5．To behonest，a lot of peopleattachimportance tobecoming（become） rich and famous．Some people have ever dreamed of playing at a concert with everyone clapping andappreciatingtheir mus ic．Thus，many musicians meet andforma band．Sometimes they play in the street or subway to passers-by so that they canearnsome extra money．However，there was once a band called"the Monkees"which started in a different way．The musicians，of whom the band was formed，playedjokes on each other as well as played music，most of which was looselybased on"the Beatles"．They were so popular that their fans formed clubs in order to get morefamiliarwith them．Though the band brokeupin 1970，happily they reunited in the mid-1980s．

4．Will it matter if you don't take your breakfast？Recently a test was given in the United States．Those tested included people of different ages，from 12 to 83．During the experiment，these people were given all kinds of breakfasts，and sometimes they got no breakfast at all．Special tests were set up to see how well their bodies worked when they had eaten a certain kind of breakfast．The results showed that if a person eats a proper breakfast，he or she will work with better effect than if he or she has no breakfast．This fact appears to be especially true if a person works with his brains．If a student eats fruit，eggs，bread and milk before going to school，he will learn more quickly and listen with more attention in class．Contrary to what many people believe，if you don't eat breakfast，you will not lose weight．This is because people become so hungry at noon that they eat too much for lunch，and end up gaining some weight instead of losing some．You will probably lose more weight if you reduce your other meals．

19．Mosquitoes have an extraordinary ability to target humans far away and fly straight to their unprotected skin．Regrettably，mosquitoes can do more than cause an itchy（发痒的）wound．Some mosquitoes spread several serious diseases，including Dengue，yellow fever and malaria．
Over one million people worldwide die from these diseases each year．New research now   shows how mosquitoes choose who to bite．
Mosquitoes need blood to survive．They are attracted to human skin and breath．They smell the carbon dioxide gas，which all mammals breathe out．This gas is the main way for mosquitoes to know that a warm-blooded creature is nearby．
But mosquitoes also use their eyes and sense of touch．Michael Dickinson is a professor at the California Institute of Technology．His research shows how these small insects，with even smaller brains，use three senses to find a blood meal．
Michael Dickinson's team used plumes-a material that rises into the air of carbon dioxide gas into a wind tunnel．They then used cameras to record the mosquitoes．The insects followed the plume．
Then，the scientists placed dark objects on the lighter colored floor and walls of the tunnel．Mr．Dickinson said，at first，the mosquitoes showed no interest in the objects at all．"What was quite striking and quite surprising is that the mosquitoes fly back and forth for hours．These are hungry females and they completely ignore the objects on the floor and wall of the tunnel．But the moment they get a hit of CO2，they change their behavior quite obviously and now would become attracted to these little visual blobs （斑点）．"
This suggested to the researchers that a mosquito's sense of smell is more important in the search for food．Once mosquitoes catch a smell of a human or animal，they also follow visual signals．

17．Baths and bathing have long been considered of medical importance to man．In Greece there are the ruins of a bathtub and water system built over 3，000 years ago．The Romans had warm public baths．In some as many as 3，000 persons could bathe at the same time．
　  Treating disease by bathing has been popular for centuries．Modern medical bathing or hydrotherapy，first became popular in Europe and by the late 1700's has also become popular in the United States．
　  For many years frequent bathing was believed to be bad for one's health．Ordinary bathing just to keep clean was avoided and perfume（香水）was often used to cover up body smells!
　  By the 1770's doctors began to say that soap and water were good for health．They believed that it was good for people to be cleaned．Slowly people began to bathe more frequently．During the Victorian Age of the late 19th century，taking a bath on Saturday night became common．
　  In the United States ordinary bathing was slow to become popular．During the 18th and early 19th centuries，many Americans were known as"The Great Unwashed!"In one American city，for example，a person could only take a bath every thirty days!That was a law!
　  Frequency of bathing today is partly a matter of habit．People know that bathing for cleanness is important to health．Doctors know that dirty bodies increase the chance of diseases．Con sequently，in the United States，people generally bathe often．Some people bathe once a day at least．They consider a daily bath essential to good health．

16．A person，like a commodity （商品），needs packaging．But going too far is absolutely undesirable．A little exaggeration，however，does no harm when it shows the person's unique qualities to their advantages．To show personal attractiveness in a casual and natural way，it is important for one to have a clear knowledge of oneself．A skilled packager knows how to add art to nature without any signs of embellishment（装饰），so that the person so packaged is not a commodity but a human being，lively and lovely．
    A young person，especially a female，shining with beauty and full of life，has all the favor granted by God．Any attempt to make up would be self-defeating．Youth，however，comes and goes in a flash．Packaging for the middle-aged is primarily to hide the marks made by years．If you still enjoy life enough to keep self-confidence and work at pioneering work，you are unique in your natural qualities，and your attractiveness and grace will remain．Elderly people are beautiful if their river of life has been through plains，mountains and jungles，running its course as it should．You have really lived your life，which now arrives at a self-satisfied stage of quietness and calmness with no interest in fame or wealth．There is no need to make use of hair dyeing．The snow-capped mountain is itself a beautiful scene of fairyland．Let your looks change from young to old in step with the natural ageing process so as to keep in harmony （和谐）with nature，for harmony itself is beauty，while the other way round will only end in unpleasantness．To be in the elder's company is like reading a thick book of deluxe（better quality）edition that attracts one so much as to be unwilling to part with．
　　As long as one find where one stands，one knows how to package oneself，just as a commodity sets up its brand by the right packaging．
