If there's a child in your house who likes pixies（精灵）, nature, or magic, Tinker Bell and the Lost Treasure is sure to be a hit． This beautifully animated film is a first class production in every way, and features the familiar voices of Kristin Chenoweth, Anjelica Huston, Jane Horrocks, Lucy Liu, and Raven Symone．The movie offers up an adventure that's easy enough to follow, but complex enough to hold one's

attention, and even throws in a nice little moral about friendship．What can I say? I'm pleasantly surprised．

The promising Mae Whitman voices Tinker Bell herself, a far more dynamic character than we met in Peter Pan．Though Tinker still possesses her fiery temper,  it doesn't manifest itself immediately,  and takes a backseat to this pixie's many good qualities． As it turns out, Tinker Bell is extremely skilled at tinkering （修补 ）, so she is a natural choice to build a special scepter（拐杖）,for Pixie Hollow's Autumn Celebration．The scepter will hold the moonstone through which the light of the Blue Moon will pass,  supplying Pixie Hollow with enough pixie dust for the year ahead．

For days, Tinkers works hard on the perfect scepter design while her good friend Terrence does his best to assist． When Terrence accidentally breaks the Moon Stone, Tinker Bell "explodes and sends him away．One of Tinker's more literal friends finds this extremely concerning, as she doesn't' quite understand

that the outburst was emotional rather than physical - very funny indeed．

After hearing the legend of the lost treasure, Tinker Bell strikes out on her own to find a new Moon Stone．She faces many difficulties and meets new friends along the way, but when Terrence comes to the rescue at Tinker's darkest hour, she realizes the value of a truly loyal friend． Though the film offers a positive message to young viewers, it's the animation that makes Tinker Bell and the Lost Treasure stand out．Pixie Hollow is a charming, visually stunning world basked in lush colors．It's so lovely, so detailed, so

three - dimensional that you almost want to step inside．

Temperature is part of my married romance. Coming to New York from Baltimore--where there is just one small snowstorm each year---I was 36 by a fireplace in my new home, with fires 37 all day, just as what ancient people did at a wedding.

My husband, Peter, comes from northern Ontario, where winter 38 from September to May and cold wind is 39. “When Canadians have 30 below, they 40 it.” He says. “Cold wind is for crybabies.”

So to marry this man I had to learn to 41 for serious cold. To get me from Baltimore’s Inner Harbor to Albany’s frozen Hudson, Peter piled me 42 jackets and sweaters, scarves and gloves, even a hat with earflaps. The gift of Sorel boots—comfortably warm at Canada’s 30 below, was a 43 we were getting serious

That first winter together, living in upstate New York, I thought I’d 44. My boots were good below freezing, but my fingers could 45 tie them. Physical adaptation is real, but it came slowly. And there is also emotional 46 to cold. Some days I tell myself that I have enough beach memories to stick to on 47 days and other days I am reminded that living cold does indeed build 48.

49, having a warm house is important. After my first marriage ended, for years I 50 went on a second date with a man whose response to my “I’m cold.” was, “Put on a sweater.” Now I’m married to a man who 51 that cold hands do not mean a warm heart, and that a big oil bill is better than roses. But surprisingly, I’ve grown, too. I am 52, in this new life and climate, to go and look for that cost-saving sweater.

The word comfortable did not 53 refer to being contented. Its Latin root, comfortare, means to strengthen. The Holy Spirit is Comforter: not to make us comfortable, but to make us 54. We 55 not be warm but we are indeed comforted.

—Who______ it be that is knocking at the door?  

—It ______ be Father, but I’m not sure.

A. can; must                    B. can; may          C. must; can                      D. may; must

There is, for many of us, a moment in life when we make a choice that changes us forever. This moment marks a turning point, when we realize that the life we're living is not a mirror of who we really are.

For some, the moment comes as a result of something dramatic: the sudden loss of a job, or the death of a loved one. For others, they have to deal with difficult situations, such as financial hardship. In these challenging times, it's more critical(关键时刻的) than ever for us to seize the possibility of positive change. As I travel and talk to people about their lives, I often see a distant, vacant look in their eyes -- a look that says “I’m so busy trying to survive my life that no soul left to live it”.

As a result, we end up feeling lonely. Yet we keep on going the way we've been going. We tolerate high levels of stress at work, take important relationships for granted, or put our health needs on hold. We get so caught up in the details of living that our busyness becomes an excuse from the inner voice that begs us to listen. When you finally pay attention to that little voice and begin to make even small changes, you will slowly improve yourself.

To start positive change, you need the power of your mind. I've come up with a five-step strategy that will help you. You will be able to identify what you want and then go after it. It's easier than you might think.

1. Reset your happiness set point. Don't limit yourself! When I decided that I wanted more control over my life, I set goals in physical, emotional, financial, professional, material, and play. I challenged myself to consider every possible choice. Imagine things you've never believed you could achieve. Don't let your past determine your future.

2. Trust your courage. Too often, when you're first learning to take control of your life, you doubt yourself. It's important to develop a strong connection with your inner guidance system. I've heard many stories about the persistent voice inside your head.

3. Take action. Once you have set goals, adjusted your beliefs, and got ready, you can start making things happen. Again, turn to those people you respect -- the ones achieving what you desire -- for support and guidance. They will both inspire you and give you practical advice on what steps you need to take.

4. Have faith. Believe that the positive energy of grace will support your efforts to improve your life. When you've done all you can, let go and trust that the right result will occur. When we have faith, we give up the need to be in control, and we set ourselves up to actually enjoy the process of change.

5. Be patient. This can be the toughest step. It's not easy to trust that your life will improve in a best way. Remind yourself of the benefits of patience. In my experience, those life changes are always worth the wait.
