阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中选出最佳选项。
A
In 2007,Jamie Whitmore was considered one of the most successful athletes in America.She was a six-time USA champion for XTERRA racing,a two-time European tour champion,and held a world title.
Everything changed during a triathlon that seemed like so many others she had conquered.As a professional athlete,Jamie Whitmore was used to suffering,but she never imagined the pain in her leg could be a deadly cancer.
After a friend recommended she go to the University of California,San Francisco,Whitmore took his advice and was quickly admitted.What doctors found during surgery shocked them all: Whitmore had spindle cell sarcoma,a soft tissue tumor that can start in the bone,and the tumor was wrapped around her sciatic nerve and touching several vital organs.They couldn’t cut it out for fear of bursting the tumor.
When she heard the diagnosis for the first time,Whitmore said time stood still.“I couldn’t breathe.They were talking about treatment and I just started crying and saying ‘I don’t want to die.’” Finally,the doctors enlisted the help of several specialists to remove the tumor.Whitmore developed sepsis(败血症) from the surgery and endured a grueling two-month recovery.When she began to feel sick again,Whitmore was certain her cancer was back.Instead,doctors gave her unexpected news: She was pregnant—with twins.“That was a whole other freak-out,” Whitmore recalls.
Jamie Whitmore isn’t used to slowing down.She has never met a challenge she couldn’t overcome,whether it was an XTERRA mountain bike race—or cancer.Today,Whitmore is a mother of two sons and cancer-free.She’s competing again,and has won a gold medal in the Paralympics,nine world titles,and has set two world records.She travels as a motivational speaker when she’s not spending time with her sons.Whitmore has some words of advice for others with limitations: “Never let anyone tell you what you can and cannot do.Some doctors told me I would never ride anything more than a stationary bike.And yet I rode my mountain bike 104 miles climbing from 9,000 feet to 14,000 feet.People with two good legs have fallen short of that task!You just can’t give up.”
21.When learning about her cancer,what did Jamie feel
A.Sad and scared. B.Ashamed and regretful.
C.Annoyed and frightened. D.Astonished and inspired.
22.Why couldn’t the doctors cut out the tumor at first
A.Because Jamie was against the plan.
B.Because Jamie was pregnant with twins.
C.Because it was developing too quickly.
D.Because it was near several important organs.
23.The underlined word “freak-out” refers to .
A.something demanding B.something rewarding
C.something unusual D.something meaningful
24.What is the purpose of Jamie’s traveling as a motivational speaker
A.To build up her character.
B.To inspire those with limitations.
C.To spend more time with her children.
D.To earn more money in her spare time.

Dangerous as they are,extreme sports remain appealing among many Australian young people!Camp Xtreme is the perfect test of your heart.
Kite Surfing
It’s the exciting mixture of kite,board and waves.The idea of using a kite to accelerate speed seems like a new challenge:Yet the art of kite flying dates back to the 13th-century China when it was used as a simple means of transport.
Catch a wind and you’re moving up,down and across the surf.“It’s always exciting.You’d jump 5 feet or 35 feet.You never know if you’re going to go up in the air,and your heart is just going boom,boom,boom.”
Coasteering
It is by far the best activity and the event that everyone is still talking about.This is exploring the coastline without worrying about a coastal path or finding a rocky bay blocking your route.You climb,dive and swim from one place to another.With coasteering,you don’t have to be able to swim as the wet suit and buoyancy(浮力)aid will keep you floating when you are in the water.
Sky Diving
Traditional parachuting(跳伞)doesn’t sound risky enough.So now sky diving is the name for jumping from a plane and listening to your heart beating heavily as you move fast towards earth before you open your parachute at the last moment.
Mountain Biking
It’s been around so long that bikers are no longer satisfied with just going up and down a mountain.Mountain biking is a sport which consists of riding bicycles off-road,often over rough land,using specially adapted mountain bikes.Mountain bikes share similarities with other bikes,but include features designed to improve strength and performance in rough areas.

