Several days ago, I heard that a dear friend of mine had killed herself. I was deep in sorrow by the sudden news. I can"t keep calm any longer. 1_____.
Life is so precious. If we can slip into death in an impulsive (冲动的) moment, what use in all our
efforts and hopes? Our families, our ambitions, everything is flung into total darkness. 2_____.
Nevertheless, the suicide rate increases year by year, particularly of young people. Reasons may vary
from person to person, 3_____.
First, today"s young people are morally weak. They hunger for success but can not face failure; they are eager to be understood but afraid of opening their hearts to others. They live in a wide world, from east to west, ancient to present, but their hearts beat in a narrow desert, closed tight, unable to communicate. Each becomes an isolated fortress (孤堡), lonely, and weak.
4_____. As a young teacher, she was devoted to her work but was disappointed with her students" occasional failures. She fell in love with a colleague but he deserted her. With no close friends, disappointed at work and in love, death seemed to her the only remaining choice and she took it.
Another reason for the weakness of today"s youth, in my opinion, comes from society"s pressures.
5_____. On the other hand, society refuses to accept that children sometimes do fail. But failure is more important because it can teach the young how to win next time.
What can we do to save the desperate young?
B. yet I think they share something in common
C. The young are forced to try too hard to succeed
D. My friend is a good example of that
E. And death allows no time for regret
F. people love success and are afraid of failure
G. failure is the mother of success

What do you think of that? Fashionable? Some of today"s teenagers are big fans of such a look.
1____ _.
The headmaster of a school in central Italy has asked students to stop wearing low-rise jeans
that expose underwear and parts of the body. His request came after a class trip, when he saw one
boy"s baggy trousers slide to his feet. 2______________.
But in Italy, a nation that takes fashion very seriously, the suggestion caused a debate among
parents, teachers and students. The issue is whether the headmaster"s request will limit students"
freedom- or whether dress in Italian schools is too casual.
3______________."We do not want to kick fashion out," the headmaster explained, "but
extrems (极端) of fashion like this are not right in school." Many other schools have now requested
that their students also stop wearing such trousers.
4 _________. Ludovica Gaudio, 14, wore extremely low trousers exposing orange underwear
in class. It was cold, so she wore a matching orange scarf. 5 _________________. "I don"t really
feel comfortable in those sort of jeans," said Sarah Lattanzi, "in winter, when dressed like that, it"s
quite cold and I am afraid my stomach will ache."
B A parents" group praised the move in favor of good taste, while others advised schools to stop worrying about fashion and fix up old school buildings.
C. He pointed out that this way of dressing is not suitable for school.
D. Most students have simply ignored the request
E. Another 14-year-old said she would probably respect the request, simply for practical reasons
F. let us see that Italian students react differently to schools" requests
G. schools should pay attention to things more important than students" clothes
ways, a diary and a blog are very 2 . But what makes blogging different from writing in a(n) 3 diary?
The biggest difference is that a blog is much more 4 than a diary. Usually, a teenager treats his diary like a book full of 5 that he does not want to 6 with others.
It"s interesting that someone who writes in a blog 7 a diary will probably write"nearly the same
information.
I have a little sister, and sometimes I go online to read her 8 . She writes about things like waking up early for swimming practice and not studying enough for her chemistry test. 9 I was her age, I wrote
about the same thing, but 10 in my dairy. Then, after I had finished writing, I would hide my diary in a
secret place because I was 11 that my sister might read it.
The biggest 12 with blogging is that anyone can read what you write. If I was angry with a friend
during high school and wrote something 13 about him in my diary,he would never know. 14 , if my
sister ever wrote something bad about a friend,that friend might 15 her blog and get angry.
There are also 16 to blogging,of course. If I was feeling sad one day and wrote in my diary,
" Nobody cares about me…" Because no one would 17 about it. However, if my sister wrote the same sentence in her blog, her best friend would quickly 18 and tell her how much they 19 her. Blog help
people 20 in contact with their friends and know what the people around them are doing.

television. People who have such an addiction are compulsive(强迫的): they have a very powerful
psychological need that they feel they must satisfy. According to psychologists, many people are
compulsive spenders. They feel that they must spend money. This compulsion, like most others, is
impossible to explain reasonably. For compulsive spenders who buy on credit(以赊欠方式), charge
accounts are even more exciting than money. In other words, compulsive spenders feel that with credit,
they can do anything. Their pleasure in spending large amounts is actually greater than the pleasure that
they get from the things they buy.
There is even a special psychology of bargain hunting. To save money, of course, most people look
for sales, low prices, and discounts. Compulsive bargain hunters, however, often buy things that they
don"t need just because they are cheap. They want to believe that they are helping their budgets(预算),
but they are really playing an exciting game. When they can buy something for less than other people,
they feel that they are winning. Most people, experts claim, have two reasons for their behavior: a good
reason for the things that they do and the real reason.
It is not only scientists, of course, who understand the psychology of spending habits, but also
business people. Stores, companies, and advertisers use psychology to increase business. They consider
people"s needs for love, power, or influence, their basic values, their beliefs and opinions, and so on in their advertising and sales methods. Psychologists often use a method called "behavior therapy(疗法)" to help
individuals solve their personality problems. In the same way, they can help people who feel that they have problems with money.
B. in order to satisfy his or her basic needs in life
C. just to meet his or her strong psychological need
D. and feels he or she is cheated
B. Business people and advertisers can use the psychology of people"s spending habits to increase sales.
C. Business people understand the psychology of compulsive buying better than scientists do.
D. Compulsive bargain hunters do not have problems with money.
B. The habits of compulsive spenders.
C. A special psychology of bargain hunting.
D. The use of the psychology of spending habits in business.
B. need special treatment
C. are really beyond drugs
D. can never get any help to solve their problems with money
These days, people are concerned about the growing number of kids who are overweight.
Do you know why? Kids know it"s a problem, too. We recently asked 1, 168 boys and girls about
the problem. More than half of them (52%) said that too many kids were overweight.
"This is important because knowing there is a problem is the first step to solve the problem," said
Dr Sandra Hassink, a doctor in Delaware who helps kids with weight problems.
What does "overweight" mean? Most people who are overweight have too much body fat. The
person who is overweight weighs more than a healthy person, considering age, height, and whether
the person is a boy or a girl.
When asked why some kids were overweight, many of the kids (54%) said it was because
overweight kids didn"t exercise enough or eat right. Others said that kids were overweight because
fast food restaurants served the wrong foods.
The research also asked the kids some questions about themselves. Most of the group (78%) said
they were either the right weight or underweight. The rest of the group thought they were overweight,
with 4% of the kids saying that they were very overweight.
The research results don"t prove that 4% of the kids were very overweight, but it shows that 4%
of the kids believed they were overweight and answered in that way. On top of that ,54% of the kids
said they worried or stressed out about their weight, with more girls feeling in this way. Of those who
said they never worry about their weight, 59% were boys and 33% were girls.
