More Than I Had Dreamed Of

From the time I was seven, I had a dream of becoming a member of the Students Union. I always 36  my school leaders for taking responsibility for all of us. So I dreamed of being a leader.

Years flew by, and soon I was able to participate in the elections,   37  I would win. But the reality struck that I hadn’t had a chance. I wasn’t pretty. Girls across the school hardly knew me. I just did not have what it   38  to win a school election. I was   39 .

As I cried in my room that evening, I   40  took a deep breath and decided I wouldn’t stop dreaming. I decided that I would   41  elections again in my final year at school—and I would win.

I recognized that my   42  had a lot of things in their favor. What were the   43  that would work in my favor? I had good grades, and I was friendly and helpful. And my biggest   44  was the faith I had. I would not allow my   45  appearance to hold me back from putting my best foot forward. That evening, I   46  my election plans a whole year in advance.

I realized that girls would have to get to know me and recognize that I had the ability to   47  them. I loved making friends and I liked being helpful,   48  I decided that perhaps I could use these qualities to work to my advantage. In order to learn how to present a great election   49 , I also attended a course on effective public speaking.

Suddenly, I realized that I had   52  much more than I had dreamed of. I had made many new friends and had helped people   53  the way. I had won the   54  and love of my school-mates and they knew me as somebody who would stand by them. I was able to put a smile on their faces and    55  their day.

Every day we go to school and listen to the teacher, and the teacher will ask us some questions. Sometimes, the classmates will ask for your opinions of the work of the class. When you are telling others in the class what you have found out about these topics, remember that they must be able to hear what you are saying. You are not taking part in a family conversation or having a chat with friends—you are in a slightly unnatural situation where a large group of people will remain silent, waiting to hear what you have to say. You must speak so that they can hear you—loudly enough and clearly enough but without trying to shout or appearing to force yourself.

Remember, too, that it is the same if you are called to an interview whether it is with a professor of your school or a government official who might meet you. The person you are seeing will try to put you at your ease (not worried) but the situation is somewhat different from that of an ordinary conversation. You must take special care that you can be heard.

Do you know soon eleven biggest food and drink companies of the nations will adopt new rules to limit advertising to children under the age of 12, a move that restricts ads for products such as McDonald’s Happy Meals and the use of popular cartoon characters.

The companies announced their new rules ahead of a Federal Trade Commission hearing on Wednesday that steps up pressure on the companies to help solve the growing child obesity problem through more responsible marketing. The self-given rules include promises by seven companies who will no longer use licensed characters, such as those made popular through movies or TV shows, to advertise online or in print media unless they’re promoting their healthier products. Four other companies said they do not advertise at all to children under 12.

“I think this is a very good step forward. It’s not the end of the journey but it’s a good way down the road,” said Margo Wootan, Nutrition Policy Director at the nonprofit Center for Science in the Public Interest.

Since the FTC first publicly raised the issue in 2005, many of the companies have started selling products with better nutrition in mind. The companies hope their self-regulation efforts — organized through the Council of Better Business Bureaus — will fend off any new and more strict federal regulation.

Parents are happy to see new rules that restrict the use of cartoon characters such as Shrek, Dora the Explorer and SpongeBob SquarePants. “It catches their eyes when you’re shopping,” said Josephine Thomas, a mother of three boys who lives in Manhattan. “As soon as they see a Shrek or Mickey Mouse, they automatically look at that and they don’t see what they really need. That’s one of the biggest problems when you go shopping.” That’s one reason the food companies have said they will now only use licensed characters to advertise their “better for you” products.

1.The reason why the food and drink companies will take action is that they want to___________

A.promote sales across the country

B.limit advertising to children under the age of 12

C.meet increasing demands from kids

D.adapt to the new federal regulations

2.What can we learn from the text that the seven companies ____.

A.may still use cartoon characters in advertising

B.are going to stop advertising to children under 12

C.Would like to continue the cooperation with entertainment media

D.will make food and drink specially for fat kids

3.What of the following can best describe the underlined words “fend off”?

A.prevent ... from happening

B.draw up or work out

C.pay attention to

D.give a warm welcome to

4.What does Josephine Thomas advise in the last paragraph?

A.kids spend too much on unhealthy food

B.parents are strict about their kids’ food choice

C.“better for you” products are popular with kids

D.ads with cartoon characters mislead kids

Today just as technology changed the face of industry, farmers have undergone an "agricultural revolution". On the farm of today, machines provide all the power.

