Camping is a fun and exciting experience. 36 Here are several suggestions for you to make a good preparation.
Decide with whom you are camping. 37 However, if you are taking a group of small kids or a group of friends, read the next step carefully.
Make sure you get insurance information and health information before you do anything else. If someone is injured on the trip, the insurance information will make a difference in the care they receive. 38 For example, you cant pack peanut butter if your friend is allergic to it. If someone who is coming needs routine medicine, make sure they have it.
39 Enough for three meals and an optional snack per day. Try not to pack too many bad food, like cheese, chicken, and milk. Basically, try to avoid daily products and meat, because they can make you sick if you eat them when they go bad. Also, remember to pack lots of water.
Gather all of the other things on the“things youll need” list and try to pack them in a small bag. You can put smaller items in a backpack or rolling suitcase and the larger items like your sleeping bag can be carried in a garbage. 40
A. Prepare kinds of tasty snacks.
B. Pack a suitable amount of food.
C. Health information is very important in planning the trip.
D. If you are going camping, then it would be a good choice.
E. But to stay organized and safe, you must prepare for the camp.
F. If it is just you or your family, the next step is not quite as important.
G. They are great for carrying and can be folded and put into a small space until needed.

There is something special about winter camping. In the winter you can see farther through the woods without leaves to block out the light, you can step onto frozen waterways, and spot winter migrant birds looking for seeds on the white-packed ground. 36 Below youll find a few suggestions for making your all-season camping trip more pleasurable.
37 Dramatic winter storms can be dangerous with the threat of ice storms and freezing rain. Get your trip off to a good start by planning to go when the weather is calm and, ideally, clear. If youll be driving to your campsite, consider putting on snow tires or carrying tire chains.
Next, turn your attention to packing your clothes. If youll be camping in snow, its important that your outer-most layer be something water and wind resistant. Below this top layer, be sure to dress in layers of wool and synthetic fibers(合成纖維). If youre wearing layers, this warm air gets trapped next to your body, keeping your skin warm. 38
Ground cover is also important during winter camping. Damp ground and rocks(even dry ones)can take your heat away. 39 Tent campers will also want to store their water bottles inside the tent to keep the water from freezing completely at night.
Once youre well-dressed, with waterproof shoes on your feet, youre ready to explore the wintry world. 40 And remember to bring lip balm(膏), sun glasses, and sun screen (yes, even in February)with you on your all-weather adventure.
A. Do put your things in the tent.
B. The more layers, the warmer youll be!
C. How can you enjoy these precious experiences?
D. Before you get started, be sure to check the weather report.
E. The best way to enjoy these rare experiences is to go camping!
F. So carry a piece of waterproof pad(墊)for enjoying picnics outside.
G. Put a wool hat on your head to preserve your heat, then head for the camping!

Martial arts(武術(shù))are a hobby or a way to keep fit for many people. 36
The story began with her grandfather. 37 Life was really tough in the 1950s, when people had to eat wild herbs to barely satisfy their hunger. Yet he never stopped practicing. Although living standards rose by the 1990s, martial arts went through a downturn. Many practitioners quit and looked for other ways to make a living.

“My father said that martial arts are not just for competitions, or just for physical fitness or self-defense. Martial arts can totally change your life and help you overcome obstacles,”Hu Yashis father, Hu Jianping, said. 38 He believes that this is the way to acquire the spirit of martial arts, and that one has to keep working hard.
39 Two years later, her father took her to the club and trained her just like anyone else. She was greatly supported by her devoted grandfather during college.“He taught me many types of martial arts.”said Hu Yashi.
In 2015, when she considered quitting her bank job and opening a martial arts club back in her hometown of Changde City, central Chinas Hunan Province, her grandpa was the first one to support her. 40 The legacy(遺產(chǎn))is being passed on to more and more people.

