of Bangladeshi women has transformed her life.
Food Aid Brings Fresh Water To Nepalese Village
Kanukura, 33, says that carrying water up the mountain slopes to her village used to be the hardest
part of her day. It"s a job that mainly fell to women in this part of Nepal, who faced a difficult and tiring

like Kanukura can get clean drinking water whenever they need it.

a year off, here are some practical tips to prepare yourself for the journey.
Going to College
Some people know from an early age exactly what they want to be and how they plan to get there.
2 According to a recent survey, 75% of students change their majors after they enter college. After all,
school is also not just about careers and getting a high-paying job after graduation - it"s a place for learning about yourself and the world.
Selecting a School
If college is in your future, you need to plan. Start by asking yourself questions about your preferences. 3 Once you"ve narrowed down your choices, ask the schools to send you literature or visit their
websites.
Getting a Job
Maybe you"ve decided that college isn"t for you - right now, anyway. If you want to join the
workforce, opportunities are out there for people who don"t have degrees. Some products-selling or
service industry organizations offer training programs to high school graduates. Search the classified ads
in the newspaper and do some Internet research. 4
Taking Time Off
What if you intend to go to college but just don"t feel ready to start yet, for whatever reason? _5
This practice is common in some countries, like the United Kingdom, where it"s called a "gap year". Even
if you decide not to apply to college, it can be a great idea to take a year to do something you may not
have an opportunity to do again. Lots of volunteer organizations would welcome your time and energy
and would provide you with a wonderful learning experience.
B. You might want to take a year off to pause.
C. This is the fact that young people have to take into consideration.
D. Most large companies list their job openings on their websites.
E. Not all of us are so sure of our plans, though, and that"s OK too.
F. Many juniors and seniors get bored answering that question over and over.
G. Ask friends in college about their schools and other schools they"re familiar with.
phone bills. All of the things may happen to you one day.
To our horror, some of these things have already happened to us. It was reported that recently huge
amounts of personal information of the clients (客户) on a certain website was let out. Who would watch
you without your permission? It might be a spouse, a girlfriend, a marketing company, a boss, a cop or a
criminal. Whoever it is, they will see you in a way you never intended to be seen or even do something
that may bring a disaster to you.
Psychologists tell us boundaries are healthy, but few boundaries remain nowadays. The digital bread
crumbs (碎屑) you leave everywhere make it easy for strangers to know who you are, where you are
and what you like. In some cases, a simple Google search can leak the deepest thought in your mind.
Like it or not, increasingly we live in a world where you simply cannot keep a secret.
The key question is: Does that matter? For many Americans, the answer apparently is ""no"".
When asked about privacy, most Americans say they are really concerned about losing it. And 60
percent of the respondents say they feel their privacy is "slipping away, and that bothers me".
But people say one thing and do another. Only a small number of Americans change any behaviors
in an effort to preserve their privacy. A series of tests about privacy have revealed that people will give
up personal information just to get their hands on a pitiful 50-cents-off coupon (优惠券). But privacy
does matter-at least sometimes. It"s like health; when you have it, you don"t notice it. Only when it"s gone
do you wish you"d done more to protect it.
B. People leave traces around when using modern technology.
C. There are always people who are curious about others" affairs.
D. Many search engines profit by revealing people"s identities.
B. People can refuse the temptation from merchants in daily life.
C. People rely more and more on advanced technology and can do little about it.
D. People know a lot about the importance of privacy but hardly do anything about it.
B. its importance is hardly understood
C. it is something that can easily be lost
D. people don"t value it until they lose it
B. Treasure your privacy
C. Boundaries are important between friends
D. The information age has its own shortcomings
with free products is to launch in Britain. From tomorrow, visitors to SampleTrend"s central London
store can try anything on its shelves, and all of the products can be taken home without charge. For a
nominal (象征性的) annual membership fee of £60, users are free to enter the shop once a month
