A few years ago, my husband Charlie and I had marital problems. Growing family responsibilities and financial worries took a toll on us and we began arguing frequently, often late into the night.
However, neither of us could take the step that would end our eleven-year marriage and bring heartbreak to our three young children. Deep down we knew we still loved each other, so we determined to work it out. Through countless discussions, we began to close the gulf. The more honest we were, the closer we became.
When 1 felt we were reaching solid ground, I asked my husband to give me an “eternity(永恒)ring”. It was not so much the ring I wanted ； it was the reassurance(保证) I thought it would bring.
We went shopping on a beautiful summer day. We walked hand in hand along a row of jeweller's shops. Finally I found a ring I liked. While waiting for it to be adjusted, the jeweller took my left hand and glanced at my engagement ring. “May 1 clean it for you?” he asked. “It really doesn’ t sparkle(闪耀）like it used to,” Charlie said， as I slipped the ring off my finger. A few minutes later the jeweller was back. The ring shone like new!
On the drive home, I didn't take my eyes off it. I forgot all about the eternity ring. I just couldn't believe how this old ring suddenly sparkled the way it had the day Charlie gave il to me. I had taken it for granted these past years, but with a little polish it could still make my heart bedt fast.
And that's the way it is with a marriage. You have to work at keeping it polished and new, or else the grime (污垢)the passing years will hide the joy. I put my hand on the seal between us and spread my fingers. Charlie covered my hand with his. I felt I was lucky to be able to see the sparkle in something old when I thought I needed something new.

Have you ever heard a rumor spread around by students at your school? Rumors, like fake news misinform individuals and lead them to believe false information.
In an attempt to settle this problem, the country of Singapore has passed a bill that bans companies and individuals from publishing false information online.
This law, known as The Protection From Online Falsehoods and Manipulation Bill, has caused a public outcry it considers inaccurate or(强烈的抗议），as the government has been given the power to remove content that against the public's interest.
Since Singapore's citizens are part of different racial and religious groups, the government fears that rumors or fake news can increase tensions within an already small country.
With the new law coming into effect, Singapore’s government now has the authority to monitor(监测)news sites, social media platforms, and other databases of information to determine whether the content is falsified or can harm the general public. The govemment can order for the removal of fake news, and publishers of this information can receive prison time and fines up to one million Singapore dollars!
Critics fear that the bill threatens their freedom of speech and freedom of expression. Since national issues and world news are generally discussed on online platforms, many are concerned that this new bill will prevent individuals from talking freely and having healthy conversations.
Several companies, including Coogle, Facebook, and Twitter, have offices situated in Singaporef meaning that the new law will affect their company operations. Social media companies in Singapore could face a decline in activity, as users may fear posting their opinions and being punished by the government.
Others are concerned that the law does not clearly state what a “false stateraent” is. Such an ambiguity might allow the government to misuse their power, even though the intention is to curtail the flow of false infurmation and rumors throughout Singapore.
This law does give rise to several concerns related lo freedom and privacy and it will be interesting to see what Singapore 's government will do to deal with this problem.
28. Why are some people against the bill?
A. They think the bill can't get rid of fake news.
B. They belong to different racial and religious groups.
C. They think their freedom of speech may be harmed.

29. What does the govemment have the right to do under the new law?
A. Punish publisthers of fake news. B. Monitor telephone conversations.
C.Prohibit certain people from going online. D. Fine fake-news makers any amount of money.
30. How will the new law affect social media companies in Singapore?
A. Their usere' privacy may be disturbed.
B. Their income will increase very slowly.

Experts note that an unhealthy lifestyle can put you at great risk of heart disease and stroke. So doctors urge us to eat healthy foods，get exercise, stop smoking and limit our alcohol intake. Bui there is something else you can do. And it is free and easy. Smile!
Dr. Chockalingam, a heart disease specialist in Columbia，advises his patients to smile. He says a smile may be one way to help your heart. “When we smile，the brain wiring changes. The chemicals that are released arc more positive. ” He says smiling is the first step in fitting physical and emotional stress and its sometimes harmful effects on human health. This is not just New Age advice. Several studies support his opinion.
When you feel stressed or under pressure，your body releases many natural hormones (荷尔蒙）including adrenaline and cortisol. Adrenaline increases your heart rate and blood pressure. Cortisol is the body ’ s main stress hormone. It increases sugar in the bloodstream. If you are truly in danger, these hormones can help you. They are part of what we call our fight-or-flight response.
However, when we are stressed for a long period t these stress hormones are ever-present in our bodies. And that, medical researchers warn, may lead to health problems.
Researchers say the connection between stress and heart disease is still unclear. However, they claim that when people are stressed for long periods of time, they may have an unhealthy lifestyle, which can lead to health problems.
Dr. Chockalingam says a smile may be one way to help. He telk his patients to smile 20 limes an hour. To some, that might seem like a lot of smiling. Or some might even feel foolish…smiling for seemingly no reason. But a smile does not involve drugs. It is not invasive like a surgical operation. It is free and it has no bad side effects.
“Once people smile, they are relaxing. This relaxation directly lowers blood pressure, improves sugar levels in the blood. If we are smiling, we are breaking that
link between stress and health. M And it just may provide a little extra protection to everyone's heart health.
32. Which of the following agrees with Dr. Chockalingam' s opinion?
A. Smile has the same effects as laughter.
B. Smile can be used to take the place of medicine.
C. Smile is better than any healthy lifestyle to health.
D. Smile can make our bo