25.All the four extreme sports are mainly intended to test one’s .
A.heart beat B.physical health
C.potential strength D.courage
26.The underlined word in the second paragraph “it” refers to .
A.the kite B.kite surfing
C.kite flying D.the art of kites
27.Which of the following sports can be the most risky
A.Kite surfing. B.Coasteering.
C.Sky diving. D.Mountain biking.
C
People need light for daily activities,but in some places in the world,access to reliable power is a problem,and hurricanes and earthquakes can make the matter worse.
Andrea Sreshta and Anna Stork understand how important light is to people in need.After the 2010 earthquake in Haiti,Sreshta and Stork,then graduate students in architecture and design at Columbia University,wanted to do something to help.“We wanted to create something,a basic necessity and we focused in on lighting,” says Sreshta.
As a school assignment,Sreshta and Stork designed a lighting product that was light-weight,portable and wireless,something that might help improve the safety and living conditions of Haitians.The result was the LuminAID light—an inflatable(可充气的)plastic,waterproof rectangle light that can be recharged with solar power.What was only a school project for Stork and Sreshta turned into a more serious undertaking when friends began sending the lights to those in need.“We made this in our kitchens and we built the first 50 originals by hand,” says Stork.
In their final year of architecture school,Sreshta and Stork filed a patent for the portable lamp,and shortly after graduating,the two traveled to India and conducted field tests on their original.Stork says visiting villages without stable access to electricity was really meaningful to them.“It helped us understand the houses and the conditions that these people were living in.And what was so interesting is one of the villages that we’ve visited.The house was made out of really thick cement,so even in the daytime,it was completely dark inside the house.So we saw real need for portable lighting,” Stork says.
They admit that when they started their business LuminAID in 2011,they didn’t know much about disaster relief and humanitarian aid.“We knew we had a product that could potentially make a difference in people’s lives after disasters like the earthquake in Haiti or even in places where people lack stable electricity,” says Sreshta.“We have been fortunate enough to work with partners like non-government organizations,humanitarian groups and disaster relief organizations which distribute our lights to people in need.”
The company also sells the LuminAID light to customers through their Give Light,Get Light program.And for each purchase by an individual,the program sends a light to someone in need.
28.For what purpose did Sreshta and Stork travel to India
A.To try out their light.
B.To give away their light.
C.To work with some organizations.
D.To help people in disaster-struck areas.
29.Why does Sreshta say they have been fortunate enough in Paragraph 5
A.They have helped a lot of people in need.
B.They began to know much about disaster relief.
C.They have made much money out of LuminAID.
D.They get a lot of help from many organizations.
30.Where did Sreshta and Stork’s inspiration for the LuminAID light come
A.From 2010 Haiti earthquake.
B.From their teacher’s requirement.
C.From what they learned in university.
D.From their experiences during earthquakes.
31.What can we know about their products
A.They can’t be bought by individuals.
B.They can be used with convenience.
C.A patent of such a product hasn’t been applied.
D.They were all made in their kitchens and by hand.
D
A balanced diet comprising of diverse and healthy foods is the key to promoting good health.After all,we are what we eat—research continues to prove that eating healthy food promotes good health and unhealthy food habits lead to a diseased body.Foods contain vital nutrients that aid our body’s metabolic function.However,a lack of consumption of these nutrients or feeding upon the wrong kinds of food leads to an accumulation of toxins within the body,resulting in chronic (慢性的)diseases in the long run.
A nutritious diet while ensuring overall well being,helps to maintain a healthy Body Mass Index (BMI),reduces the risk of several debilitating diseases like cancer,cardiovascular ailments,diabetes,osteoporosis and stroke.Thus a nutritious & healthy diet is important in the prevention and cure of various diseases.
There are several health conditions that can be caused or aggravated (加重)by the food we eat.However,there are also several foods that you can include in your diet to help prevent or treat diseases.It is simplest to draw up a balanced diet chart as this will ensure that you get all the nutrients you require on a regular basis.A nutrition diet chart is a diet chart that helps you to keep a track of your nutritional diet requirements and is a very useful tool when drawing up a personalized diet plan.
However,it must be noted that allopathic medicine treats the symptoms rather than the root cause of the disease,which is usually caused by wrong eating habits leading to an accumulation of toxins within the system.Whereas a nutritious healthy diet can rectify underlying causes of diseases and restore one to wholeness of mind and body.Once we realize the connection between a wholesome balanced diet and good health,our food will be our medicine and maintaining good health will be a matter of making the right food choices and leading a healthy lifestyle.
32.How do you understand “we are what we eat” in the first paragraph
A.We will become something we eat.
B.We are no different from what we eat.
C.Healthy food can promote good health.
D.Healthy food won’t lead to a diseased body.
33.According to the passage,what can we do to make sure we have the nutrients we need
A.Curing diseases promptly.
B.Eating more nutritious food.
C.Drawing a nutrition diet chart.
D.Drawing a personalized diet plan.
34.What can we learn from the passage
A.A constant lack of consumption of nutrients can lead to chronic diseases.
B.A balanced diet chart can help you carry out a personalized diet plan to mainly lose weight.
C.A nutritious diet can cure cancer,diabetes,osteoporosis and stroke.
D.A nutritious & healthy diet is the key to preventing and curing diseases.
35.What’s the passage mainly about
A.A nutritious diet.
B.A healthy lifestyle.
C.A nutrition diet chart.
D.A personalized diet plan.

阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Make Your Fitness Resolutions Stick
Last year,the most common New Year’s resolution was fitness-related.A study showed that roughly 50 million Americans pledged (发誓)to increase activity and lose weight. 36 ,success was hard to achieve.Two months later,only 37 percent of people in their 20s and 16 percent over age 50 had kept to their new fitness habit.
37 ,the benefits of such a change are clear.There is no question that exercise plays a role in the prevention and treatment of many diseases.Weekly exercise routines have been shown to reduce rates of depression and anxiety,lessen risk of heart attack and stroke,and reduce the prevalence of diabetes.
38 .It’s suggested that 150 minutes per week of moderate intensity exercise like swimming,and 75 minutes per week of intense exercise,like jogging,should be the minimum amount of exercise needed to achieve maximum medical benefits.Often the best way to increase your exercise is to incorporate (融合)movement into your everyday life.On average,urban citizens who work by walk,bike or public transportation are fitter than suburban citizens who drive to work.Besides,taking the stairs instead of the elevator also helps. 39 .
Whether you resolve to work out at your local gym three times a week,take 10,000 steps a day or give your dog an extra walk every day.What matters most was not your commitment to exercise but your sticking to it. 40 .
A.While they have good intentions
B.Although behavior change is tough
C.However hard they try to make a change
D.There is always one type of exercise that you are fond of
E.So commit to something you love and keep to your fitness habit
F.They are good ways to increase the amount of your movement every day
G.The best form of exercise is the type that someone will consistently perform

All parents know exercise is important for children: It can lower heart risks, control weight,and help kids do better in school.Plus, outdoor activities at an early age can go a long way toward helping children form healthy habits for life.In other words, exercise is needed for healthy development.But don’t expect kids to understand about those things.Some kids just aren’t into exercise, but that shouldn’t mean they have to be addicted to the TV.So parents could do something to help inactive son or daughter fall in love with physical activity.
If parents sit in front of the TV every night, a bag of chips in hand, kids aren’t likely to respect restrictions(限制)you set on their screen time either.So check your own viewing behavior, and serve as a role model by putting physical activity into your everyday life.When you can,walk instead of driving.Regularly participate in activities that you enjoy and let your kids see—and hear about—how much you enjoy them.In this way,they may “do as the Romans do”.Make sure that children’s fitness is included in the family schedule in the same way that school,work,shopping, and family gatherings find their way onto the calendar.You and your children are more likely to stick to an exercise plan if you incorporate it into your life on a routine basis.And your children will begin to expect and accept that Sunday morning usually means a hike ride, and a couple of nights after dinner the family takes a light walk through the neighborhood.
Children who aren’t naturally good at physical activities may be self-conscious about their lack of physical skills and even fear public failure.These kids need all the support and encouragement from parents.Negative comments don’t work and will only serve to make your child feel bad.Remember, acknowledge the effort—choosing to be active or trying to improve a skill—rather than the outcome.

