15.Investing in yourself
Figuring out how to invest your money can be a difficult task.This is something that you will want to learn how to do.
(36)F Things that will improve your knowledge,skills or health are all great investments.However,before you start,you need to be clear about what you will gain out of doing all of these things.You may think investing in yourself means investing in your education.(37)A.There are some other things you can do as well as buying a gym membership or learning a new skill.
So what are some specific things you can do?(38)C.Reading books can really expand your mind and allow you to learn different skills and gain knowledge.I'm talking about the books where you will actually learn a new skill,not fiction books.
You can also take courses and attend seminars.These programs are taught by people with a high level of knowledge or skill.(39)E.Only in this way can you avoid being fooled by some sales presentation.
Moreover,investing in yourself is a safe way to keep your money.Although a savings account is seen as the most secure investment,that isn't 100% safe.Even if you never experience your bank closing down,the return is little when inflation(通货膨胀) is taken into consideration.(40)G.But over time,they will show up in terms of your happiness level as well as your level of success.

A.This is just one way.
B.The benefits will stay with you.
C.If you aren't a reader,you should start with that.
D.The more you do this,the more valuable you will be.
E.Of course,you need to do some research before investing.
F.The best way to invest your money is to invest it in yourself.
G.When you invest in yourself,you may not see gains right away.
2.YOU may like chewing gum (口香糖) after meals to stop your breath smelling bad; or your mother might use a special neutralizer (调理剂) to protect her permed hair (烫发).But have you thought about the chemical principles behind such everyday actions?
On March 2,the Senio 3students from the IB (International Baccalaureate,国际文凭) classes at Beijing Huijia Private School presented their discoveries,all in fluent English.This kind of seminar is held every year to show the achievements of the IB chemistry experiment lessons offered by the school.IB is a qualification based on a common curriculum (课程) for students aged 16-18in any country and is recognized by universities everywhere.
"Once I saw an advertisement for xylitol (木糖醇) gum,"recalled Zhang Xinju."Suddenly an idea came to my mind:are there any chemical reactions when the xylitol is working on our teeth?"
Zhang and his partner Bu Xuan visited several hospitals to try and find out."Doctors know that xylitol can protect teeth,but few could explain how the chemical reactions happen,"said the 17-year-old boy.
Presenting the results of their research in English to an audience of Chinese and foreign judges was never a problem for the students.
"Textbooks for IB students are in English,and our teachers speak in English,"explained Wei Duan and Han Yu,whose research topic was"The Acid-Base Reaction (酸碱反应) in the process of Hair-Perming".
"In Senior 1we often referred to Chinese textbooks,but we found we could understand and express it all in English by the second year."
Lu Jiang,the school's IB chemistry teacher and China's only IB vice-examiner,is proud that her students can apply scientific theories they learn in class to daily life.
"You might have learned these facts from you kindergarten teachers,but few think about the theories behind them,"Lu said."This kind of practice is intended to dvelop the scientific thinking they will need in their future studies."
