首先请阅读下列某旅游胜地的宾馆为游客提供的住房信息：
以下是一些游客对宾馆的评论。请将所给的评论和宾馆信息匹配起来。 I would recommend all tourists choose the hotel. Its owner Miss Scarlet herself couldn't be more pleased with this southern beauty. I am so grateful for the convenience it offered to my husband who has to use a wheelchair. The professionally decorated living area, the personal touches are all unforgettable.
You will feel as though you're on top of the world in your very own Outer Banks "tree house" this year！What .disappointed me most is that pets are not allowed to bring in there. But it is only 150 feet from beach access and just 500 feet from the beach!
This home has a fantastic location just 1 lot away from the easy-to-navigate beach, and is a short walk away from the fishing dock, shops，movie rentals and restaurants. We couple are in our seventies and we are breathing the charming sunshine. You will love the ocean and beach views from multiple furnished decks.
I will miss the charming hotel forever. You'll catch an abundance of outstanding comfort in the charming town. Take your lovely dog and walk in the forests. Also you can enjoy the happiness the modern technology brings you on the Internet.
The beautiful place made me feel right at home. The large well-equipped kitchen and char- coal and gas grills gave plenty of choices for cooking. I can't stop smoking even when I am on vacation. And I show no interest in surfing on the Internet But I really had a great time in. here.

Making Peace with Your Parents
As a teen, you’re going through big changes physically and mentally. Your interests are expanding. .
Here is the challenge: Kids need to explore the world in new ways, and parents need to protect them from the dangers that are out in that world. These conflicts can easily set off fireworks in otherwise calm houses. Sometimes conflicts can’t be avoided. But by paying attention to the building blocks of successful relationships, you can work towards making home a happy and healthy place for you and your parents.
For instance, try to find a time to talk when your parents are not angry, tired, distracted, or hungry. A good time to talk is when you’re all relaxed. Timing is everything. If the conversation begins to turn into an argument, you’d better calmly and coolly ask to stop the conversation --- for now. . Listen to what your parents are saying, and repeat it back to them. This shows them that you’re listening.
.
Respect is the building block of good communication. People who respect each other and care about each others’ feelings can disagree without things getting ugly.
. How do you build trust? Trust comes by actually doing what you say you’re going to do. Some teens find that doing fun activities with their parents can improve their relationships. Sometimes we forget that parents are more than rule-makers --- they’re interesting people who like to watch movies, and go shopping --- just like their teenagers!
What do you do if you are trying your best, but your relationship with your parents continues to be rocky? . You can find supportive adults, such as a teacher or a coach, who can lend an ear.
Remember you can only change your own behavior. You parents are the only ones who can change theirs.
| A．It also gives them a chance to clear things up if you’re not on the same page. |
| B．You can pick it up again when everyone’s more relaxed. |
| C．And then you’ll be able to accept what your parents say. |
| D．Faced with the challenge, children don’t know what to do. |
E.You are more likely to get along with your parents and have more independence if your parents believe in you.
F.And your desire to take control of your own life is growing.
G.You may consider seeking outside help.
阅读下列材料，然后从所给的五个选项（A、B、C、D和E）中，选出符合各小题要求的最佳选项，并在答题卷上将该项涂黑，选项中有一项是多余选项。
| A. Build Your Kids’ Work Skills B. Place Time Limits on Leisure Activities C. Help Kids Develop Strategies of dealing with different things D. Help Your Kids Figure Out Who They Are E. Build Your Kids’ Sense of Responsibility |
How Can a Parent Help?
Mothers and fathers can do a lot to ensure a safe landing in early adulthood for their kids. Even if a job’s starting salary seems too small to satisfy an emerging adult’s need for rapid content, the transition from school to work can be less of a setback if the start-up adult is ready for the move. Here are a few measures, drawn from my book Ready or Not, Here Life Comes, which parents can take to prevent what I call “work-life unreadiness.” _________You can start this process when they are 11 or 12. Regularly review their emerging strengths and weaknesses with them and work together on any shortcomings, like difficulty in communicating well or cooperating. Also, identify the kinds of interests they keep coming back to, as these offer clues to the careers that will fit them best.
Set a Good Example for Your Kids
Kids need a range of real role models. Have regular dinner-table discussions about people the family knows and how they got where they are. Discuss the advantages and disadvantages of your own career and encourage your kids to form some ideas about their own future. When asked what they want to do, they should be discouraged from saying “I have no idea.” They can change their minds 200 times, but having only a foggy view of the future is of little good. _______Teachers are responsible for teaching kids how to learn; parents should be responsible for teaching them how to work. Assign responsibilities around the house and make sure homework deadlines are met. Encourage teenagers to take a part-time job. Kids need plenty of practice developing effective organizational skills, such as managing time and setting priorities(优先).
_________Playing video games encourages immediate content（满足）. And hours of watching TV shows with canned laughter only teaches kids to process information in a passive way. At the same time, listening through earphones to the songs for a long time encourages kids to stay inside instead of participating in other outdoor activities. All these activities can prevent the growth of children’s communication and thinking skills and make it difficult for kids to develop the kind of sustained (持续的) concentration they will need for most jobs.
_________They should know how to deal with setbacks, stresses and feelings of inadequacy. They should also learn how to solve problems and resolve conflicts, ways to brainstorm and think critically. Discussions at home can help kids practice doing these things and help them apply these skills to everyday life situations.
What about the son or daughter who is grown but seems to be struggling and wandering aimlessly through early adulthood? Parents still have a major role to play, but now it is more delicate. Most of all, these new adults must feel that they are respected and supported by a family that appreciates them.

