〔1〕There are many useful suggestions and pieces of advice that can help one to improve English. Here are some useful suggestions and new tips to increase one’s English language vocabulary.
〔2〕Learning English vocabulary is about much more than just learning the right words. A broad grasp of vocabulary in the English language is based on understanding important expressions and “word combinations”, which means groups of words that often or always go together.
〔3〕Learning a word will not help very much if you quickly forget it. Research shows that it takes from 10 to 20 repetitions to really make a word part of your vocabulary. Since most words are learned from how they are used in context （上下文）, the more words one is exposed to（接觸）, The easier one will find English to learn . Keep a writing pad close to you. When you read, pay close attention to the word you do not know, write the word down and try to figure out its meaning from the context. Then_______________________ in a dictionary.
〔4〕Remember that if you do not use English words that you have just learned in conversation or writing, you will forget them very quickly. So the best way to learn new words effectively is just by trying to use them in conversation and writing. Remember also that practice is the key to fluent spoken English.
〔5〕Building vocabulary is a life-long task. Remember, “In the beginning was the word.” Your future could depend on how rich your vocabulary is. It will also determine the quality of your communication.

1 A flood is the overflow of a huge amount of water onto normally dry land. Flooding occurs when the overflowing water submerges (淹沒) land, and it causes a lot of problems. It is a cruel and violent expression of water.
2 Floods are often deadly and damaging. They kill lots of people, damage houses and crops, and cause extensive destruction. In broader terms, floods are of two types: natural floods and catastrophic floods. Natural floods are the floods that are caused naturally by the overflow of a huge volume of water, from rivers, lakes, oceans, or by heavy rain or downpours, hurricanes, and so on. Catastrophic floods are floods that are caused by some significant (重大的) or unexpected events, for instance, dam breakages.
3 Heavy rainfall is one of the major causes of floods. The level of water in rivers or lakes rises due to heavy rainfall. When the level of water rises above the river banks or dam, the water starts overflowing, which causes floods. Floods occur more in the regions that ____________.
4 Floods are also caused due to heavy snow melting. Global temperatures are rising due to global warming. The rising temperatures are making the snow caps melt faster. Continuous and fast melting snow raises the level of water in the oceans, which consequently raises the level of water in rivers, and when the level of water in rivers rises above the river banks, it causes floods.
5 Generally, floods occur more in low-lying areas or areas below sea level. One of the main reasons is that rivers flow slowly in these areas. The volume of water increases in low-lying areas. When the level of water rises in these regions, it causes floods.
6 Sometimes floods are caused due to poor dams that cannot hold great volume of water. Therefore, there are always different causes of floods. However, floods caused by humans can be avoided. Humans should let the nature go its own way.

【1】 One day, a poor boy who was trying to pay his way through school by selling goods door to door found that he only had one dime（10分硬幣）left. He was hungry so he decided to beg for a meal at the next house.
【2】 However, he lost his courage when a lovely young woman opened the door. Instead of a meal he asked for a drink of water. She thought he looked hungry so she brought him a large glass of milk. He drank it slowly, and then asked, “How much do I owe you?”
【3】 “You don’t owe me anything,” she replied. “Mother has taught me never to accept pay for a kindness. ” He said, “Then I thank you from the bottom of my heart.” As Howard Kelly left that house, he not only felt stronger physically, but it also increased his faith in God and the human race. He was about to give up and quit before this point.

Dr Howard Kelly, now famous, was called in for the consultation. When he heard the name of the town __________, a strange light filled his eyes.

[1]Many people complain about their work day by day, however, we have some suggestions for you. Just keep all these in mind, and you are sure to feel happier than before.
[2]☆People Need You. There's always someone who relies on you, no matter what type of work you do. The public rely on the toilet cleaners to keep the toilets fresh. The public rely on the trash men to remove their unwanted garbage. So recognize that there are always those who need you to do a good job. Please don't let them down.
[3]☆Plan Out Your Day. Often, we'll find a day disappears as quickly as it arrives because we get bogged down with minor chores and emergencies that keep appearing. These minor fires mean we don't get to tackle the much bigger fires, which would give us a lot more satisfaction.
[4]What's the best way to deal with this? Plan out your day. At the end of your shift, decide what “major fires” need putting out tomorrow. Plan out when you'll tackle these major issues, and then stick to that plan no matter what little embers may pop up.
[5]☆Do something different. Consistency is a good thing to have at work. But what isn't good to have is the same routine, day after day. It drags you down, it makes you tired early in the day, and it kills any motivation you have for the job.
[6]Do something different! Step out of your routine and take a fresh look at things. Inject some variety into your days, even if it's something as simple as taking a different route to work.
[7]☆______________. It amazes me sometimes how little some people actually know about their work colleagues. Your colleagues are not robots. They're other human beings too, breathing and talking and trying to make a living, just like you. So treat them as human beings. Get to know them a bit better each day by asking a different question, or by starting a new topic. Share experiences with them, and they'll realize that you're human too, and that it's OK to talk with each other about something other than work.

