26、It was past midnight when I saw an email that told me that I had been accepted into Interna-tional Summer School at Oslo University, Norway. I woke up everyone at home to tell them that I would be one often five hundred students visiting this beautiful Scandinavian country for ten weeks on a full scholarship (奖学金). My parents were delighted but anxious about how I’d manage on my own in a foreign land for the first time.
The day I left the county was packed with excitement and nervousness. I slept through the long flight and woke up to the announcement that we had come to Oslo Airport. Now, if I were in India, I would have taken a taxi to my destination, but my online research had taught me that in Oslo, tak-ing a taxi would be considered as a wasteful way. So I took the subway to the university. Upon my arrival, I was told that my room had been arranged and my roommate had settled in. My roommate was a Chinese student, who became my first friend. Though it was sunny outside, I was tired. I re-alized it was close to midnight. Sunsets during summer are very late in Norway.
I was to study a course on International Development and the class had students from 20 different countries, I worked with my classmates on group projects. Team work brought us closer as a u-nit. We realized we shared similar dreams about our future. Oslo is a city that has an excellent pub-lic transport system. One can get to a sandy beach ora forest within minutes. In our free time, we went for hikes and I realized how much I loved being outdoors. I learnt to read maps and picked up Norwegian. The hardest part was getting used to eating dinner at 5:00 pm.
I grew up and into myself during this trip. I came back to my hometown with a bagful of happy memories including my new friends who had helped me and walked with me in this beautiful country.

27、Some Festivals Around the World
Dia de los Muertos(Mexico)
Beginning at the midnight of October 31 and lasting through November 2, it is a festival when families gather together to remember those loved ones who have died. To honor the deceased, Mexican families prepare private altars (祭坛) in their homes. On top of them they’ll put photos of the dead and their favorite food. They also visit the graves of their beloved ones and place offerings there to pay their respects to the dead.
Holi(India)
Holi, popularly known as “the festival of colors”, is an ancient Hindu festival which signifies the end of winter and the victory of good over evil.
During the festival, people wet each other with water balloons and water guns, then they throw color powder on one another. There are also marching bands, dancing, food and drink, and much laughter. A great number of people are infected by its playful and childlike atmosphere.
La Tomatina(Spain)
As a big food fight, it is possibly the most chaotic (混乱的) festival.
According to records, the festival dates back to a parade in which some naughty teenagers knocked one performer off his stilts (高跷) and caused a fight of throwing vegetables accidentally. It was once banned until 1957 when the locals held a protest (抗议)with a mock funeral. They carried a coffin containing a huge tomato as bands played a funeral march. Finally, in the decades since, La Tomatina has become a popular event which attracts lots of tourists to have fun.
If you happen to join the event, be aware that you squash (压软) the tomato before throwing it. Have a great time but avoid causing any injury.

28、 New arrivals to China often get the impression that Chinese people spend all of their time working. Yet，people in China devote quite a bit of time to leisure（休闲）.
Surprisingly，the Chinese love to relax. They love to spend their time taking care of flowers，raising birds and other pets. Chinese people are also fond of leisurely games，like the Chinese game Mahjong. The Chinese also love to play cards to pass the time. It is a national sport almost as widespread as petanque in France.
The Chinese have many ways to idle（休闲），including gossiping or chitchat，which is seen as a true art. Taking a walk and doing some light reading are also considered as idleness. If a person does all of these things，they are definitely an idler.
Busy people should also have free time. When at work，Chinese people often say that they need to “steal some time” from work.
Taoism（道教）teaches that people should improve moral character through relaxation，and be happy to lead a simple and honest life. This is why Chinese people believe so strongly in enjoying a carefree and relaxed life.
Poet Tao Yuanming set up a way of life that emphasizes a balanced country life. In a sense，his way is both earthy and spiritual. It has given us a way to be relaxed and well，while being balanced and carefree.
In China，having a life that is too full is not a sign of wisdom. It is only when things are empty that they can be filled. Hopefully，this information will remind people to rest a little and make room for free time in a busy life.

29、 People who are cheerful and relaxed are less likely to suffer from colds.It's possible that being full of vim and vigor helps the body fight illnesses,say the researchers from Carnegie Mellon University(CMC)in Pittsburgh.
＂We need to take more seriously the possibility that a positive emotional style is a major player in disease risk,"says psychologist Sheldon Cohen,the study's lead researcher.
In a previous study,Cohen and his colleagues found that people who tended to be cheerful and lively were least likely to develop sniffles,coughs and other cold symptoms.People who showed positive feelings were also less likely to mention symptoms to their doctors,even when medical tests detected those symptoms.
Those findings were interesting,but they didn't prove that a person's attitude affects whether he or she gets sick.Instead,it was still possible that a person's underlying personality is what matters.
Evidence suggests,for instance,that certain people are naturally more likely to be outgoing and optimistic,with high self-esteem and a sense of control over life.This would mean that who we are,not how we feel,ultimately decides our chances of catching colds.
To figure out which mattered more,personality or emotions,the researchers interviewed 193 healthy adults.The researchers talked to each person over the phone every evening for 2 weeks. They told the researchers about the positive and negative feelings they had experienced that day.
The results showed that everyone in the study was equally likely to get infected.Their symptoms,however,differed depending on the types of emotions that they had reported over the previous fortnight.
Among those who reported good moods and had been infected with the flu virus,for example, 28 percent developed coughs and stuffy noses.On the other hand,those symptoms struck 41 percent of people who had been less positive.Scientists argue about whether negative emotions or positive emotions have a stronger effect on how healthy we are.For now,it can't hurt to look on the bright side more often than not!
【1】What is the text mainly about?
A.How to get rid of colds.
B.Attitude determines life.
C.Smiles turn away colds.
D.Different opinions about colds.
【2】The phrase"full of vim and vigor"underlined in Paragraph 1 probably means"
A.ignorant B.well-informed
C.energetic D.passive
【3】According to the finding,a leading factor of catching colds should be one's.
A.health B.personality
C.quality D.mood
【4】By saying the last paragraph,the writer intends to suggest
A.the saying-every coin has two sides
B.positive emotions are as good as negative emotions
C.it is not necessarily good for you if you always look at problems positively
D.it will be good for your health to always keep up an optimistic state of mind
