    How to Keep Strong

    知识就是力量，这是人所共知的常识，但是我们必须记住，高超的才智需要健康的体魄，这样才智才能得到充分发挥。

        Knowledge is power．But there is one other thing that we must remember．A strong mind needs a strong body so as to make it most useful．

    　　 There are a great many good exercises．They are helpful and healthful．Many of them may be taken indoors during rainy weather．Indoor exercises，however，are never as helpful as those taken out of doors in pure，fresh air．It is because in fresh air more oxygen is taken into our systems and more wastes are given off．The air in the house does not remain fresh very long．But out of doors it is usually fresh and pure．

        But what shall we play?  There are a number of games such as football，basketball and races．Any games with plenty of movement is good．The best are those which are played out of doors．

        Do not neglect your body．It is of as much importance as your mind．Our country now needs men with strong minds，good judgment，and sound bodies．

    Comprehension questions：

    1．A strong mind needs a strong body in _______to make it most useful．

    2．_______ exercises are more helpful than those taken indoors．

    3．Sound bodies means _______ or _______bodies

     

    答案：
    解析：

    1．  order。In order to do sth.目的是…。

    2．  outdoor。户外运动比在户内进行的运动更有益处。

    3．  healthy，strong。健康的身体意味着健康的或者是强壮的身体。

    How to Make a Budget(预算)

    　　Most likely, you aren’t the family bread winner．But doing a small job or getting a weekly allowance(零花钱)would put some money in your pocket．For kids and grown-ups alike, money is easy to spend．If you aren’t careful, it can be going in no time．

    　　Being responsible with your money is an important skill to learn－and the sooner you start the better．Whether you are tracking your spending or saving for something special, creating a budget can help you deal with your expenses and plan for the future．All you need are paper and a pencil－and some self-control．

    　　First, take a look at our sample monthly budget．Then, use a separate sheet of paper to plan your own．In the first two columns(栏), list your sources(来源)of income and how much you expect to earn from them．In the third and fourth columns, list what you expect to spend your money on and the amount．

    　　The left-hand total should be more than or equal to the right-hand total．If it is, you have an effective budget．

    　　Budgets are not complex, but sticking to them can be tough．When planning your budget, be realistic about your expenses．If you know that you drop ＄18 at a movie, don’t write ＄12 in that space simply because you wish you were spending less．

    　　If you are eyeing a big purchase, such as a ＄150 skateboard, spend less and save more until you have the total amount．No matter how attractive it may be, avoid spending your savings．One day, you will thank yourself!

    How to beat nerves

    　　Do you blank out, freeze up(呆住)or feel so nervous in exams that you have trouble writing answers to questions that you knew just last night?

    　　If so, you likely have a case of test anxiety．

    　　But, don’t panic．By recognizing the problem, you are taking the first step towards overcoming it．

    　　Believe it or not, a touch of nervousness can sharpen your mind, allowing you to perform more quickly．This is because under stress, the body releases the hormone adrenaline(肾上腺素), which prepares it for something important that will happen．However, too much anxiety can result in sleeplessness, loss of appetite before tests, and poor performance．Some people might feel shaky(weak), hot, or even sick．

    　　If you worry a lot or are a perfectionist, you are more likely to have trouble with test anxiety．Those who have prepared poorly for a test or have had negative experiences taking tests may also experience test anxiety．

    　　When you feel a storm of anxiety coming on, stop what you're doing and make your mind a blank．If possible, actually tell yourself to ‘STOP!’ This will get your mind off the stress．Then think of being at a place of comfort and let your body relax．As you continue the test, find questions you know the answers to and answer them first．This will help restore your confidence．

    　　Talk to yourself using positive language．Make it a habit to replace each negative thought with a logical reason．For example：“I've studied hard and I know the material, so I’m ready to do the best I can．”Another thing you can do is to learn to accept mistakes．In fact, they can be valuable learning opportunities．

    　　Last but not least, start test preparation early three to five days ahead of the quiz or test．After all, good study habits and skills．for example, time management and note-taking will give you the feeling that you are in control．

    (1)

    The main purpose of the passage is to ________．

    [　　]

    A．

    tell you that worrying is no good

    B．

    show the ways to overcome test anxiety

    C．

    describe the effects caused by exams

    D．

    suggest making full preparations for exams

    (2)

    From the passage, we know that when you experience test anxiety, you ________．

    [　　]

    A．

    are no longer sure of yourself and cannot think clearly

    B．

    develop negative thoughts about yourself in everyday life

    C．

    feel so nervous that you can’t sleep before the test

    D．

    feel anxious in the exam and always fail in exams

    (3)

    The phrase“last but not least”at the last paragraph means ________．

    [　　]

    A．

    the last but actually there are more

    B．

    the last in order and importance

    C．

    the last but as important as others

    D．

    the last but the most important

    (4)

    From the passage, we can infer that ________．

    [　　]

    A．

    you should not place too high expectations on yourself

    B．

    low scores in exams are only a result of test anxiety

    C．

    you need to get yourself completely under control

    D．

    test anxiety forms good study habits

          How do you repair a broken friendship?I'll give you several tips below.
          To begin with,a real friend is a treasure (财富)．You don't throw a friend away because your feelings got hurt or you are unwilling to discuss a misunderstanding.Don't let senselss things destroy your friendship.To me,if it's worth the fight,it is worth the sacrifice (牺牲)．If you can't sacrifice to keep the friendship,
    then maybe it isn't true friendship.
          Be willing to apologize even if the problem isn't your fault.The friendship is larger than who is at fault.If you can heal the friendship with an apology,then do so.Don't wait for your friends to realize how wrong
    they are,or even to admit their share of guilt.Go to them.Make the first move.Raise the white flag first.
    However you want to look at it,be willing to do what it may take to heal the relationship.Many friendships stay wounded or destroyed because both waited for the other to make the first move and neither did.
          Remind each other that the friendship is more important.A simple reminder of how special the
    friendship is will go a long way to soften a hard heart.Be willing to take the higher ground.I have a policy in my marriage that if there is a disagreement in values,we always take the higher one.If you can't come up to your friend's level,you will begin to estrange him.I feel that the friendship is more important than my
    personal position.The higher ground is always safer anyway.

