If you think that all these factors have molded you into a person with a poor attitude towards life, there is no need to worry. 21Identify and understand what you want to change.The first step towards change is clearly understanding what needs to be changed. 22 When it comes to changing your attitude, you need to do an honest and in-depth self-evaluation so you could point out exactly which of your traits need to be improved or totally changed.23Find someone who has the kind of attitude that you want to have, and let his or her life give you inspiration and encouragement to move beyond your temporary failures in your journey towards becoming a better person.Choose the right company.As they say, “Bad company corrupts good character.” You don't expect yourself to be able to change if you go on surrounding yourself with people who possess all the negative traits that you want to change. Consider befriending new people, especially those who are optimistic and have a healthy attitude towards life. 24 Believe that you are able to change.25 If you don’t believe in yourself or believe that you or your life can change, it just won't happen—you will either never start, or give up quickly that you won't have even given yourself the opportunity to succeed.A.

Know about the company where you are trying to get a job. Find out what the company does and who their competitors are.2). 27 Most interviewers will ask a question relating to your strengths and weaknesses. Before the interview, examine the job you are applying for and determine the top skills needed for that position. For instance, if you are applying for a job as a telephone operator, it’s more i mportant that you have strong communication skills than that you are tidy.3). Have evidence. 28 But if you can tell the interviewer about a time you organized an event, it make the fact much more solid4). Prepare questions to ask about the company and the job.29 When you are under pressure, it can be difficult to think straight. Preparing before the interview will make it easier to give answers to those tough questions. But you can’t think of every question they might ask.30 Remember, first impressions are lasting.A. An interview is a stressful eventB. So relax and be confidentC. Good organizational skill are more than importantD. Know your competitorsE. Know yourselfF. Now all you need is the jobG. It’s easy to say you have good organiza tional skills(七)Successful female singers tend to have slim figures and pretty faces. But even if British singer Adele Adkins, 27, doesn’t quite fit into this image, it hasn’t stopped her from a smashing success. Adele’s album 25 sold 3.48 million copies in the first week of its release, making it the biggest-selling album of 2015. 31First and foremost, Adele’s voice plays the most important part in making her popular.32 As the Chicago Tribune commented, she sings about her personal struggles sincerely with emotional words that invite everyone into her world. The pain and longing in her songs satisfy a universal need for love. It is this sense of ‘we’ve been here before’ that makes Adele.But music is not all that matters. 33 In a comedy show, Adele was shown to be the one who could make quarrelling relatives at the Thanksgiving dinner table put their differences aside. She collected many life-long fans with her girl-next-door charm.34 Jillian Mapes wrote about this on the N ew York magazine site Vulture: “Adele is among the first plus-size female cultural idols(偶像)to reach the highest level of success without having to make herself the butt(笑柄)of fat jokes…She’s shaped like me and like two-thirds of American women.”35A. In other words, Adele sends a feminist (女权) message by being who she is.B. Adele is not just a woman but an everywoman.C. What is behind the soaring popularity?D. Adele’s hard work also matters.E. Do you want to know more about the life of Adele?F. Adele’s easy-going personality is also a plus.(八)Lifestyle changes are a process that takes time and requires support. Here are five tips from the American Psychological Association to help you make lasting, positive lifestyle and behavior changes.Make a plan that will stick.Your plan is a map that will guide you on this journey of change. 36 want to exercise more? Detail the time of day when you can take walks and how long you’ll walk. Write everything down, and ask yourself if you’re confide nt that these activities and goals are realistic for you.Start smallAfter you’ve identified realistic short-term and long –term goals, break down your goals into small, manageable steps that can be measured. If your long-term goal is to lose 20 pounds within the next five months, a good weekly goal would be to lose one pound a week. 37Change one behavior at a time.Unhealthy behaviors develop over the course of time, so replacing unhealthy behaviors with healthy ones requires time. Many people run into problems when they try to change too much or too fast. 3839Whether it is a friend, co-worker or family member, someone else on your journey will keep you motivated and accountable. Perhaps it can be someone who will go to the gym with you or someone who is also trying to stop smoking.Ask for support.Accepting help from those who care about you and will listen strengthens your commitment. If you feel unable to meet your goals on your own, consider seeking help from psychologists. Making changes takes time and commitment, but you can do it. 40 Minor missteps on the road to your goals are goals are normal and okay. Resolve to recover and get back on track.A. Find a partner.B. Communicating with your friends.C. When making your plan, be specific.D. Just keep it in mind that no one is perfect.E. To improve your success, focus on one goal or change at a time.F. By taking steps gradually you’ll feel successful in meeting your goal.G. Careful planning means setting small goals and taking one step at a time.