It seemed like an everyday moment, but now I realize that when he introduced himself to me, it was the beginning of a life-changing experience.

I met him at a summer  

  , and although I met hundreds of people every day, I became his  

  . We talked, like everyone else, about our  

  and hobbies. We were not 

   at all, but we really had a lot in common. By the end of the camp, we were  

 stories and laughs, and promised to  

  .

When I returned home, I  

   that I had lost the paper with his e-mail address on it. I looked through all my stuff (东西), but without  

  . One day, I thought to look him up on the online network that was set up for the campers.  

   I was online, an instant message suddenly appeared on the  

   . It was the boy who I had just tried to  

   a moment before.

     A series of very meaningful conversations  

   then. I don’t know  

, but for some reason we started to  

   our deepest feelings in  

   , and learned from each other’s pain and experiences. It was a very new  

   for me，and it was extremely beneficial to my heart and my soul. 

  I had found someone who was willing to  

   me without prejudice (偏见).

     I have only known him for three months, but the  

  in me is great．I love, I live, and I believe in my life. I  

  cry every night because of the  happiness inside me. I dearly hope that he has also benefited from our exchanges even though we are hundreds of miles apart and can only communicate by messaging.

Have you ever heard the phrase, “Love is blind”? If so, you are already   1   with a type of mistake in our attempts to understand others: halo effects. This type of mistake    2   to the fact that once we form an overall impression of somebody, it could have strong effects on our   3     of his personality.   4  ,  halo effects are both common and powerful. For example, most organizations contain one or more “superstars”--- people who have earned the reputation for being unusually   5    and capable. Once they have gained such a “halo”, everything they do receives good   6   . Ideas that would be regarded as just so-so if suggested by someone else are seen as    7   when proposed by these persons. And actions that might be considered risky if taken by others are seen as brave when carried out by these “chosen” men and women.

As you can see, halo effects carry high costs. They may lead some persons to have an   8     high opinion of their own worth, while making things  9   for others who are equally deserving. Further, by giving too much influence to persons who are not ready to receive it, and by preventing hidden talent from being   10   , they can harm organizations as well as individuals. Clearly, then, it is important to recognize the existence and impact of halo effects; only then can their harmful effects be avoided.

If you don’t want people to know too much about you, then you had better keep your fridge contents secret, according to a British market research document released last week.
Researchers peered (凝视) into the fridges of 400 people in Britain and compared the contents with the owners’ lifestyles. They claim to be able to classify the nation’s people by fridge contents.
They say those people can be separated into five categories：nutrition nerds (no social sense), food faddiest (whatever’s in style), martyr mums, fast food fanatics and restaurant regulars.
Nutrition nerds care much about what they put into their bodies. Their fridges are stocked with fruit, vegetables and healthy meat.
People in this category tend to be highly organized and usually work in law or accountancy. The vast majority is single, but if they have a partner, that person will be similar.
A fridge full of vitamins — enriched juices implies its owner works in media or fashion. They tend not to eat the foods they buy. Known as the food faddiest, they just want to be seen as purchasing the latest important things.
A fridge filled with everything from steak to frozen fish suggests the martyr mum. Her fridge tends to be stocked with every kind of product, except what she herself would want. This fridge hints at difficulty balancing family and work life.
Fast food fanatics always buy mineral water or soda pop. The nearest they will get to fresh fruit is tomato sauce. Their fridges hint at someone who works hard and plays hard, also, someone who is not into long term planning.
Finally, a fridge filled with nothing more than a bottle of white wine and some sparkling mineral water implies an owner who is single, lives in a big city and enjoys the finer things in life. The fridge is empty because this person regularly eats in restaurants.

Shopping for clothes is not the same experience for a man as it is for a woman. A man goes shopping   36   he needs something. His purpose is settled and decided in   37 . He knows what he wants, and his goal is to find it and　38　it. All men  39  walk into a shop and ask the shop assistant for what they want. If the shop has it in stock(库存), the deal can be done and    40   is completed in less than five minutes, with hardly any chat to everyone’s   41   .

For a man, slight problems may begin when the shop doesn’t have what he wants. In that  42   , the salesman tries to sell something else—he    43  the nearest to the article required. A good salesman brings out such a substitute(替代品)   44   , and he may say, “I know this jacket is not the style you want, sir, but would you like to try it for size? It   45   to be the color you mentioned.” Few men have   46    with this treatment, and the usual response is “This is the right color and may be the right size, but I shouldn’t be   47   my time and yours by trying it on.”

It is a tiresome process, but apparently a(n)   54    one. Most dress shops provide chairs for the waiting    55   .
