1. Relax and Breathe.
Whether it’s a business meeting or the first date, the first thing you must do in order to communicate is to relax. When you relax you are in control. You control your reactions and your reactions do not control you. Breathing is central to relaxation. Take a few deep breaths and your body will begin to be more at ease. This will help you apply what you already know about how to communicate well.
2. Think and you will be prepared.
Have you ever heard the old saying, "think before you speak"? Well, it is true. By thinking ahead about how the conversation might flow, you will be better prepared, more at ease and more confident.
3. Follow the flow of the conversation.
If you are uncomfortable, being silent will only make it worse and make the other person uncomfortable as well. So when all else fails, follow through with small talk until a common topic appears.
A good way to keep a conversation going is to ask the other person questions. People love to talk about themselves and if you do this they will think very highly of you. Learning good communication skills is not something out of reach. If you make an effort, you will succeed.

举一反三
Of course not! You don"t have to suffer needlessly. Your destiny depends on you, not on any other external factors.
I know someone who says she just accepts what life gives her because she has done everything she can to improve it. Guess what her lifestyle is? She wakes up in the morning, goes to work, comes back home, relaxes, chats with people, watches TV, then goes to sleep. Next day, the same routine cycle follows.
Huh! Is this what she calls "doing her best"? She believes she has tried her best and just accepts it in her heart that this is the life that God has intended for her to live; that her luck can only change if God wills it. Of course God wants us to be happy and live our life to the fullest, but we have to do our share of exerting(运用) the effort to live the life of our dreams.
Remember that you reap what you sow. You just don"t sit around and wait for a million dollars to fall from the sky. You have to get off the couch, get your eyes off the TV screen, get your hands off the phone. Don’t expect your luck to change unless you do something about it. If something goes wrong, don"t just regard it as a temporary setback; but use it as feedback. Learn your lesson, make the most of the situation, and do something to solve the problem. It"s not enough to think positively; you also have to act positively.
If someone"s life is in the trouble, do you just hope and pray that things will turn out fine? Of course not! You get to do anything you can to save the person. So it is with your own life. It is not enough to hope for the best, but you have to do your best. In other words, don"t just stand (or sit ) there, do something to improve your life.

A.Doesn"t need improving | B.couldn"t be improved |
C.will be better some day | D.Will be worse in the future |
A.positive | B.satisfying | C.colorful | D.passive |
A.Your temporary problem is not discouraging. |
B.Your luck can be changed by your efforts |
C.You can only achieve success when God wills it. |
D.You should treat yourself in the way you treat friends. |
A.positive action | B.positive thinking | C.hope for the best | D.intention to succeed |
A.understand yourself | B.improve your life |
C.believe in yourself | D.change your normal way |

Some people think we should establish a standard with our kids and give them something for meeting this standard as a reward. Punishment is given out in much the same way, but it’s used when certain standards of performance, behavior, etc. have not been met. Kids will often become more dutiful when threatened with punishment, and work harder when promised a valuable reward. The problem is what happens when you aren’t around.
To develop responsible, self-disciplined kids, parents need to promote certain ideas. One of these ideas is that everyone pitches in and helps in your family. Another idea is that there can be enjoyment in doing any task if we choose to make it so. When a task is for a worthy cause ( our family can enjoy the house more because I helped clean it), this message can have a big impact.
This is how we help our kids develop a sense of responsibility. When our children develop this responsibility, they’ll be more disciplined, and they’ll control their emotions better. When we give rewards to our kids, we reduce the sense of responsibility. We also create children who may temporarily perform to a certain standard, but who aren’t likely to continue the performance without the carrot hanging in front of them.
“Rewards and punishment can change behavior for a while, but they cannot change the person who engages in the behavior,” said Alfie Kohn, author of Punished by Rewards. “Good values have to be grown from the inside out.” Parents can help give their children a sense of shared responsibility and discipline which can last a life time. The real rewards that your children receive will be their readiness for the complex and demanding world that waits for them—a world that rewards those who have learned the secrets of discipline responsibility. So keep those shiny rewarding to yourself, and let your kids find their own rewards.

The ringing of the phone runs through my head, telling me someone needs help. I pick it up and 1 the routine, “Teen Lifeline, this is Amber.” About 45 minutes later I hang up, feeling pleased because I’ve helped another teen. Volunteering at Teen Lifeline has helped me realize how to deal with my own 2 and help others.
“My mom is always fighting with me. I want to run away.” Some teens feel their 3 is a prison, rather than a place of shelter and safety. They feel parents are only there to make their lives 4 . We try to help the teens realize the danger they could be in 5 giving them advice. All we can do is to ask questions. We also try to find out where the teens would go and how they would survive. We give them a phone number if they 6 don’t want to live in their “prison”.
“I don’t want to 7 any more” is something we hear, and suicide (自***) calls are some of the hardest to 8 . We try to discover why they want to take their lives and how serious they are by asking them to rate it on a scale of one to ten. One means they are 9 suicide but haven’t decided how, and ten means they are always thinking about it and have a 10 . We ask them to make a promise that they will not hurt themselves. And sometimes we ask for their telephone numbers 11 we can call back to make sure that they are okay.
Although many calls are about relatively 12 problems, volunteering at Teen Lifeline has helped me realize I’m not the 13 person with problems, and has taught me how to 14 with my heart. I have made a 15 and saved many lives — possibly even my own, too.

The sellers put a paid announcement(付费通告)in a local newspaper. It tells when and where the yard sale will take place. These sales are very popular during weekends in spring, summer, and autumn. Early in the morning, all the things to be sold are carried out of the house. Then they sit all day in the sunlight----like tired guests at a party----waiting for someone to take them home.
Just about anything can be sold at a yard sale. Sometimes, there are more clothes than anything else. Cooking equipment is also popular. So are old toys, tools, books, tables and chairs. Then there are objects called “white elephants”. A white elephant is something you think is extremely ugly or useless. It may be an electric light shaped like a fish. You feel a sharp pain whenever you look at it. To someone else, however, it might be a thing of beauty and joy.
Some people go to yard sales to find a special thing that they collect. It may be old toy trains, for example, or painting of dogs. Experts say more Americans are collecting old things now than ever before. Most people who go to yard sales, however, are not looking for anything special. They might buy an object simply because it costs so little. They enjoy negotiating(谈判) over prices, even if they really do not need the object. Later, they may hold their own yard to sell all the things they have bought.
小题1:What kind of things will go to a yard sale?
A.Cheap and ugly things. | B.Things people no longer use. |
C.Things out of season. | D.Things of great value. |
A.something that can cause a feeling of pain |
B.something disliked by the owners while appreciated by others |
C.something sold at the lowest prices |
D.a toy shaped like a fish |
A.find valuable paintings | B.look for something special |
C.find a bargain | D.kill their time |
A.It may not be held when the weather is very cold. |
B.It can last for a whole day. |
C.It is usually held with a party. |
D.It is held outdoors. |
A.people may find something of great value on a yard sale |
B.yard sales only attract those who have a low income |
C.things on a yard sale can cost people a lot |
D.most people don’t want to go to yard sales. |
