         Sometimes you'll hear people say that you can't love others until you love yourself. Sometimes you'll
    hear people say that you can't expect someone else to love you until you love yourself. Either way, you've got to love yourself first and this can be tricky. Sure we all know that we're the apple of our parents' eyes, and that our Grandmas think we're great talents and our Uncle Roberts think that we will go to the
    Olympics. But sometimes it's a lot harder to think such nice thoughts about ourselves. If you find that
    believing in yourself is a challenge. It is time you build a positive self-image and learn to love yourself.
         Self-image is your own mind's picture of yourself. This image includes the way you look, the way you
    act, the way you talk and the way you think. Interestingly, our self-images are often quite different from
    the images others hold about us. Unfortunately, most of these images are more negative than they should
    be. Thus changing the way you think about yourself is the key to changing your self-image and your whole world.
         The best way to defeat a passive self-image is to step back and decide to stress your successes. That
    is, make a list if you need to, but write down all of the great things you do every day. Don't allow doubts
    to occur in it.
         It very well might be that you are experiencing a negative self-image because you can't move past one
    flaw or weakness that you see about yourself. Well, roll up your sleeves and make a change of it as your
    primary task. If you think you're silly because you aren't good at math, find a tutor. If you think you're
    weak because you can't run a mile, get to the track and practice. If you think you're dull because you
    don't wear the latest trends, buy a few new clothes. But remember, just because you think it doesn't mean
    it's true.
         The best way to get rid of a negative self-image is to realize that your image is far from objective, and
    to actively convince yourself of your positive qualities. Changing the way you think and working on those
    you need to improve will go a long way towards promoting a positive self-image. When you can pat(拍)
    yourself on the back, you'll know you're well on your way. Good luck!

    1. You need to build a positive self-image when you _________.
    A. dare to challenge yourself
    B. feel it hard to change yourself
    C. are unconfident about yourself
    D. have a high opinion of yourself

    2. How should you change your self-image according to the passage?
    A. To keep a different image of others.
    B. To make your life successful.
    C. To understand your own world.
    D. To change the way you think.

    3. What is the passage mainly about?
    A. How to prepare for your success.
    B. How to face challenges in your life.
    C. How to build a positive self-image.
    D. How to develop your good qualities.

    4. Who are the intended readers of the passage?
    A. Parents.
    B. Adolescents.
    C. Educators.  
    D. People in general.

         Labor force is defined as being the total number of people who are available to work and earn
    income. This definition includes everyone who is employed or seeking paid employment, so it includes
    employers and the self-employed. Labor is one of the country's resources which can be combined with
    other resources to produce the goods and services wanted by the community.
         Although the size of the workforce depends a great deal on the size of the total population, there are
    several other influences which also affect it. The age distribution (分布) of the total population has a very
    marked effect on the available workforce. If the population has a high proportion of very young people
    or of those too old to work, then the available workforce would be lower than if there were a balanced
    spread age distribution. If the population naturally grows rapidly, the number of births greatly exceeds
    (超出) the number of deaths then as a total population increases proportion of the workforce declines.
         Sometimes a population is described as aging which means that the birth rate is either falling or
    growing very slowly, and as people retire from the workforce there are insufficient numbers of young
    people entering it to replace those who are leaving it. In that situation the population is top-heavy with
    older people. So the percentage of the population in the workforce declines when there is either a rapid
    increase in births or a falling birth rate.
         The age distribution of the population has several important effects on the economy. If the population
    is aging and there is an increase in the number of people retiring without a corresponding increase in the
    number entering the workforce, this raises the problem of the ability of the economy to provide a
    reasonable level of social services to the retired group. If the aged are to be cared for in special homes,
    finance must be available for that purpose. If the size of the workforce is small relative to the total
    population, then the government tax revenue (税收) is relatively low and either the government has less
    money available to it or the workforce members have to be taxed more heavily.

    1. In the passage "labor force" is defined as ___________.
    A. people who are available to work and earn income
    B. self-employed people only
    C. people who are looking for an employment
    D. employers who create job opportunities

    2. The conclusion which can be drawn from the second paragraph is that___________.
    A. a natural growth of population leads to a balanced workforce
    B. a large population does not necessarily mean a higher proportion of workforce
    C. the larger the population, the higher the proportion of the workforce
    D. the workforce will be lower, if the population has a balanced age distribution,

    3. When a population is said to be aging,___________.
    A. there are more people retiring than those entering the workforce
    B. the birth rate must be growing
    C. there should be an oversupply of workforce
    D. There are more people entering the workforce than those retiring

    4. The population which is top-heavy with older people ___________ of a country.
    A. leads to the high rate of unemployment  
    B. results in low tax on the workforce members  
    C. affects employees' incomes
    D. places pressure on the economy

    Last Sunday I saw a worst storm in years. It came sudden and went on for over three
    hours. After lunch, I went into my room to have a rest. The air was hot, but all was quiet.
    Then a strong wind started to blow into my room. Pieces of paper on my desk flew high into
    the air and some flew out the open window. As I ran out to catch it, big drop of rain began
    to fall. When I come back into my house, it was raining more harder and harder. Then I heard
    a loud crashing sound from the back of the house. When I ran out of my room to find out that
    had happened, a big tree had fallen down and broke the top of the backroom.
