He lived with an American family. One day, he went to his room in the evening, and did his homework. His host-mom came to him and asked if he would like to go along to the movies. He wanted to go, so he shook his head from side to side, said “Yes”. His host-mom did a couple of steps back, and looked puzzled.She thought that he didnt want to go out because he shook his head from side to side. However, he wanted to go out to the movies. Bulgarians shake their heads from side to side when they mean “yes”. People in other countries shake their heads from side to side when they mean “no”.Gestures can have different meanings according to different cultures. For example, in America, putting your index finger(食指) and your thumb(拇指) in a circle is commonly used as an OK sign that means everything is all right. However, in France, that sign is used to express “nothing” or “zero”, which can have a negative meaning.Generally speaking, gestures are a type of communication that uses a part of our body, and when speaking with people from other cultures, gestures can be important keys or clues to understand them. However, we need to understand that those gestures vary from culture to culture, and it is necessary for us to have an open mind in understanding the different gestures.56.

But get ready for the MP3 player in your hand to get much smallerthe size of a Band-Aid (创可贴).Its called the Skinny Player, and its being designed by industrial designers Chih-Wei Wang and Shou-His Fu. Unlike the current types of iPod Shuffles and iPod Nanos, the Skinny Player does not need to be fixed onto your clothes or put into your pocket. It could stick to your skin(皮肤) like you would attach a Band-Aid. But unlike Band-Aids, this tiny MP3 player will not lose its stickiness as you pull it off for the hundredth time.The Skinny Player features flexible speakers allowing the user to enjoy music conveniently. When it gets dirty, the user can simply clean it using a damp cloth. No batteries either. The Skinny Players designers say it will be powered by body heat, using a flexible battery charging device (充电器) that is in contact with skin whenever the player is being used.The design only include an on/off button and flexible speakers, no word yet on arranging the volume. Besides, the memory capacity(储存容量) wont be the best, as it is designed to only store one album.The small size and the ability to stick it onto your skin like a Band-Aid should make the Skinny Player perfect for runners who now depend on their iPod to keep them energized on the running path.61.

This time, which took place several years ago, but seems as if it just happened.On an afternoon several years ago, my brother-in-law opened the bottom drawer of my sisters dress and picked out a beautiful skirt. “ Jan bought this the first time we went to New York, at least 8 or 9 years ago. She never wore it. She was saving it for a special occasion.” he saidI guess this was the occasion: it was the funeral of my sister, after her unexpected death.He took the shirt and put it on bed, with the other clothes we were taking to the funeral. Then he closed the drawer and turned to me, “Dont ever save anything for a special occasion. Every day youre alive is a special occasion.”Im thinking about his words, and theyve changed the way I live my life. Im spending more time with my family and friends and less time in committee meetings. Whenever possible, life should be a kind of experience to enjoy, not to suffer. “Someday ”and “one of these days ”are losing their importance on my vocabulary. If its worth seeing or hearing or doing, I want to see and hear and do it now.Ever since that day, I have been trying very hard not to put off, hold back or save anything that would add laughter and color to our lives. Every morning when I open my eyes, I tell myself that every day, every minute, every breath, truly is a gift. So cherish every day and find the true meaning of your life.66Why did Jan buy the beautiful skirt but didnt wear it?AShe waited for a special occasion to wear it on.BShe wanted to keep it for someone else.CShe saved it till she grew up.DShe would give it to herself as a gift some day.67What does the underlined word “cherish” mean?ATreasure.BWaste.COwn.DSave68From his experience, the author learns that_.Aeverybody can have a happy life through effortsBevery day in our lives is worth cherishingCenjoying ourselves is the most important thing in our livesDeverybody will have some things left to do after his death69Whats the best title for this passage?AEvery Day IS a GiftBMy Sister JanCWhat Is the Meaningful Life likeDThe Most Important Time in Your LifeDNow, its time for some brief news items.Teens Go OnlineSome 13 million European children under 18 use the Internet for schoolwork, games and musicaccording to research done by Nielsens “Net-rating”.
