How to Enjoy Life As a Teen
The "best years of your life"?Maybe not,but you can learn to make the most of your high school days.
Learn to appreciate small things.Whether it's having a computer,having friends,having a good supply of food,a bed to sleep on,family that loves you,having a decent education or simply being born in this world,value it.1.Be happy,and life will reward you.Remember that these are the last few years you will be able to enjoy yourself without having to worry about the responsibility of an adult,but make sure you prepare yourself for when you do become one. When you actually become an adult,you'll learn to love that responsibility and you probably never want to go back.
Choose your friends wisely. Unlike what many articles state,you don't have to be popular and have a gazillion friends to be happy.2.Try to have friends that like you who you are,not just because you are wearing a certain brand of shoes or something like that.These are people who shop at the same store as you; not someone who will sympathize with you when your dog dies.
Keep your grades up.3.This also sets you up to get into a college you want to go to,which in turn prepares you for a career you will enjoy,improving your quality of life in the future.You'll get cheap car insurance as well if you have at least a B or A average.
4.Participating in clubs,activities,and sports increases your chances of meeting new friends.While you only need 4 or 5 close friends,that doesn't mean you shouldn't try to meet new people.Participating gives you something to do instead of sitting bored at home and wallowing in self-pity.
Work at a job you can enjoy.Working is a great way co gain experience and to meet other people.5.This will look great on your resume.If you can't find work,especially in this hard economic time,volunteer or make your own job.
A.Be sociable.
B.Remember the point of life is for you to enjoy it.
C.Find a hobby that is meaningful or practical.
D.In fact,many of the "friends" you have when you are popular are not true friends.
E.When you do get out of college, interviewing companies will look at your previous work experience.
F.Even though you want to enjoy your teen life as best as possible,don't idle away your time in school.
G.There is nothing more satisfying than seeing your hard work pay off in the form of A's and B's (but mainly A's).

Our neighbour’s son was getting married at an out-of-town church, and my husband and I were invited. We immediately rushed out to a store, and I bought a nice pink dress with a jacket. The dress was a little tight, but I had a month to go before the June 30 wedding and I would lose a few pounds.
June 29 came and, of course, I hadn’t lost a single pound; in fact I had gained two. But I figured a nice new girdle (紧身内衣)would cure everything. So on our way out of the city we stopped once again at the store. I ran in and told the clerk I needed a large-size girdle. The shop assistant found the box with the described girdle marked "LG", and asked if I would like to try it on. “Oh, no, a large will fit just right. I needn’t try it on.”
The next morning was rather hot, so I waited to get dressed until about 45 minutes before time to go. I opened the box only to find a new girdle in a small size. Since it was too late to find another one and the dress wouldn’t fit right without a girdle, a fight broke out in the hotel room between me and the girdle. Have you ever tried to shake 20 pounds of potatoes into a five-pound bag? That’s it. Finally my husband, laughing like crazy, got hold of each side and shook me down into it. At once I put on the pink dress, which didn’t match my red face well, and was ready to go.
Finally we got to the church. I heard one of the people say that they were having a High Mass. I turned to my husband and asked, "What is a High Mass?" He shrugged his shoulders.Unfortunately, I learned that this particular mass would last one hour, twenty-two minutes and eight and one half seconds—the priest (神父) was going to bless everything except my girdle.

Having a dental fear(牙科恐惧症) is a common problem. Learning to overcome your fear of the dentist is possible with a little determination and guidance. It is worthwhile to overcome the issue as healthy teeth might help you be healthy physically and spiritually.
Admission
Admitting you have a fear is the first step in overcoming dental fear. When you acknowledge your fear, you can start the process. Dentistry has come a long way over the years. The anesthetics(麻醉) are improved, the techniques are of higher quality and dental offices have a better understanding of these issues you are concerned and all these can help you overcome it.
Research
Speak to family and friends about your fear. Be open and honest about your issues and get feedback from them regarding their dental experiences. You can contact your local Dental Society and express your concerns. Another good approach is to simply call dental offices and get useful information from the front office staff.
First visit
Most dental offices schedule your first visit by a dental assistant. This gives you a chance to ease into the situation. Do not hesitate to express your fear and hesitation. Pay attention to what the assistant says. It can be very useful and it can gently guide you to a new attitude towards dentists.
Relaxation techniques
There are many things you can do to relax yourself. Slow, steady, deep breaths are keys to relax properly. Another aid in relaxation is to bring your iPod to play some relaxing music while you are in the dental chair. Music is a wonderful tool to use and is a helpful distraction.

The 2016 Rio Olympic Games have come to an end. Without doubt, many Chinese sports fans sat in front of the TV and cheered our athletes on, hoping that they would get as many gold medals as possible.
But sometimes our desire for gold medals can result in the sadness of failure. When Liu Xiang, China’s track hero, pulled out of the Beijing Olympics due to injury, he greatly disappointed many Chinese sports fans.
But things are different now. In the 2016 Rio Olympic Games, we saw a healthier and more lenient Chinese attitude toward the sportspeople, fully in line with the Olympic spirit.
China didn’t win any gold medals on the first day. But, instead of criticizing the athletes who failed to finish on top of the podium(领奖台), the majority of fans were happy with their efforts. “Reacting in the right way when an athlete misses out on gold shows the maturity of a person, and is also a challenge for a country to face up to in the process of development,” commented CRI.
Swimmer Fu Yuanhui won fans’ hearts, even if she only won a bronze medal in the 100m backstroke final. Her fans on her Sina Weibo micro blog have increased 100,000 to over 6 million. Many sports fans appreciated her straightforward character and attitude toward competition.
“The warm support from Internet users shows that public attitude toward competitive sport and the Olympics have gotten to a higher level,” said an article in the People’s Daily.
1.From passage 2, what can we know about Liu Xiang?
A. He is still a famous athlete.
B. He didn’t complete his event in the Beijing Olympics.
C. The audience desired him little.
