3．Five Ways to Build Self-Confidence
Walk Faster．
One of the easiest ways to tell how a person feels about herself is to examine her walk．People with confidence walk quickly．They have places to go，people to see，or important work to do．Even if you aren't in a hurry，you can increase your self-confidence by putting some energy in your step．（36）B．
（37）F
One of the best ways to build confidence is listening to an inspiring speech．Unluckily，chances to listen to a great speaker are few．You can fill this need by creating a personal speech．Write a 30～60-second speech that focuses on your strengths and goals then recite it aloud whenever you need a confidence push．
Sit in the Front Row．
In school，offices and some other public places people always sit at the back of the room，（38）A This is for lack of self-confidence．By deciding to sit in the front row，you can get over this meaningless fear and build your self-confidence．
Speak up．
During group discussions many people never express their opinions because they're afraid that people will judge them for their saying something stupid．（39）GBy making an effort to express your opinions at least once in every group discussion，you'll become a better public speaker，more confident in your own thoughts．
Along the same lines as personal appearance，physical fitness has huge effect on self-confidence．（40）DBy making your body fit and strong，you improve your physical appearance，refresh yourself，and learn something positive．
A．Most people prefer that because they're afraid of being noticed．
B．Walking 25% faster will make you look and feel more important．
C．In fact most people feel good after a walk．
D．If you're out of shape，you'll feel unattractive and less energetic．
E．Listen to an Inspiring Speech．
F．Create a Personal Speech．
G．In fact most people are dealing with the same fear．
4．I was going to Paris，which I'd always wanted to see．But now I was frightened to travel alone．I arrived at the train station in Paris．I hadn't spoken my college French for twenty years．On my first metro ride，I came across an incompetent（不胜任的）thief．I just stared at him，and he stopped his hand from my purse and disappeared into the crowd．Somewhere in this confusing city was my hotel hidden，but the directions suddenly weren't easy to find．When I finally found the hotel，my heart was beating heavily，and I was sweating like a basketball player．I couldn't stay．Could I？The wallpaper looked like it had been through a fire．The bathroom was downstairs，and the window looked out onto the brick wall of another building．Welcome to Paris．I sincerely wanted to die．I missed my friends．I was entering my third week away from home and my kids，and I had arrived in the most romantic city in the world，alone，lonely and frightened．
The most important thing I did in Paris happened at that moment．I knew that if I didn't go out，right then，and find a place to have dinner，I would hide in this small room my entire time in Paris．I might never learn to enjoy the world as a single individual．So I went out．Evening in Paris was light and pleasant．I walked along a path，listening to birds sing，watching children float toy boats in a huge fountain．No one seemed to be in a hurry．Paris was beautiful．And I was here alone and suddenly not lonely．My sense of accomplishment overcoming my fear and weakness had left me feeling free．I wore out two pairs of shoes during my week's stay in Paris．I did everything there was to do，and it was the greatest week of my European vacation．I returned home，becoming a believer in the power of traveling alone．Now when I meet difficulties I just say to myself，"If I can go to Paris，I can go anywhere．"

14．Chen Suqin，lecturer of Sun Yat-sen University，said many scientists in the USA and Europe study medicine and biology using Harry Potter as case and that's ______ she got the idea for her course named"Harry Potter and genetics"．（　　）

4．Thousands of people living in the Chinese capital will celebrate the start of the Chinese New year by heading for the ski resorts （滑雪场）．Never mind that Beijing's dry weather seldom produces snow．It is cold enough in winter for snow-making machines to make a covering for the hills north to the capital．And the rapid growth of a pleasure-seeking middle class has formed the basis for this new craze（热潮）．
  Since Beijing's first ski resort was opened ten years ago，the sport has enjoyed astonishing increase．There are now more than a dozen resorts．Clothes markets in the city have added bright colored ski suits to their winter collections．Mr．Wei，a manager of a newly-opened ski resort in Beijing，sees the growth of an industry that could soon lead Chinese to head for the ski resorts of Europe，In recent years ski resorts offering natural snow have opened in China．But many are in faraway areas of the country and can't really match the equipment and services of some ski resorts in Europe．
  Beijing's skiing craze is partly a result of the recent increase in private （私有的） cars．This has led to the growth of a Ieisure industry  in the capital's suburbs （郊区），which until the late-1990s were unreachable to ordinary people，According to Mr．Wei，about 40% of the visitors to his resort come in their own cars．The rest are bused in by schools，businesses or government Offices．
  The problem is making money．Starting ski resorts requires quite a lot of money； hiring land from the local government，preparing the hills，buying snow machines，making sure there are enough water and electricity to run them，and buying ski equipment for hiring out to customers．
 The ski resort where Mr．Wei works cost nearly $4m to set up．And as so often in China when someone comes up with a good idea，many others hash in and price wars break out．Beijing now offers some of the cheapest ski training classes in the world，though with most people rather new to the sport，expecting a few more doing the same job．

A．Convenience for skiers brought about by private cars．
B．Skiing as a new way of enjoying one's spare time．
C．Things to be considered when starting a ski resort．
D．A sudden increase of ski training classes in Beijing．
