There was once a farmer who had a fine olive orchard（橄榄园）. He was very hardworking, and the 36 always prospered（繁荣）under his care. But he knew that his three 37 looked down upon the farm work, and were eager to make wealth.
When the farmer was 38 and felt that he would die, he 39 the three sons to him and said, “My sons, there is a pot of gold 40 in the olive orchard. Dig for it, if you wish it.”
The sons tried to 41 him to tell them in what part of the orchard the 42 was hidden, but he would tell them nothing more.
After the farmer was 43 , the sons went to work to find the pot of gold; since they did not 44 where the hiding-place was, they agreed to begin in a line, at one 45 of the orchard, and to dig until one of them should find the money.
They 46 until they had turned up the 47 from one end of the orchard to the other, 48 the tree-roots and between them. 49 no pot of gold was to be found. It seemed as if someone must have stolen it, or as if the farmer had been wandering in his wits. The three sons were bitterly 50 to have all their work for nothing.
The next olive 51 , the olive trees in the orchard bore（结果实）more fruit than they had 52 given; when it was 53 , it gave the sons a whole pot of gold.
And when they saw how much money had 54 the orchard, they suddenly understood what the wise father had 55 when he said, “There is gold hidden in the orchard. Dig for it, if you wish it.”

You are entering a world far different from the one my generation entered.My generation grew up with no MTV, no college loan,no $175 sneakers,no underwear worn in public and very little jewelry worn on the tongue.Yet somehow we broke through and,achieved all these things,and more.I believe that your generation is far more elegant and caring than my own.You ask questions: "What is the meaning of life?" "How can I make a fortune with almost no money down?" "Why do we have to sit round in the hot sun listening to an opening speech? "
I do not recall who it was that spoke at my own graduation.Whoever it was,I know I looked to him for wisdom and guidance,just as you now look to me.I suppose if there is one single suggestion I'd like to leave with you,it is like this: concentrate on what you are doing.If you have decided to do it well,you will be successful,no matter how hard your situation is.
Act bravely.Do not fear making mistakes; if you make one,look out.
Make a contribution to our society.Even though 70 percent of you will be lawyers,still I say to you: Try to do something useful with your life,if only in your spare time.
In a very real sense,your graduation here today is not an ending but a commencement.If I may say so,this is,in fact,the first day of the rest of your lives.I realize it is a bit shocking to look at graduation this way,but I believe we must.Thank you,and lots of luck.You'll need it.

A healthy amount of sunshine may be the secret to staying young. British scientists have discovered.
Vitamin D is produced naturally by the skin in response to (对…的反应) sunlight and may help to slow the ageing process and protect against heart disease, according to the study.
Researchers from King's College London studied 2,160 women aged between 18 and 79, looking at their telomeres-a biological marker of ageing found in DNA. As people get older, their telomeres get shorter and they become more susceptible (易受伤害的) to certain illnesses.
But the study found women with high levels of vitamin D had comparatively longer telomeres-a sign of being biologically younger and healthier.
The study suggests vitamin D may help to slow down the ageing process of DNA, and therefore the ageing process as a whole.
Lead researcher Dr Brent Richards said, "These results are exciting because they show for the first time that people who have higher levels of vitamin D may age more slowly than people with lower levels of vitamin D." This could help to explain how vitamin D has a protective effect on many ageing related diseases, such as heart disease and cancer."
Professor Tim Spector, a co-author of the report, added, " Although it might sound absurd(荒唐的), it's possible that the same sunshine which may increase our risk of skin cancer may also have a healthy effect on the general ageing process.
Vitamin D made by the action of sunlight on the skin accounts for 90 percent of the body's supply, but lower levels can also be got through food such as fish, eggs and breakfast cereals(粥).
Other studies have suggested the vitamin plays a key role in protecting against cancer and heart disease.
1.A certain amount of sunshine helps people stay young because _________.
A. people feel happy and energetic in the sun
B. vitamin D may help to slow the ageing process
C. sunshine protects people against heart disease
D. vitamin D makes one's skin look young and healthy
2.From Brent Richards, we know that ________.
A. sunlight causes skin cancer to people with high level of vitamin D
B. the study generally has a healthy effect on the general ageing process
C. the higher levels of vitamin D people have, the more slowly people may age
D. vitamin D can only be got from fish, eggs and breakfast cereals
3.What can we infer from the passage?
A. Sunlight does more good than harm to our health.
B. Telomeres are important as they are signs of ageing of the DNA.
C. Sunlight can be dangerous as it causes skin cancer.
D. Vitamin D can also be gained from food.
4.What is the best title of the passage?
A. Secret of Staying Young
B. Sunlight and Vitamin D
C. Vitamin D Helps Slow Ageing
D. Sunlight and Health

How to Fix a Relationship
If you're having a problem with your relationship, you're not alone.1.However, you can make it work out if you decide to work together to fix it.
Recognize the problems. Any number of problems could do harm to your relationship. You should look for signs and symptoms of the problems you're facing. Listening attentively is the key, which can help you understand what he or she is feeling. 2.Actually think about what the person is saying, and maybe try to understand what is behind the words, as well. You also have a right to discuss what you’re feeling and thinking. The key is to keep a calm head. 3.Once you’ve figured out what your problems are together, have a conversation to find ways to solve them. How can you solve the problems in a way that both of you can live with? 4. Start with the place you both agree on. Maybe you can both agree on the problem at least, or maybe you can agree on the first step to the solution. For instance, maybe you agree that you are feeling disconnected. Maybe you can take it one step further and agree that you need to spend more time together.
Make a plan together. Once you’ve agreed to solutions, it’s time to put them into concrete terms. For instance, if you both agree you need to spend more time together, then maybe the agreement will be that you should make a date at least once a week.
Find ways to compromise. The key to any relationship is learning to compromise. 5. Compromising is about finding common ground, and both of you giving in a little on the issue.
A. Spend time connecting.
B. Talk about solutions together.
C. Don’t just let the words pass over you.
D. In other words, you need to look for common ground.
E. Most people have trouble with relationships at one point or another.
F. You can’t just expect to win every argument, as relationships need to give and take.
G. Whatever you need to do, take a few minutes to calm down before continuing the discussion.