and help themselves to no less than £250 worth of goods every year. The only requirement is that
shoppers are asked to complete a simple questionnaire about each product they try.
Known as "try-vertising" (体验式广告), the concept allows manufacturers to test products and
receive consumer feedback (反馈.) before launching onto the open market. It is already popular in
Japan and now aims to promote the broken UK retail industry.
According to new figures, stores are facing a Christmas crisis with the weakest trading for six
months. Michael Ghosh, the founder behind SampleTrend, said. "The concept behind SampleTrend
is unique in the UK. It allows shoppers the opportunity to walk away with a number of real, full-size
products of their choosing without handing over a penny."
The concept of try-vertising is simple but effective. Businesses across all sectors, from cosmetic (化
妆品) manufacturers to drink makers, place new products on the shelves at SampleTrend and wait for
consumers to try them out. Customers complete a short 10-point questionnaire about the product, and
the feedback they provide is used to make any last-minute adjustment before the product is brought
officially to market. The SampleTrend store houses everything including cosmetics, food and drink, and
household goods.
Ghosh, the former advertising and sales director for Disney Europe, said such feedback may also
build brand loyalty from the beginning-a particularly appealing prospect for new businesses.
B. It is unacceptable in Japan.
C. Its products are totally free for people.
D. Shoppers in it must complete a related questionnaire.
B. Manufacturers can test their products.
C. It can transform the economy of UK.
D. It is simple but effective.
B. newly produced
C. high quality
D. strangely designed
B. Negative.
C. Doubtful.
D. Uninterested.
trouble. But in recent years psychologists have taken quite a different view. Keith Oatley, Professor of
psychology at Glasgow University, is involved in the research which shows the fundamental importance
of emotions.
He believes we are very ambivalent about them: we think of our emotions as being unreasonable, but
we also consider them as essential to being human. For example, Mr Spock, a character in the television
series Startrek is super-intelligent--and he has no emotions at all! However, he is never made captain of
the spaceship. Maybe, this is because Mr Spock is not the kind of person you can share your feelings
with-a person who shows his emotions.
As Professor Oatley points out, our emotions have very important functions, for example, fear. If we
cross the road and a car approaches, we usually stop moving or step back. We stop what we are doing,
check what we have done-and pay very careful attention to the environment. The emotion of fear makes
us take this small series of actions which, on average, help preserve our safety.
On the other hand, if things are going well and small problems come up, we find we can solve them
with the resources we have to hand. As a consequence, we tend to feel happy and usually continue doing
the job.
Anger is an emotion that tends to occur when someone is preventing us from doing something. Then
this small "kit" of reactions enables us to prepare ourselves to be quite aggressive to that person, or to try
harder, and so on.
Professor Oatley believes emotions generally occur at these important moments in actions. With fear
and anger our emotions make us decide to start doing something else, while with happiness they "suggest" we continue what we are already doing.
B. They get us into trouble.
C. They are helpful to us.
D. They are reasonable.
B. We have similar ideas of emotions.
C. We are quite clear about emotions.
D. We can do nothing about emotions.
B. Happiness inspires us to continue what we are doing.
C. Anger may urge us to make greater efforts.
D. Anger tends to do us more harm than good.
B. emotions play a more important part than we realize
C. positive emotions such as love and joy are good for us
D. negative emotions make us continue what we are doing

1 But not until this century have we managed to capture it, to record it, and in the case of animation, to reinterpret it and recreate it. 2
In the world of cartoon animation, nothing is impossible. You can make the characters you create do
exactly what you want them.
A famous early cartoon character was Felix ,the Cat, created by Pat Sullivan in American in the early
nineteen twenties. 3 He could do all sorts of things no natural cat could do like taking off his tail, using
it as a handle and then putting it back.
Most of the great early animators lived and worked in America, the home of the moving picture
industry. 4 Popeye, the Sailorman and his girl friend Olive Oyl were born at the Max Fleischer studios
in 1933.
But to be an animator, you don"t have to be a professional. 5 All you have to do is draw directly
on to blank film and then run a projector.
