What do we really mean by being open？Being open is a kind of invitation to others to come in，to speak and to share. It is important in letting others get to know how we think and feel. In this way we will be understood and accepted by others. If we aren't open with others，we won't fully believe in ourselves or others.
Here are a few ways for you to be more open. First，make your outside behavior the same with your inside feelings and thoughts，Second，share how you really feel about something instead of just opinions. Third，try to change your questions into statements(陈述句) and talk in the first person so that people will understand you more easily. For example，you might say，“I feel happy that you're here，”instead of，“Are you glad that you're here？”Finally，try not to say，“I don't know.”This usually means I don't want to think about it and more.
Remember also that it is not suitable to be open with everyone in every situation. You may want to be more open with close friends，but not with people you don't know well，because you are not sure how someone else will use what they know about you. Besides，some people may not be used to too much openness. If we say everything we feel or think to them，they will feel every uncomfortable at times.
In all，being open is a good way for us to get on well with other people，but we'd better keep the balance between being open and not being too open.

Have you ever wondered what an American high school is really like? This article will describe a typical (典型的) high school and its students.
A typical American high school has several large buildings and enough space for about 1,500 students. Every student is given a locker. When students first arrive at school, they go straight to their lockers to put away or get their textbooks and to hang up their outdoor clothes. As American textbooks are expensive, students would rather loan(租借) than buy them. Students must pay back if they lost any of them.
American students have different types of school transport. They usually take a yellow school bus or walk to school if they live close enough. Sometimes their parents drive them to school. When they turn 16 years of age, most take a free driving class at school for one term. If students earn passing grades in the class and also pass their state driver’s exam, they can begin driving themselves to school.
Each day, students take six or seven classes. They must take science, math, English and social studies. They can choose art, homemaking, fashion design and other classes. In some schools students are required to take one or more of the following special classes: health education, physical education or foreign language studies. Students move to different classrooms for each subject. This is because each teacher has their own classroom. There is a five-minute break between classes, to give the students the time to hurry to their next class.
The regular school day usually ends early in the afternoon. After school more than half of the students are involved in after-school activities. These activities include sports-especially football, basketball, baseball and soccer or clubs, such as yearbook, speech, school newspaper, photograph or student government.

The 2012 London Olympic Games are around the corner. If you have the chance to visit Britain yourself，you can see at every bus stop the British people form a queue. You may have read about it，but you will still feel amazed to see it with your own eyes.
It's an amazing social behavior；it brings the British to a higher level of civilization(文明). At least that is what one German professor thinks. The professor named Joseph Heinrich and his workmates say that standing in line is the “highest form of cooperative(协作的) group behavior”．
The social rules(规则) of standing in line are also interesting. For example，you need to be able to decide the correct distance to the person in front of you. Get too close and there is a danger of entering other people's personal space. This is a serious mistake and often makes other people angry. However，when you leave too much space，the next person is likely to ask：“Are you in the queue？”This may sound polite but in fact it means：“Can't you stand in line properly？”
In no other countries can you see the one­man queue except in Britain. If a British person arrives at a bus stop and no one else is there，he will not simply wait. Instead，he stands at the head of the queue.
Tourists are often unfamiliar with local customs(习俗)，and if they do not get in line behind the British person，he or she will tell them strictly：“This is a queue.”
Though it might seem that the British people take their queues too seriously，one thing is certain：queues can save lives. In dangerous situations，standing in line has prevented them from getting very frightened.
In the serious train accident in 1999，people who were hurt formed a queue as they escaped from their trains. One writer later wrote about a polite man who let her pass with a quiet “after you”.

CCTV cameras catch action

In UK，Closed Circuit Television(CCTV)cameras are everywhere. They help the police solve crimes and keep the streets safe. But that's not all they do. They also catch people doing very stupid or smart things.
One of the videos is of a British woman Mary Bale. She clearly doesn't like cats. In 2010 she was caught on CCTV throwing one into a dustbin. The video shows Mary walking down a quiet street. All of a sudden，she notices Lola the cat jump onto a fence. Mary stops to pick up Lola and drops her into a large dustbin. Lola was saved fifteen hours later. And Mary was arrested for causing unnecessary suffering to an animal. She was fined(罚款) ￡250 and was not allowed to own pets for five years.
Another video shows“Britain's drunkest man”. He's been at a party at London's Savoy Hotel. And he'd obviously had a few too many glasses of beer. At about 2 a．m.，he was kicked out for being too drunk. So，he decided to walk home. On the way，CCTV cameras filmed him falling down stairs and crossing the roads madly...A Savoy Hotel waiter later said，“It's amazing he didn't hurt himself badly.”
Sometimes they also record smart events. Once a British band The Get Out Clause didn't have any money to make a music video. So，they came up with an unbelievable idea. They set up their instruments(乐器) and played a song in front of eight CCTV cameras. And then，according to the English Freedom of Information Act，they asked for a copy of all the footages(视频)，which they edited. The result is that a totally new music video was made，and it didn't cost them a penny.

Some people are successful, while others may not. This is because some people have some qualities, which others do not.
　　The first thing you must remember is that in order to be successful, you must have optimism(乐观). If you do not look forward to winning, you will not try as hard as those who look forward to winning. You also need to have a clear aim and a reason for doing something because motivation(动机) is a key to achieving success. If you do not have an aim, then you will not be motivated to work hard and put your performance under the microscope (显微镜) to make sure that every detail is right.
Another quality that helps people to be successful is creativity---thinking about things in a different way and wondering how others would do the same thing. Think about some successful people you know. They might be successful with a little creativity, but the most successful people are the most creative ones.
　　Reading is another to success, as it will help you learn about how other people have achieved success. If you want to learn how to set up a successful business, you should read books about people lik
