influences biological processes like glucose metabolism, blood pressure, and inflammations – all of which have an impact on cardiovascular disease."

If I were you, this is what I‘d do: I‘d pack a backpack and start traveling for up to a year.
如果我是你，我会打包行李，开始为期一年的旅行。
The beauty of traveling is that, with little effort, it will take you out of your head - new currencies, new foods, new accents and people so you HAVE to pay more attention to everyday things.
旅行的魅力在于，只需要耗费一点点精力，就会让你跳出现有的生活状态，去认识新的货币，接触新奇的食物，不同的口音和人们，于是你就会更多地去关注日常事物。
Whether abroad or in the US, I‘d suggest you do some volunteer work. When you don‘t know what to do for yourself, go do something for another person (or for animals, the en vironment, etc…).
无论你去国外还是在美国，我建议你做一些志愿者工作。当你不知道自己要做什么时，那就去为别人（或动物，环境等…）做一些事情。
Besides traveling and volunteering, something else that‘s great for when you don‘t give a hoot is to read.
除了旅行和志愿者活动，在你对一切不屑一顾的时候，阅读会有益于你。
Read just for reading sake! Not to make you a better person, to get ahead, to pass the time, to be productive. Just find anything or anyone that interests you and read about it.
为了阅读而阅读！读书不是为了成为一个更好的人，而是为了进步，消磨时间或是提高创新思维。只要找任何你感兴趣的人或物去阅读就可以
Remember you are not the one feeling this sense of helplessness.
你要知道每个人都会有感到无助的时候。
It's ok to fail. I know how bad you feel now. You worked so hard to get into your dream school and you didn't get admitted in the end. It just didn't make any sense. Just let all these emotions out. Cry it out. And let it go.
失败了没关系。我知道你现在有多难过。你如此努力却最终没有被你梦寐以求的学校录取。但现在说这些都没有意义了。让你的情绪宣泄出来。大声哭出来吧。然后让它随风而去。
You are not alone. There are people around you who cares about you. Your parents, friends, siblings. They were always there. Go talk to them and tell them
how you feel. 你并没有孤立无援。你身边还有很多关心你的人。比如你的父母，朋友和兄弟姐妹。
他们一直都在。试着与他们谈谈心，告诉他们你的感受。
Life is meaningful. Stop whatever you are doing and think about your life. What is important to you? What makes you happy? Or what makes you particularly sad? These are a few places you can start.
生活是有意义的。不管你在做什么，都要停下手中的事去思考你的生活。对你来说什么才是重要的？什么会使你快乐？或是什么会让你特别伤心？这些都是你可以重新出发的点。
Life's beautiful. It may seem like life‘s unfair because you didn't get you wanted after giving up so much. But these failures and setbacks will renew your perspective in life. You realise you didn't really need whatever you're working so hard for. You start to cherish the people and the things around you. Endure the darkness because it shows you the stars.
生活是美好的。有时候你可能会觉得生活待你不公，因为在你放弃很多东西以后依旧没有得到你想要的。但是这些失败和挫折都会刷新你的人生观。你会意识到你所努力争取的并不是你真正想要的。于是你开始懂得珍惜身边的人和事。忍受了黑暗才能看见漫天的繁星星

