Do you prefer to travel by plane or by train? To my opinion, there are advantages and disadvantages travelling both by plane and by train. Travel by plane is time-saving, comfortably, and you can have a good rest on the trip, but it is too expensive. Unless you travel by train, it is not expensive and quite safety and you can appreciate the beautiful scenery on both sides of the railway. However, it was too crowded and time-wasting, and we can take a good rest. So you can see every coin have two sides. You’d better to choose either of them depend on your own interest and economy.

A blog can be a very effective way of spreading the words about yourself, and your other writing. It can unshroud your knowledge, and create an ongoing relationship with your readers. 1.it’s also an expression of your personality.
An obvious starting point is to post samples of your work that not only show off your skills and writing ability but also leave people wanting more. Post selections from the most exciting parts of your stories but end them just as the action reaches its peak. If you write nonfiction(写实文学), show people what they can achieve, and give them a few steps to get them started.
2.For example, something about struggling with difficulty and many other issues like this. Your writing tips can also be included, as well as interesting, strange or funny things you discovered during your research. Whenever you contact an expert, ask if he or she has any interesting stories you could use. 3.
Give details of coming posts on your blog, so people can watch out for you, or come and meet you. 4.Include photos of objects and locations in your writing, famous people you meet, the views from your window, and your favorite things—with a note about where they come from and what they mean to you. Look out for things that will help your readers get to know you better, know the subject better, or anything else you think they might find useful, inspiring or entertaining.
5.As a writer you shouldn’t ever run out of interesting materials to fill your blog with—and your readers will love you for it.
A. Give tips, information and advice about the subjects you cover.
B. But, like many other new things, the blog is also a double-edged sword.
C. A good blog is more than just a marketing tool;
D. If you only occasionally post things on your blog, people have a tendency to forget you.
E. You may also give background information about your stories and locations.
F. And we can write our feelings, our sense of life and some small things every day on it, just like keeping a simple diary in 140 words or fewer.
G. Personal news will help people feel better connected to you.
Not too big, not too small. Not too hot, not too cold. A newly discovered planet looks just right for life as we know it, according to an international group of astronomers.
Circling a star about 500 light years away, the planet called Kepler-186f is about the same size as Earth. It goes round its star at the right distance for liquid water on the surface. That is a necessary condition for life. But it is not exactly like Earth, it’s more of an Earth’s cousin. It’s not an Earth’s twin. It shares the same characteristics as Earth, but their parent stars are very different.
Kepler-186f circles a star that is smaller and cooler than our sun. But the planet appears to be a closer relative than most of the hundreds of others discovered so far. Some are huge gas-covered giants with thick atmospheres. Others circle too closely to their stars and are too hot for life. For the first time, we can actually say we now have a planet that is both Earth-sized and circles in its star’s livable zone.
The next step would be to look for signs of life in the atmospheres of these distant world. That would take a more advanced telescope. But budget cuts threaten that task, says University of California at Los Angeles astrophysicist Ben.
“In theory, we could do this in the next couple of decades. But in practice, because there’s no money, it’s not going to happen. It’s not going to happen in my lifetime, for example, ”said Ben. However, NASA’s Elisa Quintana believes that when the next-generation space telescope is used, it will find that we are not alone in the universe. In the meantime, the search continues for other worlds where life may find a home. 。
1.What do we know about the newly discovered planet?
A. It was discovered by chance.
B. It has some form of life on it.
C. It has suitable conditions for life.
D. It is an ordinary planet like others.
2.The difference between Earth and Kepler-186f is that .
A. they circle different parent stars
B. they came into being at different times
C. they move in space at a different speed
D. they orbit their stars at a different distance
3.The discovery of Kepler-186f is remarkable because .
A. man has discovered a new home
B. it caused people’s interest in the universe
C. man has found a familiar planet like Earth
D. it can help man know more about Earth
4.What does Ben worry about in the future research?
A. Lack of money. B. No cooperation.
C. His coming old age. D. His weak influence.
CHICAGO (Reuters) - Smoking not only can wrinkle(起皱纹) the face and turn it yellow -- it can do the same to the whole body, researchers reported on Monday.
The study, published in the Archives of Dermatology, shows that smoking affects the skin all over the body -- even skin protected from the sun.
"We examined non-facial skin that was protected from the sun, and found that the total number of packs of cigarettes smoked per day and the total years a person has smoked were linked with the amount of skin damage a person experienced," Dr. Yolanda Helfrich of the University of Michigan, who led the study, said in a statement.
"In participants older than 65 years, smokers had significantly more fine wrinkling than nonsmokers. Similar findings were seen in participants aged 45 to 65 years," Helfrich's team added in their report.
The researchers tested 82 people, smokers and nonsmokers, taking pictures of the inner right arms. They ranged in age from 22 to 91 and half were smokers. Independent judges decided how wrinkled each person's skin was.
When skin is exposed to sunlight, notably（尤其）the face, it becomes coarse, wrinkled and discolored with a pale yellow tint, Helfrich's team wrote.
Several previous studies have found that cigarette smoking contributes to premature（过早的）skin aging as measured by facial wrinkles, the study said, but little has been done to measure the aging of skin not exposed to light.
The report did not discuss the mechanism involved but previous research has found that cigarette smoke, among other things, causes blood vessels（血管）beneath the skin to constrict（紧缩）, reducing blood supply to the skin.
Smoking can also damage the connective tissue (组织)that supports both the skin and the internal organs.
1.The best title for this passage would be_______.
A. The danger of smoking B. Smoking causes skin aging
C. Quit smoking for health D. A survey of smokers
2.It can be inferred from the study _______ .
A. smoking won’t make skin protected from the sun
B. smoking will do damage to skin rather than other organs
C. smokers over 65 usually won’t worry about their skin
D. the age of smokers is not connected with the result of the test
3. From the passage smoking results in skin aging mainly because_____.
A. it will lower blood supply to skin B. it can make you feel tired
C. it can make skin come off D. it can make blood run faster
4.The main purpose of the passage is to ______.
A. inform people about the result of the study
B. advise people how to protect skin
C. warn people not to smoke again
D. introduce a new way of avoiding skin aging
