| He met her at a party.She was so outstanding, with many boysaround her, while he was so normal, with nobody paying attention to him.

He replied, "When I was a little boy, I was living near the sea.I liked playing in the sea, and I could feel the taste of the sea, just like the taste of the salty coffee.Now every time I have the salty coffee, I always think of my childhood.I miss my hometown so much.I miss my parents who are still living there." While saying that tears filled his eyes.She was deeply touched.That's his true feeling, from the bottom of his heart.A man who can tell out his homesickness, he must be a man who loves home, caresabout home, and has responsibility of home.

"I tried to tell you the truth many times in my life, but I was too afraid to do that, as I have promised not to lie to you for anything. "Now I'm dying.I'm afraid of nothing so I tell you the truth:I don't like the salty coffee.What a strange bad taste!But I have had the salty coffee for my whole life! "Since I knew you, I never feel sorry for anything I do for you.Having you with me is my biggest happiness for my whole life.If I can live for a second time, I still want to know you and have you for my whole life, even though I have to drink the salty coffee again."

| Compared to people with bad attitudes, people who are cheerful and relaxed are less likely to suffer from colds, according to a new study."It's possible that being upbeat helps the body fight illnesses, " says Sheldon Cohen, the study's lead researcher from Carnegie Mellon University (CMU) in Pittsburgh. In a previous study, Cohen and his colleagues put coldcausing viruses into the noses of 334 healthy adults.People who tended to be cheerful and lively were least likely to develop sniffles, coughs, and other cold symptoms.People who showed positive feelings were also less likely to mention symptoms to their doctors, even when medical tests detected those symptoms. Those findings were interesting, but they didn't prove that a person's attitude affects whether he or she gets sick.Instead, it was still possible that a person's underlying personality is what matters.Evidence suggests, for instance, that certain people are naturally more likely to be outgoing and optimistic, with high selfesteem and a sense of control over life.This would mean that who we are, not how we feel, ultimately decides our chances of catching colds. To figure out which mattered more (personality or emotions), the CMU team interviewed 193 healthy adults.The researchers talked to each person over the phone every evening for 2 weeks.At the end of the interviewing period, people got nose drops that contained either cold or flu viruses.Then, each person stayed in an isolated room for 5 or 6 days.The results showed that everyone in the study was equally likely to get infected.Their symptoms, however, differed depending on the types of emotions that they had reported over the previous 2 weeks.Among those who reported good moods and had been infected with the flu virus, for example,28 percent developed coughs and stuffy noses.On the other hand, those symptoms struck 41 percent of people who had been less upbeat. 1. What would be the best title for the passage? A. Smiles Turn away Colds B. An Interesting Way to Beat Colds C. Be Outgoing and Optimistic to Fight Colds D. What Matters More, Personality or Emotions? 2. In the previous study, people who showed positive feelings______. A. didn't catch colds as often B. developed cold symptoms more slowly C. were less likely to have cold symptoms detected D. were less likely to feel cold symptoms 3. What mainly decides our chances of catching colds according to the new study? A. Personality. B. Selfesteem. C. Emotions. D. Attitudes. 4. The underlined word "symptoms" probably means________. A. something that causes cold B. something that results in cold C. signs that something exists, especially something bad D. changes in your body or mind that show that you are not healthy |
