    Do this and you’ll be welcome anywhere．

    Why read this book to find out how to win friends?Why not study the technique of the greatest winner of friends the wodd has ever known?Who is he?You may meet him coming down the street．When you get within ten feet of him，he will begin to wag its tail．If you stop and pat him，he’ll jump out of his skin to show you how much he likes you．And you know this show of love．There is no secret motives：he doesn’t want to sell you any real estate，and he doesn’t want to be your husband or wife．

    Did you ever stop to think that a dog is the only animal that doesn’t have to work for a living?A hen has to lay eggs；a cow has to give milk；and a canary has to sing．But a dog makes a living by giving you nothing but love．

    When I was five years old，my father bought a little yellow―haired young dog for fifty cents．He was the light and joy of my childhood．Every afternoon amund four thirty，he would sit in the front yard with his beautiful eyes staring at the road，and as soon as he heard my voice or saw me through the bush，he was off like a shot，racing breathlessly up the hill to greet me with leaps of joy and barks of cheer．

    Tippy was my good companion for five years．Then one night―I shall never forget it―he was killed within ten feet of my head，killed by lightning．Tippy’s death was the terrible event of my childhood．

    You never read a book on psychology，Tippy．You didn’t need to．You know that one can make more friends in months by being really interested in other people than one can in two years by trying to get other people interested in him．Let me repeat that．You can make more friends in two months by becoming interested in other people than you can in two years by trying to get other people interested in you．

Most people nowadays are persistently seeking for opportunities that will assist them in reaching their goals. Marketing yourself is when there is a demand for you and your services that will help you achieve your goals.

Marketing yourself means you are simply “selling” yourself! The common problem in marketing yourself is that most people think that it is nasty to do this.They think that marketing concerns only to a business. Of course, this is absolutely not true. People who want to attain the success they desire must promote themselves.

In every attempt you make, just think that marketing yourself is a very useful tool. The better you market yourself, the more opportunities you will have. Marketing yourself does not really mean telling every person how beautiful and wonderful you are. It simply means telling your prospective employer that you exist, that you have the possibility of generating much greater income than your prospective employer makes. Or maybe you have the chance of doing something better. There are actually several different ways of marketing yourself.But there are only two primary approaches that you implement(实施)．The first is you find ways to reach out to others and the second is to construct ways in order for the people to find you and make connection with you.

In order for you to reach out and touch the lives of others, you have to be a good person and a good employee.In that way your good reputation will follow naturally. Have a brief and concise(简明) message that you can share with others.When you market yourself, you tell people who you are and what you can do for others.Plan well and practice your message.

In constructing ways for the people to notice and make connection with you, you must be open to them. Bear in mind that communication is a great opportunity to make an impact especially when you market yourself. You also communicate by what you are wearing.Know the appropriate dress code and have plenty of time to decide what you will wear. Just remember to make a great first impression!

An Ofsted (英国教育标准办公室）study reports that teachers are discouraging students who want to leave school and work as apprentices (学徒）in beauty salons (美容中心）or hair dressers.

　　Inspectors questioned 105 young people for a report on apprenticeships published on Wednesday. They found several examples of young people who felt they had been laughed at by their teachers for wanting to progress to work-based learning, particularly in care or hairdressing, rather than stay on at school.

　　Right or wrong, is it any surprise that this is happening? From 2014，the government will measure schools according to the rate of their pupils who go to university. Brian Lightman , general secretary of the Association of School and College Leaders, says the government has already put teachers under “very great pressure to focus on academic subjects”

　　On the other hand, the Education Act 2011，which came into force in November, places schools under a duty to give fair career advice to pupils. This advice must include information on all post-16 education and training choices, including apprenticeships. This doesn’t appear to be happening in several schools, according to Ofsted9S report. Many of the young people the inspectors talked to said the advice they had received on apprenticeships was “unsatisfactory”.

　　Schools were also blamed for lack of work experience courses, which are particularly important for teenagers considering an apprenticeship. They help students decide whether they enjoy a line of work and enable employers to see whether those on work experience have the potential to be hired as apprentices in future years.

　　But there is a good reason why they can’t do this: they’d be unable to adapt to GCSE (英 国齊通中等教育证书）exams if they did. Sometimes, it seems, schools just can’t win.

1.Why do teachers oppose the students’ leaving school and working as apprentices?

A. The government urges teachers to concentrate on academic subjects.

B. The students are only wasting time working as apprentices.

C. Employers are under great pressure of taking GCSE exams.

D. Employers don’t give students chances to work as apprentices

2.Pressure for schools to provide pupils with career advice comes from ______. 

A. Association of School and College Leaders

B. Education Act 2011

C. GCSE exams

D. OFSTED

3.The underlined word “They” in Paragraph 5 refers to _____.

A. schools

B. employers    

C. work experience courses

D. teenagers considering an apprenticeship

4.What does the author think of teachers’ discouraging students working as apprentices?

A. Surprising               B. Understandable

C. Wrong           D. Right

 

Pets are popular. They’re good listeners, they encourage us to exercise, and they’re always on our side when we argue with others. They can bring people comfort and pleasure.

