| Knowing about yourself not only means finding out what you"re good at and what you like, but also means discovering what you"re not good at and what you don"t like. Both help you to see your aim in life. Although most students would be unhappy if they failed a very difficult physics examination, they have in fact learned a lot about themselves. They know that they should not become engineers or physical scientists. So failing can help a student to live a happier life if he learns something from it. They may then decide on their aims and choose the work they like and are fit for. It is impossible to decide whether you like something until you have tried it. If you decide to play the piano, you need to take more than one lesson before knowing whether you are really interested in it or able to do well. It is not enough if you want to be a great pianist. You also have to like the hard practice and long training. If you enjoy being a great pianist but hate the work, forget it. It"s a good plan to try as many ideas as possible when you are young. Then you will find out what your true interests are. | |||
| 1. If you say you really know yourself, _____. | |||
| A. you know what you don"t like B. you know what you are good at C. you have no interest in your work D. you"ve got the whole picture of yourself | |||
| 2. Failing can turn into something good _____. | |||
| A. if you have aim in life B. if your decision is fight C. if you lead a happier life D. if you learn something from it | |||
| 3. What can we learn from the second paragraph? | |||
| A. Failure is a better mirror B. Success is more helpful C. No one is fit for the job of a physical scientist D. Physics can help students live a better life | |||

| People smile at times. However, the meaning of a smile in different cultures may be different. Depending on different cultures, smiling can express joy and amusement, but it can also show embarrassment. People in the United States smile a lot. Every one smiles at each other in order to show they are open and friendly. However, in China, smiling is not only an expression of happiness, but also a way to avoid being embarrassed. Chinese people like smiling when they are embarrassed in order to avoid embarrassment. Smiling is a kind of good will but not sneer (嘲笑). For example: When a child falls off from a bike, the adults in China may smile, which is a kind of gentle encouragement and not a kind of impolite laugh. When a person from the United States might blush(脸红)with embarrassment or become offensive (冒犯的), a Chinese might blush with smile. To avoid serious misunderstanding, people who engage in intercultural communication should be able to understand the meaning of smiling properly. | |||

| People today in this busy world have lost sight of what true friendship is. I think I would help the world out a little and tell them what true friends are. 1 Friends have similarities(相似点) but they also have differences. The key to building friendship is not only to expand similarities but also to accept each other"s faults. 2 No one likes to argue but it is necessary to have a healthy friendship, because if you agree on everything, either you aren"t being true to each other or one of you is trying too hard to please the other. If you feel uncomfortable around the person, then something isn"t quite right. 3 They have their little angry moments but what"s done is done and all is forgotten. Why let something that happened in the past ruin your happy friendship in the future. 4 Some people think that you have to know someone really well to become good friends. Trust me, it"s not true. 5 Just remember, friends are forever. Respect your friends and love them forever. | |||
| A. Believe in love at first sight because the same thing happens in friendship. B. These are only the key points of being a true friend C. Don"t believe your first impression. D. Friends don"t have to be exactly the same. E. Friends love each other unconditionally(无条件地). F. Friends have to argue! | |||

| Just be happy. Sounds too simplistic, doesn"t it? But, in reality, we can have much more happiness if we choose to consider things from a positive point of view. Everyone experiences the ups and downs of life, however, we can make a decision to take advantage of the negative or practice what the old saying says to do: "When life gives you lemons, make lemonade!" It really boils down to your attitude and you have the ability to work your attitude into any shape you like. Here are some tips: ●Ignore those who tell you life is too difficult to be happy. what do they know? ●When you awaken each morning, be thankful for another day, even if it"s raining. ●Smile at those you meet, even if they don"t return the favor. ●Don"t borrow trouble. Each day has enough of its own. ●Don"t allow trouble to bury you in its gray depth of sorrow. ●Don"t give in to negative thinking. ●Be positive even when others are not. ●Refuse to give up on anything worth having or doing. ●Do something you enjoy each day, even if it"s just a walk in your neighborhood. ● Whistle(吹口哨) as you go though the day. ●Work at being happy because it"s worth it. You"re human, like everyone else, and from time to time you need a little pick-me-up in your decision to be happy. When you reach that stage, find someone else who has decided to be happy. Join forces with him and march forward in your decision to be a happy person. Simply speaking, a happy person is not a person in a certain set of circumstances (环境) but rather a person with a certain set of attitudes. Choose today to just be happy-as much as it depends on you! | |||
