“When we feel love and kindness toward others, it not only makes others feel loved and cared for, but it helps us also to develop inner happiness and peace.”

As we live through life, we tend to get caught up in our individual world, our problems — our life. When we our world to include others in a meaningful way, by making a difference in their life, we increase our experience at the same time.

Think back on a time when someone made a difference in your life.

Here is one of mine: I was going to college, working part-time, and just getting by financially. Standing in line at a local supermarket, I a woman in the same line, thinking that she was not very attractive. As I was , I discovered that I did not have enough money to pay; without , that same woman I had been judging offered to the difference. It wasn’t , but what that person did made a lasting impression on me. She was a beautiful, caring soul who was willing to help a stranger in a(an) situation. That happened over forty years ago and I remember it as as if it was yesterday.

Other examples are the numerous times I have had people smile at me, which my day. I've often wondered if it was because I was smiling, which I to do all the time, or because they were smiling to be , which encouraged me to smile as well. It has probably been some of both. In case, that simple gesture (a smile) makes a difference in my day.

There are ways to make a significant difference in another's life. The question is: Are we doing it? It does not anything, but it does require some effort on our part. I have found that as I do this consistently, the go far beyond the energy required to do the deed. Looking for ways to brighten another person's day raises our vibration(共鸣),and when we act on it, we the other person to raise their vibration as well — it is to each other.

Make a difference in someone's life today, and doing so every day. Today is a perfect time to start! If you are already doing so. bravo!

根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。

If you're looking for a challenging situation to practice your English, pick up the phone. Not being able to see the other person and the body language can make the chatting difficult. 1. Here are some tips to guide you through an average phone conversation in English.

1．Greetings

Every phone call should begin with a polite greeting such as “Hi, how've you been?” or “Nice to hear from you”. Even if you're calling a business contact for a specific purpose, it'd be rude to jump right into business. 2.Getting to the point

There always comes the point where you want to move on from friendly chatting and get down to business. What should you do in this situation? 3. However, if you are waiting to find out why someone called you, you can guide the conversation by saying “So what can I do for you?”

3．Interrupting without offence

Sometimes you may happen to be speaking with a very talkative person. 4. Keep in mind when you'd like to interrupt, and be sure to do it politely. For example, begin with “I'd like to say something here”．

4．Closing the call

This can be the trickiest part of the conversation! It may be the time to offer good wishes if it's appropriate. 5. Sometimes it's easiest to just say you enjoyed speaking to the other person. Also remember cleverly saying the word well at the beginning of a sentence can indicate you're ready to end the conversation.

A．Use the phrase “I'm just calling to...” to change to the topic at hand.

B．Additionally, you may want to confirm any plans you've made.

C．You should make a little small talk at the beginning.

D．You'd better greet him or her in a friendly way.

E．So it may be difficult to get a word in.

F．Practice English through phone calls.

G．Never fear, though!

According to the national population survey concluded recently, Florida is home to the largest population of people aged 65 and older, and this group ______ over 17 percent of the state’s population.

A. takes up B. holds up

C. makes up D. keeps up

D

Older couples in a bad marriage -- particularly female spouses -- have a higher risk for heart

disease than those in a good marriage， finds the first nationally representative study of its kind．The findings suggest the need for marriage counseling（咨询） and programs aimed at promoting marital quality and well-being for couples into their 70s and 80s， said lead investigator Hui Liu， a Michigan State University sociologist．

"Marriage counseling is focused largely on younger couples，" said Liu． "But these results show that marital quality is just as important at older ages， even when the couple has been married 40 0r 50 years． "

The study， funded by the National Institute of Aging， an arm of the National Institutes of Health，is published online in the Journal of Health and Social Behavior．

Liu analyzed five years of data from about 1，200 married men and women who participated the National Social Life， Health and Aging Project． Respondents were aged 57-85 at the beginning of the study．

The project included survey questions about marital quality， lab tests and self-reported measures of cardiovascular health such as heart attacks， strokes， hypertension and high levels of C-reactive protein in the blood．

Liu set out to learn how marital quality is related to risk of heart disease over time， and whether this relationship varies by gender and/or age． Among her findings： Negative martial quality（eg．spouse criticizes， spouse is demanding） has a bigger effect on heart health than positive marital quality．In other words， a bad marriage is more harmful to your heart health than a good marriage．The effect of marital quality on cardiovascular risk becomes much stronger at older ages．Meanwhile，marital quality has a bigger effect on women's heart health than it does on men's， possibly because women tend to internalize（使藏在心底） negative feelings and thus are more likely to feel depressed and develop cardiovascular problems． Heart disease leads to a decline in marital quality for women， but not for men． It's common that wives are more likely to provide support and care to sick husbands， while husbands are less likely to take care of sick wives．"In this way， a wife's poor health may affect how she assesses her marital quality， but a husband's poor health doesn't hurt his

view of marriage，"Liu said．

1.The study suggests that ．

A．elderly couples are less likely to be affected by marital quality

B．the effect of marital quality on male and female is the same

C．bad martial quality affects heart health more greatly

D．marital quality has a positive effect on health

2.We can infer from the the last paragraph that Liu agrees that ．

A．marital quality has nothing to do with cardiovascular health

B．gender or age may affect one's marriage quality

C．marriage counseling is unnecessary for young couples

D．husbands will not take care of their sick wives

3.Why does marital quality have a bigger effect on women？

A．Because women are weak physically．

B．Because women have to take care of their sick husband．

C．Because women tend to keep their negative feelings to themselves．

D．Because women expect too much oftheir marriage．

4.According to the passage， who is most likefy to have a heart disease？

A．Marie， 40 years old，just got divorced．

B．Bill， 66 years old， lives with his wife and grandchildren．

C．Justin， 28 years old， got married recently．

D．Sophia， 59 years old， often quarrels with her husband．
