Neither side feels hurt by this. Both may exchange Christmas greetings for a year or two, perhaps a few letters for a whilethen no more. If the same two people meet again by chance, even years later, they pick up the friendship. This can be quite difficult for us Chinese to understand, because friendships between us flower more slowly but then may bee lifelong feelings, extending (延伸) sometimes deeply into both families. Americans are ready to receive us foreigners at their homes, share their holidays, and their home life. They will enjoy weling us and be pleased if we accept their hospitality (好客)easily. Another difficult point for us Chinese to understand Americans is that although they include us warmly in their personal everyday lives, they dont show their politeness to us if it requires a great deal of time. This is usually the opposite of the practice in our country where we may begenerous with our time. Sometimes, we, as hosts, will appear at airports even in the middle of the night to meet a friend. We may take days off to act as guides to our foreign friends. The Americans, however, express their wele usually at homes, but truly can not manage the time to do a great deal with a visitor outside their daily routine (常规).They will probably expect us to get ourselves from the airport to our own hotel by bus. And they expect that we will phone them from there. Once we arrive at their homes, the wele will be full, warm and real. We will find ourselves treated hospitably. For the Americans, it is often considered more friendly to invite a friend to their homes than to go to restaurants, except for purely business matters. So accept their hospitality at home!1.

Short and frequent hikes, needing planning or special equipment , are enjoyed by most people . Keep in shape by walking at a fast pace for at least 15 minutes every day . Climbing stairs instead of using a lift and running not far are also good ways of keeping in shape. On any hiking nothing is more important than good, fortalbe shoes . The things you take might include matches in a water-proof box, a knife , pass , map , first aid items and flashlight . Cameras may be taken, but dont load with too much . On longer hikes keep a fortable, steady pace and take rest stops often . Drink only safe water. If in doubt, boil the water . Dont go along the busy roads. When you have to use a road, keep as far over on the left as possible . Leave word at home or some other place as to where you are going and when you plan to return. On almost any hike, a map is a good idea . If going into a strange place, a detailed map is most helpful . Take along a field guide on flowers, birds , rocks , or other subjects depending upon your interests . This can add greatly to the enjoyment and educational value of your hike.5.

If youre a parent who spends long hours on the job, you probably feel sorry for spending so much time away from your kids. But the results of a new study show that a mothers voice alone can be just as forting to an anxious child as physical contact.In an experiment, researchers from the University of Wisconsin Madison asked a group of girls between the ages of 7 and 12 to solve math problems in front of judgesa stressful situation for anyone. Before the girls were set to give their answers, the researchers measured their levels of two hormones (荷尔蒙):cortisol , which goes up during stressful periods, and oxytocin, the “ love hormone.After they were finished, some of the girls got to meet up with their mothers right away. The moms came in and hugged the girls. Another group of the girls didnt see their mothers, but received phone calls from them, in which their mothers told them how well theyd done. The final group had no contact with their mothers, but instead watched an animal movie, March of the Penguins.Finally, the girls hormone levels were measured again. Although the movie was interesting, it did nothing to ease the childrens anxietybut, surprisingly, both the physical contact and phone calls from their mothers had the same impact (影响)on easing the girls stress levels.So, no matter how old you are, if youre feeling stressed about something in your life, a phone call to Mom might be just the key to helping you feel better.8 Which of the following is the right order in which the study was carried out?a.
