| Positive thinkers admit when they feel frustrated (受挫折的) or depressed, they don't ignore it. But they don't blame themselves either. Instead, they try to understand the negative thoughts and feelings and counter (反击) them with more positive ones. So how do you stay positive, maintain motivated and sustain (保持) healthy behaviors? Here are some tips: Look for a good role model. There is always someone who seems to be doing just what you want to be doing. Maybe they've scheduled exercise into their workday and switched from coffee to green tea. Learn from a successful friend, family member or colleague. Ask them how they keep healthy and follow in their footsteps. Try some positive self-talk and avoid negative-talk. Take a minute to give yourself an ego boost. Repeat some motivational words out loud to yourself. Negative talk such as"I can't do it," "I'm fat," is dangerous for your well-being and healthy goals. Try to avoid the negative self-talk before it harms you. Remind yourself that you deserve happiness and can make positive changes. Get support. Tell your friends and family about your healthy habits. It helps to have an encouraging network. Reward yourself. Treat yourself to something for your healthy efforts. Take a nice bath, get a massage, and enjoy a new DVD or CD. Have a plan. Making a plan to exercise or eat healthy lunches with a friend can mean the difference of sticking with your goals or falling off track. If you've planned for an activity, you'll likely stick with it. You may even find that writing down your goals and steps to achieve them can help you stay on track. Take it day by day or week by week. The process of writing down your personal action plan is a good way to keep you honest and watch your progress or failures. |

| A. to get lost in deep thought. B. to think about the hardships. C. to check what mistake you made. D. to make you feel better about yourself. |
| 3.Which of the following would the author Not agree to? |
| A. Saying some positive words to yourself helps you to feel good. B. By staying with your companion you can avoid the negative-talk. C. A successful friend, relative or colleague can be your role model. D. Creating a helpful network is a good way to keep you motivated. |

| British potato farmers were taking to the streets to call for the expression "couch potato" to be taken away from the dictionary on the grounds that it harms the vegetable's image. The British Potato Council wants the Oxford English Dictionary (OED) to replace the expression with the term "couch slouch", with protests planned outside parliament in London and the offices of Oxford University Press. Kathryn Race, head of marketing at the Council, which represents some 4,000 growers and processors, said the group had complained in writing to the OED but had yet to receive a response. "We are trying to get rid of the image that potatoes are bad to you," she said Monday. "The potato has had its knocks in the past. Of course it is not the Oxford English Dictionary's fault but we want to use another term than couch potato because potatoes are naturally healthy." The OED says "couch potato" originated as American slang, meaning"a person who spends leisure time passively or idly sitting around, especially watching television or video tapes." John Simpson, chief editor of the Oxford English Dictionary, said the dictionary first included the term "couch potato" in 1993 and said"dictionaries just reflect the words that society uses." Simpson said words were never taken out of the full-length dictionary, which includes some 650,000 words contained in 20 volumes. But little-used words can be removed from the smaller dictionaries to make way for newer ones. "If society stops using words, then they are taken out of the smaller dictionaries", he added. "The first known recorded use of the expression 'couch potato' was in a 1979 Log Angeles Times article," Simpson said. Nigel Evans, a member of parliament for the Ribble Valley in Lancashire, has made a motion in support of the campaign, highlighting the nutritional value of the British potato. |

| A. to advertise their production B. to call for a higher price for t heir potatoes C. to remove the expression "couch potato" from the dictionary D. to let people know how important the potato is in people's lives |
| 2.The farmers think that ____. |
| A. potatoes have had a bad imagine B. potatoes are good for people by nature C. potatoes sometimes do harm to people D. it's the dictionary's fault to use the expression "couch potato" |
| 3. John Simpson thinks that ____. |
| A. he expression can be taken out of every kind of dictionary B. dictionaries do not necessarily reflect the words the society uses C. little used words can remain in the smaller dictionaries D. it is impossible to take the word out of the dictionary |
| 4. What is wrong with the expression "couch potato"? |
| A. It is connected with unfavorable meaning. B. Potato should be used in the expression. C. It is borrowed from American English. D. It refers to a kind of person. |

