Bollywood is the Indian film industry, based in Mumbai, formerly known as Bombay.   1   Yet Bollywood is the largest producer of films in the world. This year the Indian Filmgare Awards, Bollywood's Oscars, turn 50 years old.‎ ‎   The typical Bollywood movie usually has the following ingredients: a cup of romance, a tea-spoon of comedy, a dash of international sight-seeing, served with a huge slice of singing and dancing.

If we don’t feel well, we use a thermometer to see if we have a fever. We keep our rooms a certain warmth in the winter and a certain coolness in the summer.‎ Not all the thermometers use the same system to measure temperature. We use a system called the Fahrenheit scale. But most other countries use the Centigrade scale.‎ Both systems use the freezing and boiling points of water as their guide._____2_____ .‎ The most common kind of thermometer is made with mercury(水银)inside a clear glass tube. As mercury (or any other liquid ) becomes hot, it expands. As it gets colder, it contracts(收缩). That is why on hot days the mercury line is high in the glass tube._____3______.‎ First. Take a clear glass juice bottle that has a cap ; fill the bottle with coloured water. Tap a hole in the center of the cap using a hammer and thick nail. Put the cap on the jar. Then stick a plastic straw(吸管) through the nail hole.‎ ‎______4______.‎ Finally. Place a white card on the outside of the bottle and behind the straw.

On the Fahrenheit scale water freezes at 32 degrees and boils at 212 degrees. On the Celsius scale water freezes at 0 degrees and boils at 100degrees.‎ ‎       F．Take wax (you may use an old candle if you have one) and melt some of it right where the straw is struck into the cap to seal把..粘住) them together.‎ ‎       G．People use thermometers which are made by themselves when travelling around the world.‎ ‎ 第七篇：‎ ‎_  1  _ One of the best things you can possibly do is to start you own club． It’s great fun especially if you are the sort of person who feels there’s never anything to do during the school holidays．‎ The first thing you need to come up with is an idea for your club．  _2  _ Pets, clothes, pop music or dancing groups, sports, making things?

It will keep kids home from school. 1 Employees will suddenly lose their ability to concentrate.‎ The disease, known as “March Madness”, refers to the yearly 65-team US men’s college basketball tournament. 2 Teams compete against each other in a single-elimination (单局淘汰) tournament that eventually crowns a national champion.‎ Nearly 20 million Americans will find themselves prisoners of basketball festival madness. The fun comes partly from guessing the winners for every game. Friends compete against friends. 3 Colleagues against bosses.‎ Big-name schools are usually favored to advance into the tournament. But each year there are dark horses from little-known universities.‎ This adds to the madness. Watching a team from a school with 3,000 students beat a team from a school with 30,000, for many Americans, is an exciting experience. Two years ago, the little-known George‎ Mason ‎University was one of the final four teams. 4 ‎ College basketball players are not paid, so the game is more about making a name for their university and themselves. 5 About $ 4 billion will be spent gambling (赌) on the event. According to Media Life magazine, the event will bring in $ 500 million in advertising income this year, topping the post – season income of every US professional league, including that of the NBA.‎ ‎ A. Husbands against wives.‎ ‎ B. The players will go all out for the games.‎ ‎ C. But that doesn’t mean money isn’t involved.‎ ‎ D. College students will ignore piles of homework.‎ ‎ E. People are willing to spend more money on watching it.‎ ‎ F. It begins on March 15 and lasts through the beginning of April.‎ ‎ G. Many people had never even heard of the university before the tournament. ‎ ‎4‎ Everyone knows that the Frenchmen are romantic, the Italians are fashionable and the Germans are serious. Are these just stereotypes or is there really such a thing as national character? And if there is, can it affect how a nation succeed or fail?‎ At least one group of people is certain that it can. A recent survey of the top 500 entrepreneurs (企业家) in the UK ‎ found that 70% felt that their efforts were not appreciated by the British public. Britain is hostile (敌意的) to success, they said. It has a culture of jealousy(嫉妒). 1 Jealousy is sometimes known as the “green-eyed monster” and the UK is its home.‎ Scientists at Warwich University in the UK recently tested this idea. They gathered a group of people together and gave each an imaginary amount of money. 2 Those given a little were given the chance to destroy the large amount of money given to others – but at the cost of losing their own. Two thirds of the people tested agreed to do this.‎ ‎3 . But there is also opposite evidence. The Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development recently reported that the UK is now the world’s fourth largest economy. That is not bad for people who are supposed to hate success. People in the UK also work longer hours than anyone else in Europe. So the British people are not lazy, either.‎ ‎“It is not really success that the British dislike,” says Carey Cooper, a professor of management at the University of Manchester Institute of Science and Technology. “It’s people using their success in a way that seems proud or unfair or which separates them from their roots.”‎ ‎ 4 They set out to do things in their way. They work long hours. By their own efforts they become millionaires. 