explaining how a jet engine works if you get it wrong. So avoid writing anything unless you’re certain about it.
Hold the reader’s attention
Make the beginning interesting and the ending a surprise. There is nothing worse than a poor ending. Develop the story carefully and try to think of something unusual happening at the end.
Think about the characters
Try to bring the people in your story alive for the reader by using well-chosen words to make them seem real.
Your story must be your own work, between 2,000 and 2,5000 words and typed, double-spaced, on one side only of each sheet of paper.
Even if you’re in danger of missing the closing date, we are unable to accept stories by fax or email. You must include the application form with your story. Unfortunately your story cannot be returned, nor can we discuss our decisions.
You should not have had any fiction printed in any magazine or book in this country ---- a change in the rules by popular request ---- and the story must not have happened in print or in recorded form, for example on radio or TV, anywhere in the world.
Your fee of ￡5 will go to the Writers’ Association. Make your cheque payable to Keep Writing and send it with the application form and your story to:
Keep Writing
75 Broad Street Birmingham
B12 4TG
The closing date is 30 July and we will inform the winner within one month of this date. Please note that if you win, you must agree to have your story printed in our magazine.
1.How should writers deal with ordinary situations while writing?
A. They should make them appealing to readers.
B. They should copy others’ ideas.
C. They should change some facts to make them interesting.
D. They should describe them as they are.
2.What shouldn’t a writer do?
A. Making the contents interesting.
B. Getting the facts right.
C. Meeting the deadline.
D. Making the end ordinary.
3.Writers should present their works in the following ways except that ____________.
A. they should write originally
B. they can type their stories as they like
C. they should follow some rules
D. they should hand in their stories in time
4.Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?
A. Late stories can be faxed if necessary.
B. Entry needs no fee.
C. Winners can have their stories printed in other magazines.
D. All stories should be presented by mail

Winning the lottery (彩票) is not the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow for many past winners. Sad stories do exist in large numbers for the past lottery winners and that's why some financial experts say "70 percent of lottery winners will squander away (乱花) winning within a few years." Some end up losing all within two years, family relationships destroyed or even worse.
Wayne Schenk was an old soldier diagnosed with lung cancer. When he won a million dollars in a lottery he thought his troubles were over and he would get the advanced medical treatment that might save his life. But Lottery officials refused to pay him the total sum in a single payment and they said they could not make an exception to the regulations. When Schenk died in 2007, he'd only received one payment of $34,000.
Another lottery winner, Billy Bob Harrell, Jr. killed himself two years after winning 31 million dollars in the Texas lottery in 1997.He'd spent large amounts of money and given large amounts away, but he didn't end me expected peace that should have come with the freedom of money.
Other lottery winners have ended up in prison for crimes. Many suffer bankruptcy (破产) after the big jackpot (头奖) is spent and given away, including some of the eight people who won the 365 million Powerball in 2006.
The examples given paint a sad picture of what can happen if you win a big lottery jackpot, but fortunately, these examples don't tell the stories of all jackpot winners.
1.What is the main idea of the first paragraph?
A. Most lottery winners use up money quickly.
B. Most lottery winners don't really end up well.
C. Winning lottery means relationships destroyed.
D. Financial experts are against the lottery industry.
2.Why did lottery officials refuse to give Wayne Schenk the million dollars in one payment?
A. He was diagnosed with lung cancer.
B. He was unwilling to give away his money.
C. They had to observe the official rules.
D. They didn't want to disturb his peace.
3.The author supports his main idea by ____.
A. giving examples B. making comparisons
C. listing numbers D. listing reasons
4.In the following paragraph, the author will probably talk about_____.
A. advice given by financial experts
B. happy stories of the lottery winners
C. conclusion drawn by the author
D. regulations about lottery winning
