1The train was winding its way. All the other passengers were sleeping soundly, but I didnt fall asleep at that moment. I wanted to have a look at our West with my own eyes. Looking out of the window, I couldnt see g_ for miles. What I saw was ranges of mountains with little or no trees on them. All the mountains were sleeping in a veil (面纱) of silence.At that time I remembered and really understood a famous writers words, “The West of China used to be the beginning of Chinese c_, but now it is sleeping.” Maybe, we, who live in the East, have never thoughts we will come to the West one day. Maybe, some Easterners look down upon the West and think what it has is only the families soiled hands. Easterners have a sense of superiority (优越，高傲), but do they know if it were not for the soiled hands, there would not have been the richness in the East? If it were not for the deep wrinkles (皱纹) on the westerners f_, there would not have been the comfortable life of the handsome boys and pretty girls in the East. In a way, we can say, the West of China is g_!For tens of hundreds of years, our m_ rivers, the Yellow River has been flowing from the West to the East, carrying rich food all the way. As a result, the East is getting more and more beautiful, and the West is becoming poorer and poorer. Now the horn (号角) for developing the West has been b_. Lots of experts and scholars are entering the West. W_ up, the West of China! Here is the chance for you to develop yourself!We are sure that a few years later more and more people will come to the West, to develop or to visit it. The West of China will become rich and beautiful sooner or later. 2Human beings have lived on this earth for at least two millions years. For most of that time people did not live in towns. Sometimes they used to camp in caves. Sometimes they used to build camps in the forest or on the o_ ground. These camps were just groups of simple houses that were made of branches and leaves or grass.Only about thirty people lived in each camp. The men used to go h_ while the women and children collected food from the trees and other plants around the camp. All the food was s_ between everyone in the group. Every a few weeks they moved to another place in order to find more food there. It was a simple life, but people were c_. They had to make everything that they needed, and they had to know a lot about plants and animals. Mans body and b_ were formed by this kind of life.Nowadays a lot of people live in big towns and cities, and they work in offices and factories. Life is a lot easier than it was in the old days. There are fewer dangers, but there is less excitement. Most people do not have to move for food, but they have to stay in one place for most of their lives. They get some excitement from sports and unnatural. A few of them go looking for adventures -s_ round the world, climbing mountains, or exploring caves. Most people look forward to the holidays, because then they can enjoy a c_. A lot of them go camping in the country, or travel by the sea. They try to get back to nature. They try to live as people did thousands of years ago. But they also take a lot of modern luxuries (奢侈) with them. Camping today is very different from camping in the old days. 3Many people catch a cold in the spring time and / or fall. It makes us wonder .if scientists can send a man to the moon, why they cant find a cure for the c_ cold? The answer is easy. There are exactly hundreds of kinds of cold viruses there. You never know which one you will get, so there isnt a cure for each one.When a virus a_ your body, the body works hard to get r_ of it. Blood rushes to your nose and brings congestion(充血)with it .You feel terrible because you cant b_ well, but your body is actually eating the virus.

In the United States and sane other countries, for example, people might eat chicken soup to feel better. Some people take hot baths and drink warm l_. Other people take medicine to stop the fever, congestion, and running nose.There is one interesting thing to note - some scientists say taking medicines when you have a cold is actually bad for you. The virus stays in you longer because your body doesnt have a way to fight it and kill it .Bodies can do an amazing job on their own. There is a joke, however, on taking medicine when you have a cold. It goes like this:If it takes about one week to get over a cold if you dont take medicine, but seven days to get over a cold you take medicine.4One of the biggest problems in developing countries is hunger. An organization called Heifer International is working to improve this s_. The organization sends farm animals to families and communities around the world. An American farmer Dan West developed the idea for Heifer International in the 1930s. Mr. West was working in Spain where he d_ a need for cows. Many families were starving because of the Civil War in that country. So Mr. West asked his friends in the United States to send some cows. The first Heifer animals were sent in 1944. Since that time more than 4,000,000 people in 115 countries have had better lives because of Heifer animals. To receive a Heifer animal, families must first e_ their needs and goals. They must also make a plan which will allow them to become self-supporting. Local experts usually provide training. The organization says that animals must have food, water, shelter, health care and the a_ to reproduce. Without them the animals will not remain healthy and productive. Heifer International also believes that families must pass on some of their s_ to others in need. This belief guarantees that each person who takes part in die p_ also becomes a giver. Every family that receives a Heifer animal must agree to give that animals first female baby to other people in need. Families must also agree to pass on the s_ and training theyve received from Heifer International. This concept helps communities become self-supporting.5In Britain, if you are found guilty of a crime (犯罪), you can be sent to prison or be fined (罚款)or be ordered to do community work such as t_ public places and helping the old. You may also be sent to special c_ when you learn special skills like cooking, writing and car maintenance. About 5 percent of the present p_ are women. Many prisons were built over one hundred years ago. But the government will have built 11 new prisons by next year. There are two sorts of prisons. The open sort and the closed sort. In the closed sort, prisoners are given very little freedom. They spend three to ten hours outside their cells when they exercise, eat, study, learn skills, watch TV and talk to other prisoners. All prisoners are expected to work. Most of them are p_ for what they do, whether it is doing maintenance or cooking and cleaning. Prisoners in open prisons are l_ up at night, but for the r_ of the time, they are free within the prison grounds. They can exercise, have visitors, or study. And some are allowed out of the ground to study or to do community work.6First day are always tough, whether its the first day of school, the first day at a new job or even the first day of the weekthats right, the horrible “Monday Morning”. While first days can be very exciting, many of us face them with a sense of excitement because they r_ us to change. However, some people are better at d_ with changes than others and, as a result, they are often more s_ in life.

When someone says that he had a bad memory, he really means that he doesnt give it enough c_ to become stronger. If a friend says that his arms and legs are weak, we know that it is his own fault. But if he tells us that he has a p_ memory, many of us think that his parents are to blame (责怪), and few of us know that it is just his o_ fault. Have you ever found that some people cant read or write but they usually have better memories? This is because they can not read or write and they have to remember things; they can not write them down in a little notebook. They must remember d_, names, songs and stories; so their memories is the whole time being e_. So if you want a good memory, learn from these people: p_ remembering.8Bright colors stir up a range of feelings. For example, the color red can c_ people to feel excited.
