Word for My 2023

Do you enjoy visiting a museum? Did you ever make a plan before a visit? Every museum must have something that attracts you. And there are many possible ways to enjoy yourself in a museum. 

Decide what museum you will visit. There are so many different kinds of museums and you first need to find that you like. It's easy for you to choose your favorite and start an enjoyable visit!

Do some research o. Every museum now has a website which allows you to look through the information about it. On the website, you may look for such things as:

The exhibits(展品)—See what is  show at the museum at all times, and what special exhibitions are held for a short time. 

Activities — See  there are talks, tours or special activities on the day when you visit. Many museums hold some activities that meet the interests of all age groups. 

Cost, food and storage— It's important to know how much the visit will . You have to decide whether or not you can eat there. You might also need to find out about transportation needs as well as storage for costs, bags etc.

Plan breaks into your visit. When you walk around, standing here and studying exhibits there you may become very tired. So it is important to take breaks. A break is a good c for you to think of what you have seen and what else you might want to do in the museum. 

Take a friend or two. museums is always a lot more fun when you are with someone. You can talk over what you're seeing. A friend also brings another way of thinking when you talk about the exhibits.

People in Europe are soon to have another choice when looking for meat at food stores or choosing a meal at a restaurant. Instead of the usual meat from an animal, they may soon be able to buy a kind made from plants and shaped by 3D printers. 

The Israeli company Redefine Meat makes the substitute (替代品) meat. It is called "New Meat". It looks and tastes like meat. It is shaped by the printer that creates real objects of different materials—not just paper. New Meat is already sold in Great Britain, Germany and the Netherlands. Some restaurants pay $40 per kilogram for New Meat.

Eshchar, a Redefine Meat founder and leader, says the food has all the qualities of real meat but is just made in a different way. 

Success is not guaranteed (保证) in the substitute meat market. However, another company that makes such products is Beyond Meat in the Unite States. Over the summer, Beyond Meat said it did not expect sales of its product in 2023 to reach the number it wanted. 

Meat made from plants are seen as better for animals and the environment. But according to some recent marketing surveys, people don't often buy substitute meat. That's because ____.

A: Hi, Frank! What are you busy doing these days?

B: Hi, Helen! 

A: Oh, what's it about?

B: 

A: Environment? Sounds serious. Tell me more about it. 

B: Um... It seems that we have two main problems. One is that the rivers are badly polluted. The

water is very dirty. 

A: 

B: Oh, the other is that the trees in the mountains are getting fewer and fewer. 

A: It's true. We should do something to make the rivers cleaner and the mountains greener.

B: You're right. And we should also plant more trees.

A: 

B: Why not? Welcome!

A: Thank you. 

① What is your earliest childhood memory? Adults seldom call back events much earlier than the year before entering school, just as children younger than three or four seldom remember any specific, personal experiences. 

② An explanation is suggested by psychologists (心理学家) for this "childhood amnesia"(童年失忆). Now Annette Simms, a psychologist of Riverdale University, offers a new explanation for it. According to Dr. Simms, children need to learn to use someone else's spoken description in order to turn their short-term, fast forgotten impressions (印象) into long-term memories. In other words, children have to talk about their experiences and hear others talk about them.

③ So why should personal memories depend so heavily on hearing them described? 

④ Dr. Simms says that the human mind organizes memories in that way. Children whose mothers talk with them about the day's activities before bedtime can remember more of the day's special event than those whose mothers don't. Talking about an event in this way helps a child to remember it.

⑤ "The key to creating this mental life story is language, " says Dr. Simms. "Children learn to talk about the past," she says. "Talking to others about their short-term memories of the past leads to the establishment (建立) of long-term memories. " The child learns that this "word-description" of an experience can then be stored in the memory and called back at any time. But a child's language skills are usually not ready for this until the age of three or four, so they have no way to remember the earliest of their experiences.

"That Tom is going to make a lot of trouble. He kept putting cotton into Martha's sack (麻袋)," Sambo told Legree that night.

"Then we'll have to give him a lesson. " said Legree.

Slowly the tired slaves (奴隶) came into the room for the weighing of the sacks. First Legree weighed Tom's sack, and it was enough. Martha's sack was next. The weight was enough, but Legree shouted at her.

"You lazy animal! This is not enough! Stay here and wait. " He finished weighing all the other sacks, and then turned to Tom.

