job So that was what he did In fact in the next three months Johnny started ten jobs and was fired from ten jobs He explained to his father They wanted me to be at work at 8 00 a m and told me to do all sorts of unpleasant things I don t care how you do it Mr Smith said Either you earn some money or move out of the house I gave you one week s time In the next few days Tommy began to change He still stayed in his room all day but spent his time writing letters and reading through the newspapers More and more posts began to arrive for him He bought a new suit for himself and invited his parents to the theatre and for dinner afterwards at the most expensive restaurant in town When his proud parents arrived home after their evening hour a policeman was waiting at the front door Tom Smith he said as he handed him a piece of paper I ll see you in the court tomorrow When he got outside Tom told his parents everything When you told me to earn some money I decided to put an

Tom s secret C What did the policeman want Tom to do D How much did Tom have to pay all the people back B Our particular parenting style reflects our own way of looking Here s a great piece of writing reflecting parent s particular ways on the parenting style that have become known humorously as helicopter parenting and submarine 潜水艇 parenting Helicopter parents hover over their children managing every aspect of their child s life On the contrary submarine parents remain hidden coming to the surface when guidance is needed While helicopter parents may have the best intentions in reality they are raising children with few problem solving skills Children with hovering parents never get the chance to face disappointment and build up their ability to recover from misfortune Think about your typical submarine Submarines usually remain underwater In case of a need for emergency surfacing submarines can rise so quickly they are driven partially out of the water Submarine parents also remain out of sight yet able to pop up in the case of an emergency I admit I m a submarine mom My job as a parent is to have fun with my daughters while letting them explore and learn natural consequences My older daughter found herself acting in commercials and making more than minimum wage as a teen To give her a sense of the real world I insisted she spend three weeks every summer picking strawberries and earning 3 50 on a good day When my youngest daughter Sondra was six she wanted a very expensive American Girl Doll I cut the full color 18 inch picture out of the American Girl catalogue and had

virtuous But did you know it can also make you look good People who increased their intake over just six weeks developed a healthy glow and appeared more attractive researchers found Scientists at St Andrews University found eating them subtly increased yellow and red pigments in the volunteers skin They monitored the food intake of 35 people and took pictures of their faces arms and hands using a sensitive camera at the start and after three and six weeks Increasing their intake of greens by 2 9 portions a day was found to make the person look healthier and an extra 3 3 portion could enhance their attractiveness when their photographs were rated by others Fruit and vegetables are rich in carotenoids 类胡萝卜素 which are known to protect against cell damage from pollution and UV rays and can also prevent age related diseases including heart disease and cancer But while it was known eating extreme amounts of certain vegetables such as carrots could turn skin orange it was not known a small increase was perceptible to others and was seen as appealing A camera measured changes to the skin s redness yellowness and lightness and found it significantly changed in people who naturally increased their intake These changes were not evident at three weeks Using light sensors the researchers showed these red and yellow hues 色调 色相 were linked with the levels of carotenoids in their skin There are hundreds of carotenoids but those thought to have the most dramatic effect are lycopene 番茄红素 which gives tomatoes and red peppers their red color and beta carotene found in carrots as well as broccoli squash and spinach Skin color is also affected by chemicals called polyphenols 多酚 found in apples blueberries and cherries which cause blood rush to the skin surface 66 From Paragraph 4 we

their skin A the contents of intake B the levels of carrots C the time of eating fruit and vegetables D the amount of carotenoids 69 Among hundreds of carotenoids which are most effective A tomatoes and red peppers B squash and spinach C lycopene and beta carotene D heir red colour and beta carotene 70 The purpose of the article is to A tell people a new discovery B advise people to eat more fruit and vegetables C introduce a way to protect skin D list the functions of carotenoids to skin D Since we are social beings the quality of our lives depends in large measure on our interpersonal relationships One strength of the human conditions is our possibility to give and receive support from one another under stressful 有压力的 conditions Social support consists of the exchange of resources among people based on their interpersonal ties Those of us with strong support systems appear better able to deal with major life changes and daily problems People with strong social ties live longer and have better health than those without such ties Studies over types of illnesses from depression to heart disease show that the presence of social support helps people defend themselves against illness and the absence of such support makes poor health more likely Social support cushions stress in a number of ways First friends relatives and co workers may let us know that they value us Our self respect is strengthened when we feel accepted by others in spite of our faults and difficulties Second other people often provide us with informational support They help us to define and understand our problems and find solutions to them Third we typically find social companionship supportive Taking part in free time activities with others helps us to meet our social needs while at the same time distracting 转移注意力 us from our worries and troubles Finally other people may give us instrumental support money aid material resources and needed services that reduces stress by helping us resolve and deal with our problems 71 Interpersonal relationships are important because they can A deal with life changes B smooth away daily problems C make people live more easily D cure types of
