With Halloween just around the corner, today we will explore the world of ghosts in this program! The Merriam-Webster online dictionary says the word “ghost” goes back a thousand years to the “earliest recorded evidence of the language.” The first meaning of “ghost” was “the seat of life or intelligence.” And it still has that meaning in some expressions.
第二次月考测试卷 第4页（共12页）
However, today, the word “ghost” usually means the soul of a dead person. This meaning is based on the idea that a person’s spirit and body are separate. The spirit can continue existing long after the body has died.
During Halloween, kids dressed as ghosts are common sights. The costume is very simple: just throw on a white cloth that covers you from head to foot. But do not expect to win any costume competitions! You would not have a ghost of a chance. People use this expression to mean that something is very unlikely to happen.
The sight might even make you turn pale as a ghost. This is used when people lose color in their face. Sometimes this happens when a person is scared. But a bad cold or flu can also turn you as pale as a ghost.
“Ghost” can also be a verb. In the 1880s the term ghost meant a person who works in secret for another person. Ghostwriters produce speeches for politicians. They also produce books for authors who want to tell their life stories but are not professional writers.
And sometimes ghostwriters are involved in a series of books, like the children’s stories based on the teenage detective Nancy Drew. The series began in 1930. The author given credit was Carolyn Keene. But she was not even real! Ghostwriters did all the work.
Another expression using “ghost” as a verb is simply to ghost. This does not mean to die. It means to leave a place or event without saying “goodbye” to anyone. You can ghost from your job. You can ghost from a party. You can even ghost from a relationship. This is when you stop communicating with someone because you are simply no longer interested in them.
But I will not ghost from Words and Their Stories.
24. The basic meaning of the word “ghost” nowadays is ___________. A. the secret of another person
B. the color of one’s face C. the spirit of a dead person
D. the origin of intelligence
25. If someone says “you don’t have a ghost of chance to win the match”, he means__________. A. without doubt you won’t lose the match B. the match is unlikely to happen C. it’s impossible for you to win the match D. you are too scared to win the match 26. What can be inferred about the word “ghost” according to the passage? A. Kids dressed in a white cloth like ghosts can win a costume competition. B. A bad cold can turn people as pale as a ghost because they fear illness. C. It was Carolyn Keene who ghostwrote the children’s stories. D. A person devoted to his job is unlikely to ghost from his job.

It’s a familiar feeling. Your friend has made the team for Saturday’s big game, and you take a certain pleasure in telling him you can’t be there to watch him play. You smile, but that voice in you asks, why him and not you?
Envy is a fault that we like to keep secret. It raises its ugly head when we focus on what we want but don’t possess now, or we may even wish for and take pleasure in someone losing it. Feelings of unfairness are part of being human, but when you focus on them, you can never get out of your dark emotions. And that makes you feel bad.
So is there a solution? Is there anything you can do to stop the most ungenerous emotions?
Well, why not turn envy on its head, and make it the encouragement you need for self-improvement? The best weapon against envy is not to compete where you can’t shine, but to do your absolute best where you can.
Start by making peace with yourself, and accept the gifts which make you unique. Make an agreement with yourself to be the best you can be. Then find out exactly the circumstances and qualities in others that start your envy. Is it someone’s singing voice, their work promotion or their new car? Envy shows us the things we’d like to have, so make up a plan to earn what’s important to you. Sign up for a night class. Start a training program. Give up a treat or two, and start saving for what you want.
And aim for real pleasure in the achievements and good fortune of others. Cheer on your friend when he scores that goal. Enjoy your best friend’s wedding day. Then go out and do something special, and make yourself wonderfully proud of you.
28. The first paragraph is intended to ______. A. introduce the topic B. tell the main idea
C. ask questions
D. give examples
29. When envy appears, we actually______. A. ignore its existence B. share it with friends C. have feelings of unfairness
D. lose something of our own
30. What is the best way to help stop envy?