Technology companies usually focus their benefits on making people stay in the office longer:ping-pong tables,game rooms,on-site training rooms;some even offer laundry services.We,ABC Company,don’t do any of these.Instead,we focus on benefits that get people out of the office as much as possible.We designed our benefits system to reflect that.Here are some of the benefits we offer to get people away from the computer.
Vacation:For the last three years in a row,we’ve worked with a professional travel agent to prepare different travel packages that employees could pick from as a holiday gift.Everything is paid for and included.Specific,pre-arranged trips—whether for a family to go to Disneyland or a couple to tour Spain or singles to go to Lijiang,China—have helped make sure people actually take their vacations.
4-day Summer Weeks:From May through October,everyone who’s been with the company for more than a year gets to work just four days in a week.This started out as “Friday’s off”,but roles like customer support and operations need to cover all hours.
To come up with the best ideas,you need a fresh mind.These travel and me-off benefits help everyone stay sharp.

Dear Terry,
I’m very glad to learn that you’re going to come to China to teach senior students spoken English after graduation.
As for suggestions about your teaching,opinions may vary from person to person,but generally,as a foreign teacher,you’d better attach more importance to foreign culture and customs rather than language teaching so as to differ from what Chinese English teachers are doing.Meanwhile,you should adopt a proper teaching method to arouse the interest of the students.For example,you can carry out some interesting activities,such as designing some teaching games,choosing some special topics for students to participate and communicate,through which students’ speaking will surely be improved rapidly.
I hope you’ll enjoy your teaching in China and expect your coming.
Yours,
Li Hua

阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中选出最佳选项。
A
In 2007,Jamie Whitmore was considered one of the most successful athletes in America.She was a six-time USA champion for XTERRA racing,a two-time European tour champion,and held a world title.
Everything changed during a triathlon that seemed like so many others she had conquered.As a professional athlete,Jamie Whitmore was used to suffering,but she never imagined the pain in her leg could be a deadly cancer.
After a friend recommended she go to the University of California,San Francisco,Whitmore took his advice and was quickly admitted.What doctors found during surgery shocked them all: Whitmore had spindle cell sarcoma,a soft tissue tumor that can start in the bone,and the tumor was wrapped around her sciatic nerve and touching several vital organs.They couldn’t cut it out for fear of bursting the tumor.
When she heard the diagnosis for the first time,Whitmore said time stood still.“I couldn’t breathe.They were talking about treatment and I just started crying and saying ‘I don’t want to die.’” Finally,the doctors enlisted the help of several specialists to remove the tumor.Whitmore developed sepsis(败血症) from the surgery and endured a grueling two-month recovery.When she began to feel sick again,Whitmore was certain her cancer was back.Instead,doctors gave her unexpected news: She was pregnant—with twins.“That was a whole other freak-out,” Whitmore recalls.
Jamie Whitmore isn’t used to slowing down.She has never met a challenge she couldn’t overcome,whether it was an XTERRA mountain bike race—or cancer.Today,Whitmore is a mother of two sons and cancer-free.She’s competing again,and has won a gold medal in the Paralympics,nine world titles,and has set two world records.She travels as a motivational speaker when she’s not spending time with her sons.Whitmore has some words of advice for others with limitations: “Never let anyone tell you what you can and cannot do.Some doctors told me I would never ride anything more than a stationary bike.And yet I rode my mountain bike 104 miles climbing from 9,000 feet to 14,000 feet.People with two good legs have fallen short of that task!You just can’t give up.”
21.When learning about her cancer,what did Jamie feel
A.Sad and scared. B.Ashamed and regretful.
C.Annoyed and frightened. D.Astonished and inspired.
22.Why couldn’t the doctors cut out the tumor at first
A.Because Jamie was against the plan.
B.Because Jamie was pregnant with twins.
C.Because it was developing too quickly.
D.Because it was near several important organs.
23.The underlined word “freak-out” refers to .
A.something demanding B.something rewarding
C.something unusual D.something meaningful
24.What is the purpose of Jamie’s traveling as a motivational speaker
A.To build up her character.
B.To inspire those with limitations.
C.To spend more time with her children.
D.To earn more money in her spare time.

