① Imagine（想象） you are collecting some information about winter traditions in northern China. You click on a link for a video that you think could be useful to you. The video， however， takes time to load（下载）. After ten seconds， it hasn’t even started playing yet. Will you continue to wait patiently？

② Ramesh Sitaraman is an American computer scientist. He placed 6.7 million people in a situation like the one above. According to his study， people would begin giving up on a video after only two seconds if it didn’t start loading. With every additional second that would pass without the video starting to play， about another 6 per cent of them would click on the “Close” icon.

③ Sitaraman’s study， along with several other studies， shows people are becoming less and less patient. Because of the faster and faster Internet speeds， we are used to receiving “instant gratification（及时满足）”. We expect to get what we want without having to wait. When we don’t get what we want at once， we become worried or even angry. This happens not only in front of our screens.

④ Take one of my friends， for example. One day last summer， he was cycling home after work. At one crossing， he had to stop because of a red traffic light. After waiting for 30 seconds， he felt impatient and made a crazy decision： Go in whichever（无论哪个） direction where he saw there was a green light. The decision didn’t really save time for him. In fact， he took a detour and needed 20 minutes more than usual to get back home.

⑤ My friend is not alone. Whenever there are traffic jams， many drivers try to quickly change lanes（变道）—a main reason for accidents. Being patient doesn’t just save you from trouble. It is also key to your success in life.

We are all asked to make a speech at some point in life， but most of us don’t do a very good job. This article gives us some advice on how to give a good speech.
So， you have to give a speech and you’re afraid. You get nervous. You forget what you want to say. You talk too long and your audience（听众） show little interest. Later you think， “It’s over. I’m just not good at public speaking. I hope I will never have to do that again.”

Cheer up！ It doesn’t have to be that bad. Here are some simple steps to take the pain out of speech making. Ask yourself the reason for your speech. What is the reason？ Why are you speaking？ Then collect as many facts as you can about your subject. Spend a lot of time organizing your speech so that it is clear and easy to follow. Use as many examples as possible， and use pictures， charts（图表） if they help make your points clearer. Never forget your audience. Treat your audience with respect. They will like listening to you more.

Just remember： Be prepared. Know your subject， your audience and the reason. Be easy and short. Say what you have to say and then stop. And be yourself. Show your personality so that you make good person-to-person communication with your audience.
If you follow these simple steps， you will find yourself confident of public speaking. In fact， you may find the experience so enjoyable that you volunteer to make more speeches！ Don’t you believe that？ Give it a try and see what will happen.

Dear Ming，
Glad to hear from you. You said at present only a few students did some reading in their free time. I’m very surprised to hear that. Why don’t they have enough time to read books？ What do they often do after class？ Do they spend much time playing computer games？ How much time do you spend on reading？ What types of books do you like best？ In your opinion， why do the students need to read books？ Hope to hear from you soon.

Jane Austen（1775—1817）， an English novelist， started writing when she was young and completed six novels in her life. Today Austen’s books are more popular than ever. So far， her novels have been made into Hollywood films many times， while her books continue to be best-sellers.
Richard Jenkyns， a professor of English at Oxford University， says that her novels are about marriage， friendships and the family， which are still with us today. “The stories are timeless，” Jenkyns says.

Pride and Prejudice（《傲慢与偏见》）（1813） is Austen’s most famous work. It is a love story about Elizabeth Bennet and Mr Darcy. At first， these two dislike each other. Elizabeth is pretty， smart and lively. She is proud because Darcy doesn’t know about her family. Mr Darcy is rich， handsome and has a better family background. So， he is proud as well. At the same time， Darcy holds a prejudice against the Bennet family. He has no understanding of why the family， especially the mother and daughters should try so hard to find wealthy and powerful husbands. He thinks they are vulgar . Anyway， Elizabeth and Darcy finally fall in love and become a romantic couple but their families don’t want them to.

In Pride and Prejudice， some of the main things that Jane Austen wants to teach people are as follows. Opposites can attract each other. Lovers should not only make each other feel relaxed or comfortable， but also educate and improve each other.
Austen is often called the greatest romantic writer， so it is surprising that she remained unmarried. “Maybe she was too romantic， waiting for the perfect man，” Jenkyns says.
