How can you possibly always remain energetic?Jenny: Actually, sometimes I find it difficult to progress in work, too. But recently I found doing Yoga can really help you both keep fit and let go of your frustrations.Victor: That sounds amazing.Jenny: It really is. Yoga is a five-thousand-year old form of practice which comes from India. It teaches people how to unite mind, body and spirit.Victor: People practicing yoga do a lot of difficult postures, don't they? Like holding a foot in the air with only one foot standing. I'm worried I'm not that flexible.Jenny: People practice yoga by doing different postures as well as breathing and meditation. The emphasis is not on how difficult the posture is, but on increasing awareness of your body and rejuvenating it. Also, your flexibility and strength will both improve as you progress.Victor: Oh, sounds good. I just hope it can help me manage my stress.Jenny: It will definitely do that.

Evaluating Sources of Health Information Making good choices about your own health requires reasonable evaluation. A key first step in bettering your evaluation ability is to look carefully at your sources of health information. Reasonable evaluation includes knowing where and how to find relevant information, how to separate fact from opinion, how to recognize poor reasoning, and how to analyze information and the reliability of sources.【B1】______ Go to the original source. Media reports often simplify the results of medical research. Find out for yourself what a study really reported, and determine whether it was based on good science. Think about the type of study.【B2】______ Watch for misleading language. Some studies will find that a behavior "contributes to" or is "associated with" an outcome; this does not mean that a certain course must lead to a certain result.【B3】______ Carefully read or listen to information in order to fully understand it. Use your common sense. If a report seems too good to be true, probably it is. Be especially careful of information contained in advertisements.【B4】______ Evaluate "scientific" statements carefully, and be aware of quackery (江湖骗术) . 【B5】______ Friends and family members can be a great source of ideas and inspiration, but each of us needs to find a healthy lifestyle that works for us. Developing the ability to evaluate reasonably and independently about health problems will serve you well throughout your life.[A] Make choices that are right for you.[B] The goal of an ad is to sell you something.[C] Be sure to work through the critical questions.[D] And examine the findings of the original research.[E] Distinguish between research reports and public health advice.[F] Be aware that information may also be incorrectly explained by an author's point of view. [G] The following suggestions can help you sort through the health information you receive from common sources.

What are the speakers talking about?
"New York City is not America." That's what American friends are sure to you when you arrive. "You must see Boston, visit Niagara Falls, go to Virginia, fly down to Florida, and so on; but first, of course, you will want to see New York. It is not the capital city of the United States (that is Washington, D. C. , where the President lives) or even the capital city of New York State (that is Albany) , but many people call it ' the greatest city on earth'. " The five parts, or boroughs, of New York City are Manhattan, Queen, Bronz, Richmond and Brooklyn. Although Manhattan is not all of New York, it is the heart of the city. It is an island, which is only about 13 miles long and 2 miles wide. From the air its shape looks like a long finger, and from the sea it's just like the picture we all know. Those tall, straight buildings—the skyscrapers—packed so close together on that island of rocks are sometimes seen in the distance through a veil of early morning mist. You have imagined it so often that now it's difficult to believe this beautiful sight is real, and unless your heart is as hard as a stone, excitement will make it beat a little faster. Perhaps "greatest" , "tallest" , "longest" , "biggest" , "brightest" , are words you will find most often in the city guide books.

We walked so quietly that the nurse at the desk didn't even lift her eyes from the book. Mum pointed to a big chair by the door and I knew she wanted me to have a seat. While I watched, mouth open in surprise, mum took off her hat and coat and gave them to me to hold. She walked quietly to the small room by the lift and took out a wet mop(拖把). She pushed the mop past the desk and as the nurse looked up, mum nodded and said, "Very dirty floors. " "Yes. I'm glad they've finally decided to clean them," the nurse said. She looked at mum strangely and said, "But aren't you working late?" Mum just pushed harder, each swipe (拖) of the mop taking her farther and farther down the hall. I watched until I couldn't see her and the nurse had turned back to write in the big book. After a long time mum came back. Her eyes were shining. She rapidly put the mop back and took my hand. As we turned to go out of the door, mum nodded politely to the nurse and said, "Thank you." Outside, mum told me, "Dagmar is fine. No fever. " "You saw her, mum?" "Of course. I told her about the hospital rules, and she will not expect us until tomorrow. Dad will stop worrying as well. It's a fine hospital. But such floors! A mop is no good. You need a brush."

"The more that you read, the more things you will know. The more that you learn, the more places you 'll go. " These simple-but-true words were written by Dr. Seuss in one of his 44 books.【B1】______ Theodor Seuss Geisel was born in 1904.【B2】______ He grew up in the town of Springfield, Massachusetts. When he was a small child, his mother would help him go to sleep with children' s songs. Years later, Ted would go on to write some very famous songs of his own. When he was at college, Ted began to write for a magazine. This was the first time he wrote under the name Seuss. Though not a real doctor, he would soon write only as Dr. Seuss.【B3】______ His drawings were published in many kinds of magazines. In time, Ted wanted to both write and draw pictures for his own children' s books. His first book had many drawings of some of the cars and people he knew from the streets of Springfield. It was difficult to get the book printed.【B4】______ It was turned down 27 times before it was finally published. Not long after, his book The Cat in the Hat became a huge success. It helped to make Dr. Seuss a well-known name in children' s books. Over the years, Ted wrote some of the best-loved children' s books in the world. He won a Pulitzer Prize and many other prizes for his work.【B5】______ But his books and his songs are still well-known today. More than 200 million of his books are now in print in 15 languages.[A] In 1991, he passed away.[B] He soon became a famous writer.[C] At college, he started writing books for children.[D] Ted had to be patient and keep trying.[E] It is likely that you have read one or more of them.[F] When he left college, Ted began drawing.[G] To his family and friends, though, he was known as Ted.
Looking to improve your language skills, but you don't have the time to go abroad to attend school? More and more universities around the world are offering opportunities for students to get degrees online (distance education) from the comfort of their own homes, and many of these colleges and universities are accredited (官方认可的), meaning that they have met certain standards of excellence. If you decide to take language courses online (or any subject for that matter), be sure there are advantages in studying online. Its costs are usually lower, and you can study at your own pace (节奏), and you can easily get the materials 24 hours a day from almost any computer in the world. However, you won't get the human interaction (互动) of meeting people face to face, as you would if you were attending a school abroad in person. On the other hand, the advantages of going abroad may include day-to-day chances to learn a new culture, to meet new friends with whom you can use and practice the language, and to see different parts of the world. However, there may be a number of disadvantages for some students, including high costs, time away from one's school, family, or work life, and difficulty in getting used to a new culture and way of life. Whatever you do, consider a distance education program that meets your educational needs, is what you can afford, and equally important, provides you with chances to grow beyond the classroom through cultural and educational activities.
