Make time for friendships.
Nothing makes closeness fade away(褪色) more than never talking to or seeing each other. If
you cherish a person's friendship, make time for him or her, 1 it's just a phone call, e-mail or a weekly get-together.
Remember: a true friend doesn't flee when changes happen. Nothing is 2 for new parents
than to find that their unmarried friends have left them because of the coming of baby. A good
friend is one who stays true 3 it all in life – marriage, parenthood, new jobs, new homes,
and so on.
Make sure you aren't being a burden to a friend.
Friendships will lose if there isn't a 4 between the give and the take. Be sensitive to how
much your friend can and can't offer you –and don't overstep the mark.
Be a good listener.
It can be the hardest thing in the world to do – simply to listen as he or she 5 it all out or
is seeking your advice or opinion. To be a better listener, follow this advice:
Keep eye contact. Offer nods and murmurs to show that you understand his or her point of view. Don't finish your 6 sentences. While your friend keeps on talking, you should gently 7 yourself to focus.
Be in your friend's corner if he or she's not there to defend him or herself.
If you're at a gathering at 8 someone says something bad about your friend, stop him or
her 9 . Say, "Mary is my friend, and it makes me feel bad to hear you talk this way." Sooner or later, news of your loyalty (忠诚) will 10 back to your pal, and it will deepen your friendship.
1.Holly: How I miss the clear water and fresh air in my childhood! But everything has changed, that is, the clear water and fresh air are nowhere to be found again as they were. Above all, a great deal of waste hardly rots(腐烂) away.
2.Jimmy: More and more people are beginning to have a good knowledge of the
importance of a safer and cleaner environment, which in turn forces the business to be cleaned up.
3.Samantha: Organic products(有机产品) are getting more and more popular among people, but we should know the fact that organic products might also do harm to our health in some way.
4.Patria: I’m very much fond of growing some vegetables of my own in my small garden, for many vegetables on sale in markets are actually becoming more and more dangerous as a result of widespread pesticides(农药).
5.Derrick: Nowadays it is very convenient for consumers to find and buy green food in supermarkets as they are clearly marked.
A."Organic produce is always better, "Gold said."The food is free of pesticides, and you are generally supporting family farms instead of large farms.And it is tastier." |
B.Market research shows that small amounts of pesticides can be used on organic products.And about three quarters of organic food in Britain is not local but imported(进口) to meet the need. |
C.Many cities around the world today are heavily polluted. Careless ways of production and lack of consumer demand for environment-friendly(环保) products have made pollution problem more serious. Millions of tons of glass, paper, plastic, and metal containers are produced, and these are difficult to get rid of. |
D.However, today, more and more consumers are choosing "green" and care about the products they buy should be safe for the environment. Before they buy a product, they ask questions like these: "Will this shampoo be bad for the environment?" "Can this be reused or can it only be used once?" |
E.Only a few years ago, it was impossible to find green products in supermarkets, but now there are hundreds.Some supermarket products carry labels(标签) to show that the product is green.Some companies have emphasized it in their advertising that their products are clean and safe enough for people.
F.The concern for a safer and cleaner environment is making companies rethink how they do business.No longer will the public accept the old attitude of "Buy it, use it, throw it away, and forget it." The public pressure is on, and gradually business is cleaning up its act.
Are some people born clever, and others born stupid? Or is intelligence (智力) developed by our environment and our experience? Strangely enough, the answer to these questions is yes. In some degree, our intelligence is given to us at birth, and no education can make a genius (天才) out of a child born with low intelligence. On the other hand, a child who lives in a boring environment will develop his intelligence less than one who lives in rich environment. Therefore, the limits of person’s intelligence are fixed at birth, whether or not he reaches those limits will depend on his environment. This point of view, now is held by most experts.
It is easy to show that intelligence is something that we are born with. The closer the blood relationship between two people, the closer they are likely to be intelligence. If we take two strangers by chance from the population, it seems that their degree of intelligence will be completely different. If, on the other hand, we compare two twins, they will very likely be as intelligent as each other. Relations like brothers and sisters, parents and children, usually have similar intelligence, and this clearly suggests that intelligence depends on birth.
Imagine now that we take two twins and put them in different environments. We might send one, for example, to a university and the other to a factory separately where the work is boring. We would soon find differences in intelligence developing, and this shows that environment as well as birth plays an important role. This conclusion is also suggested by the fact that people who live in close contact (接触) with each other, but who are not related at all are likely to have similar degree of intelligence.
