Although the ability to talk with others comes naturally to some, it is a skill that most of us must develop. With a little effort, even shy people can learn to feel comfortable speaking with anyone.

Speak less and listen more. People love to speak about themselves. In social situations, be sure to ask others about their interests, work, opinions and so on. And in this way you will be regarded as a great talker, though you’ve said little or nothing!

Develop your sense of humor. Take notes of the things that make you laugh and pay attention to what others find humorous. You don’t have to be a great storyteller in order to make others laugh. Or your listeners will think you don’t take yourself too seriously.

Know about present events. Even with limited time, you can have a knowledge of what has happened in the world recently. Pay for a weekly news magazine or at least read the headings of a daily paper. You can even catch the news online these days.

Keep your own opinions short. If you talk too much about your own ideas or achievements,your listeners will get bored in three minutes. Being short goes a long way in social situations.

In short, being a good listener is the half of the success. Sharing fresh information with a sense of humor is the other.

Shadow puppetry （皮影戏） started during the Western Han Dynasty and it has a long history of more than 2, 000 years. It used to be popular in the countryside because it was simple and cheap.

The puppets are usually made from leather （皮革） or paper. It is hard to make them. The puppet-makers have to take 24 steps, which include washing the leather, carving （雕刻） and painting, to make a puppet.

Just like many things that are in danger, traditional arts also face the risk of disappearing. “Many young people still think that shadow puppetry is an old-fashioned folk art, ” said Liu Chaokan, the sixth-generation inheritor （继承人） of shadow puppetry in Yunnan province.

Liu understands why old art forms couldn’t interest young people, so he connects new stories with the traditional form of storytelling. In a recent show based on the ancient Chinese novel Journey to the West, Baigujing dances to a Korean pop song. Popular Chinese cartoon characters, together with the modern factors （元素） , are Liu’s secret in getting the attention of children. “Since they couldn’t understand those old stories, why don’t we show them the cartoon characters they love in shadow puppetry shows?” said Liu.

To keep the old art forever young, Liu thinks they should respect （尊重） its traditions and protect the basic of the art.

2 ． What are the puppets made from?

3 ． How do many young people feel about shadow puppetry according to Liu Chaokan?

When a group of firefighters saw an elderly woman in a wheelchair trying very hard to get to her door last week, they decided to spend their weekend building a walkway for her.

An officer in Missouri said that their firefighters had been coming back from a call last week when they noticed an elderly woman trying to move her wheelchair across her front yard. It’s not even （平坦的） .

“Many stairs and uneven pathways unfortunately led to the woman falling over in her wheelchair while trying to enter the house, the fire department wrote. Luckily, the patient was uninjured, but we saw a chance to help.”

The group of firefighters later came back to the woman’s home and spent their days off building a new walkway to her front door.

“She now will have an even pathway to enter her home,” the fire department wrote. “A huge thank-you goes out to the members that spent their days off helping those in need.”

Since the fire department posted photos of the firefighters at work on their website, their post has been shared hundreds of times with social media users praising the men for their good turn.

“That’s what it’s all about! Neighbors are helping neighbors. Job well done!” one user wrote, with another adding, “It was very kind of you firefighters to spend your free time helping someone in need. Thank you so much for the service that you do in saving people.”

Great to take care of those in need, a user wrote. “What a nice gesture on your days off. Thank you.”

“I live in a community full of care too. You find it whenever people ask how you’re doing because they care, not because they’re getting paid to do so. I hope one can get encouragement when he/she meets something bad and maybe someone else will be inspired and do good things. That would be great,” a user wrote.

A ． Someone asked them to do so.

B ． They saw many elderly people fall over.

C ． The elderly woman was too old to do it herself.

D ． They wanted to do something to help those in need.

2 ． What does the underlined word “gesture” in paragraph 8 probably mean?

A ． behavior B ． story C ． guest D ． culture

3 ． Which of the following could best describe the firefighters?

A ． Cheerful and smart. B ． Intelligent and outgoing.

C ． Polite and independent. D ． Warm-hearted and helpful.

4 ． What is the best title for the text?

C ． Firefighters Build an Elderly Woman a Walkway.

D ． Depend on Yourselves When Facing Difficulties.
