Stamp collecting is easy when you do it as a hobby. You don’t have to spend a lot of money on it. Sometimes stamps can be got from many sources for free.
Getting Started
If you have no stamps at all, you might want to buy a packet of 500 or 1,000 different worldwide stamps from a hobby shop or stamp dealer to get stared. One good choice is eBay. Try entering phrases like “worldwide stamps” in the searching box. However, even if you want to specialize in collecting stamps, my advice is not to spend much money on stamps in the beginning. Start off collecting stamps from many source for free until you have collected enough stamps and had enough experience.
Sorting Stamps
Assume (假设) you have some stamps and they are in paper. Before you take them from the paper, you should sort the stamps for example, by country. This is because dealing with stamps is much easier when they are on paper. When you take them off the paper, they become easy to bend, crease and tear easily.
Trimming (修剪) Stamps
Never try to take a stamp off its paper backing by pulling at it, even if it appears to be loose enough to do so. First, trim the paper around the stamp with a pair of sharp scissors making sure not to cut off the edge of the stamps. I suggest that you’d better leave a quarter inch safety area from the edge of the stamp when you trim the paper before you are good at doing it.
44. This passage is written for people who .
A. have no money to collect stamps
B. want to sell their stamps

D. spend a lot of money in buying stamps
47. What does the writer suggest NOT doing when trimming stamps?
A. Pulling at them to take them off the paper backing when they look loose.
B. Trimming the paper around the stamps with a pair of sharp scissors.
C. Leaving a quarter inch safety area from the edge of the stamp.

If you are having trouble falling asleep, you’re in good company. About 65% of Americans said they have sleeping problems a few nights each week, according to a recent study by the National Sleep Foundation. Sleeping too little can lead to a higher risk of becoming fat and getting depressed. But before you go to a doctor for advice, it’s worth examining your sleeping habits one more time. Some of your favorite evening habits may have something to do with the sleeping problems.
1. Setting a Bright Alarm Clock
The light of your bright alarm clock can prevent you from falling asleep. You can make your room as dark as possible. Cover the bright numbers with a book or consider buying a small travel clock. Your cell phone clock may also do the trick.
2. Counting Sheep
When you just can’t fall asleep, it is useless to stay in bed to count sheep. If you’ve been trying to fall asleep for more than 30 minutes, the National Sleep Foundation suggests that you get up to do some reading or watch TV for a while. Such activities will make you sleepy. Before you know it, you will be going back to bed really tired.
3. Exercising Late at Night
Daytime workouts (锻炼) will keep you full of energy for hours. That’s why you don’t want to exercise within three hours of hitting the sack. . Fierce physical activity raises your body temperature and pumps your energy level - both are bad for a good night’s sleep.

A. It’s not good to fail to fall asleep at night.
B. People in a good company often have sleeping problems.
C. There are many people who have sleeping problems.
D. You should find someone to talk to if you can’t fall asleep.

A. going back home B. going to bed
C. going to the gym D. falling asleep
51. Which of the following is NOT mentioned in the passage?
A. Why watching TV and reading books make people sleepy.
B. Why the bright alarm clock keeps you awake.
C. What to do if you can’t fall asleep after 30 minutes.
D. The bad results of getting too little sleep.

Mr. Templat was a teacher that I will never forget. I truly believe the teen years were the hardest time of my life. At that time, as a girl, I hated it when my parents asked me directly about my problems, making me more uncomfortable. I also remember many times when Mr. Templat would take me aside and talk to me. He had a special way of drawing out what the problem was. Every time he talked with me I felt better.
He had a way of making his class enjoyable. We always got the highest marks in math in our grade with his teaching. If there was a big world ball game on the radio, we could drop everything and he would put the game on so we could all enjoy it That’s the way he is.
