【题目】 Communication is important for strong family relationships. However, if you don't truly listen to others, it can be difficult to communicate. Working on the following listening skills can help you communicate better.

Listening Actively

Focus on the speaker's words and not what you'll say next. When listening to a family member, pay attention to what's being said. When talking to someone, pay attention to the speaker and his thoughts, you can think of how you will reply later.

Make sure the speaker has finished talking before you talk. Instead of starting your reply at once, a couple of seconds of silence is not a bad thing.

Communicating Effectively (有效的)

Retell what has been said. Try to briefly conclude what you have heard when the speaker finishes. It will really show you're listening and allow you and your family to communicate better.

Reflect (思考,回顾) on what's been said. After talking, reflect briefly on the subject. Try to work out not just what's being said, but also why it is important.

Accept you don't always have to solve someone's problems.

Avoiding Negative Habits

Do not cut in on others. Interrupting (打断) can break effective conversation. Do not start talking until the other person has finished.

Stop from offering advice. Unless you are asked, do not offer advice. Offering advice can make it seem like you're not really listening but to hear what you want.

Do not change the subject early. Never change the subject before the speaker has got their words out, even if a subject makes you bored.

Avoid hurrying the speaker. Never say words like, "Can you get to the point?" This will make it seem like you're not interested in the conversation.

Dear Aunt Carla,

I'm having a problem with my classmate, Joan, at school. The other day I wrote an email to another classmate, Beth, in which I said something about Joan that perhaps wasn't very nice. Unluckily, when Beth was writing back to me, she sent it to Joan@163.com, which is Joan's email address! Now Joan is really angry with me and won't talk to me, and Beth is unhappy as well. She has said sorry to me a hundred times already, but the harm is done. I feel bad, because I would never have said those things to Joan's face, but how do I get her to forgive me? What should I do?

Dear Steve,

This problem is more common than you might think! Email is very useful, but also very dangerous, as you don't know where your message might end up! First of all, you should say sorry right away to Joan. Explain that it was a mistake, and that you didn't mean to hurt her feelings. It may take time for her to be able to forgive you, but that's up to her. Then you might want to do something nice for her. Perhaps send her some flowers to show that you're truly sorry. Also, you should remember that old saying: "If you don't have anything nice to say, don't say anything at all." And good luck!

Carla

【题目】 What makes Australia different? First, if you are traveling from Southeast Asia, you will cover about 4,500 miles (7,240 km). If you are from the Americas or South Africa, you will cover about 9000 miles (14,500 km). If you come from Europe, you will have to travel about 10,500 miles (17,000 km). It is not just a quick crossing by boat, or a walk over a bridge. It is a long way to “Down Under”. So there are surely to be cultural as well as geographical differences.

And then there is the size of it. It’s a long way from one side to the other. Perth, the capital of Western Australia, is the most isolated (孤立的) city in the world. It is closer to Singapore than to Sydney, which is about 1, 900 miles (3,000 km) away.

Most countries have probably had population growth, with much the same racial mix, for hundreds of years. Apart, of course, from the Aborigines (土著), who have been there for over 50,000 years, Australians have not been there long. The first Europeans came and lived just over 200 years ago. Most other foreigners arrived less than 50 years ago. Australia’s population has doubled since 1957, transforming what was perhaps one of the most boring nations to one of the most exciting, with many interesting differences of culture and custom.

Australians are generally warm-hearted and open. Perhaps they have taken the best from other foreign cultures, mixing them with the best of Aboriginal and early foreign cultures. Australians are also humorous. You are expected to be the same. It is said in Australia that all visitors must be able to take a joke. Learn to laugh at yourself, your country, and so on. And if you really want to be a social hit, tell jokes about yourself, your country, and the way you speak. There is almost nothing that cannot be laughed at. The important things in life such as traditions (like public festivals) are taken very lightly. Sport, however, is taken very seriously!

Today, Australia has one of the world’s highest standards of living, fine food and wine, a great sporting tradition, a colorful and high culture, and an affection for visitors.

1How far will visitors travel from Europe to Australia?

2Which is closer to Perth, Singapore or Sydney?

3When did the first Europeans come to Australia?

4What is Paragraph 3 mainly about?

5According to Paragraph 4, what are Australians like?
