单选题On August 10, 1999, Donna Dees-Thomases watched as every parent's nightmare unfolded on TV: A gunman had shot and injured two young children at a California day camp. "My heart was in my throat," she says. "Those children could have been mine." Anger and fear led Dees-Thomases, 46, a mother of three from Short Hills, NJ, to organize the Million Mom March on Mother's Day in 2000. A stand against the 30 000 deaths and 75 000 gun-related injuries a year in the United States, it drew an estimated 750 000 to Washington, DC. Now the second Million Mom March, set for May 9 in DC, will urge the federal government to renew and strengthen the assault weapons ban (set to expire in September). And Dees-Thomases' new book, Looking for a Few Good Moms: How One Mother Rallied a Million Others against the Gun Lobby, will be published this month by Rodale, Prevention's parent company.

单选题Some people make you feel comfortable when they are around. These people have something in common. And once we know what it is we can try to do it ourselves. How is it done? Here are several skills that good talkers have. If you follow the skills, they'll help you put people at their ease, and make friends with them quickly. First of all, good talkers ask questions. Almost anyone, no matter how shy he is, will answer a question. And how he answers will let you know how far you can go. Second, once good talkers have asked questions, they listen to the answers. And to find out what sort of person you are talking to, you really have to listen carefully and attentively. Real listening at least means some things. First it means not to change the subject of the conversation. Real listening also means not just listening to words but to tones of voice. If the voice sounds dull, then, it's time for you to change the subject. Finally, good talkers know well now to deal with the occasion of parting. If you want to see that person again, don't keep it a secret. Let people know what you feel, and they may walk away feeling as if they've known you half their life.
