18．There is a Malay saying："It is easier to teach a stupid person than a ______ one"．（　　）

17．Jane arrives at Thornfield，having been met at the George Inn．Mrs．Fairfax confuses her a little at first，because she is so informal and welcoming．But in due course Jane discovers that Mrs．Fairfax is the housekeeper．
Jane's pupil，Adele Varens，is the eight-year-old French child under the legal protection of Mr．Edward Rochester，the owner of the house．（We learn later that her mother had claimed she was his illegitimate daughter．Mr．Rochester is not convinced by this claim，but felt he could not leave the little girl poor when her mother died．）
Adele is a pleasant little girl，even if she is not a particularly eager student．Life goes on very peacefully for three months，until the return of Mr．Rochester．Jane first meets him on his horse，and her description of him is quite fanciful．He takes a fall and Jane helps him，although she does not know who he is until they are both back at Thornfield．
It is obvious to the reader，although not to Jane，that the reason why Mr．Rochester stays at Thornfield much longer than usual is that he finds her company enjoyable．Jane，unknowingly at first，falls in love with him．Their closeness is very apparent．There is something about Thornfield that is mysterious．Jane is encouraged to focus her attention on the servant Grace Poole，who is Mr．Rochester's mad wife Bertha Mason's keeper at Thornfield，and whose drunken carelessness frequently allows Bertha to escape and do something violent．
It is clear to the reader，though，that Mr．Rochester's emotional engagement is immense．When his bed is set on fire，Jane rescues him，but does not understand why the matter is not pursued，despite Mr．Rochester assuring her the criminal is Grace．The next morning Grace behaves as though she has done nothing wrong．
Eventually，Mr．Rochester leaves，to go to a house party．He brings everyone at the party back with him，transforming the atmosphere in the house，and delighting Adele．One of the guests is Blanche Ingram，whom Mr．Rochester is confidently expected to marry．However，it is clear from the way she is portrayed in the book that she is too proud； our sympathies are not with her．
Mr．Rochester is called away from the house，and when he returns he chooses to play the role of a fortune teller．It is clear to the reader that one of his motives is to try to turn Blanche against the idea of marriage to him．While he has clearly bothered her，he is unsuccessful．
One afternoon，Jane hears that her cousin John Reed is dead and Mrs．Reed，who is probably on her deathbed，has been asking for her．With strict instructions from Mr．Rochester to return quickly，she sets off to Gateshead．On arrival，she realizes she no longer hates her cousins．However，Mrs．Reed is still bitter towards her，owing to the fact that Jane's mother was Mr Reed's favourite sister and this resulted in him apparently favouring Jane over his own children．
A short time later，Mrs．Reed gives Jane a letter from her uncle，John Eyre，that was written three years earlier．It explains how he planned to adopt Jane and allow her to inherit his fortune．Mrs．Reed never handed the letter over because of her bitterness．Jane tries once more to seek reconciliation （和解），but without success； her aunt dies that night．

16．Feeling exhausted and hopeless，I began walking to my car．Every step seemed tiring，and every step was another to survive．As I looked up into the sky I thought about how my grandmother had left me，and my anger began to return．I was annoyed by the loss，and my belief in God was beginning to fade．I couldn't understand why these things happened．So as I stood in a public parking lot a million questions formed in my mind．Why did this happen to me？Aren't we supposed to get signs from the people that pass on？Why did I not feel her presence anymore？Is there a heaven？
Suddenly，a woman driving right by my side rolled down her window and distracted my unanswered thoughts．"Excuse me，excuse me，excuse me，"she said loudly．Thinking she was going to ask for my parking spot，I simply pointed to my car．The thought of having to say where my car was seemed like too much to bear．"No，excuse me，"she said again．
At this point，I felt I had no choice but to see what this annoying lady wanted．As I got closer，I was startled-was this my grandmother's nurse，Adu，who lived with her during her final months？I soon realized that she wasn't，although the resemblance was unusual．Then，I realized that this Adu was searching for something in her bag．Surprisingly，I was overcome by a sense of relief that led me to be patient the entire time the lady was searching．Others would be nervous by a stranger reaching in their bag，but I wasn't．She finally reached to the very bottom of her bag and handed me a three-page booklet．"It looks like you need this，"she said calmly with a warm smile on her face．
I looked down at the mysterious and obviously used booklet and on the front cover in big bold letters read"What Hope for Dead Loved Ones？"
It took me only a few seconds to comprehend the exchange with this woman，but by the time I looked up，she was gone．
I walked slowly into my car holding the tiny little book that was given to me with fear that it would fly away in the wind．I didn't know what it was exactly，but I knew that if my grandmother had anything to do with that I didn't want to let it go．
I felt a sense of relaxation as I opened the first page．It explained how people pass on，but their spirit remains with us．This was the first time since my grandma had passed that I felt her with me，just like I had wanted．I didn't know whether to laugh or cry，but I did know that I finally felt happiness from the surprising change in events．
I couldn't，and still can't，believe what had happened to me on that day．I don't remember the specific details that you usually hear about like what the person was wearing，the time of day，or even the weather，but it doesn't matter．It was a random day in November when my life turned back around and I began to feel hope again．It was real．It was a miracle．And，I'll remember it for the rest of my life．

15．A recent study suggests that teenagers who switch off the TV and sit down to family meals are less _______ to suffer eating disorders．（　　）