But it is important to keep in mind that pets can carry diseases that can make you sick. Washing your hands often — especially after you touch, feed, or clean up a pet — is the best way to keep yourself healthy and prevent the spread of disease. Be sure to clean your fingernails carefully every time you wash.

You also can protect your health by wearing gloves while cleaning animal cages or cat litter boxes. Avoid washing your pet in the bathtub(浴缸), but if you do, always disinfect(消毒) the tub immediately afterward.

Be sure to bring your pet to the hospital for examinations every two weeks or month and whenever your pet is sick or injured.

You can do a few other things to keep yourself and your pet healthy. Only give your pet food that has been planned ahead for them. It’s not a good idea to share your food with your pet. Human food (like chocolate) can make animals sick. Never feed your pet raw(生的) meat because it can carry germs(细菌) that cause serious illness.

And funny as it can be to see your dog or cat drinking from the toilet, don’t let pets do this. It’s bad for your pet’s health! Give them clean, fresh water to drink at all times.

Never give milk to cats. The only milk an animal should drink is from its mother. Cow’s milk is not for pets, especially for cats, as it makes them sick.

Finally, some animals aren’t pets. Don’t take in a wild or abandoned(被抛弃的) animal as a pet because it may have diseases that could make you or your family sick. Instead, turn to an animal rescue group that is trained in helping sick or abandoned animals.

1.The first paragraph mainly tells us that pets can ______.

A．be great friends                        B．bring us pleasure

C．help us keep healthy                     D．do harm to us

2.To keep healthy, the author may be against ______.

4.Which is the RIGHT way to feed your pet?

A．Sharing your chocolate with your dog.

B．Letting your dog drink from the toilet.

C．Feeding your little cat with raw meat.

Have you ever noticed what happens to an idea once you express it? Just talking about it or writing it down causes you to make it clear in your own mind. How can you use this to increase your brain power? Start writing.

By putting thoughts into words，you are telling yourself the logic(逻辑)behind what you think，feel，or only partly understand. Often，explaining a thought is the process of understanding. In other words，you increase your brain power by exercising your “explain power”．

Try this experiment. Explain how you’ll increase your brain power，even if you have no idea how right now. Just start with anything，and create an explanation. For example，start with “I’ll learn chess，” or “I’ll read an article on the mind every week.” Explain how that will help. You’ll be surprised how often this becomes a workable plan，and if you actually do this，you’ll have a better  understanding of your brain twenty minutes from now.

Another benefit of writing is that it helps you remember. Many，if not most，highly productive people are always taking notes. You can try keeping it all in your head，but if you keep a journal of your ideas the next time you’re working on a big project，you’ll probably have more success.

Want to understand a topic? Write a book about it. That’s an extreme example，but if you are learning something new，write a letter to a friend about it，and you will understand it better. Want to invent something? Write an explanation of the problem，why you want to solve it，and why it is worth solving，and you’re half-way there.

Writers don’t always write because they clearly understand something beforehand. Often，they write about something because they want to understand it. You can do the same. Writing will help bring you to an understanding. Give it a try.

1.What would be the best title for the text?

A．A Way on How to Write

B．Increase Your Brain Power Through Writing

C．Brain Power Helps Improve Your Writing

D．How to Start Your Writing

2.According to the text，writing can help you a lot in the following ways EXCEPT ________.

A．the increase of your brain power

B．the ability to remember

C．the development of your interest in study

D．the better understanding of a topic

3.The underlined sentence “you’re half-way there” in Paragraph 5 implies that ________.

A．you are already successful

B．you still need to work hard

C．writing can help you walk half way

D．writing is important to solve problems

4.What’s the main purpose of the writer writing the text?

A．To advise readers to start their writing.

B．To explain the importance of writing.

C．To persuade readers to become writers.

D．To increase readers’ brain power.

 

Write NO MORE THAN THREE WORDS for each answer.

Why must we pay taxes（税收）? The answer is that the government needs money for many things, for example, to pay its soldiers, sailors and airmen, to build roads, bridges, offices, schools, etc, and to buy goods from abroad; and only the people of the country can supply the money.

 One of the most important taxes is income-tax which a person pays according to the amount of his income, whether he is a merchant, a doctor, a lawyer, a shopkeeper, a miner or anything else. This is called a “direct” tax, because it is paid in money directly to the government.

 Another tax is paid on goods such as watches, jewelry, new clothes, tobacco, wine, etc, when they are brought into a country. Such a tax is paid as part of the price of these goods if they are late sold in shops. We call it “indirect” tax, because it is paid indirectly through the shopkeepers.

 People usually complain about having to pay taxes, but they forget that the money is spent on things that they and their families need. We need policemen to catch thieves, to see that men obey the laws, to direct traffic, etc, and they must be paid what they earn; children need education and there must be schools and teachers; we want our streets to be kept clean, and the wages of men who do this kind of work have to be paid. Above all, the country must always be ready to defend itself against attacking enemies, and we can’t have an army without paying for it. Besides, if a country wants to develop, there are many other things to do.

 Taxes, therefore, cannot be avoided. We buy our food and clothes and pay for our amusements; but, there are several things that the State finds the money for, and that is necessary for us if our society is to continue. We have no real reason to complain, therefore, when we are asked to supply money to be spent for the good of ourselves and for our fellow-citizens.
