Some years ago, on a hot summer day in south Florida, a little boy decided to go for a swim in the cold swimming hole behind his house.

In a hurry to dive into the cool water, he did not realize an alligator(短吻鳄)was swimming towards the shore. His mother in the house, looking out of the window, saw the two as they got closer and closer together. In fear, she ran towards the water, yelling to the son as loudly as she could.

It was too late. The alligator reached him.

From the dock, the mother grabbed her little boy by the arms just as the alligator got his legs. That began an incredible tug of war(拔河)between the two. The alligator was much stronger than the mother, but the mother would not let go. A farmer happened to drive by, heard her screams, ran from his truck, and shot the alligator.

Amazingly, after weeks and weeks in the hospital, the little boy survived. His leg were extremely scarred by the animal’s attack, and on his arms were scratches (抓痕) from mothers’ fingernails where she had tried to hang on to the son she loved.

The newspaper reporter who interviewed the boy asked if he would show him his scars. The boy lifted his pant legs . And then, he proudly said to the reporter: “But look at my arms. I have great scars on my arms, too. I have them because my mom would not let go.”

You and I can identify with (理解) that little boy. We have scars, too. No, not from alligator, or anything quite so dramatic . But the scars of a painful past. Some of those scares are ugly and have caused us deep regret.

But some wounds, my friend, are because someone has refused to let go. In your struggle, maybe someone has been there holding on to you.

Sometimes willpower is a lot like the television remote control hard to find just when you want it most.1.But there are ways to increase your will power.

Don’t try to change your economic situation, win a promotion and lose weight all on the same morning. Set one clear, specific goal and make a realistic plan to achieve it. Extra willpower sometimes requires extra energy, so don’t spread yourself too thin.2.

Whatever your goal is, don’t expect to achieve it overnight. 3.If you are trying to kick a coffee habit, start by replacing your morning cup of coffee with a glass of water, instead of promising never to drink coffee again. Congratulate yourself on the small achievements. These successes help your willpower grow.

4.Ask friends, family or colleagues for assistance and tell them exactly how they can help. If your credit card bills have risen, for instance, let friends know that you are cutting back on expenses. Suggest having a common dinner instead of meeting at an expensive restaurant. Find support group or organization related to your goal and attend their meetings. You can get valuable advice, understanding and information.

If possible, change your environment to encourage positive behavior. Want to get in shape? Keep an set of workout clothes in your office as a reminder to stop by the gym on the way home. Quitting smoking? 5.

B. Focus on one goal at a time.

C. Change your environment to change your life.

I had worried myself sick over Simon's mother coming to see me. I was a new teacher, and I gave an honest account of the students' work. In Simon's case,the grades were awfully low. He couldn't read his own handwriting. But he was a bright student. He discussed adult subjects with nearly adult comprehension. His work in no way reflected his abilities.

So when Simon's mother entered the room, my palms (手掌心) were sweating. I was completely unprepared for her kisses on both my cheeks. “I came to thank you,” she said, surprising me beyond speech. Because of me, Simon had become a different person. He talked of how he loved me, he had begun to make friends, and for the first time in his twelve years, he had recently spent an afternoon at a friend's house. She wanted to tell me how grateful she was for the self-respect I had developed in her son. She kissed me again and left.

I sat, stunned, for about half an hour,wondering what had just happened. How did I make such a life changing difference to that boy without even knowing it?What I finally came to remember was one day, several months before,when some students were giving reports in the front of the class, Jeanne spoke quietly,and to encourage her to raise her voice, I had said, “Speak up. Simon's the expert on this. He is the only one you have to convince, and he can't hear you in the back of the room.” That was it. From that day on, Simon had sat up straighter, paid more attention, smiled more,and became happy. And it was all because he happened to be the last kid in the last row. The boy who most needed praise was the one who took the last seat that day.

It taught me the most valuable lesson over the years of my teaching career, and I'm thankful that it came early and positively. A small kindness can indeed make a difference.

A glass a day keeps obesity at bay.Alcohol has always been thought to cause weight gain because of its high sugar content,but new research suggests a glass a day could form part of a diet.Looking at past studies they found that,while heavy drinkers do put on weight;those who drink in moderation can actually lose weight.

A spokesman for the research team at Navarro University in Spain says,“Light to moderate alcohol intake,especially of wine,may be more likely to protect against,rather than promote,weight gain”.The International Scientific Forum on Alcohol Research reviewed the findings and agreed with most of the conclusions,particularly that current data do not clearly indicate if moderate drinking increases weight.

Boston University’s Dr.Harvey Finkel found that the biologic mechanisms(生物学机制)relating alcohol to changes in body weight are not properly understood.His team pointed out the strong protective effects of moderate drinking on the risk of getting conditions like diabetes(糖尿病),which relate to increasing obesity.Some studies suggest that even very obese people may be at lower risk of diabetes if they are moderate drinkers.

The group says alcohol provides calories that are quickly absorbed into the body and are not stored in fat,and that this process could explain the differences in its effects from those of other foods.They agree that future research should be directed towards assessing the roles of different types of alcoholic drinks,taking into consideration drinking patterns and including the past tendency of participants to gain weight.

For now there is little evidence that consuming small to moderate amounts of alcohol on a regular basis increases one’s risk of becoming obese.What’s more,a study three years ago suggested that resveratrol,a compound present in grapes and red wine,destroys fat cells.

1.The passage is mainly for those__________.

A.who produce wine

B.who have a drinking habit

C. who go on a diet

D.who are eager to lose weight

2.The underlined phrase“in moderation”in the first paragraph means_________.

A.excitedly B.carefully C.properly D.frequently

3.What can we learn from the passage?

A.Current data clearly show that moderate drinking increases weight.

B.Resveratrol is proved to increase the risk of becoming fat.

C.The specific roles of different types of alcoholic drinks are very clear.

D.The research found moderate drinking has a strong protective effect.

4.What is most likely to be discussed in the paragraph that follows?

A.How to do some easy experiments.

B.How to reduce the calories contained in wine.

C.How to make wine in a healthy way.

D.How to prove the finding mentioned above.
