This afternoon, our class have a discussion about being polite. Politeness, means communicating or taking actions with love, can make life beautifully. We should be polite not only to the people but also to things. I love reading book and a few days ago I read that love things or they will love us back. That's because we shouldn't destroy public things. It is no doubt that being polite is a good virtue and good deed as well. Unless you want to be polite, first being polite to yourself, and then to everybody and everything in every situation. When you give love to people and things , you will get back love with sure.

Did you feel like the negative remark was more influential than the compliments that you received earlier? If the answer to the question is “Yes”, then you are not alone. 1.
When negative remarks come about, you remind yourself that it is only someone’s opinion and everyone is entitled (使享有权利) to express their opinions. They have the right to say anything they want to say.2.. You can choose to do whatever you feel necessary with that person’s opinion. When I was a kid, I heard a saying — “A barking dog won’t stop a moving carriage.” That is to say if a carriage is moving and a dog is running after it while barking, the carriage won’t stop because of that dog’s barking.
As to campus bullying, I suggest an exercise to kids who are being bullied at school. 3. Take a deep breath, in through your nose. Exhale out of your mouth, and pretend there is a drinking straw (吸管) in your mouth so that you exhale air in a straight line. This short exercise will be calming, and allow you to stay cool.
4.. I personally do not know anyone who is calm. What I’m suggesting is that you learn to productively deal with other people’s negatively, and take control of your emotions and thoughts. In an article in Psychology Today, Dr Raj Raghunathan says, “The difference between ordinary people and extraordinary people is simple. Extraordinary people choose to listen to their positivity and ignore other people’s negativity.”5.. So you should learn how to deal with negative remarks and not let them control your emotions and thoughts.
A. Meantime, you choose to be affected by the negative remakes.
B. They see things differently.
C. There are many people feelings like this, but you all need to learn how to handle negative remarks.
D. As for as I’m concerned, some else’s opinion is not necessarily a reflection of your reality.
E. Now I’m not asking you to become calm.
F. Therefore, you must stay calm.
G. Please do the exercise next time someone is pushing your buttons or getting under your skin, and you’re about to lose your temper.
In cooperation with German experts, Several scientists from the University of Bradford believe that they finally solved a mystery that has been confusing millions of people: why our hair turns gray with age.
The researchers came up with their results by examining native hair and cells from human hair follicles（毛囊）. They say the secret turns out to be hidden in catalase（过氧化氢酶）, which is causing hair to turn gray.
Catalase production goes down with age and stress, allowing hydrogen peroxide（过氧化氢） in the hair to do its favorite job—making hair gray, and then white, by blocking the normal production of melanin（黑色素）. Melanin is our hair's natural pigment that is responsible for the color of hair. It also determines the color of our eyes and skin.
Dr. Gerald Weizmann, an editor of a journal, says," All of our hair cells make a tiny bit of hydrogen peroxide, but as we get older, this little bit becomes quite a lot, and our hair turns gray and then white."
The new study brings hope for millions of people who have to color their hair: to finally obtain some shampoo that will decrease levels of hydrogen peroxide and therefore restore gray or white hair to its natural color or even prevent it from turning gray.
The researchers are already conducting an experiment with such a drug on a few volunteers with gray hair and expect to get the results in the next two to three months. If everything works out, millions of people will choose between this drug and other previously used expensive dyes. However, even if the drug works, it will take at least several years before it can be brought to the market.

A. The new study shows it's harmful to color our hair with dyes.
B. Dr. Gerald Weizmann is in charge of the new drug experiment.
C. Our hair cells make lots of hydrogen peroxide when we are young.
D. We may restore our gray or white hair to its natural color with shampoo.
4.What can we learn from the last paragraph?
A. Only a small number of people can use the new drug.