[1]We are told breakfast is the most important meal of the day，and dinner the most enjoyable．It is an occasion to socialize and spend time with the family．But what about lunch?
[2]In today's fast-paced society，few people take time to enjoy this midday meal．Most of us just rush right through it．We grab a quick salad，or buy a sandwich and eat at our computers．Sometimes，if there is a deadline around the corner，we just          ．
[3]The development of technology hasn't done our eating habits much good either．We are constantly troubled by e-mail，social media，and 24-hour news．Even When we do sit down for lunch，we are more connected to our hand-held electronic devices than ourselves．
[4]Long working hours can cause all kinds of health problems，and many developed countries have put in place labor laws specifically regarding the lunch break．These regulations give employees the right to take a break during a long work shift，but it's up to them whether they do so or not．
[5]Frank Partnoy，a former Wall Street trader，says that employers should encourage workers to take time off for lunch．This is because long lunch breaks can benefit both individuals and society．Writing in The Guardian，Partnoy says that one obvious reason to take a lunch break is to slow down and gain some perspective．A break from work allows us to think strategically and outside the box．It also puts our daily tasks into a broader context．If we sit down at a proper restaurant and chat leisurely with colleagues，we are more likely to slow down，something that hardly can be achieved in a noisy and over-packed fast food chain．
[6]Despite these benefits，some employees might still be unwilling to take time off for lunch．Partnoy's suggestion? Make skipping lunch difficult：Employers could ask workers to fill out a form stating their reasons for skipping the meal．

[1]E-mail may be the most important, unique method for communicating and developing relationships since the telephone．First of all, ____________．Anyone who can use a word processor can also write an e-mail message without difficulty．Secondly, it saves time and money．It costs nothing more than your time．No paper expense, no postage and no envelope expense．People also find it familiar and safe because it is similar in many respects to writing letters but avoids the annoyances of addressing envelopes, licking stamps, and trips to the mailbox．
[2] Of all the methods for developing relationships on the Internet, e-mail is the most common and perhaps the most powerful．Although friendships and romances may indeed begin in chat rooms, instant messages, blogs, or other online tools improve greatly by becoming more effectively visual and auditory（聽覺的）, as in video teleconferencing, e-mail will not disappear．Many people will prefer it because it is a non-visual and non-auditory form of communication．After all, we don’t see people rushing out to buy video equipment to add it to their telephone．
[3] E-mail is not just an electronic mail sent via the Internet．It creates a psychological space in which pairs of people or groups of people communicate with each other．It creates a situation in which human relationships can be unfolded．

[7]Dave Weiss says he is concerned about such results, but hopeful for the future for American students learning science．Fred Tenkye thinks volunteers like Dave Weiss are helping students do that．"And if you can develop a passion for science, then eventually the grades and the test scores, then that will follow and increase, too．" he said．

[1]A new study has found evidence of aggressive behaVior in children who drink four or more servings of soft drinks every day．
[2]The mothers of 3，000 five-year-olds took part in the study．They were asked to keep a record of how many servings of soft drinks their children drank over a two-month period and keep records of how they behaved．The researchers found that 43 percent of the boys and girls drank at least one daily serving of soda．Four percent of the youngsters had four or more sodas to drink every day．
[3]Children who drank the most soda were more than two times likely to show signs of aggression．“For the children who consumed four or more  soft drinks per day，we see an association between aggressive behaviors, attention problems and withdrawn behaviors．”Shakira Suglia says．The aggressive behaviors included destroying possessions belonging to others，taking part in fights and physically attacking people.
[4]Shakira says the researchers identified the link after they considered the factors like the child’s age and sex．They also considered     ，such as whether the boys and girls were eating sweets or given fruit drinks on a normal day．In addition，the researchers examined parenting styles and other social conditions that might be taking place in the home.
[5]It is not quite clear why young children who drink a lot of soda have behavior pmblems．However，a substance oftell found in soft drinks is caffeine，which helps to make people feel energetic．Doctor Suglia suggests that caffeine could be causing the children to be more aggressive.

[1]While mankind has always been seeking beauty, standards for the abstract thing have been changing constantly throughout history.
[2]Walk around an art museum and you’re likely to see lost of fat female images in the artwork, For many centuries, being thin meant that you were ugly and poor-you didn’t have enough food to eat and you spent your days working in the fields, Being full-figured, on the other hand, was a symbol of       .Today, while plenty of experts will point out that pictures of models and famous people are beautified and Barbie has an impossible-to-achieve figure, both men and women seek to be thin, sometimes through disordered eating ,unhealthy amounts of exercise and operation.
[3] Make-up is another thing to which many women today are addicted, Ancient
Egyptians, Greeks and Romans loved make-up, However, these early civilizations were exceptions to the rule, as make-up was mostly avoided in the centuries following Queen Victorna went so far as to call all make-up rulgar(粗俗的)in a public speech, and modesty was the leading beauty trend for many years, But thanks to the introduction of movies, make-up came back in a big way .Today, it is a billion-dollar industry.
[4]Though beauty might seem like a visual thing, smells also play a big role. Just imagine this: if a supermodel didn’t shower for months at a time, would we still consider her beautiful? Being clean is essential for anyone to be considered beautiful, but that would certainly surprise the generations of people who never bathed, They were concerned that wearing no clothes was immoral and the devil(魔鬼)would catch them during their bath, Now many of us can hardly go a day without taking a shower or bath, Additionally, in an effort of appearing more attractive, many of us try to smell like baby powder, flowers and fruits with the help of perfume.
