Joan has sweaty palms when she enters her math class. Her heart beats faster and faster as she moves toward her seat She remembers that she is getting back her chapter test paper today, and she knows she did not do as well as she should have. She studied hard for a week before the test, but her mind went blank on some of the questions. She remembers feeling the same way in elementary school in Mrs. Smith’s class. Mrs. Smith always told her, “You’re not trying hard enough. That’s what your problem is.” Joan looks at other students sitting calmly in their seats. She feels helpless and wonders why. What Joan does not know is that she is suffering from the symptoms of math anxiety.

Crying has also served other social purposes. Rousseau wrote in his “Confessions” that while he considered tears the most eloquent testimony（有力证据）of love, he also just liked to cry over nothing. As the story of the wrapped onion suggests, crying can be used to manipulate（影响）the emotions of others. Notions of manipulative crying endure（持续）to this ay. “When a woman cries,” a writer named Angela Epstein declared in September, in an article in The Daily Mail, “she’s on her way to getting what she wants.” 

Importantly, the Hindu （印度教) and Buddhist influences from India were not imposed by conquest or foreign domination (管辖). The influence was more apparent than real. Beneath the surface, the Indian religious symbols and rites were freely adapted to express the animist (泛神论) beliefs and ancestor worship of Austronesian (南太平洋岛屿) culture. Outside the nobility, life went on for the general population much as it had for thousands of years. The Sanskrit (梵文) script, for instance, does not appear to have been applied as an aid for commerce. With the notable exception of Bali, the Indian caste system was not imported. The social organization continued to follow the traditional kinship system of Austronesian society.

         The tragic hero is typically on top of the wheel of fortune, half-way between human society on the ground and something greater in the sky. Prometheus, Adam, and Christ hang between heaven and earth, between a world of paradisal (天堂似的) freedom and a world of bondage. Tragic heroes are so much the highest points in their human landscape that they seem the inevitable conductors of the power about them, great trees more likely to be struck by lightning than a clump of grass. Conductors may of course be instruments as well as victims of the divine lightning: Milton’s Samson destroys the Philistine temple with himself, and Hamlet nearly exterminates (消灭)the Danish court in his own fall.

    From the moment Professor Sy Kee entered the class, we knew he would be dynamic and interesting. He walked in briskly; greeted the class in a clear, magnetic voice; and made us all feel comfortable. Professor Sally Forth is also an example of a good teacher. Her lectures are always carefully prepared, yet she affords every student an opportunity to join in class discussion. Even when a few students try to dominate the discussion, she politely, yet firmly, invites comments from even the most reluctant. But perhaps the most outstanding example of a good teacher is Dr. Frank N. Stein, who is always ready to meet with any of his students, and even goes as far as giving us his home phone number in case we have any problems with the assignments. These teachers, and others like them, are readily recognizable as good teachers.

    While some adults decide to give up smoking, many teenagers begin to smoke cigarettes. They think smoking can help them to be more manly or fresh-minded. However, smoking is harmful to the smokers themselves. If you smoke, the cigarette can make your heart beat faster, shoot your blood pressure up, replace oxygen in your blood with carbon monoxide (一氧化碳) and leave cancer-causing substances in your body. According to a recent WHO report, 95% of those who suffer from lung cancer are smokers. As for heart disease, the risk of death is 2 to 3 times as great in smokers as in non-smokers. Smoking also brings great harm to the non-smokers in public places. If someone smokes in the waiting room of a railway station, twenty or even more people around him will be affected by the harmful substances carried in the smoke. We should completely ban smoking in public places.

We are on our way to becoming a cashless,  checkless society, a trend that began with the credit card. Now some banks are offering  “debit cards” instead of credit  cards. The costs  of  purchases made  with  these  cards  are  deducted  from  the  holder’s  bank  account  instead  of  being  added  to  a monthly bill. And checking accounts, which are mainly used for paying bills, are going electronic. Now some  people  can  make  computer transactions  over their  pushbutton  phones to  pay bills by transferring  money  from  their  account  to  the  account  of  whomever  they  owe. Soon  we  may  be able to conduct most of our business without signing a check or actually seeing the money we earn and spend.

Now let’s talk about how the human mind works. Think about the last movie you saw, for example. If you’re like most people, you can probably remember exactly how it began and exactly how it ended. You know what happened in the middle, of course, but those details aren't as clear as the details of the beginning and the end. This is just the nature of the learning process. Simply because of the way the human mind works, people lend to remember most what comes first and what comes last. Reading works the same way. If you break up a reading task into several sections, there are more starting and stopping points — more beginnings and endings to remember. There will be less material in the middle to be forgotten.