If your complaint is immediate, suppose you got the wrong order at a restaurant, make a polite but firm request to see the manager．When the manager comes, ask his or her name．And then state your problem and what you expect to have done about it．
Be polite!
But also be firm in making your complaint．
This doesn’t mean to put on airs and say “do you know who I am?” What it means is that people are often treated the way they expect to be treated．If you act like someone who expects a fair request to be granted, chances are that it will be granted ．
You are speaking to a voice coming from someone you cannot see．So you can’t tell how the person on the line is reacting．It is easy for that person to give you the run-around.
If your complaint doesn’t require an immediate response, it often helps to complain by letter．If you have an appliance that doesn’t work, send a letter to the store that sold it．Be business-like and stick to the point．Don’t spend a paragraph on how your uncle John tried to fix the problem and couldn’t．

Apple’s so-called iPhone 4 “Death Grip” ----where holding the phone in the left hand weakens the signal ---- may rank among the top marketing failures of the 2010s.
Frustrated iPhone 4 owners don’t need to wait around for Apple to handle the problem. They can solve the calling problems on their own. I’ve got five guaranteed solutions, but you probably won’t like them.________________. In most US states, purchasers can return phones within 14 days - 30 days in states like California. It’s the “buyer’s regret” period, and for some people who can’t make clear calls there surely is some kind of regret. Apple’s newest handset may be the most fashionable phone on the planet, but it is by no means the only choice. Yes, you can use another smart phone and find happiness.
________________. OK, so this might seem like an extreme choice, but, hey, aren’t all those phone calls annoying? I’ve dramatically reduced the number of phone calls and must say it feels good to be free of them. The iPhone has a touchscreen for a reason. Use it. But, please, don’t text and drive.
________________. If you must make phone calls, change your location. Repeatedly test for the Death Grip, but don’t let the sellers know the real reason for moving. Surely they’ll think that anyone willing to wait all night in a line to buy a cell phone is some one who is easily tricked or taken in. Don’t let your iPhone 4 enthusiasm drive up the seller’s counter offer.
________________. Hey, why should Apple be the only one who makes money? The iPhone 4 eBay auctions（拍卖）are crazy. There are “buy it now” prices of $1,000 and auctions with bids（出价）starting above $800. While writing this post, I watched one auction count down 7 minutes to zero, where in the final seconds the winning bid was $1,300 for the 32GB black model, unopened.
_______________. It’s surprising how effectively some people can just ignore problems like they don’t exist. No matter what the situation, they ignore it. “Hey, Johnny, don’t you know Toyota recalled（召回） a bazillion cars for accelerator pedal defects?” You know his answer: “Toyota is the best company on the planet. There is no problem with my car.” I’ve seen this kind of denial behavior among some Mac enthusiasts, too. About Death Grip, Apple CEO Steve Jobs is on record firmly stating: “Just avoid holding it in that way.” Apple claims the problem really isn’t iPhone 4 but you. Hey, you can choose to believe that. Denial will fix your problem, because you’ll never admit to having one.
| A．Live in denial |
| B．Sell your iPhone |
| C．Stop making phone calls |
| D．Purchase a car rather than an iPhone |
E. Move to a location with strong carrier signal
F. Return the phone and get one from a different manufacturer（制造商）