职场饼干文化：独享惹人厌分享更快乐
Revealed: Why you should NEVER dunk a biscuit in a cup of tea in the office
一两块小小的饼干看似不起眼，但却可能引发同事的反感，比如，你经常在办公桌用饼干蘸着茶水吃，顺手打开同事的饼干就吃，甚至还在别人桌子上留下饼干屑……不如，拿起你的饼干和同事分享，这不仅有助于自己的身心健康，还能促进你的职场关系和社交
Tens of thousands of workers across the country enjoy a cup of tea and a biscuit at their desks but now a study has revealed you should never dunk
at the office if you want to keep your colleagues on side.
英国有数万名职员有在办公桌前用饼干蘸着茶水吃的习惯，但一项最新研究显示，如果你不想把同事从身边赶跑，就千万不要这么做。
Dunking at your desk is considered a major faux-pas by a fifth of British tea drinking office workers, according to a new survey of 2,000 employees by McVitie's.
共有两千名职员参与了麦维他公司开展的这项调查，结果显示，有五分之一有饮茶习惯的英国职员认为，在办公桌边用饼干蘸着茶水吃是很失礼的行为。
That's in spite of a whopping 71 percent admitting they love to soak their biscuit in a cuppa.
尽管有多达71%的受访者承认，他们喜欢用饼干蘸着茶水吃。
The study also showed that other deplorable biscuit offences include opening a packet of biscuits that didn't belong to them, reports https://www.doczj.com/doc/1614051977.html,.
据大都会网站报道，调查还显示，其他让人讨厌的吃饼干行为还有，打开别人的饼干。
Leaving a trail of crumbs on someone's desk was also considered to be an abomination, with 38 percent calling this a major faux-pas.
在别人的办公桌上留下一堆饼干屑也让人生厌，有38%的受访者认为这是很失礼的行为。
Biscuits don't always divide colleagues however, according to another study.
但根据另一项研究，饼干并不总是造成同事之间的隔阂。
A previous survey by McVitie's found that half of British workers say sharing the sweet treats with colleagues makes them feel happier, with more than a quarter saying they even helped forge stronger relationships. 麦维他公司之前开展的一项研究显示，半数的英国职员认为与同事分享甜食让他们更开心，超过四分之一的人说这还有助于增进同事关系。
Ten percent of office workers say that sharing biscuits even helped them bag a romantic date with one of their colleagues.
10%的受访职员表示，和同事分享饼干甚至曾促成过同事之间的约会。According to the research, people in social care are the biggest biscuit sharers at work, followed by accountants and teachers.
这项研究发现，从事社会护理工作的职员最爱和同事分享饼干，会计和教师排在其后。
However, some workforces love their biscuits so much, they just can't bear to share them, with more than a third of British workers confessing to going to great lengths to keeping them all for themselves.
然而，还一些职员太爱吃饼干了，因此不愿与他人分享。超过三分之一的英国受访者表示会想尽办法不去分享。
More than a quarter of construction workers have eaten biscuits in their car so colleagues wouldn't see, while 17 percent of IT workers confess to eating biscuits on the sly.
超过四分之一的建筑工人曾在车里吃饼干，这样同事就看不到了。有17%的网络技术职员称他们会暗地里偷偷吃。
And a fifth of those working in hospitality and entertainment admit to
hiding away their treats in the company toilet so they can enjoy their favorite biscuits in secret.
有五分之一的服务业和娱乐业职员承认，他们会把饼干偷藏在公司卫生间，这样就可以偷偷享用了。

Text 2 Do you remember all those years when scientists argued that smoking would kill us but thedoubters insisted that we didn‘t know for sure? That the evidence was inconclusive, the scienceuncertain? That the antismoking lobby was out to destroy our way of life and the government shouldstay out of the way? Lots of Americans bought that nonsense, and over three decades, some 10million smokers went to early graves. There are upsetting parallels today, as scientists in one wave after another try to awaken us tothe growing threat of global warming. The latest was a panel from the National Academy ofSciences, enlisted by the White House, to tell us that the Earth‘s atmosphere is definitely warmingand that the problem is largely man-made. The clear message is that we should get moving to protectourselves. The president of the National Academy, Bruce Alberts, added this key point in the prefaceto the panel‘s report: ―Science never has all the answers. But science does provide us with the bestavailable guide to the future, and it is critical that our nation and the world base important policieson the best judgments that science can provide concerning the future consequences of presentactions.‖Just as on smoking, voices now come from many quarters insisting that the science about globalwarming is incomplete, that it‘s OK to keep pouring fumes into the air until we know for sure. Thisis a dangerous game: by the time 100 percent of the evidence is in, it may be too late. With the risksobvious and growing, a prudent people would take out an insurance policy now. Fortunately, the White House is starting to pay attention. But it‘s obvious that a majority of thepresident‘s advisers still don‘t take global warming seriously. Instead of a plan of action, theycontinue to press for more research —a classic case of ―paralysis by analysis.‖ To serve as responsible stewards of the planet, we must press forward on deeper atmosphericand oceanic research. But research alone is inadequate. If the Administration won‘t take thelegis lative initiative, Congress should help to begin fashioning conservation

