2.While Andrew was getting ready for work one Friday morning,he announced to his wife that he had finally decided to ask his boss for a salary raise.All day Andrew felt nervous and anxious as he thought about the upcoming showdown.What if Mr.Larchmont refused to grant his request?Andrew had worked so hard in the last 18 months and landed some great accounts for Braer and Hopkins Advertising Agency.Of course,he deserved a wage increase.
    The thought of walking into Larchmont's office left Andrew weak in the knees.Late in the afternoon he was finally courageous enough to approach his superior.To his delight and surprise,the ever-frugal(一向节俭的)Harvey Larchmont agreed to give Andrew a raise!
    Andrew arrived home that evening-despite breaking all city and state speed limits-to a beautiful table set with their best china,and candles lit.His wife,Tina,had prepared a delicate meal including his favorite dishes.Immediately he figured someone from the office had tipped her off!
    Next to his plate Andrew found a beautiful lettered note.It was from his wife.It read:"Congratulations,my love!I knew you'd get the raise!I prepared this dinner to show just how much I love you.I am so proud of your accomplishments!"He read it and stopped to reflect on how sensitive and caring Tina was.
    After dinner,Andrew was on his way to the kitchen to get dessert when he observed that a second card had slipped out of Tina's pocket onto the floor.He bent forward to pick it up.It read:"Don't worry about not getting the raise!You do deserve one!You are a wonderful provider and I prepared this dinner to show you just how much I love you even though you did not get the increase."
    Suddenly tears swelled in Andrew's eyes.Total acceptance!Tina's support for him was not conditional upon his success at work.
    The fear of rejection is often softened and we can undergo almost any setback or rejection when we know someone loves us regardless of our success or failure.

4.Tips for Cooking on a Tight Schedule
From my experience,there are three main reasons why people don't cook more often:ability,money,and time.(36)BMoney is a topic I'll save for another day.So today I want to give you some wisdom about how to make the most of the time you spend in the kitchen.Here are three tips for great cooking on a tight schedule:
1.Think ahead.The moments when I think cooking is a pain are when I'm already hungry and there's nothing ready to eat.So think ahead of the coming week.When will you have time to cook?Do you have the right materials already?(37)G.
2.Make your time worth it.When you do find time to cook a meal,make the most of it and save yourself time later on.Are you making one loaf of bread?(38)CIt takes around the same amount of time to make more of something.So save yourself the effort for a future meal.
3.(39)AThis may surprise you,but one of the best tools for making cooking worth your time is experimentation.It gives you the chance to hit upon new ideas and recipes that can work well with yor appetite and schedule.The more you learn and the more you try,the more ability you have to take control of your food and your schedule.
Hopefully that gives you a good start.(40)FAnd don't let a busy schedule discourage you from making some great changes in the way you eat and live!

A.Try new things.
B.Ability is easily improved.
C.Make three or four instead.
D.Understand your food better.
E.Cooking is a burden(负担) for many people.
F.Let cooking and living simply be a joy rather than a burden.
G.A little time planning ahead can save a lot of work later on.
1.Heart disease is the most common cause of death in the United States.Over a million people each year will have a heart attack and 25% will die before they get to the hospital or in the Emergency Department.(56)C Prevention is the best way so it does not damage your heart and limit your ability to enjoy life.Simple ways might help reduce your risk:
Don't smoke
This means that you should stop smoking as soon as possible if you already smoke,and if you live with a smoker,you should put limits on the smoker.(57)G
Get moving
(58)EFind a form of exercise you enjoy enough to want to do it regularly and stick to it.If you have health issues that limit exercise,see your doctor for suggestions and make sure you begin with a program that will not be too challenging for you to keep with it.
(59)AMake sure you follow a heart prevention diet,even if you don't have any symptoms (症状) of heart disease.(60)D You should eat a high-fiber,low-fat diet rich in fruits,vegetables and whole grains.Meats should be lean (瘦的),and fats should be limited to heart healthy fats such as olive oil.Sugars and processed foods should be limited,and fruits and vegetables should make up a large part of your daily meals.

A.Eat healthy foods
B.Manage your weight
C.A heart attack is a very frightening event.
D.The key is to prevent the disease before it starts.
E.It's best if you can get in 30minutes a day of exercise.
F.If you feel any of these heart attack symptoms,do not ignore.
G.If you haven't started smoking,be sure never to start this habit.
