ing?The College Cafe has just that,and more.36
Catherine Murphy,a cafe worker in a green shirt and black hat,
makes sure that each customer gets exactly what they order.She goes
back and forth between machines to make the drinks.37 As the cus-
tomer grabs the drink from her hand.she smiles and says,"Hello,how is your day?"Even when the
line is getting longer,she doesn't let it get in the way of her genuine conversations.
Murphy gets up at a quarter to five and drives thirty minutes every day to get to work on time.
38 "I do so because I like to make coffee for the students.I know they need it in the morning,"
都
Murphy said.Being a mother and wife has helped her become the woman she is.She believes she is
here to serve.
One thing Murphy may not know is that her smile is contagious(有感染力)and can be the differ
ence in a student having a much better day than they were having before seeing her.Joanna Wright,
a senior political science major,loves coffee and goes to the cafe at least six days a week.39
"Catherine always has a huge smile on her face,which always puts me in a cheerful mood,"Wright
said.
"I enjoy working in the cafe,Murphy said.40 She has every intention of staying and con-

A.The cafe closes at 9 pm every day.
B.She has two children aged eight and four.
C.Sometimes she arrives early to serve the students early.
D.After finishing an order,she calls out the name on the cup.
E.Not only does this cafe serve up drinks,it also serves up smiles.

If you want to develop maximum credibility(可信性),is it better to be a hedgehog(刺猬)ora
fox?According to Isaiah Berlin,the hedgehog knows one thing very well,and the fox knows a lot of
things.
Is there a clear advantage of one style over the other?Hedgehog thinkers tend to answer yes.
35 And they are usually very credible in doing so.According to Jim Hart,the "hedgehog con-
cept"is one of the factors that lead companies to greatness.They focus on one thing and do it really
well.They figure out what they are good at.36 The hedgehog concept makes perfect sense for
companies.
81
37 Philip Tate has studied the track records of those folks on the Sunday talk shows who
make predictions about what will happen.He has found that hedgehogs are not only wrong more often
than foxes,but that they are less likely to recognise or admit that they are wrong when events do not
match their predictions.
The advantage that foxes have is that they are more likely to seek out new information from a
broader range of sources,and are comfortable with uncertainty and new information.38 They try
to include it in their viewpoint rather than to exclude it from their thinking.They also have a clearer
estimation of what they know and don't know.
So,which is better?The question can be answered in a foxy hedgehog style.39 The choice
between being a hedgehog or a fox is a false trade-off.The most effective way to go through life is to
try to be that rare mixture known as foxy hedgehog.
A.In other words.there are clear advantages for each.
B.They are more likely to remember people's mistakes.
C.Hence,they have the advantage of clarity and confidence.
D.But there can be a downside to concentration on one big thing.
E.However,hedgehogs remain open to others'reactions and inputs.
F.When something is contradictory to their view,they don't treat it as exceptional.
G.They come down squarely on one side or the other and fully support their position.

In the past few years,online learning has become a significant part of the university and college
experience.36 But are all online courses created equal?How can you be sure that digital learning
is right for you?37 We interviewed students and professors to get their advice about online cour-
ses.
The most obvious advantage of online learning is that you can study anywhere and anytime.38 "I think
a point that many people lose sight of is how easy it can be to fall behind schedule,says graduate
student Amanda Bindman.Before choosing to study online,consider whether you're a self-motivated
learner and if the material seems interesting enough to keep you going.
The tip that comes up most often is simple:build online courses into your weekly schedule,just
like what you would do with in-person courses.39 He noted that his online students usually end
up with lower grades.It is so easy to let an online course slide,but your grades will suffer as a result.
Be sure to schedule set times to watch your lectures,read materials and contribute to online discus-
sion boards.
40 A social connection is often a big part of learning.There are things you can do to ease this
problem.Jessica Pink,an undergraduate student,suggests taking online courses with a friend,so you
can motivate each other to stay on track.You can also find students on the class discussion board to
organize a study group,or schedule in-person meetings with your professor to discuss course con-
cepts.
A.But that doesn't mean there aren't deadlines.
B.Your motivation should be your main concern.
C.Do you know that online courses are also part of your education?
D.Professor Alex Davidson teaches the same course in person and online.
E.The chief complaint about online courses is that they lack human interaction.
F.If you take an online course,what can you do to ensure the best possible grade?
G.A survey found that 29 percent of college students registered for online courses.

