Do you believe that you aren’t smarter than 3-year-old Alexis Martin, one of the youngest members of the high IQ club Mensa? Preschooler (学龄前的) Alexis’s IQ is 159, which is only one point lower than Stephen Hawking’s. Doctors say the average IQ of a person is about 100. She learned to read at the age of 2. She reads at a fifth grade level and has taught herself Spanish on her parents’ iPad! Now, she is a member of the Mensa Club, which only accepts people with an IQ within the top two per cent of people in the world! Alexis’ father, Ian Martin, said he first realized Alexis was special when she was 12 months old. She could recite (背诵) bedtime stories. “We’d be driving around in the car and she would recite her bedtime stories from the night before. She didn’t just recite them, and she recited them exactly.”Alexis’ father would try to trick her and say that her story went a different way, but she always corrected him. Most 12-month-old children take their first steps on their own and most 18-month-olds can only name a small number of objects and body parts, and follow simple two-step questions. Even though Alexis is a genius (天才), her parents are faced with lots of challenges like how to teach her to make friends of her own age. “Will she go into kindergarten early? We are kind of hesitant (迟疑的) because we do want her to get to that social world,” Ian said. 1.Alexis Martin is a girl who _____________.

With more and more cars on the road, traffic jams (堵车) are inevitable. Traffic jams can lead to increased accidents as there are more cars, with more people trying to get to their destination, all the while getting worse. Although it’s impossible to avoid traffic jams altogether, there are some tips you can follow to reduce the amount of time on the road. Check for traffic jams before you leave. You can listen to the radio for traffic news, or check on the Internet to get up-to-minute information on traffic. If the route you want to take is heavy with traffic, you can choose another. Look for a different route all the time. Most traffic jams happen on busy roads. Using country roads could avoid a lot of traffic. Although the distance you may have to travel is further, it can work out quicker. Set your car radio to receive traffic bulletins. Many new car stereo systems (汽车音响系统) are equipped with a radio system by which you can hear the traffic channel. This way you can get the latest traffic information and change your journey if necessary. __________ Most traffic jams usually occur(发生) during rush hour, so try to avoid this time period if possible. Some jobs offer flexible working hours so that you can travel to work outside of rush hour. Some jobs even allow you to work at home so as to avoid moving altogether. Ask your manager to see what you can do if traffic is a problem for you. Use public transport instead. The easiest way to avoid traffic jams is to take buses or the underground instead of driving your own car.

We all have habits that we want to give up. These are habits which are not good for us in some way or another. A habit is an activity that we have got used to. It's not easy to break a bad habit because we have got used to it, and it has become convenient (方便的). We are so used to our bad habits that most of the time we even don't realize that we have them until someone points them out to us. So the first step that will lead to changing a bad habit is to accept the fact that is not good for you. Since you know you have developed a bad habit, it's best to find out why you developed it in the first place. Find out the reason behind it, as that will help you in understanding why you're so willing to perform that act. There is nothing to feel scared of. You have to face it and then give it up. Find out how bad habits have spoiled (损坏，糟蹋) things around you. For example, a bad habit of getting up late can destroy the schedule (时间表) of your whole day. And, if this is what you do every day, then imagine how many days it has already eaten up. Realize this and make up your mind to give it up. An alarm (警报) is something that will prevent you from performing your habit. For example, to avoid getting up late, set an alarm and decide that you need to make a little effort to reach it to turn it off. Tell your family and friends about your decision so that they can prevent you from performing the bad habit and also remind you of the promise you made to yourself. Reward yourself every time you stop yourself from performing the bad habit. This will keep you encouraged to break the bad habit and at the same time make you happy. There are habits that people have carried with them for years and it will surely take some time to give them up. However, breaking a habit is a better choice than letting it grow into an addiction(瘾). Try giving up a bad habit, and feel the difference in yourself. You will be proud of yourself and I will certainly congratulate you on it. Title: How to break a bad habit
