21、Dear Mike,
Help! I’m a 15-year-old high school student in New York. In eight months, I’m going to take an important exam. To prepare for it, I'm studying six hours a day. I want to do well, but I’m really upset these days. I can’t sleep. What can I do?
Yours,
Alice
Dear Alice,
Many students around the world have the same problem as you. Here is some advice to help you deal with the stress(压力). Good luck!
1. Make a study plan for yourself, but don’t study too much in one day. Remember, studying one hour each day for six days better than six hours in one day. Also, don't study late at night.
2. Have a rest for 15 to 20 minutes every two hours. Go out and take a walk. Doing exercise is a great way to reduce stress.
3. Don’t eat or drink a lot of sugar(糖)or drink a lot of coffee. Eat foods high in vitamin(维生素)B(for example, eggs, milk, green vegetables and rice). These give you energy and help you think more clearly.
4. When you’re worried about the exam, you can talk to your friends. This can reduce stress, too.
Yours,
Mike

23、The idea of life in outer space has been talked about for a long time. Some scientists say that life development on Earth was far too unlikely for it to have happened anywhere else. Things had to be perfect for us to make it on this planet.
Other scientists say that space is too big. Stars and other planets are far too numerous for there to be no other life in the universe.
For many years, there have been reports of visitors from other planets. People all around the world have claimed to see alien spaceships or even aliens themselves.
There have been glimpses of these so-called UFOs (unidentified flying objects) flying through the air and they have even ben captured on video. Some Americans believe that the U.S. Army found an alien spaceship crashed in the desert and then lied to the press about it. Although these sightings may be true, scientists have not found significant evidence that aliens exist.
If you go out into the countryside on a clear night and look up, you can see thousands of stars. Those stars make up a tiny part of our universe. There are more stars, planets, and galaxies than we can count. Even the smartest scientists can’t even come close to defining how big space is. The number of possible stars and planets out there is bigger than our ability to count. If we are really on the only planet that can sustain life, then we are very special in a universe full of amazing things.

25、 It may not be hard to name the most popular girl or boy at school. But have you ever wondered what m【1】 them popular? Is it about wearing the latest fashion or being in the basketball t【2】?
According to (根据) an Australian study, the secret to being p【3】 at school, is neither of those things. I【4】, it is empathy (感同身受), or understanding and s【5】 others’ feelings.
Popular children are “b【6】 at knowing what others want, think and f【7】”, according to the study. The study included 2,096 children f【8】 2 to 10 years old from Asia, Australia, Europe, and North America.
“Our study shows that understanding o【9】 feelings can help children become or keep popular”, wrote Virginia Slaughter, professor (教授) of psychology at the University of Queensland, who led the study. “It means empathy is important both for making friends in the early school years and for keeping friendships as children g【10】 older”.