(九)Much meaning can be conveyed clearly with our eyes, so it is often said that eyes can speak. 41 In a bus you may look at a stranger, but not for too long. And if he sensed that you are staring at him, he may feel uncomfortable.The same is true in our daily life. If you are stared at for more than necessary, you will look at yourself up and down to see if there is anything wrong with you. 42 . Eyes do speak, right?Looking too long at someone may seem to be rude and aggressive. 43 . If a man stares at a woman for more than 10 seconds and refuses to look away from her, his intentions are obvious. He wishes to attract her attention, and let her know that he is admiring her.However, when two persons are engaged in a conversation, the speaker will only look into the listener’s eyes from time to time to make sure that the listener does pay attention to what the former is speaking. 44 If a speaker looks at you continuously when speaking as if he trying to control you, you will feel awkward. A poor liar usually expose s himself by looking too long at the victim. He wrongly believes that looking straight in the eye is a sign of honest communication. 45Actually, eye contact should be made based on specific relationship and situation.A. On the contrary, it will give him away.B. Do you have such a kind of experience?C. That’s what normal eye contact is all about.D. Actually, continuous eye contact is limited to lovers only.E. After all, everybody likes to be stared at for quite a long time.F. But things are different when it comes to staring at the opposite sex.G. If nothing goes wrong, you will feel annoyed at being stared at that way.(十)How Not to Be AwkwardNot at all us are outgoing and ready to take the world by storm. 46 This usually happens when a person is still in his or her teen years and going through the socialization process. So, what can a person do to overcome this tendency to be awkward? Let’s try to find answers to the questions.Stay in shape and dress up wellSometimes, awkwardness could be due to being overweight. When you are large in size, you tend to get very self-conscious. So, in order to avoid this, get into the habit of exercising every day. 47 If you look as if you have just stepped out of a 1980’s film when actually it is 2011, there is no doubt that you are bound to feel awkward about yourself?Be optimisticAnother effective tip on how not to feel awkward is to always keep a smile on your face. 48 On the other hand, a smiling, happy and positive think person is appreciated by everybody. So, smile when you meet acquaintances or even strangers, say a cheerful “Hi!” and automatically some of your awkwardness will disappear completely!Participate in team activitiesThis one really helps. Awkwardness generally develops when a person remains isolated from others. So ,in order to change this situation, join groups. 49 Joining people in book reading sessions as well as debates will help remove your awkwardness. Choose any activity of your choice, such as playing team sports or joining a dance class, and soon you will find your comfort level around people increasing day by day!Develop your personalityBeing a book-worm or an Internet addict will not get you anywhere. For self-improvement, take up a hobbythat adds meaning to your life. Learn singing or try adventure sports. 50A. Learn how to end a conversation.B. Secondly, have appropriate clothes on.C. For instance, if you are a reading lover, join a book club.D. If you look sad, nobody will actually like being with you.E. Something as simple as listening to music will do wonders too.F. Many among us are shy and may even feel kept apart from others.G. Awkwardness could be because you do not have anything in common to talk about.高中英语七选五专项练习及解析(时间:100分钟,满分:100分)(一)1----5 E C B G D(二)6----10.F A G C E(三)11----15 C F E D G(四)16----20.F C G A D(五)21----25.B C A F E(六)26----30 F E G A B(七)31----35 C G F B A(八)36----40 C F E A D(九)41----45 B G F C A(十)46----50 F B D C E。

In the West, for instance, consumerism, the belief that it’s a good thing to use a lot of goods and services, is often to blame for food waste. 3 Chinese people are well known for being hospitable and generous. Many even feel that they lose face if their guests have eaten all the food. On campus, a generation of single children is less aware of the foodwaste issue. Students nowadays are well protected by their families and hardly have any concept of how much toil (辛劳) others go through in order to provide them with the food they eat.4 There are over 925 million hungry people in the world, most of whom live in underdeveloped countries and areas.

