Surprising Ways in Which Your Friends Influence You

The company you keep says a lot about you. Friends have a big influence over how you feel, think and behave. 1.

1. Strong-willed friends increase self-control

If you struggle to resist temptation（誘惑), surrounding yourself with people who possess a high degree of self-discipline （自律）can help

2. Whether you want to do exercise at the gym, or you’re considering reducing this month’s budget, spending time with a disciplined friend could help you maintain healthy habits.

2. More friendships, more problems

Too many social media connections can increase your stress level. 3. A report says that more Facebook friends mean more stress. Researchers linked a great number of social media connections to increased anxiety about people.

3. 4.

Close friends could be the secret to longevity(長(zhǎng)壽). When older adults have close friends, they’re likely to live longer. Other studies have shown that having friends lowers the risk of disease by reducing blood pressure and heart rate. So while it may be tempting to think that friends are sometimes more trouble than they’re worth, clearly, having close friends can be one of the best things you can do for your health.

4. Friends can be either a good influence or a bad influence

Friends can greatly-influence your choices. A study has found that friends often provide one another with moral support to resist a temptation. 5. Researchers discovered that when it came to resisting temptations – like eating chocolate – sometimes friends were more likely to become partners in crime as they decided to indulge (放縱)together

A. Since self-control is vital to reaching long- term goals, befriending people with willpower could be the secret to success

B. Lasting friendships encourage more birthdays

C. Close friends will bring more happiness

D. Here are four reasons why you should be careful about who you surround yourself with

E. The larger your social circle is, the more happiness you have.

Today it is common to see people who walk about with colored wires hanging from their ears wherever they go. They move about in their personal bubbles, sometimes unaware of what’s happening around them. 1. . Outside life is shut out. So are you one of “them”?

For me, walking around in my own personal bubble is perfect. 2. What’s even better, wearing earphones seems to give a signal to people which says: “I’m not available for chatting at the moment!”

Suppose you’re at work and about to make an incredible breakthrough, but a colleague suddenly turns up. At this precise moment, the slightest disturbance would break your concentration. 3. Once again, those wires hanging from your ears would be sure to give that “Go away!” signal.

4. It’s probably part of the growing up stage when they just want to ignore their whole family. While their mothers give them lectures about why they should do their homework, they can just turn up the volume(聲音) on their MP3 player, smile, and say “Yes, Mum.” Problem solved.

Pretty soon, not only will we have pretty colored wires hanging from our ears—but also our brains will be directly plugged into some new high-tech instrument. We’ll be in a virtual(虛擬) world, communicating with everyone else, or choosing not to, as we like. In this world, we will all be permanently plugged in. 5. And they are changing our social habits along the way.

In the end, there is a thin line between using technology as a tool for making life better and being a slave to it! It’s so strange—suddenly, I don’t feel like wearing my earphones any more!

A. Listening to music through earphones is the perfect way to ignore such interruptions.

B. I also have wires hanging from my ears.

C. They walk around in their own spaces, with their personal “digital noise reduction systems.”

D. I don’t have to deal with the noise from the environment.

E. After all, I am listening to my favorite music and would rather not be disturbed.

F. Our instruments are changing quickly.

G. In the home situation, teenagers love these wires.

If a business wants to sell its products internationally, it had better do some market research first. This is a lesson that some large American corporations have learned the hard way.

What’s in the name?

Sometimes the problem is the name. When General Motors introduced its Chevy Nova into Latin America, it overlooked the fact that Nova in Spanish means “It doesn’t go”. Sure enough , the Chevy Nova never went anywhere in Latin America.

Translation problems

Sometimes it is the slogan that doesn’t work. No company knows this better than Pepsi-Cola, with its “Come alive with Pepsi!” campaign. The campaign was so successful in the United States , Pepsi translated its slogan literally for its international campaign. As it turned out , the translations weren’t quite right. Pepsi was begging Germans to “Come out of the grave(墳?zāi)?” and telling the Chinese that “Pepsi brings your ancestors(老祖宗) back from the grave.”

A picture’s worth a thousand words

Other times, the problem involves packaging. A picture of a smiling baby has helped sell countless jars of Gerber baby food. When Gerber started selling baby food in Africa, they used the same packaging as in the US, with the smiling baby on the label. Later they learned that in African countries , the picture on the jar shows what the jar has in it, for many people there can’t read.

Twist of fate

Even the culture and religious factors and pure coincidence can be involved . Thorn McAn shoes have a Thorn McAn “signature” inside. To people in Bangladesh, which is a Muslim country , this signature looked like Arabic script for the word Allah. In that country , feet are considered unclean, and Muslims felt the company was offending God’s name by having people walk on it.

1.From the text we learned that _________.

A. Chevy Nova was brought in Latin America

B. General Motors did the best market research of all companies

C. Pepsi still sold well in China owing to the translation problems

D. the “Come alive with Pepsi” campaign worked well in the US

2.What was “Gerber’s problem”?

A. A translation problem

B. Cultural factor

C. Religious factor

D. The picture on the jar

3.For what reason were Thorn McAn shoes turned down in Bangladesh?

A. They are not designed attractively

B. Their advertisements are not persuasive

C. A signature looking like the word Allah was in the shoes

D. Problem for Thorn McAn was the company’s name

4.What does the text mainly tell us?

A. Lessons from some large corporations.

B. How to make use of advertisements

C. The importance of market research

D. The importance of packaging

It is good to see that today more people have realized the importance exercising and are playing sports regular. But the problem is that there are not enough sports facilities to meet the public growing demand. I love playing basketball and often play with my friends on weekends. Therefore, it is difficult to rent a basketball field and possible to find a free one. It seems that all courts in the city were always full. Weather permitted, we can play in outdoors. But on rainy days or in winter we have to turn to indoor courts. There are not much in my city, and the charge is high. The government should build more public sports facilities, so easier access will encourage more people participate in sports.
