12．I read this story the other day and I liked it very much．Now I'd like to share it （61）withyou．
A man （62）suddenly（sudden） felt very terrible one day and was taken to hospital．After he received some examinations，he was told he was badly ill and wouldn't live longer than one year．Hearing that，the man became depressed．He was so worried about himself（63）that he wanted to do nothing．It lasted for about a month．Then one day，he decided to make a change and do something that he had dreamed of （64）doing（do）----to travel around the world．The doctors were （65）shocked（shock） when they learned about it．They told the man that he（66）might（may） die on the way，but the man insisted on doing it．So he began his journey around the world．
He made friends with those he （67）met（meet） on ships or planes．He enjoyed good food and visited beautiful places．He was in a happy mood every day and even totally forgot his （68）illness（ill）．
He was still alive one year later．When he returned to his home country，he was happy and （69）healthy （health）．
When something bad happens to us，we shouldn't be anxious．Instead，we should overcome our anxiety．Things will not be as bad （70）aswe expect them to be．

10．It was once unheard-of to be a businessman in China．Nowadays，though，it's quite common to become your own boss．Let's say you have an idea．Maybe you want to open an English school or sell Japanese comics．Above all，you need a business plan．It sets out what you'll sell and how much everything will cost．Most busin esses that fail didn't have this．If you need to borrow money at the start，banks will ask for a detailed plan．
The best starting place for a business plan is the 4Ps：product，place，price and promotion．All these should be important for your starting  your own business．
□Product
Your product must have something unique．What makes it special compared to other similar products？If you want to start a noodle shop that has nothing new，don't expect people to show much interest．You can research your product．For food，let people try it for free．For toys，let a few children play with them to see if they like them．
□Place
There's n o point having a product that people want to buy if your shop is in an empty mall．Think about which type of person is going to buy what you sell．W here do they usually go shopping？When looking at possible places，spend the day there．See how many people pass by．Also，are there other shops nearby selling similar products？If so，how can you be better than them？
□Price
Work out how much it costs to make or provide your product．As a general rule，your price will be double the cost．After all，you're also paying for rent，staff and you need to eat too!
□Promotion
How can you attract people to your shop？Advertising in newspapers and on TV is expensive．Perhaps you can get free advertising by getting a newspaper to write about your business．

8．When he donated his brain to science，he didn't realize what a valuable gift he shared with the world．His brain has recently been digitally imaged in 3D to ensure future generations have online access to his undiscovered treasures．
No，it's not Einstein's brain．His name was Henry Molaison．You may not have heard of his name but his contribution has influenced our life．Scientists are learning new ways for treating diseases such as Alzheimer's，mainly due to the research conducted on Henry．
Henry had part of his brain removed in 1953．However，his ability to form memories was unexpectedly changed．Henry could remember some events and people from his life before the operation，though he could not form new memories．If you met Henry，he would forget meeting you seconds later．Henry only lived in the moment，and nowhere else．The operation had removed key parts of the brain responsible for helping remember the details of our lives．Henry had no choice； his life existed only in the Now．Henry would have forgotten the entire meeting moments after it was over．
Unable to live a normal life，Henry engaged in simple daily activities such as shopping，watching television，and doing puzzles．He spent most of his time serving as the subject of countless research projects．
Henry could still learn new skills and tasks．He could retain theses skills，but had no idea where or when he had learned them．His brain has multiple memory systems．Memory is not a single process which occurs in the entire brain．Instead，various parts of the brain are responsible for our memory．Due to his inability to remember he'd done so many times before，Henry was a willing participant and never grew tired of serving the science community．
Giving scientists the map for learning how and where the brain forms memories is Henry's greatest contribution．This is the priceless gift that won't easily be forgotten．