You can use these moments to learn from them, preparing yourself for when you're off on your own. It's OK to get angry but angry actionsdon't help you or your parents. Act calmly, cool off, write down your feelings, or talk to a friend. 2Obey their requests. It will make your attitude better and earn you more respect from them. It may seem like you are going through hell when you don't get what you want or you have to clean. However, you had better remember they keep a roof over your head when it's cold, raining, snowing, or too hot.

The three steps are:Get the factsWhy is it so important to get the facts Unless you have the facts, you can’t possibly attempt to solve your problem intelligently. Without the facts, all you can do is wondering around in confusion. It is not an easy job to get facts. When you are worried, your emotions are riding high. 36 .When trying to get the facts, you can pretend that you are collecting this information not for yourself but for some other person. 37 You can also pretend that you are a lawyer preparing to agree. Try to get all the facts both on your side and the other side of the case. You will generally find the truth lies somewhere in between.38Whenever you are worried, write down the questions that make you worry. And write out all the various steps you could take and then the probable consequences of each step. For example, what am I worrying about What can I do about it Here is what I’m going to do about it. After c arefully weighing all the facts, you can calmly come to a decision.Act on that decision.39 How can you break the worry habit before it breaks you Crowd worry out of your mind by keeping busy. Plenty of action is one of the best ways to cure worry. 40 If you know a situation is beyond your power, say to yourself: “ It is so; it can’t be otherwise.”Don’t permit little things to ruin your happiness. Try to cultivate a mental attitude that will bring you peace and happiness.A. Accept what can’t be avoided.B. Analyze the facts.C. There comes a time when you must decide and never look back.D. But here are two ideas that can help you see the facts in a clear and objective way.E. Unless you take your action, all your face-finding and analysis is a sheer waste of energy.F.

