A lack of self-respect can prevent you from fulfilling your potential and developing healthy relationships. Here are some steps to help you know how to respect yourself.

1.__________ The qualities that we respect vary from person to person, and the way we express it varies from culture to culture. Generally, we respect people who have more experience and are more accomplished than ourselves. But there is also a basic level of respect that most people will agree is a right, and does not need to be earned. So think about what it means to respect others. Here are some widely agreed-upon signals of respect: You don’t steal from, harm, or insult them; you are honest with them; you listen to what they say, consider their opinions, and avoid interrupting them.

2.__________ We often do things for ourselves that we would never dream of doing for someone we care about. Whatever you believe to be respectful, apply it to yourself. Don’t harm yourself. Don’t insult yourself. Don’t steal from yourself. Be honest with yourself. Develop your own opinions and don’t be afraid to stand by them.

3.__________ A person with self-respect doesn’t allow others to treat them badly, and would rather not be around someone who is disrespectful. This might seem obvious, but there are many times when we accept being treated badly. When someone doesn’t give you basic respect, you need to be able to say, in one way or another, “You just disrespected me and that’s not acceptable!

If you don’t respect me, I won’t spend time with you any more.” Can you say that, and mean it?

Can you turn your back on someone who’s clearly shown that they don’t respect you? Once you do, you’ll feel your sense of self-respect go up.

4.__________ When you make an effort to keep your body in good working order, you’ll not only feel better physically, but also feel a sense of pride. Respecting your body also means not insulting it for what it is, naturally. Make an effort to get fit and stay healthy. Focus on the things you can change and improve, and do them because it feels good.

5.__________ The more you know about yourself, the more you’ll see and appreciate how unique you really are. And you’ll respect yourself more. Discover your principles, personality, and talents. Stop waiting for other people’s approval and start developing your own standards. Develop a unique and original way of expressing your opinions while at the same time being a good listener.

A. Get to know yourself.

B. Take care of your body.

C. Practice basic respect towards yourself.

D. Be honest with yourself and with others.

E. Think about what it means to respect someone.

F. Recognize when people disrespect you and take steps to stop it.

Down-to-earth means being honest，open，and easy to deal with．It is a pleasure to find someone who is down-to-earth．A person who is down-to-earth is easy to talk to．He or she accepts others as equals．A down-to-earth person may be an important member of society，of course，but they do not let their importance go to their heads，and they do not consider themselves to be better than others who are less important．Someone who is filled with self-importance and pride，often without cause，is said to have his nose in the air．There is no way a person with his nose in the air can be down-to-earth．

Americans use another expression that is similar in some way to down-to-earth．The expression is both feet on the ground．Someone with both feet on the ground is a person with a good understanding of reality．He has what is called common sense．He may have dreams but he does not allow them to block his knowledge of what is real．The opposite kind of person is one who has his head in the clouds．A man with his head in the clouds is a dreamer whose mind is not in the world．Sometimes such a dreamer can be brought back to reality；sharp words from the teacher，for example，can usually get a daydreaming student to put both feet back on the ground．

The person who is down-to-earth usually has both feet on the ground．But the opposite is not always true．Someone with both feet on the ground may not be as open and easy to deal with as someone who is down-to-earth．When we have both our feet firmly on the ground，we are realistic and we act honestly and openly toward others，and our lives are like the ground below us，solid and strong．

A．is down to the earth

B．a(chǎn) man with his head in the clouds is often not intelligent

C．the opposite direction is always wrong

D．a(chǎn) person who has both feet on the ground may not be down-to-earth

The secret of carrier pigeons' unbelievable ability to find their way home has been discovered by scientists: the feathered navigators follow the roads just like we do.

Scientists at Oxford University spent 10 years studying homing pigeons using global positioning satellite (GPS) and got a surprising result. The birds often don't use the sun to decide their directions. Instead, they fly along motorways, turn at crossings and even go around roundabouts (繞道) , adding miles to their journeys.

“It really has knocked our research team sideways to find that after a decade-long international study, pigeons appear to ignore their inbuilt directional instincts (本能) and follow the road system,” said Prof Tim Guilford, reader in animal behavior at Oxford University's Department of Zoology.

Guilford said pigeons use their own navigational system (導(dǎo)航系統(tǒng)) when doing long distance trips or when a bird does a journey for the first time.

“But once homing pigeons have flown a journey more than once, they can fly home on a habitual route, much as we do when we are driving or walking home from work,” said Guilford.

“In short, it looks like it is mentally easier for a bird to fly down a road. They are just making their journeys as simple as possible.”

1. What would be the best title of the passage?

A. Birds Follow Roads as We Do.

B. Why Pigeons Can Fly Long Distance?

C. How Pigeons Find Their Ways Home?

D. Why Crows Fly the Shortest Distance?

2.What does the underlined words "the feathered navigators" refer to?

A. The pigeons.

B. The crows.

C. Dogs.

D. Animals that can swim.

3.Scientists used to think that homing pigeons often find their directions _______.

A. by global positioning satellite

B. by the sun

C. by the road system

D. by following other birds

A new Australian research indicates that children with a stutter (結(jié)巴) do not suffer disadvantages at school, More than ten percent of children have a stutter by the age of four but they score just as high as other children on tests designed to judge their language, thinking skills and character.

Professor Reilly’s team studied over 1600 children from Melbourne, Australia. Their mothers had been filling out regular questionnaires since their babies were eight months old and the children were judged by a range of language and behaviour tests when they reached the age of four. Reilly and her colleagues asked the parents to call the study group if their children started showing signs of stuttering. Diagnoses were confirmed by a researcher, who then visited the homes of children with a stutter every month to check on their progress.

By the age of four, 181 of the children studied had been diagnosed with a stutter. Follow-up visits to the 181 children who were judged after diagnoses showed just nine no longer had a stutter one year later. Stuttering children scored 5. 5 points higher than that of their non-stuttering children on language tests and 2. 6 points higher on the test of non-verbal intelligence. The researchers said it was possible that stuttering could improve language skills, or that stuttering could result from very fast language development among some children.

The research suggests parents of children who stutter are usually advised to wait a year before looking for treatment —which can be expensive — to see if the stutter goes away by itself, unless the children become very unhappy or stop talking.

1.Children with a stutter at school _______.

A. are poor in their lessons

B. have normal language skills

C. work much harder than others

D. are looked down upon by others

2.According to Reilly, parents should make a telephone to the study members when ______.

A. they wanted to turn in the questionnaires

B. their children were rude to other people

C. they wanted to seek some practical advice

D. their children had a symptom of stuttering

3.The author shows the result of the research by _______.

A. presenting some statistics

B. offering some good examples

C. telling some interesting stories

D. performing some operations

4.Some children may stutter probably because_______.

A. they become angry very easily

B. their intelligence is very poor

C. they don’t have any patience at all

D. their language develops very quickly

5.It can be inferred from the last paragraph that _______.

A. it costs quite a lot to treat children with a stutter

B. it is hard for stuttering children to speak normally

C. children with a stutter should be treated in a proper way

D. stuttering children can’t be any worse off than they are already
