1．To tweet，or not to tweet？
A guide to the social networking/microblogging service Tewitter
SINCE its creation in 2006，Twitter，the social networking service，has taken cyber space by storm．At first glance it might seem like Facebook，but Twitter is in a league of its own，connecting people with fast-paced updates．It has become a place for activities，celebrities，businesses and everyday people to let others know about videos，opinions，interesting news，advertisements-and，yes what they are eating for lunch．
Twitter：n．a(chǎn) free social networking service that connects users through fast-paced status updates．Twitter-er：n．one who uses Twitter．Tweet：n．short updates or messages，of 140characters or less，wh ich are posted on your profile and sent to your followers．Retweet （RT）：n．unofficial Twitter feature that indicates a re-posting of a tweet from another user．Often uses the text RT@username （of the original source） before the post．Follower：n．one who receives another user's updates on his or her Twitter profile．Direct message：n．a(chǎn) private message sent from one Twitter-er to another．
The phenomenon includes a host of new vocabulary terms and concepts that every self-respecting Twitter-er should know．Here's a quick course on Twitter．
So you've finally been swept up by the techno-tide and gotten a Twitter account．But what to write？Who knew 140characters could be so overwhelming？
Darren Rowse of the TwiTip blog（www．twitip．com） recommends a two-step tweeting process：figure out what your follows want，and then give it to them．Some combination of cool links，conversation-starting quotes or questions，retweets and photos works well，Rowse writes．
Keep in mind that Twitter doesn't directly offer photo hosting．You will need to use a third-party site like TwitPic （www．twitip．com） to upload your photos．Other sites，like TwitVid （tweetdeck．com/beta） can be used to post videos．
If you th ink the Twitter Web Site too complicated，try a Twiiter client-Tweetdeck（tweetdeck．Com/beta） and the Mac-only Tweetie（www．stebits．com）are popular，and both also are available as iPhone apps（應(yīng)用程序）．
Even without an iphone，you can update you Twitter on the go．After adding your phone number to your Twitter account，you can text updates to 40404（check Twitter's Web site for numbers to use outside the United States）But no matter how you tweet，remember that people can see what you post，and Twitter might not be the best place to complain about your boss，even if you make your Twitter private，your followers may not share your sense of discretion．
Twitter is crowded with celebrith accounts．The famous，who once avoided the media in their private lives，are posting everything on Twitter for all the cyber world to see，gathering followers in the millions．Who's leading the celebrity pack？TwitterCounter（www．twittercounter．com），a site that tracks the most popular Twitter users，lists Ashton Kuntcher and former fashion model，as the nost popular Twitter-er with，as of our publication date，2，691，112followers．

12．Food makes us feel good，but some people eat when they aren't really hungry and eat to simply feel good．This kind of eating habit is called emotional eating，which does not affect adults but also young children．It isn't a good thing．
A child's eating habits can develop right from childhood．As we know，a baby cries out if he doesn't get milk at the usual time of the day．However，sometimes parents immediately stick a bottle in a child's mouth without trying to find out if the child is really hungry．In fact，children may cry for other reasons．Even as children grow up and start going to school，parents sometimes give them a chocolate bar if they become really unhappy．As the children further grow up，they may become used to having a snack whenever they're upset or low．
Therefore，they'd like to eat an emotional snack when they have the feeling of unhappiness and boredom．Even when they don't get high grades，aren't popular at school or made fun of by others，they will want something to eat．After having the snack，they feel a lot better．
Emotional eating in young children is a thing that needs to be taken seriously．To protect your children from emotional eating，you should satisfy your child's emotional needs in the best possible way．This includes spending time with your child every day，taking an interest in his school work，helping your child study，providing a health environment without tension at home，etc．Don't make the child lose face by scolding him．Develop confidence in your child．Make your child eat enough once in a while．Reward him for his achievements．
All this will help your little one develop a healthy eating habit．And always remember love and care is the key to help you child out of trouble and grow up happily．

Title：（71）Emotional Eating in Young Children
（72）Meaning/DefinitionEating for feeling good instead of for （73）hunger/being hungry/feeling hungry．

Causes		•forming the habit when （74）young/they are young
•feeling  （75）unhappy and bored
•feeling （76）less popular/unpopular and getting low grades
•being made fun of by others



（77）Solutions/Measures/Suggestions		•staying with your child for some time every day
•being （78）interested  in your child's studies and help him study
•providing a healthy environment without tension at home
•avoiding（79）scolding your child to make him ashamed
•making your child（80）confident/have/develop confidence/believe  in himself
•giving your child enough to eat once in a while
•giving your child reward for what he has achieved
ConclusionLove and care helps children out of trouble．

6．Joseph Pulitzer（April 10，1847-October 29，1911）was a Hungarian-American publisher best known for establishing the Pulitzer Prizes after death．
Pulitzer was born in Makó，Hungary．At 17，Pulitzer attempted to join the Austrian army．but was turned down due to age，bad health and poor eyesight．Disappointed but still with hope，he traveled first to Paris and then to London，hoping to join the army there．And he was rejected for the same reasons．Finally，he moved to the United States in 1846and served in the Lincoln Army when he was just 18until the end of the American Civil War．After the war he settled in St．Louis Missouri，where in 1868he started working as a reporter for a German-language daily newspaper，the Westliche Post fro﹩3，000．Then，in 1879，he bought the St．Louis Dispatch for﹩2，700and merged （合作） the two papers as the St．Louis Post-Dispatch，which remained St．Louis'daily newspaper．He bought the New York World in 1883，which turned out to be a successful decision，and which made Pulitzer wealthy．In 1885，he was elected to the U．S．House of Representatives，but resigned after a few months'service．In 1895the New York World introduced the first newspaper comic printed with color．Under Pulitzer's leadership circulation （發(fā)行量） grew from 15，000to 600，000，making it the largest newspaper in the country．But unfortunately from 1890，Pulitzer's already failing health worsened rapidly and he with drew from direct management of the newspaper，and simply gave some instructions from his vacation houses in Maine or in New York．At the ago of some instructions from his vacation houses in Maine or in New York．At the age of forty，he was struck blind，but he still continued to run his press empire for twenty-two more years．
In 1892，Pulitzer offered Columbia University's president money to set up the world's first school of journalism．But the university turned down the offer．In 1902，Columbia's new president willingly accepted the plan for a school and prizes，but it would not be until after Pulitzer's death that this dream would come true．Pulitzer left the university﹩2million in his will，which led to the creation in 1912of the Columbia University Graduate School of Journalism．And up till now，Columbia's Graduate School of Journalism still remains one of the most famous in the world．
Joseph Pulitzer died aboard his sailing boat in 1911．He was buried in the Woodlawn Cemetery in The Bronx，New York．In 1917．the first Pulitzer Prizes were awarded，as Pulitzer wished to．