5 .It hardly seems worth following their example. If they were more friendly, people would like them more. And more people want to be like them.‎ A. This seems to prove that the entrepreneurs were right to complain.‎ B. The one who owns most money in the end is the winner.‎ C. As a result, the survey said, entrepreneurs were “unloved, unwanted and misunderstood.”‎ D. It is not true that British people are born jealous of others’ success.‎ E. Some were given a little, others a great deal.‎ F. But instead of being happy they complain that nobody loves them.‎ G. Perhaps it is the entrepreneurs who are the problem.‎ ‎  5‎ ‎1 When a starving man gets a meal, he begins to think about an overcoat; when an executive gets a new sports car, visions of country clubs and pleasure beats dance into view.‎ The many wants of mankind might be regarded as making up several levels. 2 .‎ The first and most basic level of wants involves food. Once this want is satisfied, a second level of wants appears: clothing and some sort of shelter. By the end of World War II these wants were satisfied for a great majority of Americans. 3 It included such items as automobiles and new houses. ‎ By 1957 or 1958 this third level of wants was fairly well satisfied. Then, in the late 1950s a fourth level of wants appeared: the “life-enriching”level. While the other levels involve physical satisfaction－the feeding, comfort, safety, and transportation of the human body－this level stresses mental needs for recognition, achievement and happiness. It includes a variety of goods and services, many of which could be called “luxury” items. Among them are vacation trips, the best medical care, and entertainment. 4 ‎ On this level, a greater percentage of consumer spending goes to services, while on the first three levels more is spent on goods. Will consumers raise their sights to a fifth level of wants as their income increases, or will they continue to demand luxuries and personal services on the fourth level? ‎ ‎ A fifth level probably would involve wants that can be achieved best by community action. Consumers may be spending more on taxes to pay for government action against disease, ignorance, crime and prejudice. 5 In this way, we can enjoy more fully the good things on the first four levels.‎ ‎ A．Then a third level appeared.‎ ‎ B．Human wants seem endless.‎ ‎ C．When there is money enough to satisfy one level of wants, another level appears.‎ ‎ D．There are several levels of wants in one’s life.‎ ‎ E．At this stage, we now may seek to ensure the health, safety, and leisure.‎ ‎ F．Also included here are fancy foods and the latest styles in clothing.‎ ‎ G．Different people have different wants on each level.‎ ‎6‎ We are all called upon to make a speech at some point in life, but most of us don’t do a very good job. 1 .‎ So, you have to give a speech—and you are terrified. You get nervous, you forget what you want to say, you stumble（结结巴巴） over words, you talk too long, and you bore your audience. Later you think, “Thank Goodness, it’s over. I’m just not good at public speaking. I hope I never have to do that again.”‎ Cheep up! 2 . Here are some simple steps to take the pain out of speech making. Ask yourself the purpose of your speech. What is the occasion? Why are you speaking? Then, gather as many facts as you can on your subject. Spend plenty of your time doing your research. Then spend plenty of your time organizing your material so that your speech is clear and easy to follow. Use as many examples as possible, and use pictures, charts, and graphs if they help you make your points more clearly. 3 . Don’t talk down to them. Treat your audience with respect. They will appreciate your thoughtfulness.‎ Just remember: Be prepared. Know your subject, your audience, and the occasion. Be brief. 4 . And be yourself. Let your personality come through so that you make person-to-person contact with your audience.‎ If you follow these simple steps, you will see that you don’t have to be afraid of public speaking. In fact, you may find the experience so enjoyable that you volunteer to make more speeches! You’re not convinced yet? 5 .‎ A. It doesn’t have to be that bad.‎ B. Take several deep breaths before your speech.‎ C. This article gives some advice on how to give a good speech.‎ D. Say what you have to say and then stop.‎ E. Don’t give a try to say what you aren’t familiar with.‎ F. Never forget your audience.‎ G. Give it a try and see what happens.‎ ‎7‎ There is an English saying:“1._________.” Until recently, few people took the saying seriously. Now, however, doctors have begun to look into laughter and the effects it has on the human body. 2. _________.‎ Tests were carried out to study the effects of laughter on the body. People watched funny films while doctors checked their hearts, blood pressure, breathing and muscles. It was found that laughter has similar effects to physical exercise. 3.__________. If laughter exercises the body, it must be beneficial.‎ Other tests have shown that laughter appears to be able to reduce the effect of pain on the body. In one experiment doctors produced pain in groups of students who listened to different radio programs. The group that tolerated(忍耐) the pain for the longest time was the group which listened to a funny program. 4._________.‎ ‎5.__________. They have found that even if their patients do not really feel like laughing, making them smile is enough to produce beneficial effects similar to those caused by laughter. ‎ A. Laughter can prolong one’s life.