(四)A mysteriousblack cloudapproaches the earth-our planet s weather is severely affected.Throughout the rest of June and July temperatures rose steadily all over the Earth.In the British isles the temperature climbed through the eighties, into the nineties, and moved towards the hundred mark.People complained, but there was no serious disaster.The death number in the U.S.Remained quite small, thanks largely to the air-conditioning units that had been fitted during previous years and months.Temperatures rose to the limit of human endurance throughout the whole country and people were obliged to remain indoors for weeks on end.Occasionally air-conditioning units failed and it was then that fatalities occurred.Conditions were utterly desperate throughout the tropicsas may be judged from the fact that 7943 species of plants and animals became totally extinct.The survival of Man himself was only possible because of the caves and cellarshe was able to dig.Nothing could be done to reduce the hot air temperature.More than seven hundred million persons are known to have lost their lives.Eventually the temperature of the surface waters of the sea rose, not so fast as the air temperature it is true, but fast enough to produce a dangerous increase of humidity.It was indeed this increase that produced the disastrous conditions just remarked.Millions of people between the latitudes of Cairo and the Cape of Good Hope were subjected to a choking atmosphere that grew damper and hotter from day to day.All human movement ceased.There was nothing to be done but to lie breathing quickly as a dog does in hot weather.By the fourth week of July conditions in the tropics lay balanced between life and total death.Then quite suddenly rain clouds appeared over the whole globe.The temperature declined a little, due no doubt to the clouds reflecting more of the Sun s radiation back into space, But conditions could not be said to have improved.Warm rain fell everywhere, even as far north as Iceland.The insect population increased enormously, since the burning hot atmosphere was as favorable to them as it was unfavorable to Man many other animals.81.In the British Isles the temperature.A)stayed at eighty

Tea drinking was common in China for nearly one thousand years before anyone in Europe had ever heard about tea.People in Britain were much slower in finding out what tea was like, mainly because tea was very expensive.It could not be bought in shops and even those people who could afford to have it sent from Holland did so only because it was a fashionable curiosity.Some of them were not sure how to use it.They thought it was a vegetable and tried cooking the leaves.Then they served them mixed with butter and salt.They soon discovered their mistake but many people used to spread the used tea leaves on bread and give them to their children as sandwiches.Tea remained scarce and very expensive in England until the ships of the East India Company began to bring it direct from China early in the seventeenth century.During the next few years so much tea came into the country that the price fell and many people could afford to buy it.At the same time people on the Continent were becoming more and more fond of tea.Until then tea had been drunk without milk in it, but one day a famous French lady named Madame de Sevigne decided to see what tea tasted like when milk was added.She found it so pleasant that she would never again drink it without milk.Because she was such a great lady her friends thought they must copy everything she did, so they also drank their tea with milk in it.Slowly this habit spread until it reached England and today only very few Britons drink tea without milk.At first, tea was usually drunk after dinner in the evening No one ever thought of drinking tea in the afternoon until a duchess found that a cup of tea and a piece of cake at three or four o clock stopped her gettinga sinking feelingas she called it.She invited her friends to have this new meal with her and so, tea-time was born.76.Which of the following is true of the introduction of tea into Britain?

