the Aloha State① Hawaii is sometimes called "the Aloha State." Aloha is a word in the Hawaiian language meaning love and peace. It is often used as a way to say “hello” or “goodbye.” Hawaii is like the word aloha, because it is a state that has two viewpoints: it remembers its history and looks toward the future.② Hawaii is a U.S. state made up of a group of islands in the Pacific Ocean. It is made up of eight large islands and over 100 other smaller islands. It is the only state that is not in North America. The islands were formed by volcanoes that erupted (爆发)and rose above the ocean. There are still active volcanoes in Hawaii.③ Because of its location, Hawaii has a tropical climate. It is warm, but usually not hot, all year long. Rarely does the temperature drop below 60 degrees Fahrenheit(华氏温度), although it may occasionally snow at the top of some of the mountains.④ Once called the Sandwich Islands by Europeans, Hawaii is thought to have been settled by ancient sailors from other islands in the Pacific. The British explorer Captain Cook was thought to be the first European to find the islands in 1778. Because of its location, Hawaii became a frequent stop for European traders and ships. Hawaii was an independent country before it became part of the United States in 1893. It was governed by either a king or a queen. It is one of the only four U.S. states to have been a country before statehood. It was admitted into the Union in 1959 as the 50th state.⑤ Today Hawaii is important as a vacation destination.

Secrets for a Happier YouSome people are naturally blessed with a cheerful character. They spread warmth and sunshine wherever they go. They attract people like bees to honey. So what is it that makes these people so different from others?① The most important secret to happiness is to be grateful for the good things in your life——whatever may be your financial position. Instead of appreciating material wealth, be thankful for the loved ones in your life and enjoy the little pleasures of life that come your way.② The next important secret is to develop relationships. Increasing social contacts helps boost brain power. Therefore, work towards improving your relationships and take time off to get in touch with friends. This will lift some burden off your shoulders, especially when you share your thoughts and feelings. Socializing can give you an added boost to your moods.③ Thirdly, do not hold a grudge(怨恨)against anyone. Instead, learn to be kind, generous, and forgiving towards others, even to the person who hurt you. Be sympathetic and understanding, and try not to criticize others. Focus on the positives of a person instead of the negatives, for none of us is born perfect. It will keep your heart and mind free and peaceful.④ Besides, involve yourself in some creative process, be it dancing, writing or drawing. This can bring out the hidden talent in you to achieve magical happiness. Or pick up new skills and feel the great sense of satisfaction by carrying out certain tasks which you otherwise would never have felt.⑤ Finally, follow a daily regular sleep-wake cycle to keep you energetic and happy. Exercise regularly or practice relaxation techniques like deep breathing and yoga(瑜伽). Ensure you get eight to nine hours of sleep every day and have a well-balanced diet.1.A cheerful character makes you____.2.Enjoy the pleasures of life____.3.Socializing can make you____.4.Try to forgive____.5.Creative activities enable you____.

Easy Ways to Green up Your Life① Eating meat produces greenhouse gas emissions(排放). If you can't give up meat completely, you can reduce your consumption or give up beef. Don't eat out-of-season farm products. They are grown in greenhouses. A lot of energy goes into heating the greenhouses. And shipping such out-of-season farm products by air from remote places consumes huge amount of energy, too. Just look for local and in-season foods.② Spend less time behind the wheel,cycle and walk more, and use public transport more. If you have to drive, the first thing is to choose a car that uses comparatively less fuel. Besides, stick to the speed limit,keep your tires properly filled with air, empty your trunk of heavy items, and accelerate and brake gently.③ Want to take a vacation trip by plane? Don’t hurry. Think again. Air travel has a big impact on the environment compared with most other forms of travel. You have better choices. Consider having a vacation within driving distance. Of course, taking the train is the best choice.④ Think about how much “stuff” you own. A big part of emissions are linked to our consumption. To reduce it we need a change in consumption culture. Do we really need all the things we buy? And do we always need the newest one? Getting fewer things and making the ones you own last longer will reduce energy use.⑤ Your choices about heating and cooling your home are some of the most important things you can do in terms of cutting your greenhouse gas emissions. Keeping the temperature a little lower in the winter and higher in the summer can make a big difference.1.Eating beef can____.2.One is advised to remove heavy things____.3.One had better take a train____.4.Buying less is one way to____.5.To save energy, properly control____.

