Why do many people take vacations frequently? We need to take time out from work to relax, and just be ourselves.   1.  We should all be allowed to leave our jobs behind usat least for a few weeks each yearand just have fun. This might be something as simple as reading a good book in front of a warm fireplace through to traveling to the most interesting places on our planet. Whatever we fancy doing is worth taking time out for.

As we know, workplace stress is on the rise.   2. These include disease, depression and even death. We all seem to be running from one place to the next, never finding out where we want to go in the first place. I intend to break that trend in the coming days.  3.  I will sleep late, write, watch movies, drink the occasional glass of wine, and eat to my heart's content, ignoring calorie counting. My plan is to just enjoy the fleeting(飞逝的) moments of being alive. 4.  Spend your next vacation the way you want; Do what will restore your mental health. You're very valuable to the people who are close to you, and to those who depend on it. Like it or not, we are all interdependent(互相依存的)in this great life of ours. There's no doubt that you are valuable. Just remember that the next time you look at a mirror and take a deep breath. Remind yourself that there will never be anyone like you ever on this earth again.  5.  1you have to do is just ask yourself what you want to do.

A. Draw up a detailed plan so that you can see more.

B. With it come many health problems.

C. When you finally get home you'll be greatly refreshed.

D. Life is not all about work, or at least it shouldn't be.

E. And only you know how to take a vacation in your way.

F. I challenge each one of you to do the same.

G. For my next holiday, I will do all the things that I love doing.

Suppose you have three things: a piece of wood, a nail and a hammer. Pretend the wood is a person, and the nail is a mean rumor(语言) about that person. If you hammer the nail in, you're obviously hurting him or her. If you then pull out the nail, there's still a hole in the wood, and the damage has been done.

There are many reasons why that nail of a rumor can be so harmful. Rumors are, quite simply, a form of bullying(欺侮). When a person or a group makes up a rumor about someone or decides to spread gossip, it's usually to hurt someone, break up a friendship, or make someone less popular. It's the same thing as teasing, only it's done behind someone's back instead of to his or her face.

When you spread a rumor about someone, you're sending a signal that the person is outside the group, and somehow less worthy of friendship than others. You're making fun of that person or pointing out negative things about him or her. This can let others think that it's OK to make the person feel bad, and make him or her an outsider.

We need to be able to trust our friends, but gossip and rumors can break this trust. If you tell a personal secret to a friend, and he turns around and tells it to someone else, you might feel like you will get burned if you ever get close to him again.

Letting a rumor influence your behavior is like letting someone else make a big decision for you. Let's say you hear that a teacher plans to call a Snowy Day tomorrow because a blizzard(暴风雪) is coming. Expecting a day off, you don't do your homework as usual. The next morning, the blizzard turns out to be nothing more than a drizzle(毛毛雨), and school isn't off after all. You get zeroes on your work.

1.If a rumor is spread about someone, others may ________.

A. keep away from him or her

B. point out his or her advantages

C. not feel he or she is an outsider

D. be hurt if getting close to him or her again

2.To tell the rumor and the teasing apart, you depend on ________.

A. whether it is painful or not

B. whether it is done behind someone

C. whether it is a kind of bullying

D. whether it is spread fast

3.From the last paragraph, we can infer that ________.

A. it is hard to keep rumors a secret

B. rumors can destroy your interest in learning

C. rumors can control your whole life

D. believing rumors can lead to bad choices

4.The purpose of this passage is to ________.

A. advise on how to deal with rumors

B. teach us how to judge a rumor

C. explain why rumors hurt

D. find out why rumors spread fast

It could happen just about any time you step out in public. You get onto an almost-empty bus, but the next passenger in decides to ignore dozens of empty seats to sit right next to you. While you're waiting in line at a supermarket, the next customer insists on standing only two inches behind you and shouting into his cell-phone. You go into a public restroom, and the next person to enter decides to use the next stall. Transgressions(冒犯) like these don't just make us feel uncomfortable; we often feel anxious, alarmed; and violated(被侵犯的). It is the attack of the personal-space invaders.

In any society, shared definitions of personal space govern how we interact with other people. People living in densely(密集地) populated cities like Mumbai, Beijing, or Mexico City tend to require less personal space than people living in sparsely(稀少地) populated places within the country. In America, New Yorkers often have smaller requirements than residents of western states, like Montana, Shenandoah and Wyoming. Because everyone has different standards, gestures that are innocent in one place can be interpreted as opposite in another, especially in Britain.

As the British etiquette(礼仪) website Debrett puts it, as a British person, somebody standing too close may make you "focus less on what somebody is saying than on how close they are to you". Simple acts like putting an arm around someone you don't know may seem friendly in China, but they can make us very uncomfortable. People from many European countries such as France and Spain kiss each other on the cheek when they meet, yet to British person, this seems too friendly and "touch-freely". The website explains! "The British are not backslappers(拍人后背的人) and generally do not show affection in public".

Are British people unfriendly? Far from it. The website adds that they are not as "stand-offish and aloof' as they may seem, but very friendly and helpful to foreigners. However, remember not to be too close. If you are going to come closer than an arm's length, please let them know.

1.According to the passage, if you were meeting a British for the first time, it would be polite of you to ________.

A. kiss him/her on the cheek

B. keep an arm's length away from him/her

C. put an arm around him/her

D. slap his/her back

2.According to the passage, who tend to require more personal space?

A. People living in Beijing and people living in Mexico City.

B. People living in Mumbai and people living in Shenandoah.

C. People living in Wyoming and people living in New York.

D. People living in Wyoming and people living in Montana.

3.The underlined word "stand-offish and aloof' in the last paragraph is closest in meaning to ________.

A. cold and indifferent

B. modest and cool

C. gentlemanly and kind-hearted

D. independent and strong-willed

4.What can we conclude from the article?

A. British people like to sit next to other people on empty buses.

B. British people usually kiss strangers on the cheek to greet them.

C. British people are helpful though they may not appear to be.

D. British people are delighted to show affection in public.

When I was watching a sports event yesterday, I met with an amazing sight. It was not a gold medal, or a world record broken, but a show of pure courage and determination.

The event was swimming. I watched a man dive off the blocks and knew right away that something was wrong. I'm not an expert swimmer, but I can tell a good dive from a poor one, and this was not exactly medal quality. When he resurfaced, it was evident that the man was not out for gold his arms were waving in an attempt at freestyle.

I heard the crowd begin to laugh at this poor man who was clearly having a hard time. Finally he made his turn to start back. It was pitiful. He made a few desperate strokes (划水) and you could tell he was worn out. But in those few awkward strokes, the crowd changed. No longer were they laughing, but beginning to cheer. Some even began to stand and yell things like, "Come on, you can do it!" He did. The crowd went wild.

Just a short year ago, he had never even swum, let alone race. His country had been invited to take part in the event. Even though he recorded the slowest time, this man gave more heart than any of the other competitorsa man that gave his all, knowing that he had no chance but to compete because of the spirit of the games.

1.We know from the passage that the swimmer ________.

A. was not professional

B. had two competitors

C. had a wrong start

D. didn't try his best

2.What can be learned from the last two paragraphs?

A. The swimmer lost his spirit.
