单选题Faces, like fingerprints, are unique. Did you ever wonder how it is possible for us to recognize people? Even a skilled writer probably could not describe all the features that make one face different from another. Yet a very young child, or even an animal, such as a pigeon, can learn to recognize faces, we all take this ability for granted.
We also tell people apart by how they behave. When we talk about someone"s personality, we mean the ways in which he or she acts, speaks, thinks and feels that make that individual different from others.
Like the human face, human personality is very complex. But describing someone"s personality in words is somewhat easier than describing his face. If you were asked to describe what a "nice face" looked like, you probably would have a difficult time doing so.
But if you were asked to describe a "nice person", you might begin to think about someone who was kind, considerate, friendly, warm, and so forth.
There are many words to describe how a person thinks, feels and acts. Fordin Allport, an American psychologists, found nearly 18,000 English words characterizing differences in people"s behavior. And many of us use this information as a basis for describing, or typing his personality. Bookworms, conservatives, military types people and deserved with such terms.
People have always tried to "type" each other. Actors in early Greek drama wore masks to show the audience whether they played the villains or the hero"s role. In fact, the words "person" and "personality" come from the Latin persona, meaning "mask". Today, most television and movie actors do not wear masks. But we can easily tell the "good guys" from the "bad guys" because the two types differ in appearances as well as in actions.

单选题Dollars and cents are the basic units of American money. The back of all dollar bills are green (hence "greenbacks"). The commonly used coins are: one cent(penny), five cents(nickel), l0 cents ( dime), and 25 cents (quarter). 50 pieces ( half dollar) and silver dollars ( not really silver anymore) are gaining in usage, while there has been talk of phasing out the penny--that's inflation for you. "Always early plenty of quarters when travelling. Very useful for phones, soda machines, laundry machines, etc." There is generally no problem in using U. S. dollars in Canada, but this is never possible in reverse. It's useful always to carry small change for things like exact fare buses, but do not carry large sums of cash. Instead keep the bulk of your money in travellers' cheques which Can be purchased both in the US and abroad and should be in dollar denominations. The best known cheques are those of American Express, so you will have the least difficulty cashing these, even in out of the way places. Thomas Cook travellers' cheques are also acceptable, especially as lost ones can be reclaimed at Some car rental companies. Dollar denomination cheques can be used like regular money. There's no need to cash them at a bank: use them instead to pay for meals, supermarket purchases or whatever. Ten or twenty dollar cheques are accepted like this almost always and you'll be given change just as though you'd presented the cashier with dollar bills. Be prepared to show I. D. when you cash your cheques. Credit cards can be even more valuable than travellers' cheques, as they are often used to guarantee room reservations over the phone and are accepted in lieu of deposit when renting a car--indeed without a credit card you may be considered so untrustworthy that not only a deposit but your passport will be held as security too. The major credit cards are VISA, Master Charge and Access, Diners Club and American Express. If you hold a bank card, it could well be worthwhile to increase your credit limit for travel purposes--you should ask your bank manager.

You must have been troubled by when to
say "I love you" because it is one of the greatest puzzles in our
life. What if you say it first and your partner doesn't love you
back'? Or if they do say it but you don't feel they mean it? Being the first to
declare your love can be nerve-racking(紧张) and risky and can leave you feeling
as vulnerable as a turtle with no shell. But is the person who says it first re-
ally in a position of weakness? Doesn't it pay to hold back, play it cool and
wait until the other half has shown their hand first? "A really
good relationship should be about being fair and being equal," says psychologist
Sidney Crown. "But love is seldom equal." All relationships go through power
struggles but, he says, if a love imbalance continues for years, the rot will
set in. "That feeling of 'I've always loved you more' may be subverted(颠覆,破坏)
for a time, but it never goes away completely and it often emerges in
squabbling(大声争吵)." In love, at least, the silent, withholding type is not always
the most powerful. "The strongest one in a relationship is often the person who
feels confident enough to talk about their feelings," says educational
psychologist Ingrid Collins. Psychosexual therapist Paula Hall agrees. "The one
with the upper hand is often the person who takes the initiative. In fact, the
person who says 'I love you' first may also be the one who says 'I'm bored with
you' first." Hall believes that much depends on how "I love you" is said and the
motivation of the person saying it. "Is it said when they're drunk? Is it said
before their partner files off on holiday, and what it really means is 'Please
don't be unfaithful to me'? By saying 'I love you', they really saying Do you
love me?' If so, wouldn't it just be more honest to say that?" Collins agrees
that intention is everything. "It's not what is said, but how it's said. What it
comas down to is the sincerity of the speaker."
