    How to become a better reader?

    Language and literacy(读写能力) are among mankind's greatest inventions. Evolving and even dying over the course of human history, languages are a reflection of our cultural and societal attitudes. Most humans acquire language in early childhood and speak fluently when they are about three years old, but our continued relationship with language gives shape and meaning to our lives.

    ⒈Take it slow

    Many readers feel that they read too slowly, especially compared with others but the truth is that the faster you read, the less likely you are to comprehend fully what you're reading.  Reading is a lifelong process; learning to read closely and slowly will help you become faster over time without missing anything.

    ⒉

    When humans first began reading written words, it was unusual to read in silence. Though general inappropriate for commuters or for late-night adventurers, reading out loud is one of the best ways to improve your reading ability.  If so, you will begin to read more accurately and with better vocal expression. Try listening to the author reading their own work-you'll be surprised to find how clearly it comes through on the page.

    ⒊Write

     How and what you read affects how and what you write, and the best readers often make the best writers. But while much can be learned from close, repeated readings, there are many secretive pleasures to language that can only be experienced through the practice of writing.

A. Read aloud.

B. Get into the rhythm of the authors voice.

C. Here are 3 ways to become a better reader.

D. Writing and reading go hand -in-hand.

E. Try writing every day for a month; you will never read the same again.

F. The ability to read is important to form an identity and express one's feelings.

G. In that case, do not hesitate to re-read the passage.

    It's easy to spot signs of physical suffering, but much emotional pain can be easily masked.{#blank#}1{#/blank#} “We don't tend to have conversations about mental well-being,” says Dr. Barbara Van Dahlen, a clinic psychologist. Simply asking someone “How are you” may just get “Fine, thank you”, says Van Dahlen. “It's important to be aware of what could lead to somebody needing help they're afraid to ask for,” she adds. The following are four signs a friend might need help.

    {#blank#}2{#/blank#} If you sense something different about the way your friend is acting — maybe he's not smiling much these days, for instance — trust your feelings and reach out. “Try saying, ‘I see these things. I care about you. Can I be of help?'”, Van Dahlen says.

    He's unusually unhappy or annoyed.

    {#blank#}3{#/blank#} “It may take more than one time to follow up if you're talking to someone who is upset,” Van Dahlen says, “but if a friend responds with anger, that could mean you're onto something.”

    He's less put together than usual.

    Drinking more and ignoring personal hygiene (卫生) can be signs that someone is in trouble. Don't consider these behaviors are nothing.{#blank#}4{#/blank#} He seems overwhelmed (压倒) by life.

    No one is happy all the time, but if your once optimistic friend can't find anything to be hopeful about, he may be having thoughts of worthlessness, sadness and something negative. “{#blank#}5{#/blank#}” says Van Dahlen, “so that more people can get the help they need.”

A. He's acting a bit more withdrawn.

B. He doesn't seem like himself lately.

C. Instead treat them as a sign to care for your friend.

D. Getting angry quickly and easily can be a sign that something is wrong.

E. It's a constant effort to bring into the open discussions about mental health.

F. Many people avoid talking about it no matter how close they are to someone.

G. We want people to get comfortable being more open and discussing mental health.

    Nowadays, many people do not read for pleasure. The Internet and television have become most people's main form of entertainment, and reading is becoming a thing of the past. {#blank#}1{#/blank#} And there are ways to make it even more enjoyable, whether you do it frequently or just for assignments.

    Indentify what kind of reading you want to enjoy.

    Believe it or not, people enjoy different kinds of reading. Some people do research, some people read to learn how to do things, and some people read in order to enjoy stories or poetry. {#blank#}2{#/blank#}

    Realize that there are countless types of reading materials.

    For example, if you want to read stories, keep in mind that there are many types, like romantic novels, creative nonfiction, etc. Don't decide you don't like reading just because you don't like one particular kind of books. {#blank#}3{#/blank#} But in the end, you'll slowly develop an interest in reading.

    Try listening to music.

    {#blank#}4{#/blank#}Soft music is generally received better, but any type will do. It depends on what you like.

    {#blank#}5{#/blank#}

    Find a place that is quiet, well-lit, and comfortable. You can even make a reading comer in your room.

A. Create a good reading environment.

B. Concentrate on what you're reading.

C. Remember, you will have trial and error.

D. Therefore, watching TV plays an important role.

E. Before anything else, figure out why you want to read.

G. However, reading can greatly increase your life experience.

The Science of Risk-Seeking

    Sometimes we decide that a little unnecessary danger is worth it because when we weigh the risk and the reward, the risk seems worth taking. {#blank#}1{#/blank#} Some of us enjoy activities that would surprise and scare the rest of us. Why? Experts say it may have to do with how our brains work?

    The reason why any of us take any risks al all might have to do with early humans. Risk-takers were better at hunting, fighting, or exploring. {#blank#}2{#/blank#} As the quality of risk-taking was passed from one generation to the next, humans ended up with a sense of adventure and a tolerance for risk.

