    4．Studying Abroad
    Nowadays，studying abroad gains popularity in China．Many rich parents would rather send their children abroad to receive education than have them educated in China．
    As every coin has two sides，studying abroad is not an exception（例外）．There are advantages for people to attend school abroad．In the first place，he can use the foreign language in his daily life so that his ability in the second language may be greatly improved，as it is obvious that there is no better chance to improve second-language than living in the country where it is spoken．While studying in a foreign country，he will most likely meet many others from overseas and it is possible to make friends from all over the world．This is not only exciting on the social level，but could lead to important overseas contacts in his career as well．He can get familiar with the knowledge updated in science and get the chance to use the first-rate facilities （设备） available．In this way，there is every chance that he is able to widen his horizon （眼界） and broaden his mind．
    Of course，attending schools abroad may bring about a series of problems．The most serious problem is language barrier （障碍）．Most of the students who go abroad don't have enough skills in the language spoken there．As a result，on arriving there，they will find it difficult to understand what the teachers say．Besides，for lack of knowledge of the customs of the local people，they may constantly run into trouble in dealing with various situations．
    Therefore，given an opportunity to attend a school abroad，one must consider both sides of the factors carefully before making up his mind．
    Title：Studying Abroad
    PhenomenonSending children abroad for education becoming （86）popular among many rich parents
    Advantages●Having the best chance to improve the second language because it is in their （87）daily use．
    ●More likely to make friends with other students from abroad．
    ●Getting to learn the latest knowledge in science and have access to the best facilities．
    （88）Disadvantages●Language barrier：Not skilled at the language spoken there，students will have （89）difficulty/trouble/problems in understanding what the teachers say．
    ●Cross-culture problem：Dealing with cross-culture communication turns out difficult due to lacking knowledge of the customs of the locals．
    ConclusionBoth sides of the factors should be considered carefully before a （90）decision is made．

    分析 本文主要介绍送孩子去国外念书越来越受欢迎，但是去国外学习有利有弊，作者分别做出阐述．

    87．Disadvantages 归纳题．上面的表格是在国外学习的优点Advantages，下面的表格是在国外学习的缺点Disadvantages/Problems．
    89．difficulty/trouble/problems 词性转化题．根据第三段As a result，on arriving there，they will find it difficult to understand what the teachers say可知，学生很难理解老师所说的，have difficulty in doing意为"做某事有困难"，将difficult改成名词difficulty/trouble/problems．
    90．decision 句意转换题．根据最后一段中one must consider both sides of the factors carefully before making up his mind可知，在下决心之前要仔细考虑利弊，make up one's mind与make a dicision意思相同．

    20．Body language mistakes you should avoid at work
    Communication is not only about words but also gestures．Therefore，you should be careful about how you use your body when expressing yourself．
    Avoiding eye contact
    When speaking with a workmate，avoiding eye contact makes you look unprofessional．（36）G
    Therefore，you should always keep eye contact especially when you are making a point．
    Crossing your arms
    Crossing your arms shows that you are not open to others and that you want to put a distance between yourself and them．（37）E In order to give others a warm feeling，just keep your arms open．
    Checking the time
    Checking the time every few minutes makes people feel you are in a hurry or would rather be somewhere else．（38）C Therefore，when you are speaking to your workmates，try not to look at the clock very often．
    Bad body posture （姿势）
    Having a bad posture such as dropped shoulders or a lower neck can mean that you are not interested in what is going on around you．（39）F Also，keep your head high．
    Weak handshake
    A weak handshake means that you don't care much about the person you are shaking hands with．Try to greet the person with a firm （有力的） handshake．However，don't forget that a handshake that is too firm can be impolite．（40）A

    A．Therefore，try to find the right balance．
    B．Nod your head to show that you are listening．
    C．It looks like you are not interested in being there．
    D．This shows that you have confidence in yourself．
    E．This is generally considered as a position of defence．
    F．It is important to stand or sit up straight when speaking to somebody．
    G．It also shows that you are not confident or show no interest in the topic．

    19．（36）EBesides，in top-grade restaurants，you can always ask for a pair of knife and fork，if you find the chopsticks not helpful enough．The real difference is that in the West，you have your own plate of food，while in China the dishes are placed on the table and everyone shares．If you are being treated to a formal dinner and particularly if the host thinks you're in the country for the first time，he will do the best to give you a taste of many different types of dishes．
    The meal usually begins with a set of at least four cold dishes，to be followed by the main courses of hot meat and vegetable dishes．（37）CIf you wish to have your rice to go with other dishes，you should say so in good time，for most of the Chinese choose to have the staple food at last or have none of them at all．
    （38）GIn formal dinners，there are always"public"chopsticks and spoons for this purpose，but some hosts may use their own chopsticks．（39）AIt is always polite to eat the food．If you do not eat it，just leave the food in the plate．
    People in China tend to over-order food，for they will find it embarrassing if all the food is consumed．（40）DOr you will always overeat!

