With my suitcase packed and some sandwiches in a bag, I started for the front door.My mom asked where I was going. “Im leaving home,” I said.“Whats that youre carrying?” she asked.“Some clothes and food,” I replied.“If you want to run away, thats all right,” she said. “But you came into this home without anything and you can leave the same way.”I threw my suitcase and sandwiches on the floor and started for the door again.“Wait a minute,” Mom said. “You didnt have any clothes on when you arrived, and I want them back.”This infuriated me. I tore my clothes off shoes, socks, underwear and all and shouted, “Can I go now?”“Yes,” my mom answered, “but once you close that door, dont expect to come back.”I was so angry that I shut the door forcefully and stepped out of my home. Then I noticed down the street two neighbor girls walking toward our house. I was so shy that I saw the big spruce (云杉) tree in our yard and jumped under the low-hanging branches (树枝). A pile of dried-up brown needles (针状物) were beneath the tree, and you cant imagine the pain those sharp needles caused to my body.After I was sure the girls had passed by, I ran to the front door and knocked at it loudly.“Its Billy! Let me in!”The voice behind the door answered, “Billy doesnt live here anymore. He ran away from home.”Looking behind me to see if anyone else was coming down the street, I said, “Mom! Im sorry. Im still your son. Let me in!”The door opened and Moms smiling face appeared. “Did you change your mind about running away?” she asked.“Whats for supper?” I smiled back.4.

For example, the Japanese will say to travelers, “Go straight down to the corner. Turn left at the big hotel and go past a fruit market. The post office is across from the bus stop.”People in Los Angeles, the US, have no idea of distance on the map: they measure distance by time, not miles. “How far away is the post office?” you ask. “Oh,” they answer, “its about five minutes from here.” You dont understand completely, “Yes, but how many miles away is it, please?” To this question you wont get an answer, because most probably they dont know it themselves.People in Greece sometimes do not even try to give directions because tourists seldom understand the Greek language. Instead, a Greek will often say, “Follow me.” Then hell lead you through the streets of the city to the post office.Sometimes a person doesnt know the answer to your question. What happens in the situation? A New Yorker might say, “Sorry, I have no idea.” But in Yucatan, Mexico, no one answers “I dont know.” People there believe that “I dont” is impolite. They usually give an answer, but often a wrong one. So a tourist can get lost very easily in Yucatan!However, one thing will help you everywhere in the world. Its body language.8. Which one of the following is probably an example of Japanese directions?A. “Go south two miles. Turn west and then go another mile.”B. “Turn right at the hospital and go past a school. The library is right in front of you.”C. “The post office is about five minutes from here.”D. “The post office is at Street Kamira.”9.

People in Yucatan always give right directions.B. There are different ways to give directions in different parts of the world.C. People in some places give directions in miles, but people in other places give directions in time.D. A persons body language can help you understand directions.DStage fright or performance anxiety is the anxiety, or fear which may occur in an individual by the requirement to perform in front of an audience. It is most commonly seen in school situations, like stand-up projects and class speeches. It has numerous forms: heart beating fast, trembling hands and legs, sweaty hands, dry mouth etc.In fact, most of the fear occurs before you step on stage. Once youre up there, it usually goes away.

Stage fright may come and go or decrease, but it usually does not disappear permanently (永久地) . You must concentrate on getting the feeling out and present what you have prepared calmly.Remember “Nobody” ever died from stage fright. But, according to surveys, many people would rather die than give a speech. If that applies to you, and you are an unlucky guy who is with stage fright the whole time, try out some of the strategies(策略) as follows to help get yourself under control. Realize that you may never overcome stage fright, but you can learn to control it, and use it to your advantage.Strategies are as follows when the program begins:1) If legs are trembling, lean on table or shift legs or move.2) Dont hold notes. The audience can see them shake. Use three-by-five cards instead.3) Use eye contact. Look at the friendliest faces in the audience.Remember nervousness doesnt show one-tenth as much as it feels. Before each presentation, make a short list of the items you think will make you feel better. Dont be afraid to experiment with different combinations. You never know which ones will work best until you try. Use these steps to control stage fright so it doesnt control you.