七选五专项练习10篇一Mondays are kind of annoying. __1__ A recent survey says that most people get the pre work “Sunday blues”. Starting your Monday feeling sad, anxious and unorganized is hardly the way to kick off a healthy week.The solution? Set aside a little time on Sunday to purposefully prepare yourself for the five days ahead, suggests women's health expert Marsha Hudnall. __2__Do some meal preparations.Figuring out what to have for dinner on weeknights can be surprisingly stressful. Stretching out a menu plan on Sunday and swinging by the grocery store for ingredients will help you eat well. Go a step further by chopping and cooking vegetables and a protein (like a roast chicken or scrambled eggs). 3 Or finally attempt a different diet you've been meaning to try. For easy dinner planning, just order, and you'll have a week's worth of raw materials for delicious and healthy meals.Start a Sunday stress-relief habit.“To be healthy, we have to take care of body and mind,”says Hudnall. Stress has a major impact on health and our ability to concentrate. __4__ Four ideas to try: a guided meditation with the help of an app; forest bathing—a practice known as shinrinyoku in Japan, which basically means taking a long walk or hike in a wooded area; gentle exercise like yoga; or time cuddling and playing with your pet.__5__Why not prepare your favorite clothes for Monday? Studies show that what you wear can have a significant effect on your mood. So make Monday the day you wear your favorite clothes or show the latest addition to your wardrobe (衣橱). It's also a good idea to get some nice coffee or music ready, which will give you something to look forward to on your Monday commute.A. Give yourself something to look forward to on Monday.B. Then all you have to do is heat when you come home from work.C. Even Sunday afternoons turn sour as we think of the workweek ahead.D. Therefore, starting a Sunday stress-relieving habit can begin a week feeling strong and focused.E. Try creating a relaxing and winding down Sunday night so that you can recharge and get ready for Monday.F. Taking on just a few of these simple tips every Sunday will help you launch a productive, less stressful week.G. Waiting until the last moment to do weekend chores like paying bills or doing laundry can leave you anxious and stressed on Sunday.二Behind every great product is a great team.Teamwork in the workplace offers the staff the opportunity to become more familiar with each other and learn how to work together. 1 .There are several ways in which teamwork is important to the success of the company and to the development of each employee.Efficiency(效率)Workteams develop systems that allow them to complete tasks efficiently. 2 ,the team's work pace makes sure that the task is completed quickly and accurately.This allows the company to take on more work and also lets the company increase more income without having to add more staff.This becomes helpful when efficient teams from different departments work together.Support3 .And a strong team environment can act as a support system for staff members.Workgroup members can help each other improve performance and work together toward improving professional development.Team members come to rely on each other and trust each other.4 ,these bonds can be important.IdeasTeams in the workplace often meet to discuss how to deal with company problems.When a team works well together,it allows staff members to feel more comfortable in offering suggestions.Team members become accustomed to processing brainstorming information. 5 .A.There are challenges each day in any workplaceB.When the team faces a particularly hard challengeC.We all know teamwork helps companies earn more moneyD.When a task is handed to a well trained and efficient teamE.It is also the fuel that allows employees and companies to have success F.The company surely benefits from various suggestions given by efficient teams G.One of the main benefits of a strong team environment is to share ideas with eachother三Three in five people in the UK hold a library card.For some,libraries are a shelter from the stresses of day-to-day life. 1 If you're considering joining your local library,now is the time to do so.And if you need any more encouragement,here are several reasons why you should.Most libraries in the UK allow members of the general public to come and go as they like. 2 You can also take out a library card and borrow books for free,although you will inevitably face a fine for late returns.3 Imagine just how many books you have at your finger tips with a library card.There are lots of modern ones,as well as original ones,and you can continue to expand your learning and vocabulary all the time.It's a priceless experience,especially for kids,and also a great way to level the educational playing field.Libraries develop with times.They have changed greatly since decades ago. 4 Some libraries have apps so you can see when your books are due back and even reserve books in some cases.There are also libraries which let you access books in digital formats on your mobile device—pretty cool.Libraries are one of very few spaces left in towns and cities where members of the public can come together and actually be and feel like a community.They have notice boards to offer services like exercise classes or learning centers. 5 A.Libraries help people learn.B.Libraries help educate the kids.C.They create a great sense of community.D.You can go in,settle down and read a book without being charged a penny.E.Most libraries now have computers and allow people to borrow CDs and DVDs.F.Libraries help us save money as we're borrowing books rather than buying them.G.For others,particularly the homeless and people in poverty,a lifeline to the world.四Gratitude is not only an art performed in daily life,but also part of our traditional virtue.Has your mother or friend told you that you're an ungrateful person?

Here are some tips to make us live happily.Don't avoid or ignore negativity.1 This can include people in your life who may be bringing you down,a hostile workplace environment or even a personal stressor that you haven't conquered quite yet. You are in control of your environment and if these negative situations keep making an appearance,it's up to you to handle them.Take care of yourself and your needs.In order to live a powerful and meaningful life,you must love yourself. Take care of your actions and how you live each day,and this will be reflected in your thoughts and emotional state of mind. 2Mend what's broken or get rid of it.Determining what is worth your time and effort and what can be challenging.If situations are beyond repair,it's time to let go. Are there relationships or friendships that remain damaged but you know are worth the time? 3 Do what you can to find love in situations where it may have be absent in the past.4Giving our time,energy,love and sometimes money is what life is about. 5 My mom taught me a quote she learned in Mexico that stuck with me forever,“donde come uno,comen dos.(where one can eat,two can eat.)”It moves me every time I say it out loud. At the end of the day,no matter what you have you are likely in a position to give something small to someone else who needs it.