Dangerous as they are,extreme sports remain appealing among many Australian young people!Camp Xtreme is the perfect test of your heart.
Kite Surfing
It’s the exciting mixture of kite,board and waves.The idea of using a kite to accelerate speed seems like a new challenge:Yet the art of kite flying dates back to the 13th-century China when it was used as a simple means of transport.
Catch a wind and you’re moving up,down and across the surf.“It’s always exciting.You’d jump 5 feet or 35 feet.You never know if you’re going to go up in the air,and your heart is just going boom,boom,boom.”
Coasteering
It is by far the best activity and the event that everyone is still talking about.This is exploring the coastline without worrying about a coastal path or finding a rocky bay blocking your route.You climb,dive and swim from one place to another.With coasteering,you don’t have to be able to swim as the wet suit and buoyancy(浮力)aid will keep you floating when you are in the water.
Sky Diving
Traditional parachuting(跳伞)doesn’t sound risky enough.So now sky diving is the name for jumping from a plane and listening to your heart beating heavily as you move fast towards earth before you open your parachute at the last moment.
Mountain Biking
It’s been around so long that bikers are no longer satisfied with just going up and down a mountain.Mountain biking is a sport which consists of riding bicycles off-road,often over rough land,using specially adapted mountain bikes.Mountain bikes share similarities with other bikes,but include features designed to improve strength and performance in rough areas.

25.All the four extreme sports are mainly intended to test one’s .
A.heart beat B.physical health
C.potential strength D.courage
26.The underlined word in the second paragraph “it” refers to .
A.the kite B.kite surfing
C.kite flying D.the art of kites
27.Which of the following sports can be the most risky
A.Kite surfing. B.Coasteering.
C.Sky diving. D.Mountain biking.

