On the first day, when we were dancing and playing games, I noticed a boy under the tree who was small and thin. His shyness made him appear weak. I walked towards him, introduced myself and invited him to join in the activities and meet some new people. He quietly replied, "No, I really don't want to do this." I could understand that he was in a new world but I knew it wouldn't be right to force him, either. Actually, the boy didn't need a close talk but a friend.At lunch the next day, I was leading camp songs when I saw the boy under the tree sitting alone.I tried again with the same invitation, but he refused once again. That evening I was told the boy's name was Tommy. Then I asked the campers to pay special attention to the boy and spend time with him when they could.The days went by and the time came when we had to leave. We held a big, warm party to celebrate the closing of the camp. All the campers shared their wonderful moments. To my surprise. I found the boy from under the tree dancing joyfully with two girls. I couldn't believe it was the same person.In October of my second year, I received a phone call from Tommy's mother. She told me that Tommy was hit by a car and killed. I offered my deep sadness. The mother said: "Tommy mentioned you so many times. I want you to know that he went back to school and made new friends with confidence. You made a difference for Tommy during his last months."At that moment, I realized how easy it was to give a bit of yourself every day. You may never know how much each gesture may mean to someone else. I hope that everyone can pay attention to their own "boy under the tree".( ) 1.

It is also a great way to get rid of the unwanted things in your home, with a chance of making a little money for yourself.There are slight differences in running a 50/50 sale, but the result is the same: 50% of the money raised goes to the charity; 50% to the seller.One way is the auction（拍卖）. Sellers bring along their unwanted things a few hours before the sale to have them noted down: A little money is needed to enter the sale place. For more money they can keep a place for your unwanted things. They should decide how to deal with the things if theyare unsold: return to them or the charity. In order to attract more buyers for the auction, organizers should do something to please them; they can prepare drinks and a little entertainment for the crowd. The auction then starts. For each thing sold, 50% goes to the charity and 50% to the seller. Remember, this is in aid of charity, if you want to make more money, try eBay, and similar sites where may be some good bargains（讨价还价）to be found for a buyer.Another kind of 50/50 sale is just to put a price ticket on the thing. The selling price was decided by the seller --- sometimes with a little advice from the organizers, who may have more experience of these kinds of sale and know the price at which the things go for Methods of dealing with the nonsold things are to be agree ahead of time.So if you find a 50/50 sale near you, take your unwanted things along and get selling.( ) 1.In a 50/50 sale, people may have a chance of doing the following EXCEPT .A. buying some second-hand goodsB. getting some drinks for freeC. getting entertainmentD. bargaining with the sellers( ) 2.

You will never know who will buy your things.B. Half of the money for each thing sold will be donated to the charity.C. The things you don't like can be sold at the high price.D. The organizers will help you with the sale.( ) 4. If a car was sold for $2,040 in a 50/50 sale, the organizers, the charity and the seller will get_.A. 2040; 0 and $ 0B. 1020; 0 and $ 1020C. 0; 1020 and $102 0D. 1020; 1020 and $ 0( ) 5.

So, the way you speak is especially important. In fact, researchers have calculated that 80% of communication over the phone is through your tone of voice; and only 20% is from the words you use. Here are our top tips on how to speak over the phone.1．Facial ExpressionsYour facial expression can influence your voice. For example, if you smile, your voice will sound warm and friendly, just the opposite, if you have an angry look on your face' it can make 6you sound unpleasant.2．VolumeIf you speak too loudly, you could sound angry. And if you speak too softly, it'll be difficult to hear you. So, speak loudly enough to be heard clearly, but not so loud that you're shouting.3．PaceThe pace of your voice is how quickly you speak. And this can show how you feel. For example, an angry person might speak faster than normal. Or a downhearted person might speak very slowly. Try speaking a little more slowly than normal. This will make you sound confident, and it'll make it easier for the other person to understand you.4. GesturesGesturing can influence the tone of your voice. When you gesture, you bring more air into the lungs, which can make your voice sound warmer. Gestures are also useful to help you stress the right words or even find the words you need. The best thing about gesturing during a phone call is that no one can see what you're doing, so you can gesture as wildly as you like!5．MovementIf you're feeling nervous, stand up and move around.

In the English language, there are many expres sions using the word “mouth”. But some of them are not so nice.For example, if you say bad things about a person, the person might protest and say “Do not bad mouth me”.Sometimes when one person is speaking, he says the same thing that his friend was going to say. When this happens, the friend might say, “You took the wo rds right out of my mouth!”Sometimes a person has a bad or unpleasant experience with another person. He might say that experience “left a bad taste in my mouth”. Or the person has possibly had a very frightening experience, like being chased b y an angry dog. She might say, “I had my heart in my mouth”.Some people have lots of money because they were born into a very rich family. There is an expres sion for this, too. You might say such a person “was born with a silver spoon in his mouth”.This rich person is the opposite of a person who lives from “hand to mouth”. This person is very poor and only has enough money for the most important things in life, like food.( )46.When a man says "I had my heart in my mouth", usually he means he was ___________.A. excitedB. frightenedC. surprisedD. satisfied( )47.Your best friend Tony said what you were going to say, you might say,"_____________".A.