What is moderation ()Basically,it means eating only as much food as your body needs.
You should feel satisfied at the end of a meal,but not too full.36 But it doesn't mean saying
goodbye to the foods you love.
Take your time.It's important to slow down and think about food as something nutritious rather
than just something to eat in between meetings.37 It actually takes a few minutes for your brain
to tell your body that it has had enough food,so eat slowly and stop eating before you feel full.
Eat with others whenever possible.Eating alone,especially in front of the TV or computer,of-
ten leads to mindless overeating.And be careful about the foods you keep at hand.It's more challeng-
ing to eat in moderation if you have unhealthy snacks at the ready,like cookies.38
Control emotional(eating.39 Many of us also turn to food to deal with unpleasant
emotions such as sadness,loneliness,or boredom.But by learning healthier ways to manage emo-
tions,you can regain control over the food you eat and your feelings.
40 A healthy breakfast can start your metabolism(新陈代谢),while eating small,healthy
meals keeps your energy up all day.Avoid eating late at night.Try to eat dinner earlier and fast for
14-16 hours until breakfast the next morning.Studies suggest that eating only when you're most ac-
tive and giving your digestive system a long break each day may help to regulate weight.
A.Eat properly throughout the day.
B.We don't always eat just to satisfy hunger.
C.Don't swallow a meal on the way to work.
D.Most of us need to double the amount we eat.
E.Instead,surround yourself with healthy choices.
F.For many of us,moderation means eating less than we do now.
G.That won't lead to cheating or giving up on your new eating plan.

Tricks To Becoming A More Patient Person
Here's a riddle:What do traffic jams,long lines and waiting for a vacation to start all have in
common?There's one answer:36.
In the Digital Age,we're used to having what we need immediately and right at our fingertips.
However,research suggests that if we practiced patience,we'd be a whole lot better off.Here are sev-
eral tricks.
●Practice gratitude(感激)
Thankfulness has a lot of benefits:Research shows it makes us happier,less stressed and even
more optimistic.37 ."Showing thankfulness can foster self-control,"said Ye Li,researcher at the
University of California.
83
●Make yourself wait
Instant gratification()may seem like the most "feel good"option at the time,but psychology
research suggests waiting for things actually makes us happier in the long run.And the only way for
us to get into the habit of waiting is to practice.38 Put off watching your favorite show until the
weekend or wait 10 extra minutes before going for that cake.You'll soon find that the more patience
you practice,the more you start to apply it to other,more annoying situations.
●39
So many of us have the belief that being comfortable is the only state we will tolerate,and when
we experience something outside of our comfort zone,we get impatient about the circumstances.You
should learn to say to yourself,40 You'll then gradually become more patient.
A.Find your causes
B.Start with small tasks
C.Accept the uncomfortable
D.All this adds up to a state of hurry
E.It can also help us practice more patience
F.This is merely uncomfortable,not intolerable
G.They're all situations where we could use a little extra patience

