    How do people find theirinner talent (潜力)? British author KennethRobinson talked about this at TED. He told the story of Gillian Lynne, a dancerand a choreographer (编舞者) who has worked on manyfamous musicals (音乐剧).

    Gillian Lynne never didwell in school as a child. She couldn't sit for long and often found herselfmoving restlessly (不安地). Her mother was reallyworried about her. She took Lynne to a doctor and told the doctor the problemsLynne was having in school. Then, the doctor said to Lynne, "I need tospeak to your mother first. Wait here."

    As they left the room,the doctor turned on the radio. He then said to Lynne's mother, "Juststand and watch her." Later they found Lynne start dancing to the music onthe radio.

    The doctor then turnedto Lynne's mother and said, "Mrs. Lynne, your daughter isn't sick. She's adancer. Take her to a dance school."

    So the mother did. Lynnefound there were many people like her in the new dance school. They all had tomove their bodies to think. Lynne later went to the Royal Ballet School (皇家芭蕾学校) one of the world's greatest dance schools, and became a greatdancer, she worked on some of the most successful musicals in history, such asCats and Phantom of the Opera (《歌剧魅影》).

阅读下面短文,根据所读内容,在文章后的空格里填入一个最恰当的单词。(注意:每个空格只填一个单词)

If you receive an e-mail that looks something like this:

    ARE YOU GOING TO CLASS TODAY? How does reading this message make you feel? Why did the sender use all capital letters(大写字母)? Was he or she angry, or did that person just forget to turn off the 'Cap Lock' on the computer? The fact is, this e-mail is usually the way that people shout online. Knowing when and when not to use capital letters is just one example of online etiquette(礼仪) —often called 'netiquette'. Virginia Shea's book, Netiquette, lists a basic set of dos and don'ts for communicating suitably with others on the Internet. Following are some of her suggestions.

    First, always remember that you are sending messages to a real person, not just to a computer. Don't type anything that you wouldn't say to someone's face. Also, remember that the person who receives your message cannot hear the tone of your voice, or see the expression on your face, so make sure your meaning is clear.

    Don't do anything online that you wouldn't do in real life. Don't take anything without paying for it, unless it's free. Don't use information that someone else has written, and say it's yours. Don't read other people's e-mail—you wouldn't open your next-door neighbor's mailbox and open their mail, right? Do share your knowledge of the Internet with others. It's a big place with lots of information, and there are many new things to discover.

    Remember that people judge(判断) you by your words as well as your actions, so try to write well. Good writing skills, as well as correct grammar and spelling, matter(有关系). Send polite, well-written e-mail messages to others. If you're uncertain about how to spell a word or which phrases to use, look it up. There are lots of helpful books and websites.

    It's okay to show your ideas online in forums(论坛) like chat room or message boards, but don't start arguments with people. 'Flame wars' in online discussions can be interesting to read, but are often unfair to other members of the group. Express your opinions, but remember that fighting online or offline is just not suitable.

    When you're online, just as in 'real' life, try to respect(尊重) other people's space, privacy and feelings. Remember, you are not the only one travelling on this highway!