【职场英语】白手起家必备秘籍
How to Really Start a Business(or Why You Don’t Need Money to Make Money)创业之道——赚钱无需花钱
Everyone has excuses about why they can’t(actually won’t)earn more money.A common excuse is, ―I need money to make money‖.对于为什么不能(实际上是不去)挣更多钱,每个人都有自己的理由。其中最常见的要数:―想创业挣钱,我得先有足够的钱‖。
You and I know that’s a myth(you do know that’s a myth, right?), but most people take it as a truism.你我都知晓这个理由并不是真的(你不会不知道吧?),但大多数人却把它当作真理。
A lot of people think they need tens of thousands of dollars to get in on a franchise, or put cash down for a rental property, or buy into some silly multilevel marketing scheme.许多人认为他们需要一大笔资金去获得特许经营权,或是支付租金,亦或是引入荒诞的多层级营销方案。
The fact is, there are plenty of ways to make money without the need for a pile of cash — as Chris Guillebeau’s recent book, The $100 Startup, covers.The first step is to realize that there are always multiple solutions to any problem, whether it’s making more money, building your retirement nest egg/strongbox, or bartering for broccoli.但实际上,有很多方法既可以赚钱,又无需大把原始资金,就像克里斯·古里博的新书《100美元起家》所描述的那样。第一步是要意识到凡事总有多种解决之道,无论是赚更多的钱、为日后养老储备资金、还是与人交换西兰花。
Must-have tools for creating a business on the cheap are:
白手起家必备秘籍:
• A bootstrapping mindset: How can you get or do something for free or extremely low cost? Again, creative brainstorming and flexible thinking will help you figure out how to accomplish a task on a shoestring.Check out some more specific bootstrapping principles to get you started.• 步步为营:怎样才能白手起家呢?创造性思维、灵活应变的能力都可以让你以极少的钱完成任务。再多找些具体的步步为营法则看看,让自己顺利起步吧。(注:Bootstrapping来自于20世纪初期美国流传的一句―提着鞋带把自己举起来‖的谚语,其本质就是一种步步为营、循序渐进的思想,指的是创业者在资源有限的条件下,发掘机会,创建新事业并实现价值。)• Small steps and a willingness to experiment: This is the iterative, lean startup approach, where you try something small & fast, learn from it, and improve.What? You haven’t heard of the lean startup approach? Well, start reading up on it.It’ll save you from wasting time and money, and reduce startup frustration and misery.• 脚踏实地,勇于尝试:这一环节,创业者所要做的就是重复的精益创业。在此期间,创业者可以做各种小而快的尝试,从中获取经验和教训,提升自己的实力。什么?你竟然没听说过―精益创业‖?好吧,那么先好好钻研一番吧。你的时间和金钱将不再被浪费,起步的挫折与痛苦将会减轻。(注:lean startup以一个远景假设为出发点,通过快速、低成本的验证方式,验证产品与市场的契合度,不断迭代并及时调整方向。)
• Market validation: Again, from the lean startup/customer development paradigm, make sure that you’re offering something that people want and will pay for.What what? You haven’t heard of customer development either? Not a problem.There’s great info out there to get you started.• 市场调研:同样地,从精益创业/发展客户范式入手,确保你所提供的产品是有需求的,客户是愿意付钱买的。什么什么?你也没听说过发展客户?关于这方面的信息可是有很多呢,你可以了解后再开始创业。
With all that said, you’ll also need to recognize your barriers to actually starting down the road of entrepreneurship.Here’s a list of the top 4 excuses people give for not making more money:
除了上述所说,你还需要认识一些创业路上的―障碍物‖。以下便是其中四种最常见的不愿赚钱的借口:
No time一无时间No money二无资金No expertise三无专业技能No ideas四无想法
When you reflect on why you haven’t started exploring how to earn more money, probably every one of your barriers(excuses!)falls into one of the above categories.You might say to yourself: 当你沉思自己为何还没开始探索挣钱的方法时,没准你的理由(借口!)就是上述四种里的一种。你也许会自言自语道:
