Faye Wong

Faye Wong(Wang Fei) is set to finally release her long-awaited new Mandarin album(国语 专辑).

“Future Love” is Wong's debut(首次演出) album for Sony, and is set to launch a spectacular(惊人的) attack on the charts by the Beijing-born star.

Wong could not have picked a better time to release her new record. She won the title of Asia's best female singer at the CCTV-MTV awards—in spite of not having had a new record for two years.

Born in Beijing, Wong moved to Hong Kong at the age of 18 and released her first album, the gold-selling “Wang Jingwen” the following year.

“Coming Home” though, was the album that shot her to stardom(明星地位)—several of its songs becoming big hits, notably(著名的) “Fragile Woman”(Rong Yi Shou Shang de Nü Ren).

Wong's charm lies not only in her artistic talent(艺术家的才能), but in her in-and-cool style. “She is just too  different—her voice, her manner of dressing and her persistence(坚持) in her own way of life, ”says Xiao Liao, one of Wong's fans, “she is now more a pop-culture idol(偶像) than a talented singer. ”

Wong is indeed a unique(独特的), down-to-earth(朴实的) idol. “I’m lazy and I smoke, ”she says, “I’m a straightforward(坦率) person and often offend(冒犯) people. I throw my temper around. I’m not motivated(有积极性的), and I’m always thinking of holidays. I’m not an idol, so please don’t treat me as one!”

1. Faye Wong achieved success as a singer with her album ________________.

A. “Future Love”

B. “Wang Jingwen”

C. “Coming Home”

D. “Fragile Woman”

Just like the young character in Hannah Montana, who so often fights with her father over her desire to be more independent, British teenagers also have their troubles.

A recent survey among 2,000 British parents shows that girls and boys experience similar kinds of stress, with some slight differences .

Girls want to grow up fast, demanding greater freedom. They feel pressure from their peers to be thin and sometimes dangerously experiment with alcohol .

Girls over 14 are more concerned with getting a boyfriend, make-up and going out with friends than with their schoolwork. They are more likely to complain about pocket money .

Parents found they have their toughest time with boys over the age of 15. Their sons are battling bad skin, are reluctant(不情愿的) to speak, and just like girls over 14 are little interested in their studies. Seven out of ten parents said their sons become frustrated(挫败的) when they are not understood .

Unsurprisingly, it isn’t just British teenagers who have such problems.

In a survey published in the US last month, two out of three high school students said their life was tough. There was a universal worry over body image and ability to fit in socially.

Plenty of the teenagers feel great pressures to get good grades, with nearly half regarding this as their top worry. The next biggest issue is pressure they face to get into good college. According to the survey, 66 percent reported saving their money to pay for all or part of college.

“Today’s American teens have witnessed what their families have endured during recent economic challenges, and they are much more aware of the importance of planning ahead,” said Stuart Rubinstein, managing director with TD Ameritrade, which carried out the survey.

What is the article mainly about?

         A. What makes the lives of teenagers so hard?

         B. How to deal with teen problems?

         C. Stress faced by UK and US teenagers.

         D. Peer pressure faced by UK and US teenagers.

According to the survey, boys over 15 often feel great pressure to ______.

         A. grow up fast                  B. experiment with alcohol

         C. get into a good college                  D. be more open and communicative

The underlined word “universal” in Paragraph 7 is closest in meaning to ______.

         A. global                     B. common                C. average                 D. reasonable

How have recent economic challenges affected American teens?

         A. They have become more concerned about their future.

         B. They are now more worried about the ability to fit in socially.

         C. They are attempting to learn more about money management.

         D. They are spending more time developing their practical skills.

Five Happiness Secrets For Tough Times
Sonja Lyubomirsky, an author, has researched the science of happiness for years.
Here are her tips to help you cope with a bad economy, and increase your bursts of happiness throughout the day.
【小题1】________
“You could spend a lot of time thinking deeply,” says Lyubomirsky.“But that just makes you feel even more pessimistic, more out of control, and affects your self esteem.Your relationships will suffer and your job performance will suffer.”
Get rid of pessimism.One of the most effective ways to cope when things are difficult is to adopt a positive thinking strategy.“What can I learn from this? Times are tough, I’ve been furloughed at work, but I can spend more time with the kids, adopt a new hobby, or learn a new set of skills.”
【小题2】________
Now more than ever we need each other to survive.Lyubomirsky found that doing good things for friends, family, or strangers can make you happier.Think of practical, everyday gestures that can make someone’s life a little bit easier.For example, Lyubomirsky says, “Maybe now many of us can’t afford to take a cab to the airport, so offer to give a friend a ride.”
【小题3】________
You don’t need an expert to tell you that relationships are critical to happiness.
Not being the bread-winner anymore or not being able to fulfill your kid’s needs can weigh down hard on your family life.But the trick is to stop feeling guilty and focus on caring for your loved ones.
“I was at a psychology conference where an expert was talking about the effects of this economy on families and how parents can’t afford to buy their kids luxuries like toys anymore,” says Lyubomirsky.“But what they don’t realize is that kids don’t care about toys — what they care about is parents being grumpy and taking it out on them.”
【小题4】________
“If you find a happy person you will find a project,” says Lyubomirsky.“Happy people all have goals they care about.”
Commit yourself to a project – whether it is a business you want to start or a dance you want to learn.But it’s also important to remember to be flexible in these times.
Don’t get frustrated if circumstances are stopping you from meeting your goals.Adopt and change!
“If your spouse has lost their job you might have to change your goal,” says Lyubomirsky.“Or you might have to learn a whole new skill for a new job.”
【小题5】________
When times are tough, it’s easy to get skip your regular workouts in favor of moping in front of the TV and eating a bag of chips.Your thinking is “I have more important things to worry about right now than looking good.”
But carve out a small part of your day to give your body some TLC.It will go a long way in boosting your happiness.“Even if you can’t afford to go to the gym,”
Lyubomirsky says, “take time out to exercise at home.”

The olinguito(小尖吻浣熊)is new to science. Although lt has been living in the cloud forests of South Amcrica for some time.

Scientists say the olinguito is the first new carnivore(食肉动物)discovered In the Americas in more than 30 years. It is a hairy orange-brown creature with a sweet face and big eyes The animal has small. rounded ears and lives in the trees An adult weighs one kilogram and measures about 75 centimeters. with half of those centimeters taken up by its ringed tail Most of the time. it likes to eat fruit, although it also eats meat. Active at night, the animal has lived in Colombia and Ecuador for a long time. But the olinguito did not exist in science books before now.

     Kristofer Helgen, director at the National Museum in Washington, led the research team that confirmed the existence of the olinguito. It had been mistaken more than a century ago for a look-alike animal -- a similar but larger olingo(尖吻浣熊). Mr. Helgen had been studying olingos in a museum for ten years. At that time. he observed a difference in the size and shape of the heads and teeth. That led him on an effort to prove he was looking at an animal never before described by science. He got lucky when he communicated with a zoologist in Ecuador. The animal expert there made a short video that shows an olinguito in the trees. The video confirms that the oiinguito is different from the olingo     Mr. Helgen says tens of thousands of olinguitos live in the wild and are not in danger of disappearing forever. Human beings, however, are moving closer to the olinguito habitat in the Andean cloud forests. The research team estimates that 42 percent of historic olinguiio habitat has been removed