小学英语阅读理解的常见题型设置及解题技巧 在小学阶段，阅读理解题型灵活多样，但主要有以下题型： 一、读一读，然后选一选。 这种题型的特点是在短文后给出若十个不完整的句子或若干个根据短文内容提出的问题，针对每一题都提供三到四个备选的答案，要求同学们在正确理解短文内容的基础上，从选项中选出一个正确的答案。这类试题的问题一般是紧扣短文内容编排的，既会涉及文章中的细节内容，如文中出现的人物、时间、地点、事件的前因后果等；也会涉及文章中某个词或某个句子的含义以及文章的主旨、大意和标题等。 The big day comes at last! Mrs Jones' third grade students are waiting quietly for her to come into the classroom. Today Amy brings some cakes, Joy brings some napkins, Carlos brings some soda water and Kate brings some cups. Everyone wants the party to he a surprise. Mrs Jones doesn't know the children have known today is her birthday.

Amy B.Carlos C.Joey D.Kate 分析 题1短文的第二句话告诉我们是琼斯老师的三年级的学生们正静静地等候她的到来。在年级前面应该用序数词来表示，如果是在年级后面就应该用基数词表示。如：the third grade,=Grade Three.同时因为前面有定语Mrs Jones'，所以这里也应该不要the。 题2.3 短文介绍了几个同学分别带了一些东西。卡洛斯带了soda water （汽水），艾米带了蛋糕。 正确答案：1.B 2.C 3. A 二、读一读，然后判断句子正误。 该题型的特点是在短文后给出若干个句子，要求同学们根据短文内容，判断所给的句子意思是否与原文相符。做这类题应该联系短文内容进行发挥，主要是考查对意思相近或相反的几个句子进行鉴别、判断，或是变换词语、句子结构来测试同种意思的不同表达。 There are some public numbers. Do you know when to use these numbers? 110 is a number for calling policeman when you have meet some illegal things. 119 is a number using for a fire accident.
美联英语提供：英语阅读：如何选择正确的英语课外阅读材料 小编给你一个美联英语官方试听课申请链接：https://www.doczj.com/doc/1614051977.html,/?tid=16-73374-0我们常说的英语阅读就是读者利用相关的英语知识和非英语知识去解读包含一定英语知识和非英语知识的阅读材料。英语知识是指读者英语语音、词汇、语法以及篇章知识的总和，而非英语知识是指读者英语知识以外的背景知识，即直接或间接获取的知识经验的总和。 在培养学生的英语语言综合运用能力听说读写过程中，阅读能力的提高对于英语学习者来说是重中之重。诚如刘润清教授所总结的那样“正式的外语教学与其他学科教学一样，要想真正掌握一门外语，需要大量的阅读，有独立的思维过程和分析总结过程”。 课外阅读是高中英语教学的必要补充。高中英语大纲明确指出：要提高学生的阅读能力，单纯通过教科书的课文教学是远远不够的，还要根据学生的具体情况，有计划地指导学生在课外阅读一定数量的课外读物。理由是：第一，现行的课文教学篇目少，篇幅短，不能保证充分的阅读活动;第二，精读教学担负着语言知识教学的任务，所以，课文生词和新的语言结构的密度大，不适用于流畅阅读的训练;第三，精读实际上综合训练，大量的时间用于为语言点的掌握而安排的听、说、读、写操练上，读的专门训练不够。因此，大纲的指出实际上对我们的外语教师提出了更高的、更全面的要求。 我们的理解是，这里的课外阅读即泛读，让学生独立阅读，但又不是“放羊式”的阅读，而是在教师有计划的指导下进行的课外阅读。因此，我们认为泛读既是阅读材料的问题，也是阅读方法的问题，老师应做到以下几点： 首先，给学生选择时应掌握以下原则：(1)思想性强,内容健康; (2)材料难易适合学生的实际水平; (3)题材涉及面广，材料新颖，具有趣味性; (4)文章体载多样化; (5)语言地道、规范。

