Please, please, please! Hug your kids every single day and tell them that you love them! Let that be your nightly routine. Let them go to sleep feeling loved and good about themselves, even if you have been fighting. I have a seventeen-year-old son who hugs every- day. Every night before he goes to bed we do a devotional together and pray. I will continue this with him as long as he is under my roof. I have showered him with love his whole life, as well as my family, and he is one of the most loving kids I have ever seen. Every human being needs physical touch, especially young children and teenagers. We need 7 hugs a day to be healthy. Each hug we receive rtuses our hemoglobin (血 红素). And as one of the other parents had commented, so many teenagers that do not get any physical touch at all from their parents will seek to get it in inappro priate ways. We only have them for just a little while, they will soon be gone and we won"t be able to show them our love then! Shower them every single day! You will never regret it and they will always feel loved! My nephew, who is like a son to me, started to become embar rassed at around age 13 for me to hug him in public. I would only get to see him on the weekends and the first time he pulled away we were at a baseball game and there were people everywhere. I just grabbed and hugged even harder when he tried to pull away and said" I don"t care if you like it or not! I love you so much and I will hug you every time I see you! "He turned very red but smiled. Dr. Dobson says that our teenagers need our love and care e- yen more as they grow older because of all of the self-doubt that the media puts on them to be perfect. Make them feel loved every day! If you don"t do it, who will? It may be uncomfortable at first but I promise it will just become second nature if you do it every day! |

In the United States, friends can be close, constant, intense, generous, and real, yet fade away in a shorttime if circumstances change. Neither side feels hurt by this. Both may exchange Christ- mas greetings for a year or two, perhaps a few letters for a while then no more. If the same two people meet again by chance, even years later, they pick up the friendship where it left out and are de- lighted. In the United States, you can feel free to visit people"s homes, share their holidays, enjoy their lives without fear that you are tak ing on a lastinS obligation (负担). Do not hesitate to accept hospi tality (热情款待) because you can"t give it in return. No one will expect you to do so for they know you are far from home. Americans will enjoy welcoming you and be pleased if you accept their hospi tality easily. Once you arrive there, the welcome will be full, warm and re al. Most visitors find themselves readily invited into many homes there. In some countries it is considered inhospitable to entertain (招待) at home, offering what is felt as only home-cooked food, not " doing something for your guest". It is felt that restaurant entertaining shows more respect and welcome. Or for other different reasons, such as crowded space, language difficulties, or family custom, out- siders are not invited into homes. In the United States, both methods are used, but it is often considered more friendly to invite a person to one"s home than to go to a public place, except in purely business relationships. So, if your host or hostess___, do not feel that you are being shown inferior (差的,低级的 ) treatment. Don"t feel neglected (被轻视的) if you do not find flowers a- waiting you in your hotel room, either. Flowers are very expensive there, hotel delivery is uncertain, arrival times are delayed, changed, or canceled (取消)-so flowers are not customarily sent as a welcoming touch. Please do not feel unwanted! Outward signsvary in different lands, the inward welcome is what matters, and this will be real. |

The idea of getting fresh water from icebergs that are pulled to populated areas and dry areas of the world was once treated as a joke more fit for cartoons than real life. But now it is being consid ered quite seriously by many nations, especially since scientists have warned that the human race will outgrow its fresh water supply faster than it runs out of food. Glaciers (冰川) are a possible source of fresh water that has been overlooked until recently. Three-quarters of the Earth"s fresh water supply is still tied up in glacial ice, a reservoir of untapped fresh water so huge that it could carry on all the rivers of the world for 1,000 years. Floating on the oceans every year are 7,659 trillion metric tons ofice covered in 10,000 icebergs that break away from the polar ice caps, more than ninety percent of them from Antarctica. Huge glaciers that widen over the shallow continental shelf give birth to icebergs throughout the year. Icebergs are not like sea ice, which is formed when the sea itself freezes, rather, they are formed entirely on land, breaking off when glaciers spread over the sea. As they flow away from the polar region, icebergs sometimes move mysteriously in a direction opposite to the wind, pulled by subsurface currents. Because they melt more slowly than smaller pieces office, icebergs have been known to drift as far north as 35 degrees south of the equator in the Atlantic Ocean. To hold them and guide them to parts of the world where they are needed would not be too difficult. The difficulty appears in other technical matters, such as the prevention of rapid melting in warmer climates and the guiding of fresh water to shore in great volume. But even if the icebergs lost half of their volume in drawing, the water they could provide would be far cheaper than that produced by removing salt from water. |
1. Why more countries consider getting fresh water from icebergs now? |
A. The population across the world changes too often. B. The huge glaciers bring too many floods recently. C. The warning from scientists and the serious situation. D. There are too many icebergs waiting for being dealt with. |
2. The underlined word "overlooked" in Paragraph 2 should mean _____. |
A. having a careful look B. succeeding in passing C. taking seriously D. failing to notice |
3. What makes getting fresh water from icebergs difficult? |
A. The high cost and fewer glaciers. B. Climate changes and practical actions. C. The slow moving speed of the icebergs. D. The time of waiting the icebergs" melting. |
4. What is the best title for the passage? |
A. lcebergs Cause Global Warming B. Get Fresh Water From Icebergs C. Solve the Problem of Water Shortage D. Look for a Better Way to Get Water |