"Come here," said Legree, "I want to give you a better job than picking cotton, and you can start tonight: take this woman and whip (鞭打) her — you know how. "

"I'm sorry, Master," said Tom. "I can't do it. "

Legree whipped Tom across his face and then hit him with his fists many times. 

"There!" he said. "Now will you tell me you can't do it ?"

"Yes, Master," said Tom, with blood running down his face. "I will work night and day, but I will never whip another person".

"I bought you, and you're mine, body and soul (灵魂). " he said, kicking Tom.

"My soul isn't yours! You can't buy it!"

"We'll see," said Legree, "Sambo, Quimbo, give this dog, a lesson. "

It was late at night, and Tom lay bleeding alone, among pieces of broken machinery. He heard a noise. 

"Who's there? Please, give me some water!"

It was Cassy. She helped him drink and then she cleaned his wounds and put something soft under his head. Tom felt better. 

—Adapted from Uncle Tom's Cabin

At a school soccer field in Rongjiang County, Guizhou, thousands of people, both villagers and tourists, are gathering to see a big event — the "Village Football Association (Village FA)".

It is an exciting and fun soccer competition happening in a village. The people who live there organized it, and it has become really popular online lately. The competition takes place every Friday to Sunday from May 13th to July 29th. There are 20 teams made up of 16 different ethnic groups(民族) taking part in. The players, who come from local villages, have different jobs like butchers, farmers, and building workers. Instead of getting trophies (奖杯) as prizes, they receive things like salted meat, red eggs, and even live animals. 

Yang Yajiang, the vice president of the soccer association in Rongjiang County, says, "____" Even though the players are not professionals (职业选手), they come together as a team and compete no matter what the result is.

Some of the people supporting the teams are in their 80s and don't even know the rules of the game. But they still show up to cheer for their village teams. This spirit of unity isn't just found in one village, but it's seen among people from all over the country. Can you imagine a scene where after a match, suddenly 50,000 supporters from different ethnic groups come together to sing a song called "Me and My Country"?

Village FA is also a special event for the locals to show their culture. During breaks between matches, there are colorful performances by people from different ethnic groups. They sing, dance, and even have fashion shows where they wear traditional costumes. 

Why did Chinese people have more than one name in ancient times?

In ancient China, people's names had three parts, their family name, given name and courtesy name. Take famous poet Li Bai for example. His family name, which came from his father's name, was Li. His given name was Bai, and his courtesy name was Taibai.

People used their given names when they were among family members. But in social life, they called each other by their courtesy names to show respect. This was mostly done among people of similar ages. If you were talking about yourself, or if your elders were talking about you, the given name would be used instead of the courtesy name. 

Men would get their courtesy names when they turned 20. It was a symbol of adulthood (成年礼). Women would get their courtesy names after getting married. 

One's courtesy name often had something to do with one's given name. For example, the name of Mencius was Meng Ke. His courtesy name was Ziyu. Both Ke and Ziyu mean "carriage (马车)". Zhuge Liang's given name was Liang, which means "bright". His courtesy name was Kongming, which means "very bright".

Reading the store guide before going shopping in a department store can help you save a lot of time. Here's a store guide that shows what is on each floor of a department store.

Long ago, an old teacher's last time came near. He called his son and said,"Son, I have spent my whole life educating 1 . At the moment I want to tell you something important. "

Listening to this, the son was looking at his father 2 . Just then his father said,"But before that, go and bring a piece of coal and a piece of sandalwood (檀香木) to me. "3 the son found this very strange, he did as his father asked.

He found a big piece of coal and held it in one hand. And then he broke off a piece of sandalwood from the tree with the other hand. After getting both things, he 4  to his father. 

His father asked him to drop both things 5 his hands right there. He did as his father asked and then wanted to6 his hands. However, his father stopped him and said, "Wait, son. Show your hands. See, this hand turned7 as you held coal in it. Even after you threw it away, soot (煤灰) still remains in your hand. Such is like the company of 8 people. It hurts to be with them and even if they are not there, you still face bad 9 . " Then looking at the other hand, the father said,"But being with good people is like holding this sandalwood piece. You get lots of knowledge from them and even 10 they leave, fragrance (芳香) of their good thoughts will always remain with you. "

Traveling is fun and it gets more 1  when we take a long trip for the first time, all alone. 

We had planned that I would visit my grandparents with my parents. But since 2  

unexpected job came up for my parents, I chose 3  alone. From then on I was nervous and excited about 4  the trip would go. 