‎ B. As a result of these discoveries, some doctors in the United States now hold laughter clinics in which they help to improve their patients’ condition by encouraging them to laugh. ‎ C. The reason why laughter can reduce pain seems to be that it helps to produce a kind of chemicals in the brain which diminish both stress and pain.‎ D. It increases blood pressure, the heart beating and breathing; it also works several groups of muscles in the face, the stomach and even the feet.‎ E. Although laughter helps cure the disease, doctors still can not put this theory into clinic practice.‎ ‎ F. Laughter is the best medicine.‎ ‎ G. They have found that laughter really can improve people’s health ‎8‎ Why do some people have many friends while others do not? 1 However, it is not so. Let’s look at two psychological experiments which will give you the key to happy interpersonal relations.‎ The first experiment is called the “Hawthorne effect” after Hawthorne‎, ‎Illinois, where the experiment took place. A group of psychologists examined the work patterns of two groups of workers in the Western Electric Company. 2 .The psychologists changed the working conditions for one group twice but left the other group alone. They were surprised to find that productivity increase on both occasions and in both groups. They concluded that the increase in productivity came from the attention given to the workers by the management. It had increased their motivation and so they had worked harder. In other words, if you take an interest in others, they will want to please you and you will have good relations with them.‎ ‎3 After Martin Luther King, Jr was killed in the 1960s, a teacher, Jane Elliott, living in an all-white town decided to help her class of young children understand why the Civil Rights Movement had been necessary in America.‎ She divided the class into two groups: one with blue eyes and the other with brown eyes. Other eye colours such as hazel or green were excluded from his exercise. Then she told the class that brown-eyed people were cleverer than blue-eyed ones because of an agent for brown colour found in their blood. Blue -eyed people were stupid, lazy and not to be trusted. Jane Elliott did not need to say any more. The brown -eyed students quickly got used to their new role as the leaders of the class. The blue-eyed students became quiet and withdrawn. Then she discovered something very interesting. Four poor brown-eyed readers began to read fluently in a way they had never done before. 4 .So if you want to be successful and happy, take an interest in others whether they are your classmates or workmates. Congratulate them on their successes and sympathize(同情) with them in their troubles. 5 .‎ A. Before the experiment the management talked to both groups of workers and explained that they wanted to find the best working environment for them.‎ B. Remember that the way you treat others will decide their attitude and behaviour to you.‎ C. The second experiment shows what happens to personal relations if you are rude to or ignore（忽略） others.‎ D. The ones who have more friends usually are those who care about others.‎ E. Jane Elliott had shown that the way people are treated affects not only their behaviour but also their confidence and their performance.‎ F. You may even imagine that this ability was something they were born with because it seems so effortless to them.‎ G. The second experiment tells us what teachers said has a great effect on the students FACEB ‎9‎ The seven Cs of a good letter What is the secret of writing a good letter? Here are two main ones.

They can be exciting films but sometimes all you want is a little light-hearted entertainment.‎ ‎   Have you heard of Bollywood? All singing, all dancing and unrealistic, it is the perfect alternative to normal Hollywood movies. Bollywood is the Indian film industry, based in Mumbai, formerly known as Bombay.   1   Yet Bollywood is the largest producer of films in the world. This year the Indian Filmgare Awards, Bollywood's Oscars, turn 50 years old.‎ ‎   The typical Bollywood movie usually has the following ingredients: a cup of romance, a tea-spoon of comedy, a dash of international sight-seeing, served with a huge slice of singing and dancing. There will also be one brave hero, one beautiful heroine and one baddie.   2 ‎ Bollywood films are full of ideal things and free of daily worries.   3   The actors change clothes and locations ‎ within a single song. But the audience don't mind. To Indian movie lovers, especially the poor, such films are a gateway to heaven and the stars are their gods. The films take them to a magical world away from their everyday troubles. The films tell them the impossible is possible and that true love conquers all.‎ ‎      4   Behind the beautiful scenes, Bollywood still emphasizes traditional family values. In most films, if two lovers want to break an arranged marriage, they can't just run away. They must win over their parents.‎ ‎    Bollywood is a decent refreshing replacement for those over-stimulating Hollywood films.   5   They will take you to a brighter, cheerier and more colorful world, where it's still cool to dance around a tree and sing a love song.‎ A．Bollywood has gradually won its reputation on the world stage.‎ B．There is never any mention of politics, poverty or war.‎ C．Most Chinese school kids have probably never seen an Indian film.‎ D．Bollywood films are mostly comic romances with light-hearted incidental music.‎ E.  Bollywood pays great attention to traditional values. ‎ F．The result is a fun-filled musical.‎ G．So if you're tired of all that Hollywood actions, check out the following Bollywood films.‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎  (二)‎ The Internet has opened up a whole new online world for us to meet, chat and go where we’ve never been before.