17、o be read and kept long. BMy favorite book,The Secretby Rhonda Byrne, talks about a formula called “SFF” which stands for “stopping finding faults”. I used to be a critical person and tried to find faults. I guess I somehow inherited this character from my father. Actually, many good qualities of my

18、 father are worth admiring except this.My father is the person who constantly looks for mistakes in other people and he thinks no one is perfect in the world. His character created a negative atmosphere in my family. I was the same as my father, so I often felt angry, disappointed, depressed, and lo

19、nely in school.After I had read my favorite book I began to seek “good things” in other people. It has completely changed my life. Now I feel happier, I have more friends, I have more trust in people, and I realize everyone has their own strength! Another important lesson I got from this book is tha

20、t I should always behave myself in a positive manner. Lets admit that we sometimes complain about our situation. Thats not good. “Believe it or not, people dont like to listen to negative opinions.”One more valuable lesson I got from the book is that I should be a good listener. When I was younger,

21、I only wanted people to pay whole attention to my words so that I could show them how important I was. I was very proud and would show off my achievements in school without considering others feeling. I had very few friends and most people considered me as an “arrogant” person. Now, I find it mush e

A famous French humorist once said that this is because the English insist on behaving like children all their lives. Wherever you go in this country, you will see both children and grown-ups knocking

26、a ball about with a stick or something, as if in Britain men shall always remain boys and women girls! Still, it can never be bad to get exercise, can it?Taking all amateur（业余）and professional sports in Britain into consideration, there can be no doubt that football is at the top of the list. It is

27、called soccer in the United States. The game originated（起源于）in Britain and was played in the Middle Ages or even earlier, though as an organized game, or “association football”, it dates only from the beginning of the 19th century.The next is rugby, which is called “football” in the United States. I

28、t is a kind of football played by two teams of fifteen players than eleven. In rugby, an oval-shaped ball is used which can be handled as well as kicked. It is a pretty rough game.In summer, cricket is the most popular sport. In fact, it has sometimes been called the English national game. Most fore

29、igners find the game rather slow or even boring, but it enjoys great popularity among the British.Tennis rates high on the list, too. It was introduced into England from France in the 15th century, but it was from England that it spread to practically every country in the world.Table tennis, or “pin

30、g-pong”, surely is not played on a great scale as it is in China or Japan.

Paintings of Egyptians dating back over 4,000 years show both men and women painting their nails and wearing makeup. In 18th-century France, wealthy noblemen wore large wigs (假发) of long, wh

34、ite hair to make themselves attractive. Today, people continue to devote a lot of time and money to their appearance. There is at least one good reason for the desire to be attractive: beauty is power. Studies suggest that good-looking people make more money, get called on more often in class, and a

35、re regarded as friendlier. But what exactly is beauty? Its difficult to describe it clearly, and yet we know it when we see it. And our awareness of it may start at a very early age. In one set of studies, six-month-old babies were shown a series of photographs. The faces on the pictures had been ra

36、ted for attractiveness by a group of college students. In the studies, the babies spent more time looking at the attractive faces than the unattractive ones. The idea that even babies can judge appearance makes perfect sense to many researchers. In studies by psychologists, men consistently showed a

37、 preference for women with larger eyes, fuller lips, and a smaller nose and chin while women prefer men with large shoulders and a narrow waist. According to scientists, the mind unconsciously tells men and women that these traitsthe full lips, clear skin, strong shouldersequal health and genetic we

38、ll-being. Not everyone thinks the same way. What is considered attractive in one culture might not be in another. Look at most Western fashion magazines: the women on the pages are thin, but is this “perfect” body type for women worldwide? Scientists answer is no; what is considered beautiful is sub

39、jective and varies around the world. They found native peoples in southeast Peru preferred shapes regarded overweight in Western cultures. For better or worse, beauty plays a role in our lives. But it is extremely difficult to describe exactly what makes one person attractive to another. Although th

40、ere do seem to be certain physical traits considered universally appealing, it is also true that beauty does not always keep to a single, uniform standard. Beauty really is, as the saying goes, in the eye of the beholder (观看者). 32. Peoples ideas about beauty _. A. can be easily described B. are base

41、d upon strict criteria C. have existed since ancient times D. have little influence on a persons success 33. In Paragraph 3, the babies in the study _.
