拓展與應(yīng)用:

  When I was about 15, we had our first serious campout(野營(yíng)). By “serious” I mean we actually brought food to cook-not food to open.

  I was a pretty normal kid growing up-I loved to camp. My only problem was I watched too many Rambo movies(蘭博影片), so a small gaggle of Rambonites and myself went out on the weekend to “rough it”. (Twinkies and Vienna sausages are bare essentials, I swear.) Actually we didn't usually set out to rough it; it's just that we always forgot most of our equipment, and no one wanted to go all the way back home just to retrieve(重新獲得) the salad forks. We learned the hard way how to compensate(補(bǔ)償) for essential items that were left in the closet. Most of the time our ideas wouldn't work, but every once in a while the stars would align just right and something actually succeeded. Here are some of those ideas that kept us young survivalists happy campers. We thought of everything; steaks, potatoes, spices, etc., enough for a couple of well-rounded meals. We forgot the pans.

    Clean water was the hardest part to accomplish. First we tried to filter the water using a sock filled with charcoal. Since we only brought one pair of socks each, the pair on our feet, the idea didn't go over too well. Our second ingenious idea was to carve a bowl in which we could put water to boil and somehow not catch on fire. After we broke two or three of our “survival” knives and our bowls still resembled a tree, we decided that our oak dining set wasn't going to happen. Finally someone recalled it's possible to boil water in a paper cup, and I realize now the guts it took to say that because I know I wouldn't want to be at the receiving end of the looks we gave him. We went though many pieces of paper and a myriad of designs (my buddy Bryon can make one fancy paper swan!) before we finally hit on one that worked. It turned out to look like a small casserole dish. We built it by taking the paper and folding it like we were gift-wrapping half a package. A small lip around the top of the “dish” kept the triangle flaps in place. The heat from the fire put condensation on the outside of the paper to keep it from burning.

   After that small victory we thought cooking the steaks would be a simple task. Our idea was to cook them like marshmallows. After sacrificing(犧牲) a couple of perfectly good steaks to the fire-gods (because the end of our sticks burned off), we realized the error of our ways. Luckily some parts of Missouri have clay for soil and we happened to be in one of those areas. So we took forked branches and made a twig latticework over the Y. All we did was pack the fork with clay, hold it over the fire for a hit, and we had ourselves custom Earthenware.

  The potatoes were even easier after we discovered the power of clay. We packed clay around those 'taters and tossed them to the side of the fire ring. After about 30 to 45 minutes (depends on the size of the potato and the size of the fire), we cracked those puppies open and had ourselves a pretty good meat-and-potatoes meal…that we had to eat with our hands, of course.

  Another camping mishap(災(zāi)禍) happened about two years later, and if you think we learned our lesson on being prepared, then you are sadly mistaken. On this incident we forgot an…umm, very important hygiene tissue(衛(wèi)生紙). And, as much as we would have liked to be “roughing it,” we just happened to schedule our trip the same time as a big poison ivy convention. Once again notebook paper saved our behinds (no pun intended). We found that if we took a couple of pieces, folded them flat and put them between our flattened(平的) hands, we could rub(磨擦) our hands together and it broke down the stiffness of the notebook paper to an almost tissue-like substance. You just had to remember to plan ahead about 5 minutes.

  On one small hunting excursion(遠(yuǎn)足) as a much older and wiser person, I went with my cousin to northern Missouri. We were so excited to go that we forget all fire-making equipment. (Unfortunately, unprepared ness is genetic.) So we were out in the middle of nowhere, in a cabin, in the middle of November. Our only savior is that we drove. The cigarette lighter was out of the question. My cousin had just bought a new GPS unit so we tossed that easy fire-builder. Our first thought, of course, was to use the gas from the truck. We both decided however, that we looked better with eyebrows, so we canned that idea. (plus, I think we were almost out of fuel). After a couple of minutes we came across an idea. We put jumper cables on the battery, then we quickly and lightly tapped the other ends together to produce sparks over a small pile of twigs and fuzz-sticks. It's important not to hold the two terminals together long because they will weld themselves together. And, if you don't get them apart, your battery will explode. I know this isn't the best way to treat your battery, but if you're in serious need of a fire, then you do what you must to stay warm. The damage to the battery from arcing is minimal and the battery will still work fine.

