I had a very special teacher many years ago whose husband died suddenly of a heart attack. About a week after his  36 , she shared her insights(顿悟) with the students. When the class was nearly over, she  37  and said, “I would like to  38  with all of you a thought that has  39  to do with class, but which I feel is very  40 .
“Each of us is put here on the  41  to learn, share, love and appreciate ourselves. None of us knows when this  42  will end. At any moment it can be  43 . Perhaps this is life’s way of telling us that we must make good  44  of every day.” Her eyes beginning to  45 ,she went on saying, “So I would like you all to  46  me. From now on, on your way home, find something 47 to notice. It doesn’t have to be something you see- it could be  scent(香味) of fresh bread, or it could be the  48  of the wind slightly rustling(发出沙沙声) the leaves.”
“Please look for these things, and  49  them. The little things we are put here on the earth to enjoy. They are   50   observing , for at any time they can all be taken away.”
The class was totally quiet. We all picked up our books and went out of the room  51 . That afternoon, on my way home I noticed  52  things than before. Every time I think of that teacher and remember what a(n)  53  she made on all of us, I try to  54  all of those things that sometimes we all ignore. For as we get older, it is not the things we did that we often regret,  55  the things we didn’t do.

Say you meet with difficulty, what’s the first thing you do? Call your best friend and ask for help? It turns out that doing this may be better for you than you think. Researchers find that friendship has a big influence on your health, well-being and business.
One study from scientists recently found that older people with a large circle of friends were 22% less likely to die during a 10-year period than those with fewer friends. Other researchers discovered that having a strong social network could improve brain health as we age.
Even more interesting, feeling close to your friends may give you a different view on things. Researchers gathered 34 college students out side and asked them to estimate the steepness(估计陡峭程度) of a hill after climbing it. Those standing with friends gave lower estimates, and the longer the friends had known each other, the less steep the hill appeared.
What is the reason that friends can make obstacles seem less difficult? “People with stronger friendship networks feel that there is someone they can turn to,” said Karen A. Roberto, director of the center of the hospital at Virginia Tech. “Friendship is a valued resource (宝贵的资源).”
It is truly the fact. Friends make your life better. They provide support in hard times. They inspire you to make changes in your life, encourage you to set goals and cheer you on every step of the way until you reach them.
Want to find out more about the power of friendship? Read “Be a Better Friend”, “Make New Friends” and “Keep the Old”.

Positive thinkers admit when they feel frustrated(受挫折的) or depressed, they don"t ignore it.But they don"t blame themselves either.Instead, they try to understand the negative thoughts and feelings and counter(反击) them with more positive ones.
So how do you stay positive, maintain motivated and sustain(保持) healthy behaviors? Here are some tips:
Look for a good role model.There is always someone who seems to be doing just what you want to be doing.Maybe they"ve scheduled exercise into their workday and switched from coffee to green tea.Learn from a successful friend, family member or colleague.Ask them how they keep healthy and follow in their footsteps.
Try some positive self-talk and avoid negative-talk.Take a minute to give yourself an ego boost.Repeat some motivational words out loud to yourself.Negative talk such as "I can"t do it," "I"m fat," is dangerous for your well-being and healthy goals.Try to avoid the negative self-talk before it harms you.Remind yourself that you deserve happiness and can make positive changes.
Get support.Tell your friends and family about your healthy habits.It helps to have an encouraging network.
Reward yourself.Treat yourself to something for your healthy efforts.Take a nice bath, get a massage, and enjoy a new DVD or CD.
Have a plan.Making a plan to exercise or eat healthy lunches with a friend can mean the difference of sticking with your goals or falling off track.If you"ve planned for an activity, you"ll likely stick with it.You may even find that writing down your goals and steps to achieve them can help you stay on track.Take it day by day or week by week.The process of writing down your personal action plan is a good way to keep you honest and watch your progress or failures.

阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
In the days when an ice cream sundae(圣代冰淇淋)cost much less, a 10-year-old boy entered a hotel coffee shop and sat at a table. A waitress came to his table and put a glass of water in front of him. “Miss, how much is an ice cream sundae?” he asked. “Fifty cents,” replied the waitress. The little boy pulled his hand out of his pocket and counted(数) the coins in it.
“Okay then, how much is a plain dish of ice cream?” he asked. By now, more people were waiting for a table and the waitress was growing impatient. “Thirty-five cents,” she replied rudely. The little boy again counted his coins. “I’ll have the plain ice cream,” he said.
The waitress brought the ice cream sundae, put the bill on the table, and walked away. The boy finished the ice cream, paid the cashier, and left.
When the waitress came back to that table, she began to cry as she wiped(擦) it with the wash cloth. There, placed neatly beside the empty dish were fifteen cents.
You see, the little boy couldn’t have the sundae because he wanted to have enough coins to leave her a tip. The waitress regretted having treated the little boy like that. And from that, she learned that she should treat all her customers well.

A. Because he didn’t have enough money for one.
B. Because he liked a plain dish of ice cream better.
C. Because he wanted to have enough coins to leave a tip.
D. Because he was told not to have such an expensive ice cream.
2. When the little boy ordered a plain dish of ice cream, the waitress looked ______.
A. happy    B. surprised    C. impatient     D. ashamed
3. We infer that the waitress cried most probably because_____.
A. she had never received a tip before
