In many parts of the world, university students work in the summer. They need money, and they can get some working experience. Traditionally, they get jobs as servers, cashiers, and lifeguards at swimming pools.

These days, however, more and more students are wording at dotcoms. Dotcoms are Internet-based companies which offer goods and services online. Todays young people already know a lot about computers, and they can quickly learn more. The pay is also usually much better than that at traditional summer jobs.

There are other advantages besides the pay. Students see dotcom jobs as a good start on their futures. In addition to providing good experience, the work is also enjoyable for most. On top of this, their co-workers treat them with respect.

Dotcoms are new and need new ways of thinking. Imagination and enterprise are more important than formal qualifications. So some students are even leaving school to start their own dotcoms.

 Body language shows all kinds of feeling, wishes and attitudes and is sometimes more important than spoken language.

 A smile is the universal facial expression―it is intended to put people at ease. It does not always mean that you are happy, however, A smile can hide other feelings, like anger, fear or worry 

In most countries, nodding the head up and down shows agreement, while shaking the head means that you do not agree, or that you refuse to do something.

 If you look away from a person or yawn, they may think you are not interested in them. If you stand holding your arms across your chest, you may be protecting yourself---just from a conversation you do not want! If you sit looking at and turn toward, the person you are talking to, it shows that you are interested. If you roll your eyes and turn your head away, most likely you do not believe what you are hearing, or you do not like what you hear.

 There are some differences in body language between cultures. It is important to give them attention.

 Many people wonder if our senses have something to do with our overall health. Scientists say that making the most of our senses when we are young can keep us healthy later on in life.

 One reason why we become stressed and have high blood pressure is that we misuse our senses in our everyday life. One study says that about 90% of our time is spent watching television or using computers. It adds that although our sense of sight is overused, our senses of touch and smell have been ignored.

 People often ask whether or not we should develop all our senses.

The answer is yes. Scientists suggest that we do the following things more often. While having dinner, listen to some enjoyable music rather than watch TV. While relaxing at home, have some flowers next to you that smell nice. Before going to bed, turn the lights down. While sleeping, wear a nightshirt that is pleasant to touch--it will make you sleep deeply. Whether we sleep well is important because good sleep gives us the chance to dream and dreams keep us young and healthy.

Questions:

(1) Do scientists think our senses have something to do with our overall health? How?

(2) What is one of the reasons why we become stressed and have high blood pressure?

(3) What do scientists suggest?

(4) Why should we wear nightshirts that are pleasant to touch while sleeping?

(5) What is the main idea of this passage?
