    No summer beach vacation in the northeast U. S. A state of Massachusetts is complete without an order of fried clams at a seaside restaurant. People enjoy eating the shellfish, which are dipped(蘸) in a mixture made from flour, water and spices and then cooked in hot oil.

    One restaurant known for its seafood is Nancy’s on Matha’s Vineyard.

    Martha’s Vineyard is a small island off the coast of Massachusetts U. S. President Barack Obama and his family like to visit Martha’s Vineyard in the summer. The Obama family often eats at Nancy’s during their vacations. It seems that one Obama has even started working at Nancy’s this summer.

Her last day is Saturday, when the rest of the Obama family arrives for vacation. One of the other workers at the restaurant said Sasha started working earlier the week. She has been using her full name, Natasha, while on the job.

    Many people followed the story on social media.“Sasha Obama” became a hot twitter topic. One person wrote on Twitter: “Keeping it real.” Another added hash-tag “Respect”. But a third person twittered that someone else who really needs the money should have the job. He said that Sasha Obama was only working because people would like the story.

    A Different Kind of Spring Break

    For many American university students, the weeklong spring break holiday means an endless party on a sunny beach. In Panama City Beach, Florida more than half a million university students arrive during the month of March to play and party, making it the number one spring break place in the United States.

    A weeklong party is not for everyone, however, and a growing number of American university students have found a way to make spring break matter. For them, joining or leading a group of volunteers to help solve problems such as homelessness or environmental damage makes spring break a special learning experience that university students can feel good about.

    During one spring break week, students from James Madison University in Virginia took part in 15 “spring break” trips to nearby states, three others to more distant parts of the United States, and five international trips. One group of JMU students traveled to Bogalusa, Louisiana, to help rebuild homes damaged by Hurricane (飓风) Katrina. Another group traveled to Mississippi to organize creative activities for children living in a homeless shelter. One group of students did go to Florida, but not to lie on the sand. They did some work to help protect the native Florida plants.

    Students who take part in spring break projects find them very rewarding (值得的). While most university students have to get their degrees before they can start helping people, student volunteers are able to help people right now without degrees. On the other hand, the buildings or rooms they live or stay are far from attractive. Students often sleep on the floor of a school or church. But they only pay around $250 for meals and transportation, which is much less than some of their friends spend traveling to more traditional spring break hot spots.

    Spring break projects appear to be growing in popularity at universities across the United States. Some students take the opportunity to meet new friends. Others want to exercise their beliefs to make the world a better place. Whatever their reasons, these students have discovered something that give them rich rewards along with a break from school work.

    2.What is the way to make spring break matter for some students?

    3.How did the students help in Bogalusa, Louisiana?

    People can’t see you when you’re speaking on the phone, but they can hear you. So, the way you speak is especially important. In fact, researchers have found that 80% of communication over the phone is through your tone（语气）of voice; and only 20% is from the words you use. Here are our top tips on how to speak over the phone.

    1.Facial Expressions

    Your facial expressions can influence your voice. For example, if you smile, your voice will sound warm and friendly, just the opposite, if you have an angry look on your face, it can make you sound unpleasant.

    2.Volume（音量）

    If you speak too loudly, you could sound angry. And if you speak too softly, it’ll be difficult to hear you. So, speak loudly enough to be heard clearly, but not so loud that you’re shouting.

    3.Pace

    The pace of your voice is how quickly you speak. And this can show how you feel. For example, an angry person might speak faster than normal. Or a downhearted person might speak very slowly. Try speaking a little more slowly than normal. This will make you sound confident, and it’ll make it easier for the other person to understand you.

    4.Gestures（手势）

    Gesturing can influence the tone of your voice. When you gesture, you bring more air into the lungs, which can make your voice sound warmer. Gestures are also useful to help you stress the right words or even find the words you need. The best thing about gesturing during a phone call is that no one can see what you’re doing, so you can gesture as wildly as you like!

    5.Movement

    If you’re feeling nervous, stand up and move around. It will reduce the nervousness in your body and help your voice to sound more confident.

    6. Pauses（停顿）

    Using pauses every now and then can help you to slow down. This will make you sound more confident and in control. Also, if you pause after giving some new information, it’ll give the other person time to understand it. At the same time, listen to how the other person uses pauses. They could tell you something about the speaker’s feeling. For example, when a speaker is really angry, he might use pauses and say, “I... am... so... angry...”

    1.Can your facial expressions influence your voice?

    ___________________________________________________________

    2.What is the pace of voice?

    ___________________________________________________________

    3.What is the best thing about gestures during phone call?

    4.What can people do to reduce their nervousness on the phone?

    ___________________________________________________________

    5.What is the passage mainly about?

    ___________________________________________________________

    1.Yes, it can. 2.The pace of your/our voice is how quickly you/we speak. 3.No one can see what you’re doing. 4.Stand up and move around. 5.Top tips on how to speak over the phone. 【解析】本...

    Since May 1, 2015, Beijing started to allow blind people to take guide dogs (导盲犬) onto the subway(地铁). How much do you know about guide dogs? What can they do to help blind people?

    Not every dog can become a guide dog. The most common guide dog breeds (品种) are Labrador Retrievers (拉布拉多猎犬) and Golden Retrievers (金毛猎犬). That’s because they are smart and have a good temper.

    To help blind people, dogs need to learn many skills, such as finding and following a clear road, moving around obstacles (障碍物), and stopping when they reach a curb (路牙) beside a road. Of course they should pass tests. They also need to learn an important lesson known as “intelligent disobedience (智能抗命)”. For example, blind people ask the dog to go forward when crossing a road. But if the dog knows that a car is coming, it will not move until it is safe.

    At about 10 or 12 years old, guide dogs retire(退休). Some of them stay at their owner’s home and become their pets. Others may go back to training schools and live there.

    What can a guide dog do to help blind people?

    • Follow a direct road, paying no attention to other things such as smells, animals and people.

    • Keep a steady (稳定的) pace and just ahead of the owner.

    • Stop at all curbs until the handler tells them to move forward.

    • Stay quiet when the owner is sitting down.

    • Help the owner to move around buses, subways and other public transportation.

    1.What can blind people in Beijing do when they go out by subway?

    _________________________________________________________________

    2.Why do people choose Labrador Retrievers and Golden Retrievers as guide dogs?

    _________________________________________________________________

    3.What important lesson should guide dogs learn?

    _________________________________________________________________

    4.How many things can guide dogs do to help blind people according to the passage?

    _________________________________________________________________

    5.What is the passage about?

    _________________________________________________________________

    1.Take guide dogs onto the subway. 2.Because they’re smart and have a good temper. 3.Intelligent disobedience. 4.Five. 5.(Something about) guide dogs. 【解析】文章介绍了导盲犬的情况。 1.根据Since May ...
