Keeping a Diary in English
Our teacher asks us to keep a diary in English. I   36   doing so because I think keeping a diary in English is one of the effective ways to   37   our English writing ability.
Compared with   38   forms of writing, it is shorter and   39   less time. It can help us to   40   the habit of thinking in English.  41   we persist in(坚持) this practice, gradually we’ll learn how to express ourselves in English. In keeping a diary in English,   42   can use the important phrases and sentences we’ve   43   in or out of English classes to describe our   44  , and this way we can master and use freely   45   we’ve learned, which will do good  46  us in English learning. But   47   we certainly run up against many difficulties. In the first place, it often happens that we have   48   finding proper words and phrases to give expression to our mind. Secondly, there   49   many idiomatic (惯用的) ways of saying things in Chinese. And it is extremely hard   50   us to put them into English properly.
As far as I am concerned, my suggestion is that we   51   always have a notebook and a Chinese-English dictionary within easy reach. Whenever   52   beats(难倒) us, we can first put it down in our notebook and then look it up in our dictionary. We can also turn to our English teacher for   53  , if necessary.
In short, I believe that it is of   54   use to keep a diary in English for the development of our   55   skills.

My suggestion is that a plan for study ____ at first.

When someone gives you advice, listen without judgment, try to find value in what you’re hearing, and say: “Thank you”. This wise advice is easy to understand yet hard to practice. I’ll give you an example from my life when I totally blew it in term of practicing what I teach.
In my work I travel constantly. I always put off going to the airport until the last second. My wife, Lyda, was sitting next to me in the front seat. I was racing along and not paying much attention. Lyda cried out: “Look out! There is a red light up ahead.”
Being a trained behavioral science professional—who teaches others the value of encouraging advice—I naturally screamed at her: “I know there is a red light up ahead! Don’t you think I can see?” When we arrived at the airport, Lyda didn’t speak to me. I wondered why she seemed mad at me.
During the flight to New York, I did a cost-benefit analysis. I asked myself: “What was the cost of just listening when Lyda called out the warning? Zero.” I then reasoned: “What was the potential benefit? What could have been saved?” Several potential benefits came to mind, including her life, my life, and the lives of other people.
I landed in New York feeling ashamed of myself. I immediately called Lyda and told her my cost-benefit story. I convinced her: “The next time you help me with my driving, I am just going to say, ‘Thank you!’”
A few months passed, and I had long forgotten the incident. Again, I was racing off to the airport, when Lyda cried out: “Look out for the red right!” I was embarrassed, and then shouted: “Thank you!”
I’m a long way from perfect, but I’m getting better. My suggestion is that you get in the habit of asking the important people in your life how you can do things better. And be ready for an answer. Some people may tell you things like “Look out for the red light.” When this happens, remember that there is possibly some potential benefit. Then just say: “Thank you.”

A. He is expert at behavioral science.             
B. He is gifted in cost-benefit analysis.
C. He seldom takes his wife’s advice.              
D. He often runs the red traffic light.

A. became annoyed with the adviser                B. forgot the practical method
C. failed to say “Thank you”                                D. lost personal judgment

A. tend to be defensive when given advice    
B. intend to follow others’ suggestions
C. had better study behavioral science
D. should give their opinions patiently
