If we want to deal with the association (社交) between boys and girls properly, here are some "dos and
don'ts" for you to follow.
    Keep a normal and healthy state of mind. Our schools and classes are made up of boys and girls. It is very
nature for the boys and girls to make friends with each other. We should make as many friends as possible.
We should keep touch with the other sex (性別) in public instead of in secret.
    Don't be too nervous or too shy. If you are a shy person, you can also find a way out. First of all, you can
make friend with the students who have the same interest and hobby as you. As both of you have much in
common, you may have much to talk about. If you keep doing like that, little by little, you will gladly find you
are also as free to express yourself as others.
    Don't fall into the ditch of early love. The boys and girls at a adolescence (青春期) are rich in feeling. They
are easy to regard the friendship as a sign of love and fall in love with each other at an early age. In my opinion, early love is a green apple that can't be eaten. An apple won't taste sweet until it is full ripe. Boys and girls at
middle school are too young to carry the heavy duty of love. Do keep out of early love.

     Who would you choose for a leader, a man or a woman? Many would say a man. (1) In their eyes, men
make better decisions and have stronger minds than women. This is not true with Chinese vice premier
Madame Wu Yi.
     The spring of 2003 was a difficult time for China. SARS was hitting the country hard. The government
was facing questions from both inside and outside China. Who could help the country through? The task went
to the 65-year-old Wu Yi.
     Wu was as tough as any man in a crisis (危機). Within a month she had set up a national medical network (醫(yī)療系統(tǒng)) to deal with the disease. (2) In just seven days Xiaotangshan Hospital was built for SARS patients.
     Under Wu's leadership (領(lǐng)導(dǎo)), the disease was quickly under control. But Wu faced many difficult problems. (3) She was very worried. She had to take pills just to be able to sleep at night. "I had no choice but to get the
job done," said Wu.

working and playing. But in one special program in New York State, adults and teenagers live together in
a friendly way.

fun in work. Some teenagers work in the forests or on the farms near the village. Some learn to make things

     I never wanted a dog, but now I'm so glad I have one.
     About one year ago, my wife, Mary, got a little dog with a face only a mother could love. We named
her Baby.
     Baby is the kind of dog that has to grow on you. So I decided that the dog would be trained. This didn't
quite go as planned. At 15 weeks old, she was nearly made to leave the Petsmart Training School. She spent
every night lying in our bed-snoring (打鼾) so loudly that I hardly got a good night's sleep.
     Then, about six months after she arrived, I felt that something in my heart was taking place, and I was
unable to stop it. My behavior (行為方式) began to change. I began to smile at people when passing them
in a street. I returned from neighbors. I started calling my kids and, to my surprise, they started calling me.
I even tried to speak to my grandchildren over the phone once. I even was glad to listen to laughter from a
10-month-old granddaughter. The point is that I was changing.
     My wife and I both agree that it is Baby who has changed my behavior.

     (1) Although we may not realize it, when we talk with others we make ourselves understood not just
by words. We send messages to the people around us also by body movements. A smile and handshake
(握手) show welcome. Waving one's hand is to say "Goodbye." Nodding the head means agreement, while
shaking it means disagreement. In China and some English-speaking countries, these body movements have
the same meanings.
     But not all body languages mean the same things in different countries. For example, nodding the head in
some Asian countries means not "Yes." but "No:"
     When we speak a foreign language, (2) to know the meanings of the body movements is important in-the
foreign countries. In Russia, France and some of South American countries men kiss (吻) each other when
they meet. Men don't kiss each other in China or English-speaking countries. In England, older people usually
shake hands when they meet someone for the first time, however, young people don't shake hands. (3) In
France, people shake hands in the office every morning. French people kiss each other more often than English
people when they meet or leave.
