There is a famous English saying“You are what you eat”,and it means what you put in your mouth will become part of you.Many experts(专家)useitto tell people it’s important to have a good eating habit.For example,too much sweet food makes a person overweight.To avoid being fat,kids are told to keep off sweet food.However,a team of American scientists have discovered something new about eating sweet food.
“When we say some people‘sweet’,we mean they are kind and friendly to us.Perhaps this word can help us learn more about people’s feelings and acts,”said Brian Meier,a scientist from the study team.“Taste is something we experience every day.What we have done is to find whether we can know someone’s character and behavior depending on their taste.”
In one of their experiments,college students were asked questions about their character—whether,for example,they were soft-hearted or not.Then they were asked to make a list of their favorite food.According to their answers,the scientists found that the students who liked sweet food were nicer.
In their another experiment,the scientists found that people who preferred sweet food such as cookies and chocolate were more willing to help other people in need,and those who ate non-sweet food such as chips weren’t.For example,people with a sweet tooth were more likely to volunteer to clean up their city,visit sick children in the hospital and so on.
The result of the experiments is that people’s helpfulness or being nice has something to do with their taste for sweet food.So eating sweet food is a useful way to make people nice and helpful.Next time,try some ice cream.

25、 Two little boys Carl and Philip were playing one day when a Fairy (仙女)appeared and handed each of them a New Year present. They opened the packages and found two beautiful books, with pages as white as the snow.
A year passed and the Fairy came again to the boys.
The Fairy: I have brought you new books and will take the old ones back to Father Time.
Philip: May I keep my book a little longer? I haven’t read it lately.
The Fairy: No, I must take it back.
Carl: I wish that I could look through my book just one more time. I can only read one page at a time, because when I turn the page it sticks and I can never open the book again that day.
The Fairy: Maybe you should check your books. She lit two little candles for them. To their great surprise, on one page there were ugly, black spots (黑点)while the very next page showed a lovely little picture. Even on the most beautiful pages there were ugly spots too.
Carl and Philip: Who did this? Every page was as white as snow when we first opened it, but now they are full of spots!
The Fairy: See, Philip, the roses appeared on this page when you shared your toys with the baby; and this pretty bird would never be on here if you were not kind the other day.
Philip: But what makes these spots?
The Fairy: That came when you told a lie one day, and this when you did not listen to Mom. All these spots that look so ugly in your books were made when you were naughty (淘气的).Each pretty thing in your books came on its page when you were good.
Carl and Philip: Oh, I wish we could have the books again!
The Fairy: That cannot happen. They must now go back into Father Time’s bookcase, but I have brought you each a new one. Perhaps you can make these more beautiful than the others. With these words, she disappeared, and the boys were left alone, but each held in his hand a new book open. And on the cover of this book was written in letters of gold, "FOR THE NEW YEAR".

26、Assertiveness is the ability to confidently express your opinions, feelings, attitudes, and rights, in a way that doesn't infringe(侵犯)the rights of others.
Many of us are taught that it is not nice to consider our own needs above those of others. If someone says or does something that we don't like, we should just be quiet and try to stay away from that person in the future.
Why is Assertiveness important?
If you don't know how to be assertive, you might experience:
Depression—Anger, a sense of being helpless, hopeless, or of having no control over your life.
Resentment—Anger at others for taking advantage of you.
Frustration —Why did I allow that to happen?
Most people find it easier to be assertive in some situations than in others. This makes perfect sense. It's a lot easier to hold your ground with a stranger than with someone you love. But the more important the relationship is to you, the more important it is to be assertive. Assertive behavior leads to increased respect from others!
But before you decide to act assertively, you have to decide if you can live with the results. Although assertive behavior usually will result in a positive response (积极的回应),some people might react differently.
How to be effectively(有效地) assertive:
Use "I" statements. Keep the focus on the problem you're having. "I'd like to be able to tell my stories without interruption." instead of "You're always interrupting my stories!”
Use facts, not opinions. "Did you know that shirt has a hole?" instead of "You're not going out looking like THAT, are you?"
Express ownership of your thoughts, feelings, and opinions. "I get angry when he breaks his promises. "instead of "He makes me angry. "
Make clear and direct requirements. Don't invite the person to say no. "Will you please?" instead of "Would you mind…?" or "Why don't you…?"
Keep repeating your point. Use a low level and pleasant voice. Don't try to explain yourself.
【1】The writer probably agrees that— .
A.assertive behavior will bring you bad feelings
B.you should be assertive if you want to get good marks
C.assertiveness is the ability to infringe others' rights
D.you should consider others' response before you act assertively
【2】The expression "hold your ground" probably means “ ”.
A.insist on your point
B.keep your word
C.reach an agreement
D.keep on fighting
【3】Which of the following helps you to be effectively assertive?
A.Explaining yourself in a soft and sweet voice.
B.Making requirements directly and clearly.
C.Using your opinions instead of facts.
D.Expressing ownership of others' thoughts.

My name is Jackson. I'm a great reader with good memory. I rememberalmost everything I read. But I don't like to speak in class. When Mr.Knoll announced an oral book report, the idea of going up and having myclassmates staring at me while I talked filled me with anxiety.
As for the date, if the book report was due in two weeks, I would do itright then. Mr. Knoll, though, gave us a month to get the report ready, so Ithought I had plenty of time.

However, I had no ideahow the book ended. I really didn't know what came over me. I made up the rest of the story on the spot.The class loved it, and applauded as I finished.
At break time, Mr. Knoll called me over. "You know, Jackson, I don't really remember the book
ending that way."
I gulped(倒吸气).
"You told a pretty good story,”he continued. "The assignment was an oral book report. You did a great job on the oral part’
"Uh, thanks," I said.
"When you actually finish Fire-Hunter, please come to me and give me the book report’
"Yes, I definitely will," I said. I knew I would never make that mistake again.

29、 Cold weather during winter months may stop many people from _______home and running in the open air. But a new study shows _______ the drop in temperature is a good reason to run. In fact, researchers say, running in cold weather _______ improve one's performance (性能). Many people say running in _______ winter is difficult. Two reasons are the low temperatures and strong winds. Yet many runners might find _______ easier than running in hot weather. That could be because lower temperatures reduce stress on the body.
When you run in cold weather, your heart rate is _______ than in warmer conditions. Besides, the body needs less water _______ a cold day than in warm weather. This information comes from John Brewer, a sports scientist at St. Mary's University in London. Brewer says every movement runners make produces heat. He explains that one way in which we lose heat is by sweating, and that the body loses heat by transporting the blood to the surface of the skin. But sweating puts much strain (张力) on the heart, particularly in hot conditions because it is _______ harder to lose heat when the external environment is warm as well.
In addition, running in higher temperatures results in faster heart rates. Scientists find that heart rates are about 6 percent higher in the hotter conditions. _______, running in cooler temperatures has some advantages. One is that the body does not have to work so hard to pump (输送) blood to the skins surface in cooler temperatures, which means running requires less energy. Several websites note that the most important thing for people ________ run in cold conditions is to wear the right clothing. And especially, keeping as dry as possible is very important when exercising in low temperatures.