Questions:  

1.According to the author what they should do to get clean water?  

2.How do they cook potatoes during the camp?

閱讀理解

  Some time ago, I discovered that one of my chairs had a broken leg.I didn't think there would be any difficulty in getting it mended, as there were a whole lot of antique(古董)shops near my home.So I left home one morning carrying the chair with me.I went into the first shop expecting a friendly reception(接待).I was quite wrong.The man wouldn't even look at my chair.

  The second shop, though slightly more polite, was just the same, and the third, and the fourth-so I decided that my approach must be wrong.

  I went into the fifth shop with a plan in my mind.I placed the chair on the floor and said to the shopkeeper, “Would you like to buy a chair?” He looked it over carefully and said, “Yes , not a bad chair.How much do you want for it, sir?” “Twenty pounds ,” I said.“OK,” he said, “I'll give you twenty pounds.” “It's got a slightly broken leg, ”I said.“Yes I saw that, it's nothing.”

  Everything was going according to plan and I was getting excited.“What will you do with it?” I asked.“Oh, it will be easy to sell once the repair is done.” “I'll buy it,” I said.“What do you mean?Y ou've just sold it to me,” he said.“Yes, I know but I've changed my mind.I'm sorry, I'll give you twenty-seven pounds for it.” “You must be crazy,” he said.Then suddenly the penny dropped.“ I know what you want.You want me to repair your chair.” “ You're right,” I said.“And what would you have done if I had walked in and said, ‘ Would you mend this chair for me'?” “I wouldn't have agreed to do it ,” he said.“We don't do repairs, not enough money in it and too much trouble.But I'll mend this for you, shall we say for a five?” He was a very nice man and was greatly amused(感到有趣)by the whole thing.

       “Love your neighbor as yourself" is a saying familiar to most of us. It means that you must have he ability to love and accept yourself in order to form and keep satisfying relationship with others self-esteem means accepting yourself for who you really are, and believing that you are indeed a ivdrthwhile person who is deserving of love and respect from others.

Self-esteem is our sense of how good we feel about ourselves. It is based on our judgment of urselves, not on other people's assessment, but simply on our own. Our self-esteem is not efaendent on our talent. Some very ordinary people feel very good about themselves, while other extranordinarily high achievers hold low opintions of themselves.

Self-esteem is the primary key to long-term stress managerment. Why? The first three sourees of stress are: predictable life event, unexpected changes and build-up of daily stresscs, These are much easier to handle when we believe in ourselves, A postive, healthy self-estcem gives us the “hardiness”(強(qiáng)健) to deal with the difficulities of life, and to see them as challenges to be met, rather than threals to be feared.

The forth category of streesons is entirely the result of a low self-esteem. It is the category of stress that is most common and tiring over the long run. This kind of stress cannol be overcome, or evenchanged, until the self-exteem problems that cause it are corrected.

Learning to love yourself for who y ou are is the key to overcoming stress. Self-esteem comes form the self, and cannot be promoted by others. A person who fecls that his self-estecm comes from the approval of those around him or her is bound to self-destruct(自毀), One cannot keep the level of “performance” required to please everyone else, especially if that performance disagrees with who you are and is simply a facade that makes you popular with the world. When the applause is gone, there is nothing left.

Only those who can feel the strength of knowing who they are and those who can feel good about that will survive the stresses of life. Sef-esteem is the basis of contentment and positive living.

58. What is self-csteem?

       A.A kind of positive lifestyle.

       B.The impression we have on other people.

       C.Our sense of how good we feel about ourselves.

       D.Our understanding of how we are seen by others.

       A.Removing yourself from stressful situation.
