16．Body image is a person's opinions，thoughts，and feelings about his or her own body and physical appearance．Having a positive body image means feeling pretty satisfied with the way you look，appreciating your body for its capabilities and accepting its imperfections．Body image is part of someone's total self-image．So how a guy feels about his body can affect how he feels about himself．
Recognize your strengths．Different physical qualities and body types are good for different things-and sometimes the things you did well as a kid can change during puberty （青春期）．What does your body do well？Maybe your speed，flexibility，strength，or coordination leads you to excel at a certain sport．Or perhaps you have some non-sports skills．Just exploring talents that you feel good about can help your self-respect and how you think of yourself．
A good body doesn't always translate into athletic success．Too often，the way guys see their body image is closely associated with their performance on a sports field or in the gym．But what if you don't like team sports or you got cut from a team you really wanted to make？
If you don't like team sports，find another form of physical activity that gets you going．This will help you stay in shape and help you to appreciate the skills you may not have realized you had in a team environment．
If you like team sports but didn't make a particular team，use this as an opportunity to discover what you're good at，not to regret what you aren't best at．
Look into starting a strength training program．Exercise can help you look good and feel good about yourself．Good builds don't just happen-they take hard work，regular workouts，and a healthy diet．There's no need to work out too much．A healthy routine can be as simple as exercising 20minutes to 1hour three days a week．Another benefit of working out properly is that it can cheer up yourself--lifting weights can lift your spirits．
Don't harm your body，respect it!To help improve your view of your body，take care of it．Treating yourself well over time results in a healthier，stronger body--and that contributes to a better body image．Practicing good living habits-regular showering； taking care of your teeth，hair，and skin； wearing clean clothes，etc．--also can help you build a positive body image．
Be yourself．Your body is just one part of who you are-along with your talent for comedy，a quick wit，or all the other things that make you unique．Your talents，skills，and beliefs are just as much a part of you as the cover they come in．So try not to let minor imperfections take over．

55．The HM）st important point of body image lies in it that ijt is closely associated withD
A．one's physical appearance   B．one's athletic achievements

C．A good body image results mainly from extreme workouts．
D．Exploring non-sports talents matters equally as sports skills in building self-respect．

3．Thailand is a country with a diverse scenery．There is somewhere to visit at whatever time of the year．
In central Thailand and the eastern provinces，the hot summer weather starts around mid February and goes on to April．In April，the extreme temperatures can go up to the 40degrees centigrade．The winter months are from mid November to mid February．There may only be a few days of sincerely cold weather during these months．The rainy season kicks in from May to October．The rain is frequent and sometimes fierce．Usually rainstorms go on for around 30minutes or so．If you're visiting the beach destinations in the east （Pattaya，Rayong，Koh Chang），the best time is from December to May．
Northem Thailand and the Northeast have the same basic seasons although the winters are significantly cooler．Mountainous regions can get particularly cold，on some occasions down to 0degrees centigrade．In these parts，winter starts in November and goes on to February．Without doubt the rest months are the best-flowers are in bloom，it is dry and cool，and in the mountains fogs often form，making it quite a wonderful scenery．April is also a great month-during the Songkran Festival people will most likely throw water at you．
Southern Thailand has only two seasons-summer and the rainy season．The Gulf of Thailand lies to the east of the Thai peninsula（半岛） while the Andaman Sea lies to the west．Visiting areas west of the peninsula （Phuket，Phang Nga，Krabi） is best done between mid November and April to avoid the monsoons（季风） that occur during other months-monsoons obviously make visiting islands by boat difficult and sometimes dangerous．Areas east of the peninsula （Koh Samui，Hat Yai） are best visited from December to June．

13．Archaeologists believe they are on the turning point of throwing light on the life of William Shakespeare-by excavating （发掘） what may have been the playwright's dust hole．
Experts have begun excavating the ruins of New Place，Shakespeare's former home in Stratford-upon-Avon，which was destroyed 250 years ago．Although little remains of the property，the team，led by Birmingham Archaeology，believes it has identified a dust hole used by the 16th century poet．
Small pieces of pottery （陶瓷） and broken clay pipe have already been found from a muddy hole on the site，which they claim could yield some of the most significant discoveries about Shakespeare in decades．The dig focuses on three areas of the property，which Shakespeare bought in 1597 when he returned to his home town from London having achieved fame-including the so-called knot garden at the back of the building．
Dr Diana Owen，Director of the Shakespeare Birthplace Trust，which owns the site，said，"We do not know if the knot garden was an area used by Shakespeare-it may have been a yard simply used by his servants．But this could actually yield some fantastic results，especially if it was an area where rubbish was thrown or the dust hole was located．"
Kevin Colls，from Birmingham Archaeology，added，"Through documentary evidence we know Shakespeare lived at New Place but we have very little information regarding the layout （布局） of the house and gardens at this time．Through archaeological fieldwork，in particular the dig of structural remains and the recovery of artefacts，we hope to fill in the blanks．"
Until October，visitors will be able to watch archaeologists and volunteers at work as they excavate the remains of the house，which was knocked down in 1759．Experts hope to unearth evidence to support theories that Shakespeare wrote many of his most famous works at the property．

20．Personal computers and the Internet give people new choices about how to spend their time．
Some may use this freedom to share less time with certain friends or family members，but new technology will also let them stay in closer touch with those they care most about．I know this from personal experience．
E-mail makes it easy to work at home，which is where I now spend most weekends and evenings．My working hours aren't necessarily much shorter than they once were but I spend fewer of them at the office．This lets me share more time with my young daughter than I might have if she'd been born before electronic mail became such a practical tool．
The Internet also makes it easy to share thoughts with a group of friends．Say you do something fun see a great movie perhaps-and there are four or five friends who might want to hear about it．If you call each one，you may tire of telling the story．
With E-mail，you just write one note about your experience，at your convenience，and address it to all the friends you think might be interested．They can read your message when they have time，and read only as much as they want to．They can reply at their convenience，and you can read what they have to say at your convenience．
E-mail is also an inexpensive way stay in close touch with people who live far away．More than a few parents use E-mail to keep in touch，even daily touch，with their children off at college．
We just have to keep in mind that computers and the Internet offer another way of staying in touch．They don't take the place of any of the old ways．

18．Honesty is a virtue，and telling a lie is morally wrong．But how can you know if someone is （81）lying？The answer is，they're probably not．Traditional economics says that people are rational beings who will lie if it is （82）to their advantage．A recent university study has shown that，actually，we're pretty honest-especially （83）when we're at home．
Researchers in Germany phoned people at home and asked them to toss a coin．There was a strong financial incentive （激励） to fake the result：if the coin landed tails-up，the participant would receive money or a gift voucher，while if the coin landed heads-up，they would get（84）nothing．Because they were on the phone，they knew there was no （85）risk of getting caught if they lied．And yet people revealed the truth despite that they（86）would receive （receive） nothing．Over hundreds of tosses a coin will land tails-up roughly 50% of the time．In this study over half the people （55.6%） asked said that the coin landed heads-up．Most of them didn't pursue the reward at the （87）cost/expense/price of honesty．
Previous studies had found that people were more dishonest．In those laboratory studies 75% of people，（88）including （include） some who faked the results，reported a winning coin and claimed a reward．So the research team guesses it's being in our own home （89）that makes us play fair．（90）However，what motivates people to do so remains unclear．