Stress can boil over time, hit you like a sudden shake, or strike you out of the blue every so often. Heres expert advice for controlling stress.
Type of stress:Work
Work-related stress causes ill health, reduced productivity, and poor motivation. 36 . Ways to fight work-related stress include physical activity. Commit to exercising, at least 30 minutes a day. This can be a walk during your lunch hour.
Type of stress:Urban living
The sounds, smells, and experience of urban living impact significantly upon two areas of the brain tasked with regulating emotion(情緒)and stress. 37. But another more practical solution may be allowing your brain to take a much-needed vacation through meditation(冥想).
38
If you cant save a penny for retirement, or come up with cash to feed your kids, extreme stress is bound to occur. This type of stress can last long, resulting in depression, feelings of helplessness, and even heart disease or cancer. 39. If unemployment is the issue, working with a non-profit employment counselor is a solid, first step. If you have some money in the bank but are living above your means, it can help to analyze your spending habits against your income.
Type of stress:Life changes
40. But even minor events, such as moving can increase stress levels. While dealing with all types of stress is part of life, recognizing just how stressed out you are, and why, can be a good first step in dealing. You may not be able to change your stress-causing reality, but dealing with it is within your grasp.

Its amazing that you can learn while sleeping!Although scientists arent exactly sure how it works, they have discovered that the brain can take in things during sleeping. The following are three things deserving your try.
36 In an experiment, researchers gave native German speakers some basic French vocabulary words. Afterwards, they played words for some study participants while sleeping, and then these participants listened to the same words again without sleeping. 37 But those having heard the words in their sleep were better able to identify them later. This was true only for the specific words played while they slept.
Learn a new melody(旋律)while sleeping. If you have trouble learning a new melody, listening to it while you sleep could do the trick. In another sleep-and-learning study, researchers firstly had a group of volunteers learn a guitar melody from a play-along video lesson. 38 Finally, some volunteers were treated to recordings of the melody, whichthey had just learned while they were asleep. Those who heard it while napping were able to play the tune far better than those who didnt hear it.
39 You dont exactly learn memories when you sleep, but one group of researchers found that you can make your memories stick while sleeping. Studies around memory found that using sound or smell can help people have a better grasp of their memories, even insignificant ones.
In a word, study foreign words while sitting next to a plant, and then put it on your bedside table for the night. 40
A. Make memories stick during sleep.
B. Learn foreign words while sleeping.
C. Keep sleeping for quite a long time.
D. Then the participants took a nap for a moment.
E. You wont learn memories when you fall asleep.
F. Then other study participants listened to the same words while awake.
G. The smell of the plant may help you strengthen the memories of the vocabulary.

Running is free, requiring no equipment and the scenery can be absolutely beautiful. 36 The number of recreational runners in Australia has doubled from 2006 to 2014. Now more than 1.35 million Australians run for fun and exercise.
37 Past study has found running reduces the risk of obesity(肥胖), high blood pressure, disability and heart disease. It also improves heart function, balance and metabolism(新陳代謝). These are important components of your overall health status.
The recent research published in the British Journal of Sports Medicine was based on data acquired by 14 earlier studies that studied the habits and longevity(壽命)of six groups. 38 Running was associated with a 23 percent lower chance of death from cancer and a 27 percent less likely to die of any cause. Running just once a week, or for 50 minutes a week, reduces the risk of death at a given point in time.
However, research found no evidence that benefits increase with greater amounts of running. 39 Running is an ideal activity for them. But it shouldnt discourage those who enjoy running longer and more often. Even lasting running, for example every day or four hours a week, is beneficial to health.
Nor do the benefits necessarily increase by running at high speeds. 40 So running at your own“most comfortable pace”is the best for your health.
A. Running more is unnecessary.
B. It is among the worlds most popular sports.
C. Persons who form good habitshave lower risk.
D. Running can significantly improve your health.
E. Study found participation in running increased longevity.

