In winter,when the sun hides behind the clouds,everyone feels a bit low. You may be tired and find you want to sleep all the time. What you may not know is:you are suffering from (患有) SAD(季节性抑郁症).
But don"t worry—it"s normal. Colder temperatures and fewer hours of daylight can steal your energy and put you in a bad mood.

When her mother asks her what"s wrong,Linda doesn"t know what to tell her. Linda may not realize it yet,but she"s suffering from SAD. It causes people to sleep,eat sweet food and get sad or angry for no reason.
About 15 percent of American people now suffer from SAD in winter according to the US Department of Health. The US government has taken measures to help people beat it. Local communities encourage people to take part in activities such as exercise,dance or art. And they advise people not to eat too much sweet food.
Like in the US,cold northern European countries such as Finland,Iceland and Russia see a large number of people suffer from SAD every year. So,the sunlamp is widely used in these countries. It"s an electric lamp which is just like a “little sun” that gives off light to make people think the sun is shining and feel better.

Bad breath (口臭) is a big problem. You can make people around you feel bad when you’ re talking to them.
Why do some people have bad breath? If you don’t brush your teeth, germs (细菌) will live in your mouth and between your teeth and you will have bad breath. You may also have bad breath because of foods like onions.
How can we stop bad breath? Some people say that gargling ( 漱口) can make bad breath go away, but it isn’t true. Gargling only stops bad breath for a short time. Some people also say that brushing your teeth can stop bad breath. Most people only brush their teeth for 30 to 45 seconds and it doesn’t work. To clean all of your teeth, you should brush for about 3 minutes each time.
If you don’t want to have bad breath, please look after your teeth and mouth well.

Who help you most in your everyday life, families, charities, or friends? Don’t forget about your neighbours! Neighbours help you more than anyone else in your daily life. So it is important to have good neighbours.
What does it take to be a good neighbour? Here is some advice.
Good fences (栅栏) make good neighbours. One of the most important things in being a good neighbour is to respect (尊重) a person’ s privacy (隐私). If you go rushing over as soon as new neighbours move in, they may think you are going to come over at all hours of the day, not respecting their privacy.
It is always a good idea to be friendly to everyone in the neighbourhood. This can not only put you on good terms (关系和睦) with them, but will also be a kind of protection for your family and home. If you wave as they drive by or offer a friendly hello while they are out to work, they will think you respect them. If you are friendly to them, they are much more likely to watch out for anything wrong going on around your home while you are out and let you know if anything happens.
Another way of being a good neighbour is to be helpful in their hour of need. If you see that they are in need of a helping hand, it is good to offer your help. They will do the same if you are in trouble.
In a word, if you respect a person’s privacy, treat them kindly and be helpful when you see they are in need, you will be a great neighbour and anyone would be happy to have you next door!
小题1:    on how to be a good neighbour
小题2:    are good neighbours important?

How to be a good neighbour?

Be小题8:  
in their hour of need
Offer neighbours a helping hand when they are in need, and they will do the same when you have小题9:   .

Van Gogh, the Dutch artist, is famous for his amazing use of color and shape. Born in 1853, he was painting at a time when art was changing. A long time ago, artists tried to make their paintings look real like photographs. But later on, art became more about the artist’s own ideas. If you see a Van Gogh, it won’t look like the real world. It will look even more beautiful.
Some of Van Gogh’s most famous paintings are of the nature and flowers, such as Sunflowers. He also painted many wonderful self-portraits (自画像). However, Van Gogh was a troubled man. At one point, he cut off his own ear.
Van Gogh is now one of the world’s most famous artists. But he died at the age of 37, alone and poor. Almost nobody knew or cared about his art at that time. Some say that his madness was the price he paid for his art.

Nobody likes making mistakes. But, no one is perfect. If you can learn from mistakes correctly, they can move you forward. Therefore, we should analyse how you can learn from them.
If you have made mistakes that harm other people, it is important to offer a sincere apology (道歉)in person. A good apology will likely make the other person forgive you. If you refuse to apologize, the person hurt by you will hold it against you.
If you go through life afraid to make a mistake, you will spend most of you life doing nothing. There is no harm in making mistakes; it is an essential part of going forward. The more duties you take, the more likely you will make mistakes.
Unluckily, it is our natural instinct(本能) to justify(为……辩解) our actions. When you make a mistake, you will first blame someone else. When mistakes are made, the boss is unlikely to be interested in justifications. Sometimes it is best to say, very simply--yes, I made a mistake.
Mistakes happen for various reasons. To avoid(避免)repeating them, you need to understand the main reason. For example, you may have made a mistake by saying some unkind words. If you make mistakes because you are tired, try to get more sleep; if you are stressed, look at ways to relax and keep away from the stress of work.
You should avoid feeling guilty about making mistakes, but at the same time, you should make a decision to learn from them. If you repeat the same mistakes, it shows you aren’t making progress and they cause repeating suffering. Often mistakes are caused by bad habits. To avoid making the same mistakes you need to break these bad habits. The sooner, the better.
