He asked them to write reports about each boys life in the future. Every one of the students wrote,“He doesnt have any hope.”Twenty-five years later, another professor read about the earlier reports. He told his students to find out what had happened to these boys. Of the 200 boys, 20 had moved away or died. Nobody knew what had happened to them. They tried very hard and found the other 180 people. Among them 176 had become successful as doctors, teachers and scientists.The professor was very surprised and decided to study it further. Luckily, all of them were living near him and he was able to ask each other. “What made you successful?” Each one answered with feeling, “There was a teacher.”The teacher was still living there, so the professor found her and asked the old woman how she had pulled those boys out of the slums, and changed them into successful people.

BWhen I was nineteen, I had a job at my local bookstore. Many of my customers were teenagers. One night, a eighteen year-old couple came in looking for a book. They seemed to be the usual type to give mall workers a hard time. When they came to the cash desk, she was a dollar or two short of buying the book she wanted and pulled out a ten-dollar bill to prove it.She looked so disappointed. I had a customer discount (折扣) card. It was still active, offering a 25% discount. So I told the girl, “Just a minute, dont worry, you have the money to buy the book.” I put my code, hoping that the worst I would get would be a slap on the wrist (轻微的惩罚).She gave me a thankful smile, she had a dollar left, and she and her boyfriend left the store. I believed that, like so many of my other customers, I would never see them again.I dont remember how long it was, but they did return later that same evening just to bring me a beautiful “thank you” card that said “Its people like you that make the world a better place to live in.”I am so happy and grateful for that bit of appreciation and that moment will forever hold a place in my heart. You, little girl, and your boyfriend also, have made the world a little brighter too.60. The girls trouble was that _.A. she couldnt find the book she wanted to buyB. she was caught stealing in the bookstoreC. she hadnt got enough money to buy the book she likedD. she and her boyfriend had a quarrel over which book to buy61.

A. express their thanks to the authorB. change the book C. give back the money they borrowedD. ask for the authors name. CYour voice is the only means of communicating over the telephone. Even so, watch your body language and facial expression they affect the way you sound. If you are sleepy, for example, you will often sound tired or breathless. To keep a healthy and bright tone（音调）in your voice, smile when talking on a phone.Dont answer the phone in a rush. Take a deep breath, and then breathe out slowly as you pick up the receiver. You will sound more relaxed. If you recognize the other peoples voice, use his/her name on your greeting. Use it again during the conversation and when parting. When making a difficult call, work out exactly what you wish to say. Stand while making the call-it will help you sound more confident.Get fairly quickly to the point “the reason Im calling is” Try to drop the pitch (音高)of your voice at the end of your voice at the ends of sentences it will help you be more sure about what you said.If you know somebody wants to talk a lot, make it clear at the start of the call that you have only a little time. There are several ways of making a call short: “Its been lovely talking to you, but I really must go now.” or “I know you are quite busy, so I better go now.” If all fails, try, “My other line is ringing.” Or “I think theres someone at the door.”When leaving a message on someones answering machine, speak clearly and slowly to allow the person to take down any details as your message plays back. Many people feel uneasy with answering machines. Again, form a picture of the other person in your mind, and you will sound more relaxed.With the increasing use of tele-communication and mobile phone, it has become of great importance that we pay special attention to HOW and WHAT when we speak on the phone.64.

But there is a story about Akita dog named Hachiko, which is regarded as the most loyal dog in the world.Hachiko was brought to Tokyo in 1924 by his owner, a college professor named Hidesamuro Ueno. Each day when Hidesamuro left for work, Hachiko would stand by the door to watch him go. When the professor came home at 4 oclock, Hachiko would go to the Shibuys station to meet him.Though this simple act alone showed a lot of loyalty, it was not the end. The following year, Hidesamuro died in an accident while at the college. Hachiko didnt realize that his master was gone. So the dog still returned to the railway station every day to wait for his master. The station master offered the dog a bed in the station and often gave him something to eat. Even so, Hachiko never changed his loyalty. Every day at 4 oclock he hopefully waited by the tracks as the train pulled in, looking for his best friends face among the people getting off.Hachiko died in 1935, after 10 years of waiting for his master. But the dog would not be forgotten a year before death, Shibuya Station set up a bronze statue of the loyal dog.

Sounds surprising? But it is true. On the other hand, too much stress will do harm to our health. So how to handle stress is important to us. Here are some suggestions:Try physical activity. When you feel stressed, try some exercise or physical activity. Running, walking, playing tennis or working in your garden are some of the activities you might try. Physical exercises will relax youyour body and your mind also.Share your stress. It helps to talk to someone about your worries. Perhaps a friend, a family member, a teacher or a relative can help you see your problems. In this way you can let your stress out or reduce it. Knowing when to ask for help may avoid more serious problems later.Know your limits. If a problem is beyond your control and cannot be changed at the moment ,learn to accept what it is for nowuntil such time when you can change it.Take care of yourself. You are special. Get enough rest and eat well. If you easily get angry and cant sleep well
