Some people have a kind of magic. They will make you comfortable while they are around. You feel at ease while talking to them. How is it done? Here are several skills that good talkers have. If you follow the skills, they'll help people feel relaxed and make friends with them quickly.

First of all, good talkers ask questions. Almost anyone, no matter how shy he is, will answer a question. One well-known businesswoman says, "At business lunches, I always ask people what they did that morning. It's a common question, but it will get things going." From there you can move on to other matters—sometimes to really personal questions. And how he answers will let you know how far you can go.

Second, once good talkers have asked questions, they listen to the answers. This point seems clear, but it isn't. Your questions should have a point and help to tell what kind of person you are talking to. And to find out, you really have to listen carefully and attentively. Real listening at least means some things. First it means not to change the topic of conversation. If someone insists on one topic, it means he's really interested in it. Real listening also means not just listening to words, but to the voice. If the voice sounds bored, then, it's time for you to change the topic.

Finally, good talkers know well how to deal with the moment of saying good-bye. If you're saying it, you may give him a handshake and say, "I've really enjoyed meeting you." If you want to see that person again, don't keep it a secret. Let people know your thoughts.

1.Asking questions might be a quite good and suitable way ________.

A. for you to make more and more new friends

B. to begin your business talks

C. to get things going

D. for you to make a deep and lasting impression on others

2.After asking somebody a question, it'll be polite of you to ________.

A. agree with what others say all the time

B. listen to his reply attentively

C. wait impatiently for his answer　　　　　

D. go on asking him more questions

3.Generally speaking, good talkers are persons who ________.

A. are not good at making any topic interesting

B. never talk too much or too little

C. always speak in a gentle way

D. know when they should change the topic of the talk

4.If you really want to meet someone again, ________.

A. you may take him as your lifelong true friend

B. it seems necessary for you to let him know it

C. it's proper for you to give him a second handshake

D. it'll be helpful for you to have further understanding of him

Recently a specialist(专家) in teenager studies does some research on teenage problems. He thinks parents shouldn’t be blamed of themselves because there is nothing they can do to deal with the teenage problem. Whatever they do, sometimes a wonderful, kind and helpful child will turn into a terrible animal.

I’ve seen friends deal with it in all kinds of different ways. One strict mother insisted that her son, should stand up, open doors and shake hands like a gentleman whenever anyone entered the room. I saw him last week when I visited them. Lying on the sofa, he made no attempt to turn off the loud TV he was watching as I walked in. His mother was angry. “I don’t know what to do with him these days,” she said. “He’s forgotten all the manners we taught him.”

He hasn’t forgotten them. He’s just decided that he’s not going to use them. She said that she would like to throw him down from the sofa onto the floor.

Another good friend of mine let her two daughters climb all over the furniture, reach across the table, stare at me and say, “I don’t like your dress, it’s ugly.” One of the daughters has recently been driven out of school. The other has left home.

“Where did we go wrong?” Her parents are now very sad. Probably nothing is wrong with the parents.

1.This text is most probably written by________.

A.A specialist in teenager studies

B.a headmaster of a middle school

C.a parent with teenage children

D.a doctor for mental healeh problems

2.This underlined word ”it” in the second paragraph refers to________.

A.the change of the children from good to bad

B.the way that parents often blame themselves

C.the opinion that a child has of his parents

D.the advice that parents want their children to follow

3.The boy on the sofa would most probably be described as ________.

A. lazy                B. quiet

C. unusual            D. rude

4.What is the author’s opinion about the sudden change in teenage children?

A. Parents have no choice but to try to accept it.

B. Parents should pay more attention to the change.

C. Parents should work more closely with school teachers.

D. Parents are a fault for the change in their children.

Many young people all over the world love to travel and see the world. Have you heard of backpackers? They are normally young people who travel cheaply with just one bag and comfortable walking boots. They buy local food in supermarkets to save money and at the same time become friends with local people.