• ―Starting a business is too complicated.‖ Nope.That’s the ―no expertise‖ excuse.• ―创业太复杂了。‖ 其实不然。说实话,这个理由真是太不专业了。
• ―But I work insane hours, have eleventeen kids, and a 4-hour commute.‖ Granted, you might have limitations on your time, but you’ll always make time for the things that are most important.And 20-30 minutes a day is something you can carve out–especially if it’ll change your life.• ―我每天要疯狂地工作,上下班就要花四个小时,还有群十几岁的孩子要看管。‖ 的确,时间或许很有限,但你总能为最重要的那些事留出时间。我想,一天20-30分钟你还是可以抽出来的,尤其是当它可能改变你的生活之时。
• ―But I don’t have $10 grand to fund a business.‖ OK, go back to the top of the article and re-read it.Done? OK.Repeat after me: ―I can start a business for under $100.‖ Say it again.And again.Know that there are many ways to do any task.Sometimes the first thing that comes to mind is some high-falutin’, expensive way.Dig deeper.Focus on exactly what the outcome is, and brainstorm all the crazy ways you could get to it.I guarantee you’ll find ways to get it done on the cheap.• ―可我连10美元都没有,如何创业?‖好吧,如果是这个问题,那么请你回到文章的开头,重新阅读一遍吧。看完了?好的,跟我念,―100美元之内,我照样可以创业‖,多说几遍。要知道,条条大路通罗马,虽然有时候脑子里总是会先想到一些不切实际又昂贵的方法。继续钻研下去,将焦点集中于产出,头脑风暴一下你所能想到的各种疯狂办法。我向你保证,你一定会找到白手起家的妙招的。
• ―But I don’t have any ideas for a business.‖ Try this: train yourself to look for problems.That’s right — look for problems throughout the day, every day.Jot them down in a notebook.Remember that every problem is an opportunity.Successful, sustainable businesses solve problems.Don’t want to cook dinner? Go to a restaurant.Problem solved.Hate to iron your clothes? Take them to a dry cleaner.Problem solved.Want to find & stay in touch with friends? Join Facebook.Problem solved.(You get the idea.)
• ―但是我还缺少创业的想法‖。不妨多练习练习发现问题——每天的每时每刻,试着去发现问题,然后记录下来。你一定要认识到,任何一个问题都有可能变成机会。那些成功且持久的事业都是为人解决问题的。不想做饭?那去餐馆,问题解决了;不想熨衣服?送去干洗店,问题解决了;想和朋友保持联系?注册脸谱网,问题解决了。(你明白了吧?)
It’ll take hard work, but the payoff is worth it
虽然创业很艰辛,但是回报很丰厚,值了!
Starting and building a successful business takes hard work.But since you’re reading this, you and I both know you have an urge for something better.You daydream at work about quitting your job.You curse your commute and wish you could ditch your day job.You feel stuck at a job you hate.成功的事业在开始建立的过程中,不下苦功夫是肯定不行的。但是鉴于你都已经阅读到此,你那份憧憬着更美好事物的急切心情也已经显而易见。也许你在工作时会想象自己离职的画面,你咒骂着每天往返耗时之久,渴望有朝一日能摆脱这种生活。这份讨厌的工作让你不知所措。
While starting a business may not solve all your problems, it can give you a completely new worldview that’s empowering and full of possibilities.It took me a long time to get past my mental barriers and excuses before I started my own business, but when I began taking action, I started seeing things change.A few years down the road, I earn much more, have more financial security, more flexibility, and have no reason to complain about work.It’s been an amazing turnaround.也许创业并不能解决你所有的问题,但是它会带给你全新的世界观,使你更有主见,也带给你无限可能。就我而言,在创业之前,光破除心理的藩篱就耗费了我大量时间。但是当我决定付诸行动之时,我惊觉很多事情在发生改变。数年之后,我赚了不少钱,经济上有了更多的保障,处事也更加灵活多变,对工作的抱怨自然也就烟消云散了。难道说这个转变还不能称得上神奇吗?