They serve some sort of purpose,teach you a lesson or help figure out who you are or who you want to become.You never know who these people may be:your classmate,neighbor,teacher,long-lost friend or even a real stranger.But 1 ,you know that at that very moment they will affect your life in some serious way.2 .However,on reflection you realize that without getting over them you would have never realized your potential ability and strength.Everything happens for a reason and nothing happens by chance or with good or bad luck. 3 .Without these small tests,life would be like a smooth road to nowhere. The people affecting your life,and the successes and failures you experience,help to create who you are and who you become.Even the bad experiences can be learned from. In fact,they are probably the most important ones.If someone hurts you, forgive them, 4 .5 ,for you may never be able to experience it again. Talk to people you have never talked to before,and really listen. You should set your sights high,hold your head up,tell yourself you are a great individual and believe in yourself. Create your own life and then go out and live it with absolutely no regrets.Most importantly, if you love someone, tell him or her, for you never know what tomorrow may have in store.A.when you look eyes into themB.because you are likely to get addicted to themC.Don't forget to embrace those unpleasant momentsD.Make every day count and appreciate every momentE.Illness,injury and love all occur to test the limits of your soul F.Sometimes things happening to you may seem challenging at firstG.for they have helped you learn about trust and the importance of being cautious八Ways to Get Your Kids into NatureBeing in nature for kids has tremendous health benefits.There are many ways you can incorporate nature into your children's lives,even if you live in the city.Inspire curiosity by being curious yourself. A parent's excitement can be spread to the children, and when you show respect for nature,your children follow suit. 1 .“I don't know!Let's find out together.”is a wonderful way to get the ball rolling. Be open to a mutual adventure and allow your curious inner child to come out while you explore nature with your children.2 .If you have to carpool(拼车) in the morning,turn off the devices instead and encourage your children to look out of the window. The early morning fall skies are beautiful with color and migrating birds.After all,even views of nature from the car window are calming and beneficial.Stop thinking about nature time as leisure time. Time in nature is an essential investment in your children's health and well-being. If you view nature time as essential to good health,you will be more likely to engage in it. 3 ,nurturing creativity and wonder is part of your responsibility as parents.Look at the stars. Visit your local observatory,and then drive out of the city some morning or evening for your own stargazing(天体观察) with a blanket and telescope. Observing the stars offers a deeper and wider understanding of the universe. 4 .Plant a small garden. 5 .Bean and pea plants grow quickly and can be eaten when mature,so teach your children about food and the wonder of growth.A.Limit electronic devices while drivingB.Encourage questions you don't know the answers toC.If you want to raise your healthy,well-balanced childrenD.If you have the space, help your children plant a few vegetablesE.It will teach teamwork, pride in the community,and family togetherness F.If your child is interested, encourage him to get involved in the community G.Allow yourself to think about it, and talk to your children about that wonder九Everyone complains. Even if you argue that you are the happiest person in the world,you still complain sometimes. Sometimes you complain with out even realizing it,but rarely is it ever helpful. 1 Here are some tips to stop complaining and give up the negative thoughts.2When you find yourself thinking or saying a negative comment about something or someone,stop and force yourself to say something positive instead.Seek the help of a cheerful friend to change you when you complain and help you to see the positive in the situation.Make a list of things you are grateful for.You often complain about the things you don't have with out noticing those things you already have. Be grateful for what you have in your life because you are lucky simply for being yourselves. 3Learn to adapt to the changes.There are many things you can't change. 4 Always find the positive side of each situation,regardless of however difficult the situation is.With parents' and friends'support,you can survive any life changes.Allow yourself to vent(发泄) your feelings every once in a while.Constantly ignoring negative thoughts could add up.If you are really going through a rough time,don't be afraid to share your feelings with a close friend or family member or see a therapist.Find what makes you happy.5 Maybe it is time to make the hard decision to move on the another job or career. Uncover what your biggest complaints are about and see if you can change the situation to make you happy.

Laughter helps relieve pain, strengthen the immune system and reduce stress. Laughter stimulates(激发) hormoneswhich make us feel happy. Laughter also increases the flow of blood throughout the body and has benefits which are similar to the ones you get by doing exercise.2 . Children exposed to funny films and cartoons before major medical procedures are able to cope better with pain and anxiety.3 . These are professional clowns who are sent to hospitals and wards to entertain and distract sick children.Laughter therapy has become very popular in recent years and as a result, more and more laughter clubs are starting to open up in cities and towns all over the world. At a laughter session, a trained therapist instructs the group to perform a series of exercises which are designed to produce laughter. 4 . And it takes them some time to get rid of their inhibitions(心理抑制). They might even start off with fake laughter, but this doesn’t matter because our bodies can’t tell the difference, and the results are the same. Moreover, laughter is contagious(传染的). 5 .So next time you feel ill, stressed out or depressed, try watching a funny film or try remembering an amusing incident in your life. You will soon feel better.A.If one person starts giggling, it is unavoidable that everyone else will be drawn in.B.Laughter helps you focus.C.This finding has led to so-called clown doctors.D.In fact, research done by scientists has shown that laughter has a lot of health benefits.E.

