【题目】 Weather has a strong effect(影响)on people. It influences health,intelligence(智力)and feelings.

In August,it is very hot and wet in the southern part of the United States. People there easily have heart trouble and other kinds of health problems during this month. In the Northeast and the Middle West,it is very hot at some times and very cold at other times. Some people in those states will have heart trouble after the weather changes in February or March.

The weather can also influence intelligence. For example,in a 1983 study by scientists,the IQ scores of some college students were very high during a storm,but after the storm,their scores were low. Storms can increase intelligence. Very hot weather,on the other hand,can lower it. Students in many schools of the United States often do badly in exams in the hot months of the year(July and August).

Weather also has a strong influence on people's feelings. Winter may be a bad time for thin people. They usually feel cold during these months. They might feel depressed during cold weather. In hot summer weather,on the other hand,fat people may feel unhappy. There is a "perfect weather" for people's work and health. People feel best at a temperature of about 18℃.

【题目】 I am a karate(空手道)player. I still remember my first karate competition. Like other players,I was very excited about my event. I watched every player's techniques(技巧)so that I could carefully avoid their moves.

Somehow I got into the semifinals(半决赛).In the semifinals,I got injured. I still didn’t give up and got into final. After all,getting the gold medal was my dream.

In the final competition,there were no supporters on my sides,as I was a new face. Instead,the crowd was cheering for my competitor. I could hear only my competitor's name.

I ignored the crowd's cheering. I kept one thing in mind: focus,wait and attack. I had confidence in myself,and I knew that no matter how strong my competitor was,I had to do my best and fight well.

When the time was up,I was leading with a 3-0 score. One thing I learned from that event is,no matter how strong your competitor is,don't think you are weak or strong. Just give your best shot,and you will make your way to success.

Win or lose,you will learn from every step you take.