Dengue fever is sometimes called“break-bone fever.”It produces intense(強(qiáng)烈的)pain in the muscles and jointsand behind the eyes. People get severe headaches. 36 However, most people recover, though some take a long time.
Dengue is spread through the bite of infected(感染)mosquitoes. Four related viruses cause the disease. 37 Scientists at research centers around the world say they are making progress toward vaccines(疫苗)to protect against dengue fever. Robert Edelman at the University of Maryland is an expert in dengue vaccine research. 38
Dengue is now found in more than one hundred countries. About forty percent of the world population is at risk. Southeast Asia and the western Pacific are the most seriously affected. But it also affects Africa, the eastern Mediterranean and the Americas. Doctor Edelman noted that in a severe outbreak this year in Brazil, so many people got sick that hospitals in Rio de Janeiro state had to close. 39 In Vietnam, health officials say patients have sometimes had to share hospital beds because of large numbers of cases.
40 Venezuela, for example, reported more than eighty thousand cases last year.
The W.H.O. says about two and one-half percent die. But people are more likely to die if they do not get help. For now, the W.H.O. says the only way to prevent the spread of dengue fever is to fight the mosquitoes that carry it.
A. There are no cures.
B. It was first recognized in the nineteen fifties.
C. It strikes cities and rural areas mainly in warm, wet climates.
D. Recovery from one of them provides lifetime protection only against that virus.
E. The W.H.O. says dengue is spreading to new areas and producing major outbreaks.

On a quiet morning outside a library in Salt Lake City, a crowd of people are practicing the ancient martial art(武術(shù))of tai chi.
36 Many participants are homeless. In this class, the focus is less on mastering the exercise and more on building a community for transients(流動人員). People have said the class relieves their stress, encourages them to get up in the morning, and helps them to build a routine and make friends.
The free program is run by a retired couple, Bernie and Marita Hart. Seventy-eight-year-old Bernie Hart says he found tai chi to be a comforting way to relax, practice balance and control movement. 37 Therefore, he and his wife started the classes three years ago. The couple had only one participant in their first class. Now, more than 50 people attend five days a week at the downtown library and Pioneer Park, where many homeless people gather together.
38 Utahs homeless population has steadily increased over the past three years, according to statistics from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development.
Eden Petersen has been attending the class for two years. 39 She was homeless before she moved into housing downtown about two years ago. It is this class that motivates her to take care of herself and gives her something to look forward to during the week.“40 Its a circle of friends coming together to do something for themselves and for each other,”she says.
A. Theres a clear need for such activities.
B. What were doing here isnt just tai chi.
C. This isnt a well-trained class of health enthusiasts(愛好者).
D. He recently issued a plan to reduce homelessness in the state.

Lately, it feels like none of us are getting as much rest as wed like. But when you dont sleep well everything gets to you: youre tired, youre bad-tempered(脾氣), your mind is confused. Everyone seems to be getting on your nerves. 36 The following are some helpful tips for better sleep.
37 A solid sleep routine will help your body to grow tired around your appointed bedtime and you wont end up staring at the ceiling while counting a million sheep. Try to limit the difference in your sleep schedule on weeknights and weekends to no more than one hour.
Its also important to avoid exposing to bright lights, including laptops and smartphones for about two hours before bedtime. 38 These small things should put you into the right state to sleep more easily.
Youre not likely to get a lot of restful sleep if your bedroom is bright and noisy and your bed is uncomfortable. 39 As far as the bed goes, we suggest looking into some comfortable mattresses(床墊). The ideal mattress should be firm enough to offer you support. Also, it might seem like a good idea to get some big, fluffy(絨毛的)pillows.
Dont go to bed hungry or stuffed. In particular, avoid heavy or large meals within a couple of hours of bedtime. 40 Nicotine, caffeine and alcohol deserve caution, too. The stimulating effects of nicotine and caffeine take hours to wear off and can affect quality sleep. And though alcohol might make you feel sleepy, it can interrupt sleep later in the night.
A. You could read books, listen to music or take a warm bath to calm your body and mind.
B. You can get some heavy curtains to minimize outside light and noise.
C. Go to bed and get up at the same time every day.

