Many parents pressure their kids to choose one sport and devote all their time to it.【 B3】 _But 66 percent of the young athle

23、tes wanted to play more than one sport for fun. Another problem is the pressure imposed by over-competitive parents and coaches. Children are not naturally competitive.

28、(陷阱 ) salt. A study by researchers at the University of California, San Francisco(UCSF), Stanford University and Columbia University shows that even a【 C1】 _decrease in daily salt intake(摄入 )can lead to dramatic health benefits. The authors【 C2】 _an annual drop of as many as 120,000 cases of heart d

Mark your answers on ANSWER SHEET 1. 40 Mistakes are the things that nobody wants, but we still make mistakes at any age. S

34、ome mistakes we make are about money. Some are about work or jobs.

Or did he envy my luck?“ “And why didnt Andy pick up that I was friend

35、ly just because 1 had a car?“ When we look back, doubts like these can make us feel bad. But when we look back, its too late. Why do we go wrong about our friends or our enemies?

36、en we miss the feeling behind the words. Suppose someone tells you, “Youre a lucky dog“ thats being friendly. But “lucky dog“? Theres a bit of envy in those words. Maybe he doesnt see it himself. But bringing in the “dog“ bit puts you down a little. What he may be saying is that he doesnt think you

37、deserve your luck. “Just think of all the things you have to be thankful for“ is another noise that says one thing and means another. It could mean that the speaker is trying to get you to see your problem as part of your life as a whole. But is he? Wrapped up in this phrase is the thought that your

38、 problem isnt important. Its telling you to think of all the starving people in the world when you havent got a date for Saturday night. How can you tell the real meaning behind someones words? One way is to take a good look at the person talking. Do his words fit the way he looks? Does what he says

Because the sender of these rubbish short messages do not take into account whether people need them or not, and do

47、 not get the permission from users to transmit these rubbish short messages to them. As we know, everyone has the right to communication freely with other people, and the right to refuse communication with people they dont like to. But these rights were not guaranteed in SMS. Users do not receive ru

48、bbish short messages on a voluntary basis.
