Carry a camera with you. Nowadays many journalists are trying to add more skills to their resume (简历). 12 Journalists are always taking pictures to put them in their articles.

Listen to what others have to say. Being in a group discussion is not just about saying what’s on your mind. It’s also about listening to other members in the group.

20 This gives you a chance to learn something new and expand your horizons. Sometimes, people may not express themselves as well as they want, or you simply may not hear all of what they say. It is fine to ask for further clarifications(澄清), particularly if you want to provide a different point.

(22-23高一下·广西河池·期末)What do Gladys, Ruby and Logan all have in common? 21 But how do storms get their names? Here’s everything you need to know.
22
There’s quite a reasonable explanation for naming a storm. It’s simply to make people more aware when severe weather is on the way, with the idea being you’ll hear the name and you’ll know serious wind, rain or snow is coming. 23
When is a storm named?
24 In weather-speak, named storms mean red warnings and have destructive power. These warnings are issued for things like rain, wind, snow, ice, fog and extreme heat. So scientists believe that naming storms helps raise awareness of the impacts of severe weather and ensures clarity(清晰) for the public when they need it most.
How are the names chosen?
The Met. Office (气象部门) usually asks the public to suggest possible names for storms, and a new list is published every year. 25 Bad news is if your name begins with Q, U, X, Y or Z, you’re never going to get a storm named after you. The practice is to avoid a conflict with US hurricane naming traditions. In the US, hurricanes are often given clear and simple names, alphabetically (按字母顺序的) as well.
A.What is a storm?
B.Why are storms named?
C.Well, they are all names of storms.
D.A name is given when a storm is expected to cause medium or high impacts.

26 As Mark Twain said, comparison is the death of joy. It will mostly contribute to making you feel more painful, because it produces a lot of bad emotions. Comparing yourself to others is pointless, because we all have our own unique paths to follow. 27 This will help you grow and constantly improve yourself.
You are afraid of change. Why are most people afraid of change? Mostly because we fear the unknown, and anything that threatens our serenity(平静) is seen as challenging. But it does not have to be this way. 28 It teaches us to adapt to situations we never knew we could. It helps us discover ourselves. Accepting change also helps us to be more adaptable in life. This will afford you more possibilities and opportunities in your life.
You are wasting time on things you cannot control. 29 The sooner you realize that fact, the closer you get to living the life you want. How do you stop wasting time on things that are out of your control? Start by finding out what is within your control, such as your attitude, goals and decisions. Then think about what you cannot control, such as other people’s values and behaviors. 30

When you think about people who have made the world a better place, you probably think of famous scientists or great leaders. 31 Ordinary people like you and me can also help a lot. An act of kindness can bring a smile to a person’s face even if only for a moment.
Give away your money. Choose charity that has meaning for you. For example, if you want to help hungry children, you can try to find an international organization that provides food for those in poor areas. 32

Help a stranger. Your small actions can brighten the day of others. Hold the door for someone whose hands are full. 33 Give your seat on the bus to an old man. The key is expecting nothing in return for your acts of kindness.
34 Show the people close to you how much you care about them. Tell them they mean a lot to you. Make a beautiful gift for a friend. Take your husband to his favourite fun place if he has had a hard week. Tell your children how much they mean to you.

Legend has it that whenever Ji made a promise, he would spare no effort to fulfill it. 62 There was a saying widely spread: It is better to have a promise from Ji Bu than to get hundreds of ounces of gold.
63 During the Qing Dynasty (1644-1911), Li Daquan, a successful businessman in Shanxi province, was visited by a friend who came up with a new idea. In ancient China, carrying a large quantity of cash was not only a heavy burden but could also put the owner in danger. His friend proposed that a draft (汇票) be issued to replace the real cash. This draft was not only a promise to pay, but also a claim that an amount of coin equals to the specified amount and the draft could be cashed everywhere. Li readily agreed and kept his word. The story soon got around, and Li’s honesty brought him a flood of customers and a booming business. 64 It is called the predecessor (前身) of the Chinese banking industry. His banking business eventually expanded into 35 branches across the country. Rishengchang has been preserved and turned into a museum now.

65.根据前文“In today’s China, the spirit of honesty is still well-respected. (在今天的中国,诚实的精神仍然备受推崇)”以及后文“Their stories are broadcast across the country to set good examples and promote the virtue of honesty.
