The world is not coming to an end on December 21, 2012, the US space agency insisted Monday in a rare campaign to remove widespread rumors fueled by the Internet and a new Hollywood movie.

The latest big screen offering from Sony Picture, 2012, arrives in theaters on Friday, with a 200 milliondollar production about the end of the world supposedly based on myths (虛構(gòu)的故事) backed by the Mayan calendar. It is claimed that the end of time will come as a Planet X — or Nibiru — heads toward or collides with the Earth.

Some websites accuse NASA of hiding the truth on the planet’s existence, but the US space agency denounced (公然抨擊) such stories as an “Internet hoax(惡作劇) ”. “There is no factual basis for these claims，” NASA said in a question and answer posting on its website. “If such a collision were real, astronomers would have been tracking it for at least the past decade, and it would be visible by now to the naked eye. Obviously, it does not exist. Credible scientists worldwide know of no threat associated with 2012，” it insisted. “After all, our planet has been getting along just well for more than four billion years，” added NASA.

There is another planet, Eris, floating in space. But the small planet similar to Pluto (冥王星) will remain safely fixed in the outer solar system and it can come no closer than four billion miles to the Earth, according to NASA.

Initial theories set the disaster for May 2003, but when nothing happened the date was moved forward to the winter in 2012 to coincide (同時發(fā)生) with the end of a cycle of the ancient Mayan calendar.

NASA insisted the Mayan calendar in fact does not end on December 21, 2012, as another period begins immediately afterward. And even if the planets were to line up as some have forecast, the effect on our planet would be “negligible” (微不足道的)， NASA said.

“And while comets and asteroids (小行星) have always hit the Earth, big hits are very rare，” NASA noted. The last major impact was believed to be 65 million years ago，resulting in the end of dinosaurs.

“We have already determined that there are no threatening asteroids as large as the one that killed the dinosaurs，” the space agency said.

56．________played a key role in the spread of the rumors.

A. A new book                                            B. The Internet and a new Hollywood movie

A. might cause a threat to the Earth              B. doesn’t cause any threat to the Earth

You know how wonderful you are, and you know that others know how wonderful you are, but what do you do when admiration crosses over the line into jealousy? For most teens there will come a day when you realize that one of your friends is jealous and that this jealousy is hurting your friendship. When this happens it can seem like there is nothing that you can do, but the good news is that there is. Don’t let jealousy spoil your relationships. Tackle it head on and you might be back to normal much sooner than you think.

It can be hard to walk up to a friend and ask them what the problem is, but if you want to save your friendship you’ll have to do just that. Don’t approach them and ask why they are jealous of you (unless of course you want to appear totally conceited), just take some time alone with them and let them know that you’ve been feeling like there’s been something coming between you. If they refuse to respond, then use the opportunity to explain how you have been feeling. Chances are that something you say will strike a nerve and your friend will open up as well.

When you figure out what is annoying your friend, ask him or her what (s)he thinks would make the situation better. If, for example, (s)he says that (s)he feels like (s)he doesn’t get to spend any time with you because of your being off with your new friends from tee swim team then maybe you could invite her along the next time or block off one day a week for just the two of you. Remember, though, that whatever solution you decide on should be a compromise. Don’t limit your own talents or opportunities simply because your friend is unhappy. Try instead to include him or her in your new life and see how that works out.

Even the best of friendships can be tinged by jealousy. This destructive emotion is rarely productive and can turn best friends into worst enemies. Before taking extreme action, chat with your jealous friend to see if the two of you can work out a compromise. If you can’t, be prepared to know exactly how far you will go to keep your friend and how far you won’t.

He has vowed that he will not stop building his business until it is worth ?100 million. But hard-working Owens can stop for at least a moment's celebration after making his first ?1 million at the age of 16. Owens, who has used a computer since the age of seven, began teaching himself basic web design at the age of ten when he was given his first Mac computer. He used his pocket money to fund his first business project, website Mac Box Bundle at just 14 which has made ?700,000 since its establishment in 2008. Mac Box Bundle sells a combination of popular Mac applications which are worth up to $400 together for under just $100 and donates 10 percent of the money to charities.

He then established an advertising company Branchr a year later and worked on the business after school and at weekends. Branchr made a surprising ?500,000 in its first year. Branchr works as a platform for website owners to sell advertising.