However, a change in food is one of the main differences between life in ancient times and that of tod They did not have milk or any other dairy products, and they made very little use of grains.4___ 5 But scientists say that we would be much healthier if we eat much the same way the ancient people did, cuttingFor the rest of March, a disease will sweep across the US. It will keep kids home from school. 1 Employees will suddenly lose their ability to concentrate. The disease, k n own as ―March Madnessǁ, refers to the yearly 65 –nown as ―March Madnessǁ, refers to the yearly 65 – team US men’s college basketball tournament (锦标赛). __2 Teams Teams compete compete compete against against against each each each other other other in in in a a a single single single –– elimination (单局淘汰) ) tournament tournament tournament that that that eventually eventually eventually crowns crowns crowns a national a national champion. Nearly 20 million Americans will find themselves prisoners of basketball festival madness. The fun comes partly from guessing the winners for every game. Friends compete against friends. 3 Colleagues against bosses. Big – name schools are usually favored to advance into the tournament. But each year there are dark horses from littl –known universities. This adds to the madness. Watching a team from a school with 3,000 students beat a team from a school with 30,000many Americans, is an exciting experience.

And if there is, can it affect how a nation succeed or fail? At least one group of people is certain that it can. A recent survey of the top 500 entrepreneurs (企业家) in the UK found that 70% felt that their efforts were not appreciated by the British public. Britain is hostile (敌意的) to success, they said. It has a culture of jealousy(嫉妒). 1 Jealousy is sometimes known as the ―green – eyed monsterǁ and the UK is its home.Scientists at Warwich University in the UK recently tested this idea. They gathered a group of people together and g each an imaginary amount of money. 2 Those given a little were given the chance to destroy the large amount of money given to others – but at the cost of losing their own. Two thirds of the people tested agreed to do this. __3 . But But there there there is is is also also also opposite opposite opposite evidence. evidence. evidence.

But the Queen has perfected the art of appearing to enjoy her meal without actually eating much.During one visit to the Pacific islands of Tonga, a specially-prepared dinner was arranged in a hut made of wood and bamboo leaves. Deep holes were dug in the ground, filled with hot stones and baby pigs, and the pigs were slowly baked over several days.

So she depended on her old favorite trick of talking with her host. , King Tupou IV, carrying on a warm conversation.

