We all face quantities of stresses in day-to-day living, whether at work, in the home, or anywhere in between. 1. Here's how stress can help us on an everyday basis.
◆ Sharpen your memory.
Did you ever notice that sometimes when you are stressed, your memory seems to improve? Remember that test you passed where the answers seemed to come out of nowhere? 2. It's because of stress hormones（荷尔蒙）that increase your alertness(机敏) when it's most needed.
◆ 3.
Successful employees turn stress into motivation. Have you ever noticed that you get the least amount of work done when you have the fewest deadlines? Too little stress can affect how much you actually get done. When you take risks and choose to get over the difficulty, it improves your mental toughness and self-confidence.
◆ Helping you resist the attack of illness.
4. Believe it or not, the right kind of stress can help your body's defenses against illness. When you get sick, stress causes you to make hormones that battle threats to your health. That burst of stress is helpful to your immune system when your body faces a threat.
◆ Making your life more interesting.
Think about some stressful situations that we consciously put ourselves in to make life more interesting and enjoyable, like asking someone out on a first date, conquering a known fear, or learning something new. These may not immediately come to mind when you think of stress because of the positive outcomes. 5.
A．Helping you get an advantage at work.
B．Helping you get through difficult times.
C．This will happen whenever you are stressed.
D．That's one way your brain responds to stress.
E. You need a healthy immune system to help fight off diseases.
F. But they're the types that can help you achieve fulfillment and happiness.
G. But handled properly, stress can have many benefits for the body and mind.

I was never very neat, while my roommate Kate was extremely organized. Each of her objects had its place, but mine always hid somewhere. She even labeled (贴标签 ) everything. I always looked for everything. Over time, Kate got nearer and I got messier. She would push my dirty clothing over, and I would lay my books on her tidy desk. We both got tired of each other.
War broke out one evening. Kate came into the room. Soon, I heard her screaming, "Take your shoes away! Why under my bed!" Deafened, I saw my shoes flying at me. I jumped to my feet and started yelling. She yelled back louder.
The room was filled with anger. We could not have stayed together for a single minute but for a phone call. Kate answered it. From her end of the conversation, I could tell right away her grandma was seriously ill. When she hung up, she quickly crawled (爬) under her covers, sobbing.
Obviously, that was something she should not go through alone. All of a sudden, a warm feeling of sympathy rose up in my heart. Slowly, I collected the pencils, took back the books, made my bed, cleaned the socks and swept the floor, even on her side. I got so into my work that I even didn't notice Kate had sat up. She was watching, her tears dried and her expression one of disbelief. Then, she reached out her hands to grasp mine. I looked up into her eyes. She smiled at me. "Thanks."
Kate and I stayed roommates for the rest of the year. We didn't always agree, but we learned the key to living together: giving in cleaning up and holding on.

In our comparison?soaked (攀比成风的) culture, it's hard to avoid slipping into “Why can't I？” mode. When one of my colleagues who I think is not better than me published a new book, I couldn't help complaining how unachievable it seemed to me and what bad luck I had. Negative feelings like this made life dark for us. 1. Here's what I learned：
Don't compare your insides to someone else's outsides.
The first time I heard this excellent advice, I was suffering from terrible envy. My professor's warning shocked me that “You have no idea what it took for them to get there. Don't just owe it to pure luck. 2.”
She was absolutely right, yet it's much easier to envy what they've got than to ask the serious questions: What are they modeling for me? What have they done to get where they are today? 3.
Transform comparison into celebration.
Admiration and envy are responses pointing us toward what we value most. 4. If you notice yourself admiring people who take creative risks, bring your full attention to the part of you that wants to be braver.
_5.
Next time you catch yourself admiring or envying someone's success, take a moment to consider: What qualities in them inspire me? Where do I presently display these qualities? Remember the light we see in others can help us see our own!
A．Use the success of others as a mirror.
B．Learn to appreciate others' shining points.
C．How to get rid of the harmful effects of comparison needs exploring.
D．However, there is no doubt that good luck can't be ignored.
E．Instead, you should find out what's really going on behind the scenes.
F．And once we become aware of what we value, we are much better positioned to create a richly satisfying life.
G．When we reflect on these questions, we shift immediately out of comparison mode and turn inwards.