People need light for daily activities,but in some places in the world,access to reliable power is a problem,and hurricanes and earthquakes can make the matter worse.
Andrea Sreshta and Anna Stork understand how important light is to people in need.After the 2010 earthquake in Haiti,Sreshta and Stork,then graduate students in architecture and design at Columbia University,wanted to do something to help.“We wanted to create something,a basic necessity and we focused in on lighting,” says Sreshta.
As a school assignment,Sreshta and Stork designed a lighting product that was light-weight,portable and wireless,something that might help improve the safety and living conditions of Haitians.The result was the LuminAID light—an inflatable(可充气的)plastic,waterproof rectangle light that can be recharged with solar power.What was only a school project for Stork and Sreshta turned into a more serious undertaking when friends began sending the lights to those in need.“We made this in our kitchens and we built the first 50 originals by hand,” says Stork.
In their final year of architecture school,Sreshta and Stork filed a patent for the portable lamp,and shortly after graduating,the two traveled to India and conducted field tests on their original.Stork says visiting villages without stable access to electricity was really meaningful to them.“It helped us understand the houses and the conditions that these people were living in.And what was so interesting is one of the villages that we’ve visited.The house was made out of really thick cement,so even in the daytime,it was completely dark inside the house.So we saw real need for portable lighting,” Stork says.
They admit that when they started their business LuminAID in 2011,they didn’t know much about disaster relief and humanitarian aid.“We knew we had a product that could potentially make a difference in people’s lives after disasters like the earthquake in Haiti or even in places where people lack stable electricity,” says Sreshta.“We have been fortunate enough to work with partners like non-government organizations,humanitarian groups and disaster relief organizations which distribute our lights to people in need.”
The company also sells the LuminAID light to customers through their Give Light,Get Light program.And for each purchase by an individual,the program sends a light to someone in need.
28.For what purpose did Sreshta and Stork travel to India
A.To try out their light.
B.To give away their light.
C.To work with some organizations.
D.To help people in disaster-struck areas.
29.Why does Sreshta say they have been fortunate enough in Paragraph 5
A.They have helped a lot of people in need.
B.They began to know much about disaster relief.
C.They have made much money out of LuminAID.
D.They get a lot of help from many organizations.
30.Where did Sreshta and Stork’s inspiration for the LuminAID light come
A.From 2010 Haiti earthquake.
B.From their teacher’s requirement.
C.From what they learned in university.
D.From their experiences during earthquakes.
31.What can we know about their products
A.They can’t be bought by individuals.
B.They can be used with convenience.
C.A patent of such a product hasn’t been applied.
D.They were all made in their kitchens and by hand.
D
A balanced diet comprising of diverse and healthy foods is the key to promoting good health.After all,we are what we eat—research continues to prove that eating healthy food promotes good health and unhealthy food habits lead to a diseased body.Foods contain vital nutrients that aid our body’s metabolic function.However,a lack of consumption of these nutrients or feeding upon the wrong kinds of food leads to an accumulation of toxins within the body,resulting in chronic (慢性的)diseases in the long run.
A nutritious diet while ensuring overall well being,helps to maintain a healthy Body Mass Index (BMI),reduces the risk of several debilitating diseases like cancer,cardiovascular ailments,diabetes,osteoporosis and stroke.Thus a nutritious & healthy diet is important in the prevention and cure of various diseases.
There are several health conditions that can be caused or aggravated (加重)by the food we eat.However,there are also several foods that you can include in your diet to help prevent or treat diseases.It is simplest to draw up a balanced diet chart as this will ensure that you get all the nutrients you require on a regular basis.A nutrition diet chart is a diet chart that helps you to keep a track of your nutritional diet requirements and is a very useful tool when drawing up a personalized diet plan.
However,it must be noted that allopathic medicine treats the symptoms rather than the root cause of the disease,which is usually caused by wrong eating habits leading to an accumulation of toxins within the system.Whereas a nutritious healthy diet can rectify underlying causes of diseases and restore one to wholeness of mind and body.Once we realize the connection between a wholesome balanced diet and good health,our food will be our medicine and maintaining good health will be a matter of making the right food choices and leading a healthy lifestyle.
32.How do you understand “we are what we eat” in the first paragraph
A.We will become something we eat.
B.We are no different from what we eat.
C.Healthy food can promote good health.
D.Healthy food won’t lead to a diseased body.
33.According to the passage,what can we do to make sure we have the nutrients we need
A.Curing diseases promptly.
B.Eating more nutritious food.
C.Drawing a nutrition diet chart.
D.Drawing a personalized diet plan.
34.What can we learn from the passage
A.A constant lack of consumption of nutrients can lead to chronic diseases.
B.A balanced diet chart can help you carry out a personalized diet plan to mainly lose weight.
C.A nutritious diet can cure cancer,diabetes,osteoporosis and stroke.
D.A nutritious & healthy diet is the key to preventing and curing diseases.
35.What’s the passage mainly about
A.A nutritious diet.
B.A healthy lifestyle.
C.A nutrition diet chart.
D.A personalized diet plan.

