?Long time ago, if a child had some problems in his life, he might go home and write in his 21 . Now, a child with the same problems might go onto the Internet and write about them in a blog（博客. In many ways, a diary and a blog are very 22 .So, what makes blogging different from writing in a 23 diary?
The biggest difference is that blogging is much more 24 than a diary. Usually, a teenager treats her diary like a book full of 25 that she does not want to 26 .
It’s interesting that someone who writes in a blog 27 a diary will probably write nearly the same information.
I have a little sister, and sometimes I go online to read her blog. She 28 about things like waking up early for swimming practice and not studying enough for her chemistry test. 29 I was her age, I wrote about the same things, but 30 in my diary. Then, after I had finished writing, I would hide my diary in a secret place because I was 31 that my sister might read it!
The biggest 32 with blogging is that anyone can read what you write. If I were angry with a friend during high school and wrote something 33 about her in my diary, she would never know. 34 , if my sister ever wrote something bad about a friend, that friend 35 read her blog and get angry.
There are also 36 to blogging, of course. If I were feeling sad one day and wrote in my diary, “Nobody cares about me,” 37 would know about it. However if my sister wrote the same sentence in her blog, her best friends would 38 respond（回应）and tell her how much they like her. Blogs help people 39 in contact with their friends and to hear what the people 40 them are doing.

For centuries, the body’s blood has been linked closely with the emotions．People who show no human emotions or feelings, are said to be cold-blooded killer．For example, the police are searching for a cold-blooded killer．He seems to kill for no reason, and no emotion, as if taking someone’s life as nothing．
Cold can affect other parts of the body．The expression “get cold feet” has nothing to do with cold or your feet．The expression means being afraid to do something you have decided to do．For example, you agree to be president of an organization．But then you learn that all the other officers have resigned, and all the work of the organization will be your responsibility．You are likely to get cold feet about being president when you understand the situation.
The expression “give someone the cold shoulder” probably comes from the physical act of turning your back toward someone, instead of speaking to him face to face．You may give a cold shoulder to a friend who has not kept a promise he made to you．Or, to someone who has lied about you to others．
A cold fish is not a fish．It is a person．But it is a person who is unfriendly, unemotional and shows no love or warmth．A cold fish does not offer much of himself to anyone．Someone who is a cold fish could be cold-hearted．Now a cold-hearted person is someone who has no sympathy．Several popular songs in recent years were about cold-hearted men or cold-hearted women who, without feelings, broke the hearts of their lovers．
Out in the cold means not getting something that everybody else got．A person might say that everybody but him got a pay raise---he was left out in the cold．And it is not a pleasant place to be．

|
A．I give him the cold shoulder |
B．I think he is a cold-blooded man |

A．she is a cold-blooded killer |

I was eight years old then. Looking __36__ I remember the time in a baseball field passing the team that we had just __37__ . We shook their hands and said, "Good game!"
It is __38__ to do that when you win! When you lose, you have a tendency(倾向) to slap (拍) the hand — instead of shaking it — and __39__ the ground instead of the eyes. This is not only true for an eight-year-old; it is true for adults, too.
A few years ago, in a softball league, we lost 15 games! And we thought it was __40__ . But during the " Good game" handshake after each __41__, I looked each player in the eyes and shook their hands. I couldn't look my opponents (对手) in the eyes and congratulate them on a good __42__ when I was eight. Somehow I took the loss as a __43__ on my self-worth and felt my self-confidence had been slapped; __44_- I did what most eight-year-olds do and I slapped the opponents' hands, not giving them the satisfaction of a shake. I was wrong to do this. I'm happy today as a(n) __45__ that I have learned this __46__ : There is something to be said for losing well.
__47__ it is a baseball game or an important examination, you can __48__ a lot about a person by now they deal with defeat. The person who deals with defeat as an __49__ blow is not allowing the event to define (定义) him, while someone who cannot __50__ defeat is allowing the event to __51__ his self-worth. In my opinion, when you __52__ in something— though it may be __53__ — look at your opponents in the eyes, and shake their hands in a __54__ way as you say, "Good game!" __55__ to allow the event to define your life. You might find yourself winning the next game.