Owens, from Northampton, currently employs eight staff---all adults---around the UK and America as sales and technical assistants. The young man lives with his parents. His mother who is a company secretary said he was inspired to go into business after observing the huge success achieved by Apple's chief executive officers(首席執(zhí)行官) Steve Jobs.

Owens said, "I think everyone has business sense in them, and they just need to gain experience and be determined to make it. There is no magical formula(法則) for business, It takes hard work, determination and the drive to do something great. My aim is to become a leading name in the world of Internet and mobile advertising and push myself right to the top of the game.

How to improve my life? Many people think that they have to accept whatever life throws at them. They'll say, "This is my fate, my destiny. I cannot change it."

　　 Of course not! You don't have to suffer needlessly. Your destiny depends on you, not on any other external factors.

　　 I know someone who says she just accepts what life gives her because she has done everything she can to improve it. Guess what her lifestyle is? She wakes up in the morning, goes to work, comes back home, relaxes, chats with people, watches TV, then goes to sleep. Next day, the same routine cycle follows.

　　 Huh! Is this what she calls "doing her best"? She believes she has tried her best and just accepts it in her heart that this is the life that God has intended for her to live; that her luck can only change if God wills it. Of course God wants us to be happy and live our life to the fullest, but we have to do our share of exerting(運(yùn)用) the effort to live the life of our dreams.

　　 Remember that you reap what you sow. You just don't sit around and wait for a million dollars to fall from the sky. You have to get off the couch, get your eyes off the TV screen, get your hands off the phone. Don’t expect your luck to change unless you do something about it. If something goes wrong, don't just regard it as a temporary setback; but use it as feedback. Learn your lesson, make the most of the situation, and do something to solve the problem. It's not enough to think positively; you also have to act positively.

If someone's life is in the trouble, do you just hope and pray that things will turn out fine? Of course not! You get to do anything you can to save the person. So it is with your own life. It is not enough to hope for the best, but you have to do your best. In other words, don't just stand (or sit ) there, do something to improve your life.

  An earthquake can often cause damage. Knowing how to prepare for such    31    event can directly affect your chance of survival.

If you are outdoors, find an open area free      32     trees and tall buildings. If you    33    (drive) when an earthquake hits, slow down and stop in a clear place. Remember that you have to stay in your car. Do not park near buildings     34     under bridges. If you are indoors, you must protect yourself from     35      (fall) objects by finding a safe place in your home. For example, you can hide under something. This most often means a heavy table or desk       36       is large enough. It is important for you to know where the furniture is     37      an earthquake. Besides, make sure that all the family members know the best place to hide     38       in each area of the house.

For families with young children, it’s recognized to be more important to practice    39    to do in the earthquake. Make sure your family has a plan of action, and tell your children where to meet each other.     40    is also wise to be prepared by taking a First Aid class to learn something useful for a possible disaster. 

There once lived a young man who was always unhappy and complained about his poverty. One day, he went to see a fortune teller to inquire how to become       16     . The fortune teller said, "Young man, you are already wealthy now."

"Where is my wealth?" the young man asked     17     .

"It is with you. Your     18      is (are) your wealth. You use them to see this world. You use them to see all the     19     things in this world. You can read, study and learn. Your hands are your wealth. You can use them to work. You can use them to hug your beloved ones. Your     20     are your wealth. You can go to any places..." the fortune teller said.

"You call these wealth? Everyone has them," the young man said.

"These are wealth. What you have now are not what others can luckily have. Are you     21     to give your eyes to me? I am willing to give you a lot of money to     22      for them," the fortune teller said.

"No, are you crazy? I am not going to exchange my eyes for money! They are     23     to me!" the young man     24     .

"Precisely, these are wealth to you. You will not exchange them for money. Furthermore, although a lot of people have their wealthy things, they do not     25     them or treasure them. They are not     26     to Heaven for giving them their wealth. They even complain that Heaven is unfair to them. Do you want to    27     one of them before you will treasure them?" the fortune teller said.

Everyone is wealthy. But we should not     28    it for granted. We need to treasure our wealth, take care of it and use it     29     . We should not overuse it because once it is     30     , it is gone forever. Remember it is our wealth that we do not want to lose.
