Thanks for your letter. I’m glad to know that you are getting along well on your classmates.

Well, I agree that it’s difficulty to choose our future occupations as there are lots of different jobs. However, I would like not follow in my parents’ footsteps because I’m not interested in his professions. I’ve asked my father for advices. He suggested I chose my career according to my preferences.

As for me, I enjoy travel around and I want to see the world. Perhaps I’d rather work as a guide in tourism. Therefore, I haven’t made the final choice yet. I like playing the football too.

Some people turn their hobbies into their careers. Have you any hobbies? Drop myself a line when you can.

It rained very hardly last summer and the little stream near our house became big river. It burst through the bank. The fields all round was soon full of water. Luckily, the water didn’t reach any of the house in our village. But the bursting water from the river carried away our wooden bridge, that was over three hundred of years old. We were very sorry to lose the oldest thing we have had for such a long time. We will build a new bridge, so it will not be so familiar than one we had before!

What makes a person a giver or a taker? The idea of “give versus take” takes shape in all relationships of our lives. We're either giving advice, making time for people, or we're on the receiving end. We alternate between the two based on different situations we face on a daily basis, it not an hourly one.

According to Adam Grant, a professor at Pennsylvania University, most people are matchers. They make careful observations on takers and make it a point for them to pay something back. They hate to see people who act so generously towards others without receiving any reward. Actually, most matchers will try to promote and support givers so that they can get the good they deserve.

Another professor named Hannah Rile Bowles, from Harvard University, led a study on the idea. She asked 200 senior managers to sit down in pairs where one person would act as the boss and the other as an employee to negotiate salary promotions. Male employees asked for an average salary of $146 k while the females asked for only $141 k. But why did they not bargain as hard as the men? Simply because they were more likely to be givers.

As a woman, I do enjoy the act of giving up my time, my knowledge and my care and attention to others. I don't expect anything in return, but I do tend to pull myself away when I feel like I'm being taken for granted. I also tend to get upset when I see a loved one's continuous actions of kindness go unnoticed. So it's safe to say I'm 50% giver,35% matcher and 15% taker.

I do know someone, however, who is 99% giver. They’re devoting their time, sharing valuable insights and going out of their way for everyone who crosses their path. Although they've changed the lives of many people, they rarely see any of it returned. But the universe is slowly repaying them; they’re now extremely successful, well known for what they do.

1.In Adam Grant’s opinion, most people .

A. prefer giving to taking

B. prefer taking to giving

C. tend to depend on others

D. tend to balance between giving and taking

2.What does the underlined part in Paragraph 4 most probably mean?

A. Cheer myself up. B. Give up on myself.

C. Stay away deliberately. D. Force myself to move forward.

3.What can be inferred from the last paragraph?

A. No good deed goes undone.

B. People who give are worth respecting.

C. Giving is the shortest path to success.

D. Sharing is the greatest human quality.

Flaubert had it that "one way of tolerating existence is to lose oneself in literature as in an unending party". It turns out that reading doesn't only help us to tolerate existence, but actually lengthens it.

A recent study by Yale University researchers, published online in the journal Social Science & Medicine, concluded that "book readers experienced a 20 percent reduction in the risk of death over the 12 years of follow-up compared to non-book readers."

The data was obtained from the study sponsored by the National Institute on Aging. The study looked at 3,635 subjects, all older than 50, whom the researchers divided into three groups: those who didn't read books, those who read up to 3.5 hours a week and those who read more than 3.5 hours a week.

The findings were remarkable: on average, book readers survived almost two years longer than those who didn't crack open a book. The more the subjects read, the longer they lived, but that as little as 30 minutes a day was still beneficial in terms of survival.

Accounting for factors such as education level, income and health status, the study found that those who read more than 3.5 hours weekly were 23 percent less likely to die during that 12-year period. Those who read up to 3.5 hours—an average of a half-hour a day—were 17 percent less likely.

In other words, just like a healthy diet and exercise, books appear to promote a "significant survival advantage," the authors concluded.

