  “Hey, Tahlia!How's the model?”

  I had just taken a bite of my hot dog   1   I heard a familiar voice yelling at me from across the crowded school yard.I saw a group of popular girls who were all   2  

  “What kind of   3   are you going to do?An ad for a Frankenstein movie?”More laughter.My stomach twisted into a tight knot.How could they humiliate(羞辱)me like this,   4   the entire school?As I walked into the cafeteria, I   5   the dark scars on my right hand.

  At 9 months old, I knocked over a tea pot and dumped boiling water allover my hands and stomach.My parents   6   me to the hospital, but I had to have skin graft(移植)operation.I was in so much pain!But what   7   me most were the cruel things people said about how I looked,   8   that day at lunch.

  The girls were being supermean to me because they'd heard I was considering doing some modeling.A close friend had suggested that I shouldn't let my scars limit me and that I might   9   a good model.

  But after that   10   at school, I was sure I'd made a huge mistake.Upon arriving home, I covered the mirror with a blanket, fell on my bed and sobbed.

  The next day, I   11   myself to go to school.At lunch my best friend Jesse tried to encourage me:“You can't   12   forever, Tahlia.So what if you have a few scars?Just go outside and show them that you're just as good as they are.”Although I knew he was right, I couldn't   13   standing up for myself like that.

  However, that night as I sat on the bed, my friend's words replayed in my mind.I'm   14   hiding from myself, I thought.How stupid!Slowly, I stood up, walked over to the   15  , and tossed the blanket aside.There, in the mirror I saw a slim, dark-haired, blue-eyed girl, looking just fine,   16   with a few scars.

  The next day I wore a comfortable T-shirt to school.What's more, I had lunch outside the cafeteria,   17   beside those mean girls.They were shocked that I should dare to walk into their territory.I felt   18   too-free and happy.

  Sometimes people still look at me strangely.They   19   and stare, but I don't let it get to me.I have applied to several modeling companies, and at least one company is considering me for jobs.Maybe I'll never   20   posing on the runway, but I do know one thing:I'm done.

Up All Night

—by Rosie Todina

  When you can't sleep, the answer may be as simple as some warm milk.

  Dear Rosie,

  I have had trouble falling asleep at night lately. It's starting to affect my work and my social life because 1 am often very tired during the day. What can I do?

GIA P.

TURIN, ITALY

  Dear Gia,

  Try these things to help you sleep well at night:

  1.Don't get into bed unless you're tired. Read or watch TV until you feel drowsy;

  2.Don't pay bills or do work on your bed. You will begin to associate the bed with activities;

  3.Don't drink caffeinated coffee, tea or soft drinks for four hours before your regular time;

  4.Have a hot bath or shower to help you relax;

  5.Drink a cup of herbal tea or warm milk. Warm drinks can make you sleep;

  6.Play soft music. This will take your mind off the day's activities. It also screens out street sounds which can distract;

  7.Encourage your body to relax. When in bed, begin to breathe deeply and slowly. Concentrate only on your breathing. You will be asleep in no time. If these tips don't help, consult your doctor.

  Do you need some advice? Send your to:

阅读下面短文,掌握其大意,然后从下列各题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出最佳答案。

  When we think of leadership, we often think of strength and power.But   1   are these really, and how do   2   operate?

  Leadership today is not about   3   others to do things.If this is even possible, it is short-term, and tends to backfire.If you order someone to do something   4   their will, they may do it because they feel they must, but the anger they feel will   5   more harm in the long term, and they will also experience fear.

  Fear causes the thinking brain to shut down, making the person unable to   6   at his or her best.If they associate you with this   7   of fear, they will become less functional around you, and you will have succeeded in not only shooting yourself in the foot,   8   possibly making a very good employee or partner unable to perform effectively.  9   has no place in leadership.

  The way we influence people   10   a lasting way is by our own character, and our understanding and use of emotion.We can order someone to do something,   11   may be part of the day work; or we can employ them at the emotional level, so they become fully   12   to the projects and provide some of their own motivation.Today's work place is all about   13  

  As a human being as   14   as a worker, everyone produces just a bit more for someone they like.Leaders   15   the way things work.They know the pay check is not the   16   most motivating factor in the work life of most people.

  The true strength of leadership is an inner strength that   17   from the confidence of emotional intelligence-knowing your own emotions, and how to handle them, and   18   of others.Developing your emotional   19   is the single best thing you can do if you want to   20   your relationships with people around you, which is the key to the leadership skills.
