Pato made his start in Serie A only in January and has scored seven goals for his club so far. He also helped
Pato is good at controlling football and moves intelligently. But most of all, he is quick. Looking at him play, it becomes evident why many people have connected him with a young Ronaldo. Yet Pato insists that the praise does not put him under pressure. Instead, he welcomes it.
Pato started to play indoor football at the age of three. At only 11, he signed with the Brazilian football club International where he started sharing a house with 83 other teenagers. Much like him, they wanted to make a name for themselves in the club's senior team. Luckily, Pato was the one who quickly made his way to the senior team and landed in AC Milan at the end of 2007.
Was it easy for him to settle down in a totally different culture? Pato insists that he has settled in with no problems thanks largely to his compatriots (同胞) in the Italian League. "These are the players I played with on Playstation and watched on television," he admitted. "My dream of playing with my idol Ronaldo has finally come true."

People who drink moderately (適度地), exercise, quit smoking and eat five servings of fruit and vegetables each day live on average 14 years longer than people who adopt none of these behaviors, researchers said on Tuesday.
Much evidence has shown these things contribute to healthier and longer lives, but the new study actually quantified (量化) their combined effect, the British team said.
"These results may provide further support for the idea that even small differences in lifestyle may make a big difference to health in the population," the researchers wrote in the journal PLoS Medicine. Between 1993 and 1997 the researchers questioned 20,000 healthy British men and women about their lifestyles. They also tested every participant's blood to measure vitamin C intake, which shows how much fruit and vegetables people ate. Then they assigned the participants aged 45-79 a score of between 0 and 4, giving one point for each of the healthy behaviours.
After allowing for age and other factors that could affect the possibility of dying, the researchers determined people with a score of 0 were four times as likely to have died. Also a person with a health score of 0 had the same risk of dying as someone with a health score of 4 who was 14 years older.
The lifestyle change with the biggest benefit was giving up smoking, which led to an 80 percent improvement in health, followed by eating fruits and vegetables. Moderate drinking and keeping active brought the same benefits.
With this information, public-health officials should now be better encouraging behavior changes likely to improve the health of middle-aged and older people.
68. Who is the most likely to benefit from behavior changes according to the passage?
A. A 15-year-old student. B. A 25-year-old soldier.
C. A 35-year-old teacher. D. A 45-year-old housewife.
69. Which of the following leads to the greatest improvement in health according to the passage?
A. Giving up smoking. B. Eating fruit and vegetables.
C. Taking vitamin C pills. D. Drinking limited amount of wine.
70. Which of the following statements is TRUE about the new study?
A. It discovered some lifestyle changes which can lead to better health.
B. It made it possible to measure the benefits brought by lifestyle changes.
C. It found that people can improve their health through lifestyle changes.
D. It assigned different scores to encourage people to live a healthier life.
71. The main idea of the passage is that ________.
A. sports can help you live a healthier life B. people in
C. health changes can extend life 14 years D. researchers recommend health suggestions

Days after celebrations honoring his bicentennial (二百周年), Abraham Lincoln kept his rank as best US president, according to a survey of 65 historians that landed George W. Bush 36th out of 42 overall.
Abraham Lincoln (1861-1865), the first US president George Washington (1789-1797) and New Deal architect Franklin D. Roosevelt (1933-1945) were ranked the top three out of the 42 men who have been the country's former chiefs, according to a survey by cable channel C-SPAN.
John F. Kennedy came in sixth, ahead of Ronald Reagan (10th) and Bill Clinton, who jumped to 15th from 21st during the last survey in 2000, when
Of all modern presidents, Bush, who left office last month after an eight-year term, behaved worst at 36th, nearly 10 spots behind Richard Nixon (27th), who was forced to resign in disgrace in consequence of the Watergate Scandal (丑聞).
Bush scored lowest in international relations, where he ranked 41st, and in economic management, where he placed 40th. His best ranking was 24th, in having "pursued equal justice for all.” He came 25th in crisis leadership, and for his vision and agenda setting.
Reagan behaved well in public persuasion, where he was pushed to 3rd spot, from his 10th place overall.
Bill Clinton also received honors for his public persuasion, landing a 10th spot in that category, up from 15th overall. But presidential historians were critical of his moral authority, placing him 37th, ahead of Richard Nixon (41st), but behind Bush (35th).
Jimmy Carter fell from 22nd to 25th overall, and many other presidents moved positions. The fluidity (流動性) of opinions of past presidents reflects contemporary concerns, according to Edna Medford, a survey leader and participant.
"Today's concerns shape our views of the past, he it in the area of foreign policy, managing the economy or human rights," she said in a statement.
Presidents James Buchanan, Andrew Johnson, Franklin Pierce and William Henry Harrison ranked worst overall.
72. In which of the following does George W. Bush rank highest?
A. Pursuit of equal justice for all. B. International relations.
C. His vision and agenda setting. D. Economic management.

