B: Yes: my grandparents, four uncles, three aunts, and eleven cousins.A: Wow, that’s impressive.Is your father’s family that big too?

Unit 1, R10: Relationships, two female students chatting in the classroom
Part 2
A: Cindy
B: Rachel
A: How are you enjoying your American Culture and Society course? B: I like it.The United States is certainly an intriguing country.At the moment, we are looking at the American family.A: What can you tell me about it? I’d be interested in hearing about what you’re learning.B: Well, many American families are known as two-career families.That’s a family where both the husband and wife work outside of the home.A: With both parents working, family income must increase considerably.B: It certainly does.And it also means more husbands do their share of household chores and childcare...Hmm, another type of family is the stepfamily.A: What’s that?
B: This type of family is a result of the higher divorce and remarriage rates in America.It can in fact be quite large because of stepchildren and stepparents.A: I am not really sure what you mean.B: Well, for instance, if a child’s mother remarries, then her second husband becomes her child’s stepfather.If the stepfather has, say, a daughter, then she becomes the child’s stepsister.A: Got it.So that’s why they are called stepfamilies.B: Exactly.BOOK 3

What have you been up to for the last few years? B: I also went abroad.I completed my final two years of high school in Canada and traveled through America and Mexico during the summer holidays.Now I am preparing for my studies in the UK.A: Cool!What will you study?

B: Having a sense of purpose in life.We spend so much of our adult lives working that I want my job to be meaningful.I want to live to work, not work to live!I dream of being able to have a positive impact on the world around us.A: Well, you have a positive impact on me, so you’re off to a good start!

B: My future.My parents want me to go on an exchange program to America, but I want to study in London.A: Why did they want you to study in America? B: Because I have an uncle there who can keep an eye on me.A: You’ve got to somehow make your parents understand that choosing the right exchange program is more important than studying close to extended family.B: I try, but they don’t listen.A: Then perhaps what you need to do is write them a letter.B: A letter? A: Yes, I would advise you to list the pros and cons of studying in London.Ask them to make an effort to do the same about studying in America.Then you can all think calmly about your options, without shouting at each other.B: Ok, I’ll give it a go.BOOK 3

B: Sure, about what?

B: Things like nuts, seeds and beans.A: How long will it take before I start to feel and look better?

B: She was very professional from start to finish so it was hard to read her thoughts, but judging from her body language, I think she was pleased with what I said.A: What do you mean? B: She smiled a lot and maintained good eye contact with me.Plus, at the end of the interview, she gave me a very warm handshake.Warmer than when we greeted.A: That’s a good sign!When will you get an answer?
B: Tomorrow morning.I don’t think I’ll get much sleep tonight!

Do you think that creative ideas come easily, that they just flash into the mind without hard work? Hardly!Sure, creative ideas come all of a sudden.But the fact remains that those sudden thoughts most often come after a person has worked, studied, and tried several other solutions to whatever question he is trying to answer.Most often, even after he has come up with his creative idea, the person will have to test it and then think more about it.Sometimes this can take decades.If you want to invent a creative idea of your own, you must be active!Learn as much as possible and try out many solutions.After trying out countless other ideas, the perfect, most creative idea will certainly come to you.(Words: 128)

Cherish the love from others As a college students ,I think ,it is a must and necessary event for our everyone in the world.Because , we live in the world ,we can receive the love and the help from people around us from time to time.Even though , some love can not play important role when we are in difficult.We also should cherish their love for us.It is not only our reward to the people who help us but can see one person quality to others.All in all , I think ,we should cherish the love for others.Be aware of mental health Abstract with the development and changes of the modern society, the future society put forward higher requirements for the quality of people, requiring every person to have the spirit of facing the reality, not being afraid of difficulties having the pioneering spirit, with the ability to co-operation, communication and the innovative spirit.This means that the cross-century generation not only should have good intelligence quality, but also have a healthy psychology.So we can say, kindergarten education is the foundation of the quality education of our people, it is not only the preparation for the primary stage of learning and living, more importantly, the preparation for their lifelong development and health psychology.Therefore, we should be aware of mental healthy
My success strategies Firstly, set a goal for myself.Secondly, make up my mind to achieve my goal and spare no effort.Thirdly, seize every chance you meet.At last, keep attitude of continuous study.grasp

What I want to do before die
Now, I am a college student ,if I receive the bad news that I will die ,I think ,the first I want to do is to accompany my parents and enjoy the time with my parents to express my love to them.The second is that ,because I am young ,the life for me is too short to do some thing meaningful ,and to do something I haven’t ever do to realize the value of my life.Besides , I want to tell people to be aware that the life is very fragile, and make them think about the value of their lives and encourage them to make full use of each day to pursue their dreams.5.Great acts are made up of small deeds
Every thing, there are so many little composition.Naturally, the big things also cannot leave the small behavior.For example, obeying your parents will start from things, housework and beat back, wash clothes, etc.We must keep a healthy will starts from the minor matter, exercise, eat vegetables, drink milk, etc.Be good friends with good study will starts from the minor matter, starts homework or before the preview, during the recitation, etc.Therefore, to do every event, begin some ordinary small start!翻译:每一件事,都有许许多多的小东西组成。自然而然,大事情也离不开小行为。例如,孝敬父母要从小事情做起,做家务、捶背、洗衣服等等;要保持健康就要从小事做起,锻炼、吃蔬菜、喝牛奶等等。要好好学习就要从小事做起,做好作业、课前预习、课后复习等等。由此可见,要想做好每一件大事,就要从一些不起眼的小事做起!