    A．This is a sign of genuine friendship and politeness．
    B．Chinese food contains much less calorie．
    C．Soup then will be served to be followed by staple food ranging from rice，noodles to dumplings．
    D．When you have had enough，just say so．
    E．Of course，the main difference on the Chinese dinner table is chopsticks instead of knife and fork，but that's only superficial．
    F．Some Chinese people are so hospitable that they use their own chopsticks to put food into the plates of their guests．
    G．Perhaps one of the things that surprises a Western visitor most is that some of the Chinese hosts like to put food into the plates of their guests．

    16．The most important factor（因素） that leads to success is what you do every single day．Your habits will decide whether you are successful or not．If you have strong and healthy positive habits，it does not matter whether or not you fail today because you will succeed in the long term．Having positive habits does not mean that you will succeed every single time．However，in the long term，there is no doubt that you will achieve all your goals and be successful．On the other hand，if you have strong negative habits，you will fail in the long term．It does not matter whether you succeed today or not．
    Why are habits so important？
    A single positive action will not change your life，but the same action repeated 1，000times will have a great effect on your life．For example，if you go to the gym one time，you won't see a big difference in your life．However，if your go to the gym 1，000time over a five-year period，you will see a big difference in your body．The same principle（原则） is true of finance （金融），health，relationships，work，career，and school．Simple positive actions repeated every single day will have a great effect on your life in the long run．
    How to develop positive habits？
    There's nothing easier than developing positive habits．You simply have to do every single day the action you want to make a habit．If you want to develop the habit of running，run almost every day．If you want to develop the habit of reading，read every day．Habits are created by repetition（重复）．The more you do an action，the easier it becomes in the long run．
    How to get rid of negative habits？
    The only way to destroy negative habits is to stop reinforcing（加强） them．If you are a smoker，stop smoking．If you are a drug user，stop using drugs．Yes，it will be very difficult at the beginning．The first week will be very hard．After three weeks，you will feel a lot better．It's hard to get rid of negative habits because you got a lot of pleasure from these habits in the past．
    You can do it!
    Everybody can change．All it takes is courage and determination．Decide right now to improve your life by changing your habits．Take action right now!Don't be afraid．Yes，you will probably make mistakes along the way．But never forget that success is waiting for you if you have positive habits in your life．If you refuse to give up，success will be yours．
    Title：Habits and success
    Brief introduction•Whether you are successful or not is （71）decided by your habits．
    •Positive habits  contribute to success in the long （72）term/run while having negative habits means the opposite．
    Supporting detailsWhy are habits so important？•（73）Thugh/Althougho your life won't be changed by a single positive action，the same actions and behaviors repeated many times will （74）affect/influencelife greatly．
    •（75）Besides finance，this principle can also be used in health，relationships，work，career，and school．
    How to develop positive habits？●It's very（76）easy to develop positive habits．
    ●Habits are formed if they are（77）repeated．
    How to get rid of negative habits？Only by（78）stopping reinforcing negative habits can we get rid of them．
    You can do it!●It takes（79）courage and determination to change．
    ●Take （80）action right now，for success is waiting for you!

    13．Any car accident is frightening，but an accident in which your vehicle is thrown into the water，with you trapped inside，is absolutely terrifying．（32）DHowever，most deaths result from panic，without a plan or understanding what is happening to the car in the water．By adopting a brace position （防冲击姿势），acting decisively and getting out fast，you can save yo urself from a sinking vehicle．
    Brace yourself for impact．As soon as you're aware that you're going off the road and into a body of water，adopt a brace position．The impact could set off the airbag system in your vehicle，so you should place both hands on the steering wheel in the"ten and two"position．
    Undo your seatbelt．（33）FUnbuckle the children，starting with the oldest first．Forget the cellphone call．Your car isn't going to wait for you to make the call．（34）ALeave the door alone at this stage and concentrate on the window．A car's electrical system should work for up to three minutes in water，so try the method of opening it electronically first．Many people don't think about the window as an escape option either because of panic or misinformation about doors and sinking．
    Break the window．If you aren't able to open the window，or it only opens halfway，you'll need to break it with an object or your foot．It may feel counter-intuitive （有悖常理的） to let water into the car．（35）GEscape when the car has equalized．If it has reached the dramatic stage where the car cabin has been filled with water and it has become balanced，you must move quickly and effectively to ensure your survival．（36）CWhile there is still air in the car，take slow，deep breaths and focus on what you're doing．
     
    A．Open the window as soon as you hit the water．
    B．Surviving a sinking car is not as difficult as you think．
    C．It takes 60 to 120 seconds for a car to fill up with water usually．
    D．Such accidents are particularly dangerous due to the risk of drowning．
    E．In conclusion，if you know what to do in the water，you'll be safe．
    F．This is the first thing to attend to，yet it often gets forgotten in the panic．
    G．But the sooner the window is open，the sooner you can escape directly through it．
