Confidence is very important in daily life. It can help you to develop a healthy attitude. A study shows that the people who are more confident are much happier. They can have more chance to make themselves successful. But how to be more confident? Here are some suggestions:
Speak loud   When you are not confident, you can’t do well what you want to do. You speak in a voice so low that other people can hardly hear you. Try to speak loud enough so that people can hear you clearly. The high voice can help you become more confident.
Play sports   Physical exercise makes you tired but completely relaxed. A strong body helps you be full of confidence.
Encourage yourself  Write down a list of things you did during the day to see how many things you have done well. Did you finish your homework? Did you tell a joke that made everybody laugh? Give yourself praise for the good things you’ve done.
Get rid of (消除) fear  Fear comes along with failure. But it’s easy to overcome (克服) if you know that failure is part of your life. Don’t hide your head just because you said something stupid last time. Try to start again and believe you can do better.
Pick up a hobby   If you like singing, sing as much as you can. In some ways, a hobby can make you outstanding. And it will make you happy and confident.

A 15-year-old student who invented a flashlight(手电筒) getting power from the holder's body heat is going home today from California with a big prize and a chance to do further research.
Ann Makosinski was the only Canadian among the four winners at Google's international science competition. Thousands of young scientists from around the world took part in the competition.
Winning the science and technology competition was "a surprise". Ann said, "I think it will have a great influence on my future."
Ann thanked her family for encouraging her interest in science and said that her first toy was a box of transistors(晶体管).
Ann's prize includes $ 25,000 and a "once in a-lifetime expericnce" from Google for her Hollow Flashlight, which has no moving parts or batteries.
The idea for the invention came from seeing unwanted batteries and her friend's experience. When Ann visited a friend in the Philippines, she saw the friend couldn't study when it became dark because there was no electricity or light. She saw the need for a flashlight that has no batteries - Hollow Flashlight.
In her project, Ann wrote "I made two flashlights that do not use any batteries or harmful materials. They do not create any noise and will always work. The flashlight needs at least a 5℃ temperature difference between the holder's body and the environment around to produce light."
A video of Ann explaining how she creatcd the flashlight has been watched more than 1.4 million times on the Internet.
Though Ann was successful, she has not made a decision about her career path. Ann hopes that she can find a way to join her love of film and science together.
The four winners were chosen from 15 final competitors from eight countries. The competition attracted thousands of students in 120 countries.

Decisions, decisions! Our lives are full of them, from the small ones to the life-changing. The right to choose is central to everyone. Yet sometimes we make bad decisions that leave us unhappy or full of regret. Can science help?
Most of us know little about the mental processes that lie behind our decisions. Luckily, what psychologists(心理学家)are finding may help us all make better choices. Here are some of their amazing discoveries to help you make up your mind.
Consider your emotions. You might think that emotions are the enemy of decision making, but in fact they are a part of it. Whenever you make up your mind, your brain’s emotional centre is active. University of Southern California scientist, Antonio Damasia, has studied people with damage to only the emotional parts of their brains , and found that they were unable to make basic choices about what to wear or eat. Damasia thinks this may be because our brains store emotional memories of past choice, which we use to help the present decision-making.
However, making choices under the influence of an emotion can greatly affect the result. Take anger, for example. A study by Nitika Garg of the University of Mississippi and other scientists found the angry shoppers were more likely to choose the first thing they were offered rather than considering other choices. It seems that anger can lead us to make quick decisions without much thinking.
All emotions affect our thinking and motivation（动机），so it may be best to avoid making important decisions under their influence. Yet strangely there is one emotion that seems to help us make good choices. The American researchers found that sad people took time to consider the various choices on offer, and ended up making the best choices. In fact many studies show that people who feel unhappy have the most reasonable view of the world.
小题1:According to the text, what may help us make better decisions?
A．To think about happy times.
B．To make many decisions at a time.
C．To stop feeling regretful about the past.
D．To learn about the process of decision-making.
小题2:What does the underlined word “central” mean?
A．中心的B．中央的C．起决定作用的D．后悔的
小题3:Damasia’s study suggests that ________.
A．emotions are the enemy of decision making.
B．our brain has nothing to do with decision making.
C．people with physical damage find it hard to make up their minds.
D．our emotional memories of past choices can affect present decisions.
小题4:Why are angry shoppers more likely to choose the first thing they are offered?
A．They often forget their past choices.
B．They make decisions without much thinking.
C．They tend to save time when shopping.
D．They are too angry to bargain.
小题5:What do we learn from the text?
A．Emotions are a part of decision-making.
B．Sad people always make worse choices.
C．No emotion seems to help us make good choices.
D．Only sad feeling affect our thinking and motivation.

