It was my mothers idea. She wanted me to “make something” of myself, and decided I had better start young if I was to have any chance of keeping up with the competition.With my load of magazines I headed toward Belleville Avenue. The crowds were there. There were two gas stations on the corner of Belleville and Union. For several hours I made myself highly visible, making sure everyone could see me and the heavy black letters on the bag that said THE SATURDAY EVENING POST. When it was suppertime, I walked back home.“ How many did you sell, my boy?” my mother asked.“ None.”“ Where did you go?”“ The corner of Belleville and Union Avenues.”“ What did you do?”“ Stood on the corner waiting for somebody to buy a Saturday Evening Post.”“ You just stood there?”“ Didnt sell a single one.”“ My God, Russell!”Uncle Allen put in, “ Well, Ive decided to take the Post.” I handed him a copy and he paid me a nickel. It was the first nickel I earned.Afterwards my mother taught me how to be a salesman. I would have to ring doorbells, address adults with self-confidence, and persuade them by saying that no one, no matter how poor, could afford to be without the Saturday Evening Post in the home.One day, I told my mother Id changed my mind. I didnt want to make a success in the magazine business.“If you think you can change your mind like this,” she replied, “ youll become a good-for-nothing.” She insisted that, as soon as school was over, I should start ringing doorbells, selling magazines. Whenever I said no, she would scold me.My mother and I had fought this battle almost as long as I could remember.

Psychologists at the University of Canterbury in New Zealand are studying the “shop-till-you-drop” habit as a behavioral disorder similar to compulsive eating. Compulsive shoppers frequently buy more than they can afford or more than they need, and it causes them distress(苦恼).“It becomes a problem when you are out of control,” psychology lecturer Neville Blampied said. “When you are feeling bad and blue, what do you do? Some people eat chocolate cake and ice cream. Some people take the credit card and go out to the shop.” Bank managers understand the problem because they have to deal with people who have to be persuaded to stop using their cards drawing money.Compulsive shopping was first discovered in 1915, although it was then known as monomania. Few studies have been done on the problem.An advertisement in a Christchurch paper, calling for people to take part in an experimental treatment program designed by Mr. Wilson, attracted 10 replies. But the problem, said Mr. Wilson, is “clearly not rare”. He thinks that compulsive shopping should be treated with drugs. “As psychologists we are interested in non-drug treatments for behavioral difficulties,” Mr. Wilson said.Compulsive eaters or shoppers get a kick from their habit. “Both activities provide an immediate kind of kick and you feel a bit better,” he said. “You have long-term problems, but human beings are extremely good at not seeing long-term problems and are very sensitive to short-term benefits,” he said.The aim of the treatment was to help people find better ways of managing their emotions. The program, consisting of 10 one-hour weekly lessons and two follow-up treatments, is loosely based on teaching stress management.“You often have to start to get people to correctly recognize their emotions. Not being able to know what you really feel weakens your ability to solve the problems connected with whats making you feel that way,” Mr. Wilson said.60.The compulsive shoppers will go shopping when _.A.they have lots of moneyB.they are taking drugsC.they are feeling sadD.they win a prize61. The underlined word “it” in the first paragraph most probably refers to _.A. compulsive eating B. a new psychological excuseC. the study done by Blampied D. the behavior of wild shopping62. Which of the following is considered important in treating compulsive shoppers?A. Teaching them to manage their money better.B. Teaching them to understand their emotions.C. Persuading them not to draw money from the bank.D. Treating them with right drugs.63. When the writer says that compulsive shoppers get a kick from their habit, he means that they _.A. feel distressed after their wild shopping B. feel better after treatment from psychologistsC. are better able to deal with stress problems D. have a feeling of excitement after shopping CStudents who want to study in the United States may find that their chances for financial aid are limited. They often have to pay for their education with their own savings or their familys money. A recent report from the Institute of International Education in New York looked at - school year. Colleges and universities in the United States had more than half a million foreign students. 63% of them paid for school mostly by themselves or with family help. 26% percent were supported by the school they attended.There are other sources of financial aid for international students. These include a students home government or university, or the United States government. Private sponsors, international organizations and employers may also provide support. Yet during the last school year, not many students were able to depend on any of these other sources. Current employers provided the most help. Still, they represented the main support for just four percent of international students.Those at the graduate level, however, are more likely than undergraduates to receive financial aid in the United States. More than 80% percent of foreign undergraduates depended mostly on personal and family money to pay for school last year. The same was true of less than half of graduate students. Most of the others received financial aid from their college or university in the United States. A list of American schools that offer financial aid to foreign students can be found at a useful Web site. The address is edupass.org. This site also provides information about scholarship programs. But it warns foreign students not to pay if there is any charge for scholarship application forms. You could be cheated out of your money. 64. Most foreign students depend on _ to pay for their education.A. the home universities B. personal or family money C. the American schools D. international organization65. How many sources of financial aid are mentioned in the text?A. 9 B. 3 C. 6 D. 1266. Which of the following statements is true according to the text?A. Foreign students have no chance to get money from American schools.B. Most foreign graduate students depend on their own savings.C. Edupass.org offers financial aid and scholarship information.D. Usually the present employers provide the most financial help.67. The text mainly talks about _.A. financial aid for foreign students in USB. the hard life for foreign students in USC. the variety of educational choices in USD. the disadvantages of studying in US. D Even a small reduction in salt in the diet can be a big help to the heart. A new study used a computer model to predict how just three grams less a day would affect heart disease in the United States.The result：10 fewer heart attacks. 8 fewer strokes. 4 fewer deaths. 11 fewer new cases of heart disease. And 240 billion dollars in health care savings.Researchers found it could prevent 100，000 heart attacks and 92，000 deaths every year.The study is in the New England Journal of Medicine. Kirsten Bibbins-Domingo at the University of California San Francisco was the lead author. She says people would not even notice a difference in taste with three grams， or one-half teaspoon，less salt per day. The team also i
