Like human beings，dogs may catch cold because of cold weather，wet conditions or can also get it from other sick dogs．If a dog has a running nose and watery eyes，coughs or sneezes(打喷嚏），then it is quite probable that the dog has caught cold．

A dog's cold can get over after a few days without treatment but it totally depends upon the owner to treat it with medications or improve its immune power （免疫力） to get rid of the cold naturally．Following are some of the things you can do if your dog gets a cold．

You can improve its immune power by giving it proper nutrient diet．Healthy food can really do wonders．Try to give it food which is either suggested by the vet（兽医）or is healthy for your pet．Increase the intake of food which is rich in vitamins A，C and E．

Keep your dog warm．The best place for your dog in winter is inside your house．Do not keep your dog outside when it is cold and wet．At home you can also keep the dog warm with the help of carpets．This will make him comfortable and help him to recover fast．

Increase the fluid（流质）intake as it helps a lot．Water can be the best choice but you can also add broth （肉汤）in water which will give your dog strength．Warm water will make your dog more comfortable and will also keep the dog away from the respiratory infections（呼吸道感染）．

Steam treatment is considered to be effective in getting rid of cold．It makes the nasal（鼻的） passage (通道)wet，which helps proper breathing．Just fill your bathroom with steam and leave your dog inside the bathroom for 15 minutes．Do it nearly 2 to 3 times a day and you will see your dog recovering．

These are some of the things you can do to help your dog recover from cold．However，if you are not able to find any improvement in its health，then turn to the vet for help immediately．Take your dog for regular checkups so as to avoid complications（并发症）．

On August18,2012,the White House staff prepared for a special group of guests. The First Lady was hosting an important lunch.

At 10 o’clock, her guests arrived. Fifty-four children, each with a parent or grandparent, walked into the White House. The lucky guests were the winners of the Healthy Lunchtime Challenge. It was a contest created by the First Lady a few months ago. She asked kids ages 8 to 12 to think up healthy, delicious lunch recipes. Winners from across the country, one from every state, were brought to Washington D.C, for the “state dinner”.

At the start of the meal, the First Lady welcomed her guests and congratulated them on winning the contest. “You were the winner in your state---the whole state,” she said. “You guys won! Cool!” She also explained what made the recipes win. “You came up with dishes that are good for you, but more importantly, they taste good, too,” she said.

Just before the dessert time, Michelle stood up to make an announcement. “We have a special guest who wanted to stop by and say hello,” she explained. “So it’s my honor to introduce the President of the United States.”

The President walked to each table, shaking hands with the winners and their family members. For the kids, this was the icing on the cake.” It was amazing to watch the President,” Kayla, one winner said. “His visit was a surprise and that ‘s a really big meal.”

1._______ guests took part in the important lunch.

A. 54 B. 108 C. 45 D. 90

2.How many winners were there in each state?

A. One B. Two C. Three D. Four

A. Being big and healthy

B. Being cheap and delicious

C. Being healthy and delicious

D. Being expensive and healthy.

4.The underlined phrase probably means ______ in Chinese.

A. 作茧自缚 B. 走马观花

My students often tell me that they don't have "enough time" to do all their schoolwork.

My reply is often a brief "You have as much time as the president." I usually carry on a bit about there being twenty-four hours in the day for everyone, and suggest that "not enough time" is not an acceptable explanation of not getting something done.

Once in graduate school, I tried to prove to one of my professors by saying that I was working hard. His answer to me was, "That's irrelevant (无关的). What's important is the quality of your work." Since then I have had time to think carefully about the "hard worker" dodge (诀窍), and I have come to some conclusions- all relevant to the problem of how much time we have.

If you analyze the matter, you can identify two parts of the problem: There is, of course, the matter of "time", which we can think of as fixed. Then there is the problem of "work" during that time. But, as my professor suggested, it's not how hard one works but the quality of the product that's important.

That led me to a new idea: the quality of the work. That concept is perhaps best explained by a sign I once saw on the wall in someone's office: "Don't work harder. Work smarter." There is a lot of sense in that idea.

If you can't get more time, and few of us can, the only solution is to improve the quality of the work. That means thinking of ways to get more out of the same time than we might otherwise get. That should lead us to an analysis of our work habits. Since "work" for students usually means "homework", the expression "work habits" should be read as "study habits".

Then, as a smart student, you will seek to improve those skills that you use in study, chiefly reading and writing. If you learn to read better and write better, there are big benefits that pay off in all your studies.

My friend Jim was a well-known radio host, who worked at a radio station all his life. All his colleagues knew him about one characteristic: If he’s on-air, he is always wearing a suit and a tie. They laughed at him, saying, “No one ever sees you. Why do you dress like that?” But he always turned that into a joke.

One day Jim was invited to appear on the TV. There was a show for the oldest radio employees. For the first time his fans, who only knew Jim by his voice, would see him. Before the recording of the show, the director came to Jim and asked, “Usually you arrive on time, but today you are 10 minutes late. It’s not terrible, but I still want to know why.”

“You see,” Jim answered, “at the last moment when I was already dressed up, I noticed that I didn't have new socks. For the first time I was invited to the television, and I thought that simply wearing clean socks was not enough. So I needed to go to the store for new socks.”

The director was surprised. He asked, “Why do you need new socks? You could have come without the socks because we will be filming you only over the waist.”

“ You see, to be perfect, I need to feel myself perfect in everything, starting with the shirt and finishing with the pen in my pocket,” Jim said. “And if my socks have holes in them or my shoes are dirty, I’m not spotless anymore. And it may make me less confident.”
