26、Saturday, March 24th

We have arrived in the hot, wet city of Bangkok. This is our first trip to Thailand(泰国). All the different smells make us want to try the food. We are going to eat something special for dinner tonight. The hotel we are staying in is cheap, and very clean. We plan to stay here for a few days, visit some places in the city, and then travel to Chiang Mai in the North.

Tuesday, March 27th

Bangkok is wonderful and surprising! The places are interesting. We visited the famous market which was on water, and saw a lot of fruits and vegetables. Everything is so colorful, and we have taken hundreds of photos already! Later today we will leave for Chiang Mai. We will take the train north, stay in Chiang Mai for two days, and then catch a bus to Chiang Rai.

Friday, March 30th

Our trip to Chiang Rai was long and boring. We visited a small village in the mountains. The village people here love the quiet life--no computers or phones. They are the kindest people I have ever met. They always smile and say “hello”. Kathy and I can only speak a few words of Thai, so smiling is the best way to show our kindness. I feel good here and hope to be able to come back next year.

27、This at Home!

Are you looking for a new pastime that will create a balance between physical activity and relaxation? Then yoga may be the perfect choice for you. Yoga can be practiced by people of all ages and levels of fitness. 【1】 It’s a great way to strengthen your muscles and become more flexible.

In the 1930s, Indian Sri Tirumali and K. Pattabhi developed one of the most popular forms of yoga practiced world-wide today. They worked together using an ancient Sansknt text called Yoga Korunta to create a set routine of yoga movements and breathing exercises. 【2】

Ashtanga is different from other forms of yoga. It is a very powerful form of aerobic(有氧的) exercise which creates deep heat in the body. 【3】 In other forms of yoga, however, the routine can change each time and the stretching exercises aren’t aerobic.

【4】 As well as making you stronger and more flexible, it can also help you to stay calm. By focusing on your breathing while doing physical exercise, you are able to get a balance between mind and body. In addition, yoga helps to make us healthier so we are less likely to get common illnesses like colds.

Furthermore, yoga encourages you to think about what you’re doing. Often you will close your eyes while doing certain movements. 【5】 After a few lessons you’ll stop looking at what the others around you are doing. You will stop comparing yourself and start focusing on yourself.

A．The result of their co-operation was ashtanga yoga.

B．It can also be done anywhere at any time when you are free.

C．This allows you to concentrate better and makes you less competitive.

D．Every time someone practices ashtanga, he or she does exactly the same movements.

E．Whatever kind of yoga you decide to choose, there will be a variety of long-term benefits.

F．If you’re interested in yoga, but cannot find a class near you, then it might be an excuse to travel.

G．Recently, it has become extremely common for beginners as well as advanced yoga students to go on yoga holidays.

28、   Lynn Colwell is a mixed-media artist in Redmond, Washington. In grade school, a teacher told her that she had no artistic talent and Lynn believed her. However, in 2015 when she retired, she hoped to have a new interest and began to take year-long online painting class.

"It blew me away," she says. She started painting striking portraits of women's faces, combined with short messages of hope almost every day. In five years, she's completed about 1,000 paintings.

Lynn gives her paintings away. She started with friends, but that only went so far. Then she read about a movement called Art Abandonment, which encourages artists to leave their art in public places for anyone to pick up. That gave her the idea of putting her work into the hands of strangers through Facebook.

Nearly every day, Lynn posts a painting on her Facebook page. The first person who responds saying they're interested in it has 24 hours to make a donation of $ 25 or more to their favorite nonprofit or an individual in need. Then the painting is theirs. Lynn doesn't' ask for proof(证明). She trusts that the people who want her paintings share her ideas.

Five years later, she's still amazed at the results. Her paintings have raised more than $ 57,000 for nonprofits such as animal rescue centers, homeless shelters as well as for people who have lost their jobs. Sometimes Lynn hears that a painting helped someone at the moment they needed it most. "That give me chills," she says.

To be a part of Lynn Colwell's art-for-a-cause effort, send her a friend request at facebook.com/lynncolwell. Then keep an eye out for a painting that speaks to you. Lynn personally approves each request, so she asks for your patience. Also, she spends most of her time in her art studio-there's painting to be done. "I wake up every day and can't wait to get started," she says.

【1】Why did Lynn take an online painting class?

A．Her teacher once praised her.

B．She desired to change her life.

C．She needed another hobby.

D．This kind of class charged little.

【2】What's the purpose of Art Abandonment?

A．To encourage artists to donate.

B．To make the public love paintings.

C．To tell strangers to be kind to others.

D．To improve the atmosphere of public places.

【3】How can a stranger get one of Lynn's paintings?

A．By getting familiar with Lynn.

B．By working voluntarily in a nonprofit.

C．By contacting Lynn on her Facebook page.

D．By donating at least $ 25 to someone in need.

【4】Which of the following words can best describe Lynn?

A．Narrow-minded.

B．Kind-hearted.

C．Far-sighted.

D．Selfish.

29、How to Build Self-Control

Study after study confirms that if we just find the way to strengthen our self-control, our lives will become so much better. We can achieve our goals much easier. 【1】 You can learn how to improve self-control over time with practice.

Find a healthy distraction (分心). You’ll find it harder to avoid your desire if you simply sit and focus on it. Instead, recognize the desire and actively try to distract yourself with something else. This can help distract your mind from the desire and give you the space to truly decide if you want to act on that desire. 【2】 For example, you can cut paper, knit, make wooden toys or even text a friend.

【3】 Besides momentary distractions, you can actively try to replace the behavior you want to control with another positive one. For example, if you’re trying to stop spending money, you can develop the habit of walking in a green space where you won’t even have the opportunity to shop. Or if you’re trying to control overeating, you can develop the habit of doing sports when the desire arises.

Try breathing deeply. This suggestion can come in handy if you are trying to quit smoking. If you want to smoke, don’t immediately give in to the cigarette. 【4】 Remind yourself that smoking is not a necessity. Take the five minutes of breathing to imagine the desire slowly disappearing every time you breathe.

Make a list of the habits or behaviors you want to control. If people in your life have made suggestions about your habits, take those suggestions into consideration. 【5】 So listen to your intuition (直觉) and honor how you feel as well as feedback you have received from people in your life. You have to be committed to making change and building self-control in order to truly change your behaviors.

A．Use your support system.

B．Develop positive habits.

C．And success will not be a distant dream anymore.

D．Remember that true change comes from the inside.

E．Start by increasing your confidence and improving your skills.

F．Sometimes doing something with your hands is helpful.

G．Instead, set your phone timer for five minutes, and focus on breathing deeply.