Every student has tests when they are at school. But have you ever been so worried about the tests that you can’t fall asleep at night? Have you ever felt sick or had a headache during a test? This worry in your mind can make your body feel bad. You may feel angry, frustrated, scared, or afraid --- which can give you a stomachache or a headache.
Good or normal stress might happen when you are called to answer a question in class or when you have to give a speech. This kind of stress can help you to get things better done.
But bad stress can happen if the stressful feelings keep going over a long time. You may not feel well if your parents are fighting, if a family member is ill, if you are having problems at school, or if you are going through anything else that makes you upset every day.
That means making good decision about how to spend your time. If you are only dealing with school stuff and have no time to play, you can get stressed. Make sure you keep your SELF in mind: Sleep, Exercise, Leisure and Food. If you take care of yourself and get enough sleep and food, and if you exercise and leave time for fun stuff, you will probably be less stressed out!
| A．However, there are two different kinds of stress. |
| B．Can you tell a kind of stress from another one? |
| C．The best way to keep stress away is to have a balanced life. |
| D．That kind of stress isn’t going to help you, and it can actually make you sick. |
E. Since bad stress is harmful for us, you’d better try to change it into good stress.
F. If so, then you know what stress is. Stress is what you feel when you are worried or uncomfortable about something.
G. For example, you may do a better job on your test if the stress pushes you to prepare well before the test.

Good communication is vital in modern society. We know that much of the communication is unspoken. Consciously or unconsciously, we show our true feelings with our eyes, faces, bodies and attitudes. Your good qualities can make good communication. The personal qualities include physical appearance, energy, rate of speech, pitch and tone of voice, gestures, expressiveness of eyes, and the ability to hold the interest of others. What should we do so that our communication will be effective? Here are my suggestions.
Firstly, the trick is to be consistently you, at your best. The most effective people never change character from one situation to another. They're the same whether they're having a conversation with their close friends, addressing their garden club or being interviewed for a job. They communicate with their whole being.
Secondly, whether you're talking to one person or one hundred, always remember to look at them. Don't break eye contact while talking. As you enter a room, move your eyes comfortably, then look directly at those in the room and smile. This shows clearly that you are at ease. Smiling is important. The best type of smile and eye contact is gentle and comfortable, not forced.
You should also absorb other people before showing yourself. You can't learn anything when you talk. When you attend a meeting, a party or an interview, don't immediately start throwing your opinions. Stop for a second. Absorb what's going on. What's the mood of the others — are they down, up, happy, expectant? Are they eager to learn from you, or do they show resistance? If you can sense what's happening with others, you will be better able to reach them. So, listen before you talk.
How do you get your energy up? Before the meeting, collect your thoughts about the goal of the meeting — yours and the other's. Once you go through the doorway, no longer think about yourself. Focus on the person you are meeting to find out what he is interested in. Properly collected energy comes across when we sincerely believe something. When you speak with energy, you are involved with your audience and your message. You create an air of certainty. The audience may disagree with you, but they can't question your belief.

