When it comes to President Obama, most of his personal business is already known by the public. Personal information about his children, Malia and Sasha, however, has been kept a little more under wraps.

The New York Times recently released（公布）a list of rules that Michelle Obama has mentioned over the years that Malia and Sasha must follow during their time in the White House, as well as in general. See how the first family educates their children:

The girls must write reports about what they've seen on their trips, even if it's not required by their school.

Malia may use her cell phone only on the weekends, and she and her sister cannot watch television or use a computer for anything but homework during the week.

Malia and Sasha have to play two sports: one they choose and one selected by their mother.

Malia must learn to do laundry(洗衣服) before she leaves for college.

The girls have to eat their vegetables, and if they say they are not hungry, they cannot ask for cookies or chips later.

While these might be shocking to some, Michelle said, “They're not little princess(公主）. It's just basic rules, boundaries, and expectations that we would have normally.”

Michelle also mentions another set of rules:

The girls must do their chores(家务), though the White House has a large staff (职员). Malia and Sasha have chores of their own.

They must play a team sport, because it's about learning how to play on a team, how to lose and how to win gracefully.

…

It sounds like Michelle and Barack want the best for their kids and to make them as well-rounded（全面发展）as possible. What are your thoughts on the Obama family rules?

Nonverbal （非语言的）Communication

When you are in another country, it is important to know the language, but it is equally important to know how to communicate nonverbally. Before saying anything, people communicate nonverbally by making gestures. According to an investigation(调查),only 30 to 35 percent of our communication is verbal. When people don’t know the language, the most common way to communicate is through gestures. However, many gestures have different meanings, or no meaning at all, in different parts of the world.

In the United States, for example, nodding your head up and down means “yes”. In some parts of Greece and Turkey, however, this motion can mean “no”. In Southeast Asia, nodding your head is a polite way of saying “I’ve heard you.”

In ancient Rome, when the emperor wanted to spare someone’s life, he would put his thumb up. Today in the United States, when someone puts his/her thumb up, it means “Everything is all right.” However, in Sardinia and Greece, the gesture is insulting (侮辱)and should not be used there.

In the United States, raising your clasped(握紧的) hands above your head means “I’m the champion” or “I’m the winner”. It is the sign that prizefighters make when they win a fight. When a leading Russian statesman(政治家) made this gesture after a White House meeting, Americans misunderstood and thought he meant he was a winner. In Russia, however, it is a sign of friendship.

There are other nonverbal signals that people should be aware of when they go to another country, such as the distance to maintain between speakers. Americans stand closer to each other than English people. English people don’t like touching somebody or being touched. Now in America, touch is important. For example friends touch each other on the arm. They often put an arm around a friend when they say “hello” or “goodbye”.

1.It is very important to know how to communicate nonverbally when you are in another country because .

A. most people speak different languages

B. much of our communication is nonverbal on many occasions

C. people usually make gestures before saying anything

D. it’s easy to learn how to express oneself through gestures

2.If a native in Singapore nods his head up and down when you talk to him, his motion means .

A. yes B. no

C. that’s all right D. I’ve heard you

3.When the Russian leader put up his clasped hands after the meeting at the White House .

A. he meant Russia was the winner

B. he was insulting America

C. he made a show of friendship to America

D. he in fact meant nothing at all

4.The gesture of putting one’s thumb up should not be used when you are travelling in .

A. China B. the United States

C. Greece D. Southeast Asia

A few days ago, I was sitting in a Thai restaurant enjoying a meal when I got on a phone call from a friend I hadn’t spoken to in a long time. In my enthusiasm and excitement, I talked quite louder than usual voice and in Spanish, my mother tongue.

A few minutes into the call, an old lady sitting at the table beside mine got up, seemingly offended, and asked the restaurant staff to relocate (重新安排) a table as far away as possible from this man who seemed to be impolite.

I sank in my seat out of embarrassment. I ended the call soon afterwards and felt the urge to apologize. Before getting up, I looked around to see where she was and she was at the table farthest away from me. I noticed that the lady was alone and staring out the window. I found a tinge (气息) of sadness or anxiety and perhaps a desire for aloneness and peace. But I had obviously destroyed it minutes earlier.

Right then I abandoned my plan for a conventional apologetic gesture. Seeing those funny smile cards in my wallet, I took one out and wrote some words to express my apology. On signing my restaurant bill, I asked a waiter to secretly charge the lady’s meal to me and hand her the smile card instead of her bill.

Did she take it the wrong way, I wondered? Did she get confused? Did she refuse the anonymous (匿名的) offer? And so on. I just waited and felt nervous to learn the outcome. To my pleasant surprise, things turned out the best possible way.

The waiter approached me in a joy, telling me, “In the many times she had dined here before, I had never seen the old lady smile as she did when receiving the smile card and the $0 bill. She thanked me even though I explained that someone else did the job.”

1.The old lady changed her seat mainly because of __________.

A. her private phone call

B. the author’s loud voice

C. the views out of the window

D. the restaurant staff’s mistake

2.What can we infer from Paragraph 3?

A. The author didn’t stop talking though he felt embarrassed.

B. The author went up to the old lady and apologized to her.

C. The old lady just moved to the farthest table to see outside.

D. The lady didn’t have a nice mood and liked to stay alone.

3.Feeling sorry, the author offered the old lady the following EXCEPT __________.

A. an apologetic gesture

B. a smile card

C. a free meal

D. some written words to apologize

4.Which of the following is the best title of this passage?

A. A Misunderstanding Caused by Different Cultures

B. An Unpleasant Experience in Thailand

C. A Smile Card for a Sincere Apology

October 15th is the Global Handwashing Day. Activities are planned in more than 20 countries to get millions of people in the developing world to wash their hands with soap. For example, donators will give 150,000 bars of soap to schools in Ethiopia.

Experts say people around the world wash their hands every day, but very few use soap at so-called important moments. These include after using the toilet, after cleaning a baby and before touching food.

Global Handwashing Day is the idea of the Public-Private Partnership for Handwashing with Soap. Partners include the United Nations Children’s Fund, American government agencies, the World Bank and soap makers Unlever and Procter and Gamble. The organizers say all soaps are equally effective at removing disease-causing germ. They say the correct way to wash is to wet your hands with a small amount of water and cover them with soap. Rub it into all areas, including under the fingernails. Rub for at least twenty seconds. Then rinse well under running water. Finally, dry your hands with a clean cloth or wave them in the air.

The Partnership for Handwashing says soap is important because it increases the time that people spend in washing hands. Soap also helps to break up the dirt that holds most of the germs. And it usually leaves a pleasant smell. The Partnership for Handwashing also says washing with soap before eating or after using the toilet could save more lives than any vaccine(疫苗)or medicine. Hand washing could also prevent the spread of other diseases. When people get germs on their hands, they can infect themselves by touching their eyes, noses or mouths. Then they can infect others.
