F. Be polite to People You Meet

Moving to a new city can be both exciting and scary. Whether you are moving for a job, school or just to start over somewhere new, it can function as a fresh start. However, leaving behind old friends and finding new ones is not always easy. Maintaining a positive attitude and being open to new situations and people will make the adjustment easier.

1.________  

Trying new things will always put you in the position to run into new people. However, chances are, if you are by yourself instead of with a group of friends, other people will be more comfortable approaching you because they are less likely to feel as though they are bothering you or intruding. Go for walks by yourself, read a book in the park or have dinner at a restaurant alone. Doing things alone can also make you appear confident and interesting to others.

2.________  

Visit the same coffee shops or restaurants as often as possible. Talk to the employees and be friendly. Over time, the people that work there will recognize you and you can build relationships with them that way. This can also help you feel like you blend in and belong in your new neighborhood. Ask the employees for suggestions on things to do. They are great resources to find out the latest activities and events happening in your city, and they may even join you.

3.________   

You will not meet new people sitting in your house, so you will want to put yourself in situations with other people. Joining a gym, club or other social group can be a low pressure way to meet new people who have the same interests as you. Moving to a new city is a great time to try a new activity you are interested in, such as yoga or martial arts.

4.________ 

If you moved for a job or school, you will be surrounded by new people. Even if they are not necessarily the type of people you would normally be friends with, try to keep an open mind. Common interests provide the start of many wonderful friendships. Your coworkers or fellow students will likely be able to introduce you to other people you may get along with as well.

5.________     

Sites like Linked In and Yahoo offer several online forums (论坛) that can help expand networking opportunities. You could become friends with someone through one of the online discussions and then meet in person later. Linked In lists several groups it feels you might enjoy. Get involved with the groups that meet in person with things like business book groups, networking events, or social mixers. To join a Yahoo group, click on “groups,” then “business and finance.” Type in the name of your city in the search screen, and scroll through the list of local groups that appear.

How to Read a Book

Books can be your best friends.  1  They can introduce you the things you may never see… But do you know how to read them in order to get the fullest enjoyment possible? The following tips should help.

1.   Find a book. Look in the library or in one of the large bookstores. You could also ask friends if you could have a book at their book shelves. Search the selves until you find a book that looks good.Read the first page to see how it reads, and the cover text on the back of the book, if it has any.  2

2.   Buy or borrow it and take it home. Do not start to read it until you have the time.  3  And set aside time to do nothing else but read, as it can be, at times, suspenseful(悬疑的), exciting and relaxing.

3.   Get comfortable on the couch. Have a lamp( 灯 ) behind you, lighting the area where you are reading. Make sure the television is off and that anything else that could distract you has been attended to.  4 .

4.   Start the book by turning the pages and really enjoy it. Do not think about anything else but what you are reading. Put yourself into the action or location in the story. Once you concentrate completely, it will be difficult to put the book down. And remember that reading is not running your eyes over a book.  5  However, if you need to read the book quickly, then you do not need to pay attention to every word.

A.If you are busy doing other things, you should wait until you have finished them.

B.Get warm if you are going to be sitting still for a few hours.

C.If you are already concentrating, then buy it or borrow it.

D.Try to imagine the story in your head.

E.     They can take you to places that you may never go.

F.     You should read it actively and enjoy it completely.

G.     Otherwise, you will miss it.