‎ But just as in face to face communication, there are some rules of behavior that should be followed when on line.  1   Imagine how you’d feel if you were in the other person’s shoes.‎ For anything you’re about to send: ask yourself, “Would I say this to the person’s face?” If the answer is no, rewrite and reread.   2 ‎ If someone in the chat room is rude to you, your instinct (本能) is to fire back in the same manner. But try not to do so.  3   If it was caused by a disagreement with another member, try to fix the situation by politely discussing it. Remember to respect the beliefs and opinions of others in the chat room.‎ ‎4   Offer advice when asked by newcomers, as they may not be sure what to do or how to communicate. When someone makes a mistake, whether it’s a stupid question or an unnecessarily long answer, be kind about it. If it’s a small mistake, you may not need to say anything. Even if you feel strongly about it, think twice before saying anything. Having good manners yourself doesn’t give you license to correct everyone else.  5   At the same time, if you find you are wrong, be sure to correct yourself and apologize to those that you have offended.‎ It is not polite to ask others personal questions such as their age, sex and marital status. Unless you know the person very well, and you are both comfortable with sharing personal information, don’t ask such questions.‎ A. It’s natural that there some people who speak rudely or make mistakes online.‎ B. Repeat the process till you feel sure that you’d feel comfortable saying the words to the person’s face.‎ C. Everyone was new to the network once.‎ D. The basic rule is simple: treat others in the same way you would want to be treated.‎ E. When you send short messages to a person online, you must say something beautiful to hear.‎ F. You should either ignore the person, or use your chat software to block their messages.‎ G. If you do decide to tell someone about a mistake, point it out politely.‎ ‎                                ‎ ‎  ‎ ‎ (三)‎ Before going outside in the morning, many of us check a window thermometer(温度计)for the temperature. This helps us decide what to wear. _____1____. We want our food to be a certain coldness in the refrigerator. We want it a certain hotness in the oven. If we don’t feel well, we use a thermometer to see if we have a fever. We keep our rooms a certain warmth in the winter and a certain coolness in the summer.‎ Not all the thermometers use the same system to measure temperature. We use a system called the Fahrenheit scale. But most other countries use the Centigrade scale.‎ Both systems use the freezing and boiling points of water as their guide._____2_____ .‎ The most common kind of thermometer is made with mercury(水银)inside a clear glass tube. As mercury (or any other liquid ) becomes hot, it expands. As it gets colder, it contracts(收缩). That is why on hot days the mercury line is high in the glass tube._____3______.‎ First. Take a clear glass juice bottle that has a cap ; fill the bottle with coloured water. Tap a hole in the center of the cap using a hammer and thick nail. Put the cap on the jar. Then stick a plastic straw(吸管) through the nail hole.‎ ‎______4______.‎ Finally. Place a white card on the outside of the bottle and behind the straw. Now you can see the water lever easily.‎ ‎______5____.‎ As the temperature goes down, the water will contract, and the lever in the straw will come down. Perhaps you will want to keep a record of the water lever in the straw each morning for a week.‎ ‎       A．We use and depend on thermometers to measure the temperature of many other things in our daily lives.‎ ‎       B．Thermometers measure temperature, by using materials that change in the same way when they are heated or cooled.‎ ‎       C．Now that you know this rule you can make a thermometer of your own that will work.‎ ‎       D．The water will rise in the straw. As the temperature of the air goes up, the water will expand and rise even higher.‎ ‎       E．They label these in different ways. On the Fahrenheit scale water freezes at 32 degrees and boils at 212 degrees. On the Celsius scale water freezes at 0 degrees and boils at 100degrees.‎ ‎       F．Take wax (you may use an old candle if you have one) and melt some of it right where the straw is struck into the cap to seal把..粘住) them together.‎ ‎       G．People use thermometers which are made by themselves when travelling around the world.‎ ‎                                ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎(四)‎ ‎_  1  _ One of the best things you can possibly do is to start you own club． It’s great fun especially if you are the sort of person who feels there’s never anything to do during the school holidays．‎ The first thing you need to come up with is an idea for your club．  _2  _ Pets, clothes, pop music or dancing groups, sports, making things? The list is endless．‎ Next you need some friends to be in your club with you．   3  _ All you need is three or four other people who are interested in the same thing as you．‎ ‎   4   You should all sit down somewhere together with lots of pieces of paper and write down every name you can think up． That’ll keep you busy for ages．‎ At your first meeting you should make up a rule book． And the first rule should be no grown-ups or little/big brothers or sisters! The best clubs are always secret!‎ Now you have just about everything you need, except membership cards． These are very important and again you can speed a lot of time making them．    5       Why not leave some space for a photo of yourself?
