of guys spend plenty of time in front of the mirror. They care just as much as girls do about their body
image.
Body image is a person"s opinions and feelings about his or her own body and physical
appearance. 1 You appreciate your body for its capabilities and accept its imperfections.
2 Here are some ideas.
Recognize your strengths. Different body types are good for different things. What does your body
do well? Maybe your speed, strength, or coordination makes you better than others at a certain sport.
That may be basketball, table tennis, mountain biking, dancing, or even running. Or perhaps you have
nonsports skills, like drawing, painting, singing, playing a musical instrument, writing, or acting. 3
Exercise regularly. Exercise can help you look well and feel good about yourself. Good physiques
(体形) don"t just happen. 4 A healthy habit can be as simple as exercising 20 minutes to 1 hour three
days a week. Working out can also lift your spirits.
Respect your body! Practicing good habits-regular showering; taking care of your teeth, hair, and
skin; wearing clean clothes, and so on-can help you build a positive body image.
5 Your body is just one part of who you are. Your talent for comedy a quick wit (智慧), and all
the other things make you unique. So try not to let small imperfections take over.
A. Use this as an opportunity to discover what you"re good at.
B. Be yourself.
C. Having a positive body image means feeling satisfied with the way you look.
D. Just explore talents that you feel good about.
E. They take hard work, regular workouts, and a healthy diet.
F. The good news is that selfimage and body image can be changed.
G. So, what can you do to develop a positive body image?
Normally a student must attend a number of courses in order to graduate, and each course which he
attends gives him a grade which he may count towards a degree. In many American universities the total
work for a degree is made up of thirty-six courses each lasting for one term. Generally, a course is made
up of three classes per week for fifteen weeks; while attending a university a student will probably attend
four or five courses during each term. Normally a student would expect to take four years attending two
terms each year. It is possible to spread the period of work for the degree over a longer period. It is also
possible for a student to move between one university and another during his degree course, though this is not done as a regular practice.
For e
very course that follows a student is given a grade, which is recorded, and the student can get it to show his future employers. All this sets a constant pressure and strain of work, but in spite of this some
students still find time for great activities in student affairs. They show much interest in elections to positions in student organizations performed by students who advise the academic authorities (权威人士). Any
student who is thought to have broken the rules, for example, by cheating is to appear before a student
court. With the large numbers of students, the operation of the system h
as something to do with a certain
amount of activity. A student who has held one of these positions of authority is much respected and it will be of benefit to him later in his career (生涯).

C. 20

D. such positions are usually well paid
are the top four travel destinations in Africa:
Tanzania-Serengeti NP
During the annual migration, when the wildebeests and zebras pack__up and leave their living areas
to find fresher ones, the Serengeti is an astonishing place to be. It"s a very good travel spot in Africa at
other times of the year too but the migration has been ranked by many as one of the wonders of the
natural world.
Kenya-Masai Mara NP
If you want to see the big cats, this wildlife park is the best of the best. Lion, leopard and cheetah
abound and they are relatively easy to spot because of the grassland vegetation which means you get
good views for miles around. Another big plus is the fact that going offroad is allowed and it is a big
advantage because the animals will rarely oblige you and stay next to the major roads.
South Africa-Kruger National Park
For the variety of species no other place in Africa can come close to the Kruger Park. And because
it is so large it has a number of different ecosystems that you can pass through in your search for animals
and birds. It is one of the best managed parks in Africa and the accommodation is wellequipped, too.
Zambia-South Luangwa National Park
South Luangwa is a diamond in the rough, just waiting for enough exposure to bring it to its rightful
place in the crown of prime Africa trips. It has been regarded as one of the best places in Africa to see
the special leopard and it is the birthplace of the walking travel.
B. suffer
C. gather
D. scatter
B. there are a lot of high trees
C. it is the largest park in Africa
D. the hotels own enough rooms
B. it is the best park in Africa
C. they can see wildlife on foot
D. it is the best wonder in the world
B. discuss some problems in African travel industry
C. persuade more people to travel to Africa
D. introduce to us some top natural parks in Africa
say keeping a mediumsized dog has the same ecological impact as driving 10,000 km a year in a 4.6
liter Land Cruiser.
"We"re not actually saying it is time to eat the dog. We"re just saying that we need to think about and
know the ecological impact of some of the things we do and that we take for granted."
Constructing and driving the jeep for a year requires 0.41 hectares of land, while growing and
manufacturing a dog"s food takes about 0.84 hectares-or 1.1 hectares in the case of a large dog such
as a German shepherd.
Convincing flesheating cats and dogs to go vegetarian for the sake of the planet is a nonstarter, the
Vales say. Instead they recommend keeping "greener", smaller, and more sustainable pets, such as
goldfish, chickens or rabbits.
The book"s playful title, and serious suggestion that pet animals may be usefully "recycled", by being
eaten by their owners or turned into pet food when they die, may not appeal to animal fans.
Annoying as the idea may be, the question is valid given the planet"s growing population and limited
resources, Robert Vale said.
"Issues about sustainability are increasingly becoming things that are going to require us to make
choices which are as difficult as eating your dog. It"s not just about changing your light bulbs or taking
a cloth bag to the supermarket," he said.
"It"s about much more challenging and difficult issues," he added. "Once you see where cats and
dogs fit in your overall balance of things, you might decide to have the cat but not also to have the two
cars and the three bathrooms and be a meat eater yourself."
B. create a vivid image
C. show writing skills
D. arouse people"s concern
B. the neglected ecological impact
C. some familiar examples
D. some actual figures
B. Drivers.
C. Animal fans.
D. The authorities.
B. Inspiring.
C. Inviting.
D. Touching.
On my path to the great distant mountain peak, I came to a wide river. Looking far to the right and
the left, I saw no 1 , and pondered how to cross. Suddenly a pretty little 2 appeared, came to the
shore and offered to take me across, to 3 me in completing my journey.
The trip started 4 , and I was pleased with the little boat, and 5 for the assistance it provided.
There were a few areas of 6 waters, one that even spun us around a few times, but presently we
reached the far 7 .
The trip had been so 8 , my gratitude and happiness so full, that I 9 to leave that little boat, even
though I knew I must, to continue my journey. Much as I wanted to 10 , to spend more time drifting on
the river in that little boat, the mountain beckoned (举手招唤), and my 11 had been set.
As I 12 my journey, I kept looking back at that little boat with deep 13 . It had been so
pleasant and had 14 me across the great river; I had grown to 15 that boat deeply. Yet I knew that
the boat had its 16 in the river, and that it couldn"t follow my path to the mountain. 17 I tried to take
that boat along, it could not have made the journey with me, and would have stopped my own 18 .
And as I watched, the little boat turned around and went back to the far shore, there to assist yet
another 19 the path to the mountain. And I realized how"all 20 together for good", for each part of
this magnificent universe perfectly plays its role in assisting all other parts.
