Mass Media The weather report, a story about the Pop stars and different cultures are examples of messages from the media(传媒). Examples of media are television, radio, newspapers and books and the telephone. The media that can reach many people at once are called mass media. It is not difficult to think of other messages we receive through the mass media(大众传媒). Every day we get hundreds of them. Think about ads, for example. We see and hear these messages almost everywhere we go. Ads are important messages. Even though they sometimes make us feel rather angry, they help us know things well. Most of us get more information from the media than from the classroom. Think, for a moment, about how you learn about news and events. Do you learn them from other people or the media? What about international news? What is the most important place of information for you? People who are asked this question usually answer, “Television.” Think of all the messages you received today. Perhaps you read a newspaper during breakfast, or maybe you read ads on billboards(露天广告) on your way to school. Did you listen to a weather report or the sports news on the radio this morning? Now you are reading, and that’s to say you’re getting information through a very important medium of mass. The mass media are important to us because they shape(影响) our decisions and opinions. Don’t you think so? |
A. Ads are Important Messages from the Mass Media B. Different Kinds of Messages One May Receive Each Day. C. Television-A Rich Place of Information D. What Mass Media is E. Mass Media are important to people |

We are all called upon to make a speech at some point in life, but most of us don’t do a very good job. This article gives some suggestions on how to give a successful speech.
So, you have to give a speech and you’re frightened. You get nervous, you forget what you want to say, you stumble(结巴)over words, you talk too long and your listeners feel tired of your speech. Later you think, “Thank goodness, it’s over. I’m just no good at public speaking. I hope I never have to do that again.”
Cheer up! It doesn’t have to be that bad. You can do the following things to take the pain out of speech making. Ask yourself the purpose of your speech. What is the occasion(场合)? Why are you speaking? Then, collect as many facts as you can on your subject. Spend plenty of time doing your research. Then spend plenty of time putting your material in good order so that your speech is clear and easy to follow. Use as many examples as possible and use pictures, charts and graphs if they help you make your points clearer. Never forget your listeners. Don’t talk over their heads and don’t talk down to them. Respect your listeners. They will enjoy your thoughtfulness.
Just remember: Be prepared. Know your subject, your listeners and the occasion. Be brief. Say what you have to say and then stop. And be yourself. Let your personality come through so that you make person-to-person contact with your listeners.
If you follow the simple things, you’ll see that you don’t have to be afraid of public speaking. In fact, you may find the experience so enjoyable that you volunteer to make more speeches! You’re not confident yet. Give it a try and see what happens.

Travelling is a very good activity. When you get tired of your work or study, and when you have free time, you can go to a beautiful place to enjoy the beauty of nature or other cities. You can breathe fresh air, meet different people and make friends with them. It’s good for your health to do so.

When you go on a trip, you must get everything ready. Firstly, you must have clear information about the weather. Secondly, ask a friend to go with you so that you can help each other.

I once believed that a friend is a friend all the way. Now I have changed my ideas about friendships.
1. Friends of convenience(便利). They can be the people who live next door or the mothers of our children’s closest friends. Friends of convenience are good indeed. They’ll help us when we need them. They’ll look after our cats when we go on holidays. But we don’t ever get too close or tell too much. Between us, we’ll talk about being overweight but not about being sad or heart-broken. However, people still find it necessary to make friends like this.
2. Special-interest friends. These friendships aren’t deeply personal or emotional(感情上的). They lie in some shared interests, so we may have an office friend, a tennis friend, or even a shopping friend.
3. Historical friends. We all have a friend who knew us when … maybe we were back in the second grade of the primary school, when our family lived in that two-room flat downtown. He or she was the first, the only friend we told our secrets to.
The years have gone by, and we have gone different ways. But we’re still a personal part of each other’s past. We know how we looked before our teeth were straightened, and our getting together makes us think of an earlier part of ourselves, which is important and never lost.
4. Cross-generational friends. These are friendships that from across generations(代). I have in my own life a true friend, a woman of 65, who is clever, who listens well, and who means not only an ideal mother to me but also the person I’d like to be when I grow up.
Best friends, I believe, totally love and help each other.

