Psychologists(心理学家) are interested in the reasons why some people like taking part in risky sports.

When they studied people who were learning to jump from a plane with a parachute, they found that the parachutists’ bodies produced large amounts of two hormones(激素), adrenaline(肾上腺素) and noradrenaline(去甲肾上腺素), just before they made their jump. These hormones help to prepare us for any sudden activity. Adrenaline increases the heart beat and provides more sugar for the muscles(肌肉), while noradrenaline makes us react(反应) more quickly. However, noradrenaline also supplies energy to a part of the brain which controls feelings of pleasure. A feeling of pleasure caused by this hormone makes certain people want to take part in dangerous sports.

Another possible reason is the level of excitement in part of the brain. According to some psychologists, the brain tries to manage a certain level of excitement. They believe that people who have a low level of excitement look for new experiences in order to fire themselves with excitement, but people who usually have a high level of excitement try to avoid risks in order not to become overexcited. If the psychologists are right, people with a low excitement level are the ones who enjoy taking part in dangerous sports and activities.

It is thought that people with low levels of excitement have a slower-reacting nervous system than people with higher levels. So it may be possible to find out your level of excitement by testing your nervous system. A quick way of doing this is to put some lemon juice on your tongue(舌头). If you produce a lot of saliva(唾液), your nervous system has been affected(影响) by the lemon and so you probably have a high level of excitement; if you produce little saliva, you probably have a low excitement level. If you have a low level, you might enjoy taking part in risky sports. However, this does not mean that you have to try parachuting!

1.Did the parachutists’ bodies produce large amounts of adrenaline and noradrenaline before they made their jump?

2.What does adrenaline increase and provide?

3.Why do people with a high level of excitement try to avoid risks?

The following are some important reasons why you need to set goals for yourself.

1. Having a goal written down with a set date for accomplishment(完成)gives you something to plan and work for.

2. Most of us have big dreams that seem impossible to accomplish. It's easy to feel disappointed when you're staring at a difficult task. Proper goal setting can help break larger aspirations(愿望)into smaller and more achievable stepping stones.

3. Sometimes, looking back on a goal you set for yourself six months, or one year ago, you realize that you were supposed to accomplish a lot more than you actually did. It's a sign that whatever you're doing isn't working. So you need to make real changes if you want to get where you want to be.

4. There are times when we set goals that don't really show what we want. Sometimes we think we need more money, when we really need a change of environment. By asking ourselves what we really want and continually reconsidering our goals, we can find out what we really want in life.

5. Imagine you're on vacation. Wouldn't you want to find out exactly what you want to see with the limited(有限的)time? In many ways, life is like a vacation. We're given a limited amount of time to pursue the experiences we want and then before you know it, it's time to go. Without a clear sense of what you want to do you'll never be able to live life to the fullest.

A. Goals move you forward.

B. Goals help you live life to the fullest.

C. Goals help you make more money.

D. Goals hold you accountable (对……负责) for failure.

E. Goals tell you what you truly want.

F. Goals help to turn difficult tasks into easy ones.

Why do we need to throw less away? There are two reasons. One is that some resources(资源) are nonrenewable(不可再生的). That means there is only a certain amount of that resource in the world. One example of this is oil. When we use up all the oil in the world, there will be no more.

There is another reason for throwing less away. All of our trash has to be put somewhere. Often, it is put into garbage dumps(垃圾场). Much of that trash will be there for hundreds of years. The dumps will be filled up with all this trash.

There are three ways to cut down on trash.

One way is to recycle. When you recycle something, it means it is made into another shape and used again. Old newspaper may become paper bags. A glass jar can be melted(熔化) and made into a bottle.

Another way to cut down on trash is to reuse things. You can wash and use again a bottle that can hold mustard(芥末酱) or something else.

The third way to cut down on trash is to reduce the amount of trash you make, stop buying thing that you don’t need in the first place. That reduce the amount of the earth’s resources that you use.
