“I usually put my mobile phone in my bag, and I often feel like it is ringing when there actually is no phone call. Now I always want to keep it in my hand, being afraid that I might miss important calls or messages,” Miss Liu tells her doctor.
Miss Gu, a news worker, has to take her mobile phone with her all the time so as not to miss any calls from her office or readers. Gradually, she started to experience a great “panic” about her mobile phone. “Every night when I’m about to fall asleep, I often wake up with a start, feeling that my phone is ringing. Although I’m sure that I have turned it off, I still feel that it is ringing, clearly.”
The above phenomenon is what we call “mobile-phone acouasm (幻听)”. The mobile phone has now become a “new organ” in a white collar’s daily life, and “mobile-phone acouasm” has become a common phenomenon among office workers.
According to a report of China Youth Daily, “mobile-phone acouasm ” most likely results from people’s dependency on hi-tech products. It is associated with certain professions, such as salesmen, consultants and journalists. They use mobile phones almost continuously.
Constantly being in the “stand-by” mode, the strong psychological tension gives them acouasm. Meanwhile, a large number of this year’s graduates are joining the family of acouasm suffers due to the hard job-hunting experience.
“You know that the rings are not from your phone, but you always take it out and have a look. This is subconscious (潜意识) from your body sending you a signal, telling you that you must take a break to reduce your pressure,” Professor Sun Li from Huadong Normal University explains.
There are many ways to solve the problem. The professor says that the key is to deal with pressure from work. “This is just a kind of self-protection”; the most important thing is to find out the source of your pressure. And then take part in some activities that are not related to your work. You can do anything that can relax your body and mind.
【小题1】 According to the passage the phrase “mobile-phone acouasm” refers to          .

A.people’s being addicted to mobile phones
B.people’s feeling the unreal phone rings
C.mobile phones’ going wrong frequently
D.mobile phones’ disturbing people constantly
【小题2】How does “mobile-phone acouasm ” come about ? 
A.Some mobile phones are in poor quality.
B.Some people develop the dependency on mobile phones.
C.Some people listen to the music on mobile phones too much.
D.Something is wrong with some people’s hearing.
【小题3】What kind of people are more likely to suffer from “mobile-phone acouasm” ?
A.Those who use mobile phones too often.
B.Those who like mobile phones very much.
C.Those who lead a busy life.
D.Those who lead a free life.
【小题4】What is the most important measure to deal with “mobile-phone acouasm ” ? 
A.To buy a mobile phone of good quality.
B.To turn off your mobile phone.
C.To get rid of pressure from work.
D.To have your ears examined regularly.

“Luck is a matter of preparation meeting opportunity,” said the American talk show host Oprah Winfrey. I’ve never watched her show, but when a self-made billionaire gives life advice it’s probably worth listening to.
Her point is that blind luck is very rare. You may have to be lucky to find a good job these days but that does not mean you should sit at home waiting for the opportunity to come to you. If you’re a Chinese, you may already be familiar with the tale of a farmer waiting by a tree stump(树桩) for a rabbit to run out and break its neck.
A book by the UK psychologist Richard Wiseman, called The Luck Factor, argues we can all make ourselves luckier. It’s not about going to a temple to burn some incense(香) hopes that the gods will give you good fortune; it’s practical advice you can follow each day.
Wiseman conducted an experiment as part of his studies. First he divided volunteers into two groups; those who said they were lucky in life and those who said they were not. He gave everyone a newspaper and asked them to look through it to count how many photographs it had inside. On average, the unlucky people took about two minutes to count the photographs while the lucky people took just seconds. Why? On the second page of the newspaper, a command, “Stop counting. There are 43 photographs in this newspaper,” was written in big letters. The unlucky people mostly did not spot the message.
It’s easy to compare this situation to a young person looking for jobs in a local paper. They might search so hard for one type of position that they miss an even better opportunity. People who are “lucky”, in fact, keep an open mind and don’t go through the same routine every day.
I first came to China in 2002 when it was considered a rather strange thing to do. Like many foreigners, my plan was to teach English for one year. Seven years later, and still here, I’ve had many great opportunities such as writing for newspapers and magazines. I did not dream these would have been possible. I’ve also never been sick, had an accident, got into a fight or had problems with the police. Coincidence? After reading about Professor Wiseman’s studies I think not.
As Wiseman advises, I usually trust my own judgment. Your friends and parents may give you advice based on rational thinking, but it’s important to consider how you feel about each choice you make. Your feeling acts as a warning for a potential problem.
Finally, try to turn bad luck into good. Even if you do fall down and break a leg, the time spent at home can be used wisely to study English.
【小题1】Which of the following proverbs most agrees with the writer’s point?