Many diseases and medical conditions are caused by things out of our control. To control and even prevent many of the risk factors that increase chances of dying, doctors urge us to eat healthy food, get exercise, stop smoking and limit our alcohol intake. 36 And it is free and easy. Smile!
Anand Chockalingam, a heart disease specialist at a Health Care Centre, advises his patients to smile.“When we smile, more positive chemicals are released(釋放).”|Smiling is a first step in fighting physical and emotional stress. This is not just New Age advice. 37
Researchers claim that when you feel stressed, your body releases many stress hormones that increase your heart rate and blood pressure, which can help you in danger. However, under great pressure over long periods, these hormones may make people unable to make the best decisions about life. They may overeat, smoke or drink too much alcohol. 38 And all of these can lead to health problems.
A smile may be one way to help. Dr. Chockalingam tells his patients to smile 20 times an hour. To some, that might seem like a lot of smiling. Or some might even feel foolish by smiling for seemingly no reason. 39 Nor is it invasive(侵襲的)like a surgical operation. It is free and has no bad side effects.
40 This relaxation directly lowers blood pressure, improves sugar levels in the blood. If we are smiling, we are breaking that link between stress and health problems. And it just may provide a little extra protection to everyones heart health.
A. Life is smiling at us.
B. But a smile does not contain drugs.
C. Smile can bring us many good things.
D. Once people smile, they are relaxing.
E. They may not get enough exercise or sleep.
F. However, there is something else we can do.
G. Several studies support his suggestion to smile more.

An effective method of cleaning the screen is to spray the cloth with glass cleaner and wipe the screen. 38 Use the cotton stick to clean the speakers as well. 39 A clean cellphone will last longer than the one that is blocked with dirt or oil.
However, a cellphone cant be permanently clean. To keep your phone clean, you should do the cleaning weekly or monthly. If you dont have these items, using a disinfecting(消毒的) wipe will also get the job done. 40
A. A cellphone plays an important role in our life.
B. Never spray anything directly on your cellphone.

Scientists say that failure is an fundamental part for success. Think of a goal that you have set yourself. Whether academic, athletic or personal, the recipe for success is always the same. Factors(因素)like hard work, determination and luck all have a role to play. 36
A new study, published in the Journal Nature, calls failure “fundamental condition”for success. To measure rates of success and failure, a team led by associate professor Dashun Wang in US analyzed three different data sets. The first set, for example, included more than 750,000 grant(撥款)applications made to the National Institutes of Health between 1985 and 2015. 37 They also found two key indicators for success or failure.
According to Wangs research, determination only works if you learn from your previous failures.“You have to figure out what worked and what did not, and then focus on what needs to be improved instead of acting aimlessly and changing everything,”said Wang.
38 The faster you failed, the better your chances of future success. But the more time between attempts, the more likely you are to fail again.
As the paper explains, Wang and his team were able to identify these two key moments in each of the hundreds of thousands of undertakings they analyzed. 39It is decided by learning from failures and failing faster, rather than traditional factors like luck or a persons work habits.
40 Remember Wangs wise words:“Losing doesnt mean youre out of the game; those who stay in it may become the bigger future winners.”
A. What if we added failure to the list?
B. So as a so-called loser,dont feel desperate(絕望).
C. Another indicator is the reasons why you failed.
D. Which one did you think was the most important?
E. What the outcome of an effort depends on has been concluded.
F. The second factor was the time between continuously failed attempts.
G. Using them, the team found the number of failures for each grant application.

The first year of college is the key to setting students up for success. Research shows that if you finish your first year and sign up for the second, youre far more likely to get that degree. So how do you get through the first year?36.
Go to college on purpose
Going to college takes time and money. Simply going because everyone told you to — without a clear end game — puts you more at risk of having just some college and no degree.“37 ,”says Yolanda Watson Spiva, who runs the non-profit organization Complete College America.“You actually go to college because you have an agenda.”
Pick your classes wisely and map out your path.
Some of this is really basic. 38. How many credits will you need each semester(學(xué)期)if you want to finish in four years? The answer: 15 credits. If youre not taking a full course load — that may mean extra classes over the summer — or a longer period.
Go to your professorsoffice
Rick Lopez, dean(教長)of new students at Amherst College, was once a terrified freshman, too. When struggling his freshman year, he went to the professors office. His effort was rewarded: The two of them became close, and the professor eventually became his guider. 39?You can bring an assignment youre struggling with, ask whats on an upcoming exam. You might be able to get an extension on a paper.

