Doctors say anger can be an extremely damaging emotion, unless you learn how to deal with it. They warn that anger can lead to heart disease, stomach problems, headaches, emotional problems and possibly cancer.
______ Some people express anger openly in a calm reasonable way. Others burst with anger, and scream and yell. But other people keep their anger inside. They can not or will not express it. This is called repressing anger.
For years many doctors thought that repressing(压抑) anger was more dangerous to a person’s health than expressing it. They said that when a person is angry, the brain releases the same hormones (荷尔蒙). They speed the heart rate, raise blood pressure, or sugar into the blood, etc. _____
______ They say the first step is to admit that you are angry and to recognize the real cause of the anger, then decide if the cause is serious enough to get angry about. If it is, they say, “______ Wait until your anger has cooled down and you are able to express yourself calmly and reasonably.”

Are You Ready for College?
Before you send in your college applications, keep this in mind: it’s not the norm (准则) in every culture for students to go to college right out of high school.
 So if you find yourself applying for college simply because it’s the thing to do after high school, think again. Going to college right after high school may be the norm in your community, but it’s not the norm everywhere and it may not be the best decision for you.
  Yes, higher education often gives young people a big advantage in the working world, but not always. A solid technical or business school application can give you an advantage as well, and if the environment seems like a better one for you than a traditional college campus, this might be your best choice. A lot of people lead successful lives with a high school education and years of work experience.
The price of a college or university education has become a serious burden for young people and their families.   In some cases, putting off college for a year or two while a student earns money full time can make sense.  
  Almost all students suffer from homesickness, but for some students, the transition may be too much to deal with.

A．Is going to college always the best choice for high school graduates?

B．Spend some time considering your choices before sending in your applications.

C．Besides, it’s quite possible that going to college is not the right choice for you.

D．During this time, the student can take a few inexpensive classes at a community college.

E. So students take massive amounts of loans, which can take decades to pay off.
F. Many young people have other choices, like military service, work experience, community service or travel.
G. The transition from high school to college is an emotional challenge for almost everybody, especially if you move away from home.

虎妈，美国耶鲁大学的华裔教授蔡美儿Amy Lynn Chua，出版了一本名叫《虎妈战歌》Battle Hymn of the Tiger Mother的书，在美国引起轰动。在接受采访时，回答了记者的5个问题（第61—65题）。请从下列提问（A、B、C、D、E和F）中选出与她的回答相匹配的问题，并在答题卡上将相应选项涂黑。选项中有一项是多余选项。
Questions
A．What do you think of the competition between China and the US?
B．What do you think of the image of “tiger mom?”
C．How do your daughters take the criticism about you after your book was published?
D．You said you would not get her Christmas gifts or anything when your daughter refused to repeatedly practice the music. How did your husband respond?
E．What do you think makes a good mother?
F．What does your husband think of your method of bringing up kids?
      
Chua’s answer: Well, actually I think there are many ways of being a good mother. In my book my focus is just a memory about my own family story, me trying to raise my own children in a kind of traditional Chinese way. I make mistakes and I make fun of myself. It’s amazing the way the book has been received internationally, because. I didn’t intend my book to be telling other people of view and I am a proud strict “tiger mom”. But I’m not trying to tell other people what are the best ways to teach or raise their children.
       
Chua’s answer: Well, the title may sound a little frightening. Let me tell you why I chose the title. I was born in the year of the tiger. And “battle Hymn” in the United States comes from “The Battle Hymn of the Republic”. The book is really about finding some sort of balance: how can we find the balance between the eastern way of parenting and the western way of parenting. In ways the book as been misunderstood maybe because of the title.
       
Chua’s answer: I didn’t write this book to have any foreign policy implications. But it’s been taken into the foreign policy realm. It is of course true that there is a connection between child-raising and the future of nations. We are raising, as parents, the next generation. So I think Henry is right. We tapped into this thing of insecurity, American’s fear about the rising power of china. A friend of mine told me that if the book had been called The Battle Hymn of an Italian Mother or The Battle Hymn of a Mexican Mother, nobody would have cared. It’s really “China”. you know.
       
