English in the World
Some people say that the English language no longer belongs to the English, and it belongs to the world. It is estimated that the number of people who use English exceeds 750 million. Among these, about 350 million are native speakers, while the rest use it as an official language. If we add to this number the people who have acquired the language to some extent, the total is close to one billion. English plays an increasingly important role in the world as a medium for conducting international business and diplomacy, as well as in science and medicine, the Internet, air and sea communications, international sports events, radio and TV programs, pop songs and movies.

世界上的英語
有人說英語已不再屬于英國人了，它屬于全世界。據(jù)估計，使用英語的人超過七億五千萬，其中大約有三億五千萬是以英語為母語的人，而其余的人將英語作為官方語言使用。如果我們再加上已經(jīng)掌握英語到一定程度的人，這個總數(shù)將接近十億。
英語，作為進行國際業(yè)務(wù)和外交的工具，在世界上起著越來越重要的作用。它還在科學(xué)、醫(yī)藥、互聯(lián)網(wǎng)、空中及海洋通信、國際體育賽事、電臺電視節(jié)目、流行歌曲及電影中發(fā)揮著越來越重要的作用。
Managing Your Emotions
What makes me angry? Mostly, I hate when someone tries to make someone else feel bad. I have to admit that once, when I was really angry, I actually called names. I regretted doing this afterwards, but not full heartedly because I think I was provoked in that situation.
The most positive way of dealing with anger is talking about the problem. I talk to someone who listens, or I'll write my thoughts down on paper. Learning how to deal with anger as you're growing up is so important. When you're younger, you might yell, or cry when you're angry, but as you get older, you're expected to handle your emotions much better.
Learning to control your emotion now will prevent you from doing something that you'll regret later on in life!
emotion 情緒 manage 控制，操縱，管理 admit 承認
full heartedly 全心全意地 provoke 激怒 prevent 預(yù)防，防止
控制你的情緒
什么事會讓我憤怒呢?通常情況下，當有人試圖使別人覺得不舒服時，我會非常憤怒。我不得不承認，有一次，在我實在很生氣的時候，我確實罵了人。過后，我很后悔那么做，但我不認為全是我的錯，因為我覺得在那種情況下，我是被激怒了。
解決憤怒的最積極的方法是把問題說出來。我說給愿意聽的人，或者把我的想法寫在紙上。在你成長的過程中，學(xué)會處理憤怒是非常重要的。小時候，你生氣的時候可以大喊大叫或者哭鬧，但長大后，你被期望能更好地控制情緒。
現(xiàn)在就學(xué)著控制情緒能讓你避免做一些可能使你以后遺憾一生的事情。
The Dog and His Shadow
It happened that a dog had some meat that he wanted to eat at home. On his way home he met a river. As he looked down, he saw his shadow in the water.
"Just look!"said he to himself. "That dog down there has some meat, too. If I could get it away from him, I would really eat well tonight!"
With this thought, he made a snap at the other dog's meat. And as he did, his own meat fell into the water. So then he had nothing at all.
Then he saw that the other dog had lost his meat, too. "That is as it should be!?thought he. "For I saw him trying to take my meat away from me."
By wanting to have everything, he has lost everything he had!

他就什么都沒有了。
然后，他看到另一只狗的肉也沒了。“活該!”他想，“因為我看到他想從我這里搶走

A Bus Ride
One day I was on a bus. I found an elderly woman standing in front of me. She had a big bag in her hand. "It's a virtue for a young person to help the old,"I said to myself. When I was standing up to give my seat to the old lady, a young foreigner got up quickly saying, "Please sit down."The old lady thanked him and sat down. She looked very happy. I was a little embarrassed because I was sitting in the middle of the bus. Suddenly a pregnant woman got onto the bus. I quickly stood up to give up my seat to her. The foreigner smiled at me. He said that he was an Australian, and was a student studying Chinese culture in China.

A Thrilling Ride
Bill and Jane were coasting on a hill. Down the hill went the sled. Bill steered. Jane held on tightly. The coasters on the hill watched them. Past trees they whizzed. Jane yelled, "Stop the sled! Stop the sled!?but Bill could not stop it.
Suddenly Jane had a feeling that she was a bird in flight. Was she dreaming?
She landed in a big pile of snow. Where was Bill? He must have gone all the way down the long slide to the end of the hill. Now, Bill came in sight
plodding up the hill. Jane laughed as she called to him. They were so glad to be together. The coasters cheered to see them safe. They went home to tell Mother what a thrilling ride they had had.

The Eagle and the Raven
An eagle was trying to break open a nut in his beak when a raven landed on a branch beside him. The raven eyed the nut hopefully, "You'll never break it like that,"he said. "If I were you I would fly up in the sky as high as I could, then drop the nut onto the rocks. It's the only way you'll get at the kernel."
The eagle flew up into the sky, then let the nut fall down, down, down to the ground. The raven hopped quickly from his branch and seized the nut in his beak. By the time the eagle had found his way back to the right place, all that was left was a broken piece of shell.
