                                                        Communication Principles
     How you see yourself can make a great difference in how you communicate. "Every individual exists
in a continually changing world of experience of which he (or she) is the center". Many communication
scholars and social scientists believe that people are products of how others treat them and of the messages
others send them. But every day we experience the centrality of our selves in communication. A student,
for instance, may describe a conflict with a teacher as unfair treatment:"I know my teacher doesn't like the
fact that I don't agree with his opinions and that's why he gave me such a poor grade in that class. "The
teacher might say the opposite. Each person may believe that he is correct and that the other person's view
is wrong.
     The concept of self originates in communication. Through verbal and nonverbal symbols, a child learns
to accept roles in response to the expectations of others. You establish self-image. The sort of person you
believe you are, by how others think of you. Positive, negative, and neutral messages that you receive from
others all play a role in determining who you are. Communication itself is probably best understood as a
dialogue process. Our understanding of communication comes from our interactions with other people. In
a more obvious way, communication involves others in the sense that a competent communicator considers
what the other person needs and expects when selecting messages to share. So,the communication begins
with the self, as defined largely by others,and involves others, as defined largely by the self.
     Communication occurs almost every minute of your life. If you are not communicating with yourself
(thinking, planning, reacting to the world around you), you are observing others and drawing inferences from
their behavior. Even if the other person did not intend a message for you, you gather observations and draw
specific conclusions. A person yawns and you believe that person is bored with your message. A second
person looks away from you and you conclude that person is not listening to you. A third person smiles
(perhaps because of a memory of a joke he heard recently) and you believe that he is attracted to you. We
are continually picking up meanings from others' behaviors and we are constantly providing behaviors that
have communicative value for them.
     More often than not, you may have hurt someone accidentally and you may have tried to explain that you
did not mean that. You may have told the other person that you were sorry for your statement. You may
have made a joke out of your rude statement. Nonetheless, your comment remains both in the mind of the
other person and in your own mind. You cannot go back in time and erase your messages to others.
Communication cannot be reversed (倒退),n or can it be repeated. When you tried to re-create the atmosphere,
the conversation,and the setting, nothing seemed right. Your second experience with a similar setting and
person made far different results.

     Teen Dating can be fun if you are aware of its pros and cons and are also aware of the ways to protect
yourself. There are a couple of suggestions you would like to know before you are out for dating.

     When I was a child, I often dreamed of the time when I could leave home and escape to the city. We lived
on a farm. In the winter especially, we wear quite out off from the outside world. As soon as I left school, I
packed my bags and moved to the capital. However, I soon discovered that my life has its too.
     One big disadvantage is money. It costs so much to go out, not to mention basics like food and housing.
Another disadvantage is pollution. I suffer from asthma (哮喘), and the air is so that I am afraid to go outside.
Then there is the problem of traveling round. Although I have a car, I seldom use it became of the traffic jams.
One choice is to go by bicycle, but that can be quite dangerous.
     Of course there are advantages. First, there is so much to do in the city, whatever you tastes in culture or
entertainment (娱乐活动). Besides, there are wonderful jobs and greater chances of moving to a more important
job or position. Finally, if you like shopping, the variety of goods is very surprising-and, what is more, shops
are often only a short walk away.
     Is life better then, in the city? Perhaps it is, when you are in your teens (十几岁) or twenties. However, as
you get older, and especially if you have small children, the peace of the countryside may seem preferable. I
certainly hope to move back there soon.
1. What was the writer always thinking about when he was a child?
A. Staying on the farm.
B. Moving to the countryside.
C. Leaving home for the city.
D. Running away from the school.
2. Which of the following is true about the writer?
A. He is very old now.
B. He is in good health.
C. He prefers driving a car.
D. He lives in the city now.
3. In the passage, the writer tries to _____.
A. express his opinions about way of life
B. describe his life in the countryside
C. an interest in the outside world
D. persuade the reader to live in the city
4. How is the passage mainly developed?
A. By inferring.
B. By comparing.
C. By listing examples.
D. By giving explanations.

     Maybe ten-year-old Elizabeth put it best when she said to her father, "But, Dad, you can't be healthy if
you're dead."
     Dad, in a hurry to get home before dark so he could go for a run, had forgotten to wear his safety belt-a
mistake 75% of the US population make every day. The big question is why.
     There have been many myths (谬论) about safety belts ever since their first appearance m cars some
forty years ago. The following are three of the most common.
     Myth Number One: It's best to be "thrown clear" of a serious accident.
     Truth: Sorry, but any accident serious enough to "throw you clear" is also going to be serious enough
to give you a very bad landing. And chances are that you'll have traveled through a wind-shield (挡风玻璃)
or door to do it. Studies show that chances of dying after a car accident are twenty-five times greater in
cases where people are "thrown clear".
     Myth Number Two: Safety belts "trap" people in cars that are burning or sinking in water.
     Truth: Sorry again but studies show that people knocked unconscious (昏迷) due to not wearing safety
belts have a greater chance of dying in these accidents. People wearing safety belts are usually protected to
the point of having a clear head to free themselves from such dangerous situations, not to be trapped in them.
     Myth Number Three: Safety belts aren't needed at speeds of less than 30 miles per hour.

with a force equal to diving head first into the ground from a height of 10 meters.