My Science Teacher① Usually when people decide to be teachers, they go to college, get a degree, and find a job at a school. They prepare lesson plans, give out homework, and make up tests. To them, it is just a job, a way to make a living. But for my science teacher, Mrs. Cook, teaching is not just her job; it’s who she is. She teaches through her heart.② She has so much enthusiasm in her lessons. She is the one who goes out late at night to buy 10 pounds of sugar for our experiments. She brings in water from the nearby canal to make her point, and to make us remember the lesson. She makes us think that each new fact could change our lives.③ Mrs. Cook wants all of us to do well in school. She tries to reach each student. She neither ignores the sleeping kid in the back, nor lets the problem students alone. She shows special concern to slow students, and often helps them after school. None of us can slip away from her attention.④ Middle school is probably one of the hardest times of our lives. We change friends so often, and fight with our parents constantly. But Mrs. Cook has made this year so much better for us than it could have been. We know that if we had to turn to anybody, it would be her. And I’m not alone in feeling this way; she is a role model for our whole class.⑤ Science had never been my favorite subject. I had never borrowed science books. I had never performed experiments in my home. But this year, it’s the science class that I don’t mind waking up for, the test I don’t mind taking. I have Mrs. Cook to thank for that. She has taught us so much more than just a single subject.1.To become a school teacher, one needs______.2.Mrs. Cook often goes out to collect______.3.Mrs. Cook offers slow students extra help______.4.Our whole class take Mrs. Cook as______.5.I am lucky to have Mrs. Cook as______.

Volunteers① Volunteers are people who work without being paid. They do the work because they want to. We need volunteers because there are many things that need to be done in society which the Government can’t afford to pay for.② Volunteers are motivated by a desire to help others and to make the world a better place. Statistics suggest that more than one million people do voluntary work in New Zealand. Some volunteers do the kind of work that they are particularly interested in, but perhaps haven’t had the chance to do during their working lives. Others make use of their professional skills and experience.③ Volunteers contribute to society in a number of ways. For example, some give their time to help preserve the natural environment. While there are government-run projects to maintain national parks and forests, the projects would not succeed without volunteers. Some environmental organizations rely solely on voluntary labor.④ “Meals on Wheels” is a voluntary organization run by the Red Cross. It delivers meals to elderly people who are unable to cook for themselves. Every year volunteer drivers deliver a million meals. This enables elderly people to remain in their own houses.⑤ Volunteer Service Abroad was started in 1962. It sends volunteers to poor countries. To be a volunteer you should be between the ages of 25 and 77,of good health and have a skill or ability that is requested by the country. Volunteers spend two years helping the local people improve their lives. Two years is a long time, but when they return, many volunteers say: It was the best two years of my life.1.

Surviving Illness Away From HomeBeing ill is a horrible thing at the best of times, but what is even worse is when you are ill away from home. If you’re living away from home or abroad, it’s important to get better at your own pace in order to ensure you can enjoy the rest of your time away.① Pampering (娇惯)yourself is always a good start. If you feel so ill and tired that you can’t even get out of bed, then don’t! Make a trip to the kitchen and stock up on fluids and try to make yourself some hot food. The key to getting better is to drink lots of fluids. Water and hot drinks such as green tea and soup are usually the best things.② Try to distract yourself from feeling horrible. If you have a TV, watch one of your favorite films or TV series. If you don’t have a TV, maybe put the radio on. If you have a headache and all the noise is too much to handle, try reading the book you’ve always wanted to read but never had the time to. Being ill doesn’t have to be the worst day in the world!③ Tell your friends and family that you are ill. Sometimes there is nothing better than hearing words of comfort from loved ones who feel sorry for you and want to cheer you up and make you happy. There is nothing wrong with a little attention from others when you’re ill. Who knows, they might even be willing to travel and visit you with lots of “Get Well” presents like your favorite food, magazine or flowers.④ When you do arrive at a new place where you will be staying for a few months, make sure you know exactly where the nearest drugstore is. If you are in a foreign country, it might be best to translate a few useful phrases before you start asking for a cure.1.Being sick away from home is____.2.You are advised to recover____.3.The best cure for illness is____.4.If you cannot bear the noise from TV, ____.5.A few useful translated phrases help you____.6.You can buy medicine____.

