As the pace of life continues to increase, we are fast losing the art of relaxation. Once you are in the habit of rushing through life, being on the go from morning till night, it is hard to   36   down. But moderate relaxation is necessary for a healthy mind and body.

Stress is a   37  part of everyday life and there is no way to   38   it. In fact, it is not the bad thing that it is often supposed to be. A certain amount of stress is important to provide motivation and give   39   to life. It is only when the stress gets out of control that it can lead to poor performance and ill health.

The amount of stress a person can bear   40   very much on the individual. Some people are not afraid of stress, and such   41   are obviously chief material for managerial responsibilities. Others lose heart at first   42  of unusual difficulties. When exposed to stress, in whatever form, we react both chemically and physically. In fact we make a choice between   43  and fight. And in more ancient days the choices made the   44   between life and death. The crises we meet today are unlikely to be so extreme, but however little the stress, it requires the same response. It is when such a reaction   45   long, through continued exposure to stress, that health becomes _ 46 . Such serious conditions as high blood pressure and heart diseases have   47   links with stress. Since we cannot remove stress from our lives we need to find ways to deal with it. It would be unwise to do so even if we could.

The Energy Diet

How can I lose weight when every time I go on a diet, I'm so exhausted that I can barely make it through the day? So goes the complaint of many men and women who are concerned about being overweight. What many people don't realize is that a healthful weight-loss plan can actually boost your energy. The key is to eat smart. And then combine this healthful diet with some physical activity. Here are six pointers to get you started.

1.____

Consume too few calories and you'll have less energy, and decrease the amount of calories burned. "That's because one of the ways the body protects itself from starvation is to slow down its metabolism," explains Dr. Donald Hensrud, a nutrition professor at the Mayo Clinic, in Rochester, Minn. So how many calories do you need to feel energized while also slimming down? A healthful weight-loss rate is roughly one-and-a-half pounds per week, and the calorie intake to achieve this depends on your age, weight, and activity level.

2.____

The key to keeping your energy level up when you diet is to eat balanced meals that supply all the nutrients you need. "Vitamins and minerals act like spark plugs," explains Kristine Clark, director of sports nutrition at Pennsylvania State University. "They help release the energy in nutrient-rich food." Try to follow USDA guidelines. They call for 6 to 11 servings per day from the bread, cereal, rice, and pasta group; three to five servings of vegetables; two to four of fruits; two or three of milk or cheese; two or three of meat, fish, or eggs. Avoid fried and creamy dishes, and keep consumption of sweets and desserts to a minimum.

3____

When you go for five to six hours without food, the amount of fuel in your system starts to run low, and you begin to feel tired. Therefore, says Kristine Clark, it's important to eat at regular intervals to keep your energy up. If you exercise, it's important to make sure you have "fuel in the tank" before you head for the gym. Avoid eating a large number of calories at one time, since it's harder to control your total calorie intake, making weight gain more likely.

4____

About 10% of women of childbearing age in the United States are iron deficient. Iron is essential for energy and endurance because it is a vital component of red blood cells, which carry oxygen to working muscles. "Fatigue and listlessness can be directly associated with too little iron," says Frances Berg, a licensed nutritionist in Hettinger, N.D. The best sources of iron are meat, poultry, and some fish. Other sources: fortified cereals, dried beans, dried fruits, and peas.

5____

"I don't have the energy to exercise!" say many dieters. Indeed, a 1998 survey, developed in part by the Center for Sports Medicine at Penn State, found that over 70% of respondents cited "too tired" or "lack of energy" as key reasons to skip exercising. Yet exercise is exactly what these people need. And, lastly, don't try to do too much too soon. Consider breaking your exercise into small units. Instead of trying to do 30 minutes in one chunk, accumulate exercise in short bouts （一场，一回）every day by mowing the lawn, walking to work, or climbing stairs instead of taking an elevator. It won't be long before you reap （收获）the rewards. Imagine carrying a 15-pound sack of groceries around all day. Then think about how much more energy you'd have if you put that sack down.

 

They say money doesn’t grow on trees. But it certainly appears to do so on the mysterious coin-studded(嵌满) trunks dotted around the UK’s woodland. The strange phenomenon of old trees with coins fixed firmly all over their bark has been spotted on trails from the Peak District to the Scottish Highlands. The coins are usually knocked into felled (砍伐的) tree trunks using stones by passers-by, who hope it will bring them good fortune.

