To understand meditation（冥想）through an experiment, you can take two pictures with a camera. Hold your camera still and take the first picture. Now, shake your camera and take the second picture. The difference in clarity（清晰度）between the two pictures is the difference in clarity of a life with and without meditation.

Meditation means different things to different people. There are many methods to reach the state of meditation. Our intention in this Life School Message is not to compare different practices. What we'd like to do is to give you a glimpse into what benefits can arise as a result of meditation.

One of the most important functions for human survival is the ability to adapt and adjust to our surroundings. The brain and body are dealing with an unbelievable amount of stimuli(刺激) in every single moment of life. Focusing on all of them at once would be impossible. So, the mind tends to shift as many stimuli as possible to the subconscious back burner.

For example, you probably aren't paying attention to the feel of your shirt on your body until you read this sentence. Now that I've mentioned it, I've brought it back into your conscious thoughts, and you do notice it. Somewhere in the next few paragraphs, your mind will place it on the back burner again to be able to focus on understanding this article. Fascinating, isn't it? Our minds do this constantly.

Meditation helps you to increase your awareness and helps you to stay focused on the right things of life. It ensures you do not get distracted and helps you do stay alert. It helps you to understand the past, live the present and create the future.

For the people who have no knowledge or experience of this particular subject, let me share a basic yet one of the most powerful methods that can lead you to meditation.

1.What is the main purpose of taking two pictures?

A. To tell people how to take a good picture.

B. To compare the difference between two photos.

C. To show the effect meditation has on life.

D. To give us a clear definition of meditation.

2.What is the aim of the book Life School Message mentioned in Paragraph 2?

A. To teach you how to adapt to our surroundings.

B. To tell you how to reach the state of meditation.

C. To make you understand the benefits of meditation.

D. To teach you the right way to deal with stimuli.

3.Although you have the shirt in your conscious thoughts, why will you place it on the back burner again later?

A. Because shirt is not important.

B. Because you've brought it back into your conscious thoughts.

C. Because your minds do this constantly.

D. Because you need to move on to understanding this article.

4.The benefits of meditation include the following EXCEPT ________.

A. increasing your awareness

B. helping you keep alert

C. helping you stay focused on the right things

D. helping you solve the problems in life

About 70 scientists were working on a very busy project. All of them felt really desperate due to the pressure of work and the demands of their boss but everyone was loyal to him and did not think of quitting their job.

One day, one scientist came to his boss and told him, “Sir, I’ve promised to take my children to the exhibition going on in our township so I want to leave at 5:30 p. m.” His boss replied, “OK. You’re permitted to leave the office early today.”

The scientist started working. He continued his work after lunch. As usual, he got involved to such an extent that he looked at his watch only when he felt he was close to completion. The time was 8:30 p. m. suddenly he remembered his promise to the children. He looked for his boss but he was not there. Having told him in the morning himself, he closed everything and left for home. Deep within himself, he was feeling guilty for having disappointed his children. He reached home. The children were not there. His wife alone was sitting in the hall and reading magazines. The situation was explosive; any talk would boomerang on him. His wife asked him, “Would you like to have coffee or shall I straight away serve dinner if you are hungry?” The man replied, “If you would like to have coffee, I too will have but what about the children?” His wife replied, “You don’t know? Your boss came here at 5:15 p. m. and has taken them to the exhibition.”

What had really happened was the boss who gave him permission was observing him working seriously at 5:00 p. m. He thought to himself: this person will not leave the work, but he’s promised to take his children to the exhibition. So he took the lead in taking them there. The boss does not have to do it every time. But once it’s done, loyalty is established.

That is why all the scientists at Thumba continued to work under their boss even though the stress was extraordinarily huge. By the way, can you boldly guess who the boss was? He was none other than the mastermind behind India’s successful nuclear weapons program, Dr. APJ Abdul Kalam, former president of India.

1.The scientist asked for an early leave because ________.

A. he felt increasingly desperate about his work

B. he’d promised to take his kids to a show

C. the task at hand was close to completion

D. he meant to accompany his wife at dinner

2.The underlined sentence implies that the scientist thought his wife was ________.

A. ready to serve dinner for him B. dissatisfied with his coming home late

C. grateful to his kind- hearted boss D. delighted to see him back home

3.The boss took children to the exhibition ________.

