People who speak or perform before the public sometimes may suffer from "Stage Fright". Stage fright makes a person   1 .

Diana Nichols is an expert in helping people free from stage fright at a medical center in New York City. She helps actors learn to   4  themselves. Miss Nichols says some people have always been afraid to perform before the audience. Others, she says, develop stage fright after a sad   5 .
She offers them ways to control the fear. One way is to smile before going onto the stage. Taking two deep breaths   6  helps. Deep breathing helps you get control of your body.
Miss Nichols advises her patients to tell themselves that their speech or performance does not have to be perfect. It's   7  to make a mistake. She tells them they should not be too nervous while they are performing. It is important that they should continue to perform while she is helping them. After each performance, they discuss what happened and   8  what helped and what did not. 9  they perform more and more, they will fear less and less as much as 50%. Miss Nichols says the aim is only to  10  stage fright, not to smooth it away completely. This is because a little stage fright makes a person more careful, and improves the performance.

Dear Mr Zhu,
I am writing to your magazine’s “Teenagers Now” column(专栏) to ask for some help with my 16-year-old son. At the moment, he refuses to do almost everything his mother and I ask him to do. He is our only child and we treat him very well. His grandparents buy him many things, and yet he is still rude to us. He refuses to spend time with us or do as we tell him.

B
People usually talk about two groups of colors: warm colors and cool colors. Scientists think that there are also two kinds of people: people who prefer warm colors and people who prefer cool colors. The warm colors are red, orange and yellow. Where there are warm colors and a lot of lights people usually want to be active. People think that red, for example, is exciting. Sociable people, those who like to be with others, like red.
The cool colors are green, blue and violet. These colors, unlike warm colors, are relaxing. Where there are cool colors, people are usually quiet. People who like to spend time alone often prefer blue. Red may be exciting, but one scientist says that time seems to pass more slowly in a room with warm colors than in a room with cool colors. He says that a warm color, such as red or orange, is good color for a living room or restaurant. People who are resting or eating do not want time to pass quickly.

Cars are lots of fun, but they could also be dangerous. We have to be careful when we drive them or ride in them.
It’s always a good idea to put on your seat belt (安全带) when you’re in a car. Why? Think about this example: You put an egg on a skateboard and give it a push. If the skateboard hits a stone, it will stop, but the egg won’t. It will fly through the air, hit the ground and break.
Now, think what would happen if you tied the egg to the skateboard. When the skateboard hits a stone, the egg won’t go flying; it will stay safely on the skateboard.
Volvo, a famous Swedish carmaker, was the first to use seat belts in 1849.
Air bags are also very important for car safety, because sometimes a seat belt isn’t enough. If the car is going really fast and runs into something, seat belts could even hurt the people who wear them. Most new cars have air bags in front of and next to the seats. When a car hits something, its air bags will come out quickly in less than one second to keep the people inside safe.
小题1:The passage mainly tells us ______.
A.two important ways to keep safe in cars
B.how air bags work to make cars safe
C.how seat belts work to make cars safe
D.why we must tie the egg to the skateboard
小题2: The writer gives the example of the egg to ______.
A.tell us that eggs are easy to break
B.show how to wear a seat belt
C.show why it’s important to wear a seat belt in a car
D.tell us what a skateboard is
小题3: Seat belts can make us safer because ______.
A.we are interested in them
B.they can stop us from hitting other cars
C.they can help us stay safely on the seats
D.they are made of strong materials
小题4: Air bags are important for cars because ______.
A.they are made of plastic
B.they can also help us to keep safe in a car
C.they can keep cars running slowly
D.they’re put in front of and next to the seats
小题5: Which of the following is TRUE according to this passage?
A.When a car hits something, its air bags will come out a few minutes later.
B.It won’t be dangerous if there are seat belts or air bags in a car.
C.Now most of new cars still have only one air bag.
D.Volvo was the first to use seat belts.
