Most Americans don't like to get advice(忠告) from members of their family. They get advice from “strangers” . When they need advice, they don't usually ask people they know. Instead many of them write letters to newspapers and magazines which give advice on many different subjects including family problems, the use of language, health, cooking, child care, clothes, and even on how to buy a house or a car. Most newspapers regularly(定期地) print letters from readers with problems. Along with the letters there are answers written by people who are supposed (推測(cè)) to know how to solve such problems. Some of these writers are doctors; others are lawyers or educators. But two of the most famous writers of advice are women without special training (訓(xùn)練) for this kind of work. One of them answers letters written to “Dear Abby. ” The other is addressed as “Dear Ann Landers. ” Experience is their preparation for giving advice.
There is one writer who has not lived long enough to have much experience. She is a girl named Angel Gavaliere, who started writing advice for newspaper readers at the age of ten. Her advice to young readers now appears regularly in a column called DEAR ANGEL in the Philadelphia Bulletin.

When women sit together to watch a movie on TV, at the same time they usually talk about a lot of subjects, including children, men, careers and what’s happening in their lives. When groups of men and women watch a movie together, the men usually end up telling the women to shut up. Men can either talk or watch the screen---they can’t do both---and they don’t understand that women can. Besides(此外), women think that the point of all getting together is to have a good time and develop relationships--not just to sit there like couch potatoes staring (盯著) at the screen.
During the ad breaks, a man often asks a woman to explain the plot(the story that is told in a novel or play or movie etc.) and tell him where the relationship between the characters is going. He is unable, unlike women, to read the small body language signals that show how the characters are feeling emotionally(情緒上). Since women originally spent their days with the other women and children in the group, they developed the ability to communicate successfully because they want to keep relationships. For a woman, speech continues to have such a clear purpose: to build relationships and make friends. For men, to talk is to connect to the facts.
Men see the telephone as a communication tool for sending facts and information to other people, but a woman sees it as a way of keeping relationship. A woman can spend two weeks on vacation with her girlfriend and, when she returns home, telephone the same girlfriend and talk for another two hours.
There is no convincing(令人信服的)evidence that social conditioning, the fact that girls’ mothers talked them more, is the reason why girls talk more than boys. Psychiatrist Dr. Michael Lewis, author of Social Behaviour and Language Acquisition, conducted experiments that found mothers talked to and looked at baby girls more often than baby boys. Scientific evidence shows parents reply to the brain differences of their children. Since a girl’s brain is better organized to send and receive speech, we talk to them more. As a result, mothers who try to talk to their sons are usually pointed to receive only short complaints in reply.
【小題1】While watching TV with others, women usually talk a lot because they ___________.
| A．a(chǎn)re afraid of silence with their families and friends |
| B．can both talk and watch the screen at the same time |
| C．think they can have a good time and develop relationships |
| D．have to explain the plot and body language to their husbands |
| A．experience the happy time again |
| B．keep a close tie with her |
| C．recommend her a new wonderful place |
| D．remind her of something forgotten |
| A．Women’s brains are better organized for language and communication. |
| B．Women love to talk because they are more sociable than men. |
| C．Men do not like talking because they believe more in facts. |
| D．Social conditioning is not the reason why women love talking. |
| A．Women Are Socially Trained to Talk |
| B．Talking Keeps Relationships |
| C．Women Love to Talk |
| D．Men Talk Differently from Women |

Open today’s newspaper. What do you see? Ads! Look through a magazine. More Ads! Turn on TV, still more ads! Everywhere you look, someone has something to tell.Here are some ways ads get us to buy.
Some ads use famous people. Stars are paid to sell a product. Think about it. Do they really know about medicine? Do they know about soft drink? These people may be famous. But they may not know about what they are selling.
Some ads make you think you’re getting the word of an expert. They say, “Doctor said.” A man in a white coat comes on TV. He looks nice. “I use bright and white,” He says. This man looks like a doctor. But he is an actor. He has been paid to sell this product.
Does soap have anything to do with a pretty child? Not much. But ads may show their product with something nice such as the sun, the flowers and so on. Such an ad is about feelings rather than facts.
Ads are full of strong words, and words like “new” and “improved” have power. They can help a produce sell. The soap may be called “Spring Rain”. A car may be called “Tiger”. Strong words work on our feelings.
Some ads make promise. But can they keep them? No.
Some ads use our fear of being too late. “Buy now!” They say, “Selling ends soon.” Check to see if this is true. Don’t hurry. Take time to think.
All ads hope we will buy something, do something, or think in a certain way. Know what ads are doing. Ask questions to yourself. Don’t let their words and pictures fool you.

What do you think are the most important inventions of the past 2,000 years? The TV? The printing? The telephone? Or the computer? A report shows that these are not the only important inventions. Here are four other important ones.
Paper is one of the most important inventions. You can’t have printing without paper. In 105 AD, Cai Lun invented paper in China. Long before the printing and Internet, Cai Lun’s invention allowed us to write down information, stories and history.
One of the simplest (最簡(jiǎn)單) inventions to save life is the toilet. Before toilets, waste ran into the rivers from people’s houses. Illnesses were common (普通的) in big cities, and it was often difficult to find clean drinking water.
Animal food is another invention. Before the invention, most animals were killed every autumn because there was not enough food for them in the winter. After hay (干草) became a kind of common animal food, animals could live through the long winter.
Reading glasses is the fourth invention. People start getting far-sighted (遠(yuǎn)視) from the age of 45. Glasses mean that anyone can read, write and do “close work” after that age. Without glasses, the world would be difficult for the people above 45.
【小題1】Cai Lun’s invention of paper makes it possible to ______.
| A．have printing | B．feed animals |
| C．drink clean water | D．do “close work” |
| A．saving water | B．getting ill |
| C．living in big cities | D．finding clean water |
| A．It was very cold in winter. | B．They didn’t have enough food to eat. |
| C．They had no drinking water. | D．They died of illness. |
| A．a(chǎn)ll people need reading glasses |
| B．a(chǎn)nyone must do “close work” after 45 |
| C．reading glasses are useful |
| D．life is more difficult for the people under 45 |
