Summer is the season to dive into new activities, and kick back and relax. And right now is the time to make sure that you’re ready for the great outdoors, the holiday planning and travel, and the bathing-suit beach days.

If you want to lose weight before summer, concentrate on dropping no more than a pound or two a week. 1. And when you trouble yourself, sooner or later you’re going to gain it back. Operate on a 500-calorie -a -day deficit (亏缺). 2. So if you cut 500 calories a day for seven days straight, you’ll lose a pound a week right there.

Operating at an inadequate (减少量）of 500 calories a day should involve both eating less and moving more: For example, you could consume 300 fewer calories and burn 200 extra per day.

Include both healthy eating and exercise in your weight-loss plan, and break the 500-calorie goal into smaller groups to make it more reachable. 3.

To Cut 100 Calories; 4. Have vegetable pizza instead of pepperoni (意大利辣香肠). Use our Nutritional Needs Calculator to determine how many daily calories you should consume in order to lose, gain, or maintain your healthy goal weight. Once you’ve reached your goal, recalculate your nutritional needs for keeping extra weight off all summer long.

To Sum 100 Calories: Spend 15 minutes biking. 5. Spend 20 minutes gardening. Keep on exercising at least 30 minutes, three days a week. Reading food labels and counting calories or writing down what and when you eat can give you more control, as well.

A. Here are some simple ways to get there.

B. Walk or run one mile.

C. A pound is 3,500 calories.

D. It is okay to have some snacks between your meals.

E. You should always make sure you get a lot of sleep.

The latest Chinese “god song”(an Internet term to describe pop songs that spread virally through the Internet(像病毒一样传播开来) is still making debates(争论) between those who view it as a milestone for Chinese pop music going global and those who regard it as a bad image of China.

Last week, Little Apple, written and performed by the Chopsticks Brothers, won the AMA International Song Award and the duo performed the song at the 2014 American Music Awards in Los Angeles. Another Chinese pop singer, Zhang Jie, won the International Artist Award.

But while fans of these singers are thinking highly of the awards(奖) and the performance by the Chopsticks Brothers at the AMA celebration, there are others who are less excited. They have questioned the value of the awards and what effect it will have on Chinese culture’s “going abroad”, saying it may leave foreign audiences with a poor impression(印象) of Chinese pop music, and even Chinese culture.

The Little Apple phenomenon, both home and abroad, can be more easily understood and judged if we look at it from a business view rather than a cultural view. The professional promoters behind the duo have developed a clear strategy(策略) to promote the duo and their works, not just this particular song. Little Apple was originally released(发行) to promote the duo’s film Old Boys: The Way of the Dragon.

From the very beginning a marketing strategy was used to promote(提升) the song, which immediately went viral on the Internet due to its repetitive rhythm(重复的韵律)，easy-to-remember lyrics(歌词), simple and funny dance and, most importantly, grass roots (草根) nature. The video accumulated(积攒) more than 1 billion bits on China’s major video websites.

Although the song was generally disliked by music professionals who criticized(批评) it as “musical junk food”, Little Apple’s popularity nationally paved the way(为…铺平道路) for promoting the duo internationally.

1.The writer’s attitude to the song of Little Apple is ________.

A. opposed(相反的)B. negative(消极的)

C. objective(客观的)D. critical

2.What do the underlined words “the duo” refer to?

A. Little AppleB. Chopsticks Brother

C. Zhang JieD. American singers

3.We can learn from the passage that ________.

A. Little Apple’s popularity is also a success of marketing strategy

B. Little Apple is generally thought nothing by the AMA

C. Little Apple is really popular with all people in China

D. Little Apple was originally released as a pop play on the Internet

Lost in the Post

How would you feel if the letter you penned carefully and posted to your favorite star ended up in the recycling bin? That's where unopened fan mail sent to singer Taylor Swift was found in Nashville. ___1.___

I understood why these two had so much company when other people complained that no one cared about 8. (they). It was their attitude 9. people. There was no doubt that when the next person came to visit, they were going to hear how I was the “salt of the earth”.

Kids may need to apologize if they do something they know was wrong－like telling a lie or breaking a rule on purpose. When they do something their parents tell them not to do, or they don't do something they are supposed to do, they apologize, too.

Grown-ups can apologize，too，to other grown-ups or even to kids. After all，even grown-ups make mistakes sometimes. By apologizing when they're wrong，grown-ups can set a good example and show kids how to do the right thing and apologize when they need to.

Saying I'm sorry when you need to is the right thing to do. It does a lot of good. But by itself，it might not be enough to make everything all better again. Sometimes along with an apology，a person needs to fix the mistake or promise to do better. Sometimes doing a nice thing for the person after you apologize helps show that you really are sorry and want to be friendly again.

Sometimes a heartfelt "I'm" sorry fixes everything right away. Other times，it might take a while for someone to feel friendly after you apologize. You might need to give the other person some time. Even after you say you're sorry，you might still feel bad about what you said or did－but you can feel good about apologizing and about making up your mind to do better.

When someone apologizes to you，you might not feel like being friendly again right away. Once in a while，if a person doesn't change，you might not want to be friends anymore. You might feel glad that the other person apologized and admitted being wrong. But if someone keeps behaving in mean ways or does something that keeps hurting，you might not feel the same way anymore. Just because someone apologizes to you doesn't mean you have to be friendly again. That part is up to you.
