The Healthy Habits Survey (调查) shows that only about one third of American seniors have correct habits. Here are some findings and expert advice.
1.How many times did you brush your teeth yesterday?
·Finding: A full 33% of seniors brush their teeth only once a day.
·Step: Remove the 300 types of bacteria in your mouth each morning with a batteryoperated toothbrush. Brush gently for 2 minutes at least twice a day.
2.How many times did you wash your hands or bathe yesterday?
·Finding: Seniors, on average, bathe fewer than 3 days a week. And nearly 30% wash their hands only 4 times a day — half of the number doctors recommend.
·Step: We touch our faces around 3,000 times a day — often inviting germs (病菌) to enter our mouth, nose, and eyes. Use toilet paper to avoid touching the door handle. And, most important, wash your hands often with hot running water and soap for 20 seconds.
3.How often do you think about fighting germs?
·Finding: Seniors are not fighting germs as well as they should.
·Step: Be aware of germs. Do you know it is not your toilet but your kitchen sponge (海绵) that can carry more germs than anything else? To kill these germs, keep your sponge in the microwave for 10 seconds.

When a new school year starts, the superprotective Chinese parents follow their children everywhere to help deal with all the enrollment procedures (入学手续) and get them settled in their dormitories.
However, the new policy of Tsinghua University this semester is sending a message: Boys and girls, it's time to become independent.
On movein day, a yellow line was drawn across the entrance of the school area, separating parents from their children. The students themselves had to spend about three hours registering (注册) and finding their dormitories.
- 17 -
By doing this,_the university is asking students to “start this new adventure by standing on their own feet”, said Chen Jining, president of Tsinghua.
Following Tsinghua, other universities have also made policies to encourage students to enroll alone.
Oujiang College, at Wenzhou University in Zhejiang, has opened an online platform (平台) for freshmen to contact senior schoolmates who can guide them on enrollment day. Renmin University asked senior students to return to their hometowns and accompany freshmen to school.
This change has excited many freshmen. Feng Lei, a Tsinghua freshman from Gansu province, took a train to Beijing with only one schoolmate. “It's my first long trip without my parents, and I am quite excited about it,” he said, “Coming to the university begins a new stage of my life, and I should learn to take care of myself from the start.”
Although some say such policies are not enough to make students independent, many believe it can help start to change the situation. “Such campaigns help students realize they have to live on their own,” said Xiong Bingqi, vicepresident of the 21st Century Education Research Institute.
“The lack of independence has been a major concern for kids born in the 1990s, as parents arranged everything, which hampered (阻碍) children's allaround development,” Xiong added.
5.The underlined word “this” in Paragraph 4 probably refers to ________.
A. drawing a yellow line
B. separating freshmen from their parents
C. encouraging freshmen
D. getting freshmen to enroll alone
6 If you are a freshman of Tsinghua, you should ________ according to the policy.
A. finish registering alone
B. settle in your dormitory with the help of your mother
C. travel to the university by yourself
D. find a senior schoolmate to guide you on enrollment day
7.From the passage we can learn that ________.
A. senior students from Oujiang College should accompany freshmen to school
B. all freshmen of Tsinghua are excited by the policy
C. not all universities ask their freshmen to enroll alone
- 17 -
D. Feng Lei, excited by the policy, went to Tsinghua alone
8.According to Xiong Bingqi, ________.
A. children's lack of independence hampered their allaround development
B. the policy can help students realize they should be independent
C. parents are concerned about kids born in the 1990s
D. the policy is a real adventure for Tsinghua University
C
BEIJING—China's Beijing and Shanghai cities and Guangdong Province on Sunday published plans to gradually allow migrant workers'(外来务工人员) children to enter senior high schools and sit college entrance exams locally.
They are the latest in a total of 13 provinces and municipalities(市) to formulate plans to ensure that rural children who have followed their parents to cities can enjoy the same rights as their urban peers in education.
Beijing will allow migrant workers' children to attend local vocational schools in 2013 and allow them to be matriculated by universities after graduating from the vocational programs in 2014, said a statement from the city's commission of education.
Shanghai took a step further, saying it will allow migrant children in the city to enter local senior high schools, vocational schools and sit college entrance exams (commonly known as gaokao) locally starting in 2014.
Guangdong has asked its cities to start recruiting(招收)migrant workers' children in local senior high schools in 2013. The province will allow these children to sit gaokao and compete with local residents on an equal feeting in college entrance starting in 2016, Luo said the restrictions would be relaxed gradually and “step by step” as the province must solve the conflict between its gigantic migrant population and a scarcity of education resources.
Migrant workers, whose children could be benefited by the new plans of the three regions, must have residential permits, stable jobs and incomes, and meet other local requirements, according to the plans.
China's hukou, or household registration system, used to confine children to attending schools in their home provinces. A 2003 regulation amended this by allowing migrant workers' children to receive the nineyear compulsory education in cities where their parents work.
Official figures show that China has more than 250 million farmersturnedworkers
- 17 -
living in cities. An estimated 20 million children have migrated with their parents to the cities.
9.What's the best title of this passage?
A.China's educational reform on the way
B.Migrants' dreams come true
C.Reform plans published for migrant children's education
D.Migrants ask for equal rights in education
10.Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?
A.Beijing,Shanghai and Guangdong took the lead in making plans for migrant children's education.
B.There are altogether 13 provinces and municipalities that have made plans for migrant children's education.
C.Beijing will allow migrant workers' children to enter the local school in 2013.
D.Migrant workers' children began to receive senior high school education in cities where their parents work in 2003.
11.Which of the following words can the underlined word“confine” be replaced by?
A.limit B.prevent
C.protect D.resist
12.Which of the following statements can be inferred according to the passage?
A.Guangdong will allow migrant workers' children to sit gaokao locally in 2016.
B.China's hukou is now no longer important and should be cancelled.
C.The Chinese government should continue deepening the educational reform.
D.It is likely that not all migrant workers' children can enter senior high schools or sit gaokao in Beijing, Shanghai and Guangdong with the new plans polished.

