English is an excellent language to learn

whether it's for business

travel or personal

reasons

Here are some important ways to improve your spoken English

When you have time to speak

just try your best to practice

Don't wait until you "feel more

comfortable" speaking in English

so start speaking English today

You'll be surprised at

how quickly your language skills improve

Find a native English speaker who is willing to

spend some time speaking English with you-you may be able to offer them a language

exchange

where they spend 30 minutes speaking English with you and you spend 30

minutes speaking your native language with them

Even if you have a good knowledge of the grammar and vocabulary

native English speakers

may find it's very difficult to understand if you don't work on your pronunciation

Correct

clear pronunciation is necessary if you really want to improve your English

Listen closely to

how native English speakers pronounce certain words and sounds and do your best to copy

them

The wider your vocabulary and the more English phrases you learn

the easier speaking

English will become

Once you have learned a new word or phrase

you should make an

effort to use it in a sentence-this is the best way to keep it in mind

You should also start a

notebook of phrases that English speakers use all the time

Another great way to add some more English conversation into your weekly practice is to sign

up for a class of discussion group

Attending an English class is a great way to pay attention

to some of the more formal aspects of speaking English

A class will teach you the correct

way of speaking

Attending a discussion group is a more informal and relaxed way of learning English

where

the emphasis

(重点)

is more on communication and relationship building than on speaking

"correct" English

Kentucky Fried Chicken has filed a lawsuit

(提起诉讼)

because their social media accounts spread false information about its food

including that

its chickens have eight legs

The case comes as the Beijing government holds an activity to

clean up rumours

(谣言)

on social media

(媒体).

Internet marketers have been accused

(指控)

of trying to control online opinions of their customers by posting false information

about their competitors

In an announcement posted on its Chinese website

KFC said one of the best-known false

rumours was that chickens used by the company have six wings and eight legs

It is

requesting 1.5 million yuan and an official apology from each of three companies

It is also

asking for an immediate stop to their activities to hurt it by spreading rumours

The fried chicken chain is China's biggest restaurant operator and is a kind of fast food for

young people in China

It has more than 4

600 restaurants in the country

and on average

opens a new branch every day

KFC'S China chief executive officer

(行政长官),

Qu

Cuirong

said that it is difficult for companies to protect their brands

against

rumours because it is hard for them to collect evidence

government in recent years to purify

(净化)

the online environment have offered us much

more confidence

"

The companies are Shanxi Weilukuang Technology Company

Taiyuan Zero Point

Technology Company and Yingchenanzhi Success and Culture Communication in Shenzhen

south-east China

Calls to numbers listed for the companies either rang unanswered or were

authorities

Smoking is harmful

But as soon as you quit the habit

everything will be OK

right

Wrong

第3页,共14页

New research has found that even if you give up smoking

the damage it has done to your

genes

(基因)

will stay there for a much longer time

In the research

a team o US scientists

studied the blood of 16

000 people

Among them

some were smokers

some used to smoke

and the rest were non-smokers

Scientists compared their genes and found that more than 7

000 genes of smokers had changed--a number that is one-third of known human genes

According to NBC News

both heart disease and cancer are caused by genetic changes

Some

people may have had the changes when they were born

but most people get them in their

day-to-day lives while doing things like smoking

When you stop smoking

a lot of these genes will return to normal within five years

This means your body is trying to heal

(治愈)

itself of the harmful effects of smoking

But

the changes in some of the genes stay for longer

They can stay for as long as 30 years

It's

almost like leaving a footprint on wet cement

(水泥)

---- it will always be there

even when

you've walked away and when the cement becomes dry

Although the study results may make people unhappy

there is a bright side

the findings

could help scientists invent medicine to treat genetic damage caused by smoking or find ways

to tell which people have heart disease or cance risks

the brilliant Albert Einstein

and another person a food

Are people born intelligent or stupid

or is intelligence the result of where and how you live

(1)

We know

however

that just being born with a good mind is not enough

In some ways

the

mind is like a leg or an arm muscle

(2) Mental exercise is particularly important for young

children

Many child psychologists think that parents should play with their children more

often and give them problems to think about

(3) If

on the other hand

children are left alone

a great deal with nothing to do

they are more likely to become dull and unintelligent

(4) According to some psychologists

if parents are always telling a child that he or she is a

fool or an idiot

then the child is more likely to keep doing silly and foolish things

So it is

probably better for parents to say very positive

helpful

things to their children

such

as"That was a very clever thing you did

"or"

(5) "

A

A healthy body contributes to one's intelligence

B

Parents should also be careful with what they say to young children

The Dragon Boat Festival has history of over 2

000 years

There are many tales about their origin

The most popular is when the festival is celebrated in honor of Qu Yuan

Qu Yuan was very concerned about his country but was not understanding by the rulers

Feeling desperate

he jumped into the Miluo River on the 5th day of the 5th lunar month

278 BC

Before he died

the fishermen sailed their boats to look up for his body

People throw Zongzi into the water

hoping to prevent possible fish attack his body

That's because people later celebrate the festival through such activity as dragon boat ra

cing and eating zongzi on that special day
