Everyone has two personalities（性格）﹣the one that is shown to the world and the other that is secret and real．You don't show your secret personality when you are awake because you can control yourself，but when you are asleep，your sleeping position shows the real you．In a normal night，of course，you often change your sleeping positions．The important position that best shows your secret personality is the one that you go to sleep．
If you go to sleep on your back，you are a very open person．You normally trust people and you are easily influenced by new ideas．You don't like to make people unhappy，so you never express your real feelings．You are quite shy and you aren't very confident．
If you sleep on your stomach，you are a person who likes to keep secrets．You worry a lot and you are always easily becoming sad．You never want to change your ideas，but you are satisfied with your life the way it is．You usually live for today not for tomorrow．
If you sleep on curled up，you are probably a very nervous person．You have a low opinion of yourself and often protect yourself from being hurt，so you are very defensive（防御性的）．You are shy and you don't usually like meeting people．You like to be on your own．
If you sleep on your side，you have usually got a well﹣balanced personality．You know your strengths and weaknesses．You're usually careful．You have a confident personality．You sometimes feel worried，but you don't often get unhappy．You always say what you think，even if it makes people angry．

I have a friend called Mark. Last Sunday it was a beautiful day. When it got too hot, Mark rolled up his sleeves. I was very surprised to see that he had a tattoo! Then he told me he has lots of tattoos. He has tattoos on his arms, legs, chest and back. So of course I asked him lots of questions about the tattoos!
“It was ten years ago,” he said, “I remember I was on an island in the middle of the sea. I chose a dolphin tattoo because I wanted to have something about the sea.”
“I liked the idea of doing more designs about the sea. So after the dolphin I had an octopus, and then a starfish. These are on my left leg. Then, over my left arm I had lots of fish swimming together. They took a long time to do. I also have a crab and a lobster too!”
“Most recently I got a mermaid. It was finished two weeks ago. I saw a painting of a beautiful mermaid in a museum. I took a photograph and then decided to get a tattoo. I made the design a little simpler.”
“People ask me if getting a tattoo hurts. It depends. If you feel relaxed then it’s OK. But if you’re tired or nervous then you feel it more. It also depends where on the body the tattoo is done.”Where did the writer find the tattoo?
A. On Mike’s sleeves. B. On Mike’s arms. C. On Mike’s body. When was the mermaid done?
A. Ten years ago. B. Last Sunday. C. Two weeks ago. Where did he get the idea for the beautiful mermaid?
A. From the sea. B. From a painting. C. From the cinema. We can learn from the last paragraph that _______.
A. it’s not good to feel nervous when getting a tattoo
B. people can do anything they like with their tattoos
C. people have different feelings about their tattoos What does “tattoo” mean?
A. 烟草 B. 图片 C. 文身
A friend of mine named Paul received an expensive car from his brother as a Christmas present. On Christmas Eve when Paul came out of his office, a street urchin was walking around the shining car. “Is this your car, Paul?” he asked.
Paul answered, “Yes, my brother gave it to me for Christmas.” The boy was surprised. “You mean your brother gave it to you and it didn’t cost you nothing? Boy, I wish…”He hesitated.
Of course Paul knew what he was going to wish for. He was going to wish he had a brother like that. But what the boy said surprised Paul greatly.
“I wish,” the boy went on, “that I could be a brother like that.” Paul looked at the boy in surprise, then he said again, “Would you like to take a ride in my car?”
“Oh yes, I’d love that.”
After a short ride, the boy turned and with his eyes shining, said, “Paul, would you mind driving in front of my house?”
Paul smiled a little. He thought he knew what the boy wanted. He wanted to show his neighbors that he could ride home in a big car. But Paul was wrong again. “Will you stop where those two steps are?” the boy asked.
He ran up to the steps. Then in a short while Paul heard him coming back, but he was not coming fast. He was carrying his little crippled brother. He sat him down on the step and pointed to the car.
“There she is, Buddy, just like I told you upstairs. His brother gave it to him for Christmas and it didn’t cost him a cent. And some day I’m going to give you one just like it …then you can see for yourself all the nice things in the Christmas window that I’ve been trying to tell you about.”
Paul got out and lifted the boy to the front seat of his car. The shining-eyed older brother climbed in beside him and the three of them began an unforgettable holiday ride.