Chua’s answer: I don’t think he opposes my idea of raising children. I’d like to think we have a combination, which is the right solution. You need a balance. From my perspective, what I give my kids is something that I thought was lacking in the US educational system. You know, they hate memorization, while in China you have too much of it. In the US, learning should be fun, a lot of games,. So I brought hard work and disciplines. My husband and I think this is a great thing always teaching them to question the authority and to ask why. Don’t accept everything just because somebody tells you. Figure it out yourself. I really think you need to combine both these qualities if you want creativity and dynamism.
       
Chua’s answer:  They both are stronger than I am. I am really proud of them. Their friends and communities supported them. At a time, I couldn’t even look at the Internet because there are so many negative comments. And they would find the good ones and text them to me, saying “here’s a good one mommy, hang in there.” This experience has actually brought my family together. Believe it or not, not just my kids, also my parents and my three younger sisters have supported me.

A punctual person is in the habit of doing a thing at the proper time and is never late in keeping an appointment．The unpunctual man, on the other hand, never does what he has to do at the right time．

．If a person is invited to dinner and arrives later than the appointed time, he keeps all the other guests waiting for him．Usually this will be regarded as rude both to the host and the other guests．

Today，kids have more worries and face more pressures than ever before. Here are a few tips to help your child focus on and do well in school.
●Create a personal schedule
Recording everything that must be done on a calendar or “to do” list will help him to keep track of important dates and deadlines. If he keeps it in a visible place he will have no problem acknowledging upcoming events and will be better able to plan how and where to spend his time.
●Watch the clock
　　 I also recommend setting his clock or watch five minutes ahead since it's always easy to run late. When it comes to something like catching a bus，just five minutes can make a significant difference.
●Focus
He should train himself to be able to concentrate alone on one specific task. This is much easier in a noisefree environment. No TV or radio should be on to distract him.
●　　
Lack of sleep is proven to harm us physically. The more sleep we get，the more alert we are. We thus have more energy to handle life's daily tasks. The average adult needs at least six hours of sleep a night and the average child needs at least eight.
●Stay in shape
Through spending time outdoors or playing sports with friends，he can “blow off some steam” so to speak，as well as reenergize.　　
●Talk through your problems
Be able to share his concerns with you. 　　 If you make it clear that you understand him and are willing to help，not only will you contribute to his emotional health but you'll help build an open and honest relationship as well.

A．Sharing feelings often makes them easier to deal with.

B．Help your child work better to realize his aim.

C．Setting an alarm for the morning is a must.

D．Get enough sleep.

E．Help your child do better in school.
F．Encourage your child to be positive.
G．Encourage him to get outside.

Competitors who wear red win more than those that are dressed in any other color, according to a study in Germany.

Experts believe that red could make individuals and teams feel more confident as well as being perceived by others as more aggressive.
On the other hand, the results could suggest that the success of those teams has given those that wear the red color more confidence.
The study, by German sports psychologists at the University of Munster, was reported in New Scientist magazine. They showed video recordings of taekwondo(跆拳道) matches to 42 experienced referees(裁判). One fighter wore blue and the other wore red.
They then showed them the same recordings but digitally manipulated(操纵) the clothing to exchange the colors.
“If one competitor is strong and the other is weak, it won’t change the outcome of the fight,” said Norbert Hagemann, who led the study. “”
In 2004 scientists at Durham University also looked at how color influenced sporting competitiveness. They analyzed Olympic contest sports such as boxing, tawkwondo, and freestyle wrestling and found that nearly 55 percent of which were won by the competitor in red.
“” said Robert Burton, one of the researchers.
It is the color of fire and is often associated with energy, danger, strength, power, and determination.
The fighters wearing red were given an average of 13 percent more points than when they wore blue.
C. The study shows that football shirts from worldwide teams such as Arsenal, Liverpool, sell successfully.
D. It is reasonable that wearing red makes individuals feel more confident, although this hasn’t yet been tested.
E. Researchers found that those who wear red tops, jackets or clothing score 10 percent more in any competition than if they were in another color.
F. The findings could explain why Manchester United, Liverpool and Arsenal have been so successful.
G. But the closer the levels, the easier it is for the color to tip the scale

Read the following text and choose the most suitable heading from the list A - F for each paragraph. There is one extra heading which you do not need.

