She was so excited that she took the card on the desk and rushed out. Then they went for lunch happily. “I used the card, but I had thought it was mine. I didn’t know it was Rose’s until she looked for it. I was too afraid to explain it to her. So I decided to put the card back with some money secretly. I am sorry, Rose.” Kate said in a low voice.

“It’s just a misunderstanding (误会)!” said the teacher. Tears came into Rose’s eyes. Then she said, “I was very sorry, Kate! I hope we are still good friends.” Kate smiled when she heard the words. Hand in hand, they walked toward the classroom building.

Knowing how to ask for information and help politely is important. In English, “Where are the restrooms?” and “Could you please tell me where the restrooms are?” are similar requests (请求) — both are correct English, but the first could sound rude. It’s important to use correct language, but sometimes this alone is not enough

— we need to learn how to be polite when we make requests.

In English, just like in Chinese, we change the way we speak when talking with different people. The expressions you use might depend on whom you are speaking to or how well you know them. If you say to your teacher, “Where is my book?” this will sound rude. But if you say, “Excuse me, Mr West. Do you know where my book is?” your question will sound much more polite. On the other hand, it might be alright to say “Where is my book?” to the people you know well.

And you would not usually say, “Peter, lend me your pen.” A very direct order like this can sound rude in English. Usually in English polite questions are longer and include extra (附加的) language, such as “Could you please...?” or “Can I ask...?” It sounds more polite to say, “Peter, could you please lend me your pen?” If you stop a stranger in the street, we might first say, “Excuse me. I wonder if you can help me.” or “I’m sorry to trouble you but…” before asking him for help.

It might seem that speaking politely is more difficult than being direct, and in a way this may be true.

53. When we make requests, we need to speak in a ____ way. A. polite B. careful C. different direct

54. You should say “____” when you ask a stranger for a way. A. Which is the way to the zoo? B. How can I get to the zoo? C. Do you know the way to the zoo?

D. Excuse me. Can you tell me the way to the zoo?

55. Which of the following is true according to the passage?

D.

A. We should use long sentences when we ask for information and help. B. When we ask for help from others, polite language must be used.

C. The way of speaking is important when we ask different people for help. D. In English, polite questions are as neccessary as rude and direct ones.

The best tool you can use in communicating with parents is to keep talking to them, no matter what. Strong relationship (关系) depend heavily on keeping the lines of communication open. Try to talk about everyday things with your parents. That doesn’t mean telling them everything. In fact, turn the focus onto them for a change: Ask about their day — just as they do with you.

David, 16, is a senior school student. One evening, after he mentioned at dinner that he was thinking of trying out for the school play, his mom kept asking about it for weeks. And later, it also felt like she was getting too involved (参与) in something he wanted to do himself. Instead of telling his mom how he felt, David decided it would be easier not to tell her anything he was doing in the future.

A good way to get a parent to ask fewer questions is to offer some information on your own. This puts the communication in your hands. The more you keep a parent told about everyday things, the less they need to ask. Communicating everyday things has another advantage: It can show your parents that you’re responsible enough to make good decisions.

It won’t always be easy. You may get frustrated (受挫) at times. But try not to give up. It may take a bit for a parent who is used to making all the decisions to adjust (适合) to the independent-thinking person their child is becoming. Parents also don’t want to see their sons and daughters suffer (受苦) if the choices they make on their own aren’t the “right” ones. To many parents, it seems easier to step in and take control simply because they believe their years of experience put them in a better position to make decisions. If you feel that’s the case (情况) with your parents, talk to them about it. 56. The underlined part “turn the focus onto them” probably means ____. A. talk the things about them C. show your thanks to them

B. have a good time with them

D. do something good for them

57. In the third paragraph, you are advised to ____. A. let your parents know everything about your daily life

B. tell your parents more information before you are asked C. keep your parents asking you more questions of your things D. be responsible to help your parents make good decisions 58. What causes parents to take control of children? A. They find their children wrong. B. They do well in almost everything. C. They think they can make better decisions. D. They are used to making choices for children. 59. The main idea of the passage is how to ____. A. make decisions on your own C. think carefully for yourself

B. learn from your parents

D. communicate with parents

Many people often eat packaged ( = in small bags) foods at their work places, such as frozen dumplings, rice rolls and instant noodles (方便面), which have lots of fat and calories (热量).

The solution (解答): Read the instructions to find the healthiest foods that are low in salt and high in fiber (纤维). Also check to make sure they have ingredients (混合物) such as vegetables and grains (粮食). When possible, use packaged foods as part of a “home-cooked” meal. For example, frozen dumplings with fresh vegetables are better than dumplings alone. Bad habit 2:

People without breakfast don’t have enough energy they need to get through the morning. Eating breakfast improves your attention, memory and feelings. The solution: Always keep a kind of quick foods like yogurt (酸奶). Or have a standing order at a breakfast place. Bad habit 3:

It takes your body at least 20 minutes to “tell” your brain that you are full, so fast eaters usually eat more than people who eat slowly.

The solution: Try to slow down. Try eating at least some of your meals without TV, hand phones or computers. Use a plate or bowl when you eat. Bad habit 4:

Healthy snacks (小吃) between meals are fine. But when you snack instead of having real meals, you will not eat your meals regularly. And snack foods such as chips and sweets aren’t very healthy. That makes it easy to overeat. The solution: To get more energy, allow yourself two healthy snacks a day. Choose snacks that will make you feel full. Try fruit, yogurt or nuts.