     It's perfectly normal for young children to suddenly decide they hate everything-even foods they loved
yesterday. It's also common for them to go on what experts call food jags-that is, they want to eat the same
few foods over and over again at every meal, while turning up their noses at anything new. "It's a fear of new
things," says Nancy, Hudson, a researcher in University of California, Berkeley. "We think it's one of those
quirks (怪癖) that humans probably developed to protect themselves as mankind came into this world. You
don't try new things because you don't know if they're safe." Children like familiar things, whether they're their
beds or their aftemoon tea,so most kids won't try new foods until they've been shown to them many times.
     Picky (挑剔的) eating can also be a child's way of showing his independence. This is why forcing a child
to eat often makes things worse. Finally, it may seem like your child cannot sit still long enough to eat very
much at one sitting because of his short attention. But children are generally good at getting what they need,
even if it doesn't seem like much to you. In any case, you can try to keep your child at the table longer by
making mealtime as calm and regular as possible, without too many distractions (分心的事物) like toys, TV,
or pets.
1. How many reasons does the writer mention in this passage to explain why children are mostly picky eaters?
A. Three.
B. Two.
C. Four.
D. One.
2. What does the phrase "turning up their noses" underlined in Paragraph l mean?
A. Accepting.
B. Disliking.
C. Putting their noses on.
D. Fearing.
3. Which statement is TRUE according to the passage?
A. Only children like things which they are familiar with.
B. Toys are not good for children.
C. It seems that children like eating more when they have something they like in their hands.
D. Make it a rule to let your child eat at the table when meal- time comes.
4. According to the writer, one of the ways to have children eat new foods is _____.
A. telling them stories while they're eating
B. not giving them any food until they're very hungry
C. letting them become familiar with the new foods
D. explaining to them how useful the new foods are

     Advertising informs consumers about new products available on the market. It gives us information
about everything from shampoo to tooth-paste to computers and cars. But there is one series problem
with this. The "information" is actually very often "misinformation". It tells us the products, benefits but
hides their disadvantages. Advertising not only leads us to buy things that we don't need and can't afford,
but it also confuses our sense of reality.
     Advertisers use many methods to get us to buy their products. One of their most successful methods
is to make us feel dissatisfied with ourselves and our imperfect lives. Advertisements show us who we
aren't and what we don't have. "Why don't I have any dates (约会)?" a good-looking girl sadly asks in a
commercial. "Here," replies her roommate, "Try Zoom tooth-paste!" Of course she tried it, and immediately
the whole football team falls in love with her. "That's a stupid commercial," we might say. But we still buy
Zoom tooth-paste out of fear of being unpopular and having no friends.
     If fear is the negative motive (动机) for buying a product, then wanting a good self-image is the positive
reason for choosing it. Each of us has a mental picture of the kind of person we would like to be. For
example, a modern young woman might like to think that she looks like a beautiful movie star. A middle-aged
man might want to see himself as a strong, attractive athlete. Advertisers know this. They write specific ads
to make certain groups of people choose their products.
     Advertisers get psychologists to study the way consumers think and their reasons for choosing one brand
instead of another. These experts tell advertisers about the motives of fear and self-image. They also inform
them about recent studies with colors and words. They have found that certain colors on the package of an
attractive product will cause people to reach out and take that package instead of buying an identical (同一的、
相等的) product with different colors.
     Many people believe that advertising does not affect them. They like to think they make wise choices.
Unfortunately, they probably don't realize the powerful effect of advertising. They may not clearly understand
that advertisers spend billions of dollars each year in aggressive (强有力的) competition for our money, and
they are extremely successful.
1. Advertising _____.
[     ]
A. gives us valuable information about new products
B. misinforms us
C. doesn't influence us very much
D. doesn't always tell us everything about a product
2. "A modern young woman might like to think that she looks like a beautiful movie star" That means _____.
[     ]
A. a modern young woman wants to be as attractive as possible
B. every modern young woman wants to act in movies
C. most modern women think that they are beautiful
D. modern woman are not always satisfied with themselves
3. Advertisers _____ to make us buy their products.
[     ]
A. offer very low prices
B. get information from psychologists
C. use similar method
D. need to use better detergent (洗涤剂) and shampoo
4. Psychologists tell advertisers _____.
[     ]
A. which brands of tooth-paste to produce
B. to stop influencing shoppers
C. about people's motives for buying
D. how much money to spend on television
