   I was a very determined 16yearold. One day I woke up and realized I wasn't famous. I decided to do
something about it. I would get my name published in the Guinness Book of World Records.
   Having made this decision, I needed to think of something I could do well. First, I thought I could tie
my arm around my back and become "the person who swam the furthest with only one arm". But as
soon as I got in the water I sank.
   I knew I liked cookies, so I stuffed (塞进) 16 in my mouth and tried to be "the person who put the
most cookies in his mouth". But when cookie 17 went in, I got sick.
   I realized that I wasn't really good at anything. Then it hit me! I ran to the bathroom and filled up the
tub with water. I had decided to be "the person who took the world's longest bath". It was perfect
because all I had to do was sit there.
   I entered the tub at 5 o'clock on a Friday evening. The first three hours went great. I drank soda and
ate potato chips. Being in the water so long wrinkled my hands and feet and made me look like I was
80. But I was determined.
   At 8:45 my brother shouted through the bathroom door that the record for the longest bath was more
than a month and that there was also a record for most rattlesnakes with a human in a bathtub.
   Feeling rejected,_I got out. Maybe I'll never be in the Guinness book of World Records. But that's
OK. I am still special. Besides, I have more important things to do than sit in a bathtub for a month!

     In order to be a success in the American business world, you must get along with people. You must
learn to behave yourself in such a way that you earn the affection and respect of others. As we have
already pointed out, Americans mix business and pleasure. Therefore, learning how to chat informally
(非正式地)can be a help with your American business contracts. Americans like to talk about a number
of different topics-sports, politics, cars, popular movies, television shows and personal interests.
     Many large American cities have sports teams. If you are working with Americans in the United
States, it would be a good idea to find out about the local sports teams so that you can join in the almost
inevitable discussions about "What our team will do this year." Politics can be a sensitive topic unless
everyone is of the same mind politically. Limit your discussions to asking questions of your friends. Most
Americans are car owners and some are even obsessive(着迷的)about the subject. You can contribute
to the discussion by talking about cars you have owned or by sharing information you have had in
automotive magazines. Americans watch television almost every night and attend movies regularly, so
naturally TV programs and the latest movies become topics for discussions.
     If you are unable to watch American television or attend American movies, reading the entertainment
section of such magazines as Time and Newsweek will keep you up to date on what is popular in
America.

     Walking is a great way to get in shape without breaking the bank (it's free and you do it every day).
It benefits people physically, psychologically and socially. Here are how:
    Keeps You in Good Health
     In terms of health, walking is the key to managing weight, controlling blood pressure, and reducing the
risk of a stroke, breast cancer, and many other illnesses. A quick and energetic daily walk lengthens your
life, decreases the risk of disappointment and keeps up your mood and sense of wellbeing.
    Keeps You Mentally Refreshed
    From a psychological viewpoint, walking offers an opportunity to clarify thoughts, to solve problems
and to reduce stress. If you take a walk that is relaxing and peaceful, walking can also become a form of
meditation(冥想).
     Allows for Social Relationship
     Walking regularly with someone else enables a friendship to develop as the pair of you exercise.You
can also schedule regular walk "dates" with your partner and use the time to discuss questions without
being disturbed.
     Lets You See the World Around You
     Also, the best way to explore some of the world's great cities-such as New York, London, Paris and
Rome-is on foot. Walking motivates the senses and enables you to enjoy a rich life around you.
Wordsworth, who is believed to have travelled around the world seven times during his lifetime, always
delighted in the truth that "going for a walk is an invitation for surprise".
    Here are some tips to get going:
    Get a walking partner and meet each week at a set time.
    Get a dog and you'll have a constant walking companion.
    Choose a spot that is charming but accessible.
   Start with a soft walk, then increase the pace and distance.
   Include some hills and stairs.
    Use an umbrella if it rains: the worst that can happen is that you get wet!
