7．How to Be a Pleasant Person
Each of us would love to be appreciated for the positive emotions that are exhibited around our surroundings．（36）C The following steps will help you to be a pleasant person．
Be modest．Understand that we all are humans．You might be rich or poor，black or white，short or tall etc．But above all we are all humans，which means we are all emotional beings．So treat others the way you would like to be treated．
（37）B Be it offering a seat to an elderly person or throwing the football back to the young child，the inner self-satisfaction you get by doing so is priceless．Once you do so，you will feel good about yourself．
Don't regret．We all are reasonable beings and it is very human to do unreasonable things at times．However，it does not mean that we should regret what we did in the past．Every experience is a learning which teaches you what to do and what not to do in future．（38）D
Forgive and forget．Always living in the past will only make one painful on the inside，which will reflect on the outside．（39）EBy doing so，your heart becomes light．
Be grateful．Thank God and the Universe for yourself，your parents，your friends，your clothes，jobs，food，home etc．and every small thing that makes a difference．（40）F It will make you appreciate life．

A．Encourage others and yourself．
B．Lend a helping hand with a smile．
C．Little do we know that it is not a hard task at all．
D．So be proud that you have learnt a lesson on your own．
E．To have a pleasant emotion around you，it is better to let go．
F．If possible，express your gratefulness for something every day．
G．Throw flowers at others if you wish flowers to be thrown at you．

4．Public Speaking and Critical Thinking
What is critical thinking？To a certain degree，it's a matter of logic（逻辑）-of being able to spot weaknesses in other people's arguments and to avoid them in your own．It also includes related skills such as distinguishing fact from opinion and assessing the soundness of evidence．
In the broad sense，critical thinking is focused，organized thinking-the ability to see clearly the relationships among ideas．（16）DThe greatest thinkers，scientists，and inventors have often taken information that was readily available and put it together differently to produce new ideas．That，too，is critical thinking．
（17）EAs the class goes on，for example，you will probably spend a good deal of time organizing your speeches．While this may seem like a purely mechanical（机械的）exercise，it is closely connected with critical thinking．If the structure of your speech is loose and confused，chances are that your thinking is also disordered and confused．If，on the other hand，the structure is clear，there is a good chance your thinking is too．Organizing a speech is not just a matter of arranging the ideas you already have．（18）A
What is true of organization is true of many aspects of public speaking．（19）F As you work on expressing your ideas in clear，accurate language，you will approve your ability to think clearly and accurately．（20）GAs you learn to listen critically to speeches in class，you will be better able to assess the ideas of speakers in a variety of situations．
If you take full advantage of your speech class，you will be able to develop your skills as a critical thinker in many circumstances．This is one reason public speaking has been regarded as a vital part of education since the days of ancient Greece．

A．Rather，it is an important part of shaping the ideas themselves．
B．This may seem like a lot of time，but the rewards are well worth it．
C．It may also help you to know that there is no such thing as a perfect speech．
D．It has often been said that there are few new ideas in the world，only reorganized ideas．
E．If you are wondering what this has to do with your public speaking class，the answer is quite a lot．
F．The skills you learn in your speech class can help you become a more effective thinker in a number of ways．
G．As you study the role of evidence and reasoning in speech making，you will see how they can be used in other forms of communication as well．

11．Tips to Increase Your Productivity
Want to get more done in your day？Of course you do．（36）GThe good news is that everyone can increase the amount of tasks they accomplish in a day．Here are some tips to help you have a more productive day．
Make a plan for your day．Make sure you know how you want your day to go in advance，even before you start．（37）C To work best，create the next day's plan the night before so that every morning you spend time performing，not planning．
Break large tasks down into bits accomplished easily．Do you have a large project that's just so big that you keep putting it off？Or maybe you're just unsure of where to begin，so you put it off．（38）F Therefore，you will feel a sense of accomplishment as you check the items of your list．
Always set your priorities （优先事项）．（39）EFigure out what must be done，do that first and rank the rest of your work according to importance．If you don't get to the items at the end of your list，it won't be a big problem，and you can do them another time．
（40）BIf you are the most productive in the morning，that's when you should hit it hard and do as much as you can．If you work better in the afternoon，take care of some things like emails in the morning and then accomplish the important projects in the afternoon．Keep on top of your work habits，and you'll be more productive．

A．Reward yourself if you are productive．

C．This can provide you a roadmap for the day．

7．Dave Bruno works as an online marketing manager．Several years ago，one weekend Bruno and his family did a major house cleanup and then donated several bags of unneeded items to the local Goodwill store．"After all were done，I looked around and realized that I still had too much stuff"，says Bruno，"It occurred to me that maybe I wanted to lead a simple life but in reality I behaved differently．"That realization prompted the 39-year-old father of three to try an experiment，"The 100 Thing Challenge"．
With the goal of breaking free of what he calls a"bad habit of consumerism，Bruno was determined to live for one year with just 100personal items．He cut down his possessions to 94items，including a Bible，laptop，guitar，wedding ring，car and clothes．He created some guidelines for the experiment since his wife and daughters did not participate-family-shared and household items did not count as personal items．He also grouped together some basic things such as underwear and socks．Bruno began blogging about his new lifestyle and eventually wrote a book，The 100Thing Challenge：How I Got Rid of Almost Everything，Remade My Life，and Regained My Soul．
Since completing the experiment，Bruno has continued to live by the motto：reduce，refuse，and rearrange and maintains just 110personal things．"Nearly three years of living with a minimal amount of personal possessions，I'm no longer in the habit of consuming for the sake of consumption（消费），"he wrote in his blog last week，"That has freed me up for all sorts of better endeavors than shopping-like spending time with family and writing a book and planning for business opportunities．"
Bruno's project has also inspired others to live minimally，many of whom post their own 100Thing Challenge updates on YouTube．"The reality is that the 100Thing Challenge is surprisingly easy"，says Bruno，"I'm not saying there were no challenges or disappointments．I miss some things，but not that much．Frankly，it's far easier to live with less stuff than with excessive trash．"
