wise people say. You can"t be good at your studies or work well when you are ill. If you have a headache,
toothache, backache, earache or bad pain in the stomach, if you complain of a bad cough, if you run a high
temperature and have a bad cold, or if you suffer from high or low blood pressure, I think you should go to
the doctor. The doctor will examine your throat, feel your pulse, test your blood pressure, take your
temperature, sound your heart and lungs, test your eyes, check your teeth or have your chest X-rayed. After
that he will advise some treatment, or some medicine. The only thing you have to do is follow his advice.
Speaking about doctor"s advice, I can"t help telling you a funny story.
An old gentleman came to see the doctor. The man was very ill. He told the doctor about his weakness,
memory loss and serious problems with his heart and lungs. The doctor examined him and said there was
no medicine for his disease. He told his patient to go to a quiet place for a month and have a good rest. He
also advised him to eat a lot of meat, drink two glasses of red wine every day and take long walks. In other
words, the doctor advised him to follow the rule:"Eat at pleasure, drink with measure and enjoy life as it is."
The doctor also said that if the man wanted to be well again, he shouldn"t smoke more than one cigarette a
day.
A month later the gentleman came into the doctor"s office. He looked cheerful and happy. He thanked the
doctor and said that he had never felt a healthier man.
"But you know, doctor," he said, "it"s not easy to begin smoking at my age."

your teenage years will be a special part of your life. They will teach you some of the most important lessons
about who you are. This may help you understand different kinds of relationships, what makes each
relationship special, and how to communicate in a positive way.
What makes a relationship healthy?
_____: The most important part of any healthy relationship between two people is being able to talk and
listen to each other. You and the other person can find out what your common interests are. You can share
your feelings with the other person and trust that he or she will be there to listen to you and support you. In
healthy relationships, people don"t lie. Communication is based on honesty and trust. By listening carefully and
sharing your thoughts and feelings with other people, you show them that they play an important part in your
life.
Respect and Trust: In healthy relationships, you learn to respect and trust important people in your life.
Disagreements may still happen, but you learn to stay calm and talk about how you feel. Talking calmly helps
you to understand the real reason for not getting along. It makes it much easier to figure out how to deal with
it. In healthy relationships, working through disagreements often makes the relationship stronger. In healthy

D. Advice on Healthy Relationship
several years ago and developed a friendship that began with small talk about their pets. This quickly turned
to afternoon get-together, where kids, dogs and grown-ups formed firm friendships.
Now the pair and their pets meet several times a week on the grass near Sandringham College, a place
for a huge network of dog owners who have formed all kinds of friendships and a good old-fashioned sense
of community. Dogs, it seem, are good for social life.
The combination (结合) of excited kids and dogs could be a recipe (处方) for disaster and Miller says it
is surprisingly harmonious (和谐的). "There are some other people who don"t have kids but have started to
meet us quite regularly," she says. "the other day, there were seven dogs, five adults and six children all
walking around the park together."
Friendships formed through pets seem to cross cultural and age barriers (阻碍) and often include helping
when someone is sick or needs help to care for a bet. A woman says she"s answered several SOS calls from
elderly people who have become ill suddenly and need a help. "The friendships are such that you see these
people every day and you get to know them and they trust you with their pets and know they can call you at
the last minute," she says.
One dog owner says that, even as a child, she noticed how dogs could act as conversational ice-breakers
for adults. Like people, dogs are also social creatures. "Dogs need to meet others," she says, "they are pack
animals."
B. polite greetings to the pets
C. short conversations about the pets
D. lots of work of walking dogs
B. People can live harmonious lives with dogs.
C. People without children are lonely.
D. The park is very crowded.
B. They can help himher when a person is in need.
C. It"s easy for people to call each other.
D. People can only get help at the last minute.
B. are like people in many ways
C. are unnecessary for children
D. naturally like getting together
friendships don"t last long. To have a friend, you must learn to be one. You must learn to treat your friend
the way you want your friend to treat you. Learning to be a good friend means learning three rules: be honest;
be generous; be understanding.
Honesty is where a good friendship starts. Friends must be able to trust one another. If you do not tell
the truth, people usually find out. If a friend finds out that you haven"t been honest, you may lose your friend"s
trust. Good friends always rely on one another to speak and act honestly.
Generosity means sharing and sharing makes a friendship grow. You do not have to give your lunch
money or your clothes. Naturally you will want to share your ideas and feelings. These can be very valuable
to a friend. They tell your friend what is important to you. By sharing them, you help your friend know better.
