However, with the fast development of mobile phones, it has lost its place in peoples everyday life. In order to save their loved red phone boxes, people have come up with many ideas, for example, to turn them into toilets or art houses. In a village in Somerset, a place in South West England, villagers have found a new way to save their red phone box. They turned it into a mini library to deal with the shortage of libraries in their area. The idea was given by a local villager, Janet Fisher, who lives opposite the phone box. Villagers got together to set up the book box. Over 100 books and a lot of movies and music CDs are available at this mini library. The books are of different kinds, including from cooking books to the classics and childrens books. People can put the books that they have read inside the phone box, and take away the books that theyd like to read. The books are always changing. There is a regular check on the books to keep the phone box collection fresh.Anyone is free to come to read books there. The phone box library is open every day around the clock and is lit (the past form of “light”) at night.“ Its very pleasing that the red phone box has been saved. More importantly, it can continue providing a service for us,” said one of the villagers.48.

And the way we meet and greet them creates an impression. Its important to do so in a proper way, no matter whether you are introducing yourself to someone, or introducing two people to each other. To keep you aware of this, we have collected tips on how to make a proper introduction.Always stand when making an introduction.When you are seated and someone comes up to greet you, Try to stand up. By doing this, you show respect for yourself and for the other person.Always keep eye contact while making an introduction.Many people are not aware of the value of this simple action. When you make eye contact you are giving a confident image.Always introduce a person of less authority（权威）to one of greater authority. The most important thing to remember is to say the most important persons name first.For example, when introducing your supervisor（管理者） to a job candidate（求职者）, you would give your supervisors name first. Bob Jones, may I introduce Susan Lee, who has just graduated from ABC University?In a situation where rank(头衔) is unimportant, an introduction is based on sex(性别) and age. A man is introducing a woman and a younger woman to an older woman.What if you find yourself in a situation where you have forgotten the other persons name? Start with a handshake and reintroduce yourself. By doing this, you will usually cause the other person to do the same.However, if the other person does not take your suggestion, it is OK simply to say sorry and let the person know that you cannot remember her or his name. This is not the ideal situation, of course, but it does happen to all of us. The other person should be forgiving.51.

However, Chris job can be just as exciting and dangerous as being an explorer.Chris works for MSF, an organization also known as Doctors Without Border(国界). Since 1971, MFS has sent trained doctors all over the world to help people who have suffered from disasters, such as wars and illnesses. Chris is a doctor from France who has traveled to many places to organize programs that help people.At the moment, over 27,000 trained doctors have taken part in MSF projects. The organization received the Nobel Peace Prize in 1999. All kinds of doctors can volunteer for MSF. They need to be ready to go almost anywhere in the world and, of course, they should face difficulties. Most of MSFs work is in Africa. When MSF chooses a doctor for a task, they have to go for at least six months. When doctors have completed a few tasks, they might be sent on an emergency(紧急的) task following a disaster, such as an earthquake.But why would doctors leave a comfortable life and a good pay to join MSF? According to Chris, the experience they have is a great help in their life. Whats more, just like the explorers of the past, they need to keep an open mind and learn to get on well with the people they meet.
