Put a little love in your life

I remember growing up, my mom always said,“Half the fun of doing anything is sharing it with others.” It is so true. Friends and mates allow us to enjoy our success and our joys, comfort us in our challenging moments, and provide a mirror for us to learn more about ourselves. I’ve always looked at friends as the family we choose. They enrich our lives. As Robert Louis Steven once said, “A friend is a present which you give yourself.”

   To be a good friend or partner, it’s importable be a good listener. Hear what your friend or mate has to say first rather than jumping to conclusions or getting defensive. Sometimes it is useful to be their mirror, for when they hear their words repeated back to them,it can help them to realize that what they said was not exactly what they meant to say.

Patience, compassion and empathy are also important traits in being a good friend or partner. You know the old golden rule, “Care for others the way you would like them to care for you.” The support of a friend during a tough time could make the difference between success and failure. Encouragement and confidence are priceless gifts that can help change a person’s life.

Take care, though, with whom you choose to have close relationship, for they can have a tremendous impact on your self-esteem and life path. As someone once told me, “the attitude of your friends are like the buttons on an elevator. They will either take you up or down.”

1. In order to make good friends, you should do the following except

     A.Be a good listener

     B.Be patient, compassionate

     C.Be careful

     D.Be generous to your friends

2. What will you do to your friends according to the passage?

     A.Buy your friend a mirror.

     B.Point out their mistakes if there is any

     C.Give them encouragement and confidence.

     D.Pay attention what they do

3. What does the underlined sentence in the passage mean?

     A.It is different whether you have friends or not.

     B.The support of friends counts when you have difficulties.

     C.A friend in need is a friend indeed.

     D.You are certain to succeed if you get the support of friends.

4. Which of the following statements is not right according to the passage?

     A.It is good to share your fun with other.

B.The friend is a mirror for us to learn more about others.

C.You’d better be a good listener if you want to be a good friend.

D.Be careful to choose your friend.

阅读下面文章,根据语篇内容,用恰当的词完成题后表格中所缺单词。(每格限填一词)

Hey! It's going to be Mother's day again. Have you planned something good for your Mama? If not, try even one of these tips.

Make Your Mama Proud

  What special talents do you have? Maybe this is the right time to show it to her. She would be very proud and surprised if she'd realized that you have something that she doesn't expect.

  What's Her Favorite?

  Most teens don't know what their mama's favorite. You do? Then, what are you waiting for ? Buy her some of her favorite stuff and put a little twist on it. Make it more special.

  The best time to give her that is while she is sleeping at night. Put it on the drawer next to her so that when she wakes up she'll be surprised to see it. And, maybe, a little tear may fall down from her cheeks.

  The Memories

  Our mothers have special memories in mind. Those are the times that they gave birth to their healthy baby. How about you? What's your best moment with her? Maybe you can tell her about the time she got mad at you because you did something that you thought is right but since that day forward you realized your mistakes. Or, you can tell her how happy you are when she was there during your painful days in your life.

  Be Her

  What does she look like if she is so exhausted and angry and tired? What does she do for your family? This is the right time to show her the things that she usually does at home. Try to imitate her voice when she is angry. Make your face as if you are her when she is mad.

  Treat a Queen

  Your house is a palace with a king and queen (it doesn't matter if you're rich or poor). Our mother is the real queen in our life and in our family though her duties make her look like she is not. Give the lady a day off by being a servant to her.

  Make-Over Beauty

  Because of stress and the problems that she is facing right now, especially in the family, she doesn't look great any more. Admit it! Most mothers are not into trends anymore because their focusing on us.

  Perhaps you could take some of your savings to treat her in a salon or the department store. Then, choose nice clothes that would make her look GLAMOROUS!

  Have Some of Your Time

  It's the cheapest but a meaningful way. Most of us are busy from our work, friends, boy/girl friends, school. We stay home late and after several hours, we go out again.

  Have you ever had a meaningful time with your mother where you don't think or talk about problems and arguments? Have you ever told her how much you thank her from the life she gave to you, the time she took care of you, and for every suffering she'd felt for you? Have you ever told her that you love her?

Life is short. We don't know what will happen tomorrow nor today. Those three words can make her heart jump for joy, you know? Just tell her “I love you!” and it would make her smile so sweetly. Just try! We don't want to miss a thing, right?

Tips on 71 _________ to make mother happy

Tell your mother your best 77 ______ with her. For example, tell her you were so happy when she 78 ________ care of you during painful days. Imitate her when she is tired or angry and all that she does for the family.

Below are some smart ways to stay healthy suggested by some American experts.

Drink More Coffee

When was the last time you heard a doctor use the word miracle? Well, wake up and smell the coffee: “It’s amazing,” says liver specialist Sanjiv Chopra, MD, professor of medicine at Harvard Medical School. “Coffee is truly a lifesaving miracle drug.”

Though he says it’s still a “scientific mystery” how a simple cup of coffee works its wonders in the body, large epidemiological studies have repeatedly proved its astonishing benefits.