Make Your Fitness Resolutions Stick
Last year,the most common New Year’s resolution was fitness-related.A study showed that roughly 50 million Americans pledged (发誓)to increase activity and lose weight. 36 ,success was hard to achieve.Two months later,only 37 percent of people in their 20s and 16 percent over age 50 had kept to their new fitness habit.
37 ,the benefits of such a change are clear.There is no question that exercise plays a role in the prevention and treatment of many diseases.Weekly exercise routines have been shown to reduce rates of depression and anxiety,lessen risk of heart attack and stroke,and reduce the prevalence of diabetes.
38 .It’s suggested that 150 minutes per week of moderate intensity exercise like swimming,and 75 minutes per week of intense exercise,like jogging,should be the minimum amount of exercise needed to achieve maximum medical benefits.Often the best way to increase your exercise is to incorporate (融合)movement into your everyday life.On average,urban citizens who work by walk,bike or public transportation are fitter than suburban citizens who drive to work.Besides,taking the stairs instead of the elevator also helps. 39 .
Whether you resolve to work out at your local gym three times a week,take 10,000 steps a day or give your dog an extra walk every day.What matters most was not your commitment to exercise but your sticking to it. 40 .
A.While they have good intentions
B.Although behavior change is tough
C.However hard they try to make a change
D.There is always one type of exercise that you are fond of
E.So commit to something you love and keep to your fitness habit
F.They are good ways to increase the amount of your movement every day
G.The best form of exercise is the type that someone will consistently perform

All parents know exercise is important for children: It can lower heart risks, control weight,and help kids do better in school.Plus, outdoor activities at an early age can go a long way toward helping children form healthy habits for life.In other words, exercise is needed for healthy development.But don’t expect kids to understand about those things.Some kids just aren’t into exercise, but that shouldn’t mean they have to be addicted to the TV.So parents could do something to help inactive son or daughter fall in love with physical activity.
If parents sit in front of the TV every night, a bag of chips in hand, kids aren’t likely to respect restrictions(限制)you set on their screen time either.So check your own viewing behavior, and serve as a role model by putting physical activity into your everyday life.When you can,walk instead of driving.Regularly participate in activities that you enjoy and let your kids see—and hear about—how much you enjoy them.In this way,they may “do as the Romans do”.Make sure that children’s fitness is included in the family schedule in the same way that school,work,shopping, and family gatherings find their way onto the calendar.You and your children are more likely to stick to an exercise plan if you incorporate it into your life on a routine basis.And your children will begin to expect and accept that Sunday morning usually means a hike ride, and a couple of nights after dinner the family takes a light walk through the neighborhood.
Children who aren’t naturally good at physical activities may be self-conscious about their lack of physical skills and even fear public failure.These kids need all the support and encouragement from parents.Negative comments don’t work and will only serve to make your child feel bad.Remember, acknowledge the effort—choosing to be active or trying to improve a skill—rather than the outcome.

Technology companies usually focus their benefits on making people stay in the office longer:ping-pong tables,game rooms,on-site training rooms;some even offer laundry services.We,ABC Company,don’t do any of these.Instead,we focus on benefits that get people out of the office as much as possible.We designed our benefits system to reflect that.Here are some of the benefits we offer to get people away from the computer.
Vacation:For the last three years in a row,we’ve worked with a professional travel agent to prepare different travel packages that employees could pick from as a holiday gift.Everything is paid for and included.Specific,pre-arranged trips—whether for a family to go to Disneyland or a couple to tour Spain or singles to go to Lijiang,China—have helped make sure people actually take their vacations.
4-day Summer Weeks:From May through October,everyone who’s been with the company for more than a year gets to work just four days in a week.This started out as “Friday’s off”,but roles like customer support and operations need to cover all hours.

Dear Terry,
I’m very glad to learn that you’re going to come to China to teach senior students spoken English after graduation.
As for suggestions about your teaching,opinions may vary from person to person,but generally,as a foreign teacher,you’d better attach more importance to foreign culture and customs rather than language teaching so as to differ from what Chinese English teachers are doing.Meanwhile,you should adopt a proper teaching method to arouse the interest of the students.For example,you can carry out some interesting activities,such as designing some teaching games,choosing some special topics for students to participate and communicate,through which students’ speaking will surely be improved rapidly.
I hope you’ll enjoy your teaching in China and expect your coming.
Yours,
Li Hua