Science and technology are developing quickly. On the one hand they can improve our lives, but on the other hand, they can cause pollution. 小题1:
Air pollution is a serious problem. Factories and heavy traffic give out a lot of smoke and make the air dirty.        小题2:So the government should take action and make everyone keep the air clean.
The main reasons for noise pollution are heavy traffic and road works. 小题3:Therefore, the government should try to make less noise.
Factories put a lot of dirty water and chemicals into the rivers and the sea. They pollute the water. 小题4:      And it also can make sea animals sick. So the government should stop factories doing that.
The main reasons for land pollutions are construction and people. Construction makes much waste and people throw away a lot of rubbish every day. 小题5: People should stop throwing away so much rubbish and start using old things again.
Everybody hates rats. But rats may soon be man’s new good friend.
What happens after an earthquake? We send in rescue(援救)dogs. Why? Because they can smell people. Dogs save lives. They help rescuers to find living people. But dogs are big and they can’t get into small spaces. So now a new research project is using a smaller animal to save lives: the rat.
How does it work? First, the rat is trained to smell people. When this happens, the rat’s brain gives a signal(信号). This is sent to a small radio on its back, and then the rescuers follow the radio signals. When the rat’s brain activity jumps, the rescuers know that someone is alive. The rat has smelled that person.
Although there are already robots which can do this job, rats are better. “Robots’ noses don’t work well when there are other smells around. Rats are good at that.” Rats can also see in the dark, they are cheaper and quicker to train than dogs, and unlike robots, they don’t need electricity!
The “rat project” is not finished, but a scientist says, “It would be great. A rat could get into spaces we couldn’t get to, and a rat would get out if it wasn’t safe.” Perhaps for the first time in history, people will be happy to see a rat in a building (but only after an earthquake, of course).
小题1:In the writer’s opinion, rats may become man’s new friend because         .
A．they can be food for people
B．they can help rescuers to find living people
C．they are lovely
D．they can completely replace man’s rescue jobs
小题2:What does the underlined word “this” mean?
A．An earthquake.
B．The rat has smelled a person
C．The rat has smelled that someone is alive
D．The rat has found a robot.
小题3:Which of the following is NOT true?
A．Rats don’t need electricity.
B．Rats are better than robots when smelling.
C．Rats are as clever as radios.
D．Rats can see things in the dark when doing rescues.
小题4:Why does the “rat project” sound great according to the passage?
A．Because rats can get into very small spaces.
B．Because rats have better noses than dogs.
C．Because rats don’t like robots.
D．Because rats are brave.
小题5:Which is the best title of this passage?
A．Ways of saving peopleB．Rats and robotsC．After earthquakeD．Rats for rescue
To write a great news story, you have to make sure it is correct, relevant (相关的) and fresh.
For a start, all the information in a story must be correct. Not only the spelling and grammar, but also the facts.
Any mistakes that appear in a story can get a newspaper into big trouble.
For example, if a newspaper said that Yang Liwei was the first man to go into space, it would be wrong. He wasn't the first. The newspaper would probably lose lots of readers because of that mistake
A news story is not only correct , but also relevant to its readers. People are mostly interested in news that happens near to them. That is why you care more about what happens at your school than at American schools. It is also why newspapers in Beijing don't talk about much news in Shanghai or Hong Kong .
Finally, news must always be fresh. When you pick up your evening newspaper, you want to read about news that happens that day. You don't want to read about news from last week!
So, now you know what makes a good news story. Have a good look at our newspaper and see if it is full of good news .You can try writing a news story for our newspaper like a real reporter.
小题1:The writer mentions              main factors (因素) to make a news story really great.
A．twoB．threeC．fourD．five.
小题2:According to the writer, newspaper in Nanchang should talk much about news in           
A．NanchangB．Hong Kong.
C．Shanghai.D．Beijing.
小题3:Which of the following is true ?
A．A small mistake can't get a newspaper into trouble.
B．A lot of people like reading about news from last week.
C．The passage doesn't tell us who was the first man to go into space.
D．People are mostly interested in news that happens far away from them.
小题4:The passage mainly talks about                
A．why to be a good reporter.
B．where to find interesting news.
C．when to choose a good newspaper.
D．how to write a great news story
The largest animal ever to live on Earth is the blue whale（鲸鱼）. It weighs(重) about 80 tons-more than 24 big elephants. It is more than 30 metres long. A new baby whale weighs as much as a big elephant. Cats won't die if they fall off very high places because they can turn themselves up the right way so as to keep their bodies safe. One cat fell off 32 floors onto the street, but it was just hurt a little. A bear can run as fast as a horse.  A new-born panda is smaller than a mouse and weighs about 100 grams.  Elephants are the most careful animals in their love. A male（雄性） elephant may show his lady love for up to three years until the female(雌性) elephant takes his love. They often show their love by touching each other's body. Usually, wolves do not hurt people. For years a Canadian newspaper says that they would give anyone a lot of money if he or she could show that a wolf could hurt a person. But nobody could do that. Wolves do not usually go together though（尽管） they may do this in winter and they only hurt people at an unusual time.
小题1:How much does a new-born blue whale weigh?
A．About 10 tonsB．As much as a baby elephant
C．About 80 tonsD．About 3 tons
小题2:A bear can run_______people think they can.

Do you remember the name of your kindergarten(幼儿园) teacher? I do. Her name was Mrs White.
I don’t remember much about     we learned in her class, but my mother once told me that we    write a lot. And I would bring back what I wrote and she could see there were so many mistakes.    no red corrections. And always a star. Sometimes even a Good! It worried my mother, so one day she went to    Mrs White and asked her why she     corrected my mistakes.
And my mother says Mrs White said “The children are just     to get excited about using words, about forming sentences. I don’t want to lose the interests with red ink(墨水).     and grammar can wait. The wonder of     won’t... ”.Maybe she didn’t say it exactly like that at that moment. And what my mother gave me was the main idea of what she could remember.
I     now and think Mrs White must have been a rather    teacher. She encouraged joy, wonder and excitement — even if our expression of it was     . Because she believed a bud(花蕾)once nipped(掐断) never opens.
I used to misspell “beautiful” a lot. Never could quite remember that the e went    the a. It annoyed my teacher in high school very much. If I was going to use the word so often, she considered the    I could do was spell it right. Finally the e’s and a’s were in their right places. Am glad I didn’t wait on them though. Pretty is    to spell but it doesn’t hold as much as you mean sometimes.
And    Mrs White I had no worries about writing what I meant. Because Life isn’t Pretty. It’s Baeutiful.