After achieving a 9 percent GDP growth, hosting a successful Olympic Games and carrying out its first space walk the year before last, you"d think China would be happy. _____. That, at least, is the opinion of a new book written by a group of Chinese authors. China Is Not Happy was published in March,2009.It is a fol low-up to the 1996 work China Can Say No, a bestseller that complained about the influence of the West and the US in particular, on China. Thirteen years later, the authors of China Is Not. Happy list their dissatisfaction with how China is being treated in the world today. They argue that China needs to use its growing power and eco nomic resources to build its own position of preeminence (卓越). "From looking at the history of human civilization, we are most qualified to lead this world." the book says. The authors single out the US for special scorn (轻蔑)."The economic problem has shown the Chinese people that America does have problems, that what we"ve been saying is right," said one of the authors. The book has become a bestseller in many Chinese bookstores. Yet much of the response to the book has been negative. Several re- views in the Chinese media have criticized the book"s radical (激进的) opinions. The book is a way to" fish money from the pockets of the angry youth and angry elderly," wrote one critic in the China Youth Daily. Meanwhile, a well-known sociologist, Li Yinhe, has said that China needs patriotism (爱国 主义),but there is a limit. In her blog she wrote,"If we are to bully (欺负) other countries, take the world"s resources and try to lead it, we"re going over the top." |

阅读理解。 阅读下面短文,第1至5题表述了Anna, Smith,Wilkins, Crick和June在自己的生活及学习中遇 到的问题,他们需要你的帮助,请从A.B.C.D.E和F中为其选出最合适的建议。选项中有一项是多 余选项。 |
1. Anna: I get really frustrated easily, and sometimes I end up yell ing at people I love. I"m not very sure why it happens, but I have no control over it. How can I stop? 2. Smith:Some kids are making fun of me because I"m doing very well at school. Isn"t that something to be proud of? I need advice. 3. Wilkins: I am not sociable. I am really shy, and I am already a freshman in high school. I have some new friends, but I am still shy to the cool kids. Can you help me, please? 4. Crick: I always say what I feel immediately and without thinking. Sometimes I get in trouble for it or feel sorry about it later. Is speaking your mind a good or a bad thing? 5. June: I love to read! But I don"t have any time to read because of all of my activities. I don"t want to quit anything. What should I do? |
A Instead of feeling upset, you should definitely be proud of your- self. Intelligence is a quality that everyone wants, and as you get ol- der it"s going to be what people love and respect about you. Still water runs deep. I"m sure as time goes by, some of those kids making fun of you might realize how cool you actually are. B Everyone has to learn how to adapt to society and mix socially with others. No man is an island, as the saying goes. To become a so- ciable person, you must be naturally friendly. Besides, do something for a social situation. A teacher once gave me this great advice: Pre parea conversation in your head before going into an uncomfortable social situation. It sounds like a lot of work, but it"s easy and it works! Get involved in activities that interest you and you will make new friends fast. C Always keep a book with you so that you can read during pock- ets of free time. Turn some of your TV or computer time into reading time. Read for a little while right before bed, and find time to read on weekends. Also, talk to your parents about your schedule. You might not want to quit anything, but you might need to find more free time in order to have a happy balance in your life. D That feeling is your conscience, and it"s telling you that you need to confess what you did. Be brave and tell your parents. Even if they get upset when they hear about it from you, they would be even more upset to hear about it from your friend"s mom. So pick a quiet time and say. Mom, Dad, I need to tell you something, but I"m a fraid. Then spill the beans. No matter what they say, you"ll be re lieved not to have this secret any more. E First, identify what is frustrating you, then learn to calm your- self down. The next time you start feeling frustrated, stop what you"re doing and breathe deeply. Count to ten. Get up and walk around. Clear your mind before you come back to the frustrating task. If you keep a cool head, you"ll be less likely to snap at others. And if you do yell at someone, apologize and admit that it"s not that person"s fault. Then calm down and try again. F Speaking your mind can be a really good thing. Far too many people don"t, except when talking about someone behind that person"s back. However, there are times when honesty does more than good like when a girl asks if she looks fat. So in situations in which there"s no real good, you are better off keeping your thoughts to yourself. In situations in which that is not the case like when your brother asks if his breath stinks feel free to tell the truth. Just be prepared to take it in return. |

Since the prehistoric times, man has had an urge to satisfy his needs, but as we climbed the steps of evolution with giant leaps, we somehow left behind common. sense and logical thinking-we forgot that we have stopped thinking ahead of times. If you are hungry, what do you do? Grab a piece of your favorite meal and stay quiet after that? 1 But it never lets you know, because you keep it busy thinking about your favorite star and many such absurd things. When mind looses its freedom to grow, creativity gets a full stop. This might be the reason why we all sometimes think " What happens next?" " Why can"t I think?". Well this is the aftermath of using our brain for thinking of not-so-worthy things. Hunger of the mind can be actually satisfied through extensive reading. Now why reading and not watching TV? 2 Just like that to develop other aspects of our life, we have to take advantage of reading. You have innumerable number of books in this world which will answer all your "How to?" questions. 3 Now this seed is un- knowingly used by you in your future to develop new ideas. The same seed if used many times, can help you link and relate a lot of things, of which you would have never thought of in your wildest dreams! This is nothing other than creativity. The larger number of books you read, your mind will open up like never before. Also this improves your speaking skills to a large extent and also makes a sig nificant contribution to your vocabulary in writing. 4 Actually, I had a problem in speaking English fluently, but as I read, I could improve significantly. 5 So guys do join me and give food for your thoughts by reading, reading and more reading. Now what are you waiting for? |
A. Soon you will find no difficulty employing the right words when speaking. B. The interesting part of the book is stored in your mind as a seed. C. I am still on the path of improvement to satisfy my thirst. D. Just like your stomach, even your mind is hungry. E. Because reading has been the most educative tool used by us right from the childhood. F. Within no time you never seem to run out of the right words at the right time. G. Because watching TV too often will make you a" couch potato". |