What is your favourite colour? Do you like yellow, orange, red? . Do you prefer greys and blues? Then you are probably quiet, shy, and you would rather follow than lead. You tend to be pessimist(悲观主义者). At least, this is what psychologists tell us, and they should know, because they have been seriously studying the meaning of colour preference, as well as the effect that colours have on human beings.
. If you happen to love brown, you did so, as soon as you opened your eyes, or at least as soon as you could see clearly.
. A yellow room makes most people feel more cheerful and more relaxed than a dark green one; and a red dress brings warmth and cheer to the saddest winter day.
. A black bridge over the Thames River, near London, used to be the scene of more suicides(自杀) than any other bridge in the area---until it was repainted green. The number of suicide attempts immediately fell sharply. Perhaps it would have fallen even more if the bridge had been done in pink or baby blue.
. It is an established fact that factory workers work better, harder, and have fewer accidents when their machines are painted orange rather than black or grey.
| A．On the other hand, black is depressing. |
| B．They tell us, among other facts, that we do not choose our favourite colour as grow up --- we are born with our preference. |
| C．The rooms are painted in different colours as you like. |

F. Life is like a picture or a poem, full of different colours.
G. Colours do influence our moods---there is no doubt about it
How to Keep Your Job for a Long Time
Work Hard.
Many bosses don’t mind you spending a little time on some little things，but they do focus on your job attitude and the wealth you can create for this company.

Maybe there is no additional pay，but it is also very helpful to increase your own value. Maybe due to this additional help，your boss begins to take advantage of you and give you more important work.

What makes one person more intelligent than another? What makes one person genius, like the brilliant Albert Einstein, and another person a fool? Are people born intelligent or stupid, or is intelligence the result of where and how you live? .
We know, however, that just being born with a good mind is not enough. In some ways, the mind is like a leg or an arm muscle.. Mental exercise is particularly important for young children. Many child psychologists think that parents should play with their children more often and give them problems to think about.
.If, on the other hand, children are left alone a great deal with nothing to do, they are more likely to become dull and unintelligent.
.According to some psychologists, if parents are always telling a child that he or she is a fool or an idiot, then the child is more likely to keep doing silly and foolish things. So it is probably better for parents to say very positive (helpful) things to their children, such as “That was a very clever thing you did.” or “
.”
| A．A healthy body contributes to one’s intelligence. |
| B．Parents should also be careful with what they say to young children. |

G.These are very old questions and the answers to them are still not clear.
As you grow rapidly through your teenage years, you will experience a lot of changes. The changes may seem difficult. Don’t panic! You will deal successfully with them! You are a young adult now!
With more responsibility, you will find more freedom to make your own choices. This is a time to be well informed about making choices. In this way you can make healthy balanced decisions. You may already know your career path or you may have no idea at all what you want to do. Both situations are fine! Work hard and the right opportunity will present itself to you.
Young adulthood means greater freedom and more choices. But try not to shut your family out of your life. You should learn to think of others even though you are old enough to look after yourself.
It is also perfectly natural at this time for you to spend more time with your friends than your family. A true friend will stand by you no matter what happens.
This period is a part of the life cycle. There are some people who will be with you throughout life’s journey. There will be some people with whom you part and go separate ways. Leaving school can be hard. The reality is that you may not even see all of your classmates again.
You are a young adult. It is your life. No one can live it for you. So making the right choices will be important to you. Life is for living. Enjoy your life wisely!
| A．Choose your friends wisely. |
| B．They will help shape the future. |
| C．They may seem to happen quickly. |
| D．You will probably want to be independent. |
E. You may appreciate what you have in your own life.
F. The choices that you make from now on will be your choices.
G. Your family has been with you since you came into this world.
