   “OK. You can put your tongue back now,” the doctor said. “It's clear what's wrong with you. You need more exercise. ”

   “But, doctor,” the man said,” I don't think…”

    “Don't tell me what you think,” the doctor said. “I am the doctor,　not you. I know what you need. I see　hundreds of people like you. None of them get any exercise. They sit in offices all day and in front of the TV　in the evening. What you need is to walk quickly for at least 20 minutes a day. ”

   “Doctor, you don't understand,”　the patient said. “I…”

   “I don't want to hear any excuses,”　the doctor said. “You must find time for exercise. If you　don't,　you will get fat and have health problems when you are older. ”

“But I walk every day,”　the patient said.

    “Ｏh,　yes,　and I know what kind of walking that is. You walk a few feet to the train station　from your house,　a few more feet from the station to your office,　and a few more feet from your　office to a restaurant for lunch and back. That is not real walking. I'm talking about a walk in the　park for twenty minutes every day. ”

“Ｗill you listen to me, doctor!” the patient shouted, getting angry with his doctor who thought he knew everything. “I'm a mailman,” the patient went on, “and I walk for seven hours every day! “For a moment the doctor was silent, then he said quietly , “Put your tongue out again, will you?”

One of sweetest memories as a child is of going down to the river and sitting comfortably on the bank. There I would enjoy the peace and quiet, watch the water rush downstream and listen to songs of birds. I would also watch the bamboo trees bend under the pressure from the wind and watch them return gracefully to their original state after the wind had died down.
When I think about the bamboo tree’s ability to bend and move back, the word “resilience” comes to my mind. When it is used for a person, this word means the ability to readily recover(恢復) from shock, sadness or any other suffering. Have you ever felt like you were going to snap? Have you ever felt like you were at your breaking point? Thankfully, you have survived to talk about it.
Life is a mixture(混合) of good times and bad times, happy moments and unhappy moments. The next time you are experiencing one of those bad times or unhappy moments that take you close to your breaking point, bend, but don’t break. Try your best not to let the situation get the best of you.
An amount of hope will take you through the unpleasant suffering. With hope for a better tomorrow or a better situation, things may not be as bad as they seem. The unpleasant suffering may be easier to deal with if the end result is worth having.
If things get tough and you are at your breaking point, show resilience. Like the bamboo trees, bend, but don’t break!
【小題1】What does the word “snap” in the second paragraph most probably mean?

    If you are asked to chair a meeting, remember the following six golden rules for meeting management.

    Always start the meeting on time. If you begin on time, group members who show up late will realize the value of time. Beginning on time shows skill as an effective time manager and sets an example for others to follow.

  Select a note-taker. You may need to refer back to something that was discussed during the meeting at a later date. Good record-keeping is a sign of a good meeting manager as well.    

  Learn to listen. So many times we think about what we are going to say and, in the process, miss important points that other group members may be contributing （做貢獻）. Additionally, we often hear only what we want to hear, instead of really listening to other people. Meetings with effective listening are successful meetings.

  Keep the discussion on track（軌道）. Many times an important topic can get sidetracked in a meeting, especially when everyone has a different opinion about the topic. If an unexpected conflict（沖突） develops once the meeting is in progress, either ask a special group to look into the problem, or ask members involved in the conflict to meet with you after the meeting. Doing so will help keep the discussion on track and reduce the chances of wasting group members’ valuable time.

  Give everyone an opportunity to be heard. Some people like to control meetings, while others wait to be asked their opinions. As the leader of the meeting, you need to keep an open mind and make sure everyone feels welcome to contribute and express ideas without criticism.

    End on time. If you said the meeting would last no longer than one hour, make sure the meeting lasts for only one hour. Running late with a meeting makes members late for other appointments, increases the chances that the members will mentally leave the meeting and reduces your reliability as an effective meeting manager.