    How Much to Tip
         You're out to dinner.The food is delicious and the service is fine.You decide to leave a big fat tip.Why?The answer may not be as simple as you think.
         Tipping, psychologists have found, is not just about service.Instead, studies have shown that tipping can be affected by psychological reactions to a series of different factors from the waiter's choice of words, to
    how they carry themselves while taking orders, to the bill's total.Even how much waiters remind customers of themselves can determine how much change they pocket by the end of the night.
         "Studies before have shown that mimicry (模仿) brings into positive feelings for the mimicker, "wrote
    Rick van Baaren, a social psychology professor."These studies show that people who are being mimicked become more generous toward the person who mimicks them."
         So Rick van Baaren divided 59 waiters into two groups.He requested that half serve with a phrase such
    as, "Coming up!"Those in the other half were instructed to repeat the orders and preferences back to the
    customers.Rick van Baaren then compared their takehome pay.The results were clear-it pays to mimic
    your customer.The copycat (模仿者) waiters earned almost double the amount of tips to the other group.
         Leonard Green and Joel Myerson, psychologists at Washington University in St.Louis, found the
    generosity of a tipper may be limited by his bill.After research on the 1,000 tips left for waiters, cabdrivers, hair stylists, they found tip percentages in these three areas dropped as customers' bills went up.In fact, tip
    percentages appear to plateau (稳定期) when bills topped $100 and a bill for $200 made the worker gain no bigger percentage tip than a bill for $100.
         "That's also a point of tipping, " Green says."You have to give a little extra to the cabdriver for being there to pick you up and something to the waiter for being there to serve you.If they weren't there, you'd
    never get any service.So part of the idea of a tip is for just being there."
    1. Apart from service, how many other factors affecting the customers'tipping are mentioned in the
        passage?
    A. 1.  
    B. 2.  
    C. 3.  
    D. 4.
    2. These studies show that________.
    A. tipping can be affected by physical reactions to many different waiters
    B. people who are being mimicked usually tip less to the person who mimics them
    C. the mimic waiters can get almost twice as much money as those who don't mimick others
    D. mimicry makes the mimicker feel bad
    3. According to the passage, which of the following will be likely to show the right change of the tip
        percentages?
    4. We know from the passage that the writer seems to________.
    A. object to Mr Green's idea about tipping
    B. think part of Mr Green's explanation is reasonable
    C. give his generous tip to waiters very often
    D. support the opinions of Mr Green and Rick van Baaren about tipping

         "How lucky you are to be a doctor..." Anyone who's a doctor is right out of luck, I thought.Anyone_
    who's_studying_medicine_should_have_his_head_examined.
         You may think I want to change my job.Well, at the moment I do.As one of my friends says-even
    doctors have a few friends-it's all experience.Experience!I don't need such experience.I need a warm,
    comfortable and undisturbed bed all my own.I need it badly.I need all telephones to be thrown down
    the nearest well.That's what I need.
         All these thoughts fly round my head as I drive my Mini (微型汽车) through the foggy streets of East
    London at 3 : 45 a. m.on a December morning.I am a ministering angel in a Mini with a heavy coat and
    a bag of medicines.As I speed down Lea Bridge in the dark at this horrible morning hour, the heater first
    blowing hot then cold, my back aching from the car－seat, I do not feel like a ministering angel.I wish I
    were on the beach in southern France.Call me a bad doctor if you like.Call me what you will.But don't
    call me at half past three on a December morning for an ear－ache that you have had for two weeks.
         Of course, being a doctor isn't really all bad.We_do_have_our_moments. Once in a while people are
    ill, once in a while you can help, once in a while you are given a cup of tea and rock－hard cake at two
    o'clock in the morning-then you worry if you have done everything.But all too often "everything" is a
    repetitious rule:look, listen, feel, tap, pills, injection, phone, ambulance and away to the next.
          And then there is always the cool, warm voice of the girl on the switchboard of the emergency bed
    service who will get your patient into hospital for you-the pleasant voice that comes to you as you stand
    in the cold, dark, smelly and dirty telephone box somewhere in a dangerous section of town.Oh, it has

    C. He hates the telephone as a modern means of communication.
    D. He is not happy with the small and uncomfortable car he is driving.
    3. The statement "We do have our moments" could best be replaced by "________".
    A. we doctors are called at a moment's notice to see people who need medical treatment
    B. usually we are glad that we can do something to help the sick
    C. sometimes we find people are thankful for our help
    D. there are chances that doctors find their work rewarding and satisfying

    A. is a bad doctor, unwilling to make a house call during the night－time
    B. is so dissatisfied with his job that he wishes to find a new one

    D. thinks a doctor can enjoy certain special rights whether he felt lucky or not
    5. We can conclude that________.
    A. the author is worried about his patient when he is driving through the foggy streets of East London
    B. the author is annoyed to be called out at such a horrible morning hour for an earache patient
    C. the author is now heading for the beach in southern France for his holidays
