Attend the Next Forum

  For the last twelve years CPSB has had the pleasure of hosting a learning event we call a Forum. We started offering programs in Sarasota in February 1991 and our first Forum was held in 1992 as a small group meeting. Being from the Northern USA, this was a particularly good time to go south for the warmth of our friendships with Dr. Treffinger and Dr. Noller and to keep away from the cold winter.

  The Forum is the only chance to learn about various topics of the creativity and innovation(革新)and from those who have rich experience and interest in the field. The theme of the 2004 Forum includes searching for a few new methods, sharing lessons from experience, and learning and exchanging ideas on cutting-edge research.Space_is_limited,_so_early_registration(登记)is_welcome.

阅读下面短文并回答问题,然后将答案写到题后相应的位置上(请注意问题后的字数要求)。

  [1] High school is thought by many to be an exciting time when you make lasting friendships and look forward to college life.However, as all young people know, high school is full of pressures.

  [2] Fitting in is not only a major part of middle school and high school, but it is also crucial throughout life.The dream of being one of the “in-crowd” isn’t a desire you can simply tell yourself not to have; it’s something you should try to avoid.

  [3] Teachers and parents constantly tell us to be ourselves, but many of us have no idea who we really are.Those around us will always influence the choices and decisions we make.So how do you break the pattern? How can you pull away from the trends of today and make something that’s truly your own?

  [4] First, you need to gather up some courage, because being different from everyone else can be a little nerve-racking(令人紧张的).

  [5] Secondly, if you want to get anywhere, you must stop comparing yourself to others.Set aside any insecurity, because when it all comes down to it, you are who you are, and that’s all you will ever be.

  [6] Others will always influence you, and that’s OK; it’s human nature.But don’t become a clone just so you can get to the top of the social pyramid.

  [7] It will be tough at first, but if you show others that you are confident in yourself, I can tell you firsthand that they will become more accepting of the way you are.

MONEY – SAVING TIPS FOR DISNEY WORLD

Every time you visit Disney World, there’s something new to see. What began in 1971 as the Magic Kingdom now includes the high – tech, movie-mad Disney and Animal Kingdom . Each time the park expands(扩大), so do your chances to spend money. How can you save ? As a family guide to Disney World, I've been to the park more than 25 times with my kids , and I've developed a few money-saving tips for you.

●Buy the Five-Day All-in-One Hopper Pass. Even if you're visiting for fewer days , it's a deal (The pass costs $ 229 for visitors aged 10 and up , $ 183 for kids aged three to nine and is free for kids under age three). Without the pass , you'll have to pay separately for Pleasure Island and the water parks . A single trip to Blizzard Beach , for example , would cost a family of four $100.

  ● Dine out at Lunchtime. The prices at some of the nicer restaurants , especially those in Epcot's World Showcase , are much lower at noontime than at any other time. It's wise to make reservations(预定)before you leave home . Call 407-W-DISNEY .

 ● Become a Gold Card Member.  For $ 65 , you can get a Magic Kingdom Club Gold Card (call 1-800-56-DISNEY). Cardholders get up to 20% off Disney hotel rooms , plus prices on character breakfast , theme park tickets and goods from Disney stores .

 ● Don't Pay Extra to See a Character.  Character-theme dinner shows are expensive , costing a family of four about $ 140 , and even a character breakfast , where Mickey or Donald Duck joins you for cakes , can set you back $ 50. If your budget (预算) is tight, try to meet the characters inside the theme parks and at free in-park shows . You can watch the Diamond Horseshoe show , for example , in the Magic Kingdom for no additional cost , while the similarly themed Hoop-Dee-Doo Musical Revue needs expensive tickets .

 ● Wait Until the End of Your Trip to Buy Souvenirs.  By then , the kids will really know what they want , and you won't waste money on expensive things .

67.If you are short of money, the writer suggests you should not        .

         A.buy things for the kids from Disney stores.

         B.buy souvenirs at the beginning of the trip

         C.make a trip to Blizzard Beach

         D.have your meals out at noontime

68.Which of the following can be used in place of “set you back”

         A.offer you    B.save you    C.return you D.cost you

69.You should pay more money if you         .

         A.have a five – day All – One Hopper Pass while you’re visiting for four days.

         B.do not make a reservation for hotel rooms in advance..

         C.are not a Magic Kingdom Club Gold Card holder.

         D.have lunch at a restaurant in Epcot’s World Showcase

70.In the writer’s opinion, the better way of meeting the Disney cartoon character is        .

         A.to have a character breakfast

         B.to watch the Diamond Horseshoe show

         C.to pay separately for Pleasure Island and the water parks

         D.to attend the Hoop – Dee – Doo Musical Revue

  Here are a few tips we’ve put together to help you learn English well.

  Tip 1 Speak, speak, speak!

  Practise speaking as often as you can-even speaking to yourself is good practice.

  Try recording yourself whenever you can.Compare your pronunciation with the master version, see how you can do better and have another go.If you do this several times, you will find that each version is better than the last.

  Tip 2 Why not learn with someone else?

  It helps if you can learn with someone else.If you can persuade a friend or family member to study with you, it will make you keep working.Agree times to meet and set goals for the week, and test each other regularly.

  Tip 3 Don’t get stuck by a word you don’t know

  Ptactise improvising(即兴的)ways of getting your meaning across when speaking spontaneously(本能地), even if you don’t know the exact words or phrases.Think of things you might want to say whenever you have spare time.A basic example is the rise of tenses.If you don’t know the past tense but want to talk about yesterday, use the verb in the present tense and use the word for “yesterday”.Use facial expression, hand movements, anything to get your meaning across.

  Tip 4 Language learning is also about intuition(直觉)

  Guesswork is an important strategy in learning a new language.When listening to recorded material, you aren’t expected to understand everything first time round.If you play the same piece several times, you will most probably understand something new each time.Learn to make maximum use of all the clues you can pick up.For example, what do the speakers sound like? Happy? Angry? Calm? etc.

  Tip 5 Build up your vocabulary

  A wide vocabulary is the key to successful language learning but don’t try to learn too much at once.It’s best to study frequently, for short periods of time.Take a maximum of six or seven items of vocabulary and learn them.Put them into sentences to fix them in your mind, then come back to them later.Much of the vocabulary in the course is presented by topic.

  And above all, have fun!

Do you have such kind of  36 ? In a bus you may look at a  37 , but not too long. And if he is  38 that he is being stared at, he may feel  39 .