Sooner or later everyone needs understanding and help with each other. Something may go wrong at
school. Talking about the problem can make it easier to solve. Turning to a friend can be a first step in solving
the problem. So to be a friend you must listen and understand. You must try to put yourself in your friend"s
place so that you can understand the problem better.
No two friendships are exactly alike. But all true friendships have three things in common. If you plan to
keep your friends, you must practice honesty, generosity and understanding.
B. some people receive friendship but don"t give friendship back
C. those who give others friendship receive friendship from others
D. they don"t know friendship is something serious
B. the base of friendship
C. as important as money
D. more important than anything else
B. Sharing your mind with your friends is of great value.
C. Discussing your problems with your friends often helps to solve the problem.
D. A friend who gives you his lunch money is a true friend.
B. generosity and sharing
C. your ideas and feelings
D. your clothes
B. A Friend in Need Is a Friend indeed
C. How to Be Friends
D. Three Important Points in Life
article or do you appear through smoke and mirrors? I find that if I try to be something
I"m not, I feel unsure of myself and take out a part from my PBA (personal bank account ).
I love how singer Judy Garland put it, "Always be a first-class version of yourself,
instead of a second-class version of somebody else."
Then there"s honesty in our actions. Are you honest at school, with your parents, and
with your boss? If you"ve ever been dishonest, I think we all have, try being honest, and
notice how whole it makes you feel. Remember, you can"t do wrong and feel right. This story
by Jeff is a good example of that:
In my second year of study, there were three kids in my math class who didn"t do well.
I was really good at it. I would charge them three dollars for each test that I helped
them pass. I"d write on a little piece of paper all the right answers, and hand them off.
At first I felt like I was making money, kind of a nice job. I wasn"t thinking about
how it could hurt all of us. After a while I realized I shouldn"t do that anymore, because
I wasn"t really helping them. They weren"t learning anything, and it would only get harder
down the road. Cheating certainly wasn"t helping me.
It takes courage to be honest when people all around you are getting away with cheating
on tests, lying to their parents, and stealing at work. But, remember, every act of
honesty is a deposit into your PBA and will build strength.
B. Don"t copy others or you can"t be the first class.
C. Make efforts to be the first instead of the second.
D. Don"t learn from others unless they"re excellent.
B. A bad thing can be turned into a good one.
C. Helping others cheat can do good to nobody.
D. One should realize the wrong in his bad deeds.
B. it"s difficult to be honest when others are not
C. one should be honest when making a deposit
D. honesty in one"s actions can help him in the future
Years ago, when I started looking for my first job, a wise man advised, "Barbara, be
enthusiastic! Enthusiasm will take you further than any amount of experience." How right
they were!
"Nothing great was ever achieved without enthusiasm." wrote Ralph Waldo Emerson. It is
the paste that helps you hang on there when the going tough. It is the inner voice that
whispers, "I can do it!" when others shout, "No, you can"t!" It took years and years for
the early work of Barara McClintock, a geneticist who won the 1983 Nobel Prize in medicine,
to be generally accepted. Yet she didn"t stop working on her experiments. Work was such a
deep pleasure for her that she never thought of stopping.
We are all born with wide-eyed, enthusiastic wonder and it is this childlike wonder
that gives enthusiastic people such youthful air, whatever their age was. At 90, cellist
Palblo Cassls would start his day by playing Bach. As the music flowed through his fingers
his stooped shoulders would strengthen and joy would reappear in his eyes. As author and
poet Samuei Ulman once wrote, "Years wrinkle (使起皱纹) the skin,but to give up enthusiasm
wrinkles the soul."
Enthusiastic people also love what they do, regardless of money or power. Patricia
Mellrath, retired director of the Missouri Repertory Theatre in Kansas City, was once asked
where she got her enthusiasm. She replied, "My father, a lawyer long ago told me, I never
made a dime until I stopped working for money."
If we cannot do what we love as a full-time career, we can as a hobby. Elizabeth Layton
was 68 before she began to draw. This activity ended periods of depression that had trouble
d her for at least 30 years,and the quality of her led one critic (批评家)to say, "I"d like
to call Layton a genius."
We can"t afford to waste tears on "might-have-been". We need to turn the tears into
sweat as we go after "what-can-be". We need to live each moment whole-heartedly, which all
our senses-including pleasure in the sweet smell of a back-yard garden, the simple picture
of a six-year-old, the beauty of a rainbow.
B. 色彩
