If you're feeling disheartened,what strategies can make you feel better? It's pretty clear that repeating "I'm the greatest！" is not a good way to build healthy selfesteem. 1       When you're feeling lousy (讨厌的) about yourself,what can you do to feel better?

Here's the secret. To build your selfrespect,do something worthy of your respect. To like yourself better,do something that makes you likable. Here are some strategies to try:

1. Do a good deed. This is as selfish as it is selfless. 2       I had a friend who went through a period of tremendous rejection：She was fired from her job;she did not get into the graduate program to which she'd applied;her boyfriend broke up with her. Everything worked out fine in the end,and I asked her how she got through such a tough time. She said, "I was practically addicted to doing good deeds for other people. It was the only way I could make myself feel like I wasn't a total loser."

2. 3       Bring your old magazines to the gym so other people can read them. Offer directions to someone who looks lost. Sign up to be an organ donor. My current favorite： picking up trash that other people have left on the subway.

3. Become an expert. There's great satisfaction in mastery. Pick a subject that interests you,and dig in deep: the American Revolution,Photoshop,knife techniques. 4       But if you push through,you'll give yourself a huge boost. Be sure to pick something that honestly attracts you. Become an expert on The Sopranos,if that sounds interesting,but don't decide to learn about wine just because you think other people will be impressed. You're much less likely to stick with it,so you won't benefit as much.

4. Maintain your energy. Studies show that when you're feeling energetic,you're much more likely to feel good about yourself. Most important：get enough sleep.5      

   A. Strike a balance between work and play.

   B. Make small gestures of good citizenship.

   C. You'll benefit as much as the person you're helping.

   D. At the same time,it's a rare person who is not sometimes troubled with painful selfdoubt.

   E. If you need an emergency energy fix,take a quick tenminute walk,or listen to some great music.

   F. This can be hard,because learning something new can also make you feel frustrated and stupid.

   G. This strategy does not work for me,but I know that many people feel great after being encouraged by their friends.

如果你感到心灰意冷，有没有什么方法让自己感觉好一些？本文提出了重新建立自信的好办法。

1. D考查顺承关系。从该段可知，重复"我是最伟大的！"不是建立健康自信的好方法。每个人都会有时因缺少自信而感到困扰而当你觉得自己差劲，有什么方法能让自己感觉好点？因此D项最符合文意c

2. C考查递进关系。该段谈论的是做好事，并通过作者的一位朋友来阐述通过帮助别人，你给予了多少，就会收莸多少的道理。故C项符合文意。

3. B考查总分关系。该题考查主旨句，通过后文所举的事例可推断，作者是在鼓励大家为他人提供便利，做一个好公民。故B项符合文意。

4. F考查转折关系。从该段可知，你还可以选择一个令你感兴趣的专题，成为这个领域的"专家"。从后文连词but判断，此处应和下一句构成转折关系，故F项为最佳答案。

5. E考查递进关系。"研究显示，当你精力充沛时，更可能自我感觉良好。最重要的是：保持充足睡眠。"由上文可判断，下文应该是论述如何保持精力充沛，故E项最佳："如果你需要为精力紧急充电，快步走10分钟，或听好听的音乐。"

A shopkeeper once found that a bag money had been stolen from his shop. He went to the judge and tell him about his loss. The judge ordered all the people of the shop to come before them. He took a large amount of sticks of equal length and gave one stick to each person. Then he said, "Come after me again tomorrow. I'll then know which of you are the thief because the stick given to a thief will be one inch longer than the others. " The next day,the people came to the judge,and he found one stick was more shorter than any of the other. Of course,the person which had the shortest stick was the thief.

Not a day passes that you are not called upon to make many choices. Most of them are of 1       importance. It just depends on 2        you like it or not.

But sometimes you must make significant choices such as those that will affect your future. You are called upon 3         ( select) your courses for the following term or year. You may find 4        strange that you should choose between 5        important activity and a parttime job after school. Such 6          (choice) can be difficult and the final decision may be of 7         (last) significance.

Making a choice always means 8       (give) up one thing for another. You cannot be in two places at the same time. You cannot spend the same money twice. You must decide which of the two things is9       (much) important and make your choice. It pays as many things as you can 10        you act. A hasty decision often leads to regret and the loss of time,money and opportunity.

Nearly every parent loses control and screams at the children now and then. But what if you do it repeatedly?

Researchers suspect parents are yelling more. 1       Three out of four parents yell,scream or shout at their children or teens about once a month,on average,for misbehaving or making them angry,research shows. Increasingly,therapists and parenting experts are homing in on how it hurts a child,as well as how to stop it.