Personal Forgiveness
Taking responsibility for mistakes is a positive step,but don't beat yourself up about them.To
err()is human.36 You can use the following writing exercise to help you do this.
In a journal or on a piece of paper,put the heading"Personal strengths".37 Are you caring?
Creative?Generous?A good listener?Fun to be around?They don't have to be world-changing,just
aspects of your personality that you're proud of.
At the top of a second page,put the heading "Aets of kindness".On this one,list all the positive
things you've done for others.It might be the time when you helped a friend with their homework,
when you did the ironing without being asked,or when you baked cookies after the family had had a
紫
tiring day.38
You could ask a friend or family member to help add to your list.39 That way,you could ex-
change thoughts on what makes each of you special and the aspects of your personality that shine
through.In fact,don't wait until you've made a mistake to try this-it's a great way to boost self-
confidence at any time.
lt's something of a cliche(陈词滥调)that most people learn not from their successes but their
mistakes.The thing is,it's true.40 We're all changing and learning all the time and mistakes are
a positive way to develop and grow.
A.A little self-forgiveness also goes a long way.
B.Now list all the characteristics you like about yourself.
C.They might even like to have a go at doing the exercise.
D.It's just as important to show yourself some forgiveness.
E.It doesn't mean you have to ignore what's happened or forget it.
F.Whatever it is.no matter how small it might seem,write it down.
G.Whatever the mistake,remember it isn't a fixed aspect of your personality.

Seeking and accepting constructive feedback()is crucial to growth.I post my

The journey you're on won't follow a straight path.40 Push through,give it time and put in
the effort.You will harvest the rewards of an artistic life.
A.Get out of your comfort zone.
B.Make career plans and set goals.
C.Don't throw away your beginner art.
D.Share your work if you feel comfortable doing so.
E.You'll hit roadblocks,and you'll feel discouraged at times.

It's a joyful and stressful time of year in the United States for students and their families as they
make decisions about where to attend college.Families often turn to rankings systems to help make a
decision.35
When I talk to families as a scholar of higher education,they're often surprised that teaching ex-
cellence is not counted in rankings.36
Emerging research suggests that courses in lower-ranked universities,on average,scored higher
on teaching than courses in higher-ranked universities.37 The absence of teaching excellence
from the rankings is surprising given the link between high-quality teaching and student success.
Quality teaching is one of the most important predictors of a wide range of college outcomes.
Rankings,however,are only one reason why a low value is placed on teaching in higher educa-
tion.Administrators often don't view teaching excellence as a way to increase enrolment or
funding.38 Research shows that the more time instructors spend on teaching,the lower their
salary.What is the result?Many instructors continue to teach using traditional lectures,which lead
to lower success rates.
85
39 Nevertheless,not much will change until schools with high-quality teaching are rewarded
with more resources,higher rankings and increased enrolments.In the long term,universities,or-
ganisations that rank schools,and others should work to make teaching a valued,core part of the
mission.
What should students and their families do?They should give strong consideration to universities
where high-quality teaching is valued,even though the schools may be ranked lower.
A.Higher education has achieved its true potential.
B.Therefore,it's not highly valued in hiring or promotion.
C.Quality teaching has been an important reputation-building factor.
D.However,the rankings ignore a critical factor:the quality of teaching.
E.Efforts to improve teaching at the university level have recently emerged.
F.They're even more surprised at how teaching is undervalued by universities.
G.In fact.universities often shift emphasis from teaching to other ranking factors.

With gas prices rising and airport security lines snaking longer than ever,why not book your
next domestic vacation on a train?Compared to other alternatives,it's comfortable and relaxing.
Here is some advice on how to make a trip by rail as pleasant as possible.
Plan ahead.Most long-distance trains,especially the sleeping car accommodations.sell out very
quickly.1 But no matter when you travel,it's a good idea to make your reservations at least 90
days in advance.
Use a travel agent.Consider turning your travel plan over to a travel agent and letting him doub-
le-check all the details,make suggestions,and then handle the actual reservations.A good one can
sometimes find you discounted tickets.2 Then you won't have to walk through several cars on a
moving train three times a day for your meals.
Bring a blanket.When you're riding on trains,you won't be provided with a blanket for free,even
if your trip is an overnight one.3 In the summer in particular,the air conditioning can make them
quite cold.
Arrive early.Most trains operate just once a day and some run only three times a week,so miss-
ing yours can be a disaster.4 Note:The times listed on the schedules are departure times,not ar-
rival times.
Have fun.5 Read a book,knit,do a crossword puzzle,or simply watch the world unfold
outside the window.To calculate your speed as you do.divide 3.600(the number of seconds in an
hour)by the number of seconds it takes you to travel one mile (the distance between two mileposts).
If it takes the train 53 seconds to travel one mile,you're going 67.92 mph.
A.Train trips aren't for impatient types.
B.You'll have views from both sides of the train.
C.The temperature on rail cars is often hard to control.
D.That's particularly true during busy summer months.
E.You might have to wait longer than 24 hours to catch the next one.
F.Chances are the cost will be a lot less than the cost of one bedroom.
G.He may also book you in a sleeping car that's right next to the diner.

