13.Stay on the brighter side of life
One very important component of optimism is gratitude or feeling grateful.In fact,there is a strong connection between a grateful attitude and a heightened sense of well-being.Appreciate all the positives in your life by starting a gratitude journal in order to remember what you're grateful for.(71)G
Feeling down?Instead of feeling sorry for yourself waiting for the universe to throw you a bone,try acting like you're happy-even if you aren't.A sincere smile and a forced smile will cause the same chemical reactions in your brain,so you can actually fool your mind into feeling better by making it react chemically as if things were going well.(72)D  Reassure yourself that everything is good-even if you don't feel it.
"(73)C If you're stuck in traffic,then everything else must be going horribly too,"says Anne Parker,a wellness counselor.By blowing negative events out of proportion,you're setting yourself up for feeling down all day.Instead,acknowledge that you're stuck in traffic,but also bring to mind something good,like the beautiful scenery outside the window.That way,you'll get in the habit of forbidding negative circumstances from blanketing your whole day.
Swearing to lose 20pounds or to run a marathon seems like goals leading to happiness,but they take time to achieve.(74)F You may even end up admitting that you have been defeated.However,if you focus on the small milestones that occur along the way,you will feel positive about your progress,which will give you the strength to keep going.
(75)B Try making someone else's day better.A report by United Healthcare and Volunteer Match found that volunteers are 72% more likely to characterize themselves as optimistic compared with non-volunteers.Plus,89% of volunteers say that volunteering has improved their sense of well-being,and 92% say that it enriches their sense of purpose in life.

A.Try to help someone in need.
B.Want to give your attitude a lift?
C.People tend to think in an either-or way.
D.Act in an optimistic way-smile,laugh,tell a joke.
E.You'll fail to appreciate more important things in your life.
F.By focusing on not having accomplished them yet,you will start to feel down on yourself.
G.By remembering the pleasant things in your life,you can actually turn a negative attitude around.

18.[1]Everyone has dreams.Usually they obey the rule that if you can dream it,you can achieve it!If you want to obtain a perfect life in the future,there are always some goals.
[2]The first goal common to all of us is health and energy.We all want to be healthy and fit,to have high levels of energy and to live free of pain and illness.Today,with the incredible advance in medical science,the quality of our health and fitness,and our lifespan is largely determined by design,not by chance.People with excellent health habits are far healthier,have more energy,and live longer and better than people who have poor health habits.Remember that health is not everything,but without health everything is nothing!
[3]The second goal that we all have in common is to enjoy excellent relationships-personal or social-with the people we like and respect,and who           in turn.Fully 85% of your happiness will be determined by the quality of your relationships at each stage,and in each area of your life.How well you get along with people,and how much they like and respect you,have more impact on the quality of your life than perhaps any other factor.
[4]The third common goal is to do work that we enjoy,to do it well,and to be well paid for it.You want to be able to get and keep the job you want,to get paid more and promoted faster.You want to earn the very most that is possible for you at each stage of your career,no matter what you are engaged in.
[5]The fourth goal we all have in common is to achieve financial independence.You want to reach the point in life where you have enough money so that you never have any financial worries.You want to be completely free of them.You want to be able to order dinner in a restaurant without referring to the price listings to determine what you want to eat.

77.Fill in the blank in Paragraph 3 with proper words.(no more than 6 words)
like and respect us

5.Why does night fall but never break and day break but never fall?
Why are people who ride motorcycles called bikers and people who ride bikes called cyclists?
In what other language do people drive in a parkway and park in a driveway?
In what other language do they call the third hand on the clock the second hand?
Let's face it:English is a crazy language.There is no egg in an eggplant,neither pine nor apple in a pineapple and no ham in a hamburger.Sweet-meats are candy,while sweetbreads,which aren't sweet,are meat.

And why is it that a writer writes,but fingers don't fing,grocers don't groce,and hammers don't ham?If the plural of tooth is teeth,shouldn't the plural of booth be beeth?One goose,two geese-so one moose,two meese?
How can a slim chance and a fat chance be the same,while a wise man and a wise guy are opposites?How can overlook and oversee be opposites,while quite a lot and quite a few are alike?How can the weather be hot as hell one day and cold as hell the next?
English was invented by people,not computers,and it reflects the creativity of human beings.That's why,when stars are out,     ; but when the lights are out,they are invisible.And why,when I wind up my watch,I start it; but when I wind up this essay,I end it.

2.Do we need an"Ivy League"?
China may soon have its own"Ivy League",with a union of top universities.
The term originally referred to an athletic conference of eight top universities in the northeastern US.The Chinese version,which was officially started in mid-October,consists of nine famous universities,including Peking,Tsinghua,Zhejiang and Fudan.The union is supposed to result in student exchange programs,recognition of academic achievements,and other joint programs.
The news of this Chinese"Ivy League"has received mixed responses from the public and press.Some negative critics have dismissed it as yet another example of the wishful copying of international practices without fully understanding them.Others say that the"Ivy League"is not necessary but that the union is a good idea,one that could promote academic development.
So what's your opinion on a Chinese"Ivy League"?Do we need one?
Yes.Ivy League or not,nine of China's best universities cooperating is a good thing.
1.These universities combining resources could create a better environment for students and for research.It could also save a lot of time and resources because it would mean fewer unnecessary investments for some of the universities.
2.Allowing students to move to or have exchanges with other universities could broaden their horizons,improve their social skills and create more employment opportunities.The results could be more important than lessons and achievements.
3.The term"Ivy League"carries a sense of academic excellence,tradition and reputation.If borrowing such a term could encourage students'and professors'mental state and improve Chinese higher education,then there's no reason not to do it.
No.Universities should do some work on increasing cooperation instead of copying an"Ivy League"model.
1.Many Chinese universities already have such cooperation with each other.If this cooperation were associated with the"Ivy League",it would just distract (分散) attention and resources and have a negative effect.
2.These Chinese universities are all state-run and most get their funding from the government.They're quite similar to each other in many ways and more cooperation wouldn't bring about as much potential ability as between,say,public and private,or Chinese and foreign universities.
3.China should find its own way to develop world-class universities instead of by copying some foreign practices.We have our own unique conditions and foreign lessons often don't apply well here.
