You may think that sailing is a difficult sport, but it is really not hard to learn it. You do not need to be strong. But you need to be quick. And you need to understand a few basic rules about the wind.
First, you must ask yourself, “Where is the wind coming from? Is it coming from ahead or behind or from the side?” You must think about this all the time on the boat. The wind direction tells you what to do with the sail.
Let’s start with the wind blowing from the behind. This means the wind and the boat are going in the same direction. Then you must always keep the sail outside the boat. It should be at a 90° angle (角度) to the boat. Then it will catch the wind best.
If the wind is blowing from the side, it is blowing across the boat. In this case, you must keep the sail half way outside the boat. It should be at a 45° angle to the boat. It needs to be out far enough to catch the wind, but it shouldn’t flap (摆动). It shouldn’t look like on a flagpole. If it is flapping, it is probably out too far, and the boat will slow down.
Sailing into the wind is not possible. If you try, the sail will flap and the boat will stop. You may want to go in that direction. It is possible, but you can’t go in a straight line. You must go first in one direction and then in another. This is called tacking. When you are tacking, you must always keep the sail inside the boat.
1.What should you consider first while sailing?
A.Sailors’ strength. B.Wave levels. C.Wind directions. D.Size of sails.
2.What does the word “It” underlined in Paragraph 4 refer to?
A.The boat. B.The wind. C.The sail. D.The angle.
3.What do you have to do when sailing against the wind?
A.Move in a straight line. B.Allow the sail to flap.
C.Lower the sail. D.Tack the boat.
4.Where can you probably find the text?
A.In a popular magazine. B.In a tourist guidebook.
C.In a physics textbook. D.In an official report.

Just Do It Today, Not Tomorrow
You're about to call your grandma and you figure you’ll call her as soon as you finish your after school snack. But then you decide to catch up on your favorite TV series, and after that you decide to upload the pictures and then..., before you know it, it’s time for bed. And you still haven’t called Gram. Uh-oh.
1.. But is this your day, every day? Are you always dragging your feet until the last minute and then rushing around to get it all done? Then listen up, because we can help you stop putting things off and start getting things done.
1.Get organized---make a list!
Write everything down, and be sure to include when it needs to be completed. 2.. And make it fun--buy a cute notebook just for your to-do lists, and give yourself a happy face sticker every time you complete a task. Or, if you prefer to go digital, try note-taking apps, or just keep your list in the “notes” feature on your phone or pad.
2.Reward yourself.
3.. For smaller jobs, promise yourself one TV series of your favorite YouTube show, or an uninterrupted 15 minutes reading your favorite book. For bigger accomplishments, like finishing up a huge school project, see if your parents will agree to something special, like a sleepover with your two best friends, or “just the two of us” breakfast with mom or dad.
3.4..
When a project seems overwhelming, it’s so easy to come up with an excuse to postpone. So set small goals instead. For example, if you’re studying for a final exam, put each chapter you need to review on your to-do list, and then work on checking off one chapter a night the week before the exam. Thus, you won’t be stuck staying up late trying to cram everything in the night before the test---so not fun.
4.Face your fears.
Sometimes you might put off doing something that you really want to do, like taking tennis lessons. If fear is holding you back, just remember that everyone had to start somewhere. 5.. So stop delaying, and get moving!
With just a few small changes, you’ll be able to get things done on time. So what are waiting for?
A.Once you identify the reason, you can figure out which strategy will help you tackle the task.
B.Just do it.
C.You won’t be a beginner forever, and the longer you put it off, the harder it will be.
D.We all have those days when we just don't get enough done.
E.As you finish the task, put a big check-mark next to it!
F.Break it down.
G.For those things that just aren’t that exciting to do, reward yourself for getting them done.

Think the world loves your selfies as much as you do? Not exactly.
It’s become something of a ritual for many of us. When you’ve binge-watched everything on Netflix and you are tired of online shopping, you head to the bathroom to put on your very best makeup. Your goal is clear; to get the perfect selfie for Facebook, Instagram, Snapchat…or, more likely, all of the above. After perfecting your eyeliner and curling your lashes, you’re ready. You hold up your phone, pout those lips real tight, and in an instant, snap.
But wait, have you ever wondered what’s behind your burning desire to self-document? Most people would say that this is a form of expression or perhaps even a way of boosting their self-esteem. Whatever your reasons may be, the moment you upload that picture, it’s no longer yours to judge. Indeed, you pass over that immense power to the online world.
While you may think that your ever-growing collection of selfies endears people to you, quite the opposite may be true. That is, at least, according to a recent study, conducted by Sarah Diefenbach, a professor at Ludwig-Maximilians-University Munich and published in Frontiers in Psychology. Diefenbach surveyed a total of 238 people in Austria, Germany, and Switzerland to find out how many people regularly take and upload selfies and what they thought when others did the same thing.
Rather unsurprisingly, a massive 77 percent of the people surveyed admitted to being obsessed with regularly taking selfies. What was more interesting, though, was the fact that an astonishing 82 percent of people said that they would rather see other selfies on social media.Diefenbach calls this the “selfies paradox”: the idea that we like taking selfies but seriously dislike looking at other people’s selfies online.
The research didn’t just inquire into whether we want to see selfies, but also looked at how we view our own selfies as opposed to those of others. According to the results, people tend to see the selfies they like as “ self-ironic” and “authentic”, whereas they think that other people’s selfies as “less authentic” and more “self-presentational”.
In short, this research suggests that there is a massive gulf of difference between how we see our own selfies and how we judge other people’s pictures. It suggests that we are comfortable with the selfies we post since we believe they are obviously not serious or vain, but we think everyone else is a total egotist for doing the very same thing.
“This may explain how everybody can take selfies without feeling narcissistic. If most people think like this, then it is no wonder that the world is full of selfies,” explains Diefenbach. So, as illogical as it sounds, this could be why weunashamedly post selfies and then judge other people for doing so. Somehow, we are able to separate our own selfies from the sea of them online and naively think that ours are the only authentic ones.
So, the next time you idly reach for your phone and flick through the filters, consider this: The people around you may not need another carefully planned snap of your face. Instead, you might be better off, giving it a break and calling off the selfie photo shoot today. While you’re at it, make sure you never post these pictures on social media either.
1.Which of the following may not be the reason for people uploading their selfies on the Internet?
A.To show others what kind of persons they are.
B.To be more confident about themselves.
C.To encourage others to make comments on them.
D.To make others like them more.
2.What does the word “paradox”(line 4, paragraph 5) mean?
A.complicated statements B.contradictory statements
C.constructive statements D.complimentary statements
3.According to the passage, what are people’s attitudes towards selfies?
A.They tend to like their own selfies more compared with others’ selfies.
B.They believe that other people’s selfies are much better than their own.
C.They think that other people’s selfies are as genuine as theirs.
D.They sometimes feel ashamed of posting selfies on social media.
