I once had a friend that was diagnosed with terminal cancer,and the news that he might only live up to six months was a great shock to him,his family,and his friends.However,in spite of the serious illness,he was initially determined to look into all available treatments that might cure or extend his life.I think that when you find yourself in such situations,you tend to look up every possible way for hope of saving your life.

As months went on and his health grew worse,I noticed an unexpected change in attitude that came over him.He had also been a happy person with a cheerful personality,but rather than give in to discouragement and self-pity,he took comfort in God and humanity.His talks focused on others rather than himself,and he spoke of the afterlife as something he was prepared for,believing that his concerned ancestors,including his mother and father,were there waiting for him.

During the last few months,weeks,and days of his life,he was kindly cared for by friends,his loving wife,who looked after both his physical and emotional needs,and workers from a local hospice(安養(yǎng)院) came to the home to regulate his medication and provide any other needed support.He didn’t complain about his fate,and he willingly allowed others to serve him.

Indeed,one might think why God allows death and suffering in our world,but for me,such experiences taught me to value family more and kindness for others.You can’t often learn these important attributes in the lap of luxury,and perhaps,such an experience is the greatest and final gift the illness can give those left behind.

1.What did the man do after he first learned of his illness?

A.He was operated on immediately.

B.He retired from his job.

C.He researched cancer treatments.

D.He felt sad,doing nothing.

2.What was the man’s main source of comfort after several months with the disease?

A.His family and friends.

B.His belief in humanity.

C.His doctors’ encouragement.

D.The care from others.

3.What did the author learn from his friend’s story?

A.Giving more respect to friends.

B.Extending life as long as possible.

C.Caring for yourself and enjoying luxury.

D.Getting comfort from God.

4.What does the author mainly want to tell?

A.All people will face death,and thus,we must prepare for it spiritually.

B.Our characters can be strengthened by such an unpleasant situation.

C.Families provide the best support system during such a crisis.

D.People should help those who have got serious illness.

Public Speaking Training

·Get a coach

1. ，so get help. Since there are about a billion companies out there all ready to offer you public speaking training and courses, here are some things to look for when deciding the training that's right for you.

·Focus on positives

Any training you do to become more effective at public speaking should always focus on the positive aspects of what you already do well. Nothing can hurt confidence more than being told that you aren't doing well. 2., so good public speaking training should develop those instead of telling you what you shouldn't do.

· 3.

If you find a public speaking course that looks as though it's going to give you lots of dos and don'ts, walk away! Your brain is so full of what you're going to be talking about.

4.. As far as we're concerned, there are basically no hard and fast rules about public speaking. Your audience can be your friends.

·You are a special person not a clone

Most importantly, good public speaking training should treat you as a special one, with your own personal habits. 5.. Your training course should help you bring out your

personality, not try to turn you into someone you're not.

A. You aren't like anybody else

B. You already do lots of things well

C. Turn your back on too many rules

D. Check the rules about dos and don'ts

E. Whatever the presentation, public speaking is tough

F .The one thing you don't want is for them to fall asleep

G. So trying to force a whole set of rules into it will just make things worse

Tips on How to Motivate a Team

Leadership is an art of making the work easier and more fun and motivating your team to succeed.If you want to get your team excited to face the next challenge,look through the following steps.

Set realistic goals. 1. For example,if you have a project that needs completing,create a chart that breaks the project into smaller goals so that,as they achieve each step,they can check it off and see themselves getting closer to completing the project.

2. So if it is somebody’s birthday or someone just got married or had a baby,make them feel special and important. 3.—do whatever is appropriate for the occasion,as long as you are respecting that person’s privacy.

Create social events outside of work.Motivate your team by not having everything be all about work,work,work. 4. Have members go out for lunch in groups every two weeks instead of everyone going separate ways,so people are more motivated to work hard because they’ll know each other better.

Be a good role model.As a person that each individual team member can look up to,you don’t have to be perfect,but you should be hard-working,reasonable,willing to communicate,and generally a smart,reliable employee. 5.

A.Make your team members feel recognized.

B.Get the team to work together.

C.Have monthly happy hours to let the members of your team relax a bit.

D.If you’re not showing the very quality that your team should possess,then why will they follow you?

E.Know what your team is capable of and provide a tool that shows their progress.

F.Email your best wishes and bring in a cake.

G.Get people walking around instead of over chat or email.

Since the first Earth Day in 1970,Americans have gotten a lot “greener” toward the environment.“We didn’t know at that time that there even was an environment,let alone that there was a problem with it,”says Bruce Anderson,president of Earth Day USA.

But what began as nothing important in public affairs has grown into a social movement.Business people,political leaders,university professors,and especially millions of grass-roots Americans are taking part in the movement.“The understanding has increased many,many times,”says Gaylord Nelson,the former governor from Wisconsin,who thought up the first Earth Day.

According to US government reports,emissions(排放)from cars and trucks have dropped from 10.3 million tons a year to 5.5 million tons.The number of cities producing CO beyond the standard has been reduced from 40 to 9.Although serious problems still remain and need to be dealt with,the world is a safer and healthier place.A kind of “green thinking” has become part of practices.

Great improvement has been achieved.In 1988 there were only 600 recycling programs;today in 1995 there are about 6,600.Advanced lights,motors,and building designs have helped save a lot of energy and therefore prevented pollution.

Twenty-five years ago,there were hardly any education programs for environment.Today,it’s hard to find a public school,university,or law school that does not have such a kind of program.“Until we do that,nothing else will change!”says Bruce Anderson.

1.According to Anderson,before 1970,Americans had little idea about .

A.the social movement

A.The grass-roots level.

B.The business circle.

C.They have lowered their CO levels in forty cities.

We all knew we can’t live on our own. A lot of things are very important in our lives, such as animals which are usual considered as one of the most essential part. They help us in many ways except providing their meat for us and making our diet variously. Moreover, people get much fun and pleasure when lived with them. In my opinion, how the animals give us may be more than the things we do for them, but they are our great and honest friends. So in the return, we should do our best protect them because we can not live without them.

Ways to Find the Happiness in Front of You

We struggle with war, poverty, global warming. 1. Famous people have wonderful lives, but you don't, and the "if only's" threaten to win the day: "My life would be sweet if only I were richer, had a better job..."

__2. And it doesn't care how much money you have or what the circumstances of your life are. Look through the suggestions on how to look on the bright side and find the happiness in front of you.

_3.__

If I'm feeling low, one of the best ways I know to cheer up is to make a love list. It's simple, just a list of every single person I love. Then I can put it in a pocket to take with me on a tough day, or just keep it in mind as I get on with my life.

Find Lost Friends

I recently took some time to seek out people that I've lost touch with over the years. __4.__. Within 24 hours I had baby pictures and recent histories. But the interesting thing was that all the people I got in touch with had been thinking about contacting me a couple of days before getting my email.

Think Positively

___5.___I'm not saying your problems are over, but simply looking at the world through rose-colored glasses means that half your problems will look like exciting challenges, and the other half you'll probably realize aren't problems at all, just facts of life.

B. But happiness is all around you.

C. Wish upon a star