A. Building Trust B. Approval and encouragement C. Communication D. Belonging and Acceptance E. The importance of relationship F. Being responsible

Relationships are an important part of your life. Relationships help you meet your social and emotional needs. They help you feel accepted and liked by others. The feelings you have about yourself and others depend on how well these needs are met.
One of the most important things in life is to be loved and accepted by others. This gives you a feeling of security. You feel secure when you know you can count on family and friends to love and to accept you the way you are. You add to your feeling of security by making others feel loved. Helping people you care about makes you feel giving and unselfish.
Think about how good you feel when someone compliments or thanks you. “What a good job” or “I appreciate your help” are comments that you like to hear about yourself. Such comments make you feel worthwhile. Naturally you feel happy when you receive a compliment. Likewise, you can compliment your family members or friends on their accomplishments.
Learn to express your thoughts clearly and listen to what others say. Talk things over with your family and friends. Share your hopes and dreams. Express your joys and frustrations. When family members and friends are talking, take time to listen to what they are saying. Give them clues that show you are listening, such as a nod of approval or a smile.
Another relationship skill that helps people get along with one another is trust. To earn trust you need to show parents, adults, and friends that you can handle new experiences and responsibilities. Being honest and truthful with people can also help you.

I think machine power is better than human power because we cannot survive without our daily used machines like bikes, coolers, computers, etc.
Started on  14-Apr-2008  By Smith E-mail: [e-mail]
Johnson 6-May-2008	Yes, it’s very clear that machine power is better than man power. But machine power has its limitations (局限). It cannot survive without electricity and manhandling. If it doesn’t have these two then it is completely useless. So man should not completely depend on machines. One more point is that because of the use of machines man has become lazy. This laziness has brought in many problems like obesity, arthritis (关节炎) and other health problems. But I am not saying that man should completely turn from machine power to man power. He should have a balance of both. Even I can’t think of life without a car, a computer and a cooler.
Sally 9-May-2008	Humans only created the machines. So, human power is greater than machine power. To do the things quickly we created the machines. But machines cannot think. That thinking power beats machine power.
Tina 17-May-2008	But without humans there is no value of any machine. If someone wants to use his machine perfectly then one must have expert labor or man power.
Tommy 19-May-2008	Hi to all, my opinion is that human power is more powerful than machine power, because human beings created the machines. Human brain works more compared to machines.
Mike 20-May-2008	I think human power is better than machine power because even if we travel on foot to near places the money will not be wasted and we can get exercise.

Who agrees with Smith generally?

A．Tommy.

The Internet has opened up a whole new online world for us to meet, chat and go where we’ve never been before.
But just as in face to face communication, there are some rules of behavior that should be followed when on line.      . Imagine how you’d feel if you were in the other person’s shoes.
For anything you’re about to send: ask yourself, “Would I say this to the person’s face?” If the answer is no, rewrite and reread.      
If someone in the chat room is rude to you, your instinct (本能) is to fire back in the same manner. But try not to do so.       If it was caused by a disagreement with another member, try to fix the situation by politely discussing it. Remember to respect the beliefs and opinions of others in the chat room.
     Offer advice when asked by newcomers, as they may not be sure what to do or how to communicate. When someone makes a mistake, whether it’s a stupid question or an unnecessarily long answer, be kind about it. If it’s a small mistake, you may not need to say anything. Even if you feel strongly about it, think twice before saying anything. Having good manners yourself doesn’t give you license to correct everyone else.       At the same time, if you find you are wrong, be sure to correct yourself and apologize to those that you have offended（冒犯）.
It is not polite to ask others personal questions such as their age, sex and marital status. Unless you know the person very well, and you are both comfortable with sharing personal information, don’t ask such questions.

A．It’s natural that there are some people who speak rudely or make mistakes online.

B．Repeat the process till you feel sure that you’d feel comfortable saying the words to the person’s face.

C．Everyone was new to the network once.

D．The basic rule is simple: treat others in the same way you would want to be treated.

E. When you send short messages to a person online, you must say something beautiful to hear.
F. You should either ignore the person, or use your chat software to block their messages.
G. If you do decide to tell someone about a mistake, point it out politely.

Active listening is an essential skill in learning. It is when you listen carefully to make sure you understand and learn the information that is being conveyed.       Here are some things which can help you to listen actively.
◆      . Don’t just write everything down. Listen carefully and make sure you understand what the purpose of this lecture is. As you take down notes, keep the main point in mind and make sure you understand how these notes are related.