Little Steps, Big Reward① More than 145 million Americans take walking as part of their exercise, according to a recent report. That's 15 million more people walking than last year. Many places in America have reported an increase in walking. But most of the walkers are found in big cities like New York.② Despite the increase in walking, only about 30% of Americans say they have at least 3 hours to take exercise a week. Our society has been conditioned to be inactive. People rely on modern conveniences and become lazy. The inactive lifestyle has a negative aspect. We are more likely to be in poor health like overweight, which will threaten our life span. That's where walking comes in.③ Walking is the best way to improve our health. Just 30 minutes of regular quick walking can help lose weight. At the same time, it can help lower the risk of heart disease and some cancers, and improve our blood pressure. If 30 minutes is too much, we may divide it into three 10-minute parts during the day. Most of us can find 10 minutes if we really try.④ Walking requires only a pair of shoes and suits any schedules. Keep a pair of sport shoes at work. If you have a few minutes of free time, make use of them to take a quick walk. Even if you go to a health club several times a week, you can still look for ways to be active while at work. It may be walking downstairs for a direct talk rather than sending an email.⑤ Small efforts can make a big difference. But the hardest part for us is getting started. It's usually like this. When people get to a comfort level of walking for 10 minutes, they might think about trying 11 minutes. That first step is really worthy.1.Paragraph 1:2.Paragraph 2:3.Paragraph 3:4.Paragraph 4:5.Paragraph 5:

Universal GesturesGestures for victory, defeat and stress are almost the same in all countries.On the front page of a newspaper we often see the picture of people holding their head in shock. People put their hands on their head or over their mouth when they look on a scene with shock or horror.Chris Ulrich is an expert on body language. He said that covering your mouth or putting your hands on your head helps make you feel safer from a perceived threat. By covering part of your face you can feel hidden from the shocking event. Additionally these reactions can help a person comfort himself through touch. Ulrich said it is a self comforting gesture to help people in the moment.In times of strong anxiety, people will twist their hands to calm themselves. Ulrich said it is a reaction people often have when they are in front of an audience or nervous. "It's a comfort for them that they'll get through it," said Ulrich. He relates that gesture to a parent trying to calm a child.Most athletes react to victories or defeats with specific behaviors. A 2008 study examined pictures of judo (柔道) competitors during the 2008 Olympic Games. They were from different countries, but they showed similar behaviors when they won a match. The winners would throw their head back or raise their hands in triumph. Ulrich said these victory behaviors are a way winners "explode" out and take up more space.However, if an athlete suffers a loss, he will act in a way that makes him physically smaller, such as hanging his head. "When you lose, you want to disappear," said Ulrich. The study also found that the judo competitors had the same behavior when they lost.1. People put their hands over their mouth to_____.2. People tend to twist their hands when they are_____.3. In Paragraph 4, "that gesture" refers to_____.4. Judo winners often act in a way that makes them_____.5. The judo losers would_____.

Who Is James Bond?The latest Bond film is an enormous box-office (票房) hit. But who is James Bond? Where does he come from? Author Ian Fleming, the creator of James Bond, told us something about the origins of the world's most famous secret agent. In the first Bond novel, Ian Fleming told us that James Bond was the son of a Scottish father and an Asian mother. But perhaps this was not really true. The title of the 19th Bond film, “The World Is Not Enough,” was based on the Latin motto of the Bond family, which is mentioned in one of the early novels. However, it now appears that the motto is not that of the Scottish Bonds, but that of a different Bond family, who came from England. So perhaps Bond is English, not Scottish. Bond went to Eton College, the same school as his creator Ian Fleming. This is a school where young people learn how to move in high society, like Bond does so well.After leaving school, Bond did not go to university. He joined the British Secret Service. He soon got promoted to the top. From then on he was 007, “licensed to kill”, and so began a career which would take him to all the corners of the earth. In the early days, Bond’s role was quite clear. He was working for the West. His main enemies were men from the KGB and other dangerous organizations. Since the end of the Cold War, the role of the Service has changed, and Bond’s job profile has changed with it. Now his main enemies are the big bosses of organized crime and international terrorism. Unlike the Cold War, organized crime is unlikely to come to an end. We can therefore be sure that James Bond, the best-known English fictional hero of the 20th century, has many more adventures ahead of him.1. The new Bond film made much money for its producer. ( )2. Ian Fleming directed the latest film about James Bond. ( )3. "The World Is Not Enough" is the name of a novel. ( )4. Bond is unable to move in high society. ( )5. Bond went to university before he became a secret agent. ( )6. The British Secret Service gave Bond many awards. ( )7. Bond went to many parts of the world because of his job. ( )8. Bond fought against many dangerous organizations. ( )9. We can expect more adventurous stories about Bond. ( )10. This text tells about the personality of James Bond. ( )