One of the most important benefits will be the farm computer. A few forward-looking farmers are already using computers to help them run their farms more efficiently. The computers help them keep more accurate records so they can make better decisions on what crops to plant, how much livestock to buy, when to sell their products, and how much profit they can expect. Many computer companies have been developing special computer programs just for farmers. Programs are being written for hog(猪) producers, grain farmers, potato farmers, and dairy farmers. In the future, farmers will be able to purchase computer programs made to their needs. Because of the growing importance of computers on the farm, students at agricultural colleges are required to take computer classes in addition to their normal agricultural courses. There can be no doubt that farmers will rely on computers even more in the future. While the old-time farm depended on horse power, and modern farms depend on machine power, farms of the future will depend on computer power.

Another technological advance which is still in the experimental stage is the robot, a real "mechanized hired hand" that will be able to move and, in some ways, think like a human being. Unlike farmers of the present, farmers of the future will find that many day-to-day tasks will be done for them. Scientists are now developing robots that will be able to shear(修剪) sheep, drive tractors, and harvest fruit. Even complex jobs will be done by robots. For example, in order to milk their cows, farmers must first drive them into the special barn(畜棚), then connect them to the milking machines, watch the machines, and disconnect them when they are finished. In the future, this will all be done by robots. In addition, when the milking is completed, the robots will automatically check to make sure that the milk is pure. The complete mobilization of the farm is far in the future, but engineers expect that some robots will be used before long.

1.Which sentence carries the main idea of the whole passage? 

A.The first sentence of the first paragraph.

B.The first sentence of the second paragraph.

C.The first sentence of the third paragraph.

D.The last sentence of the second paragraph.

2.Which of the following statements is true?  

A.Farmers in the future will depend totally on computers.

B.Both computers and robots have been in use on today's farms.

C.Farmers mainly use machines on their farms at present.

D.Farmers can do nothing without the help of computers on today's farms.

3. According to the engineers,_____________ will be done by robots in the near future.

A.all farm work

B.milking cows

C.most of the farm work

D.some house work

4.What is the best title for the passage?

A.Computer—Farmers' Best Friend

B.Farmers in the Future

C.Robots in the future

D.Revolution on the farm

Hair loss can be an emotionally troubling experience for some women. Luckily, experts do have suggestions on how to treat and prevent this condition.

According to Dr. Robert Jones of the Hair Transplant Center in Oakville, ON, hair loss in women is largely genetically determined—he estimates that nearly 80 to 90 percent of hair loss in both men and women is due to a family history of the condition. But some women can experience hair loss as the result of a thyroid dysfunction, pregnancy hormones or because of side effects of medicines such as antidepressants and birth control pills. Nick Dimakos, founder of SureThik International in Toronto, agrees stress and lower-than-normal levels of estrogen (雌性激素) are other contributing factors to hair loss in females. Low levels of iron and over-use of chemical hair products such as artificial dyes (染料) can also lead to thinning hair, which can be especially difficult for women, for whom hair loss is much less socially acceptable than it is for men. “Women lose about 25 percent of their hair before even noticing there’s a problem,” Dimakos says. “It can be devastating (毁灭性的) for them.”

There is no surefire (一定成功的) way to prevent hair loss, but there are steps you can take to reduce the amount of hair you lose. Dimakos recommends visiting your doctor because early discovery and treatment can prevent unnecessary hair loss. He also recommends using mild hair products, avoiding hair dyes or extensions, avoiding smoking and taking vitamin B12 if you suspect hair loss may be in your future. Wearing hair in a ponytail (马尾辫) or braid (辫子) regularly can also lead to weakened hair that is likely to fall out, so it may be best to avoid wearing these styles too often.

Of course, if your hair begins to lose, you’d better seek treatment.

? Hair transplants

Very few women turn to hair transplants because unlike men, women suffering from hair loss usually have thinning hair all over their heads rather than only in one area. If there is not enough hair somewhere else on the head that can be taken to fill in the gaps, a transplant cannot be performed.

? Minoxidil

Found in Rogaine, an over-the-counter (OTC) product, this is a medicine that lowers blood pressure. But it can also slow down or stop hair loss, says Dimakos. This option may work for some women, but it is important to consult your physician before taking any type of medication.