These fascinating spectacles often have coins from centuries ago buried deep in their bark and warped by the passage of time. The tradition of making offerings to gods at wishing trees dates back hundreds of years, but this combination of the man-made and the natural is far more rare. It used to be believed that god’s spirits lived in trees, and they were often decorated with sweets and gifts — as is still done today at Christmas. The act is like tossing money into ponds for good luck, or the trend for couples to attach “love padlocks” to bridges and fences to symbolize lasting romance. Some pubs, such as the Punch Bowl in Askham, Cumbria, have old timbers with splits in them into which coins are forced for luck. There are seven felled tree trunks with coins pushed into them in the picturesque village of Portmeirion, in Wales.

Meurig Jones, an estate manager at the tourist destination, told the BBC, “We had no idea why it was being done when we first noticed the tree trunk was being filled with coins. I did some detective work and discovered that trees were sometimes used as ‘wishing trees’. In Britain it dates back to the 1700s — there is one tree somewhere in Scotland which apparently has an old coin stuck into it. ” He said that a sick person could press a coin into a tree and their illness would go away. If someone then takes the coin out though, it’s said they then become ill. We haven’t made it known at all, it’s just happened,” he added. “It’s quite amazing really.” In Scotland, there is also a legend about a kissing tree. If a young man could drive a nail into a tree with one blow, he earned a kiss from his sweetheart.

1.What was the real reason why in UK people knocked coins into the old trees?

A．It was hoped that it would bring them good future and make the trees more beautiful.

B．Nobody knew why there was such a strange custom that it could make them lucky.

C．It might come from the tradition of making offerings to gods hundreds of years ago.

D．It was said that god’s spirits lived in trees and doing so could please the gods of the trees.

2.The underlined part in Paragraph 2 may mean ____________.

A．this combination of the man-made and the natural is far from realistic.

B．the mysterious phenomenon of old trees with coins is rarely seen in the world.

C．people wanted to make the works of art with the help from the forces of nature.

D．the appearance of trees would be nicer than their original.

3.The passage mainly tells us that________.

A．some people attached “love padlocks” to bridges and fences to symbolize lasting romance

B．a particular way in which people made good wishes is still popular in the UK

C．visitors tossed money into ponds for good luck just as they knocked coins into the trees

D．a long history of a strange phenomenon of old trees with coins in the UK

4.Which of the following can be used as the best title for the passage?

A．Who Says Money Doesn’t Grow on Trees?

B．Do Trees with Some Coins Become Valuable?

C．Is It Really Amazing to Have Coins Fixed into Trees?

D．What Is the Purpose of Knocking Coins into Trees?

 

Bedfordshire had its fair share of royal visits from the early stages of the 10th Century onwards and the importance that the county placed on this is evident in the monuments, country houses, churches and any number of other structures that are still present there to this day. Bedford Castle is one of those structures and, although it is nowhere near its former glory today, it is an essential attraction to visit if you really want to grasp what its heritage means to the county!

Bedford Castle was built initially as a fortress to help protect Bedfordshire on the south of the River Ouse after the people in the local towns and villages had already been subdued. It was erected in 919 on the orders of King Edward the Elder, although it was destroyed by a Danish invasion years later. This was when it was rebuilt as the castle, of which the ruins exist today!

There is a long history behind the castle that involves several kings as a result of the Duke of Bedford being an ardent royalist. Bedford Castle repeatedly offered the kings of England refuge against various storms in the form of onslaughts from abroad and various domestic threats against them, and this is where much of its fame lies, even though the castle itself is no longer there. There are various tours of the ruins that you can take when you visit though and all of the guides are extremely knowledgeable. They will happily tell you tales of the mound and the castle that preceded it.

The mound is open to the public all year round and is a proud part of the area’s heritage. It is recommended by the majority of people that visit Bedfordshire because it tells you much about why the county is currently how it is. You can view the river from the mound and the surrounding settlements as well as the remains of the castle, and every moment spent there is worth it so enjoy the history and the very nature of the county itself!

In one way of thinking, failure is a part of life. In another way, failure may be a way towards success. The “spider story” is often told. Robert Bruce, leader of the Scots in the 13th century, was hiding in a cave from the English. He watched a spider spinning a web（蜘蛛织网）. The spider tried to reach across a rough place in the rock. He tried six times without success. On the seventh time he made it and went on to spin his web. Bruce is said to have taken heart and to have gone on to defeat the English… Edison, the inventor of the light bulb, made hundreds of models that failed before he found the right way to make one.

So what? First, always think about your failure. What caused it? Were conditions right? Were you in top from yourself? What can you change so things will go right next time?

Second, is the goal you’re trying to reach the right one? Try to do some thinking about what your real goals may be. Think about his question, “If I do succeed in this, where will it get me?” This may help you prevent failure in things you shouldn’t be doing anyway.

The third thing to bear in mind about failure is that it’s a part of life. Learn to “live with yourself” even though you may have failed. Remember, “You can’t win them all.”

A．to think about the cause of your failure

B．to check out whether your goals are right for you