5 the day of the trip, my mom packed my bags, prepared food for me and then 6 me a 30-minute lesson on being careful and staying away from 7 . She also told me that I should phone 8 at every station that I went through. Throughout the journey, I was not sleepy at all. I kept 9 my book, and didn't say much to anyone asking me questions.

I kept phoning my mom at every station. 10 , I reached my destination (目的地) after the three-hour journey. There, my grandparents were waiting to collect me. I was very happy to have completed my first trip alone and loved it.

Dear Jim,

"What if…?" thinking is anytime you try to guess the future outcome of an action you take. For example, "I want to ask for a pay raise but what if…?" Your mind then fills in the blank with many alternate scenarios, almost all of them negative.

It's a powerful combination of focusing on the negative and the unrealistic. It causes you to suffer through events that may not even happen as you try to predict the future and work out how you'll cope with all these possible（yet unlikely）scenarios. But the absolute worst thing about "what if…" thinking though, is that it tries to convince you it's helping. You tell yourself that you're just preparing yourself, you're protecting yourself. But "what if…" thinking rarely leads to taking practical, preventative actions. Instead, you torture yourself by imagining all sorts of terrible outcomes, all in the name of being "prepared", the idea of which is captured beautifully by this quote:"Do not be fooled by 'what if…' thinking! You are not a fortune teller. Even if you were, mentally rehearsing how you'll cope with a negative outcome has limited usefulness. You're much better off just coping with the situation once when it happens." By torturing yourself imagining all the possible bad things that could happen, you end up living through all these horrible possibilities that you don't have to.

Even if you do get it right, and one of the negative scenarios is the outcome, you're unlikely to remember your well-rehearsed comeback or safety strategy in the heat of the moment.

Another separate problem with "what if…?" thinking is that it makes you so fearful of all these potentially hideous outcomes that it stops you from actually living through the situation, if you can at all avoid it.

By stopping yourself from acting, not only do you cut off the potential benefits of actually asking, but you also cut off the opportunity to see that your predictions were wrong—because you don't test them out by entering the situation regardless. Unchallenged like this, "What if…" thinking seems like it actually protects you and seems even more "helpful" next time around.

Once you've decided on a course of action, "what if…" has got much louder and soon will stop you from taking action. I like to not give them an opportunity. Once you've made a decision, force your own hand: make the phone call straight away, enroll and pay for the course, make an appointment in your calendar, etc. before your fears and negativity even get a chance to get up off the couch.

A Way Out of Social Anxiety: Volunteering and Acts of Kindness

As a socially anxious introvert, I can attest（证明）to the benefits of serving others through volunteering in my community.

A volunteer job doesn't need to require stepping into a busy room full of 100 people at a school or hospital. This kind of work is much more suitable and agreeable for introverts.

When I help elders or people with disabilities who are more isolated and lonelier than I am, I feel my nervousness and self-consciousness disappear. My social awkwardness loses its grip on me when I'm focused on helping someone else rather than myself or my social performance. Unlike showing up at a job interview, business meeting, or speaking engagement, working as a volunteer with people in need takes the spotlight away from being measured or judged.

Social scientists have an apt name for stressful social situations where we need to perform and would likely be judged or evaluated. The "social-evaluative threat" is particularly threatening for people with social anxiety as stress hormones rapidly increase. Any time we are in evaluative situations where we are judged by others, we face this social-evaluative threat and endure a sudden rush of stress hormones that increase anxiety. Yet when we are in situations where we are offering casual acts of kindness or nurturing others we tend to feel less threatened or judged by others. Helping others and sharing simple acts of kindness does not pose such a social-evaluative threat, but instead, calms and soothes us. Neuroscientists have studied the warm glow of doing good that makes us feel good.

"Kindness may help socially anxious people," says Dr. Lynn Alden, a psychology professor at the University of British Columbia. She found that acts of kindness may help to counter the socially anxious person's fear of negative evaluation by promoting more positive perceptions and expectations of how other people will respond.

A. Some people are naturally reserved while others are rather outgoing.

B. In social anxiety disorder, fear and anxiety lead to avoidance which can disrupt our life.

C. Indeed, my own act of kindness has always been a sure bet to bring me out of my shell.

D. Instead, my volunteer service consists of quiet one-on-one visits with isolated older adults.

E. When I am giving my free time to help others, I feel truly liberated in my mission to serve.

F. High-performance events such as public speaking or job interviews can be really unbearable.

G. She and her colleagues conducted a study with 115 undergraduate students who had reported high levels of social anxiety.