And while I’ve learned a thing or two about how to do things on the cheap since I started my business, I was still able to start my business inexpensively–and so can you.Now though, you have the advantage of tons more free and low-cost tools for starting your business.The most important things in your toolbox are a bootstrapping mindset, a focus on experimentation, and providing value.创业之时,我还学会了一些白手起家的小窍门。即便是现在,让我白手起家闯出一番天地,也未尝不可,那么你也一样。虽然现在出现了更多免费或廉价的工具,让你握有优势,但对于创业来说,最重要的还是步步为营的理念、对反复试验的注重、以及提供有价值之物。Simple Ways to Break Your Bad Mood
Some days it seems like everything is going wrong.On these days the world looks gray, bleak and barren.Other days, maybe everything is going right.But you’re still miserable.You don’t always have to understand why you’re in a bad mood in order to change it.These seven strategies can help.1.Get outside.Being in nature can help to lift your mood and even lull your nervous system.For instance, this 2010 studyfound that ―forest environments promote lower concentrations of cortisol, lower pulse rate, lower blood pressure, greater parasympathetic nerve activity, and lower sympathetic nerve activity than do city environments.‖
So when you wake up on the wrong side of the bed, try visiting a park or body of water, suggests Darlene Mininni, Ph.D, MPH, author ofThe Emotional Toolkit.Or bring nature indoors by surrounding yourself with plants and flowers, getting a water fountain for your desk or getting a
fish tank.2.Listen to music.―Get out your absolute favorite grouchy, wallowy music and relish in tunes that match your mood for as long as it feels good, ‖ suggestsAshley Eder, LPC, a psychotherapist in Boulder, CO.Then when you start feeling better, adjust your music to fit your brighter feelings, she said.The opposite can also help.According to Mininni, if you’re upset, try listening to uplifting music.If you’re anxious or worried about something, try listening to soothing music, she said.This study found that listening to classical music for just 10 minutes minimized participants’ negative moods.Other research found that listening to music lowered blood pressure, heart rate and levels of the stress hormone cortisol.(This study found these effects in 54 nurses who listened to soothing music for 30 minutes.)
Combining calming tunes with slow breathing also might help.Thisresearch found that participants with high blood pressure who listened to 30 minutes of classic, Celtic or Indian music while performing breathing exercises had significantly lower blood pressure than those who didn’t.3.Embody your bad mood.―Ask your bad mood how it wants to move and honor its impulses in safe — but sometimes messy — ways like smashing eggs, breaking old dishes, ripping up paper, or punching pillows, ‖ Eder said.4.Tune into your murky mood.―Try getting quiet and asking the cranky part of yourself what it’s upset about, ‖ said Eder.In other words, instead of fighting with your feelings, figure out what you need.Let your mood be your messenger, she said.―Sometimes just honoring the impulse to have some alone-time, get more sleep, ask for help with something, or take space in a relationship is what you need to feel more at peace, ‖ Eder said.5.Assume control.People who feel like they have some control over their lives are happier than people who feel powerless, Mininni said.If there’s a particular situation that’s bothering you, identify the elements youcan control, she said.For instance, if your partner is sick, learn more about their condition, she said.But even the smallest things count.Sometimes the only thing you might be able to control is your wakeup time, and that’s important, too, she said.6.Engage in activities that honor your natural temperament.If you’re an introvert, Eder suggested carving out alone time.If you’re an extrovert, she suggested talking to a friend or being anywhere with people like a coffee shop.A bit of both? ―Schedule a time-limited activity with a person who consistently feels nourishing, followed by uninterrupted downtime, ‖ she said.7.Ride out your bad mood.Some days no matter the tactics you try, you still feel bad.If that’s the case, ―Acknowledge it, befriend it, and wait, ‖ Eder said.―Give yourself permission to make yourself comfortable, whether that means watching old episodes of Gossip Girl, playing Angry Birds, or by taking a nap, ‖ she said.Remember that ―It’s OK to have a bad day, and it’ll pass, ‖ Eder said.

(学习英语的唯一方法)
Great!So I have a chance to show , thank you for giving me the opportunity.Standing here makes me really happy and excited.I can speak good english.Thanks to my Matta.You know , he is English teacher , he is a great guy.After learning English.I have a lot of confidence in my life , I have a strong desire to speak English to everyone every chance I get.To be honest , I really cann’t stand my poor english , I want to improve my situation , I want to change my life.I want to speak perfect English.Matta encourages us quite often.he says speaking English is a piece of cake.Don’t shy to speak , quit worrying about making mistakes.The more mistakes you make , the more progress you make.However , he asks us to practise as loudly as possible ,as quickly as possible , as clearly as possible.Most importantly ,as he says,practice , practice , practice and more practice is the only way to learn English.In my opinion , don’t hesitate to learn English.If you put your heart and soul into it , it will be an easy thing for you , you will be a winner.
