Arrive early. 2. Then use this time for yourself: reading, writing, relaxation, thinking, whatever.

Buy tickets in advance. Sports, theater, concerts, or any other event you would enjoy. Schedule the plans with a friend later. 3.

Evenings with yourself. 4. If others ask you to do things those nights, just tell them you have plans. Use the time for gardening, reading, exercise, or doing nothing!

For a lot of parents, sending their kids off to college is a bittersweet experience. I think a lot of teenagers head to college without any idea about how money works. Don’t let that happen to your college kid. Help them understand these issues before they step into that first class.

·Budget, budget, budget. 1. So start by making sure you understand budgeting and have begun to use it as part of your financial plan.

·Independence means responsibility. Living away from home means you have to take care of yourself. 2. Food doesn’t just drop out of the sky, and gas doesn’t magically appear in their car. Independence means responsibility.

· 3. Even if your kid is going to a small community college, they’ll still probably have a few thousand dollars of tuition to pay. If you break it down, one class can cost $1,000 at the very minimum! And that doesn’t even include books.

·Choose a major wisely. 4. This isn’t a must before they step on campus, but simply plant a seed that gets them started thinking about what they want to do with their life. You don’t want them graduating with a degree that leaves them unfulfilled or unable to find a job.

·Friends matter. 5. Who you hang out with definitely influences how you spend money and the decisions you make. Without being overbearing, remind them how important it is to have positive friends who build them up instead of bringing them down.

Remember, as a parent, just be there for support and to strengthen these principles throughout their college experience.

A. College isn’t cheap.

B. Cherish your opportunity.

C. Help your teenager find his or her passion.

D. However, not all friends can be really depended on.

E. New friends mean new opportunities and social situations.

F. Do your best to prepare your son or daughter for what that means.

Whenever we turn on the TV or radio, read the newspapers, surf the Internet, we'll be surrounded by the word "diet" everywhere. We have so easily been attracted by the promise of diet products that we have stopped thinking about what diet products are doing to us. We are paying for products that harm us psychologically（心理上地）and physically.

It's obvious that diet products weaken us psychologically. They allow us to jump over the thinking stage that our weight problems lie not in actually losing the weight, but in controlling the consumption of fat. All we have to do is to swallow or recognize the word "diet" in food labels.

What's more, diet products have greater psychological effects. Every time we have a zero-calorie drink, we are telling ourselves that we don't have to work to get results．Diet products make people believe that gain comes without pain, and that life can be without resistance and struggle.

As a matter of fact, the danger that diet products bring not only lies in the psychological effects they have on us, but also in the physical harm they cause. Diet foods and diet pills contain zero calorie. oaly because the diet industry has created chemicals to produce these wonder products, And they can indirectly harm our bodies because consuming them instead of healthy foods means we are stopping our bodies having basic nutrients. Diet products may not be nutritional, and the chemicals that go into diet products are potentially dangerous.

Losing weight lies in the power of minds, not in the power of chemicals. Think twice before buying diet products. Once we realize this, we will be much better able to resist diet products, 3rd therefore, prevent the psychological and physical harm that comes from using them.

1.From Paragraph 1，we learn that

A. diet products are in our daily life

B. people have trouble choosfng diet products

C. people should put up with diet products

D. diet products are misleading people

2.The psychological effect of diet products is that people tend to

A. hesitate before they enjoy diet foods

B. pay attention to their daily diet

C. watch their weight rather than their diet

D. try out varieties of diet foods

3.The underlined part in Paragraph 3 probably means

A. diet products cause no pain

B. it costs a lot to.lose weight

C. losing weight is effortless

D. diet products are free of fat and calories

4.Diet products indirectly harm people physically because such products

A. are over-consumed B. are short of basic nutrients

C. lack chemicals D. provide too much energy

Recordings of angry bees are enough to send big, tough African elephants running away, a new study says. Beehives (蜂窝)—either recorded or real—may even prevent elephants from damaging farmer’s crops.

In 2002, scientist Lucy King and her team found that elephants avoid certain trees with bees living in them. Today, Lucy wants to see if African honeybees might discourage elephants from eating crops. But before she asked farmer to go to the trouble of setting up beehives on their farms, she needed to find out if the bees would scare elephants away.

Lucy found a wild beehive inside a tree in northern Kenya and set up a recorder. Then she threw a stone into the beehive, which burst into life. Lucy and her assistant hid in their car until the angry bees had calmed down. Next，Lucy searched out elephant families in Samburu National Reserve in northern Kenya and put a speaker in a tree close to each family.

From a distance, Lucy switched on the pre-recorded sound of angry bees while at the same time recording the elephants with a video camera. Half the elephant groups left the area within ten seconds. Out of a total of 17 groups, only one group ignored the sound of the angry bees. Lucy reported that all the young elephants immediately ran to their mothers to hide under them. When Lucy played the sound of a waterfall (瀑布) instead of the angry bees to many of the same elephant families, the animals were undisturbed. Even after four minutes, most of the groups stayed in one place.

Lucy is now studying whether the elephants will continue to avoid the sound of angry bees after hearing it several times. She hasn’t tested enough groups yet to know, but her initial (最初的) results were promising enough to begin trials with farmers. She has now begun placing speakers in the fields to see if elephants are frightened away.

1.We know from the passage that elephants may be frightened of .

A. loud noises B. some crops

C. video cameras D. angry bees

2.As mentioned in the passage, Lucy .

A. works by herself in Africa

B. needs to test more elephant groups

C. has stopped elephants eating crops

D. has got farmers to set up beehives on their farms

3.Why did Lucy throw a stone into a wild beehive?

A. To record the sound of bees.

B. To make a video of elephants.

C. To see if elephants would run away.

D. To find out more about the behavior of bees.

4.Which of the following is true according to the passage?

A. Young elephants ignore African honeybees.

B. Waterfalls can make elephants stay in one place.

C. Elephants do not go near trees with bees living in them.

D. Farmers do not allow Lucy to conduct tests in their fields.