College is full of opportunities to meet people. Start with your classes — work on assignments together or form a study group. Join clubs and organizations — meeting some friends can ease the discomfort and support you.
A. Heres what the experts recommend
B. Make a connection with a staff member
C. So what do you talk about when you go
D. Find a group of friends who support you
E. Dont just go to college because your parents told you to
F. You can also talk about stuff thats unrelated to your class
G. For example, if you know you need 120 credits to graduate — do the math

These days, when a major automaker uncovers an electric car it gets a lot of press. 36 Someday, though, electric cars will just be cars. But, for electric cars to really go toe-to-toe against gasoline-powered cars, a few things need to happen first.
Going the distance.
First, electric cars will need to go further on a single charge.Currently, electric cars average about 200 miles on a charge. Longer range cars are coming, thanks to improvements in several areas. 37 Meanwhile, improvements in manufacturing are driving battery prices down, which allows car makers to install more battery cells without driving up prices too much. Electric cars are also going farther thanks to improvements in the energy efficiency of the cars themselves.
38
Car shoppers will also need to think differently about“fueling”their car. When buying a gasoline-powered car, no one ever asks “Where am I going to fill the tank?”Gas stations are pretty much everywhere and it takes only a few minutes to fill up.
39 Charging the battery is not something people usually pull over to do as a task in itself. Even if electric vehicle makers are able to shorten the time it takes to charge a battery, it still wont usually be a quick stop. Ideally, chargers will be placed where the car can be parked for an extended period of time,like in the garage, at the office or at shopping centers.
More choices, better prices.
Beyond that, there simply needs to be more electric vehicles for consumers to choose from. Right now, someone who wants to buy an electric car has very few options. But as more competitors enter the market, electric vehicle sales will naturally increase. 40 Thats already happening as battery costs——the most expensive part of an electric car——begin to come down.
A. A different mindset.
B. A network of fast chargers.
C. With electric cars, its different.
D. They will also get less expensive
E. Better batteries can store more energy.
F. Thats because electric cars are cool, special and futuristic.
G. Charging speeds are already becoming a bragging(夸耀)point for automakers.

How to Get Inspired to Write
All writers need to refresh their inspiration from time to time. Daily life is full of writing inspiration. 36 Almost anything can be a muse(靈感), so try different methods to get inspired for the next masterpiece.
If you always carry your writing journal or a recorder, youll be prepared for any time inspiration comes. 37 Record an interesting dialogue you hear. Then, go back through your notes or listen to your recordings when you have some free time, and see if you can turn them into a story.
Also, changing your environment will help refresh your ideas by creating your imagination. The inspiration might be anything that comes from sitting at a different table while youre writing to going on a trip to somewhere youve never been before.? 38
Writing down what you are observing will be another way to help refresh ideas. If youre having trouble thinking of something to write about, try looking around at your environment. No matter where you are, you can pick an item, a person, or a situation that you can observe, and write about it. 39 Dont limit your imagination, just try to include as many details as possible.
40 Other people can be great writing inspiration, and they are easy to find in a busy, public setting. Travel to a public place, find interesting characters, and watch them for inspiration. Write about their appearance, actions, and words.
A. You can find ideas in books and stories as well.
B. Set down a note whenever an idea comes to you.
C. Inspiration is something that gives you new ideas.
D. Include details on who, what, why, how, and when.
E. Finally, visit a busy place and watch others for ideas.
F. Taking photos while writing down ideas is important.
G. Sometimes, the new environment lights up your new ideas. (廣東省汕頭市金砂中學(xué) 紀(jì)樂佳)

They will probably ask you to keep a food diary of what you eat and how you feel after eating it. 40, but you shouldnt try to change your diet without consulting your doctor since you could be removing too many foods from your diet, which could also cause problems or mimic(模仿)the symptoms of your food allergies.