Almost everybody in America will spend a part of his or her life behind a shopping cart. They will in a lifetime, push the chrome?plated_contraptions many miles. But few will know — or even think to ask — who it was that invented them.
Sylvan N. Goldman invented the shopping cart in 1937. At that time he was in the supermarket business. Every day he would see shoppers lugging groceries around in baskets they had to carry.
One day Goldman suddenly had the idea of putting baskets on wheels. The wheeled baskets would make shopping much easier for his customers, and would help to attract more business.
On June 4, 1937, Goldman's first carts were ready for use in his market. He was terribly excited on the morning of that day as customers began arriving. He couldn't wait to see them using his invention.
But Goldman was disappointed. Most shoppers gave the carts a long look, but hardly anybody would give them a try.
After a while, Goldman decided to ask customers why they weren't using his carts. “Don't you think this arm is strong enough to carry a shopping basket？” one shopper replied.
But Goldman wasn't beaten yet. He knew his carts would be a great success if only he could persuade people to give them a try. To this end, Goldman hired a group of people to push carts around his market and pretend they were shopping! Seeing this, the real customers gradually began copying the phony (假的) customers.
As Goldman had hoped, the carts were soon attracting larger and larger numbers of customers to his market. But not only did more people come — those who came bought more. With larger easier?to?handle baskets, customers unconsciously bought a greater number of items than before.
Today's shopping carts are five times larger than Goldman's original model. Perhaps that's one reason why Americans today spend more than five times as much money on food each year as they did before 1937 — the coming of the shopping cart.
1.What do the underlined words “chrome?plated contraptions” in the first paragraph refer to?
A．Baskets. B．Private cars.
C．Suitcases. D．Shopping carts.
2.What was the purpose of Goldman's invention?
A．It was to prove him to be a good inventor.
B．It was to reduce the burden of his employees' work.
C．It was to make shopping easier and attract more business.
D．It was to help the disabled make shopping easily in his market.
3.Goldman hired a group of people to push carts around his market in order to ________.
A．attract people to buy things in his market
B．encourage people to use his shopping carts
C．make his market different from the others
D．keep the groceries from being stolen
4.What can we infer from the last paragraph?
A．Goldman will become very famous because of his invention.
B．Goldman's invention will be regarded as the greatest one in the world.
C．Supermarket business has benefited a lot from Goldman's invention.
D．There will be nothing that can replace Goldman's invention.

Life in 2060
Let us suppose it is now about A．D. 2060. Let's make believe (假装；虚构) it is about 45 years from now. Of course, things have changed and life is very different.
Voyages to the moon are being made every day. It is as easy to take a holiday on the moon today as it was for the people in 1960 to take a holiday in Europe. At a number of scenic spots on the moon, many hotels have been built. The hotels are air?conditioned, naturally. In order that everyone can enjoy the beautiful scenery on the moon, every room has at least one picture window. Everything imaginable is provided for entertainment of young and old.
What are people eating now? People are still eating food. They haven't yet started to take on heir (继承) supply of energy directly as electrical current or as nuclear power. They may some day. But many foods now come in pill form, and the food that goes into the pill continues to come mainly from green plants.
Since there are several times as many people in the world today as there were a hundred years ago, most of our planet's surface has to be filled. The deserts are irrigated with water and crops are no longer destroyed by pests. The harvest is always good.
Farming, of course, is very highly developed. Very few people have to work on the farm. It is possible to run the farm by just pushing a few buttons now and then.
People are now largely vegetarians (素食者). You see, as the number of people increases, the number of animal decreases. Therefore, people have to be vegetarians and we are healthier both in our bodies and in our minds, and we know the causes and cure of disease and pain, and it is possible to get rid of diseases. No one has to be ill any more.
Such would be our life in 2060.

As the November cold begins to take control
in the UK, Bonfire Night (or Guy Fawkes Night) is a chance to wrap up in winter clothes and warm up by the fire.
Celebrated on November 5, Guy Fawkes Night has been part of British history since 1605, when Fawkes was found trying to blow up parliament (议会) with barrels of gunpowder. Now, it is traditional for Britons to make a fake (假的) “Guy” every year from old clothes and burn it on the fire.
If you visit a small town in the southwest of the country, you might see men from the village run through the crowded streets with huge wooden barrels on their backs, then fill them with tar (焦油) and set them on fire. And in Lewes, a town in the southern English county of Sussex, different groups of bonfire societies parade (游行) the streets, each wearing their own unique outfits and carrying a giant mascot (吉祥物), which they burn at their own bonfire party at the end of the evening.
Bonfire Night is also a time for “chili con carne”， a dish made from slow?cooked beef mince, tomatoes, kidney beans, onions, and spices. It is often served on top of a hot jacket potato with butter and cheese. It's not the most elegant dish in the world but it's sure to warm people up while they brave the cold for the festivities.
But for many Britons, the night is not complete without “bonfire treacle toffee (太妃糖)”， which is also known as “plot toffee”， named after Guy Fawkes' plot to blow up parliament. The toffee is rock hard and is often broken with a hammer and handed out to guests.
Whether it's the sound of fireworks making Britain sound like a war zone, the hearty winter food, or the excuse to light a huge fire, Bonfire Night has something for everyone. Just watch out for those rockets!
1.What is Guy Fawkes Night?
A．A person to explode the parliament.
B．A guy to be controlled in the UK.
C．A symbol for Britons to enter winter.
D．A dish famous to British people.
2.Why do people have “chili con carne”？
A．Because it's the most elegant.
B．Because it's full of energy.
C．Because it's on jacket potatoes.
D．Because it's slowly cooked.
3.The underlined word “rockets” refers to “________”．
A．celebrations B．fireworks
C．performances D．bonfires
4.What is the text mainly about?
A．The origin of Guy Fawkes Night.
B．The introduction of a traditional food.
C．A complete toffee on Bonfire Night.
D．Activities on the night of November 5 in Britain.
