When we say a person blows his own trumpet(喇叭)，we mean he tells other people how good and successful he is．That is usually an act of arrogance(自大)．But teachers at Wimbledon High School once asked their students to blow their own trumpet．

“Some students are under too much pressure and they find it difficult to accept that they have been successful．”said Ms. Hanbury, head of this famous all -girls school in London．“They push themselves hard and might never be happy．”That's why the “Blow Your Own Trumpet Week” was held in the school．

In the“Blow Your Own Trumpet Week”,the teachers asked their students to share their stories of success and failure(失败)．They also asked them to tell how well they did in each subject．In this way, the school wanted to help students to know they were all good at something and that they didn't have to be good at everything．

Before that, the school ran a“Failure Week”to help students deal with setbacks(应对挫折)．The students learned how to get better from setbacks quickly, so they wouldn't think it was the end of the world if they didn't do well in an exam．

New York is one of (A)_______ (excite) cities in the world.
You might want to do some shopping in New York. Fifth Avenue is probably New York's most famous shopping street, but if you go, be prepared to “window shop” only. This is shopping for the rich. There are other, less expensive shopping areas（区域）nearby, and you'll soon (B)come across famous stores such as Bloomingdales, Macy's and FAO Schwartz.
And if you've brought your rollerblades, then a visit to Central Park is a must. This is a large, open park right in the middle of Manhattan, but if you thought that people came here to relax, sits down for a few minutes and get away from the rush of New York life, then you'd be wrong. Nobody sits in Central Park: they run, jog（慢跑）, and most of all they rollerblade.
When you leave New York, you might be tired, even poor and overweight, but the one thing you won't be is bored!

There are many rules (制度) in the old libraries. For example, no photos, no drinking and no phones. But now a lot of libraries don't have too many rules. They paint the rooms beautiful colors so readers would like to read there. There aren't hard chairs in these libraries.
There are nice sofas in them. Some of them are open 24 hours every day. In the libraries in America,readers can make a 1free call. That means that they don't need to pay any money for making a call. In the kid's library in Denmark, children can sleep there if it is too late. In some libraries in Australia, they have a kids'"story time". 2今天图书馆是孩子们娱乐和学习知识的好去处。

Do some colours makes you feel calm while others give you energy? Scientists have studied the connection between colour and mood(心情) for a long time. Many believe that colour can influence our moods.

Warm, bright colours such as yellow and red are positive colours. They can give people a pleasant feeling. Cool colours such as blue, purple, and green are relaxing colours. They help people experience calm feelings.

Many public places are decorated(装饰) with certain colours in order to create certain moods. Orange makes people feel hungry, and many restaurants are painted in this colour.

People use colour in their homes to create moods as well. Blue is a peaceful colour. It helps you rest, so it is a very good colour for a bedroom.

Colours can also create bad moods. Some types of blue make people feel sad. Red can make people feel angry.

What is your mood right now? Now look at the colour of the walls round you. Does it match your mood?