(一)Hollywood movies are regularly filled with sex and violence. They can be exciting films but sometimes all you want is a little light-hearted entertainment.Have you heard of Bollywood? All singing, all dancing and unrealistic, it is the perfect alternative to normal Hollywood movies. Bollywood is the Indian film industry, based in Mumbai, formerly known as Bombay. 1 Yet Bollywood is the largest producer of films in the world. This year the Indian Filmgare Awards, Bollywood's Oscars, turn 50 years old.The typical Bollywood movie usually has the following ingredients: a cup of romance, a tea-spoon of comedy, a dash of international sight-seeing, served with a huge slice of singing and dancing. There will also be one brave hero, one beautiful heroine and one baddie. 2Bollywood films are full of ideal things and free of daily worries. 3The actors change clothes and locations within a single song. But the audience don't mind. T o Indian movie lovers, especially the poor, such films are a gateway to heaven and the stars are their gods. The films take them to a magical world away from their everyday troubles. The films tell them the impossible is possible and that true love conquers all.4Behind the beautiful scenes, Bollywood still emphasizes traditional family values. In most films, if two lovers want to break an arranged marriage, they can't just run away. They must win over their parents.Bollywood is a decent refreshing replacement for those over-stimulating Hollywood films. 5They will take you to a brighter, cheerier and more colorful world, where it's still cool to dance around a tree and sing a love song. A.Bollywood has gradually won its reputation on the world stage.B.There is never any mention of politics, poverty or war.C.Most Chinese school kids have probably never seen an Indian film. D.Bollywood films are mostly comic romances with light-hearted incidental music.E. Bollywood pays great attention to traditional values.F.The result is a fun-filled musical.G.So if you're tired of all that Hollywood actions, check out the following Bollywood films.(二)The Internet has opened up a whole new online world for us to meet, chat and go where we’ve never been before.But just as in face to face communication, there are some rules of behavior that should be followed when on line. 1 Imagine how you’d feel if you were in the other person’s shoes.For anything you’re about to send: ask yourself, “Would I say this to the person’s face?”If the answer is no, rewrite and reread. 2If someone in the chat room is rude to you, your instinct (本能) is to fire back in the same manner. But try not to do so. 3 If it was caused by a disagreement with another member, try to fix the situation by politely discussing it. Remember to respect the beliefs and opinions of others in the chat room.4 Offer advice when asked by newcomers, as they may not be sure what to do or how to communicate. When someone makes a mistake, whether it’s a stupid question or an unnecessarily long answer, be kind about it. If it’s a small mistake, you may not need to say anything. Even if you feel strongly about it, think twice before saying anything. Having good manners yourself doesn’t give you license to correct everyone else.5 At the same time, if you find you are wrong, be sure to correct yourself and apologize to those that you have offended.It is not polite to ask others personal questions such as their age, sex and marital status. Unless you know the person very well, and you are both comfortable with sharing personal information, don’t ask such questions.A. It’s natural that there some people who speak rudely or make mistakes online.B. Repeat the process till you feel sure that you’d feel comfortable saying the words to the person’s face.C. Everyone was new to the network once.D. The basic rule is simple: treat others in the same way you would want to be treated.E. When you send short messages to a person online, you must say something beautiful to hear.F. You should either ignore the person, or use your chat software to block their messages.G. If you do decide to tell someone about a mistake, point it out politely.(三)Before going outside in the morning, many of us check a window thermometer(温度计)for the temperature. This helps us decide what to wear. _____1____. We want our food to be a certain coldness in the refrigerator. We want it a certain hotness in the oven. If we don’t feel well, we use a thermometer to see if we have a fever. We keep our rooms a certain warmth in the winter and a certain coolness in the summer.Not all the thermometers use the same system to measure temperature. We use a system called the Fahrenheit scale. But most other countries use the Centigrade scale.Both systems use the freezing and boiling points of water as theirguide._____2_____ .The most common kind of thermometer is made with mercury(水银)inside a clear glass tube. As mercury (or any other liquid ) becomes hot, it expands. As it getscolder, it contracts(收缩). That is why on hot days the mercury line is high in the glass tube._____3______.First. T ake a clear glass juice bottle that has a cap ; fill the bottle with coloured water. T ap a hole in the center of the cap using a hammer and thick nail. Put the cap on the jar. Then stick a plastic straw(吸管) through the nail hole.______4______.Finally. Place a white card on the outside of the bottle and behind the straw. Now you can see the water lever easily.______5____.As the temperature goes down, the water will contract, and the lever in the straw will come down. Perhaps you will want to keep a record of the water lever in the straw each morning for a week.A.We use and depend on thermometers to measure the temperature of many other thingsin our daily lives.B.Thermometers measure temperature, by using materials that change in the same waywhen they are heated or cooled.C.Now that you know this rule you can make a thermometer of your own that will work.D.The water will rise in the straw. As the temperature of the air goes up, the water willexpand and rise even higher.E.They label these in different ways. On the Fahrenheit scale water freezes at 32 degrees and boils at 212 degrees. On the Celsius scale water freezes at 0 degrees and boils at 100degrees.F.T ake wax (you may use an old candle if you have one) and melt some of it right where the straw is struck into the cap to seal把..粘住) them together.G.People use thermometers which are made by themselves when travelling around theworld.(四)_ 1 _ One of the best things you can possibly do is to start you own club.It’s great fun especially if you are the sort of person who feels there’s never anything to do during the school holidays.The first thing you need to come up with is an idea for your club._2 _ Pets, clothes, pop music or dancing groups, sports, making things? The list is endless.Next you need some friends to be in your club with you. 3 _ All you need is three or four other people who are interested in the same thing as you.4 You should all sit down somewhere together with lots of pieces of paper and write down every name you can think up.That’ll keep you busy for ages.At your first meeting you should make up a rule book.And the first rule should be no grown-ups or little/big brothers or sisters! The best clubs are always secret! Now you have just about everything you need, except membership cards.These are very important and again you can speed a lot of time making them. 5 Why not leave some space for a photo of yourself?