The famous scientist and thinker, Charles Darwin, was born on February 12, 1809. His family lived not far from the River Severn, England.
Charles’ father was a well-known doctor and the son of a still greater doctor and scientist. Charles’ father hoped that his son would also become a doctor.
As a boy Charles liked to go for walks in the fields and forests. He watched nature and compared what he saw with everything he had read in science books. He also liked collecting very much. He collected many things: eggs, stones, and leaves. His father did not like this, as Charles was not studying very well at school.
At the age of sixteen, Darwin was sent to Cambridge University in order to become a doctor. But he was interested in the history of nature.
Then he studied at Cambridge University until 1831.
Some time later, he heard that the ship Beagle was going on a trip to South America and wanted a scientist. His professor advised him to go. He said the trip would be just for Darwin. So when the ship left England in December 1831, Darwin was on it. The research lasted almost five years. The Beagle studied the waters in the sea near South America. It also visited New Zealand, Australia and islands in the Pacific. Darwin saw many new plants and animals. He collected all kinds of plants, which he sent home from the places he visited.
When he returned home, Darwin was warmly greeted by his families and many friends.
In 1842, Darwin went to live in Kent(肯特), where he continued his studies of the changes in nature. Darwin understood that plants and animals are not always the same, and that they really change.
By 1859, Darwin had finished his famous book The Origin of Species(《物种起源》). It made a great hit in the world of science. He was opposed(反对) by the church and even by some scientists. But later, more and more scientists agreed with him.
Darwin continued his studies in science until he died in 1882.

Chinese Culture
While China is almost the same size as the US in area, it is home to about 1.3 billion people. It has a special culture with a very long history.

Food plays an important role for Chinese families. Different foods have special meanings. The most obvious(明显的) difference is that Chinese people eat their meals with chopsticks. One of the main foods in Chinese culture is rice. Tea is a favorite drink and it is popular in the market.

Chinese Language
Chinese is a complex(复杂的) language. Chinese writing developed almost 4,000 years ago and may even be older. Chinese writing has thousands of characters. A character represents(代表) a word and also a meaning. Unlike English, there are no spaces in Chinese writing. Besides Standard Chinese, or Putonghua, Chinese people speak six other forms of the language, and there are many kinds of dialects(方言).

The 2015 Nobel Prizes have been announced. Sweden's Nobel Prize committee said the Nobel Prize for medicine will go to scientists from Ireland, Japan and China. William Campbell from Ireland and Satoshi Omura from Japan share the prize for their discovery of the drug avcrmectin(除虫菌素).The prize for medicine is also going to Tu Youyou. She discovered artemisinin(青蒿素). Artemisinin is a drug that has greatly lowered the number of people who die from malaria(疟疾). The committee said her greatest achievement is that discovery of artemisinin has given the world new ways to fight against two serious diseases. That's why Ms. Tu got the prize. It is said those diseases influence millions of people every year.
Ms. Tu is the chief professor at the China Academy of Traditional Medicine. She is also the first Chinese citizen to be awarded the Nobel Prize in medicine. It took her great and painful effort to make the great discovery. She always tested the medicine by herself and her liver(肝) got badly hurt. From 1972 to 2012, Ms. Tu went through about 40 failures before she succeeded. But she never gave up and always fought on.
A member of the Nobel committee said that the award for Tu Youyou is the result of a great change in the way that Chinese do scientific research. He says China has spent a lot of money on this kind of research. This member also said that the work of the three scientists could help end the health risk of diseases affecting 3.4 billion people.
Is Ms. Tu the first Chinese citizen to win the Nobel prize for medicine?
How long did it take her to make the discovery?
What is her greatest achievement?
