2) People now have 11 different ways of staying in contact with their friends from the comfort of
their sofa or bedroom.
3) These include simple email, messenger, text and several forms of social networking from Twitter
to Facebook, said the survey by online casino Yazino.
4) It is found even when there is time to see people face to face, like at a weekend, up to 11 percent
of all adults still choose to .
5) This could be down to laziness, the cost of going out or simply not wanting too much personal
contact with friends and family but just enough to swap brief messages and online chats.
6) It all adds up. The average online Brit spends 4.6 hours a week talking to friends online and only
six hours a week talking to people in person, said Yazino.
7) There is even an army of "extreme sofalisers"-the three percent who spend a staggering 25 hours
or more each week talking to friends via electronic devices.
8) The survey of 2, 000 adults also found 11 percent organize all their social diary around Facebook,
Bebo or other network sites.
9) Yazino founder Hussein Chahine said, "Communication is constantly evolving. Some people are as
used to seeing their friends" online image as they are their face."
10) "We are now just as likely to SMS or email a friend as we are to call them."
11) "People increasingly prefer quick and frequent engagement with instant updates on news than a
prolonged chat and are also finding new ways to catch up with friends from their comfort of their sofa."
12) More than seven in ten text their friends and family and 31 percent use social networking sites
while just 27 percent now use email as their primary means of contact.
13) A further 18 percent use live chat and instant messaging systems.

gaps in everyone"s schedule where they aren"t doing anything important. Even if your schedule has
no gaps, there is probably lots of time where you aren"t working as fast or as effectively as you
possibly could.
Why aren"t you completely efficient? It"s because time isn"t the limiting factor. If it were the
limiting factor, people could work non-stop without breaks or any unproductive distractions(消遣).
Instead, people, even those who are highly productive, need to take breaks, occasionally
procrastinate(拖延) and slow down on tasks throughout the day.
The real and most important limiting factor for productivity is your energy levels to pay attention.
Energy levels limit your productivity because when you"re tired, you can have ample time and still
not get everything done. Your attention ability is also limited, because even if there are a million
things that need to be done, you can only focus on one or two at a time.
You might not be able to insert another 4-5 hours into your schedule without making some
sacrifices(牺牲). But even extremely busy people can add an hour or two into their schedule
without cancelling anything. The reason it"s hard to "find time" isn"t a lack of time. It"s because
you don"t have enough energy left to focus on something else that needs to fit into your day.
I first suspected time wasn"t the real problem during an extremely busy period in my life over
a year ago. I was insanely busy, but at that time I still exercised regularly. I had daily to-do lists
with over twenty items, and I still found time to exercise. However, after a few weeks off, due to
illness, I stopped exercising. I was not busy by any standards, in fact, my schedule was incredibly
light. Despite this free time, I found it hard to find time to exercise. It seemed to get pushed later
and later into my schedule until it was gone. How can I explain this odd experience? I believe y
ou have known it.

C. explain how important a healthy body is
D. tell us what an odd experience he has
B. How Can You Work Efficiently?

Acting is such an over-crowded profession that the only advice that should be given to a
young person thinking of going on the stage is "Don"t!". But it is useless to try to discourage
someone who feels that he must act, though the chances of his becoming famous are slim. The
normal way to begin is too to a drama school. Usually only students who show promise and
talent are accepted, and the course lasts two years.
Then the young actor or actress takes up work with a repertory company, usually as an assistant
stage manager. This means doing everything that there is to do in the theatre: painting scenery,
looking after the furniture, taking care of the costumes, and even acting in very small parts. It is
very hard work indeed. The hours are long and the salary is tiny. But young actors with the stage
in their blood are happy, waiting for the chances of working with a better company, or perhaps
in films or television.
Of course, some people have unusual chances which lead to fame and success without this
long and dull training. Connie Pratt, for example, was just an ordinary girl working in a bicycle
factory. A film producer happened to catch sight of her one morning waiting at a bus stop, as he
drove past in his big car. He told the driver to stop, and he got out to speak to the girl. He asked
her if she would like to go to the film studio
to do a test, and at first she thought he was joking. Then she got angry and said she would call the
police. It took the producer twenty minutes to tell Connie that he was serious. Then an appointment
was made for her to go to the studio the next day. The test was successful. They gave her some
necessary lessons and within a few weeks she was playing the leading part opposite one of the
most famous actors of the day. Of
course, she was given a more dramatic name, which is now world-famous. But chances like this
happen once in a blue moon!

vacations,it can be a challenge to find time for learning.But kids" reading skills don"t have to grow cold
once school"s out.Here are some ways to make reading a natural part of their summer fun:
Explore your library.Visit your local library to check out books and magazines that your kids haven"t
seen before.Many libraries have summer reading programs,book clubs,and reading contests for even the
youngest borrowers.With a new library card,a child will feel extra grownup checking out books.
Read on the road.Going on a long car trip?Make sure the back seat is stocked with favorite reads.
When you"re not at the wheel,read the books aloud.Get some audiobooks (many libraries have large
selections) and listen to them together during driving time.
Make your own books.Pick one of your family"s favorite parts of summerwhether it"s baseball,ice
cream,or the pooland have your child draw pictures of it or cut out pictures from magazines.Stick the
pictures onto paper to make a booklet and write text for it.When you"re done,read the book together.
Reread it whenever you like!
Keep in touch.Kids don"t have to go away to write about summer vacation.Even if your family stays
home,they can send postcards to tell friends and relatives about their adventures.Ask a relative to be
your child"s pen pal and encourage them to write each week.
Keep up the reading habits.Even if everything else changes during the summer,keep up the reading
routines around your house.Read with your kids every daywhether it"s just before bedtime or under a
shady tree on a lazy afternoon.And don"t forget to take a book to the beach!Just brush the sand off the

If you are asked to chair a meeting, remember the following six golden rules for meeting management.
1. Always start the meeting on time. If you begin on time, group members who show up late will realize
the value of time. Beginning on time reflects the skill as an effective time manager and sets an example for
others to follow.
2. Select a note-taker or arrange to have the meeting audio-taped .You may need to refer back to an
issue that was discussed during the meeting at a later date. Good record-keeping is a sign of a good meeting manager as well.
3. Learn to listen. So many times we think we are going to say and, in the process, block out important
points that other group members may be contributing. Additionally, we often hear only what we want to hear, rather than really listen to other people. Meetings that are characterized by effective listening are successful
meetings.
4. Keep the discussion on track .Many times important issues can get sidetracked in a meeting, especially when everyone has a different opinion about the topic. If an unexpected conflict develops once the meeting
is in progress, either appoint a subcommittee to look into the problem, or ask the participants involved in the
conflict to meet with you after the meeting. Doing so will help keep the discussion on track and minimize (减少) the chances of wasting participants" time of great value.
5. Give everyone an opportunity to be heard .Some people tend to control meetings, whereas others
wait to be asked their opinions. As the leader of the meeting, you need to keep an open mind and make sure
everyone feels welcome to contribute and express ideas without criticism.
6. End on time. If you said the meeting would last no longer than one hour, make sure the meeting lasts
for only one hour. Running late with a meeting makes members late for other appointments, increases the
chances that the members will mentally leave the meeting and reduces your reliability as an effective meeting
manager.
