choose to consider things from a positive point of view. Everyone experiences the ups and downs of life,
however, we can make a decision to take advantage of the negative or practice what the old saying says to do: "When life gives you lemons, make lemonade!"
It really boils down to your attitude and you have the ability to work your attitude into any shape you like.
Here are some tips:
●Ignore those who tell you life is too difficult to be happy. what do they know?
●When you awaken each morning, be thankful for another day, even if it"s raining.
●Smile at those you meet, even if they don"t return the favor.
●Don"t borrow trouble. Each day has enough of its own.
●Don"t allow trouble to bury you in its gray depth of sorrow.
●Don"t give in to negative thinking.
●Be positive even when others are not.
●Refuse to give up on anything worth having or doing.
●Do something you enjoy each day, even if it"s just a walk in your neighborhood.
● Whistle(吹口哨) as you go though the day.
●Work at being happy because it"s worth it.
You"re human, like everyone else, and from time to time you need a little pick-me-up in your decision to
be happy. When you reach that stage, find someone else who has decided to be happy. Join forces with him
and march forward in your decision to be a happy person. Simply speaking, a happy person is not a person in
a certain set of circumstances (环境) but rather a person with a certain set of attitudes. Choose today to just
be happy-as much as it depends on you!

way across the Sahara without a map, while others can lose themselves in the next street?
Scientists say we"re all born with a sense of direction, but it is not properly understood how it works. One
theory is that people with a good sense of direction have simply worked harder at developing it. Research being
carried out at Liverpool University supports this idea and suggests that if we don"t use it, we lose it.
"Children as young as seven have the ability to find their way around. Says Jim Martland, Research Director of the project." However, if they are not allowed out alone or are taken everywhere by car, they never develop
the skills."
Jim Martland also emphasizes that young people should be taught certain skills to improve their sense of
direction. He makes the following suggestions:
If you are using a map, turn it so it relates to the way you are facing.
If you leave your bike in a strange place, put it near something like a big stone or a tree. Note landmarks on
the route as you go away from your bike. When you return, go back along the same route.
Simplify the way of finding your direction by using lines such as streets in a town. Streams, or walls in the
countryside to guide you. Count your steps so that you know how far you have gone and note any landmarks
such as tower blocks or hills which can help to find out where you are. Now you need never get lost again!
B. people learn a sense of direction as they grow older
C. people never lose their sense of direction
D. everybody possesses a sense of direction from birth
B. They should never be allowed out alone if they lack a sense of direction.
C. They have a sense of direction and can find their way around.
D. They can develop a good sense or direction if they are driven around in a car.
B. draw a map of the route to help remember where it is.
C. avoid taking the same route when you come back to it.
D. remember something easily recognized on the route.

behind. They become "kidults" (kid+adult). Being a kidult has become a lifestyle-choice among young people
across Asia. Some kidults collect toys they once played with. Hello Kitty, Garfield, and Snoopy have many
adult fans around the world. It is not unusual to see a 20-something woman with a big, Garfield-shaped
cushion on her sofa or a Hello Kitty mobile phone accessory.
Other kidults still enjoy children"s stories and fairy tales. For example, Bloomsbury even published the
Harry Potter novels with an adult cover. That way, no one else on the subway will know that an adult is
actually reading a children"s book!
"Kidults can be like vitamins to society. Adults who value their childhood and hold on to pure, child-like
emotion may be needed in such a rough and dry society," said Lee Sojung, professor of Foreign Studies at
Hankuk University (韩国外国语大学). He added that kidult culture may fill the generation gap between adults
and kids. It could give children and their parents books, movies, and cartoon shows to enjoy together. He
may be right.
Tim Greenhalgh, a professor, explained that some kidults just refuse to grow up. They value childhood
because life in a busy and stressful city frightens them. Kidults would like to forget their age and openly
show their fear of society and adulthood.
B. Bloomsbury knows some kidults don"t want people to know that they are kidults
C. Kidults like to have vitamins very much
D. Some toys are so interesting that even adults like them very much
B. it can help kidults feel relaxed
C. it can make people loyal to one"s parents
D. it is helpful to solve some social problems
B. kidults have mental problems
C. our society is very dull
D. some people can never grow up
post office?"
Foreign tourists are often confused (困惑) in Japan because most streets there don"t have names; in Japan,
people use landmarks (地标) in their directions instead of street names. For example, the Japanese will say to
travelers, "Go straight down to the corner. Turn left at the big hotel and go past a fruit market. The post office
is across from the bus stop."
In the countryside of the American Midwest, there are not usually many landmarks. There are no mountains,
so the land is very flat; in many places there are no towns or buildings within miles. Instead of landmarks,
people will tell you directions and distances. In Kansas or Iowa, for example, people will say, "Go north two
miles. Turn east, and then go another mile."
People in Los Angeles, California, have no idea of distance on the map; they measure distance in time, not
miles. "How far away is the post office?" you ask. "Oh," they answer, "it"s about five minutes from here." You
say, "Yes, but how many miles away is it?" They don"t know.
It"s true that a person doesn"t know the answer to your question sometimes. What happens in such a
situation? A new Yorker might say, "Sorry, I have no idea." But in Yucatan, Mexico, no one answers "I don"t
know." People in Yucatan believe that "I don"t know" is impolite. They usually give an answer, often a wrong
one. A tourist can get very, very lost in Yucatan!
B. show him a map of the place
C. tell him the names of the streets
D. refer to recognizable buildings and places
B. Los Angeles.
C. Kansas.
D. Iowa.
B. as a test
C. so as to be polite
D. for fun
B. There is no landmarks in the countryside of American.
C. People in Yucatan always give wrong answers when asked the way.
D. People in Los Angeles measure distance in time, not miles when asked the way.
B. It"s useful for travelers to know how to ask the way properly.
C. People have similar understandings of politeness.
D. New Yorkers are generally friendly to visitors.
more about new cultures. Traditional pen pals were the primary source for such contacts, and students could
write each other letters. With the Internet, finding friends has become much easier, and such relationships are
called key pals.
However, care and consideration should be given when finding friends on the Internet:
◎Search the Internet for reputable (有信誉的) services. Look for reviews(评论) of such sites to learn more about other students" experiences. Don"t join a service until you have done your research.
◎Check to see if you can use a nickname (绰号) instead of __________, to protect your identity(身份).
◎Never give personal information to anyone, including your home address, phone number, and birthday.
◎Stop contact with others if you feel uncomfortable with the topics of conversation. Again, if you protect
your identity, this will be easier to do. Tell your teachers, parents, or even local law enforcement if problem
arise.
◎Try to use the language you are studying in the classroom in your communication(交流) with others.
◎Ask proper questions that will also help you learn about other cultures. Remember that someone"s
personal experience might help you to understand a whole culture. You have to talk to many different people,
and this will get you started.
