Good gift giving is an art. The perfect present can lift mood or improve a relationship. It can repair a wrong
doing, or simply remind a loved one that you care.1. ? We spoke to some experts to help us make a simple guide to gifting.
★Don't add a small gift to a big gift
2.? Some flowers to go with a bottle of grand French champagne (香槟)? Don’ t .When we receive gifts, we tend to unconsciously average out their value, so a small gift attached to a big one will hurt the latter’s influence.
★Gift experiences rather than things
A brand new iPhone becomes old fast. But a dream vacation or seeing your favorite artist in concert will give you memories that last forever. “Experiences often have more thought gone into them.3.. We might remember the tablet that a friend or a loved one has bought us, but not as much as a two-week holiday to Florida- the memories and the emotional attachment are greater than to a physical object,”explained Farrelly.
★Think like the receiver
Let s put it very simply: buy things that your receiver would buy for themselves. That might seem obvious.4.. People tend to use gifts as jokes, encouragements to change one's ways, or to signal something about themselves rather than providing happiness to the receiver.
The best way to get it right is to ask the frank question, "what would you like?"
★ 5.
The last rule is a no-brainer: remember the gift of giving. A study finds that spending money on others promotes happiness. The good feelings you may experience from giving someone a gift they love may also last longer than spending money on ourselves.
A.Be generous enough
B.Is that always the way people do
C.So are there a set of rules to follow
D.And they create more vivid memories
E.But it happens far less than we' d like
F.Spend more on others than on yourself
G.Do you attempt to add a tie to an expensive shirt
If our bodies actually suffer from eating too much sugar, then why do we like it? And why don 't we have such a strong eager for food like, say, broccoli (西兰花),which is a great source of Vitamin C,Vitamin K iron, all things our body actually needs? If it's so bad for us, then why does sugar taste so good? There are hundreds of journal articles trying to answer that very question. Let' s take a look at what they' ve come up with.
Studies have shown that the love children have for sugar may be born with. In other words, kids may have a built-in love of all things sweet. The preference for sweet foods is found to be already evident in newborns, who prefer sweeter formulas (配方). It also seems to be shared by children globally across cultures and climates. There’s further evidence that kids’ taste buds (味蕾) are more sensitive to bitter-tasting foods, further pushing them to reach for the sweets. One study showed that adults tend to maximize their sugar preference at about the level of sugar in a can of soda, but older children still liked drinks that were twice as sweet. The scientists couldn't find a limit to the concentration of sugar younger children preferred. It turms out that the kids still liked the sugary drink even past the point where there was too much sugar to be dissolved (溶解) in water anymore.
Sugar gets a bad fame, but it isn't all bad. Sugar provides our bodies with calories, which we can then change into energy. Children, in particular, need this energy to fuel their rapid growth. Sugar also helps us store fat, which can be drawn on later if needed. Our body knows to pursue the things it needs as two way of signaling our brain to start eating what we’re missing.
As a vegetarian (素食主义者),I know that when I start thinking about stealing the peanut butter sandwich that's been floating around in my kid' s backpack, it' s probably not because the sandwich is so delicious. It' s more likely that I haven't gotten enough protein for the day.
1.What makes so many people study sugar?
A.High sugar intake.
B.Curiosity about Sugar.
C.The love for sugar.
D.The magic effect of sugar.
2.What do the studies show about eating the sweets?
A.Loving sugar is human's nature.
B.A vegetarian doesn't like sugar so much.
C.The older one is, the more sugar one needs.
D.The love for sugar depends on living habits.
3.How does sugar impress us according to the text?
A.Deadly but irresistible.
B.Beneficial but harmful.
C.Necessary but not welcome.
D.Useful but not nutritious.
4.Why does the author steal his kid's food?
A.To store more protein,
B.To treat his illness.
C.To avoid his kid eating more.
D.To meet body' s needs.
One of the most critical roles forests play is relieving climate change. Trees suck enormous amounts of carbon dioxide out of the air and fix the carbon in their wood and the soil. A recent study found that planting new trees over an area the size of the US could suck away two thirds of all the carbon dioxide discharge that humans have pumped into the atmosphere.
“Without animals, it is harder for forests to absorb carbon, as tree species (种类) important for protecting the climate could be lost without animals", Susanne Winter, a program director said at the WWF.
In Africa, many of the tree species that absorb the most carbon rely on large birds and primates (灵长类动物) to eat their fruits and spread their large seeds, according to the report. Without them, those trees would have difficulty reproducing and forests would lose their best carbon-storing trees.
“Forests are our greatest natural ally in the fight against global warming, ”Winter said.“If we want to hold back the worldwide decline in biodiversity and prevent the climate crisis,s we need to protect the forests and the species living there.
Forests also filter (过滤) water-- as water makes its way to lakes or groundwater reserves, the roots and soil separate it from deposits and pollution that it collects along the way. What' s more, forests regulate the global water cycle, since trees' leaves, branches, and roots store or send out water vapor.
Climate models show that forest-cutting down in Central Africa could lead to a 15% drop in rainfall in the US Midwest, and Amazon deforestation (森林滥伐) could cut Texas rainfall by 25%.
Humans also get food, wood, and medicine from the abundance of plants and animals in forests. Worldwide, 1.6 billion people rely on forests for their livings, according to the United Nations. About 300 million people live in forests, according to WWF.
1.What's the purpose of Paragraph 3?
A.To tell where the large seeds go.
B.To show the tree species in Africa.

2.What does the underlined word“ally" in Paragraph 4 probably mean?

B.Competitor.
C.Partner.
D.Victim.
3.How do forests change climate according to the passage?
A.By affecting air and water.
B.By feeding birds and animals.
C.By providing life necessities.
D.By increasing the variety of trees.
4.What can be inferred from the passage?
A.Water should be filtered.
B.The more forests, the more rain.
C.Forests should be globally protected.
D.Half the carbon dioxide is sucked away by trees.
