New comers to the United States are often surprised by the schools.American schools sometimes seem so different from schools they know in other parts of the world.American education is based on the idea that children need to learn to think for themselves.The school should be the place where they learn to do this.In school, children learn the“three R's”(Reading, Writing and Arithmetic), history and government(often called Social Studies)and many other subjects.They also learn how to be independent, how to make their own judgment, and how to develop their own abilities and interests.The American teacher does not want the children in her class to sit with hands folded quietly and to say nothing.She wants them to listen attentively, to ask questions.She knows what children learn from books is important.She also knows that it is necessary for them to know how to use this learning for their growth and development.During Open School Week, parents have a chance to see how American education works.

     In our culture, the sources of what we call a sense of "mastery" -feeling important and worthwhile-and
the sources of what we call a sense of "pleasure"-finding life enjoyable-are not always the same. In the past women often were told "You can't have it all." Sometimes what the speaker really is saying is: "You choose a career, so you can't expect to have closer relationships or a happy family life." or "You have a wonderful husband and children-what's all this about wanting a career?" But today women need to_____________,
if they are to feel good about themselves.
     Our study shows that, for women, well-being has two aspects. One is mastery, which includes
self-respect, a sense of control over your life, and low levels of anxiety and depression. Mastery is closely related to the "doing" side of life, to work and activity. Pleasure is the other aspect, and it is made up of
happiness, satisfaction and optimism. It is tied more closely to the "feeling" side of life. The two are
independent of each other. A woman could be high in mastery and low in pleasure, and vice versa
(反之亦然). For example, a woman who has a good job, but whose mother has just died, might be feeling very good about herself and in control of her work life, but the pleasure side could be damaged for a time.
     The concepts of mastery and pleasure can help us identify the sources of well-being for women, and
correct past mistakes. In the past, women were encouraged to look only at the feeling side of life as the
source of all well-being. But we know that both mastery and pleasure are important. And mastery seems
to be achieved largely through work. In our study, all the groups of employed women were valued
significantly higher in mastery than women who were not employed.
     A woman's well-being is developed when she takes on multiple roles. At least by middle adulthood, the women who were involved in a combination of roles-marriages, motherhood, and employment-were the
highest in well-being, in spite of warnings about stress and strain.

     One of the most popular things at Lingan University of Hong Kong is "Breakfast with the President" which
aims to break down student-faculty barriers (障碍). Every week, President Chen Kwan-yin invites students

list. The breakfast starts at 8:00 a.m. You are warned not to be late because President Chen _____. It is a round

suggestions raised during the breakfast will be taken care of.
When my own "Breakfast with the President"

what he said to relax us showed he was an easy-going person.
     Then he asked me about my exchange student life and what he could do to help me. He also discussed with
us many of his dreams for the university's future. He was a very special president, more like a friend. After the

     Every year in the United States about 200 000 people are hospitalized and 36 000 die from the flu.
While colds won't kill you, they can weaken your immune(免疫的)system. We can't promise you'll
never get hit with another cold or suffer the flu, but you can increase your probability of staying well in
these ways.
     Wash your hands often. The Naval Health Research Center conducted a study of 40 000 people
who were ordered to wash their hands five times a day. These people cut their incidence of respiratory
(呼吸的) illnesses by 45 percent.
      Run your toothbrush through the microwave on high for 10 seconds to kill germs that can cause
colds and other illnesses. You think it gets your teeth clean- and it does.
      Get a flu shot every fall. The Centers for Disease Control recommends flu shots for anyone 50 years
old or older. Also, people who work or live with a high-risk person should       _ so they don't spread
the flu. Of course, anyone who just wants to avoid the flu should also get one.
       Stop blaming yourself when things go wrong at work. Believe it or not, blaming yourself makes
you more likely to catch a cold! At least, that's what researchers found when they studied more than
200 workers over three months. Researchers expect such attitudes make people more stressed on the
job, and stress, as you know, can challenge your immune system
.
       Leave the windows in your house open a crack in winter. Not all of them, but one or two in the
rooms in which you spend the most time. A bit of fresh air will do wonders for chasing out germs.
1. What's the best title of the passage? (Please answer within 10 words.)
                                                                                 
2. Which sentence in the passage can be replaced by the following one?
Although we can't make sure that you never get a cold or the flu, you can probably reduce the  chances
of catching a cold or the flu by using these ways.
                                                                              
3. Please fill in the blank in the fourth paragraph to complete the sentence. (Please answer within 10
words.)
                                                                                 
4. What else can you suggest to avoid suffering the flu according to your own experience? Why?
( Please answer within 30 words.)

【1】The air was pleasant and the music was loud in the vast square in front of the New York State office building in Harlem(哈莱姆, 美国纽约市黑人居住区) as health advocates(支持者,提倡者) set up information tables for Harlem wellness Week. It was a wide-ranging effort to educate people about non-communicable diseases: Heart disease, cancer, lung disease, obesity, and so on.

【2】There is an economic effect caused by these diseases, especially in Harlem, one of the city’s poorest districts. Without healthy employees and healthy customers, you cannot have healthy business, says Patricia Ricketts of the Greater Harlem Chamber of Commerce, which sponsors Wellness Week.

【3】Dr. Jo Ivy Boufford is president of the New York Academy of Medicine, a Wellness Week partner. She says education about better nutrition is important, but that people with low incomes often lack the means to put what they know into practice. But there is hope. New York is very active in adovating good, effective public health policies. “New York City has banned smoking in public places, both indoors and outdoors. That is a fantastic example of what can be done, without having any impact on the economy. It is a city where you have bike paths. That is a good message for the world, because bikes make your transport active. That is good for your health and lowers air pollution,” she said.

【4】“It is not enough to focus on the management of disease through medication,” Dr. Boufford says. “That’s why health advocates will be trying to persuade UN officials during Wellness Week to pass resolutions that deal with road and transport design and construction and other potential causes of non-communicable diseases.”
