25、阅读理解。
On the first day of school our teacher introduced himself and challenged us to get to know someone we didn’t already know. I stood up to look around when a gentle hand touched my shoulder.
I turned around to find a little old lady with a warm smile. She said, “Hi, handsome. My name is Rose. I’m eighty-seven years old.”
“Why are you in university at such a YOUNG age?” I asked. She replied, “I’m here to meet a rich husband, get married, have a couple of kids, and then retire and travel.”
I knew she was joking. I was curious what might have encouraged her to be taking on this challenge at her age.
“I always dreamed of having a university education and now I’m getting one!” she told me. We became friends. Every day we would talk nonstop after class. I always enjoyed listening to this “time machine” as she shared her wisdom and experience with me. And Rose easily made friends wherever she went.
At the end of the term we invited Rose to make a little speech. She cleared her throat(喉咙) and began, “We do not stop playing because we are old; we grow old because we stop playing. I’ve learned a few secrets to staying young, being happy, and achieving success. You have to laugh and find humor every day. You’ve got to have a dream. When you lose your dreams, you die.”
“There is a huge difference between growing older and growing up. Anybody can grow older.Thatdoesn’t take any talent or ability. The idea is to grow up by always finding the opportunity(机会) in change...”

26、 Making good conversation with a stranger can be difficult. Here are some ways to try if you don’t know what to do Talk about a topic common to both of you. The topic can be the food or the weather. For example, “How do you like the food?” But keep it on the positive side! The first time you meet a person isn’t a good time to complain.
Ask open questions that can’t be answered with one word. “What’s keeping you busy these days?” is a good question if you are talking to a person who doesn’t have an office job.
Ask a follow-up (接下来的) question if you have asked a question that can be answered with one word. For example, if you ask, “Where are you from?”, an interesting follow-up question might be, “What would your life be like if you still lived there?”
Ask getting-to-know-you questions. You can ask, “What are your favourite newspapers and magazines? What websites do you often visit?” These questions often show a hidden interest, which can help you go on with a great conversation.
React (作出反应) to what a person is saying. If you are trying to make the conversation interesting, but the person never reacts, you will feel unhappy. So, if the person tells a joke, even if it’s not funny, try to laugh. And if he offers some surprising information, react with surprise.

27、Communicating with Our Hands
We use our hands to communicate in many ways. The thumbs up sign shows agreement. A wave of the hand can be a gesture to mean hello. Many people make an “O” with their thumb and second finger to show that everything is OK.
While riding a bike, people use hand signals (信号) to communicate that they are going to turn left, or stop. Policemen wave traffic on or hold their hands up to direct drivers to stop. In classrooms, children often put up their hands for permission (许可), people clap their hands to show appreciation (赞赏) for a performance.
Some people use sign language (a system of hand gestures, facial expressions and body language) as their primary form of communication. Deaf people communicate through a system of sign language. Like different verbal (口头的) languages are spoken around the world (促进) communication and education of deaf people.
It has become common for parents to teach signs to little children. Babies can actually imitate (模仿) and use signs before they can speak clearly. This helps parents get to know what a child is in need of before the child is able to communicate his or her needs verbally (口头地).
Just as people study more spoken languages, an increasing number of people are choosing to study sign language in their free time. Each year, thousands of people learn sign language so they can more easily communicate with deaf people. Many companies are looking for workers with the ability to communicate through sign language. Many people learn sign language simply because they find it interesting and enjoy the challenge of learning a new skill. Sign language is growing in usage every day.

28、 If you can only do one thing in the US, you should watch a Broadway show.
Have you seen The Lion King? In the movie, Simba, Zabu, Pumbaa and Timon tell a story about love, 【1】[ˈhæpɪnɪs] and responsibility (责任) in Africa. Can you 【2】(想象) this wild movie performed on stage? I didn’t believe it 【3】 I saw the show.
