24、The weather is getting hotter. You are thirsty playing basketball or riding home from school. A cold drink may  be just the thing. But be careful what you are drinking. Something that looks cool may not be good for your health.

There are plenty of "energy drinks" on the market. Most of them have beautiful colors and cool names. The lists on them tell you they are helpful to your health. Sounds great!

But after a careful check you may find that most energy drinks have lots of caffeine (咖啡因) in them. These drinks are especially aimed at young people, students, busy people and sports players. Makers sometimes say their drinks make you better at sports and can keep you awake. But be careful not to drink too much.

Caffeine makes your heart beat fast. Because of this, the International Olympic Committee has limited( 限制) its use. Caffeine in most energy drinks is at least as strong as that in a cup of coffee or tea. Possible health dangers have something to do with energy drinks. Just one box of energy drink can make you nervous, have difficulty sleeping and can even cause heart problems.

25、It can’t be truer that when in Rome do as the Romans do. So it’s important for you to know what you can talk with the local people in other countries.

In France

You’ll find that conversations often turn into heated discussions. You’d better give opinions only on subjects that you are knowledgeable about. There is seldom a moment of silence, except when the topic under discussion has been finished, and nothing new has been introduced.

Food, art, music and current events or history are welcome topics. The French believe in freedom, and you can criticize(批评) anyone, but not Napoleon, who is a symbol of French spirit and never use the conversation opener “What do you do?”.

In Australia

Australians are excited about discussions. Many topics may be open to discussion, such as religion and politics. The best way, however, is to wait for Australians to bring up these two subjects; be prepared to listen to what they are talking about.

Australians like to criticize themselves, but they can’t stand being criticized by others. Don’t talk big. Instead, Australians prefer to judge(判断) your abilities through your actions. People who show off their education in conversation may be laughed at.

In Switzerland

The Swiss may seem cold. Once you get close to them, however, you’ll find that they are honest, responsible people, who will respect your interests much.

They are good listeners and will remember almost everything you say to them. Sometimes they will even take notes while you speak. The Swiss are very private people, so you should avoid asking personal questions. They can be rather serious, so it is advisable to avoid making jokes on them.

In the desert , a voice was saying: “I finally found something to do.”

29、完形填空

For this month’s Young World  magazine, I interviewed 19-year-old   pop star Candy Wang. Candy told me that she used to be really shy and took up singing to deal with her . As she got better, she dared to sing in front of her class, and then for the whole school. Now she’s not shy any more and singing in front of crowds.

I asked Candy how life was different    she became famous. She explained that there are many good things, like being able to travel and meet new people all the time. “I didn’t use to be popular in school, but now I get tons of   everywhere I go.” However, too much attention can also be a bad thing. “I always have to worry about how I appear to others and I have to be very careful about what to say or do. And I don’t have much private time anymore. Hanging out with friends is almost    for me now because there are always guards around me.”

What does Candy have to say to all those young people who want to become famous? “Well,” she begins slowly, “you have to be prepared to your normal life. You can never imagine how   the road to success is. Many times I thought about giving up,   I fought on. You really require a lot of talent and hard work to succeed. Only   people make it to the top.