A.Make the best of a bad job.
B.Rome was not built in a day.
C.All is not gold that glitters.
D.A good heart conquers ill fortune.
【小题2】What do you know about Oprah Winfrey?
A.She became famous through her family background.
B.She is a British talk show host.
C.She became successful by her own effort.
D.She was very lucky and seldom suffered setbacks in her life.
【小题3】The writer quoted the Chinese tale of a farmer in order to show __________.
A.man can conquer nature
B.luck is in your own hand
C.bad luck can turn into good
D.you should not sit at home waiting for the opportunity to come to you

Slow parenting means parenting children in the contact of nature without any interference (干预) of materialistic influence. We can also term it as “self-raising”. In slow parenting children are allowed to do what they think proper and parents just keep a watch over the child. Curiosity of the child leads to exploring and discovering things. Parents provide little help only when it’s too necessary, otherwise keep themselves away from the child and just have a look on him/her: This brings about a feeling of self-dependency and they are encouraged to solve their problems.
This is a natural way of learning. When a child is left to learn in a natural environment, the child’s natural development takes place. Influence of any materialistic way doesn’t let the mind develop naturally. Watching TV, playing video games or joining classes of dance, swimming or any other sports will not let the mind develop naturally.
Here creativity of their mind is developed. They explore ideas. The logic behind this is that the kids of animals learn by nature, so can our kids. So let our children play in the garden, to watch flowers, plants, birds, butterflies and other gifts of nature. In the classes of dance, swimming etc. their creativity is influenced and their natural creativity is suppressed (压制). In these classes they are overburdened and can’t train their creativity. So let them play in the open air or garden without any burden instead of joining classes.
Generally parents give toys to their children and explain how to operate them. But those parents who believe in slow parenting give toys and observe how the children are managing them. Their skill to learn and understand comes out. Maybe the process is slow, but it will be their exploration, which will make them self-dependent, and self-capable to learn.

  1. 1.

    In slow parenting, parents ______.

    1. A.
      set limits to what their children do
    2. B.
      keep a close watch over their children
    3. C.
      give the whole directions to what their children do
    4. D.
      give their children freedom to do what they think proper
  2. 2.

    What is the main advantage of slow parenting according to the passage?

    1. A.
      Arousing children’s curiosity.
    2. B.
      Helping children to be independent.
    3. C.
      Making children interested in exploring nature.
    4. D.
      Keeping children away from materialistic influence.
  3. 3.

    We can infer from the third paragraph that______.

    1. A.
      children should join some classes
    2. B.
      slow parenting should be done in a logical way
    3. C.
      exploring nature is a good way of slow parenting
    4. D.
      children can’t learn by nature like the kids of animals
  4. 4.

    What is the passage mainly about?

    1. A.
      Slow parenting and its advantages.
    2. B.
      Different parenting styles.
    3. C.

     Attending builds friendships and acknowledging builds friendships. Friendships require equality and
friendships require loyalty from friends. It takes three years to build true friendship.
     In most cases, the development from acquaintance to friendship occurs gradually. We reach out to
offer friendship by offering a potential friend caring, listening, talking, sharing, accepting, and affirming. It
takes time and effort to build friendship. They are built slowly, slowly, slowly…yet, nothing can add more
to your life than having truly intimate friends. "Just friends" is a goal which is well worth pursuing!
     Self-disclosure is usually the first step in establishing a confident. And it is scary because of the
potential rejection factor. Do it anyway!
     Listening and acknowledging builds friendships. Often when your child, lover/partner, or friend tells
you a story or voices a complaint, he/she is just asking for acknowledgement. This does not mean that
he/she wants agreement or compliance; it merely indicates a desire to be heard and understood.
     Many conflicts in our personal relationships can be avoided if you take the time to acknowledge
others' feelings and points of view.
     Listening and attending builds friendships. Paying attention to someone is called "attending".
     It means that your ears, your eyes, your body and your feelings are all focused on that person at one
time. Attending is a very important part of any relationship. Looking at and focusing on another person
shows that you are "there for him/her".
     Friends are equal. Without equality, you can't have a close friendship. Friends are loyal and
trustworthy. No one can confide in someone they can not trust to be loyal and to keep his/her secrets.
     Allow time for friendship to grow!

1. Mow many aspects influence people when building friendships?
A. Five.
B. Six.  
C. Seven.  
D. Eight.
