1. I thought I might be the only person left in the world who hadn't done an eBay deal. So, I decided to try my hand at online auction(拍卖).

Buying for beginners: Sign up on www. ebay. co. uk. Most items (e. g. tables, computers, and books)ready for auction will come with a picture and a short description; others may be marked with "Buy It Now" and have a fixed price. 2.

If the item is being auctioned, you offer the highest price you are prepared to pay and eBay bids(出价)for you. The bid will be increased little by little until it goes beyond your highest bid, then you are emailed and asked if you would like to bid again. Auctions last up to 10-days and when they finish you get an email

telling you whether you have won the item.

3._: Sellers decide how they would like to be paid and you need to check this before placing a bid as you might not want to post a cheque or postal orders. The easiest way is through PayPal, an online payment system that takes the money away from your credit card.

Selling made simple: If you plan to sell on eBay, it helps to include a picture of the item. 1 followed my friends' advice and put up the items I wanted to sell for a 10-day auction, starting on a Thursday. 4.

The big things in life: It's easy to post a small item, but furniture is a big part of eBay and this has to be collected or sent by deliverymen. 5._

A. How to pay.

B. Pay exact money before buying.

C. You can buy these right away.

D. Make sure the item you want to buy.

E. Everyone's at it, even my neighbors.

F. Check the ways of delivery before you bid.

G. This way buyers had two weekends to bid.

Last year,researchers from the University of Michigan reported that empathy,the ability to understand other people,among college students had dropped sharply over the past 10 years. That could be because so many people have replaced face time with screen time,the researchers said.

1. Jennifer Freed,a co-director of a teen program,has another explanation. Turn on the TV,and you're showered with news and reality shows full of people fighting,competing,and generally treating one another with no respect. 2.

There are good reasons not to follow those bad examples.Humans are socially related by nature. Having relationships with other people is an important part of being human — and having empathy is decisive to those relationships. Research ers have also found that empathetic teenagers are more likely to have high self-respect. 3.

Empathy is also an indication of a good leader.In fact,Freed says,many top companies report that empathy is one of the most important things they look for in new managers. 4. “Academics are important.But if you don't have emotional (情感的) intelligence,you won't be as successful in work or in your love life,” she says.

What's the best way to up your EQ (情商)? For starters,let down your guard and really listen to others. 5.

To really develop empathy,you'd better volunteer at a nursing home or a hospital,join a club or a team that has a diverse membership,have a “sharing circle” with your family,or spend time caring for pets at an animal shelter.

A. Today,people spend more time alone and are less likely to join groups and clubs.

B. “One doesn't develo p empathy by having a lot of opinions and doing a lot of talking,” Freed

says.

C. Humans learn by example and most of the examples on it are anything but empathetic.

D. Empathy is a matter of learning how to understand someone else — both what they think and

how they feel.

E. Good social skills, including empathy, are a kind of “emotional intelligence” that will help

you succeed in many areas of life.

F. Besides,empathy can be a cure for loneliness,sadness,anxiety,and fear.

G. Everyone is different,and levels of empathy differ from person to person.

One day a mime(哑剧演员) is visiting the zoo and tries to earn some money as a street performer. As soon as he starts to draw a crowd, a zookeeper pulls him into his office. The zookeeper explains that the zoo’s most popular attraction, a gorilla(大猩猩), has died suddenly and the keeper fears that attendance(出席人数) at the zoo will fall off. He offers the mime a job to dress up as the gorilla. The mime accepts.

The next morning the mime puts on the gorilla suit and enters the cage before the crowd comes. He soon discovers he can sleep, play and make fun of people and he draws bigger crowds than he ever did as a mime — the job he likes but loses.

However, with days going by, he begins to notice that the people are paying more attention to the lion in the cage next to his. Not wanting to lose the attention of his audience, he climbs to the top of his cage, crawls across a partition(隔墙), and dangles(悬挂) from the top to the lion’s cage. The lion gets angry at this. The scene is a fuel to the crowd.

At the end of the day he is given a raise for being such a good attraction — well, this continues for some time. The crowds grow larger, and the mime’s pay keeps going up.

Then one day when he is dangling over the lion he slides and falls. The mime is terrified. He starts screaming “Help me!”, but the lion is quick. The mime soon finds himself flat on his back looking up at the angry lion and the lion says, “Shut up you fool! Do you want to get us both fired?”

A. he has been out of work

B. he doesn’t like being a mime

C. he likes performing at the zoo

D. he is offered a higher pay there

2.How does the mime find the job dressing up as the gorilla?