“Drink it black, or at most put a little skim milk in it” to minimize calories, Dr. Chopra recommends. He drinks at least four cups a day himself, though most people should limit themselves to two. And no, he jokes, “I’m not sponsored by Starbucks.”

Take a Walk for Your Memory

Aerobic (有氧运动的) exercise is good for your body, great for your mind, according to the latest research from brain-fitness pioneer Arthur Kramer. Every year, an area called the hippocampus, which is key to memory, shrinks by about 1 to 2 percent, increasing the risk of dementia (脑衰) as the years roll by. However, Kramer’s new investigations reveal that the hippocampi of adults who walked briskly for about 45 minutes three times a week grew by about 2 percent over the course of a year, preventing age-related shrinking.

It’s never too late to start exercising, Kramer says; volunteers in his research were between 55 and 80 years old and hadn’t exercised at all. And it doesn’t need to be backbreaking. “Anything that raises your heart rate seems to work,” he says. “Walking is fine. Just find something you like and do it.”

Early to Bed, Early to Eat

“Being a night owl might increase your waistline,” says sleep expert Michael Breus, PhD. People who stay up late and sleep late tend to eat more fast food and consume more of their calories after 8 p.m. than do normal sleepers.

“One of the easiest things that anyone on a diet can do to improve her results is go to bed and wake up at the same times every day,” Breus says. “This way, your body knows when to sleep and is much more efficient. Organize your eating, too, by trying to eat meals at the same times every day. Avoid eating after 8 p.m., and don’t miss morning meals by sleeping in.”

Use the 20-Second Rule

What’s the difference between having a goal and actually accomplishing it? Just 20 seconds, says positive-psychology specialist Shawn Achor. Researchers have learned that if we can cut 20 seconds off the startup time required for a task, we’re much more likely to follow through. So, for example, if you want to work out in the morning, place your shoes and exercise clothes next to your bed the night before. If you want to praise people more, put thank-you notes and a pen on your desk.

Imagine the Worst to Feel Better

Don’t count your blessings; subtract (扣除) them. “Consciously spend a few minutes imagining what your life would be like without the good things,” says Timothy Wilson, a psychologist at the University of Virginia. You’ll experience stronger feelings of love, gratitude, and happiness when you think about what life would be like without the people and things you love. “And they’ll seem surprising and special again,” he adds.

1. According to Sanjiv Chopra, most people should not drink more than ______ cups of coffee a day.

A. two????????????? B. three????????????? C. four????????????? D. six

2.Which of the following may help people on a diet to improve their results?

A. Raising their heart rate.????????????? B. Taking a walk for their memory.

C. Eating at fixed times.????????????? D. Sleeping in every morning.

3.According to Shawn Achor, if people place their shoes and exercise clothes next to their bed at bedtime, they’re more likely to ______ the next morning.

A. do exercise????????????? ????????????? ????????????? B. set a goal?????????????

C. cut 20 seconds off????????????? D. sleep 20 minutes more

4. Why should people spend a little time imagining their life without good things?

A. To experience surprise.????????????? B. To feel better.?????????????

C. To consider their own blessings.????????????? D. To prepare for the worst.

第一节:阅读表达

We all know eating out can be a lot of fun. There’s the experience of having someone wait on your every need,the social aspect of being in a restaurant with friends and,of course,the great benefit of the lack of in—home cleanup.

2We all also know eating out can be expensive,and I’m pretty sure college isn’t the most

financially successful time in a normal person’s life. That’s why eating at home for a majority of meals really is the only option for many college students.   

Eating at home doesn’t have to be dull,boring,or difficult. —It can and should be an energetic,creative experience that transforms the way you look at food. When you cook for yourself, you know exactly how your pasta(意大利面)is going to turn out. You know where the greens in your salad come from. You know the olive oil you’re using really comes from olives that are pressed for the first time. Use eating at home as all opportunity to learn and develop your kitchen skills. I promise you they will remain useful and rewarding for the rest of your life.

Another important concept is to keep in mind that when it comes to shopping for food—less quantity, more quality. Buy base ingredients that are fresh,as local as possible and beautiful,and anything you cook will improve greatly. I promise you will be just as satisfied by eating a little bit less of something with a lot more quality.

I am not saying eating out is a bad thing. But I insist there are many more places that are not worth your cash. Put a little more effort into cooking for yourself at home and you will gain experience and appreciation for the world of food.    

1.. List three benefits of eating out according to the text. (no more than 20 words)

①_______________   ②_______________ ③_____________

2.. Complete the following statement according to Paragraph 2. (no more than 4 words)

Many college students have to eat at home because of __________________.

3. What's Paragraph 3 mainly about?(no more than 7 words)

____________________________________________________________________

4.What advice is given concerning shopping for food in Paragraph 4?(no more than 4 words)

____________________________________________________________________

5.. What does the underlined word it in the third paragraph refer to?(no more than four words)

____________________________________________________________________