Why or how that's the case remains unclear; the research showed only an association between book reading and longevity, not a causal relationship. But the findings are not so surprising. Other recent research showed that reading novels appears to increase both brain connectivity and sympathy.

1.Why does the author mention Flaubert's words in the first paragraph?

A. To stress the value of reading.

B. To compare reading with party.

C. To introduce the study on reading.

D. To support the findings of the study.

2.From the text, what can we learn about the study?

A. No similar study on reading has been carried out.

B. The process of the study lasted more than ten years.

C. It shows readers live two years longer than non-readers.

D. It shows time spent on reading increases one's love for it.

3.What does the underlined words "that's the case" probably mean?

A. Reading books enables people to live longer.

B. Reading is similar to a healthy diet and exercise.

C. Reading books is closely associated with longevity.

D. Reading increases brain connectivity and sympathy.

4.Where can we most probably read this text?

A. https://www.theguardian.com/life-and-style/family.

B. https://www.barnesandnoble.com/b/books/coming-soon.

C. https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/to-your-health.

D. http://www.thebookbag.co.uk/Book_Recommendations.

Where do you think the world's happiest people live? Somewhere hot with sandy beaches?A country with a tradition of the fine food and culture? Not according to a recent study by the University of Leicester.Who are the happiest people on Earth?1.Surprised? Well you'll be more surprised when you hear that the Danes pay some of the highest taxes in the world.So what is the secret of their success?

Let's start with all that tax they pay.The Danish government provides its people with one of the finest education and health systems in the world.It spends more on children and elderly people per capita（人均）than any other country.

2.Thanks to the tax policy,a shop assistant's final salary is not that much less than someone who works in a bank.As a result,Danes don't choose their careers based on money or status as people in other countries do.They choose the job they want to do.There's a philosophy in Denmark known as "Jante-lov",which translates as "you're no better than anybody else."3.But workers in other countries are not used to looking at life in this way.

Money doesn't seem as important in Denmark.It has been called a “post consumerist” society.4.What is more important is the sense of society and it's no surprise that Danes are very used to socializing.92% of Danes belong to some kind of social club and these clubs are even paid for by the government.

5.They also show an amazing amount of trust in each other and their government.You can see signs of this all over the country.You'll find vegetable stalls with no assistant.You take what you want and leave the money in a basket.Perhaps the bike is a good symbol for Denmark.The Danes can afford cars but they choose bikes-simple, economical,non-polluting machines that show no status and help keep people fit.

A.In a list ranking countries by the happiness of their citizens,it put tropical Fiji 50 places below freezing Iceland.

B.The street sweeper can hold his head up high as he proudly does his job.

C.Danish people aren't as suspicious as many other nations.

D.High taxes in Denmark widen the gap between different jobs.

E.Those 5.5 million people who call Denmark their home.

F.People have nice things in their houses,but they don't attach too much importance to shopping and spending.

G And there's another advantage to those high taxes.

Every year, TIME selects the best inventions that are making the world better, smarter and — in some cases—a little more fun. Here’s which ones made this year’s unranked list.

●Morpher

People refuse to wear a helmet because they’re thick and bulky. Morpher, a bike helmet made from interweaved plastics that is just as strong as its traditional helmets, but flexible enough to fold almost totally flat, making it easier to transport. Morpher has raised almost $300,000 on Indiegogo and may be available for sale in stores in future.

● Hyper Adapt

Almost everyone who sees the movie Back to the Future wants a pair of self-lacing shoes. Now, thanks to Nike, the shoe dream is a reality. When wearers press a button near the tongue, the Hyper Adapt 1.0s automatically tighten and loosen around their foot. Simplified shoe fastening could give users an edge during sports competition, and it’s especially useful for people with impaired（受损的） motor function.

●Hello Sense

It's hard to believe that an alarm clock could not only be beautiful but also improve your sleep. That it could monitor the temperature, humidity(湿度), light and even air quality in your bedroom to help you engineer a perfect sleep environment. That it could monitor your sleep cycles and wake you when you’re least likely to feel groggy—all thanks to simple voice commands.

●Eatwell Assistive Tableware