14．As for older people，some of the applications（应用程序）are hard to use because they didn't grow up with them．They don't have simple models of how it should work．They don't know what to do when it doesn't work．
I think there is huge potential，so I have designed some for them．The ability to connect to friends，who remember the same movies，news and music，is really important，especially as people get older．They end up in retirement homes and they aren't always close to their friends．Allowing the network to help them connect with friends  and family members is a really powerful thing．
My wife likes using the Internet，although it took me years to get her to use e-mail．She was born withnormal hearing，but lost it when she was three years old．She was totally deaf for many years until 53whenshe got ear implants（移植）．They work really well．That is a big change for her．Before then，her friendscouldn't call her on the phone，so they insisted that she use e-mails to communicate with them．
The younger people don't even think of this as technology．It's just there，and they use it．There's beena very interesting change in communication styles between the old and the young．A woman named Sharryturkle wrote about this phenomenon（现象）．There are some kids who are now in their teens and aretending not to make phone calls．And they think of e-mail as old-fashioned and slow．
The reason why teens don't make phone calls seems to be that they don't know what to say．Whenthey call they often pause for a while．On the other hand，texting is considered proper，and it's OK if you don't answer．You might have been distracted（心烦意乱的）．It's not considered rude，but it's consideredunusual if you're in this kind of voice conversation and simply stop talling．

11．What to do with dehydration （脱水）？If you can，try not to get dehydrated in the fast place．If you're going outside，it's a good idea to drink water before，during and after you play，especially if it is hot．Dehydration can happen along with heat-related illness，such as heat exhaustion．In addition to drinking  water，it's smart to dress in cool clothes，and take breaks indoors or at least in the shade．
If you're sick，keep taking small sips of drinks like water or juice，even if you're not that thirsty or hungry．Eating an icepop （冰棒） is a great way．Other foods，such as fruits and vegetables，contain water，too．But if your stomach is not feeling well，you might not be ready for them．
The best drink is water，but milk is another great drink for kids．Juice is OK，but choose it less often than water and milk Sports drinks are fine once in a while，but water should be considered as champion of the drinks．Limit soda and other sugary drinks，which contain a lot of sugar．Some of them also contain caffeine，which can cause you to urinate  （小便） more often than normal．In other，it tells your body to get rid of fluids．
Some cases of dehydration can be handled at home，but sometimes，that isn't enough．A kid may need to go to the doctor if he or she has a heat-related illness that just won't quit．At the hospital，if necessary，you'll get a fluid infusion（补液）It will help you feel much better and recover faster．

10．Do you often find yourself buried in lots of work and not knowing where to start？Or，are you often rushing to meet deadlines（截止日期）？This is a common problem for many managers with an increasing workload．At a very important time，it makes us nervous to achieve goals on time，which in turn can hurt the quality of our work．Becoming more organized in your working style can help make for a smoother sail at work．
Plan ahead：This is an obvious starting point，but the key is to stick to it，and to keep revising plans as things change．Set both long-term plans as well as a daily list of tasks．"Put things on your calendar rather than let things lead the calendar"，says Ongmu Gombu．"This calendar should list tasks by priority（优先），with the‘most important task'placing at number one，"says Mr．Gombu．Planning ahead will help you gain a task that comes seasonally．
Prioritize：Once you know what needs to be done，be clear about what to do first．If you need help deciding，talk to your boss．Another way of prioritizing tasks is by understanding what has more impact on the business．An important part of prioritizing is to finish your work even if you have a comfortable deadline．
Keep cool：Often your well-planned and well-prioritized list will be thrown away by an event outside your control．Don't let this put you totally off track．Keep yourself cool，because getting nervous and stressed about all that needs to be done will probably make you mad．Take a few deep breaths，and start with the most important task first．If you can't decide one of two tasks，just pick one by throwing a coin．By doing this，you at least start moving toward your goal rather than wasting time．
Get help：When work comes at the same time and it seems like everything has to be done right away，seek help from your co-workers．This will ease the pressure and help you do a better job．It's a two-way road，so be ready to help your co-workers in their times of need．Or even better，volunteer to do so when you have time．If you are a manager，groom your team members for more senior roles and give them power to make decisions so that you can rely on them when needed．

A．planning ahead is the most important thing to finish your work

9．Dogs are social animals and without proper training they will behave like wild animals． They will spoil your house，destroy your belongings，bark excessively，fight other dogs and even  bite you．Nearly all behavior problems are perfectly normal dog activities that occur at the wrong  time or place or are directed at the wrong thing．The key to preventing or treating behavior problems is learning to teach the dog to redirect its normal behavior to outlets （发泄途径） that are acceptable in the domestic setting．
One of the best things you can do for your dog and yourself is to train it．Obedience training  （驯服训练） doesn't solve all behavior problems，but it is the foundation for solving just about any problem．Training sets up a line of communication between you and your dog．Effective communication is necessary to instruct your dog about what you want it to do．
Training is also an easy way to establish the social rank order．When your dog obeys a simple request of"come here，sit，"it is showing obedience and respect for you．It is not necessary to establish yourself as top dog or leader of the pack （群） by using extreme measures．You can teach your dog its subordinate （从属的） role by teaching it to show submission to you．Most dogs love performing tricks for you to pleasantly accept that you are in charge．
Training should be fun and rewarding for you and your dog．It can enrich your relationship and make living together more enjoyable．A well-trained dog is more confident and can more safely be allowed a greater amount of freedom than an untrained animal．
