Hey there,
So you’re about to spend four years of your life and tens of thousands of dollars of your parents’ money, and all you really know about college is that all of your friends are going. Do you ever stop to wonder why you’re going?
Relax. You’re making the right decision. First of all, you’ll discover what interests you by taking courses in many subjects. For example, it’s hard to decide if you want to be a painter if you’ve never painted any pictures; once you’re in a drawing-room on campus, you’ll know one way or the other. College is also a lot of fun—after you graduate, you’ll be working every weekday for 50 or so years. And remember that college graduates get about twice the income of those who never attended college.
Finding the right college can be difficult. Fortunately, Johnson Review is here to help you every step of the way.
Researching School. To us, the most important decision you’ll make is to choose the school that really fits you best---- not the one that is the most competitive or has the best-equipped rooms.
Applying to School. On JohnsonReview.com, you’ll find hundreds of actual college applications(申請(qǐng)) and links to many more.
Raising Your Scores. American College Test is one of the most important parts of the admissions(錄取) course. It’s not the most important, though, and not everyone needs to prepare for the best. But, if you think you can do better, find the right course for better scores.
Paying for School. Most families need financial aid for the high cost of college. The problem is that financial aid seems difficult to get and many families get caught up in the price of college. However, if you really do your research, you’ll learn that there are many ways to get financial aid and that you can afford to attend any college, no matter the cost.
For more information, call 600-3681 or visit Johnson Review.com, wherever you go, have a nice trip!

Why it’s cool: You’ve stayed at hotels made of brick or wood, but salt? That’s something few can claim.Tayka Hotel de Sal is made totally of salt—including the beds (though you’ll sleep on regular mattresses (床墊) and blankets).The hotel sits on the Salar de Uyuni, a prehistoric dried-up lake that’s the world’s biggest salt flat.Builders use the salt from the 4,633-square-mile flat to make the bricks, and glue them together with a paste of wet salt that hardens when it dries.When rain starts to dissolve the hotel, the owners just mix up more salt paste to strengthen the bricks.
Green Magic Nature Resort
Where: Vythiri, India
How much: About $240 a night
Why it’s cool: Ridding a pulley(滑輪)-operated lift 86 feet to your treetop room is just the start of your adventure.As you look out of your open window—there is no glass!—you watch monkeys and birds in the rain forest canopy.Later you might test your fear of heights by crossing the handmade rope bridge to the main part of the hotel, or just sit on your bamboo bed and read.You don’t even have to come down for breakfast—the hotel will send it up on the pulley-drawn “elevator”.
Dog Bark Park Inn B&B

Gamirasu Cave Hotel
Where: Ayvali, Turkey

                           These simple ways can increase your popularity(受歡迎度) and win you more friends, so why not try them?
● FOCUSING ON OTHERS   This will reduce any shyness you may have. You’ll be more relaxed and therefore more natural and fun. And you will get more good---people will love the fact that you’re paying attention to them while you don’t have to worry about what people think of you.
● LOOKING PEOPLE IN THE EYE   Making eye contact is very important because it shows you’re interested in them. If you let your eyes wander(游移) or keep looking over their shoulder, people will feel slighted, and they’ll like you less they would otherwise.
● ASKING QUESTIONS   Doing this gives you two advantages. It shows other people that you are indeed paying attention and that you consider what they are telling you important. Being sure to follow up when you’ve shared a conversation with someone about something important in his/her life, be sure to ask about it later. This shows that you listen and you care.
● MAKING AN EFFORT TO SMILE   A smile means acceptance, and that makes people open up to you. Make a conscious(有意識(shí)的) effort(努力) one day to smile at the people you stay or work with and watch how well they respond to you.
● BEING RELIABLE   People appreciate those who help them, and they quickly begin to hate those who don’t.
68. By fixing your attention on others, you will ______.
A. be more worried and tired            B. feel more confident
C. be paid less attention to               D. feel less liked
69. When having a conversation with people, you’d better NOT ______.
A. be open up to them                     B. fix your eyes on them
C. ask questions about them                    D. avoid looking at them
70. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?
A. Showing continuous care for others is appreciated.
B. Smiling at others can often be misunderstood.
C. Looking people in the eye will make them uncomfortable.
D. You don’t have to continue helping others if you don’t want to.
