【題目】How to keep a journal

Keeping a journal can be a way of giving your feelings an outlet like no other.【1】But it can be helpful to read suggestions for making the most of your journal,as well as some ideas about getting one started.

Find a journal medium that's perfect for you.【2】Both methods have advantages and drawbacks,so you'll need to weigh up what works best for you.For example,a paper based journal can be taken anywhere,never needs electricity.However,typing can be faster and easier in the electronic format.

Decide what kind of journal you'd like to keep.You could simply use your journal to write down all the thoughts that come to you at any particular time,randomly,or you could make your journal more focused on a specific theme to draw out something that you're trying to develop more of in your life.【3】

Find sources of inspiration.It's often easiest to start with your current feelings.【4】There are no rules at all about journal writing and you may find that your starting points vary every time you begin a new entry.Sometimes it is easier to begin with a narrative about something that happened to you during the day.Writing down the facts and events can open up a whole stream of consciousness as you're writing.

【5】Think about what things have become clearer to you from one journal entry to the next,and think about what hopes and dreams once written in your journal have now turned into reality.Use your journal to assess your life's journey.

A.Write down your feelings on paper and see where this takes you next.

B.Reflect over what you've written now and then.

C.Keep in mind that a journal is not about using a fancy book.

D.Decide how you want to keep your journal,either on paper or in electronic form.

E.Journal writing is a personal journey,determined wholly by your own thoughts.

F.It's fun to glue in little things of your life,like pictures you took of a breathtaking sunset.

G.And there is nothing saying that you can't keep both a random and a specific journal at the same time!

Welcome to your future life!
You get up in the morning and look into the mirror. Your face is firm and young-looking. In 2035, medical technology is better than ever.

It's time to go to work. In 2035, cars drive themselves. Just tell your “smart car” where to go. On the way. You can call a friend using your jacket sleeve. Such “smart technology” is all around you.

Dear Linda,

How is everything going with you? I’ve returned back to Shanghai tiredly but happy. I can’t thank you enough for all the kindness you offered during my stay in New Zealand.

When I first go there, I found hard to use English properly. It was you who always help me with patient. Now I have made such great progress that I can speak English more fluently. I even have a large vocabulary than before. I am not scared of English any more.

When I was homesick, you kept me company, chatting, playing games or showed me around the scenic spots. You made me felt as if I was one of your family members. There are so much wonderful memories fresh in my mind.

In addition, please remember me to your parents.

Best wishes.

Yours,

Yu Lei

【題目】Older people with hearing loss may suffer faster rates of mental decline. People who have hearing trouble suffered meaningful impairments(損傷) in memory, attention and learning about three years earlier than people with normal hearing, a study published in JAMA Internal Medicine reveals.

The finding supports the idea that hearing loss can have serious consequences for the brain, says Patricia Tun of Brandeis University, who studies aging. “I’m hoping it will be a real wake-up call in terms of realizing the importance of hearing.”

Compared with other senses, hearing is often overlooked, Tun says. “We are made to interact with language and to listen to each other, and it can have damaging effects if we don’t.”

Frank Lin of Johns Hopkins School of Medicine and colleagues tested the hearing of 1, 984 older adults. Most of the participants, who averaged 77 years old, showed some hearing loss--1, 162 volunteers had trouble hearing noises of less than 25 decibels(分貝), comparable to a whisper or rustling leaves. The volunteers’ results reflect the hearing loss in the general population: Over half of people older than 70 have trouble hearing.

Over the next six years, these participants went through mental evaluations that measured factors such as short-term memory, attention and the ability to quickly match numbers to symbols. Everybody got worse at the tasks as time went on, but people with hearing loss had an especially sharp decline. On average, a sudden drop in performance would come about three years earlier to people with hearing loss.

Lin cautions that the study has found an association between hearing loss and mental abilities. Those who can’t hear well might avoid social situations and isolation(孤立) is known to be bad for the brain. “You gradually become more socially disconnected,” Lin says. “Social isolation is a major factor for dementia and cognitive decline.”

Lin and his team hope to study whether improvements in hearing brought about by hearing aids or other treatments can transform into improvements in mental functioning. “The ultimate question is, can we do anything about it?” he says.

【1】According to Patricia Tun, this research will probably______.

A. presentthementaldecline of old people

B. make the public attachmore importancetohearing

C. reveal some unknown secrets of aging

D. call on people to listen to and interact with each other

【2】Whatisparagraph4mainlyabout?

A. Theoutcomeofthetest.

B. Theprocessofthetest.

C. Theparticipantsofthetest.

D. Thepurposeofthetest.

【3】Dementiaandcognitivedeclinemainlyresultfrom_____.

A. memoryloss B. hearingloss

C. socialisolation D. speechimpairment

【4】What can we infer from the last paragraph?

A. Hearing aids can completely solve the hearing loss problem.

B. The exploration between hearing loss and mental decline will be carried on.

C. No effective treatment can really improve hearing loss.

D. Lin and his team are confident that their research will help slow down mental decline.

【題目】If you’re looking for a challenging situation to practice your English, pick up the phone. Not being able to see the other person and the body language can make the chatting difficult.【1】Here are some tips to guide you through an average phone conversation in English.

.1. Greetings

Every phone call should begin with a polite greeting such as “Hi, how’ve you been?” or “Nice to hear from you”. Even if you’re calling a business contact for a specific purpose, it’d be rude to jump right into business.【2】

.2. Getting to the point

There always comes the point where you want to move on from friendly chatting and get down to business. What should you do in this situation? 【3】However, if you are waiting to find out why someone called you, you can guide the conversation by saying “So what can I do for you?”

.3. Interrupting without offence

Sometimes you may happen to be speaking with a very talkative person.【4】Keep in mind when you’d like to interrupt, be sure to do it politely. For example, begin with “I’d like to say something here”．

.4. Closing the call

This can be the trickiest part of the conversation! It may be the time to offer good wishes such as good luck on that interview or hope you feel better soon if it’s appropriate.【5】Sometimes it’s easiest to just say you enjoyed speaking to the other person. Also remember cleverly saying the word well at the beginning of a sentence can indicate you’re ready to end the conversation.

A. So it may be difficult to get a word in.

B. Practice English through phone calls.

C. Never fear, though!

D. Use the phrase “I’m just calling to...” to change to the topic at hand.

E. Additionally, you may want to confirm any plans you’ve made.

F. You should make a little small talk at the beginning.

G. You’d better greet him or her in a friendly way.