如何提高小学英语阅读理解能力 摘要 选择适合小学生阅读的材料，激发阅读兴趣。指导阅读方法，养成良好的阅读习惯，提高学生的阅读能力，为终身学习打基础。 关键词： 阅读能力，阅读习惯，阅读方法，策略 英语是传输信息的重要工具之一。一个人英语阅读能力的高低，往往决定了他吸收有用的信息的数量和质量。新课标指出：“要达到这样的目标，没有足够的语言输入量是不行的。”成功的英语教学要依赖大量的语言材料和语言实践。在阅读训练中，它可以帮助学生得到乐趣，获取信息，培养学生的英语阅读理解能力，使学生养成良好的英语阅读习惯，具有正确的阅读技巧，拥有主动学习的能力和合作精神，为终身学习打下基础。但是小学生由于刚刚开始学习英语，受所学知识内容的局限，教师往往忽视对学生阅读能力的培养，这不利于学生的终身学习的发展。因此，从小学阶段开始教师就应该有意识培养学生良好的英语阅读能力策略。我在以下几方面做了些尝试： 一、选材恰当，激发阅读兴趣 新课标指出：小学英语课程的目的首先是激发学习兴趣，培养英语学习的积极态度，使他们建立初步的学习英语的自信心，培养一定的语感…为进一步学习打下基础。因此，在阅读内容的选择上，要注重“兴趣第一”的原则。在二年级的先锋英语教材中，每当老师在教每个单元的故事时，学生的兴趣非常浓，很乐意去读、去模仿，因为故事的内容有趣好玩。选择中、高年级的阅读材料，不仅要趣味性浓，还要贴近生活，以激发学生阅读的兴趣。在教《开心学英语》四年级介词一课后，我就让学生阅读这篇文章并根据内容四人小组画出相应的图画：Sue is very messy. That’s her room. The doll is under the bed. The lamp is on the chair. The stuffed animal is in the box. The puzzle is in front of the bookcase. The violin is between the bed and the chair. Her glasses are next to the table. 阅读内容都是学生熟悉的材料，学生参与热情高涨，兴趣浓厚。五、六年级可以选择学生们喜欢的有动物的故事，如：Three little pigs, Cry wolf, The ugly ducking。也可以选择有逻辑性的文章，如：Six monkeys are sitting in a tree. They have hats on their hands. Two hats are yellow. Two hats are red. One hat is blue and one hat is green. The first monkey is fat. The second monkey is thin. They have the same color hats. The third monkey is black. His hat is not blue. The fourth monkey has a green hat. The fifth monkey has a red hat. He is small. The sixth monkey is big. The big monkey and the small monkey have different color hats. 学生读后，学生就给猴子的帽子涂上正确的颜色。在阅读的过程中发展学生的思维，激发学生的阅读兴趣。 二、指导阅读方法，养成良好的阅读习惯 阅读习惯的好坏直接影响着阅读的效率。小学生刚接触英语，并不知道如何很好地去阅读，老师要给学生进行正确的指导，而阅读习惯需要经过一段时间才能养成的。教师要在平时教学中应有计划地、不断地养成学生的阅读习惯。在每次进行阅读训练时，我都从这几方面对学生进行阅读习惯的培养：

Fulfilling the dream 陈柏霖：实现梦想需要时间和 耐心。 词数 389 建议阅读时间 5 分钟 HOW long will you wait to succeed in your dream career? Ten years or longer, Taiwan actor Bolin Chen would say. The 29-year-old finally earned back all his hard work when he won Best Leading Actor for his role in the popular TV series In Time With You (《我可能不会爱你》) at the 47th Golden Bell Awards, which was held in Taipei on Oct 26. From a very young age, we have a dream, whether it’s to be a painter, a scientist or a writer. But the desire (渴望) to paint, discover or tell stories fades (消褪) as we grow up, until that moment of finding our deep calling hits us. For Chen, this came when he was discovered by director Yee Chih-Yen in front of an ice cream store at the age of 19. Chen had considered becoming an excellent dancer, a model and a singer before h e played the male lead in Yee’s movie Blue Gate Crossing (《蓝色大门》). His first taste of fame with the well-received drama showed him what he really wanted to be. Bolin Chen, 29, won his first award after ten years of acting. XINHUA
