It was the end of my first day as waitress in a busy New York restaurant. My cap had gone away, and my feet  36  . The loaded plates I carried  37  to be heavier and heavier. Tired and discouraged, I didn’t able to do anything  38  . As I made out a check for a family with several children who had changed their ice-cream  39  a dozen times, I was ready to stop. Then the father  40  at me as he handed me my tip. “Well done,”  he said, “you’ve   41  us really well.” Suddenly my tiredness  42  . I smiled back, and later, when the manager asked me how I'd like my first day, I said, “  43   !” Those few words of praise had  44  everything. Praise is like 45  to the human spirit; we cannot grow without it. And  46  ,while most of us are only too  47  to apply(應(yīng)用)to others the cold wind of criticism (批評), we are  48  to give our fellows the warm sunshine of praise. Why---when one word of praise can bring such  49 ?
It is strange haw chary (吝嗇) we are about praising. Perhaps it’s  50  few of us know how to accept it. It’s  51   rewarding (獎賞)to give praise in areas in which  52  generally goes unnoticed or unmentioned. An artist gets complimented (admired)for a glorious picture, a cook for a  53 meal. But do you ever tell your laundry manager how pleased you are when the shirts are  54 just right? In fact, to give praise  55  the giver nothing but a moment's thought and a moment's effort..

Everyone knows that you can study the English language for years and still not understand a
native speaker of English when you meet one. Everyone knows that native speakers say a lot of
things that you can't find in any dictionary. Well, here's a secret for you: a lot of British people
can't understand each other either!
There are different local accents across the UK, and a number of areas have several different dialects, that is, they have their own unique vocabulary and grammatical phrases. There were at least six different accents born to London the last time I counted.
Worse than that, it is not just where a person is born in the UK that decides their accent. For example, a language and its accents often vary across class or level of education. Another example is how language can differ among age groups in the UK. The words and pronunciation used by young people in the UK can be completely different compared with those used by adults. They are
creating a "yoof culture".
The word "yoof'”is an informal spelling of "youth". Some people don't consider "yoof' to be a positive term, since its pronunciation is easier and lazier than "youth". Other people see the term
as positive, because it describes how young people are creating their own language, concepts and
identity. When parents find it difficult to understand their children, the children can say more things without the examining of their parents. In this way, young people are starting to find freedom, independence and self-expression. Even though certain groups of society feel threatened
by "yoof culture", new words come and go like fashions.
Therefore, learners should not worry about communicating with native speakers so much. Even British people don't speak English properly! The UK no longer owns the English language.

You may admire both the romantic love story and the mysterious city of Rome in the movie Roman Holiday. If you are planning to visit Rome, here are some cultural dos and don’ts you should know.
Coffee Etiquette: Italian breakfast consists of pastry and a cup of Cappuccino or shot of espresso. If eaten outside of home, breakfast is always consumed standing up at the local bar. An espresso is not sipped; it is downed in one gulp. Cappuccino is generally a morning drink and is not drunk after noon by real Italians. A post-dinner espresso, however, is common practice.
Dinner Rules: It is expected for guests to arrive for dinner reservations at least fifteen minutes late. In many restaurants, printed menus are for tourists. Regular patrons know to ask for the daily specials, which typically feature the freshest ingredients. Bread, when served, is rarely accompanied by butter or olive oil.
Drink the Water: Rome has plenty of public water fountains, and real Romans (and their dogs) always drink directly from them. Many people also refill their water bottle from these fountains.
Mind the Traffic: Unless there's a traffic light, or you are in a crosswalk, don't expect cars to stop for you. Though crosswalks go first, in a car – crazy city, still you’d better keep cautious and walk cautiously.
Money: Always have some euros with you. Most major hotels, restaurants, and shops take credit cards, but many smaller operations either will either be unwilling to accept them for smaller purchases or do not accept credit cards at all. ATMs are available around the city and at the airports.
About Soccer: Most Italian men are passionate about their soccer. Arm yourself with some knowledge of Italy's soccer scene, and you will find ready conversation partners almost everywhere.
The Romans: The people here love to share their thoughts, opinions and emotions. They are creative, passionate, playful, occasionally rude or vain but always entertaining, and almost always good – humored.