Writing an essay is a difficult process for most people.However,the process can be made easier
if you learn to practice three simple techniques.
16 When you are first trying to think of ideas for an essay,put your pen to your paper and
write nonstop for ten or fifteen minutes without letting your pen leave the paper.Stay loose and free.
17 Don't worry about grammar or spelling.Even though this technique won't work for everyone,
it helps many people get a good store of ideas to draw on.
The next technique is to write your draft rapidly without worrying about being perfect.18
Yet,by learning to live with imperfection,you will save yourself headaches and a wastepaper basket
full of crumpled()paper.Think of your first draft as a path cut out of the jungle-as part of an
exploration,not as a complete highway.
The third technique is to try printing out a triple-spaced(三倍行距)copy to allow space for revi-
sion.19 As a result,these writers never get in the habit of crossing out chunks()of their
draft and writing revisions in the blank space.After you have revised your draft until it is too messy to
work from anymore,you can enter your changes into your word processor.20 The resulting
blank space invites you to revise.
A.Make sure your handwriting is neat.
B.Let your pen follow the waves of thought.
C.The second draft of the essay should be better.
D.First of all,learn the technique of nonstop writing.
E.Too many writers try to get their drafts right the first time.
F.Many beginning writers don't leave enough space to revise.
G.Then you can print out a fresh draft,again setting your text on triple-space.

Before you open the book,make sure that you are comfortable.You need a seat which sup-

38 Look at the table of contents,the preface,the chapter heading,etc.This will help you
to decide whether you really need to read the whole book or only certain parts of it.Ten minutes
spent in this way could save you quite a lot of time in the long run.

Music has long been considered to be an enjoyable pastime for many people.35 The mental
health benefits from music can't be argued.Music could also be helping you with many other health
problems behind the scenes.
36 However,for the same reason,music can be very beneficial if one is in pain.By distracting
(the mind from the pain,music,people say,can lower stress and anxiety levels.This,of course,
can lead to less pain.
Many people enjoy relaxing music in the evening prior to going to bed.37 While the validity
of the idea is still being assessed,the lowered stress can even be tied back to blood pressure.Similarly,
according to researchers,listening to just 30 minutes of soft music every day may help with healthy
blood sugar levels,through the lowering of stress and anxiety.
When it comes to heart health,there is speculation()that it's not the style of music,but
rather the tempo that makes it so good for your heart health.In one European study,participants lis-
tened to music as the researchers monitored their heart rates and blood pressure.38 On the other
hand,when the music slowed,the participants'stress and anxiety levels became lower and the effects
on heart rates appeared to follow suit.
39 But there is a whole range of other health issues that turning up the radio could be benefi-

A.This feeling can also result in many other health problems.
B.Some experts say that music can be harmful if it is too loud.
C.This idea is a little off-the-wall but still has scientific backing.
D.They say it can play a big role in calming the brain enough to sleep.
E.The implications of music on overall well-being are really impressive.
F.It is also highly popular due to the individualized effects on stress and anxiety.
G.Interestingly,the more cheerful the music was,the faster their heart rates were.
