  You may think that sailing is difficult, but it is really not hard to learn it. You do not need to be strong. But you need to be quick. And you need to understand a few basic rules about the wind.

  First, you must ask yourself, “Where is the wind coming from? Is it coming from ahead or behind or from the side?” You must think about this all the time on the boat. The wind direction tells you what to do with the sail(帆).

  Let’s start with the wind blowing from behind. This means the wind and the boat are going in the same direction. Then you must always keep the sail outside the boat. It should be at a 90° angle (角度) to the boat. Then it will catch the wind best.

  If the wind is blowing from the side, it is blowing across the boat. In this case, you must keep the sail half way outside the boat. It should be at a 45° angle to the boat. It needs to be out far enough to catch the wind. but it shouldn’t flap (摆动). It shouldn’t look like a flag on a flagpole. If it is flapping, it is probably out too far, and the boat will slow down.

  Sailing into the wind is not possible. If you try, the sail will flap and the boat will stop. You may want to go in that direction. It is possible, but you can’t go in a straight line. You must go first in one direction and then in another. This is called tacking. When you are tacking, you must always keep the sail inside the boat.

64. What should you consider first while sailing?

  A. Sailors’ strength.

  B. Wave levels.

  C. Wind directions.

  D. Size of sails.

65. What does the word “It” underlined in Paragraph 4 refer to?

  A. The sail.

  B. The wind.

  C. The boat.

  D. The angle.

66. What do you have to do when sailing against the wind?

  A. Move in a straight line.

  B. Allow the sail to flap.

  C. Lower the sail.

  D. Tack the boat.

  A major source of teen stress is school exams, and test anxiety is not uncommon. When you recognize your teen is under stress, how can parents help your teen stay calm before an exam?

  Be involved. Parents need to be involved in their teen’s work.  66  What they look for is your patience—to talk, to cry, or simply to sit with them quietly. Communicate openly with your teen. Encourage your teen to express her worries and fears, but don’t let them focus on those fears.

  Help them get organized.  67 Together, you and your teen can work out a timetable in which she can study for what she knows will be on the test.

  Provide a calm setting. Help your teen set up a quiet place to study and protect her privacy. Give them a nutritious diet. It is important for your teen to eat a healthy, balanced diet during exam times to focus and do her best. 68  If this happens, encourage your teen to eat light meals or sandwiches.

   69  Persuade your teenager to get some sleep and/or do something active when she needs a real break from studying. Help your teen balance her time so that she will feel comfortable taking time out from studying to spend time with friends or rest.

  Show a positive attitude.  70  Your panic, anxiety and blame contribute to your teen’s pressure. Make your teen feel accepted and valued for her efforts. Most importantly, reassure your teen that things will be all right, no matter what the results are.

A.Encourage your teen to relax.

B.The best thing is simply to be there.

C.They will only make the situation worse.

D.Exam stress can make some teens lose their appetite (食欲).

  E. A parent’s attitude will affect their teen’s emotions.

  F. Your teen may also make negative comments about themselves.

G. Help your teen think about what she has to study and plan accordingly.

When the children had gone on to other assignments,she __43__ at Douglas’desk,bent down,and asked him whose hand it was.
