Dear Ralph,

    I'm a senior student. I have be in love with a boy for three years. But he is a shy boy, so I wrote him a letter firstly to express my feeling. And he wrote back. In his letter he said, “We are students. Our task is study. Let us wait to see until we have any chance after graduation.” So after graduation I telephoned to him, asking him about go out . But he said he didn't want to. He just wanted to sleep and watched TV. How do you think I should do? Do you think I should continue to love him and give up.

This is because the environment that they are living in .

    Body language refers to the nonverbal signals that we use to communicate. . From our facial expressions to our body movements, the things we don't say can still tell us lots of information.

    Understanding body language is important. . You should look at these signals as a group rather than focusing on a single action.

    Covering the mouth may be an effort to be polite if the person is yawning or coughing, but it may also show that he tries to cover up a frown of disapproval. , but smiles can also be read in many ways. A smile may be sincere, or it may be used to express false happiness, irony, or even anti-society.

    Pursed(蹶起的)lips.

    Tightening the lips might be an indicator(指示)of distaste, disapproval, or distrust.

    Lip biting.

    When people want to hide an emotional reaction, they might cover their mouths in order to avoid showing smiles.

    Turned up or down.

    Slight changes in the mouth can also be tiny reflections of what a person is feeling. When the mouth is slightly turned up, it might mean that the person is feeling happy or optimistic.

Do you usually feel you're working hard but still can't reach your study goals? Here are some quick tips to help you study better.

♦Study with a partner or in groups

Rather than live in a cave with your nose in the books all day, grab a friend from your class and study with him. .

♦Step into your teacher's shoes

Ask yourself “If I were the teacher, what would I put on the test?” You have probably experienced a lot of your teacher's tests and quizzes by now. . Teachers have specific types of information that they want you to learn. The structure is usually the same.

♦Paint pictures on the paper

You can build your knowledge structure in the form of pictures. It's harder to remember each piece of a puzzle individually than it is to recall the completed picture. .

♦

A hungry brain is an ineffective one. Your brain needs the proper nutrients to keep it going. Because of this, what you eat and drink also plays a huge role in how sharp your brain is. Healthy foods provide nutrients to your brain cells to keep them energized.

♦Take breaks to relax your brain

Your brain is like a muscle. It can be also tired if you overwork it. . If you divide studying into 15 to 30 minutes blocks with quick breaks in between, your brain will feel refreshed, grateful and ready for the next challenge you throw at.

A. Feed your brain from time to time

B. It needs exercise to make it stronger

C. Relax your brain by eating and drinking

D. You'd better learn from them for the next test

E. It's necessary to have a long holiday and have nice food

F. Find ways to connect what you are learning to real life or to other concepts

G. Group studying helps you to engage and process the information more deeply

Snowbirds are people who leave their homes when the temperature drops and head to warmer climates. They are mostly retirees (退休人员) and business owners who can afford to take the winter off. While it is snowing in the Northern states, they are enjoying golf, sailing and barbecues in mild temperatures in the South. Then, after winter passes, they return to their homes in the North.

Most snowbirds are away from Canada and the Northern states between the middle of October and the end of November. They pack up and head to Florida, Alabama, Texas, California, and all of the other Southern states. Some may even go as far as Australia or Italy to escape the cold winter weather. There are special communities for snowbirds in many areas. Snowbirds are also offered special discounts in some restaurants, hotels and area attractions. Several states even have special snowbird resorts (度假胜地). There are several online communities and local resources to help snowbirds get set in their seasonal homes.

Some snowbirds own homes both in the South and in the North. Both homes have everything they will need for their stay, minimizing the amount of packing necessary when moving from one to the other. Other snowbirds will rent apartments for their stay outside their home state.

RVs (房车) are a huge part of the snowbird lifestyle. RVs allow snowbirds to move from place to place on a whim (奇想), bringing everything they need with them. They spend nights in RV parks, large parking lots or anywhere else they choose to stay. RVs have beds, bathrooms, and most other modern conveniences at home. Although the space is small, there is more than enough room for a couple to live in.

    It was our first Thanksgiving in the new house and I wanted everything to be perfect. But my plan for everyone to do some preparation work had been1by my husband's business trip. Even worse, a project for me that week had2two days of planned vacation. By Wednesday, my task of a table with fresh flowers,3drinking glasses and various homemade desserts had already4, I just hoped that I'd find a clean tablecloth and eight5forks.

    In my perfect Thanksgiving, there wouldn't be any orange in my salad because It hadn't made the grocery list. There would be no perfect family photos to record that day because I hadn't got the broken camera6. Someone had brought home the wrong toilet paper, which was the last straw that made me7.

    I don't remember what my son asked me as he was doing some cleaning,8I do remember twisting into that mean-and-tight mom-face before making an9. This combination of noise and anger is a universal signal to kids everywhere that they might as well10me. But he didn't.

    Instead of disappearing from view, my second-grader turned11the cleaning machine and walked across the room to12me. He never said a word. He just13his arms around me, making me feel14of myself until today.

It turned out a(n)15Thanksgiving. The people I loved gathered around my table and dined just one choice of the pie. My dad used a mismatched fork without16. My daughter drew a picture of us where everyone smiled.

    My son took a(n)17to teach me that sometimes we need a hug most when we are18huggable. This is the best gift you can give: One size19all and no one ever minds if you20.

The food, by its very nature, may be harmful for us; it may change while stored; or various chemicals may be added. It may grow in soil contaminated (污染) with lead or arsenic, or it may be watered high in arsenic. Grains, fruit and vegetables are sprayed with chemicals, and these may combine to be far more harmful than one chemical alone. Fish may be caught in areas of sea contaminated with mercury (汞) and arsenic. Meat may contain antibiotic residues.

Furthermore, there are additives we are concerned about. What are added to food to maintain or improve the safety, freshness, taste, or appearance of food are known as food additives. Some food additives have been in use for centuries for preservation—such as salt (in meats such as bacon or dried fish), sugar, or sulphur dioxide (in wine). Additives are also needed to ensure processed food remains safe and in good condition throughout its journey from factories or industrial kitchens, during transportation to warehouses and shops, and finally to consumers.

However, food production is highly competitive. If companies can cut their costs by using additives like chemical flavouring, they are likely to do so. It will increase profits, and consumers won't always realize they are being tricked. As a result, most drinks stating that they are fruit flavoured contain no fruit at all, while most of the rest contain only a small quantity of fruit.

Oh dear! We have to eat, and we just have to find the best food we can, and treat it carefully.  Compared with those in other countries, it is fortunate for us to have access to information, and to have choice available in the shops and markets. Consumers have the rights to know clearly about what they have bought.

Besides, food should be prepared by someone who knows how to make the food safe. Eggs need enough cooking to kill off salmonella. Green potatoes should be thrown away, and the end of a mango should be cut off and thrown away.

It's no pleasure  these any longer because nature is one thing that really must.