Research shows that many parents lose control because they feel attacked or think the child's actions reflect poorly on them. Teens whose parents use "harsh verbal discipline" such as shouting or insulting are more likely to have behavior problems and depression symptoms,says a recent study.

2       Eight-year-olds whose parents disciplined them by yelling have less satisfying relationships with romantic partners and spouses at age 23,according to a 15-year study led by Stephanie Parade,an assistant professor of psychiatry and human behavior at Brown University.

3       Warning signs can include：tightness in the throat or chest,rapid breathing,negative thoughts about oneself or feelings of being overwhelmed.

"Learning to start sentences with ' I,rather than * you' can help parents shift from an angry attack to a teaching moment," Ms. Faber says.

Leigh Fransen felt like yelling when her daughters,Alona and Elisha,forgot to feed the family dog,Balto,on two evenings in the same week. Ms. Fransen said, "I wanted to yell, 'You're not getting any dinner tonight,because you didn't feed the dog. 4       ，―that would lead to nothing but tears and misery."

Instead,she started her response with "I” ，saying, "I don't like seeing the dog not fed. Look at him: He is miserable.5       Ms. Fransen says. Alona and Elisha needed to be reminded of the deadline twice,but soon learned to remember on their own. Ms. Fransen praised them for taking responsibility and encouraged them.

   A. And you're going to know how it feels.

   B. I expect him to be fed before you eat your own dinner.

   C. Parents have been conditioned to avoid spanking,so they vent their anger by shouting instead.

   D. Parents can learn to notice signs that a blowup is brewing and dial down their own tension.

   E. Apologizing can help repair a relationship after an outburst.

   F. Another study suggests yelling at children may have consequences that go beyond those of spanking.

   G. Parents can turn a meltdown into a teaching moment by involving kids in finding solutions.

Australia is the only country that it is also a continent. It is the sixth largest countries in the world and is in the smallest continent―Oceania. It is a main dry country with only a few costal areas that have adequate rainfall to support large population. Approximately 80% of Australians live in the southeastern costal area,which include Australia's two largest cities― Melbourne and Sydney. The centre of a continent,that is mainly desert and dry grassland,has few settlements.

Australia is famous for its huge,open space,bright sunshine,enormous number of sheep and cattle or its unusual wildlife,including kangaroos and koalas. Australia is a popular destination with tourists from all over the world who came to experience its unique ecology.

It is made up with six states. Like the states in America,Australian states are autonomous in some areas. However,Australia has a federal government responsible for matters that affect people all over the country,such as defence,foreigner policy and taxation.

To be a good teacher,you need some of the gifts of a good actor―you must be able to hold the attention and interest of your audience;1       with a good,strong,pleasing voice which is fully under your control;and you must be able to act what you are teaching in order to make its meaning clear. Watch a good teacher,and 2      ;he stands the whole time for his explanations,using his face to express his feelings. Listen to him,and you will hear the loudness,the quality (音色) and the musical note of his voice always changing according to what he is talking about.

The fact that 3        doesn't mean that he will indeed be able to act well on the stage for there are very important differences between the teacher's work and the actor's. The actor has to repeat words which he has learnt by heart; he has to repeat exactly the same words. Each time he plays a certain part,even his movements and the ways in which he uses his voice are usually fixed beforehand. 4      

A good teacher works in quite a different way. His audience takes an active part in his play; they ask and answer questions;they obey orders,and if they don't understand something,they say so. 5       He cannot learn his part by heart,but must invent it as he goes along. I have known many teachers who were fine actors in class but unable to take part in a stage play because they could not keep strictly to what other people had written.

   A. you must be a clear speaker

   B. Teachers are very important for students.

   C. a good teacher has some of the gifts of a good actor

   D. you will see that he does not sit still before his class

   E. A good teacher must learn from a good actor on the stage.

   F. The teacher therefore has to meet the needs of his audience.

   G. What he has to do is to make all these carefully learnt words and actions natural on the stage.

I prefer my English classes to be taught in English only. What we all know,a good learning environment is of greatly importance if we want to study English well. Classes teaching in English provide students for a better environment. When English is an only language in class,students will have more opportunity to practise listening and speaking. However,there were problems to this method. Sometimes we may find difficult to follow the teacher and some slow learners may even give up learn English. In spite of these difficulties,I still believe the practice makes perfect. With enough practice,we can overcome the difficulties and benefit from English classes in the long run.

    Thanks to a loyal dog and a group of volunteers,two dogs were found safe after being lost in the woods in the state of Washington for a week. Tillie,the kind dog,stayed with her doggie friend Phoebe for a week. She left each day to find help. Phoebe was trapped in a dry concrete pool in a ravine ( where Tillie stood guard.