Directions: Read the following passage. Complete the diagram by using the information for the passage.  Write NO MORE THAN THREE WORDS for each answer.
Losing weight is difficult, and keeping it off may be even harder. So Harvard researchers set out to determine exactly how much physical activity women need in midlife to avoid gaining weight as they age.
The researchers found that an hour of moderate activity a day — including such recreational activities as brisk walking, leisurely bicycling, ballroom dancing and playing with children — prevented women of normal weight from gaining more than five pounds over any three-year period. Half that amount of vigorous activity, like running, jogging or fast biking, will do the trick as well, they said.
Women who got the same amount of exercise but were heavier to start with were not able to avoid gaining weight, however. Neither were women of normal weight who got less than seven hours a week of moderate activity, according to the study, published in the March 24 issue of The Journal of the American Medical Association.
The average weight gain over the course of the 15-year study, which followed 34,079 healthy women with an average age of 54 at the beginning, was just over five pounds. The researchers did not take diet into account.
“It’s so hard to lose weight and maintain the loss, so whatever weight you are, you should try to stay that weight — that is a success,” said the paper’s lead author, Dr. I-Min Lee, an associate professor of epidemiology at Harvard School of Public Health.
But any amount of exercise is beneficial, she emphasized. “People shouldn’t just throw up their hands and say, ‘Sixty minutes? I can’t do that,’ and give up. Health is more than weight.”

One windy spring day, I observed young people having fun using the wind to fly their kites. Multicolored creations of varying shapes and sizes   36  the skies like beautiful birds dancing. As the strong winds blew against the kites, a string kept them under   37 .
Instead of blowing away with the wind, they arose against it to achieve great   38 . They __39  and pulled, but the restraining string and the clumsy tail kept them in tow (拖著), facing upward and against the   40 . As the kites struggled and trembled against the string, they seemed to say, “Let me go! Let me go! I want to be   41  !” They flew beautifully even   42  they fought the restraint of the string. Finally, one of the kites succeeded in getting   43  . “Free at last,” it seemed to say. “Free to fly   44  the wind.”
Yet freedom from restraint simply put it at the   45  of an unsympathetic wind. It flew up and down to the ground and   46  in a mass of weeds and string against a dead bush. “Free at last”, free to lie powerless in the dirt, to be blown   47  along the ground.
How much like   48  we sometimes are. The heaven gives us adversity (逆境) and restrictions,   49  to follow from which we can grow and  50  strength. Some of us resist the rules so hard that we never fly to reach the heights we might have   51 . We keep part of the rules and never   52  high enough to get our tails off the ground.

B．Stress matters．
C．Interpersonal relationships and stress．
D．The sense of humor and stress．
E．Choosing subjects to study．
F．Other characteristics typical of super．young people
How They Stay Young
76.________________
When Dr David Weeks，a clinical neuro-psychologist at the Royal Edinburgh Hospital in Scotland．wanted to look into the secrets of eternal（永久的） youth ，he advertised for subjects who looked younger than their age．An independent panel examined photographs of respondents，and selected 3,500 people who looked on average l2 to 14 years younger than their actual age to take part in the study．
77．________________
These subjects were studied for eight years．The main aim of the study was to discover whether environment or heredity had more effect on the ageing process．The conclusion was that genetic programming is the main factor．But the study also showed that avoiding stress can slow down the ageing process．
78．________________
Stress seems to have an immediate effect on appearance．A separate study of middle-aged women showed that women suffering form serious stress looked older in just a few months．Yet when the problem causing the stress was removed，they very quickly looked younger．
79．________________
Here is a list of the factors that Dr．Weeks found that allowed his subjects to lead less stressful lives than others．First，they tend to have happy relationships with their partners．These relationships are based on trust and empathy，and provide security and comfort when dealing with stressful problems．Secondly，they tended to avoid sources of hostility instead of allowing them to make them angry．
80．________________
Next, they seem to have a good sense of humor．They like to have fun，and are enthusiastically involved in a variety of hobbies．They also seemed less willing to conform to others’ ideas．They prefer to think for themselves．They tend to have a good attitude towards health and exercise as well．They avoid the sun，do not smoke, and eat a healthy diet．
So these are the secrets of the “ super-young”：a loving relationship．Regular exercise．a(chǎn) variety of hobbies，a healthy diet and avoidance of stress．