A. when it was too late for the scientist to do so

B. when the man’s wife asked him to do so

C. because the scientist was absorbed in his work

D. because he also wanted to see what was on show

4.All the scientists stayed loyal to their boss ________.

A. because he had power over them

B. to learn how to live under pressure

C. out of gratefulness for his thoughtfulness

D. every time he took the children to the show

Tests can be stressful even for the best students．1. Fortunately，there are several steps you can take to make your stress much more manageable．

Getting 6 hours of sleep or less can put you into what’s called a sleep deficit(不足)，which makes you less sharp mentally and prevents you from performing properly on tests．2. This way，you needn’t stay up for the test and can get a good night of sleep before your big day．

Study Smarter

3.Make a list of the most important things you need to learn and hit the items at the top of the list first．This will ensure they’re mostly covered if you run out of time．Make a list of all the work you have to do，estimate how long each item will take，and compare that with the amount of hours you have available．This will tell you if you can carefully read or just skim，how many times you can afford to revise the papers.

Visualize(想象)Success

A proven way to build your confidence is to visualize yourself taking the tests and doing wonderfully．Visualization can not only help you perform better in the tests but can help you remember facts．You can create detailed situations that involve the information you’re trying to remember．4.

Stay Calm

There’re several techniques that can help you calm down quickly．5. Just close your eyes，take a deep breath，hold it for a while and then let it out slowly．Your stress will come out with your exhales(呼气)．

A，Be organized with your studies．

B．Extra time on tests can bring success to students．

C．Test anxiety has a negative impact on your performance．

D．In this process you can strengthen the facts in your memory．

E．Breathing exercises can be extremely effective in helping you relax．

It was the first time that I1.(take) a trip to Shanghai with my family this summer holiday.

The views in Shanghai left a deep impression2.me. The soaring Oriental Pearl Tower, the bustling Nanjing Road, and the antique Chenghuang Temple are all features of a complex and diverse Shanghai. When night shut in, the city became3.charming paradise. I remember standing on the deck of a yacht(快艇) as the fresh wind quietly embraced us.4.(stand) against the rail, I saw sprays of the glittering Huangpu River fly along the side of 5.(we) yacht. The colorful lights on the banks were twinkling while the moonlight was dripping through the clouds. Shadows of the modern buildings were reflected on the water.6.(passenger) on the deck were deeply absorbed in the beauty of the night.

Not only the views,7.also the residents, touched me. I once found my cell phone8. (miss) during my stay in the city. After searching through every corner of my room and my pockets, I almost gave up hope. Unexpectedly, an hour9.(late) my mother picked up a phone call from a policeman who10.(say) a taxi driver had returned the phone. The policeman then returned my phone very soon.

The trip to Shanghai is one of the best in my memory.

Dear Mr Smith,

I am writing to tell you anything about the 10th English Speaking Contest I took part in it last week in our school.

I got the “Top Ten Prize” out of the 30 competitors ,who was completely beyond my imagination. A moment I heard the final result, I couldn’t believe my ears and jumped with joy, feeling amazing. Since the contest, whenever you had free time, you would help me practice my spoken English. You communicated with me, and corrected my pronounce. What’s more, you taught me a lot of speaking skills and made me full of confidence. If you haven’t helped me, I couldn’t have achieved such a good result. I have benefited this contest a lot.

All in all, thank you for which you have done for me.

Yours,

Wang Yuan

Something Fun

A person is on trial for murder in a court room in Oklahoma. There is strong evidence indicating guilt. However, the body is not found.

In the defense's(辩护）closing statement, the lawyer, knowing that his client is guilty and that it looks like he'll probably be convicted, resorted to a clever trick.

"Ladies and gentlemen of the jury(陪审团), I have a surprise for you all," the lawyer says as he looks at his watch." Within one minute, the person assumed dead in this case will walk into this court room," he says and he looks towards the court-room door. The jury, somewhat surprised, looks at the door eagerly. A minute passes. Nothing happens.

Finally the lawyer says," Actually, I made up the previous statement. But you all waited with expectation. I, therefore, put it to you that there is a reasonable doubt in this case as to whether anyone was killed and insist that you return a verdict(裁决）of no guilty.

The jury, clearly confused, retires to discuss.

A very few minutes later, the jury returned and a representative pronouns a verdict of guilty.