| TOKYO-Imagine a bicycle seat connected by mechanical frames (机械支架) to a pair of shoes for an idea of how the new wearable assisted-walking machine from Honda works. The experimental machine, showed on Friday, is designed to support bodyweight, reduce stress on the knees and help people organize steps and stay in crouching (蹲坐) positions.Honda showed a video of its employees wearing the machine. Engineer Jun Ashihara also said the machine is useful for people standing in long lines and to people who run around to make deliveries. "This should be as easy to use as a bicycle," Ashihara said. "It reduces stress, and you should feel less tired." To wear it, you put the seat between your legs, put on the shoes and push the "on" button.Then just start walking around. In a test run for media, this reporter found it does take some time to get used to the machine. "I could sense how it supported my moves, pushing up on my bottom when I crouched and pushing at my soles (脚底) to help lift my legs when I walked," he said. The system has a computer, a motor, gears (齿轮), batteries and sensors in it, so it responds to a person's movements, according to Honda Motor Co. Pricing and commercial product plans are still undecided. Japan's No.2 automaker will begin testing a prototype (模型) later this month. The need for such mechanical help is expected to grow in Japan, which has one of the most rapidly aging societies in the world. Other companies are also eyeing the potentially attractive market of helping the weak and the old get around. Japan is among the world's leading nations in robotics technology, not only for industrial use but also for entertainment and companionship. |

| To get an extra 14 years of life, don't smoke, eat lots of fruits and vegetables, exercise regularly and drink alcohol in a proper amount. That is according to a study published this Monday in the Public Library of Science Medicine Journal. After tracking more than 20,000 people aged 45-79 years in the United Kingdom from about 1993-2007, Kay-Tee, Khaw of the University of Cambridge and his colleagues found that people who adopted these four healthy habits lived an average of 14 years longer than those who didn't. "We've known for a long time that these behaviors are good things to do, but we've not seen this benefit before," said Susan Jebb, head of Nutrition and Health at Britain's Medical Research Council."The benefit was also seen regardless of whether or not people were fat and what social class they came from." Study participants (参与者) scored a point each for not smoking, regular physical activity, eating five servings of fruits and vegetables a day and moderate alcohol intake. Public health experts said they hoped the study would inspire governments to introduce policies helping people to adopt these changes. But because the study only observed people rather than testing specific changes, it would be impossible to conclude that people who suddenly adopted these healthy behaviours would surely gain 14 years. "We can't say that any person could gain 14 years by doing these things," said Doctor Tim Armstrong, a physical activity expert at the World Health Organization." The 14 years is an average across the population of what's theoretically (理论上) possible." "Most people know that things like a good diet matter and that smoking is not good for them", Susan Jebb said,"We need to work on providing people with much more practical support to help them change." |
| 1. Which of the following doesn't belong to the four healthy habits? |
| A. Eating five servings of fruits and vegetables a day. B. Doing proper exercise in the morning every day. C. Having a cigarette before going to bed every day. D. Drinking alcohol in the proper amount every day. |
| 2. We can learn from the passage that _____. |
| A. the study observed people as well as tested specific changes B. Susan Jebb did not take part in the study C. there is no need for people under 45 adopt these good habits D. only those from first class can benefit from these healthy behaviours |
| 3. What can be inferred from the passage? |
| A. Governments should take measures to help people change their bad habits. B. People aged 45-79 have bad habits in the United Kingdom. C. All the people are well aware of the harm of their bad habits. D. People have adopted the four healthy habits after knowing they're good. |
| 4. What would be the best title for this passage? |
| A. Smoking and Drinking Cuts You 14 Years B. Healthy Habits Could Gain You Extra 14 years C. A New Way of Keeping Healthy D. Smoking and Drinking Harms Your Health |