Hi, I'm Michael J. Lindell, Inventor, Manufacturer, and President of My Pillow Corporation. Years ago, like you, I found myself extremely frustrated with my pillow going flat. Most pillows are designed to break down. I would wake up in the morning with a sore arm, my neck would hurt, my fingers would be numb, and I would toss and turn all night not knowing why. I tried many different pillows on the market and none of them worked. So, I started to research pillows and study sleep disorders. I was determined to create the world's healthiest, most comfortable, and strongest pillow. My Pillow uses our unique, patented medical fill that stays cool, corresponds to your exact individual needs regardless of sleep position, and stays healthy for your full 10year guarantee.

How to Sell Your Ideas to Your Boss
Do you have ideas that you are just dying to share? Ideas are exciting but they are not always met with much acceptance. __16_ Here are some suggestions that might increase your chances.
17__ You don't want to get stuck when you are questioned. Who will the idea benefit? Why do you think it will succeed? How will you measure its success? When and where will you perform it? Predict the kinds of questions that will be asked to be better prepared to respond quickly without any hesitation.
Practice your expressing. You don't want to come across nervous and stammer (口吃) through your talk. Few people want to trust someone who appears unconfident. 18__ So, just as an old saying goes “Practice makes perfect”, read aloud what you have in your mind again and again until you think that is your best.
Reach agreement. Share your idea with people on your team you trust and get their opinions. If they support your idea and understand its benefits, they will be a great back up when you put forward the idea in the department meeting._19_
Give your idea a concrete description. If your idea is completely new, your boss might have a difficult time catching you. 20_ You want the boss to have an “Ah, I get it\” moment. Showing him or her that “it's like this, only different,\” is easier to communicate and sell.
Some of the greatest ideas in history were rejected several times until they were eventually accepted. So even if you follow all these steps and your idea is rejected, don't lose heart.
A. Have a plan in mind.
B. Prepare some questions ahead.
C. That makes you look inexperienced.
- 17 -
D. Paint a picture to show how the idea works and how it will be used.
E. It's harder to say no to a group who is in agreement than it is no one voice.
F. If you practice much ahead of time, you will get your idea across more smoothly.
G. In fact, getting your boss to take your ideas might be quite a difficult task.

With a _23__ at the boy, the contractor replied,“There is a story about three diggers.

You know, that is also how I got 38__ I am now. I worked hard and wore a striped (条纹的) shirt. My boss __39__ me. I also became a boss eventually.”

I wish you great success and rapid progress in learning Chinese . I am expecting to hearing from you soon .
