And today is all about enjoying it. Because what's better than finding something really great from days gone by?
It's so easy to forget things you have. If we don't use them every day, some things can be put away and stay there. And that's not just the things in your home – technology grows so quickly, new toys come out all the time, new books keep coming out. In the age of new information, we can have so many things easily. Today is all about remembering the things we sometimes leave behind.
We've learned to value what age can bring to things. Wines, for example, are more valuable and tastier as they grow older. It's certain that old things still have their uses, value or charm. People today will pay a pretty penny for stamps, toys, video games, board games,books, coins, and clothes of yesterday.
You can really get into the charm of old things by visiting a junk shop(旧货店). Another person's old stuff could be your new stuff! Or maybe now is a good day to clean up? Old stuff could become a great gift for someone else, or you could always send your old things to a charity shop. If you're free, you could turn your old clothes into new ones with just a little change.
Today could be a good day to visit your older families. You could ask your grandparents to tell you stories about family history, their childhood and their youth. Learn about what was going on in the world when they were growing up.
Most of all, remember that today's new stuff will one day be old stuff.
(1)、What is Old Stuff Day?A、A day to throw away old things. B、A day to follow new technology. C、A day to get together with families. D、A day to enjoy and reuse old things.(2)、From Paragraph 3, we know that ____.A、age brings people new things B、people love buying new things C、people always clean up old stuff D、old stuff is still valuable and useful(3)、Which of the following is a proper way to deal with old stuff?A、Breaking them into pieces. B、Sending them to charity shops. C、Forgetting them in some places. D、Turning them into waste things.(4)、The author's purpose in writing the text is to make people ____.A、realize value of old stuff B、explore new technology C、produce more old things D、remember family history25. 阅读理解Have you ever heard the phrase "You never get a second chance to make a first impression(印象)"? It may sound like an unusual piece of advice, but it is true – the first impression someone has of you when meeting you for the first time will probably influence how that person treats you or reacts to you in the future.
What is even more interesting is that the brain takes in all the information to create that first impression in about three seconds. When you meet someone for the first time, by the time you have stated your name or shaken hands, the other person has already formed an opinion about the kind of person you are.
So how do you make a good first impression? All things grown—ups tell you – such as being polite and being well—dressed are very important. However, the most important tool for making a good first impression is your face. Smiling, being responsive, and looking like you are happy will almost always leave a positive(积极的) impression on people, especially those who do not know you. Most people, generally speaking are ready to smile back when they are smiled at.
Furthermore, smiling and being in a positive mood helps you to know and get a better understanding of new things. This means that you can possibly be friendlier to people you do not know and be more creative and able to solve problems more quickly. So if you ever need a reason to be happy, think about the wonderful people you might meet – and impress – with a cheerful smile.
(1)、What does the underlined word "react" in Paragraph 1 probably mean in Chinese?A、回应 B、道歉 C、报告 D、建议(2)、Which paragraph show how soon others form opinions on you?A、Paragraph 1. B、Paragraph 2. C、Paragraph 3. D、Paragraph 4.(3)、What is the most important to leave good impressions?A、Shaking hands. B、Stating your name. C、Dressing nicely. D、Wearing a smile.(4)、What can be learned from the last paragraph?A、Friendliness helps solve problems. B、Being positive helps you find a way out. C、There are many reasons to be happy. D、Thinking of great people cheers you up.(5)、What would be the best title for the text?A、The First Impression Does Count B、Smiling Makes the First Impression C、Manners Leave Deep Impressions D、Impressions Decide Who You Are八、任务型阅读。阅读短文,并按要求完成问题。