The Couch Surfing network is an online community stretching across the globe with over one and a half million members．The basic concept is to provide a platform for travelers to contact people who are willing to put them up free of charge．Travelers connect with potential hosts online and, if they like each other, exchange details to make further arrangements．
Basil is one traveler from Switzerland who is currently couch surfing with a Chinese host in Beijmg．"I thought staying in hostel is nice but you mostly meet foreigners and speak English．If you use Couch Surfing you have chance to meet people living here and really get a chance to know the life of the place you visit．" Basil was speaking during a regular meeting of the Beijing network of Couch Surfing with a membership of almost 2,000．
Although some people may have concerns about meeting complete strangers and giving them full access to your house, Beijing group member Fred Sharp from California says that the Couch Surfing community is one that generally attracts trustworthy people．
"I have never had a problem with guests。I'd say that this Couch Surfing community worldwide is a fairly trustworthy community Like I say, always be cautious, make sure that you read everyone's profile that you're considering hosting, and if it doesn't feel right just say 'no', it's ok．"
Originally launched in the US as a non-profit organization in 2004, Couch Surfing is growing fast across the world．China is no exception with around 30,000 members and hundreds more signing up each week．One of them is Beijing resident Hai Yan who joined in November 2009．She says the first time she hosted a guest was a very positive experience．"My first guest was from Italy He was very kind and helpful．He bought me a present from Italy, a handbag．It's a famous brand!"
As the organization grows from strength to strength, hotel owners across the world will be watching very closely and possibly thinking twice about raising their prices too high．

B
The trend in everyday conversation is to use grandiose（夸大的）words. “Outstanding” is new “good,” “amazing” is the new “OK”, and “huge” is the new “big.”
I was in a restaurant in Washington D.C. last weekend and every question I asked was answered with exaggeration.
Me: How is the salmon?
Sever: Fantastic!
Me: Does it come with rice?
Sever: Absolutely!
Would a “good” and a “yes” have been enough? Of course!
My father is an average-sized man. He hasn’t gained weight or height for the past 30 years. Therefore, his size remains the same. However, in the same amount of time, his T-shirt size has gone from small to medium to large to extra large.
The reason for the exaggerated word is clear: we are bored with our lives. We want the next –next thing now. Immediately!
And we also want others to think that we still care, that we can still be delighted, that we know that everything is just great. Even when deep inside we know it can’t be. Everything can’t be great.
I’m not a scientist, so many methods of proof leave little to be desired, or a lot to be desired, or an immensity（無限）.
Listen to the voices around you. Listen to your own voices. There is nothing on the radio that is good or bad , weather is either beautiful or horrible.
Listen, the next time when someone asks you something and you agree, because when you could simply say “yes”, instead you will say “absolutely ” or “without doubt” or “Oh, yeah, unquestionably—absolutely without doubt.”
Have people forgotten what it is like to be OK? Simply OK with what they have and who they are? If everything is outstanding, if everything is the most amazing thing ever, is anything ever amazing at all?
45．By telling his experience in the restaurant, the author intends to_______.
A．show his interest in exaggerated words
B．prove that exaggerated words are widely used
C．blame the restaurant for using exaggerated words
D．tell us the food in the restaurant is extremely good
46．What do we know about the author’s father?
A．He has gained height and is now a tall man.
B．He likes following the fashin in clothing.
C．His weight is getting greater and greater.
D．The size of his T-shirt is described in exaggerated words.
47．So many people like using exaggerated words because________.
A．they are not satisfied with being normal
B．they don’t want to be looked down upon by others
C．they want to be different from others
D．they are brave in telling their true feelings
48．According to the passage, if you approve of something, you’d better say “ ______ ”.
A．fantastic   B．perfect      C．OK   D．Absolutely
