I'm in trouble. Last week,we had a football match,and we lost.We played well,but one teammate didn't do his best,I think.It was like he wasn't even on the court!Disappointed by his behaviour,I said all this to my best friend.But he told everyone else what I'd said.I'm really angry with my friend- what should I say to him?And should I say anything at all to my teammate? |

Reply There is an old American saying, "Loose lips sink ships. "This means that if you speak too much about something,especially to people who you don't know so well,it'll cause all kinds of trouble.Maybe now you're in this situation.Forget all these unhappy things. Like 13 |

Reply Perhaps most importantly,think about your own behaviour.When filled with anger,you would say whatever comes to your mind.You might hurt others.Take a deep breath,calm down,and always remember:think first,speak later. Like 11 |

Reply In my view(观点),you should do what your parents ask.They're much older than you and you should respect them.It's their house you live in and their money you spend! Like 10 |

Reply Here's what you need to do.First,apologise to your teammate.Have a chat with him,and tell him directly and honestly that you were talking without thinking.Then tell your friend you're angry with him for repeating what you said and making the situation worse,but you hope your friendship will move on.

Many Chinese people like American country music(乡村音乐 ),such as(例如) the songs of John Denver. But still some people don’t know when country music began.

One of the most popular country music singers is John Denver, who is also quite famous to the Chinese. For Denver, music was a language that could bring the world together. He says music can bring people together. We will understand(理解) each other better through(通过) music. People are different in colour and they may speak different languages, but people are the same in mind and body(在心灵和精神方面). All of them love music and can understand music.

Will it matter if you don’t take your breakfast? A short time ago, a test was given in the US. People of different ages, from 12 to 83, were asked to have a test. During the test, these people were given all kinds of breakfast, and sometimes they got no breakfast at all. Scientists wanted to see how well their bodies worked when they had eaten different kinds of breakfasts.
The results show that if a person eats a right breakfast, he or she will work better than if he or she has no breakfast. If a student has fruit, egg, bread and milk before going to school, he will learn more quickly and listen more carefully in class.
The result is opposite to what some people think. Having no breakfast will not help you lose weight(减轻体重).This is because people become so hungry at noon that they eat too much for lunch. They will gain weight (增加体重 )instead of losing it. You will lose more weight if you reduce your other meals.During the test, the people were given __________.
A.no breakfast at all | B.different foods or sometimes none |
C.very rich breakfast | D.little food for breakfast |

A.breakfast has great effect (影响) on work and studies. |
B.breakfast has little to do with a person’s work |
C.a person will work better if he only has fruit and milk. |
