What can we learn about China Travel?
B
By high school,T. J. was the most famous one in his town. I met him for the first time at aweekend leadership election. When I showed up, the community leaders gave methis overview of the attending students: “We have all the students here today,from the student president to T. J. Ware, the boy with the longest arrestrecord in the history of town.”
At the start ofthe election, he was standing against the back wall. He didn’t really join thediscussion groups, or didn’t seem to have much to say. But slowly, theinteractive games drew him in. The ice melted when the groups started buildinga list of positive and negative things that had occurred at school that year.T. J. had some definite comments on those situations. All of a sudden he wasbeing treated like a leader. He knew something about poverty, hunger andhopelessness, and everyone was listening. By the end of the election, he hadjoined the Homeless Project team. The other students on the team elected himco-chairman of the team.
But when T. J.showed up at school on Monday morning, he arrived to a firestorm. A group ofteachers were protesting (抗议) to the school principalabout his being elected co-chairman. They reminded the principal, “He’llprobably steal half the food.”
Surprisingly, twoweeks later, T. J. and his friends led a group to collect food. They created aschool record: 2,854 cans of food in just two hours. It was enough to fillthe empty shelves in two neighborhood centers, and the food took care of needyfamilies in the area for 75 days. The local newspaper covered the event with afull-page article the next day. The event he led now collects 9,000 cans offood in one day, taking care of 70 percent of the need for food for one year.
Maybe you’veheard the saying, “A bird with a broken wing will never fly as high.” T. J. remindsus that a bird with a broken wing only needs mending. But once it has healed,it can fly higher than the rest.
What was T. J. famous for when the author first met him?

Li Ping, acollege student has been experiencing social awkwardness since her juniormiddle school years. Back then, she felt unease about going to the restroomalone. She even limited the amount of water she drank so she didn’t have to gothere often. “I feared that other students would think that I didn’t get alongwell with others if I was seen alone,” she said. Li is not the only sufferer ofwhat* s called “social anxiety”.
China Youth Dailyrecently did a survey among 1,544 people. Nearly half (44. 6 percent) of theparticipants admitted that they were afraid of being the center of attention.Up to 66.7 percent of them said they are more likely to be anxious duringface-to-face communications than in online conversations. But these feelingsare not necessarily anything to worry about. “There is ‘social anxiety’, andthere is ‘social anxiety disorder’ or ‘social phobia’. They are two completelydifferent things.” said Li Songwei, a psychological professor at TsinghuaUniversity.
According toThomas Rodebaugh, a psychology professor at Washington University in St Louis,US, almost everyone suffers from at least a little social anxiety. “Forexample, we may get it before speaking in public, or have a bad night’s sleepif there is going to be an important interview the next day. But when doessocial anxiety develop into a disorder? There are two simple questions you canask yourself if you’re concerned—‘How much does the anxietyaffect my life?’ and ‘Is it acceptable?’ If the condition becomes soproblematic and you refuse to go out at all and cannot live a normal life, youjust need to seek treatment.” he notes.
But for commonsocial anxiety, people all have their different coping strategies. “The way I employis reason plus reward,” said Wang Li, another once-sufferer. For example, shetells herself that there is no such thing as right or wrong when pushingyourself to speak publicly: there are only people who agree with you or not.And if she conquers her fear, she buys new shoes or goes to see a movie afterclass.

What can we infer from the text?
D
The catastrophicminor planet crash that wiped out the dinosaurs 66 million years ago may nothave been so destructive had it hit almost anywhere else on earth according toa new research by Japanese scientists Kunio Kaiho and Naga Oshima, whopublished their findings Thursday in the journal Scientific Reports. It meansdinosaurs could still rule the earth and humans may never have evolved at all.
The roughly sixmile (10km) wide planet created a crater (坑) more than 110 miles(176km) across when it smashed into our planet. The collision released morethan 1 billion times as much energy as the atomic bomb explosion whichdestroyed Hiroshima and Nagasaki at the close of World War Ⅱ.
More than 75percent of all land and sea animals, the most famous of which being dinosaurs,were wiped out as a result. Huge volumes of ash, soot and dust shot into theatmosphere, blocking as much as 80 percent of precious sunlight from reachingthe surface of the planet.
The pair believethe key ingredient in the extinction was the soot, which was produced when thecrash lighted rocks loaded with hydrocarbon molecules (碳氢化合物分子) such as oil. However,the amount of hydrocarbon in rocks varies widely depending on their location.With this in mind, the team set about analysing places on Earth where the rockshave a high hydrocarbon molecule content.
They found thatonly about 13 percent of the planet have such an environment, essentiallymeaning that the dinosaurs were unlucky when the minor planet hit in such ahydrocarbon rich area.
“The catastrophicchain of events could only have occurred if the minor planet had hit thehydrocarbon-rich areas occupying approximately 13 percent of the Earth’ssurface,” the scientists wrote in a university press release.
It’s a good thingfor humanity, however, or else we may never have evolved in the first place.

A recent analysis has shown that kids today can’t run as fast or long as their parents could. They are taking an advantage of an extra 90 seconds to run one mile. That may not seem like a lot, but it is a concern. So is childhood obesity, 37 .
But before we point the finger at poor physical education in schools, maybe we should be looking at ourselves. 38 ? If mom’s browsing Pinterest and dad’s on Facebook, who’s making sure the children are getting the exercise they need?
Of course, nobody wants their kid running about the neighborhood on their own, but that’s not an excuse to let them stay indoors gaming. Because given the choice, most kids would stay glued to their console (放计算机的柜子).
Health habits learned at a young age are more likely to stick. Not only that, but children need role-models. 39 . If time on line is more important to you than time outdoors, it will be for your kids, too.
Nobody’s saying it’s easy, because it isn’t. Not many people want to go for a run after work, especially this time of each year. 40 . But swimming, dance classes and the like are more fun for kids anyway. And you can track from your smartphone while you wait in the car, we suppose.
A. which has tobe a contributing factor
B. They will relyon their parents for this
C. which has beena great concern to schools
D. It’s cold andit’s dark and you’re probably tired
E. Are YOU makingexercise a necessity in your home
F. Are YOU makingsmartphones a necessity in your home
G. Isn’t it possible thatkids are sedentary (久坐不动的) because we are sedentary
