Last weekend I happened to meet some American tourists at the gate of Summer Palace. I greeted them with English and then we begin to chat. I got to know they were college students travel in China, most of whom was fond of Chinese medicine. They were busy taking photo and were surprised at the changes that had been taken place in the past few years. After that, we went boating and had a good time. We exchanged our email addresses such that we could write to each other in the future. I was happily to have a chance to practise your oral English.

Simple Ways to Build Trust
The most valuable thing you can have is trust. When there is no trust, it becomes hard to get anything done.1. Then think of another one with very little trust.
Which one do you prefer?
We can all be better off with more trust in our lives. And I’m going to show you a few things you can do to build trust.
Be honest. Honesty is the basis of any relationship. Be true to your word and keep your promises.
Share honest information, even if it’s to your disadvantage.
Ask open-ended questions. 2. Open-ended questions give your friends chances to tell you about themselves. Ask more questions based on the answers that you get.
Don’t be perfect. There is always something fishy(可疑的) about someone who seems to have everything going for them. 3. This sends a message that you’re not hiding anything and that you want to build trust.
Say what you mean.4. When you build up a reputation of saying what you mean, people don’t have to second-guess what you’re trying to say. This helps you win trust.
Don’t blame others.5. Be brave to take responsibility and then decide what you’re going to do next. Don’t waste the present thinking about the past which can’t be changed. A person that doesn’t blame gets the trust of others quickly.
A. If you think it’s a bad idea, say so.
B. When things go wrong, don’t point the finger at them.
C. Value long-term relationships more than short-term success.
D. Don’t waste your energy hiding your mistakes or weaknesses.
E. Think of one of your relationships where there is a lot of trust.
F. Learn more about your friends and be interested in their answers.
G. Trust may be the most important part in successful relationships.
If you want to be productive, you must complete work. Almost everything we do has many stages to completion and in many situations, you don't actually create value until you finish the last stage. Farmers can't sell their grain until it is harvested. Automakers can't sell cars that have made it 90% of the way through the assembly line(生产线). Most employers aren't going to pay you for having a degree unless you finished the last class and graduated.
Now all those things require starting, but if you have work in progress, the most valuable thing you can do is to pick something and finish it. Finishing is where you start benefiting from the value you've created. I've noticed that many successful people aren't the ones who are the smartest or have the best ideas. They are often the ones who do the best job of taking an idea and completing it. A good idea fully carried out is better than a great idea that never gets completed.
Does this mean you need to finish everything you start? Not necessarily, but if you don't think something is worth finishing, be honest with yourself and terminate the project. Don't leave hundreds of half finished efforts lying around physically or mentally acting like you are going to come back and pick them up. If you need to drop something , do so strategically and intentionally. If you've put significant effort into a project, you may still benefit from finishing it even if you wouldn't start it again based on changed circumstances. For example, if you are in your last few months before graduating from college and realize you don't want to career in what you are majoring in, you probably should go ahead and graduate because there is significant value in having the degree---even if you don't intend to actually work in that field.
What projects do you have that are currently in progress? Can you find something and finish it?

Getting rid of dirt, in the opinion of most people, is a good thing. However, there is nothing fixed about attitudes to dirt.
In the early 16th century, people thought that dirt on the skin was a way to block out disease, as medical opinion had it that washing off dirt with hot water could open up the skin and let illnesses in. A particular danger was thought to lie in public baths. By 1538, the French king had closed the bath houses in his kingdom. So did the king of England in 1546. Thus it began a long time when the rich and the poor in Europe lived with dirt in a friendly way. Henry IV, King of France, was famously dirty. Upon learning that a nobleman had taken bath, the king ordered that, to avoid the attack of disease, the nobleman should not go out.
Though the belief in the merit of dirt was long-lived, dirt has no longer been regarded as a nice neighbor ever since the 18th century. Scientifically speaking, cleaning away dirt is good to h ealth. Clean water supply and hand washing are practical means of preventing disease. Yet, it seems that standards of cleanliness have moved beyond science since World War Ⅱ. Advertisements repeatedly sell the idea: clothes need to be whiter than white, cloths ever softer, surfaces to shine. Has the hate for dirt, however, gone too far?
Attitudes to dirt still differ hugely nowadays. Many first-time parents nervously try to warn their children of touching dirt, which might be responsible for the spread of disease. On the contrary, Mary Ruebush, an American immunologist(免疫学家), encourages children to play in the dirt to build up a strong immune system. And the latter position is gaining some ground.

A.they believed disease could be spread in public baths

C.they lived healthily in a dirty environment
D.they considered bathing as the cause of skin disease
2.The underlined word “merit” in paragraph 3 means ______ .
A.weakness B.influence
C.strength D.feature
3.How does the passage mainly develop?

C.By following the order of time. D.By making comparisons.
4.What is the author’s purpose in writing the passage?
A.To call attention to the danger of dirt.
B.To stress the role of dirt.
