With high pace of modern society, more and more people get stressed and feel lonely sometimes, but it usually only lasts between a few minutes and a few hours. This kind of loneliness is not serious. In fact it is quite normal. For some people, though, loneliness can last for years. Now researchers say there are different types of loneliness.
The first kind of loneliness is temporary. This is the most common type. It usually disappears quickly and doesn’t require any specially attention. The second kind, situational loneliness, is a natural result of a particular situation ―for example, when a family problem appears, the time a loved one dies, or when they move to a new place. Although this kind of loneliness can cause physical problems, such as headaches and sleeplessness, it usually does not last for more than a year. The third kind of loneliness is the most severe. Unlike the second type, it usually lasts for more than two years and has no specific cause. People in this case have problems socializing and can not become close to others. Unfortunately, many such people think there is little or nothing they can do to improve their condition.
Psychologists are trying to find ways to help habitually lonely people for two reasons: They are unhappy and unable to socialize and there is a connection between habitual loneliness and serious illness such as heart disease. While temporary and situational loneliness can be normal, healthy part of life, habitual loneliness can be a very sad, and sometimes dangerous condition.

How to get rid of waste is a great problem for the world today.

People who use the water from one of these rivers often get   18  . The water  may become so polluted that it   19   all the fish in the river. When these rivers finally reaches the   20  , it pollutes the ocean.
In many countries with   21  , human waste is piped directly into the sea without being dealt with. This is not   22  . Although the sea itself can break up the waste, beaches   23   become polluted.   24   scientists suggest people take the waste far out to sea in ships where the wind and waves break it down.
In 1989 an international law was passed to   25   people putting waste into the sea. It is now against the   26   to put anything into the sea nearby.

Most people believe they don’t have much imagination. They are    11   . Everyone has imagination, but most of us, once we become adults, forget how to   12   it. Creativity isn’t always  13  with great works of art or ideas. People at work and in their free time   14   think of creative ways to solve problems. Maybe you have a goal to achieve, a tricky question to answer or you just want to expand your mind! Here are three techniques to help you.
  Making connections. This technique involves taking   15   ideas and trying to find links between them. First, think about the problem you have to solve or the job you need to do. Then find an image, word, idea or object, for example, a candle. Write down all the ideas/words  16  with candles: light, fire, matches, wax, night, silence, etc. Think of as many as you can. The next stage is to relate the   17  to the job you have to do. So imagine you want to buy a friend an original   18  ; you could buy him tickets to match or take him out for the night.
  NO limits! Imagine that normal limitations don’t   19   . You have as much time /space / money, etc. as you want. Think about your goal and the new  20  . If your goal is to learn to ski,    21   , you can now practise skiing every day of your life (because you have the time and the money). Now   22    this to reality. Maybe you can practise skiing every day in December, or every Monday in January.
Be someone else! Look at the situation from a    23   point of view. Good businessmen use this technique in trade, and so do writers. Fiction writers often imagine they are the  24   in their books. They ask questions: What does this character want? Why can’t she get it? What changes must she make to get what she wants? If your goal involves other people, put yourself in their    25  . The best fishermen think like fish!

As I understand, if scientists produced a human clone, there would be a great risk of it having a disease. Nobody seems to understand the ageing process of a clone. It would be terrible if a baby was the age of its parent at     31    . Its cells would grow old fast and it would die young.    32     until the technique is perfectly safe, it should be     33    .
I'd love to have a clone of     34    . I often wish I had a twin sister, someone who    35    me in everything. So why not a clone? Well, the idea    36    be fun but I'm not sure if it would be     37    . I think we would be playing with fire if we let scientists go ahead with     38    cloning. There are so many     39   
involved that all research in this area should be strictly controlled.
There are so many arguments     40     cloning that it is difficult to get anyone to consider the possible benefits. I am     41     that it is a technique which could be beneficial. The most obvious use would be for childless     42    . They would be able to have babies with their own genetic material. I don't see what's wrong with that.
Imagine a child     43     up knowing that his or her mother is really a sister or a brother. The emotional     44     on the child would be     45    . Or a child who was cloned from a dead brother or sister. What kind of emotional pressure would they feel, knowing they were made as a replacement for another? The whole idea
    46     me!
It's all very good to ban human cloning but scientists should be allowed to   47   
research. If they don't, we may     48     important benefits for our society, such as producing body organs. A clone is an     49     copy of a person with the same gene. Therefore, it is the     50     donor for an organ(器官) transplant.

Apes and human beings share a lot in common when it comes to behavior. The evidence taken from the observation of the behavior of apes and children suggests that there are three causes for the outbreak of fighting and the exhibition of       by individuals.
One of the most common causes of fighting among both children and apes was over the ___ ___ of external objects. The argument over the ownership of any     object---food, clothes, toys, females, and the affection of others--- was sufficient reason to __ ___ force. In a case of monkeys’ disagreement over females,thirty females were killed. Two points are of particular interest to notice about these fights for possession.
In the first place, the fights are often carried to such an extreme that they end in the __ __ destruction of the objects of common desire. Toys are torn to pieces and females are killed.
In the second place it is observable, that __ __ occurs when an object is desired by only one person or by someone else. There were many cases where toys and other objects which had been      as useless were __ __ defended by their owners when they became the object of some other child’s desire.
Another cause of aggression is the tendency for children and apes are greatly to __ __ the invading of a stranger into their group. A new child in the class may be laughed at,       and disliked. A new monkey may be bitten to death. It is interesting to note that anger occurs when a stranger comes from the __   __ species. Monkeys do not mind being _ __ by a goat or a rat. Children do not object when animals are introduced to the group. As a matter of fact, such newcomers are often __ _ . But when monkeys meet a new monkey or children a strange child, aggression often occurs. This strongly suggests that the reason for the aggression is fundamentally possessiveness. The competition of the newcomers is feared. The present members of the group feel that there will be more       for the food or the       of the adults.
Finally, another common     of fighting among children is a frustration or failure in their own ___ __ .A child will be stopped either by __ __ causes such as bad weather or illness from doing something he wishes to do, for example, sail his boat or ride the bicycle. Sometimes the activity may be __ _ because of the opposition of some adult. The child may also frustrate itself by __ ___, through lack of skill or strength, to complete successfully some desired activity. Such a child will then in the ordinary sense become “naughty”. He will be in a bad or unfriendly temper.

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.   71  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.   72 
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.    73  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.
   74  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.    75  At the same time, if you find you are wrong, be sure to correct yourself and apologize to those that you have offended.
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.Repeat the process till you feel sure that you’d feel comfortable saying the words to the person’s face. B.Everyone was new to the network once. C.The basic rule is simple: treat others in the same way you would want to be treated. D.When you send short messages to a person online, you must say something beautiful to hear.