Whats the best way to showcase(展示)your personality during an interview?Basically, relax and be yourself. But if that sounds scary, go ahead and read the following tips for letting your personality shine during a job interview:
Come prepared and relaxed. Staying calm and collected, you will be able to focus on letting your personality, rather than your nerves, come through. 36 Find a friend to act as the interviewer and ask questions so that you can practice answering out loud.
Greet each person you meet with a friendly handshake and warm smile. 37 Stand tall, make eye contact, and give a firm handshake and a smile when you meet the interviewer. Managers want to hire people theyll enjoy working with, so show your friendliness and positive nature.
Be aware of your body language. After the initial greeting, you want to continue to appear confident. Stand or sit up straight and avoid any nervous habits(tapping your foot, biting your nails, etc.)that could make you appear nervous and unprepared. 38 Staying calm and with good posture is a great way to demonstrate your confidence and approachability.
39 When answering questions, dont dwell on your negative experiences. For example, if the interviewer ask why you left your most recent position, dont say what you disliked about your previous job or blurt out how much you hated your boss. 40
Keep in mind that interviewers want to see the real you. By remaining honest but polite, and by appearing composed during the meeting, youll highlight your strengths and ability to work well as part of a team.
A. Avoid negativity.
B. Show your talents.
C. First impressions are extremely important, so demonstrate confidence right away.
D. When you feel nervous, try to hide you nervousness and keep a smile on your face.
E. Practice answering common interview questions beforehand to boost your confidence.
F. Its also a good idea to avoid crossing your arms, as this makes you look unapproachable.
G. Instead, talk about the positive experiences you had, and stay focused on what excites you about the job at hand.

Are you trying to impress the boss, the kids—or a date? We looked at scientific studies and summarized the best thoughts into these quick tips. They will help you sound smarter.
Plan Ahead
Whether youre in a private conversation or at a company interview, the key is always preparation. If youre interviewing for a job, review the job description and the information about the company. If youre attending a meeting, check the agenda before you sit in the meeting room. 36.
Make Eye Contact
If someone looks at you while youre talking, youre more likely to think he or she is smart.“37 ,”says Bogdan Wojciszke, PhD, a professor of social psychology at the university of Social Science and Humanities in Poland.
Reduce Pauses
38. If you are unconvinced by your own ideas, why should the rest of the room be convinced? As you have probably noticed from watching any public speech or business meeting with several speakers, the“winner”of the talk is usually the person who speaks most energetically and fluently. 39, that speaker will be judged to be more knowledgeable and intelligent.
Restate Other Peoples Smart Points
The person in a meeting who simply summarizes the good points made by everyone else will often be better remembered than the people who came up with the ideas in the first place. 40 , take notes on the best comments your colleagues deliver. Repeat these ideas in a concise(簡明的)and faithful way. Then you will sound smarter.
A. If you are preparing an important public speech
B. Too many pauses make you sound unsure of yourself
C. Make sure there are enough pauses for listeners to think
D. If you are struggling to get a word in at your next meeting
E. Feeling prepared will put you at ease and that will boost your confidence
F. Good eye contact means the other person is responding to what you are saying
G. If two speakers express exactly the same words but one speaks with fewer pauses

When it comes to finding the best college for you, there are more things to consider. 36. Big schools are often seen as factories that pump out graduates, not places that are equipped to offer personalized(個性化的)educational experiences. There are good sides to going big, however. Here are some reasons:
More choices
37. LeightonStamps, a retired professor from both a large school and a small one in the US, said,“Students at a large university are more likely to take highly specialized majors, some of which are typically not available at smaller schools.”
Larger and better-known faculty
Large schools often have faculty(教師)who are leaders in their fields.“At large ones, especially during the senior years, students are often taught by nationally-known experts doing advanced research,”Stamps said. 38, but their size can influence the nature of the research being conducted.
39
Everything is big at big schools, including the availability of resources. For example, Harvard hasmore than 60 libraries!At a large school, youll be able to find a wider range of research sources.
Critical mass
While a large school may not have the closeness of a small college, it has more diversity. 40 because youre surroundedby more kinds of people.
Endless opportunities
Big schools offer more experiences that can supply what you cant learn in class. There are more events, clubs and other organizations.
One last piece of advice:Its much easier to make a big school smaller than to make a small school bigger. That means if you choose a larger school, find your people and make it YOUR best school.
A. Resources
B. Larger schools
C. One important factor is the size of the school
D. Small schools offer students what they cant learn in class
E. Youre more likely to have your views and values challenged
F. This is not to say that small schools dont have well-regarded faculty
G. Large colleges can offer depth and breadth in their majors that are usually unavailable at smaller schools