1. Take Pictures
One of the great things about taking pictures at an event or party is that it gives you an excuse to get in touch with the person later. Everybody loves seeing pictures of themselves, and it's very easy after taking a picture to say "Are you on Facebook?" or "If you'd like I can email it to you. "
This can be the seed that leads to new connections. The next time you hear about a fun event email your new contacts to let them know about it.
2. ________

3. Join a Class, Sports Team, or Club
Yoga, salsa dancing, volleyball, jogging, a class for work, martial arts, etc. Take up a new hobby or continue an old one[ At these great places to meet new people, you'll automatically make friends with them if you have a common interest and are forced to see the same people over and over again in the class.

Bonus Tips:
l In the beginning, never turn down an invitation from someone, even if it's something you wouldn't normally do.

The US recession (不景氣) has opened up the biggest gap between male and female unemployment rates since records began in 1948, as men bear the blow of the economy's decline.
Men have lost almost 80% of the 5.1 million jobs since the recession started, pushing the male unemployment rate to 8.8%. The female jobless rate has hit 7%.
This is a dramatic change of the trend over the past few years, where the rates of male and female unemployment barely differed, at about 5%. It also means that women could soon overtake men as the majority of the
Men have been badly hurt because they dominate those industries that have been affected: 9 in every 10 construction workers are male, as are 7 in every 10 manufacturing workers. These two sectors (部門) alone have lost almost 2.5 million jobs. Women, in contrast, tend to hold more stable jobs and make up 75% of the most unaffected sectors of all: education and healthcare.
"It protects them a little bit and softens the blow," said Francine Blau, a labour market economist at
The widening gap between male and female joblessness means many US families are totally reliant on the income the woman brings in. Since women earn on average 20% less than men, that is putting extra stress on many households.

A. Compared to the female's, the male jobless rate becomes higher.
B. The US recession has brought heavy burden on many households.
C. The female unemployment rate remains much the same as before.

D. Little difference existed between the rates of male and female joblessness in the past.

Dear Reader,
Today I'm going to ask you to support Wikipedia with a donation. Sounds unusual: Why does one of the world's five most popular websites ask for financial support from its users?
Wikipedia is built differently from almost every other top 50. We have a small number of paid staff, just twenty-three. Wikipedia content is free to use by anyone for any purpose. Wikipedia is run by the non-profit Wikimedia Foundation, which I founded in 2003.
Wikipedia’s driven by a global community (群體) of more than 150,000 volunteers, all devoted to sharing knowledge freely. More than 275 million people come to our website every month to access information, free of charge and free of advertising.
Your donation helps us in several ways. Most importantly, your 11 help us cover the increasing cost of managing global traffic to one of the most popular websites on the Internet. Funds also help us improve the software that runs Wikipedia, making it easier to search, easier to read, and easier to write for. We're bent on growing the free knowledge movement world-wide, by employing new volunteers, and building strategic (戰(zhàn)略的) partnerships with institutes of culture and learning.
Wikipedia is different. It's the largest encyclopedia (百科全書) in history, all written by volunteers.
Like a national park or a school, we don’t believe advertising should have a place in Wikipedia. We want to keep it free and strong, but we need the support of thousands of people like you, for your donation will help keep Wikipedia free for the whole world.
Thank you,
Jimmy Wales
