If you study abroad, it’s necessary to mix with the locals. This allows you

【1】(test) your language skills and find out more about the local culture. Having lived abroad for three years, I’m able to put forward a list of tips to help you make friends in a foreign country.

Firstly, say yes to everything within reason. Obviously, if you don’t feel 【2】 ease, you can choose not to do anything. However, don’t put off trying something new. The group of students from your class who invite you out for a coffee might end up 【3】(be) your friends for life!

Secondly, develop a 【4】 (entire) new hobby. Join a dance class, a walking club or learn to cook the local food—the 【5】(possibility) are endless!

Thirdly, get out of the house! Hours 【6】(spend) on the computer chatting with your family back at home surely make you even homesick. Just get out and explore the exciting place you live in.

Lastly, be 【7】(confidence) when you are surrounded by people speaking 【8】 unfamiliar language. Even if you may find 【9】 difficult to involve yourself in conversations, you should try to make your voice heard. Once you open your mouth and begin to speak, it’s likely 【10】 you will find everyone wants to know more about you.

There was a man who had a lot of money but hated sharing with it, even with his wife. When he was close to die, he made his wife promise that she’d put all her money in the casket with him, for he wanted to take away all his fortune. Soon the man died and his funeral took place. After the casket was closed, his wife shouted to wait a minute and put the box inside. Everyone was amazed, thought she was a woman of her promise. After the casket buried, one of the man’s dearest friends asked the wife if she had really put all the man’s money in the casket. The wife immediate answered that she had to keep her words. She said she had put all his money into her account and then wrote him a check.

Before a child starts school, his or her main role models are his or her parent or caregiver. Parents or caregivers with high self-esteem( 自尊) typically model this to the children, who will gradually pick up these ideas. Those who are influenced by negativity（否定性，消极态度), even if the negativity is not towards them, will often take the same way of thinking, leading to low self-esteem in childhood.

Continual praise for a child’s achievements plays a large part in a child’s view of himself or herself. Praising a child for acting as expected or something good often encourages him or her to repeat the same action and forms a sense of self-worth. Empty praise, however, can have the opposite（相反的）effect. A child who is praised for anything will stop believing the words, and the empty praise will have little effect on self-esteem in childhood or possibly a negative effect.

Providing a child with responsibilities based on his or her abilities is also important in the development of self-esteem in childhood. Making a child feel like a helpful member of a family or group, whether at home or school, helps to form a higher sense of confidence in his or her abilities. However, giving a child unfit responsibilities or tasks can do no good to the development of high self-esteem in childhood.

Each person has strengths and weaknesses. A child can build up his or her confidence level when he/she is encouraged to take part in activities ,which can provide him or her with chances to work on weaknesses(缺点) in a helpful environment . Children who are given the opportunities to use their unique skills to help others or improve themselves have higher self-esteem than those who are not given the same chances or who are pushed into activities that they do not enjoy or do not have an ability to do.

Sports teachers of other countries liked De Coubertin ideas. So in 1896, the modern Olympic Games were held in Athens, Greece. Since then the Olympics have been held once every four years, except three times, when there were wars.

The modern Olympic games have many foot races and field sports programs. The longest race in the games is called marathon.

Before the start of the Olympic Games, runners carry lighted torch( 火炬 ) through many nations towards the stadium where the games will be held. These sportsmen are from different countries. Yet they work together to carry the Olympic torch. It is passed from runner to runner, When the last runner enters the stadium, he or she places the torch in a special basin filled with oil. It catches fire. It is then, only then, that the Olympic Games can begin.

The Olympic flame burns throughout the games. It is the flame of peace.
