| The singer, Mick Jagger, of the Rolling Stones sings a song that tells people they can"t always get what they want but if we try sometimes we can get what we need. The past years in my life my parents have told me this saying many times. I"ve always complained about the quote(引语). Although over time I have told myself to learn from it. This year my girlfriend flew off to college in West Palm, Florida. This has been a killer for me because I haven"t been able to see her and she is having a rough time in school. The last two months have been hard but we are working through it. I have been trying to get my dad to buy me a plane ticket to go down there. My dad told me if I brought him some money he would help me pay for the ticket. I started to complain to him because I had no way of getting any money to give him. I spent several days and nights thinking of ways to earn money to go to see my girlfriend. I finally came to the conclusion that I would get a job and work hard to earn some money to give to my dad. I applied to Safeway and I ended up getting the job. I have been working at Safeway for about a month now and work hard to earn money to go to see my girlfriend. The other day my mum had surprised me and told me that she asked her boss if she could use their business miles(旅费) to buy me a ticket down to Florida for two weeks. I was very thankful and told her I would help pay for anything that I have to. The thought of me working hard and getting a job showed my mum that I really cared and was trying my best to be a successful person. I believe that you can"t always get what you want but if you try sometimes, you get what you need. | |

| Frankly, I appreciate myself very much.Yes, I admit I"m in many aspects not as good as other people, but I don"t think I"m always not good.When I find what I"ve done or written is okay, I"ll remain pleased with myself for quite a few days, and if I receive praise for it, I"ll even become so excited as to add a few words to reward myself. True, I"m not modest at all.People may call me conceited (自负的). But I think otherwise. I appreciate other people.I appreciate anything good.Isn"t it unfair to forget appreciating myself while appreciating others? We Chinese generally tend to be modest, and we take pride in being so.For example, a Chinese man will call his own wife zhuojing, meaning"my humble wife", and his own writings zhuozuo, meaning"my poor writings". But if you call his wife a "rustic (乡村的) woman" or his writings"trash", he would, I"m sure, declare he would make a clean break with you angrily.As a matter of fact, there is probably no difference at all between what is said by him and you. I don"t think it"s wrong of you to freely praise yourself if you"re really worthy of praise.As we know, there is an old Chinese saying disparaging (蔑视) a melon seller, named Lao Wang, who keeps praising his own goods.Well, why can"t he praise his melons if they are really sweet and juicy? Lao Wang sells melons for a living.How could he carry on business if he, by imitating the affectations (装模作样) of us intellectuals, were to show false modesty about his melons?He would sure enough die of starvation. Selfappreciation is therefore a key to professional dedication and enjoyment of work.Needless to say, the same is true of those who make a living with their pen.One will lose confidence in writing when he stops admiring his own essays. 1. We know from the first three paragraphs that the author________. A. is modest in some way B. is pleased to be a good writer C. is too conceited D. thinks it unfair to appreciate others 2. What do we know about the author"s attitude towards Chinese modesty according to Paragraph 4? A. Supportive. B. Negative. C. Neutral. D. Careless. 3. The author mentions the example of Lao Wang to prove that______. A. Lao Wang is very proud of himself B. melon sellers should praise their goods C. reasonable selfappreciation is good D. writers should learn from Lao Wang 4. The purpose of the passage is to encourage readers to be________. A. modest B. considerate C. respectful D. confident | |

| Age plays a major part in people who are infected with cold, ie, in people who suffer from cold infection. A study done by University of Michigan, has shown information that seems to be true for the general population. Babies are the most cold infected group, generally more than six colds in their first year. Boys have more colds than girls up to the age of three. After three, girls are easier to get infected with cold than boys, and teenage girls get three colds a year to boys" two. The general cold infections continue to get less into adults. Elderly people who are in good health have as few as one or two colds every year. One interesting thing is found among people in their twenties, especially women, who show a rise in cold infection, because people in this age group are most likely to have young children. The study has also found that economy plays an important role as well. With more and more income, the frequency at which colds are reported in the family is getting lower and lower. Families with the lowest income usually suffer about a third ally forces people to live in rooms more crowded than rooms owned by richer people, and the crowding usually leads to more chances for the cold virus to travel from person to person. Low income may also have an effect on our diet. Many scientists believe that a poorer diet usually leads into more possibilities of cold infection. | |
