My father took me out camping for the first time when I was seven. He wanted teach me about animals, insects and trees. My uncles all come along with bows and arrows for hunting.
One evening at sunset, we sat by the fire, have our barbecue. Just then a bird was flying over us. My uncles immediate jumped up and shot their arrows on the bird. Neither of the arrows hit the target. Suddenly the arrows was flying down at us from the sky—they were looked like rain! We ran to escape but fortunately no one was injured.
That day I didn't learn much about animals, insects or trees, but I learnt a impressive lesson about gravity!

It’s natural to greet friends with a smile and a wave. ___1.____ But what happens if your face and body send mixed messages? Would someone be more likely to believe the look on your face or the way you hold your body?
Scientists have recently tackled these questions. They found that when a person is looking at your face, she might not believe what she sees of your body language doesn’t match the feeling that your face shows. ___2.____ Previously, they had found that the tone of a person’s voice can be more important than the words that are spoken. For example, most people tend not to believe a person who says in a flat voice, “I’m so excited.”
When it came to emotions conveyed by facial expressions and body language, most scientists suspected that the face was more important. To test if this was true, psychologists from the Netherlands and Boston showed people a number of pictures of isolated(孤立的) faces and isolated bodies(with faces blurred out (模糊的))that showed anger or fear. 3.____
An angry face had low eyebrows and tight lips. A scared face had high eyebrow and a slightly open mouth. 4.___ A scared body had arms forward and shoulders square, as if ready to defend.
These results told the researchers that mixed signals can confuse people. Even when people pay attention to the face, body language subtly(微妙地) influences which emotion they read.
___ 5.____And if you want to be understood, it helps to avoid sending mixed messages.
A.Scientists feel new to study the mixed message that confuses people.
B.When you do this, your face and body work together to show your friends that you’re happy to see them.
C. Studying such mixed messages is nothing new for scientists..
D.They also showed pictures in which angry or scared faces were paired with angry or scared bodies
E.Body language can sometimes be misunderstood in different culture backgrounds.
F.So, your body language is important for telling people how you feel.
G.An angry body had arms back and shoulders at an angle, as if ready to fight.
When I was about to go back home, it was dark. In order to get home as soon as possible, I hired a taxi. The car was along the road, now well-lit, now sank in darkness. I broke the on purpose, that the driver might be too tired to drive. “When do you go back home in the evening?” “9 o’clock. I’ll go after this trip.”
“Then when do you come out in the morning?” I another question.
“9 o’clock, too. And I go home for lunch and dinner, just as if I worked at an office.” His easiness surprised me, because every time I ride in a taxi, what I hear from are only complaints. They complain that they work , that it is to earn money, that they are bullied (欺侮) by the policeman, or that the corporation leaders are seated, , and enjoy the of others’ work. It seems that they have a grievance (不满意) against everything. But this driver told me, “I find it to be a section chief as I was before. I don’t like management work. I like driving, just for . It’s that I drive without a passenger. So I can earn two or three thousand Yuan a month with ease. Any ? Yes, I never follow an empty taxi. If it goes , I go northward. If it goes along the highway, I turn into a street. In this way I always get customers.
His words showed his satisfaction with his life and the pride he in his job. Such feelings are so among people nowadays as oxygen in high mountains. As an ancient saying , “Neither joy in material gains nor grieve over personal setbacks (挫折).” How many people nowadays can show high ideals by simple living and go far with a calm mind? I couldn’t help feeling curious when I found such a state of mind in a stranger on a cold winter night.

At present we will explain a very old saying that has had a great effect on rock-and-roll music. That saying is “A rolling stone gathers no moss(苔藓)”.It has several meanings. One meaning is that a person who never settles down in one place will not be successful. Another is that someone who is always moving, with no roots in one place, avoids responsibilities.
This proverb was said to be first used in the 1500s. But in the 1960s, the expression “rolling stone” became famous in the world of rock-and-roll music. It became the name of a song, a rock group and a magazine.
Experts say it all started with a song by the American singer and guitarist Muddy Waters. He was one of the country's top blues musicians until his death in 1983. His music influenced singers like Elvis Presley and Bob Dylan. In 1950, Muddy Waters recorded a song called “Rolling Stone”.
A British rock group is said to have taken its name from Muddy Waters' song. The Rolling Stones performed for the first time in 1962.The group's members called themselves “the world's greatest rock-and-roll band”.
In 1965, Bob Dylan released (发行)his song “Like a Rolling Stone”.It is one of his best known and most influential works.
It is an angry song about a woman who was once rich and successful. But now she is on her own, “with no direction home, like a complete unknown, like a rolling stone”.
In 1967, a young man named Jann Wenner started a magazine and he named it “Rolling Stone”. The magazine reported on rock music and the popular culture that the music created. By 1971, “Rolling Stone” had become the leading rock music and counterculture publication. It is still popular today.