    So why aren't we all jumping out of airplanes then? Well, even 200,000 years ago, too much risk-taking could get one killed. A few daring survived, though, along with a few stay-in-the-cave types. As a result, humans developed a range of character types that still exists today. So maybe you love car racing, or maybe you hate it. {#blank#}3{#/blank#}

    No matter where you are on the risk-seeking range, scientists say that your willingness to take risks increases during your teenage years. {#blank#}4{#/blank#} To help you do that, your brain increases your hunger for new experiences. New experiences often mean taking some risks, so your brain raises your tolerance for risk as well.

    {#blank#}5{#/blank#} For the risk-seekers a part of the brain related to pleasure becomes active, while for the rest of us, a part of the brain related to fear becomes active.

As experts continue to study the science of risk-seeking, we'll continue to hit the mountains, the waves or the shallow end of the pool.

A. It all depends on your character.

B. Those are the risks you should jump to take.

C. Being better at those things meant a greater chance of survival.

D. Thus, these well-equipped people survived because they were the fittest.

E. This is when you start to move away from your family and into the bigger world.

F. However, we are not all using the same reference standard to weigh risks and rewards.

G. New brain research suggests our brains work differently when we face a nervous situation.

    Find a quiet location. Keep a routine. Focus on one subject at a time. It all seems like sound advice for students who need to hit the books, {#blank#}1{#/blank#} . Here's a list of tips from Carey, a scientist, for getting the most out of your study time.

    {#blank#}2{#/blank#}.

    Doing practice quizzes can help you retrieve(检索)information on test day. “Tests have a very bad reputation as a measurement tool,” Carey says. But psychologists have found self-tests slow down the forgetting of material you've studied. “If you study something once, and then you test yourself on it,” Carey says, “you do better than if you study it twice over.”

    Move around

    {#blank#}3{#/blank#} . “If you move around and study the same material in several places,” he says, “you may be forming multiple associations for the same material. So it's better anchored in your brain, and you can pull it out easier.”

    Mix it up

    Think about a football who does strength training, speed training and drills. Carey says alternating between different facets facts of a subject in a single sitting can “leave a deeper impression on the brain”. For example, when studying French, do some verbs, some speaking and some reading. {#blank#}4{#/blank#} .

    Space it out

    Information learned in a hurry is lost just as fast. So if you really want to learn, space out shorter, hour-long study sessions. “There's no doubt that you can cram for(突击备考)an exam.” Carey says, “{#blank#}5{#/blank#} . And once it's gone, “it's gone. You're not getting it back.”

A. Test yourself

B. Study it and practice more

C. and it turns out that some of them are in great help

D. but recent studies indicate the conventional wisdom is wrong

E. The problem is that it's so easy to forget what you just crammed

F. Changing up where you study can help you keep more information

G. Spending your time in deep concentration on just verbs isn't effective

Time is a valuable resource, especially for those who need to deal with academic demands, personal growth, and social activities at the same time. Effective time management . not only leads to increased productivity, but reduces stress. {#blank#}1{#/blank#} . Here are some strategies to help young adults master the art of time management.

    {#blank#}3{#/blank#} It makes efficient use of their time. Whether using a planner or a calendar app scheduling specific blocks

of time for different activities, including study time, exercise 、socializing, can lead to better time use.

Furthermore, learning to say no is a valuable skill for youth. With numerous opportunities and interests, it's easy to become overwhelmed. By being selective about commitments, young adults can arrange their time and energy

wisely. Saying notonon-essential activities frees up time for important tasks. {#blank#}4{#/blank#}.

In the pursuit of personal success, young adults often find themselves caught up in a series of responsibilities and

commitments. However, it's essential for them to recognize that life shouldn't be like this. Self-care plays a vital role in time management. {#blank#}5{#/blank#} By ensuring they maintain a healthy work-life balance, young adults can recharge their energy levels, improve focus, and increase productivity. That way, they perfect time usage and pave the way for

success.

Spreading kindness not only helps others feel better about themselves but also boosts the giver's health and happiness, according to a study. {#blank#}1{#/blank#}

Giving seems to lower our blood pressure.

{#blank#}2{#/blank#}. One study asked a group of hypertensive (高血压的) people to spend $40 on themselves, while another group of people with high blood pressure were told to spend the money on others. They found that spending money on others had reduced their blood pressure at the end of the six-week study

{#blank#}3{#/blank#}

A recent study found that people who said they would donate money to help orphans were less sensitive to an electric shock than those who declined to give. According to the study, regions of the brain that react to painful stimulation appear to be instantly out of operation by the experience of giving.

Being kind seems to boost happiness.

Another study assigned people to three groups: the first group had to do an act of kindness each day; the second group tried a new activity each day; and the third group did nothing. The first two groups saw a significant boost in happiness. {#blank#}4{#/blank#}, if you're creative with your acts of kindness, than those who performed the same activity over and over again.

"When doing an act of kindness, you're making the world a better place," said the Random Acts of Kindness foundation, which promotes kindness all year. {#blank#}5{#/blank#}.

A. It's a win-win for all

B. Giving seems to lessen our pain

C. You'll experience even greater joy

D. But consider being kind to yourself

E. Being kind seems to contribute to our sense of community

F. Giving donations to others has been shown to have that effect

G. However, any kindness you give to others is also a gift to yourself