Some people prefer adventure tours. Brave people may try bungee(蹦极) jumping from the bridge overlooking the Victoria Falls in Africa with only a rope around their legs. Some enjoy the challenge of rock climbing in the Alps in Switzerland. Others may go ice skiing in the Rocky Mountains in the USA.

Have you ever heard of an ecotourism (生态旅游)? It means a holiday in which people come close to nature but are very careful not to destroy the nature beauty or living things in the area. How can this be possible? Let's read an interview with people who enjoyed a swimming with dolphins tour.

Interviewer what was the most exciting part of your holiday?

Sharon from South Africa I felt excited when I heard the sound of wild dolphins beside me in the water and then swimming directly under me. An image I will never forget.

Xavier from Portugal There were two dolphins below us swimming downwards. One stopped and looked back at me as if to say “What are those strange things?” Fantastic!

Interviewer Did you feel that your holiday helped local people and areas to keep their beautiful environment?

Jane from New Zealand The hotel and the whale and dolphin watching companies hire local people. They used to hunt those whales and dolphins, but now they can earn money from tourism and mustn’t kill whales and dolphins. Not many boats are used at the same time so these animals aren't disturbed. The boat companies also work to educate the local schools about the importance of protecting these wonderful animals.

Helen from England I am glad they are not killing the whales and dolphins any more, but the cars and boats use fuel(燃料) which could cause pollution and make the sea dirtier.

Well, what do you think? Thousands of people visit the Forbidden City or the Great Wall of China every year. Do you think that's a good thing, or do you feel that China's important tourist attractions can be affected? Are there any ways of sharing your treasures (珍宝) but keeping them in good condition?

1.From the first paragraph, backpackers are young people________.

A. visiting historical places in China

B. traveling cheaply with just one bag

C. who love to travel and see the world alone

D. who love to buy local things as souvenirs

2.What can't you do when you take an ecotourism?

A. Come close to nature in the holiday carefully.

B. Protect the living things in the area.

C. Be careful not to destroy the nature beauty.

D. Keep the local people unhappy.

3.Sharon, Xavier, Jane and Helen think the tours are helpful EXCEPT________.

A. the hotel and the companies hire local people to help them earn money

B. local people used to hunt and kill whales and dolphins but now they don't

C. not many boats are used at the same time so animals aren't disturbed

D. the cars and boats use fuel to cause pollution and make the sea dirtier

4.According to the passage, which of the following is NOT true?

A. It's a cheap and popular way to travel and see the world as a backpacker.

B. We believe an ecotourism can greatly protect the nature beauty and living things.

C. China's tourist attractions can be protected because of being visited by tourists.

D. We’d better find good ways to share our treasures and keep them good.

Computers can injure(伤害)you. Most other injuries happen suddenly．For example，if you fall off a bike and break your arms, it happens very quickly. But computer injuries happen slowly． You probably know how to ride a bike safely. Now learn some ways of keeping you away from computer injuries．

Your eyes

Too much light can injure your eyes, so never sit too close to a computer screen. Your eyes should be more than 50 centimeters from the screen. Don’t forget to look away from it sometimes. This gives your eyes a rest．

When you use a computer, the window should be on your left or your right. If it is behind you, the light will reflect on(反射)the screen. If the window is in front of you，the sun and the screen will both shine into your eyes．

Your hands and wrists(手腕)

Hand and wrist injuries can happen because you move the hands and wrists in the same way hundreds of times. If you use a keyboard for a long time, follow these three rules:

Rest your wrists on something.

Keep your elbows(肘)as high as the keyboard.

Stop sometimes and exercise your hands, wrists and fingers in a different way．

Your back

Some people sit for many hours before a computer. If you sit in the wrong way, you can injure your back or your neck. So you should keep your back straight when you sit. The top part of the screen should be in front of your eyes. Your forearms, wrists, hands and the upper part of your legs should all be parallel(平行)to the floor. If you are sitting for a long time, get up every half an hour and exercise your arms, legs and neck．

Enjoy your computer, but use it safely．
